and first in a few hours, not only becoming,
but well fitting. The sweetest milliner you
ever talked to can't toss up bonnet like an
omeet; and the consequence is the disappointed
women are complaining of dressmakers and
milliners, and calling them everything that is
dissagreeable, covering the alphabet of un-
pleasant words from Alpha to Omega.
THE KIND OF WOMEN MEN LIKE.
A disappointed woman is always a great mis-
take; that is, the one who shows her disappont-
ment. She will cry-ergo, her nose will be red.
She will be cross-ergO, her digestion will get
out of order. She will sulk-ergO, the man unto
whom her heart goeth out will desert her for
another woman whose face is wreathed with
smiles, even if it is framed in winter bonnet.
Men do like woman to be prettlly dressed, but,
above all things they prefer that she should
be pleasant. So that when it comes to ques-
tion of sulky women in new clothes, or pleas
ant women in old clothes, they are certain to
choose the latter. Men hate sulkiness in
women. They count it as their own preroga-
tive. Personally have come to the conclusion
that what man really likes is a thoroughly
good, healthy, violent temper that wears itself
out in words, and is ready to be sorry after
ward. There is a type of man who likes dishes
thrown at him. but he is special rather than
general There is another kind that is best
governed by violent attack of Mysteries, but
with this ssort of man the game not worth the
hysteria--is better than the sulks
THE ORCHID AMONG WOMEN.
The orchid show has been and gone. 1t was
interesting and curious at the same time. The
curious part was to see how the women natu-
rally drifted to the most expensive orchids, and
these were by no means the most beautiful.
Do you know that the first bunch of orchids
ever carried in New York City was borne by
that m ost perfect of gentlewomen, Mrs. Thomas

Meagher was one of the three sisters of whom
Thaclieray spoke in his letters as being not
only the prettiest, but the most charming and
natural in their manners of any among the
American women he had met. Two of this
trinity of beauties are dead-Mrs. Barlow and
Mrs Crawford-but Mrs. Meagher is as lovely
and as charming to-day as when Thaekeray
saw her, and is that best type of the flower gar
den of American women, gentle, dignified, and
considerate. the orchid among women, the gen.

HOW EASTER BRIDES WILL LOOK.
The Easter weddings are going to be many in
number but all of kind. The bride just now
is after the French style. She looks as if her
widest dissipation had been view of the 20
illogical gardens and the only books she had
ever read had been those illustrated by Kate
! Greenaway. She is married in gown high in
the neck, aud with sleeves that come, in Yalois
fashion, down over her hands. She carries a
white ivory or kid prayer-book framed in sill
yer, and she looks as if she were frightened to
death mot because she was getting married
but because she is among so many people foI
the first time in her life. AS picture nothing
could be more absolutely delightful, and it has
the effect of causing the wicked old men about
town to weep bitterly, presumably for thoil
lost innocence.
