MISS wlLLARp's ROMANCE.
The W. @. Il U. President Was Once
Conrted by Young MInlater

Aho W. " H. " Erehluonb was OnCe
Courted by Young Minister
The recent rumor regarding the en-
gagement Of Miss Frances 70. Willard,
president Of tho National Womans
Christian Temperance Union, to an
elderly English gentleman OF means,
who uses large part Of his annual In
come in the furthering Of reform move
ments, has recalled to the minds Of
many Of Miss Wizards friends in this
country the romance OF her early wom-
anhood. Miss Wizards devotion to the
temperance cause is by no means coeval
with the great crusade Of the early 7O's,
whose outcome was the organization
of hundreds OF Woman's Christian
Temperance Unions Miss Wizards
parents were among the pioneers Of the
great northwest, and brought up their
daughter with very strict, not to say
narrow, Views as to the use Of liquor
and tobacco. Miss Willard prepared
herself for teaching, and while pursu-
ing her studies met a young man who
was studying for the ministry and who
gave promise Of attaining great promi-
hence in his chosen calling. Their
common love Of study attracted them
to each other, and the young man felt
that in Miss Willard he had found the
one woman who, as his wife, would
help him upward and would gracefully
share the honors Of the lofty position
at which he was aiming, Nor was Miss
Wizards heart untouched, and the
young mans matrimonial hopes might
have been realized but for her dis
covery that he was addicted to the use
Of tobacco, She very promptly told
him he could choose between tobacco
and herself, and to all his pleadings
opposed the one cry;
IF you love tobacco more than you
do me find some other woman who will
tolerate such habit"
AT length he ceased to urge her, and
they went their separate ways, she to
remain single and become president Of
the National Woman's Temperance
Union, and one of the best parliament
arians in the United States, and he to
marry some one else and become one
Of the most prominent bishops of the
Methodist Episcopal church.

A New definition of Roaette.

II there is reason for complaint now
and then on the part Of the folks who
consider themselves authorities over the
change of accepted meaning in certain
words, what should the woman say who

For It Isn't slowly-establlshe custom
that does the mischief in the vocabulary
Of styles, but some freakish whim Of UNI

what term should stand for, Take
the word rosette, for example. Who

FASHION NOTES.

The plated and rosetted collars OF
chiffon are still. to be seen; In fact, the
lavish use Of this material bids fair to
last all through the summer.
The fulness In glgot sleeves is dis
posed In gathers or plaits at the shout
ders, the distended effect being attained
equally well by both modes Of ADJUST
ment.
Sleeves for plain dresses are always
worn long, sometimes too long, Some
end in the form Of the mouth OF a
blunderbuss or of flute, and are most
unbecomlng.
In a charming blouse waist the pouch
falls from pointed yoke, and the close
back Is relieved by a box plat, Box
plaits are just now conspicuous attrl-
butes Of blouses.
The full sleeve should have the lining
cut Of the same size to insure them to
lay in artistic folds, inexperienced
dressmnhers do not realize what diff
ference this will make to the fit and cor
rect droop OF the sleeves,
The demand for shirt waists exceeds
that Of any other season on record, and
they are made in a greater variety OF
materials than ever before, the latest of
which Is dimity, made up with white
linen collars and cuffs,
Another within Of fashion which
amounts to craze Is the large collar OF
lawn, batiste, lace, chiffon and embroid-
cry, which is displayed in such a diver
slty Of styles In the shops and worn over
every imaginable sort of gown in the
street.
Some Of the overcoats worn are very
unbecomlng. They are a kind Of a sac
paletot and are quite straight and al
most reaching the knees, thus resem-
bling a sort Of floating camisole. The
sleeves are very large, very long and
tight at the wrist
The new plain and figured mohairs are
gaining favor very rapidly They are
very silky in appearance, light in weight
and do not hold the dust The new
alpacas most approved of fashion are q
widely meshed material, peculiarly
glossy, but almost rough in finish.
White pique Is worn for young girls
mourning, and even for a young mar
ried woman when the mourning Is moi
deep. The white pique used for mourn
ing should be trimmed with black
Black mousseline de sole frllled very
fine should be used to trim the neck
flaps and waist, ard produces a very
pretty effect.

Outdoor Hats.

For hats to be worn in outdoor sports
the general rule is to have them Of the
dress goods or something that is dis
tinctly harmonious with 1t. For golf,
the crown is usually soft and the brim
stitched many rows around. High
loops of ribbon trim the left side. Hats
are made in this same style Of very soft
milan straw, with the brlm little
curled, and just at one side Of the front
a rosette holds a bunch Of stiff cock
plumes. Cycling hats have tam o.
shanter crowns with a narrow flexible
brlm that is often cleft just at the
front. Near the front a ribbon holds a
bunch Of quilts set at jaunty angle.
So-called steamer hats, which are also
used for any long journey and for the
mountains, are soft Selt in alpine
shape. A bow of gros grain in front
holds bunch of quilts.

An IngenIoua Device.

( A resident of Auburn, Maine, has In
vented an ingenious device for feeding
his horses, and he does it with one OF
the ordinary little alarm clocks. The
horse gets its feed grain when the
alarm goes off. For instance, II he
wants his horse to have its morning
feed of grain at o'clock, and he him
self does not care to turn out until @
o'clock, he sets his alarm for o o'clock,
and the horse gets his breakfast an
hour before his owners eyes are open.
1t is so arranged that the alarm pulls a
slide letting the grain through sluice
to the manger.

Godet Skirt Still Rules.

Women generally are greatly pleased
with the godet skirt, which has become
so widely accepted that some Of its
stiff plaits are included in the new de-
signs that are offered in the hope that
they will eventually supplant it. If
proof were needed that the godet skirt
is highly popular, it would be plentiful
from the fact that new skirt designs
are but slight alterations of the godet,
showing that the designers do not dare
to attempt a complete change. One of

As If following the lead Of fans, which
are now made in empire style, covered
all over with spangles, looking quite as
picturesque as ever a grandmother fan
could, evening head-dresses follow the
picturesque empire styles, On top Of
the head at the end Of the part stands
a big bow, with a regular wheel Of
wide-spreading ends and loops. From
under this bow falls jabot of lace
down each side of the head, over the
ears and to the shoulders, and lace
covers the back Of the hair, too. The
whole effect is quaint and generally be-
coming.

Hat Trimming

For hat trimmings tulips and other
large petaled flowers are made Of lace,
flowers being cut in many cases from
rich lace patterns that are wired and
bent into shape. The effect is charm
ingly dainty on rich hats, but the lover
of lace shoulders at the despolation Of
the lace just as many women shrink
from the whole birds for trimming.
Another new use of lace finds 1t stiff
fened by loops Of wire, gathered into
outstanding lunches and placed on hats
as in aigrette fashion.

the materials were ladys cloth, in dark

for the fan plaits. The latter gives the
