the debris from our Z o'clock dinner; and
how hard to resist the voice of the mascu-

row is already full to overlooking. We
know of one young housekeeper who, in
the earliest days of her married life, desir

dish used during Sunday, and Monday

Won't some of our charitably disposed

In some eastern countries children's hail

years of age, the girls then being consid-

coiled on the top of the head and adorned
with fresh flowers. When the great day
for cutting comes there is a grand cere.
mony and much feasting.
One who was present at royal hair cut
ting tells us that the darling of the harem
was robed in long, flowing garments Of
silk and lace, confined at the waist by a
golden girdle. Her long hair, coiled fol
the last time, was fastened with diamond
pins which cleaned and glittered among
fresh white flowers and green leaves like
pearly drops of morning dew.
There, III the presence of the ladies, hel
father and an officiating priest, surrounded
by her maidens, some 2O0.in number, she
knelt under a canopy of flowers and leaves
while prayers were chanted.
Then the beautiful tresses being I'm.
bound, her royal father, dipping his fingers
in rose water and drawing them carelessly
over her head, clipped off about an eighth
of an inch of hair and threw it into a
golden basin, depositing at the same time
on great salver, placed ready to receive
them, presents of jewels and gold.
The priest cut the next piece, her mother

origin of the Princess Gown.


A basque nowadays is quite the worst
enemy a woman has. If you have basque
in your possession the best thing you can
do with it is to bury it, for it is entirely
hoodooed out of existence by the prettier
and more favored princess gown. The
princess gown has history, wild, weird
and wonderful history, edging on to the
romantic. 1t is said that in years gone by,
when knights fought TO the death for their
ladies, when falcons carried love notes
from sweetheart to maid and poesy was in
the air, number of court ladies and gen.
tlemen were stopping in an outlying French
village previous to journey to castle of
the Emperor Louis XVI, some miles ahead.
Having been delayed by accident and find
ing it impossible to proceed, the gentlemen
Of the party went on to show their royal
freedom in the form of amusing them
selves with the village lasses.
One, prince of fortune as well as by
rank, Toasted his eyes upon a simple vine
yard keepers daughter, who had neither
face nor wealth. but possessed the most
divine form he had ever seen. She was
tall, slim, so the legend runs, willowy, like
untrammeled grass weed growing in the
meadows. He fell deeply in love with her.
He married her He took her'to his pal.
ace. He would have her dress no differ
emily from the day he met her, when she
wore a straight clinging gown devoid OF
trimming, with no garniture Though the
texture of her gowns were more elegant
the style of her dress never changed. She
became famous for her beauty of dress and
form, and in the court of France the gown
she wore was copied far and wide. 1t was
called the princess dress, and has gone by
that appellation ever since-Milwauke
