The wrapper, pure and simple, as
house-dress is, in many circles,
among the things that were. In its
place we have the tca-gown, and
what is much more liked for young
ladies, the blouse or the matinee,
the latter being especially liked when
made up with dressy materials.
Skirts whose waists have lost their
freshness may be utilized for wear
with these fancy bodices. Skirts Of
black silk or wool are most useful,
as waists of every color go with them,
and with a little skill and careful
management the toilet may be we'll
varied.
Blue and violet are the latest mix
ture of colors for bridesmaid S cos
TUNES. The dresses are of sky blue
silk, and cream straw hats are trim
med with a profusion of violets and
a cream white bow. The combina-
ton may be new and distingue, but
it is certainly irritating to look upon.
Fancy and colored shoes are in high
favor this season. Red, white, and
gold colored ties are pretty for house
and piazza wear, and every shade of
tan, from pale buff to bronze, will be
worn. A new fancy is a buttoned
boot, made lower than the usual
style, and fastened with six large
buttons.
THE shepherdess" is one of the
fashionable hats Of the season. The
brim is wide, soft, and slightly
curved, like the old-fashioned Leg
horns, and is left to hang as it will.
The trimming consists of ostrich tips,
a big buckle, through which passes a
black velvet band, and feathers droop-
ing over the hair at one side.
Bodices are Of such divers shapes
that one may almost follow indi-
vidual fancy in selecting style.
The basque is more favored than the
round waist, although the latter are
by no means abandoned, but the
seasons fancy is the short basque
which reaches an inch or two below
the waist : line. Short, double
breasted basques with ripple hir
rufilc are extremely becoming to
slender figures.
There is every indication that the
oyerskirt will sweep all before it in
the near future; it is not rs becom-
ing as the plain skirt but with the
introduction Of the light spring
fabrics, which drape gracefully, il

made it's appearance IN fashionable
wardrobes some months ngo, Is seen
in fabrics for evening wear, and in
such as are used for any occasion.
Some of the skirts are draped and
Others are slashed at the side.
The independent waist is so much
used that the dressmaker ingenuity
is taxed to provide something differ
ent from the models of the past.
The school girl, the Office girl and
the young society woman realize its
advantages. 1t is not solely worn in
the house, but upon the street, when
wraps are discarded. These waists
are somewhat loose both in front and

There is kind of swearing, which
many people are given to, when they
are angry Instead Of giving vent to
theif feelings in oaths, they slam the
doors, kick the chairs. stamp on the
floor, throw the furniture about and
make all the noise they possibly can.
1t is practically the same thing as
swearing-springs from the same
kind of feelings exactly, but avoids
saying those awful words. They

There was an unusual futter Of rib
bons along the avenue, and the cause
Of it all is the decided adoption of
ribbons and sashes as the principal
accessory to the toilette.
Every gown had a sash, or, perhaps,
| had better say, every sash had a
gown, so voluminous were the black,
blue and colored MORE sashes. They
have all come in with the new spring
gowns, because, when the modistes
in Paris limited that they were to use
sashes. the American women in a
body demanded that every gown
should have sash. 1t is graceful
and pretty, and plain gown can be
absolutely redeemed by broad, black
MORE sash.
Satin, find, is also making its way
in sashes, and on black and white

around the slender waist of the pretty
girl who wore it and fastened in q
short bow with one long end that fell
to the bottom of her gown.

and had two long ends.

The skirt was plain, and the round
bodice had a full collar of heavy

fyaway bow. and her gloves of pale
tan.
The woman who came after her,
oh, how she hurt ones eyes following
the first perfect picture! With her
strong, magnificent face, she would
have been handsome woman, but
her gowning well, she wore blue

Even the scarlet waistcoat passed
criticism, but the hat and tie? The
tie was scarlet satin one, and, not
content with that glaring fault, she
had pinned large gold brooch on
her tie. Then her hat was ruined by
the manner in which it was tilted
back on her head and having a scarlet
flower. 20 three minutes could have
remedied these faults and made her
attractive.

The Art OF Eating.

The Bu6dio Express
"When my children get to The proper
age, I" said the man who was smoking q
briar pipe, ~ intend to have them taken
10 hand by some competent person and
given thorough instruction In the art
of eating, and, further, in the science of
finding ont what 10 eat and ordering"
"What do You mean 2" inquired the man
who sat next TO him.
IL mean this; The average American
citizen Is woefuliy deficient 10 knowledge
OF what he can get 10 eat. He falls down
when II comes to ordering. The great
majority people in this country arc
brought up frugally at home and do not
know anything but the commonest dishes.
The consequence is that when a man goes
Into n restaurant for dinner or TO hotel
he gazes heplessly al The bill OF fare and
sees many things o. which he does not
know the component parts. He dsres not
order anything that he is not sure OF, for
fear Of ridicule, and he falls back on roast
beef aud mashed potatoes. The fact Is he
dosen't know anything hut roast beef.
Same way Ia restaurant. When waiter
shoves a bill of fare under mans nose
nine times out of ten he will look II ovel
and then say Gimme a steak and some
fried potatoes Now the man who doei
this, and nearly every one of us does It,
day after day, doesn't want roast beef
He Is sick unto death of steaks and friet
potatoes. He loaths ham and eggs, ant
yet he keeps on ordering them In drearJ
and dyspeptic succession, because h,
doesn't known any better and is too prout
to confess his ignorance. It's that way
with me and I'll bet it's tibet way with
most of you. am going to relieve my
children OF all these things. They're go
ing to know what's what when 1t comes
to eating. mo roast beef dominationl
shall be my household slogan.
And the rest Of the party thought II
over and concluded that he was pretty
nearly right.

was a turkey buzzard and as there APP

sired to tickle their palate with mess OF
