interesting fashion. She was looking
at silk remnants thrown upon the
seventeen cents counter to get them
out OF the way. Among the soiled and
tumbled bits she found fresh new
piece of twenty-five yards. 1t was
China silk, worth seventy cents yard
or Whereabouts, but nobody who had
happened into that sop had liked its
color. So it was reduced and lay in
disgrace among the bargains. 1t was
OF pale heliotrope shade with pinky
tinge, and the woman bought it and
sent for clever dressmaler. The
clever dressmaker said: Where did
you find such a rare and exquisite tone?
1t will be hard to match; it must have
cost you mint of money"
The woman smiled in her heart and
said nothing. She let the clever dress
maker scour the town for appropriate
ribbons and velvets and laces, and
when the Napoleon robe was complete
she put 1t on, turned up the lights,
figured out the cost at eleven dollars
and twenty-five cents, sank back into
an easy chair and murmured with
sigh of content: ut is divine"
=. S.-This little episode is not to be
construed as defense of bargain-hunt-
ing.
Things are coming to such a pass
that it is hard to tell tea robe from q
nightgown. That is why the girl In
the picture carries a candle. 1t is a
mark OF distinction. The fashionable
nightgown is of white wash silk or
white lawn. The lawn is very much
the better material. 1t has q full
skirt, sometimes accordion plated, and
1t Is likelier than not to have accordion
plated sleeves. Then it has very
deep lace collar frilled about the
shoulders and a great bow Of ribbon
to tie at the throat and fall in long
ends. A woman who has such night
gown must be in danger of somnam-
bulism.
The fashionable halter may be
thought by some to be as mad this
spring as the proverb would suggest.
The millinery of the moment shows q
weird combination of fur and flowers,
feathers and lace, while diamonds gilt
ter, with unholy joy elate" amid BIOS
SONS of the most brilliant hues.
The toque is the prevailing model,
and one of the newest l have seen is of
pale pink straw, coarsely woven, with a
brim of jet sequins, and with three
roses forming a triangle on top, a black
lace aigrette starting up behind. A
wide, black lace hat with lisse frill
round the.brim is covered with petunias.

through which the green shows. The
large full sleeves have cuffs that turn
over the hand.
A dress without steels and without
lining is of pale rose satin of princess
cut, with bertha of duchess lace and
lace headings to the sleeves. So loose
~ is this yoke cut that it is all a matter
of adjusting the drawing string wheth-
er you wear it high necked or decollete.
A little detail of construction, insig-
nificant apparently; but can any genu-
Inc Partisan novelty beat that?
To secure an even more exquisite fit
of tailor-made skirt, or indeed of any
other, over the hips, the sartorial sages
now employ a hip seam, running from
the point of the hip backward and for
ward, with slight downward trend
for few inches-of course, usually
just one breadth. In cutting this seam
slight conveXity is allowed for, so
that the breadth when prepared with
this transverse seam would not lie fiat
upon a table, but full up" in the mid
die of the cross seam.
Do you see how very little fullness
here would improve the set of the skirt
and make its hang at the edge matter
of less uncertainty?
The newest collarettes are little frills
of velvet in threes; say, of petunia and
two greens to give an effect like flowers

How to Make Swallow Rows

Swallow bows are now taking the
place of butterfly bows, and are made
in this way: Take stiff glace ribbon
two or three inches wide and cut one
end with long, sharp points like a
swallows tail. Place loop below,
which represents the thickness of the
birds body, and then two side ends cut
In diagonal points for the wings. With
a rosette as finish this makes very
effective bow. A charming hat trimmed
with two of these swallow bows, one
on either side, was of black leghorn,
with fluted brim and full red June
rose in each flute.

portance is without its training school.
Few people realize the value of slillful
nursing. 1t is essential to the success
of every hospital, and there is no ply
Stefan who would rot be glad to have
such care for all his patients. A hos
pital-trained nurse is a luxury beyond
the majority of people, and she earns
anywhere from $21 week upward;
this outside her board, lodging and
washing, of course.
The height of good nursing consists
in what is done for the patients COM
fort outside of the doctors orders; the
ready tact, patience, that peculiar pow
er of soothing pain and suffering, the
knowing just what to do at just the
right time. The nurse must have good,
sound health; be truthful, honest,
trained In habits Of neatness and
punctuality, kind-hearted and refined.

