bodice Of white silk has a deep bib OF
pale pink chiffon bordered with band
of the lace, while over the shoulders
black ribbons outlined with the pas
isementerie appear again, and the
full sleeves are lined with pink which
shimmers softly through the folds Of
white crepon.
Another has a plain skirt of black
satin with bodice Of cream colored lace.
Not specially new combination, but
Its charm lies in it's elegant simplicity.
The sleeves are OF lace and a deep
square collar of black satin outlines
the shoulders, while at one corner of
this is large bunch of pink roses and
heliotrope French flowers of wonderful
beauty, if not Of fragrance.
A smart street costume, which
pleased me- much, was of prune col
ored cloth, the bodice in coat shape
and lined throughout with silk had a
cape and revers of biscuit-colored
cloth. AT the neck is to DE worn the
latest novelty in cravats. which takes
the form of a double band of ribbon
tying at either side in a bow setting
upwards. These new cravats, by the
way, are of the inevitable watered
ribbon, the great popularity of which
shows no immediate sign of decreas-
ing.
A careful inspection of the costumes
of this importer, as well as of several
others visited. discloses the fact that
Dame Fashion proposes that all our
gowns tins year shall be decIed with
butter-colored lace combined with
passementerie; that colored velvet
bands shall obtain to vast extent:
also that sleeves must not diminish in
size and are to be wired at the top To
give them the desired spread" that
the MORE ribbon bow is to hang from
every neck. and lastly that colored
pearls, iridescent beads and silk en-
broideries shall be used with lavish
hand. She is a liberal woman, this
Fashion of ours, with no thoughts of
banking accounts TO stay her desires.
Nothing is too extravagant 10 excite
her wishes. and, once excited, they must
be gratifed.

young ladies who run after alleged
statesmen for the improper purpose Of
getting an Office which they do not
really need frequently take that step.
The congressman realize this fact, and
some of them are mean enough TO take
advantage of it.
There is one side Of the ofice-seek-
ing business which is really pathetic.
The old hall of representatives, which
il now used as a semi-art gallery,
wherein the statues of famous states,
men are placed by the various states,
has its daily history of many lives
Speaker Reed converted one corner of
this room into a ladies' reception room.
During the sessions of congress women
In all stages Of need sit day after day,
sending their cards to members of the
house whose influence they are anx-
ious to obtain. The doorkeepers come
back with statements. often false, to
the effect that the representative is
mot present to-day" or ''out of his
scat" Some congressman send word
to come tomorrow" merely for the
purpose of putting off the visitors,
who, lacking care fare, trudge wear
lily home to their boarding places,
to return again and again in
pursuit of their hopeless quest
In the public reception room Of
the senate similar scenes are enacted,
but the senators usually treat the
women better. They tell them frank
iy whether they can or cannot get
places for them instead Of keeping
them in fruitless suspense.
The representatives. however. are
less skilled In diplomacy, or else are
afraid to offend some family in their
districts, and when they cannot get
Offices for these applicants they dodge
them. Very often ladies go to the
house galleries, sit there looking for
their representatives until they ap-
pear, and then hasten to the reception
room, send in their cards, and receive
the information from the messengers or
pages that ''he was here for a moment,
but he had gone uptown again" The
ladies return to the galleries and look
down upon the members there and see
their representatives chatting with a
fellow member. or writing letters at
their deelts. Many a woman under
these circumstances is moved to tears
and leaves the capitol sobbing aloud
1t is thus made plain to her that her
statesman friend wants nothing to do
with her, and will do nothing for her.
During and Immediately after the
war very many women of improper be-
havior found places in the executive
departments. This fact became notori-
Gus, and thousands of people until this
day believe that ladies in the depart
ments are no better than they should
be. But this is an erroneous impress
sion The percentage of improperly
behaved women in the departments is
very small. AS soon as their character
is made known. and it always Is,
they are dismissed. no matter who in
dorsss them. SMITH D. FRY.

