WoMAN,s PART IN LIES BATTLE

According to the United States census
2.647. 1877 women are age workers. Inat
is however. a meagre showing of the
working women of the land. h mil
lions of mothers of the land are among
the land's best workers, as are the men
who use shovels and planes and plows
and drive engines. The wife who a
home bright and cheerful and ministers
to the wants of the family, at all hours
and seasons, does as much as 1.-THE father
and husband who works his eight and ten
hours, and holds to the money. he earns
as If he alone had earned It. There
are multitudes of men who fail to APP

ant paths during the past year, SO we
ma trust ourselves to her guidance
with an easy mind and wait just a
..wee'' for the desired end. To colors
a glorious impartialtty is displayed, and
individual taste and complexion may be
fully consulted.
The new tailor gowns run to simple
ity and serge. Some Of the newest show
vests that are single breasted and free
from revers. The skirts are plain, and,
as a rule, the ensemble is as severe as
possible. But there are tailor made
dresses that show directoire revers,
draped sleeves and eyen draped skirts
for women who prefer them.
Dinner bodices are an important fea-
ture ct the present time. They are won
derfully convenient and economical as
we'll, for they add so many changes {
an otherwise scant wardrobe. One han
some silk skirt will support V
bodicas, and one finds oneself ves.
fttingly, becomingly and quite elegant
" attired. The New York Sun illus
trates three charming examples.
One is of black MORE, with a fringe OF
lets about the neck, which is decollete,
headed with ostrich feathers with large
puffs to the elbow, and another is of heavy
white satin, the pointed bodice opened
over q chemisette of rose point; the
broad collar, turned away from the open
neck, of emerald green, lined with the
white silk, large draped sleeves of the
satin, fitting closely from the elbow to
the wrist; a very girlish bodice, dainty
and sweet, made of willow green silk
and chiffon; a loose folded revers Of the
open bodice, and upon the other a rib
bon fastened low ON the right side, with
a bow carried across to the opposite
shoulder with a full bow Of the ribbon.
Full draped sleeevs complete this pretty
waist At a very select yachting party

shorter bodices come in basques will go
out entirely. Already they are on the
wane. And not much loss either, for
they add nothing, but really take away
the grace of the figure.
Hats have superseded bonnets with
many women, the rage being for large
hats. Many of the large hats are tied
under the chin with ribbons. The pretty
little ladybugs are initiated and used
to catch ribbon and lace In place. The
arrangement Of feathers on a hat is
quite an art in itself, for some of them

banishes self and man lives in touch
with his fellow, glorified of the divine
benediction of love. He is nearest to
divinity who gets farthest from self,
and the gifts of Christmas-tide are so
many pledges of disinterested esteem
for the recipients. A time is this when
care rolls away like a scroll in the fire,
and mirth and good will become the
all-pervading genii of the household.
Love and joy cross the threshold and
blessing upon all beneath The roof
Peace covers the dear ones as a man

fulfllment of the promise made by the
herald of God in the glowing words:
Il bring you glad tidings of great joy,
