Tho Married Flirt.

The relegation Of the married firt to
her proper sphere and duties is beyond
the power of any single individual. So
ciety could make the necessary protest,
but 1T does not, for if society is any
thing it is mountaineering. 1t looks well
to it that the outside, the general public
appearance of its members, is respect
able. With faults not found out it does
not trouble itself. A charge must be
definitely made before it feels any neces-
slty to take cogniZance of it, and society
knows we'll that these married sirens
draw like magnets. Besides, each enter
tainer declares: Il am not my sisters
keeper, nor am | her inquisitor or con-
fessor. If her husband tolerates the
pretty woman's vagarics, what right
have |, what right has any one, to say u
word about herr"
But it is fact that if society frowned
on wives who arrogate to themselves the
privilege both of young girls and wives
the custom would become stale and Of
fensive. If it would cease to recognize
young married women who are on the
terms with their husbands described bv
AIillament i'll "The Way of World"
young married women would behave
themselves better 1t is generally
thought that Mir. Congreve wrote his
plays for very dissolutc age. In real
ity they seem to have been written for a
decorous, rather straitiaced generation,
If we compare it with our own.-ALrs.

FiIc Dresses ut Auction.

There was an auction sale of Il young
woman's wardrobe the other day in New
York. The young woman was the daugh-
ter of millionaire who died about six
weeks ago, the auctioneer said, and she
was disposing of her wardrobe because
she had to go into mourning. 1t is a com
mon custom i'll Europe 10 dispose Of prop
crty III this way, but it was new de-
partnre for this country The articles
sold included evening costumes by
Worth, Felix. KcrteauX and Robinson
Thirty women and rs many men attend
ed the sale. The bidding was lively, but
the prices brought were nothing i'll com
parison TO the alleged cost.
An deliberately trimmed evening cos
tune of royal purple velvet, with gold
embroidery, made by Felix OF Paris,
which originally cost, SO the auctioneer
said, $4,000, was knocked down for SO

Dressing For Shoes.

How difficult it is in winter to keep
ones feet cen presentable III appear
ancc! Sidewalks are sloppy, crosswalk;
arc muddy, and the air is so cold that il
hardens shoe leather until it is no unusual
thing for it to crack and become sorry
to look upon. Nothing can he done acti-
ally to prevent the season from telling,
upon the wearing qualities of shoes, but
Il great deal can be done TO prevent them
from becoming so badly injured rs they
might otherwise be.
When shoes have become very muddy.
the worst of the mud should be knocked
OIL with Il thin strip of hard wood, which
should be kept for the purpose. A very
stiff brush will then take off the rest of
the dirt. Now. apply Il dressing made
by mixing drains of spernaceti oil, J
pint of vinegar, 3 ounces of treaclc and
ounces OF finely powdered ivory black.
The vinegar should be added last This
will make Tie shoes look almost as well
az they did before their rough treatment.

a Woman Physicians Dress.

Perhaps the most practical walking
dress for Il woman which has ever ap-
pcarcd on the streets of San Francisco is
that Worn 10y Mrs. S. G. Smith. a phv-
sician. The costume is short princess
dress. reaching two or three inches be
low the knee. 1t is worn over trousers
very much the same as those claimed bv
the male sex. Mrs. Smith, in speaking
OF the peculiar gown to reporter. said
that she first wore the union undergar-
mcnts without any bands or compress
sionS about the waist, or in fact any
other part of the body. Over this she
wore what is commonly known to ladies'
as the good sense" waist
The trousers are made after the pat
tern of those which usually 90 with Il
lady's riding habit. The trousers are not
held up by suspendcrs, but are fastened
to the waist by safety pins. Corsets arc
not worn, and there is no strain upon
any part of the body to hold the gar
ments i'll place. The waist fits the BODY,
and the weight Of the clothes is distrib-
nted and hot sustained from the waist
or shoulders The outer garment is made
exactly MS Il princess dress, except it is
shorter, falling only few inches below
the knee and long enough to come over
the knees when sitting down. The main
idea OF the dress is to do away with the
long trailing skirts.-San Francisco Let

Costly Bathtubs.

