Not for the OppOsite Sex, But for Their
Own.
The idea that ladies who lavish enor-
nous sums annually in personal decora-
tions dress to fascinatc their husbands,
lovers, or man in the aggregate, is a
vulgar error. A fashionable woman is
not half as anxious to win the admira-
ton Of the men as to provoke the envy
of her own sex. The truth is that gen.
tlemen, as a rule, know very little about
the commercial value of female attire,
md Except when they are called upon
TO pay the bills) care less
An elegant and becoming toilet, how.
ever Inexpensive, generally satisfies
them.
Not 81 our first family bellies and
dashing dowagers. Cost is their stand
ard of excellence in costume. And what
consummate sumptuary critics they are!
No trademan is better judge of the
articles in which he deals than the lady
Of fashion is of all the articles her sis
ters wear. With . single sidelong
glance, rapid. keen and searching, she
can reckon up" the habiliments of q
rival almost to shilling.
No pawnbrokcr. however accustomed
to gauge the price of costly trumpery.
could come nearer the mark. Imita.
ton cashmeres, simulated lace and
false jewelry do not deceive her for an
instant. She sees through the cheat as
easily as banker detects . forged note.
and sncers inwardly at the vain attempt
to cope with her genuine extravagance.
She triumphs in the reflection that all
her splendors are sterling, and that her
''set," sharp-eyed as herself, can dis
tinguish between cheap dne-ladyism
and the ruinous grandeur it is intended
to cope with as well as she can.
But mole-eyed man sees not the diff.
ference unless it Is pointed out TO him.
Il II not perfectly obvious then that the
richly-bedight goddssses of fashion
dress to provoke envy in each other rath-
ar than to command manly worship?
OF course they like to Be- admired BY
men, but to Be envied BY women II

THE LATEST IN SLEEVES.

They are All Important snd Just New
Very Unique snd Conspicuous.
Verify this season is the apotheosis Of
the dress sleeve completed. A few years
ago this now important feature of the
gown was q simple, close, unassuming
little essential of the gown, like the
gown or the baleuse underneath the
skirt You could almost make IL out Of
the fragments left after the gown was
cut. 1t fitted the arm Is close as the
skirts now fit the hips. ~ close - the
skin itsclf-ycs, closer. for you can
bend your arm in the skin, and you
couldn't bend il in those sleeves. The
fitting of those little, close sleeves was
the betc noir of dressmakers and tailors,
and required more time and patience
than the shaping of the boiise IL
self. But gradually the sleeve loosen
ed. its severe little buttoned wrist was
relieved with . cuff or fold Of trim
ming, and so it grew and broadened
and heightened and heightened until
now the old order changes. You must
plan your sleeve first, and out Of tho
remnants fashion your skirt SO slximpy
and snug and close. As to the material.
it may be anything from choicest lacs
and gauze to rich brecsde. heavy with
Jewels, no matter what the gown H. !
saw . plain rough gray wool on the
avenue recently with sleeves Of black
gauzc puffcd over yellow silk. II you
have an old close sleeve, cut il out Of
the armhole in some jagged rough
fashion, slash II and scallop it. and put
in q great big puff of something ss en-
tirely different from il - possible. Then
put two deep plaitings around II just
below the elbow. . frill Of lace st the
wrist, and all Of the other girls will be
trying to copy IL - the work Of clever
est of French modistes. Slit IN old
sleeve anywhere and let in . pu2 or
rufae or excresence Of any kind with
any excuse for being. and you have dis
tinctly . new sleeve.-N. Y. Sun.
