A STORY WITH A MORAL,
Mutual Secrecy About the Family Dia.
monds in a New York Home

Mutual Secrecy About the Family Dia.
monds in n New York Home.
There is young and handsome
couple in New York city whose names
are constantly in the society columns
of the newspapers. Yhey are extrava-
giant beyond their means and they are
both wealthy by inheritance. They
give entertainments and dinners, and
keep a stable fit for chase.
One day, two years ago, John Druck-
err, a diamond broker, was visited bv
the husband. who explained the object
OF his call by producing his wife's dia-
mond necklace, with a request that
the real stones be purchased for two
thousand dollars and limitations substi-
:uted. No one, he said, would ever be
the wiser; his position and wealth
would Danish the suspicion of fraud,
and he was temporarily money starved.
The dealer asked day to consider,
retaining the necklace. In the inter
val he la id the case before the wifc's
mother, wealthy and indulgent wom-
an; and asked her advice or the mat
ter. She at once gave Kim S., 900, tell
ing him to hand the amount to the hus-
band. giving him at the same time the
real stones for the limitations. This
course was accordingly followed. and
the young husband blew the money
in with n royal grace.
Six months afterward the wife called
upon my friend, the diamond dealer.
and, like female Antony. asked for
the loan of ears. Her proposition was
the sale of the diamonds in Aer neck
lace for 81. 800, and their substitution
by false stones. She was little
short and needed ready money
A days time was taken to consider
this matter. and visit was paid as be-
fore to the mother. The old lady fur
nished the money, which was paid to
the wife, and the necklace returned os-
tensibly filed with spurious stones.
The wife still wears that necklace to
reception and theater, and the pair
have each dead secret unknown to
the world and to each other. The point
of it is imitation diamonds.-N. Y.

In another hall Julia Ward Howe, Of
Massachusetts. was presiding over a
meetin in which Laura Ormiston
Chant Of England, and some very
celebrated foreigners from Iceland,
Russia and Switzerland were reading
papers upon ''woman's anti-epium ur-
gency committees" In fourth hall,

But not one of these things, nor all
of them com bined. drew one sixth of
the audience which focked to Hall
Ill to hear talk up on dress reform.
1t was packed to the doors and way
beyond.
1t must be confessed that talks upon
dress are interesting, alike to men
and women, especially when such
talks arc presented by young and beau
tiful women. To get a whole bunch of
such women together, each with
hobby and each riding it well. is
most unusual rare and delightful
treat
On this occasion all the leaders of
advanced dress reform were present
and had something to say. Henrietta
Russell was there in funny dove-col-
ored dress which seemed to fall en-
tirely from the shoulders, but which
was becoming to the wearer, although,
as woman who stood just behind the
reporters table remarked, it did not
make her look as though she had:hung
bed spread upon her back and table
spread upon her front 1t was Mrs.
Russell who had talked with Mr.. Glad
stone about dress
There was also Jenness Miller in a
very natty, rainy-day costume which
came to the calves of her legs and was
met by leggings of navy blue just the

decidedly leaned over toward his leg
as he lay in an attitude of repose, he
tried a series Of experiments with
long pole, placing it in such position
that the leaves would have to turn
away from the light in order TO reach
it. In every case he found that the
tendrils set themselves visibly toward
the pole, and in few hours had twined
themselves closely around it.

GLADSTONE FAVORS
DRESS REFORM.
What He Told Henrietta Russell
y About It. -

Jenness Miller, Mrs. Helen Ecob and
Lucy ston. Have tho Cordial
- a Corporation OF the
= Grand Old Elan.
News comes from over the sea that
Premier Gladstone favors a reform in
the female dress of the day. He ex-
pressed his views TO one Of our dress
reformers and she is spreading them
abroad to the people.
After all, it is dress that interes Is
women. They will focls to a hall 50
listen to a talk on dress and dress re-
form. when they would not go to hear
anything else in tho world They
will go through rain or shine, snow or
blow.
It was very funny to observe how
strong the attraction OF dress was at
the congress of representative women
which has just been held rs one Of the
side shows Of the Worlds Fair The
news that Mr. Gladstone was to be
quoted did not lessen the crowd.
The second day of the congress. there
were meetings in full blast in five halls
of the great Memorial Art palace on
the lake front. In one of the halls,
that Of Washington, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, OF New York, and Dr. Jennie
Lozier, the president of Sorosis,
were lecturing. In the hall Of Column
bus, Lille Devereux Blake and the
Coun tess of A berdeen, were discussing
''Wcmen as an actual force in politics"

JENNEss MILLER'S RAINY DAY COSTUME,
Short, stout women appear more
slender, and slender women more
graceful. Those without shoulders are
given shoulder draperies, while big
hips and shoulders are treated to a
criss-cross drapery down the front and
back, taking away the hip effect and
giving that narrowness which is sighed

A TRICK OF THE TRADE EXPOSED.

"A VI 1hADE LAfOSLD
The idea forsall these things was OBJ
tanned from the marble draperies upon
great master pieces ofstatuary. Dress
reformers are in the habit of going to
art galleries to get new styles, just as
New York dressmakers go to Paris.
And Paris dressmakers go to the master,
Worth.
When dress reformer is asked for a
style she looks her woman over care
fully and promises to suggest in a few
days what one to adopt. Then she
goes to the nearest art gallery and stud
les pictures and statuary until she
finds something to suit the case of
the woman who wants a graceful
gown
Octavia Bates and Francis Letter,
both seekers for the beautiful in dress
draperies declare they have spent days
in the Louvre in an agony of SOUL try
ing to find something adapted to a
woman who had applied to them to
know what to wear and how to wear
It, Perhaps the woman had an impos-
sible figure and then the case would be
so much the worse, though both of
these dress-reformers assert that even
impossible figures look better in i'm