Cleanliness is next to godliness, and
therefore the wealthy New York host
esses who arc just now indulging in ex-
quisite and costly bathtubs must be very
nearly angels. Mrs Langtry's $4,000
gold tub Is said TO be nothing to Mrs.
Paran Stevens cnamcled hand painted
porcelain tub, which is decorated in or
chids of violet and cream tints, with
etchings of Greek figures in the flowers.
Mrs. John Jacob Astor has Il peculiarly
beautiful shcll-like arrangement for her
daily dip. The edge is bound with
sponges, from which oozc 900 little
streams of warm and cold water In the
center of this delicate and luxurious Dor
der are enamelcd jasmine flowers con-
tanning the sweet essence of their genu-
inc sisters i'll the sunny south.
Mrs. Astor adores the jasmine per
fume. and the little make believe buds
and blooms evidently appreciate her
tribute, for they give forth their contents
swcetly while their charming owner
bathes. Now, Miss Helen McAllister,
daughter of the famous Ward, does
not believe III too much luxury us re-
CARDS matters of the toilet, and her
bathroom is perhaps the plaincst fur
mshed room i'll the house. She likes old
fashioned things, which is very unlike
her father, and her antique oak lathtub
has only few silver trimmings to make

A Common word just Now.

GLOW do you pronounce the name Of
the island kingdom which wants to be
annexed to the United StatesT' is Ques-
ton frequently propounded and various
ly answered nowadays. The most COM
monty accepted pronunciation, and the
one authorized by Lippincott's, Worces-
ter's, Webster's and the Century die
tionarics, is, for the name of the princi-
pal island of the group, "Hah-wi-e," the
second syllable accented, and the 81"
pronounced as in ''pine." The same ques-
ton was once asked of high caste Ha-
waiian lady, well educated in her own
and tho English language. She answered.
Tho proper pronunciation is Hah
vah-c-c. There is no w in our alpha
bet, and no letter nor cCSlbination of
letters which take the sound of w as
i'll English. The missionaries who first
translated our language found it diff
cult to pronounce or express the sound
winch Is, TO my ear, correctly conveyed
by the letter " softcned and made full.
Our "a is pronounced broad, as you pro-
nounce it in fall and our i is like the
English e The rule is to pronounce
every vowel, and as the exception to tho
rule does not affect the double Il in Ha-
wall. yon will see that the word is 'Hah-
vah-c-c'"
The insistencc upon the ''v" instead of
the ''w" sound is considered, even by some
of the we'll educated and all of the uncd-
ucatcd, as something of an affcctation
and one hears "Hah-vah-e-c" on tho
islands. instead of "Hah-wah-c," about
as often as "vahse' instead of vase" in
American society.-New York Sun.

The Queens Offering to the Fair.

1t is extremely courteous in the Eng
lish queen and her daughters to send as
their offering to the Columbian fair
specimens Of their handiwork. The queen
sends bit of linen spun and woven by
herself, and some sketches, and water
colors. Princess Christian contributes
embroidery and sailors jersey knitted
by herself. 4 richly carved chair of her
own handiwork is sent by the Princess
of Wales. and her daughters have exc
cuted specimens of beaten brass work 10

The Australian ballot system, while a
good reform in the main, has several
features which need amending before it
can be accepted as an almost perfect and
honest mode of voting. AS it now stands.
thousands Of voters have been disfran
chiscd by the misrepresentation of not be-
ing allowed to stamp opposite candi-
dates name after having once stamped
Tie party emblem. Let there be but one
way of voting, by stamping the square
by the side Of each person that YOU wish
TO vote for. a voter once instructed TO
stamp the square TO the left of each per-
son that he wished to vote for will not
only not confuse, but actually expedite
voting. Another feature Of the Law
which should he changed is the ease witt,
which Il partisan board can throw OH
ballots as defective. AS protection il
the right of voting is secrecy, so should
the ballot be protected after it is cast, So
long as the intent of the voter can be as
certained. -Noblesvillc Ledger.