RELIGION OF THE PEASANT.
Catholicism In the Rural Districts of tho
French Republic.

Catholicism In the Rural Districts of the
French Republic
Catholic customs relating to the dead
are strictly observed Each newly.
built house is blessed by the priest;
masses are said to prevent the cattle
from having the plague. Crosses
blessed on "Rogation" days are planted
In the fields, and professions are made
through the fields in order to draw the
blessing of God on the harvest Then
there is no department in France
which has not its pilgrimages and
''pardons. These details show that
Catholicism is still deeply rooted in the
minds of the French peasantry.
When, however, one has excepted
old men and women and children, ono
finds that the rest OF the community
profess little or no religion. They
rarely go to church except at Christ
mas. Easter, the Assumption of the Ho-
ly Virgin, and All Saints day. and if
they do go it is to meet their friends
rather than from religious motives OF
course these men never go to confess
sion. Yet they are not hos
tile to the priest What he
says and does is matter
of Indifference to them. But a curious
fact is that these very men would OBJ
ject to their daughters being married
before the mayor only; not that they
are quite sure it would be wrong not to
be married by the priest, but it is an
old custom practiced by all. The same

is of any good. but, after all, it can do
them no harm; and. as it is the only
remedy they have. they may as well
try it. There are no entirely civil mar.
riages or burials in that country, even
in Indifferent families.
The generation which has grown up
under the republic is more markedly
indifferent, yet still it is not markedly
hostile. 1t simply takes no account of
the priest; that is all OF course there
are some exceptions, but the average
Frenchman is not much of fanatic
either way. At the same time / must
qualify these observations by saying
that some regions are far more Catholic
than others In the north of France,
Flanders, Artois Picardy, Normandy
and in Vendee people are more deeply
attached to Catholicism than in the
other parts of France. The church is
powerfully supported by noble families
and by rich families of the middle class,

from religious motives -Contemporary

The empire gown is bound to play an
important part in our wardrobes this
season. 1t is not the gown Of yester-
day, but comes to us shorn of all its
monstrosities. and tho latest designs
proclaim beauty and grace in every
curve and fold. While it is not
claimed for them that they work a
wondrous transformation on the female
form divine, they are undoubtedly ex-
tremely becoming to the majority of
women. AS a further advantage it

1 had a glimpse of very pretty
wardrobe the other day for woman
who has place quite near town and
who entertains a great many house par
ties during the summer. Her gowns for
morning were all light pink or pale
blue or of the sheerest white muslin.
l remember one Of dotted swiss, with
rose pink ribbons run through puff
ings, that was particularly pretty.
For evening wear the gowns were
made of crepe or silk with ruffies of
lace about the low-cut neck and guam
titles of ribbon tied in bows and loops
placed on the waist and left side of the
skirt. The style of these dresses was
very like the winter dinner gown, only
the effect was much lighter and cooler.
What l liked best was lovely pink
silk empire gown made with large
Vatican plait and big pulled sleeves
reaching little below the elbow.
From underneath the Vatican plait
came two bands of white MORE rib
bon which passed beneath the bust
and tied at one side in huge bow with
long ends reaching nearly to the bot
tom of the gown.
In this same wardrobe was an after
noon dress, very pretty, indeed, and of
which was allowed a picture. This
1fOck was maze Oh cTepOu ia Mcult-
erranean blue, so called because 1t in
no way resembles the hue of the heav

the side in the most approved manner,
while across the bottom of the front
was placed a scant ruffle of lace head

ST. LOUIS, July 3.-Today,
though the railroad strike situa-

change in the early hours, the
first ominous threat came in the
shape of orders to the first regi-
ment Missouri National Guard to
place itself in readiness to move
upon receipt OF further in
structions. Though so far there
has been no suspicion Of
violence there is no way of de-
termining what may happen when
the privilege of the strikers return
ing to work expires today. So far
as the railroad service is concerned
there is little change. Outbound
passenger trains got away without
delay, but freight is still exactly in
the same shape as last night.
