remark: THE breezy frankness of this

ate haste each evening at II. Doubtless
they meet on the doc rsteps of the houses
where the symposia are held and chat
and jest together over the charms and
whims of their ladies. just as their own
coachmen used to DO in the simple and
good old days when husbands and wife
went to balls together, or played hearts.

those evenings are long past. The Ia

docile but freezing Buffalo husbands
have now is the remembrance that il
those same old days ladies sometimes
fell in love with coachnaen. and so may
yet smile with affection upon hus-
bands.'

Mrs. Henrotin. the president of the
General Federation of Woman's Clubs,
and an influential member of the Chi

Of admitting to membership the colored
woman who is knocking at its door. Ac-
cording to report, she has only one dis
ability, that of race, but her proposed
membership IS raising row of dimen-
sions in the club In taking this liberal
stand, Mrs. Henrotin rebukes the narrow
minded sisters, who, last May, in Phila-
delphia, opposed her candidacy for the
first office cf the federation because she
is a Roman Catholic. This, too, in the
face of the most strongly defined rules
of most women s clubs that religion and
politics shall invariably be tabooed sub

A new terror is in store for the host
ess. She will be obliged to indulge in
Egyptian teas this season, for London
society, through the lady who has gained
much notoriety as the original of
'Dodo,'' Mrs. Asquith, has set the seal
of her approval upon them. The neces-

are walls covered with gray canvas to
produce a stone effect, palm leaves,
grasses, Egyptian pottery, oriental lamps
and a hostess gowned a la Cleopatra.
The china Of the tea table must be deco
rated with lotus flowers, the table stand
ing in a secluded corner, fitted with a
low, wide seat. Cleopatra house gowns
may be very decided, or they may be
modernized according to the ideas of the

ger in that young mans mind while he
is-well, somewhere else, about his
business maybe, and perhaps searching
for some pleasure that offers greater en-
Elements than cup of tea. But the
wise virgin Of the nineteenth century
does not let her lamp go out, nor does
she go to sleep by the wayside. She
keeps the tea urn simmering beside a
bright open fire, and she wears such
pretty gown. By and by the young man
arises and goes back to the pretty girl in
her soft gown, her floating ribbons, her
flmy laces, and he looks at her through
the vapor from his teacup and thinks
how restful and homelike it all is and
how nice it would be to have her pour
out tea for him every day-and we will
leave the rest to the reader and tell Of
some of the gowns whose beauty has
brought the tagging bridegroom to his
senses.
One was made of deep red crepon.
with heavy c1inkles The front was laid
in one wide hox plait, falling from the
bust to the feet. The back was en- prin-
cesse and very full and in a demitrain.
The large pulled sleeves reached only to
the elbows and were there finished with
upright cuffs, made of vandyl1ed accor-
dion plated pink silk muslin. There
was deep pelerine collar, made of the
muslin, plated and bordered with red
velvet ribbon, two rows of it, and very
narrow. The plump arms were left bare,
and the whole gown formed a point of
brightness and cheer. No wonder the
trousseau is in course of preparation.
Another gown for a young lady, while
not quite SO aadaciOus as the other, has
proved equaliy,effective. 1t was of blue
and lemon colored crepon, two toned III
it's weave. The skirt was ample, but
plain; the waist plain Spencer, with
q ribbon belt of maize grosgrain, with
a line of dark blue down each edge
There was lace figaro back. In front
there was a cascade of lace to the knees
and on each side Of that hung a loop and
end of the ribbon, little lower than the
lace The stock was of maize crepe lisse
fulled on. The sleeves were balloon puffs
of the crepon, with two long loops ON
each shoulder, with the ends caught in
with the lower part of the puff. The
whole arrangement was highly novel
and very stylish while still being a
''girl's dress in all its simple elegance.
/ There was another dainty tea gown.
made of white cashmere, with swan s
down cuffs and collar, and line of
swan s down two inches wide down
the front on each side of a pale blue

The up to date Gotham girl is now
collecting waist belts, not ordinary
belts of leather, but costly jeweled af-
fairs, to be worn with the short, round
bodice of the evening gowns. Something
entirely new is waist belt formed of
rosettes of yellow valenciennes lace
mounted on white satin. In the center
of each rosette an imitation turquoise
nestles Another waist belt is of black
satin, over which swarm of golden
butteries are embroidered.

MIL Girls, Attire.

A new effort at woman 5 dress reform
is being made by the managers of cot
ton mills at Saco, Me. Because of the
accidents that have occurred through
the hair or dress of operatives being
caught in the machinery it has been or
dered that the girls shall not wear their
hair hanging down, but must coil it
close to the head, and the waists and
sleeves of their dresses must be close
fitting, the latter, of course, being op-
posed to anything and everything at
present stylish.
