The Perfectly Dressed Woman.

The attire of perfectly dressed woman,
says an authority, is original without ec-
centricity, personal to herself, yet conform
ing to the latest fashions, attractive, yet I'M
demonstrative, developing to the utmost
her own peculiar charms. Further, the
warning is given that the economical dress
er may permit light colored fabrics to pass
through the hands of an inferior dress
maker, but dark gowns, whether intended
for day or evening wear, should bear the
stamp of first class manufacture, which is
merely carrying out the well understood
principle that it is the rich who can profit
by certain economies, not the less fortunate
who really need them. There is such q
thing as being too poor to wear any but
real lace

False EIodesty.

Never teach false modesty. How exquis.
itely absurd to teach girl that beauty is of
no value, dress of no usel Beauty is Of
value; her whole prospects and happiness in
life may often depend upon new gown or
q becoming bonnet; il she has five grains of
common sense, she will find this out. The
great thing is to teach her their proper
value.-Sidney Smith.
