The "COlorless" Woman.

It is curious thing that the colorless
woman-the woman with no mind of her
own, that generally goes in for gowns
to match. Inotice that she usually af
fects the most insipid, most uninterest-
ing shades of gray, fawny grays and
drabs. Her taste in dress, like her char
acter, is indefinite. She is vague wom-
an. !"Good, sweet, and amiable," no
doubt, though there is not much virtue
in being good if you have not the capac-
ity for being bad, but monotonous like
her clothes. This is the type of person
who looks upon cigarette smoking among
ladies as "disgracefuW-not from con.
yiction, of course, for she couldn't think
seriously for a couple Of minutes about
anything, but because it isn't conven
tional. The person who habitually says
"disgraceful" always amuses me.-Mis'
Matalini in Pail Mall Budget.

Gracious Act of Many Women.

1t was a bold move for man to make
in q woman's meeting to ask for the re-
moval of all hats and allow the few men
in the rear to see the four talented
actresses wiz occupied the platform ut
the woman's congress, but it succeeded.
The spring hats were beautiful as flower
gardens, and they added to the attract
iveness Of those who wore them, but wo-
men were here in the majority, and they
listened to the appears of meek minor
ity present only by sufferanee. Mime.
Modjeska declared that women must
not only be taught independence, but
responsibility" and the ladies felt that
they were responsible for the spread Of
their gospel to the outer circle of chairs
in the hall, where few men were spec
tators. 1t was good beginning and in
dicates that when the women are in the
majority at the theaters they will be as
gracious to the men as the men are to
them now and remove their hats to let
every one see the stage.-Chicago Inter

Beneflt For q swell Girl.

The daughter of retired millionaire
has an allowance Of Sc, 600 a year for pin
money. Out of it she is expected to pay
for her clothes and other personal ex-
penses such as gloves candy, books and
matinee tickets One would imagine that
she could manage to squeeze along on
her income, particularly as she has no
board 'topay. But she couldn't In fact,
abe found herself very heavily in debt to
her dressmaker one fine morning. She
struggled on for few months keeping
her troubles to herself and trying to
economize. Finally crisis was reached.
She had "nothing to wear" and could
not order any new dresses without pay
ing something on account. To make the
matter worse the dressmaker began
pressing,her for her money.
She went to her father. He refused to
help her. She appealed to her brother.
Hesympathized, but he could do moth
ing, as he was deeper in debt than his
sister. Then she went again to her
father. This Is substantially what the
cruel parent said:
NNo, my child, will not help you pay
any Of your debts. Your allowance is
large enough to supply you with every
thing you require. If you go beyond it
you must suffer the consequences. Gt

always believed that women are better

are. Each of the two women's clubs
possesses advantages that the other does
not enjoy. Sorosis has the advantage Of

Two Organizations of Noble Women.

The organizations Colonial Danes
Of America and Daughters of American
Revolution-are so much alike that many
get them mixed. Both are important
socially, the former rather more exclu
sive probably than the latter. The one
was organized in May, 1890, by Mrs.
Martha j. Lamb; the other followed in
June. There has been so much clashing
in one way and another, chiefly between
the Virginian and New York chapters
of the Society of Colonial Danes, that
members of the other society are glad to
have it understood that the two organ
izations are distinct and separate.
The provisions of the Danes constitu-
ton are not so explicit but that many
Misunderstanding have sprung up con-
cerning whether the ancestors of those
applying for admittance were sufficient
ly distinguished to answer the require
ments. More than this, the president,
Mrs. John X. Van Rensselaer,, took il
upon herself to sit in Judgment upon the
social and ancestral claims of those
wishing to be members, which, added te
| the sneering remarks of the Virginia
women about Dutch merchants, have
kept the society stirred up much of th'
time.
