papers Of a recently deceased member Of

Evidenoe That the Royal Ladies' of Eng.
land no somstimea.


Tho late Mr.. Worth, tho Parisian king
Of dressmalers, once said that It fire.
quently took him ~ long as three years
to educate the public up to one Of his
fashions, and TO have it adopted. he Of
course has set a great many fashions in
his time, but tho dressmalyers are not ro-
sponsible for most OF the changes that
take place.
It is a simpler thing for q man like
the Prince Of Wales, who is generally
admitted to bo the best dressed gentle
man in Europe, 90 change fashion In
mems clothing than It is for lady in
society to change the fashion Of the time,
or to bring in new one. But any Of the
recognized fashion leaders, such as tho
Duchess Of Sutherland, the Countess Of
Dudley, Lady Brooke, the Countess Gros-
yenOr on Mrs CORVALLIS West, can, II
they persist long enough. bring In =
fashion which will soon become general
ly popular.
For instance, tho Duchess OF Portland,
after her marriage, had strong inclina-
tion for Malmaison carnations as button
holes, and wore them on every possible
occasion. Before that time they were
not much sought after, but very soon all
the florists in Bond street and Regent
street had a great display Of them in
their windows
The Princess Of Wales is not fashion
softer, but is one of those most sensible
ladies who favor comfortable costumes
and tailor made gowns, and who does
not run to the extreme modes. She
dresses, however, with excellent taste.
Another matter in which the royal
family arc very conservative is theway in
which they wear their hnir. At the time
when the "bun chignon" came in not
one Of the young princesses adopted it,
although it was extremely fashionable.
Curled fringes, as Is we'll known, arc
very popular with the royal family.
Sometimes the fashions are introduced
quite by chance Afew years ago, when
a we'll known beauty was married to q
young nobleman. the bride decreed that
her bridesmaids should wear dark velvet
hats with ostrich feathers. At first ev-
cry one was very much surprised, but
the idea caught ON, and during 1892 al
two-thirds Of the fashionable weddings
dark velvet hats were worn with light
dresses. .--Pittsburg Dispatch.

The Bristol (England) Mercury says
that while Paderewski, tho pianist, was

nourteously worded letter asking to al

Ia return for "this great treat" a dou-

An Excessive Amount Of II IL Declared -

A writer in q monthly review, dis
cussing Mr. Balfour's Foundations Of
Belief, takes occasion TO say that solid
books, dealing with the great problems
Of mind and morals, are no longer read
except by few specialists That an ex-
elusive diet of novel reading is extreme
" debilitating is proved by one series Of
facts which are observable in every part
Of the civilized world Men and women
among the reading classes no longer
marry in anything like such numbers as
they formerly did, and the reason IL
that they have no pluck in them to faco
lives OF Spartan simplicity on limited
incomes.
The result is disastrous to women, In
asmuch as II prevents many Of them
ever marrying at all For IL woman
does not marry when she Is young very
few mon care to marry her when she 10
middle agcd. Men marry In middle life,
but they do not marry women OF their
own age. They marry yonng women.
Tho physiological moral is that IL would
be vastly better for both men and wom-
en- to read novels for recreation only,
and when at work to read solid books
which really exercise and develop the
brain. In practice the result Of this
would be that both men ana women
would have better and stronger brains
They would marry earlier and with more
courage. They would face the world
more hopefully and successfully, and
they would become the parents Of whole.
