THE WAYS OF WOMAN FAIR.
Fads, Fanoies and Fashions That
lelight the Gentler Sex

When the matinee girl or the woman OF the
world wants to get up "a quiet still " she
pops lump of Loaf sugar IN her mouth, and
at the end her eyes are as bright as head
lights, she can make her tongue work like
rattle and she feels as buoyant as a feather.
These bitter drops are home made. Toilet
waters and triple extracts ot scent are Sc
lectcd for the sugar bath. One popular brand
is All cologne. The cube is given all 1t VIII
hold, dried and carried to the play like any
harmless bonbon. The trick is one for which
the captivating southern girl has real weak

/ flowers seen In the Royal Aquarium was quite
unique. Not only were the cut flowers very
beautiful, bn, also the groups Of plants in
pots were very remarkable. Chrysant henllms
require very careful arranging, otherwise the
effect Is not satisfactory. and the merits OF
the individual plants are lost. There is much
diversity ~ opinion regarding the iucuryed
blossoms aud the Japanese but II Is said by
competent authorities that no true florist
cares very much for the Japanese variety
which Is so highly priced by non-conno ois,eurs.
Kate Field, who lately visited London, says

lounly about the naming, numbering and

her time training caD-driyers In the way they
