FRENCH KNAcK IN DRESS.

The French woman excels all other
women in her attention to the details
of dress. She will live on one meal a
day, if necessary, to save the money to
always have neat shoes and gloves.
Her dress may be of cheap material,
but no dirt spots are allowed to stay
on it, no buttons are left to dangle for
want of timely thread, and she never
wears shabby shoes or gloves. A New
Yorker, just home from abroad, at
tended a tea dressed in q Partisan
gown and bonnet. She destroyed the
whole effect of her costume by wearing
a pair of shoes that looked as weather.
worn as cobbler's Sign. She was not
brilliant enough to distract attention
from her clothes. ANY woman can Ill
afford to wear shabby shoessnd gloves.
Even tie interesting woman with
thoughts more attractive than dress
will not be less charming II perfectly
booted and gloved.
