The silk underskirt should be cut bell

drapery net is hung over this, four
widths being enough to arrange grace
fully without too much front fullness. as
plain effects are still most desirable.
This should be half an inch shorter than
the silk skirt, as nets are sure to sag a
little. The prettiest waist for this dress
is short corsage, pointed front and

Fashionable Footwear.

Shoes and stockings must match this
year. Black stockings are of course
always in good taste, but even dressers
who are not extreme carry their tan and
gray suede low shoes with them when
they go to buy stockings. There are a
great variety of shades in browns and
tans, in silk, fine cotton and Isle, SO that
every imaginable color in shoes may be
matched. The insteps and ankles are
embroidered in stripes and small figures,
and among these bowknots are popular
Prussian blue stockings, in three or four
tones, are also to be had with shoes and
slippers to match, and they do not, after
the first glance, look any more pro-
nounced than tans.
Red-brick red-is a favorite color,
and the shoes to go with the set are
either plain and unrelieved or done with
foxing and heels Of black patent
leather. Of course gray and tan are the
only colors that can be worn in town.
The country or seashore permit of any
hue desired, and the more bizarre the
better Either they match the prevail
ing tint of the costume or they contrast
strongly. Sometimes the gloves, shoes
and stockings are alike and of differ
ent color from the rest of the costume.
This is thought very yeffective.-St Louis
Republic.

The Franchise for EngIishwomen.


Lady Henry Somerset's visit to Amer
lea has already had great results. 1t has
brought home to her own mind an over
whelming conviction that women must
play an active and prominent part in all
moral reforms, and that they can never
fully exert their legitimate influence un-
less they enjoy the parliamentary as well
as the municipal franchise. Under the
influence of this conviction Lady Henry
has effected something like revolution
in the British Women's Temperance as
sociation. She has persuaded them to
favor women's suffrage, with view to
more active temperance effort than tenn
perance women in this country have
hitherto made. Under the same deep
conviction she herself has consented to
be one Of the progressive candidates for
the executive committee of the Ladies'
Liberal National association.
The progressive candidates are all in
favor of making women's suffrage an es-
sential part of the work of the organiza-
tion. Lady Henry Somerset has seen
that women in America have in some
directions rendered greater services to
temperance reform and other moral
movements than the women of England
have hitherto attempted. There is every
prospect that under her wise and power
full initiative we are about to see great
development of women's work in the
direction of Christian legislation.

Der of wealthy women who desired that
their sons should have the benefit of ex-

The Summer Corset,

The seasons corset is an emancipation
from an annoyance at least. Many a
woman has been prevented from in
dulging her fancy in the freshness and
daintiness Of wash gowns because con-
scious that those materials are too thin
to hide the outline of the corset across
the back from shoulder to shoulder
This year we have a low cut corset,
scarce fitting up on to the bust and
equally low behind. Then we have a
guimpe of stout coutille fitted snugly
over the shoulders and over the bust and
coming down an inch below the top of
the corset. This is laced in front, and
is boned at the back, down the front,
and very thin bone curved over the
bust exactly as the French decollete cor.
sage of ball gown is boned.
The result? No corset line across the
back, no sticking of thin cotton mate
rails to moist shoulders, and no frown oi
anxiety lest one is not presenting an al
together satisfactory "back view" How
trim woman ought to look in her SNUG
bodice these first warm days when sh'

4 NEW Occupation for Won en-.

It is becoming the custom in all retail
dry goods establishments to employ
person whose sole business is to write
the advertisements used day by day,
also to get up all pamphlets, circulars,
posters, catalogues, in fact, to see to all
the advertisement matter used by the
house. In the few cases known to the
writer where women have filed this i'm
portant place they have been eminently
successful. It is work peculiarly fitted
to women, for if there is Sone thing in
this world that womankind agree in
loving it certainly is dry goods, and it is
second nature to talk about them. And
writing dry goods advertisements is
simply talking about dry goods.
Of course the writer must know what
to say, how to say it, and above al
when enough has been said; must b.
able to say much in few words and
make those words ''telling;" must exer
her power of ingenuity to put her an
nouncements in attractive forms tina

they glance over the paper. The chic
object of the advertisement is to plac
the business written Of before the reade
in the best possible light. All this come
with a very little experience, a littl
study of the matter. Some familiarit
of the routine will soon put one entirel
at ease.-Virginia Frazee in Ladie,

New york's Best Known widow.

Probably the most interesting and
best known widow in this city is Mrs.
Hicks-Lord, whose fame extends over
the sea and across other continents. Her
wealth, her gowns, her diamonds and
her marriages have long been discussed,
and the history of her life reads like a
romance. Her second marriage, when
as the Widow Hicks she was welded to
old Mr.. Lord, caused no end of talk, and
gave the newspapers at the time a
chance to publish column after column.
Mr.. Lord was very old and very rich,
and his family did not like the idea of
having any portion of his immense es-
tate go out of their hands. She lives
royalty and spends money in the same
manner, Until few years ago she en-
tertained lavishly. Mrs. Hicks-Lord has
one Of the finest collections of jewels in
this country, her famous "stomacher"
of diamonds being one of the most valu-
able in the world. 1t is worth thousands
of dollars. Mrs. Hicks-Lord's present
home on Washington square, East, was
once the home of the late General
George B. Mcclellan, and is one of the
many fine old mansions in that aristo-
cratic neighborhood.-New York Press.

The Time to clean House.

The work of getting away to the sea-
shore is not an easy one. Aside from
the mere task of engaging an abiding
place for the summer outing, the labor
of preparing for the summer often really
overtaxes the strength of many house
keepers, especially as it is too often be-
gun some time after the campaign Of
spring cleaning. Others very unwisely
postpone the "spring cleaning" to the
autumn months, when the family have
returned from their summer vacation