Banquets Which Are Spread Upon a Yer.
liable Cloth of Gold.
An effective lunch cloth seen recently
was Of the thickest, smoothest, finest
damask Of pure gold color. 1t was
dappled with leafy design, also In the
gold, the pattern being perceived only
by the wearing of the fabric No other
color was permitted upon the table, the
service being of dead white porcelain,
while the flowers were lilies of the val
ley. The whole effect was table COW
cred with priceless samite that Tenny-
son. talks so much about on a sheet
from the Field of the Cloth of Gold.
Unless hostess can indulge in such
rare. magnificence, however, plain
white luncheon cloth is always in the
best taste. just now 1t is the fad to
have these hemstitched and bor-
dered with drawn-work, though not
too deliberately, as anything pro-
nounced, unless it be Of the most ele-
giant description, is out of place upon
the table. A fairly good quality of
damask, az yards long and with neat
little drawn-work border, may be pur-
chased for S22,25. For those who pre-
fer colored luncheon cloths there are
extremely attractive ones in dull blue,
old rose and yellow, and these have
cheapness as well as durability to rec
ommend them, for they cost but $40 or
f13 in the two and a half and three
yard lengths. The latest and most
popular design in table linen of all sorts
Is the scroll pattern.-N. Y. World.

THE MODEL HOSTESS.
her Two Essential Requisites Are Tact
and Calmness.

and Calmness.
A woman may possess wealth untold,
She may have the kindest of hearts and
the brightest of minds, but unless she
has absolute control of her feelings
there will be sometime in her career as
hostess that she will display annoyance
or furry, and the contagion spreading
TO her guests will cause an otherwise
successful entertainment to die out in
undisguised failure.
model hostess must, to all appear
ances, be made of stone, so far as disa.
greeable happenings are concerned.
Even though guest or careless waiter
inadvertently breaks bit of china
which can never be replaced, she must
smile on as though the loss of the entire
set would but emphasize the pleasure
Of the evening Her well-bred calm
inspires her guests with a feeling of
confidence, and though in her heart
she may be very dubious about certain
important details of her dinner or
dance, if she does not show her anxiety
everything will pass off to happy con-
clusion.
A flurried hostess or nervous host,
whose countenances but lily conceal
the worry they feel, can do more to-
ward making the guests uncomfortable
than if the soup were served stone cold
and the salad dressing were ruined by
u too bountiful quantity of vinegar.
An imperturbable calm and q ready
tact are the two important factors in
the making of model hostess Secure
these by hook or crook and you need
never fear for the success of any of
your entertainments. - Philadelphia

from any first-class training school Is
guarantee that the graduate can earn
livelihood and in most cases a very
handsome one.
This is profession to which many of
the noblest and most intellectual women
ofthe past century have given their lives.
Who has not heard of Florence Night
ingale? Here is her recommendation
of nursing: II give one-quarter of a
century's European experience when |
say that the happiest people, the fond
est of their occupation, the most thank
full for their lives, are in my opinion
those engaged in sick nursing" Surely
it is no small privilege where work is so
well suited to woman's capacity and
one that Is free from close competition.
1t is mistake to think that it is
waste of time and money to obtain an
education before entering upon hospital
work. The cultivation of the mind is
of no less value to a trained nurse than
TO women engaged in other pursuits,
and well-educated, even a college,
educated woman, can do more, and gain
more in consequences Nursing pays
better than almost any other work in
which women are at the present time
engaged; but let no young woman take
it up solely on this account. 1t must
in itself possess an attraction. The
successful nurse must first love the la
Dor. 1t is not easy, but very hard at
first, when one is mastering the princi-
pies which lie at the basis of all good
nursing. There ought to be natural
ability for nursing and strong inclina-
ton to help the sick combined at the
start, but after that earnest, steady
work will count for more than any So
called genius The nurse whose heart
is not in her work will pass many a
weary day from which a little fore
thought would have saved her. But if
girl thinks that she has liking and
taste for the work, then by all means
let her go In and use every opportunity
to fit herself for it.
Twenty-one years ago 1t was said
that no refined, educated woman could
go through the training required to
make her trained nurse, while to-day

Nursing as profession is not a new
field for women, yet on inquiry 1t has
been found that the demand for trained
nurses far exceeds the supply. This
fact ought to be of interest to those
who are asking: "What can a woman
do TO earn her own living?" Many Of
tho professions have become SO over

q position are very small unless the
young woman has influence to work in

found the same treatment good for in

himself-even in winter-of all cloth

refrigerated, and then draw the cover
over him and go to sleep. "He would
