The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1893-03-26


Mr.. Willie Martin of Augusta spent a
few days In Savannah last week.
Savannah is undeniably worthy Of its
reputation for hospitality and cordial and
lloeral-minded fellowship, aud this is re-
marked on BY those who have been enter
tanned abroad, as well as in many cities in
America.
AT the memorial bazaar in Richmond the
Florida department. has made arrangements
to have representation of the old gateway
OF st. Augustine. This will be made of
coquina, which has been sent from st.
Augustine for that purpose. This will be a
very taking feature and very interesting,
as the gates are historic as we'll as pictuF-
esque and decidedly quaint. A miniature
Spanish fort would also be a unique thing,
but the fort could scarcely be done Justice
to and is inimiteble
In large cities the business women are be-
coming an important factor, aud forms
quite percentage Of the population. They
are having houses built for their co-opera-
tive living; forming clubs for their mutual
benefit, and these clubs are comfortable and
even sometimes handsome and luxurious.
but OF course these are frequented by pro-
tessional or talented women, who make
enough to live better than the class of
women who have TO work and are willing
aud anxious TO work, but don't know how.
Sometimes theJ know how TO work, but
don't know how to save. This may be done
IN clothing by observing the following: "a
woman who is in business should, IN select
ing the goods for Business suit, .yoid all
figured or striped materials. Let the stuff
be as plain as possible so that the dress may
be in no way conspicuous That is the great
thing to be avoided. Fanclfully dressed
women are not popular with their employ
ers. They waste great deal of time 10 at
tending to their 1nery, and moreover il is an
expensive method for themselves" If a
woman ia going into business. vanity must be
left out Of she question, and common sense
and convenience considered. And here is
another important little tip to remember:
Don't neglect TO put pockets in the dress,
and put them where they can be easily got
at. In the shirt, over the hips, is the most
convenient place to put them. A good way
to finish them is with pointed lapel which
buttons over the pocket. We southerners
are always ready to follow the fads and
fashions of the metropolis, and there is
much good to be gained by 80 doing in
other things than fashions. Some OF the
customs are equally good. That of independ-
emit women, for instance. If they don't please
any one else, they do their brothers, who
fair for a strong, healthy woman TO let her
brother support her. If she does not want
somebody else's bFDther to take the respon~
sibility then she ought to be willing to do it
herself.
