THE WOMAN OF THE EMPIRE.

Quaint Fads and Fsncies of the Ladies' Of

'"Che empire has become this season one
of the watchwords of the woman of fashion.
The following extracts are therefore inter.
esting as setting forth sonie Of the ideas
and customs of the woman of that time.
They are from a sketch of the Great Ladies'
Of the First EMPIRE" by French writer:
A ''divine" smile would have curled the
lips of the elegant Partisan lady had any
body lectured her on the advisability OF
walking exercise during the morning and in
the open air. A fashionable woman's feet
at that time were crippled like the feet Of
the Chinese woman. and she could only
walk from one room into the other. Be-
sides, 1t would have been infinitely dis
agreeable to her to be seen in public raising
dust or splashing through the mud, her
object was rather never to commit any Sin
against the customs of society, and never
to be original except where the laws OF
politeness permitted it.
In the unwritten law of the French patri-
clans of old there was clause which for
babe woman to appear outside her own
house, except it were in the solemn splendor
of her carriage. Her footmen wore gold

Those New Years Resolutions.

Those New Years Resolutions.
Twas a set of resolutions,
AS fine as fine could be.
And signed in painstaking fashion
By Nettie and Joe and Bee;
And last in the list was written,
In letters broad and dark,
To look as grand as the others,
"Miss Baby Grace, her marki'
we'll try all ways to help mother;
We won't be selfish to each other;
Well say kind words to every one;
We won't tie Pussy's feet for fun:
We won't be cross and snarly, too,
And all the good we can we'll do"
ats just as easy to keep them,"
The children gayly cried,
But mamma, with smile, made answer,
WYATT, darlings, till you're tried"
And truly the glad. bright New Year
Wasn't his birthday old,
When three little sorrowful faces
A sorrowful story told.
.And how are your resolutions2"
We asked of the Baby Grace,
Who stood with smile Of wonder
On her dear little dimpled face.
Quick came the merry answer
She never an instant lacked
" don't fink much of ems broken,
But dess ems about all cracked"

Man and Editor Not The Same.

Ella Wheeler Wilcox, who divides her time
between dress reform and poetry. tells her
friends OF recent experience she had with a
prominent editor, says the New York Press
The editor had criticised somewhat severely a
book OF Mrs. Wilcox's poems. She could bear
the most scathing comments on her ideas OF
reform from the western school of reformers
headed by Mrs. Col. Parker Of Chicago and
even not whimper when her enemies fatty
stated that her new gowns, on which she
prided herself, looked like inflated and abbre-
waited mother Hubbards,' - but wnen the editor
aSSailed her poetry, g was hurt. The editor
was Charles 4. Dana. When Mrs. Wilcox issued
a new book of poems she determined to see what
a personal appeal would do. The first concil.
iatory move was q polite note to Mr.. Dana
asking for a short interview, and saying that
she wanted six minutes Of his time 10 all two
minutes for her entrance, two minutes for her
errand and two minutes Tor her exit. Mr. Dana,
in characteristic answer, granted the favor.
The poet and the editor met at the appointed
time MIR. Dana was bland, Mrs. Wilcox was

following Sunday appeared column editorial

liant poetess Not only did Mr.. Dana dismiss
the poetry with the most scathing and scorch-
ing condemnation for its salacous aud prurient
quality, but even the illustrations were de-
nouncad. Mrs. Wilcox declares that she shall
not again seek Justice by calling on her judge
beforehand,
