NEW YORK, March 10, 1922.
Special Correspondence OF The Gazette.
The cry for long time has been that
woman was taking the bread out of mans
mouth, by assuming his occupations. 1t
was said that she could write as well as, or
better than he did; that as politician she
was far above him; that rs diplomat she
would have settled the Behring sea trouble
long ago, and Il ever she got hold of the
money in the treasury she would govern it
in way that would please all the United
States. But, after great deal of thinking
land when woman thinks, she thinks hard
enough to burst the buttons OF her frock),
she has come to the conclusion that there is
a new occupation open TO man. It IS that
of lady's maid. And the reason for its ex-
istence is what every knowing person would
call the shirt habit; that is to say. that the
masculine shirt, pure and simple. has be-
come necessity in the wardrobe OF every
woman.
WOMAN WITH A.sTIFF SHIRT.
Its assumption, however, involves
struggle. This is the way it all came
about: Lovely woman, who this year
wishes to look particularly smart, and to
have an air OF decided trimness. goes TO O
shirtmaker, a really rightly shirtmaker,
and announces, with a swxgger, that she
has come to be measured for some shirts
Ten to one she never had a shirt on before
The whole time that vre.ched man is
measuring her she tells him that those that
she got in London were not lifted that way.
and that they measured her differently in
Paris. These shirts are made exactly like
those belonging to the head OF the family.
with one exception; that Is, they have
string run in the back, which pulls them
into place; they open down the trout. have
the cuffs aud collars regularly on them,
and, altogether. when they come home,
look Just as smart as possible: and the
being of this century, charges !

Lille Langtry's bed is a Chippendale
one. The draperies are dove-colored bro
cade, and the upper curtains are of boiling
cloth. those at the top being embroidered in
peoples, and those at the foot in morning
glories. Her dressing table is draped with
boiling cloth, embroidered in many-hued
flowers, and the curtains on each side of
