stand before the altar and plight her
troth. All, but how pretty it is! MY
eyes rest lovingly upon it as she slips
into it. It is made of the softest and
richest of white silk, and at the bottom
of the skirt is wide ruffle of lace,
caught every once in awhile with a
small bowknot. The court train spreads
out in the back in all its magnificcncc.
The waist is made very soft and is
brought around in small folds fastened
under the arm. A deep fall of lace, high
on each shoulder, is brought down to q
V in the back and the front. The fair
maid is modest, and so she wears a high
collar that conceals the line Of her love-
~ throat Her veil is of tullc and falls
gently down upon the train and spreads
out in the back like a halo, and she
looks fit for king.
Her bridesmaids suit her well, they
are so simple in their gowning. Their
dresses are of white, too, but corduroy,
and they fall plain and straight to the
ground with no adornment whatsoever.
The waists are also made plain and
adorned with deep lace yoke. They
wear long white sashcs tied in a big
bow at the front, little to one side.
Their hats are their browning glory, big
and soft and white, and dropping slight
ly over their faces, trimmed at the back
with great punches of purple violets and
white tips.
| did not see the trousseau of this
bride, but know she was a sensible
girl, and know about what she would
have in it.
I'm sure there would be one gray
dress, at any rate, and here is pretty
way to have it made. Skirt plain, with
short train and row of gray passe-
snentcric at the bottom; the bodice cut
at the top in rounded tabs, like deep
scallops, which are also trimmed with
passemcnteric and the yoke striped with
it also. 1t must be very soft trimming,
OF it will spoil the effect. Have the
sleeves plain and tight, with big loose
over-puff at the top, also striped with
the passementerie.
Or here is another gray costume: A
fine material, dotted with very small
black and gray silk polka dots, a deep
black silk fringe at the bottom, with

Good Looks.

Coon looks are more than skin deep,
depending upon healthy condition Of
all the vital organs. If the liver be in
active, you have bilious look, If your
stomach be disordered you have a
dyspeptic look, and If your Kidneys be
affected you have pinched look. Sc
cure good health and you will have good
looks. Electric Bitters is the great al
terative and tonic acts directly on those
vital organs. Cures pimples, blotches,
boils and gives good complexion. Sold

A Sweet Rule of Life.

know a woman who approaches nearer
my ideal Of lovely womanhood than almost
any other type that ever came under my
notice. She is low voiced, earnest, sweet
hearted, merciful and wise She can laugh
as heartily (when thereis anything to laugh
about) as a robin can sing when the apple
tree flowers are in the air, but she never
giggles, neither does she smile at what
causes discontinue to others. would be
hardly more surprised to see her sharpen
ing up butcher knife to behead an or
phan than would be to find her laughing
because somebody had slipped on an icy
sidewalk or stumbled along an uneven
way, and yet she is nothing of prude or
bigot Her home is the gathering place of
Bohemians of the better type, and her par
lors are not too fine for tobacco smoke nor
the grim disorder of good comradeship
bouts. One day asked this woman what
was the secret of her beautiful life, q life
that attracted all and repelled none,
After laughing little at the question
she told me story. "Once," said she, II
was called upon to watch day and night by
what threatened to be the deathbed of a
darling child. That boy was dearer to me
than my life, and every hope of my heart
was centered in him; simply could not let
him die. neither slept nor ate; 1 devoted
every moment Of my time, every pulse beat
of my energy to nursing him, and yet he
seemed to be going steadily down to death.
Finally one night just got down ON my
knees and told the Lord that if he would
only let my darling live would solemnly
covenant never again to do thing, little
or big, which myself thought was wrong.
Mind you, didn't promise to consult my
neighbors or my best friends or anybody
else, or do what might be considered un-
worthy. simply said, Here, dear Lord
is my hand upon it that will live up to
my own individual consciousness Of what
is best and noblest to do And have
tried ever since to keep my covenant. u

"Oh, dear, it's very expensive to be sen
siblef" Lady Jane looked up with sym.
pathetic smile as filed away my bills, and
said, ut would be less expensive If more
people were sensible"
This oracular reply, from girlish lips,
drove all thoughts of dollars and cents out
of my mind. Yes if more people were SEN
sible, or rather, if more sensible people
would show their sense by insisting upon
having things as they want them, instead
of taking them as they find them; if more
people who cen afford it would take time
to have thirgs made to- order, when the
ready made articles are all in one absurd
style; and if the real taste and wishes OF
the majority could be impressed upon
manufacturers by repeated demands,
then revolution might be brought about,
reaching even farther than the domain OF
dress.
As it is now, when pretty Perrette trips
into the shoe shop, she reluctantly buys
her dancing shoes with high heels, because
there is nothing to be had with low heels
save something heavy or homely. Her
mamma follows and buys walking shoes
with toothpick pointed toes, against her
judgment and love of comfort. Neither Of
them is vain or ignorant woman. One
cannot wait for her slippers to be made,
and the other hesitates over the extra ex-
pense of shoes made to order.
Perrette's oldest sister comes into lunch
con with a frown on her face. She has
been to the dressmaker's and finds that
nothing costs like simplicity" The col
lege girl cousin chimes in, and saws her
sensible waists costs twice as much as the
abandoned corsetl
Lady Jane is right. If more people would
make grace and comfort, style and good
service, not only part of their creed but
their daily demand in shopping, then it
would be lesss expensive to be sensible
