. much cooler in summer and much warmer
81 IN winter. The way that 1 came to adopt
them was rather amusing. My husband
and 1 were taking a night trip from New
York to Washington about two years ago
When began to get ready to go TO bed
4 found that my bag had been left behind,
and l couldn't imagine what ! should 90
for night dress. My husband suggested
IN a Joking way that l put on his paJam-
as and before he had time to draw a good
breath 1 was in them and in bed. They
were made of white Japanese silk, and IL
was delicious not to be bothered with
five or six yards of stiff frilling around
my neck and sleeves and down the front.
After that / kept borrowing his patamas
until he had some made for me. Those
made of cotton madras are very pretty
and cool, and this goods comes in lovely
shades as well as white. Raw silk, Japa-
nese silk and twilled silk make up beau
tifully, and the material looks just as well
when ready for the rag bag as when per-
fectly new. / use them a great deal in
summer also, but for winter wear j have
hair dozen pairs made of fine French
flannel and never know wharjt is to catch
cold. Then pajamas have another advant-
age, especially in travelling. They take
the place of wrapper in a sleeping car.
No man or woman should mind walking
through the car in pajamas, because there
is nothing in the least immodest about
them"
Dressmakers, whose customers must
have dresses whether they have any
money or not says Clara Belle in the
Cincinnati Enquirer make lot Of money
out of the necessities of their rich" pa
irons. l have in mind a Fifth avenue
madam who especially favors certain
Lady Flutterby by allowing the latter to
purchase the material for the required
gown. Madam then makes up the gown
without charge, and permits the Flutterby
to wear 1t once or even twice, after which
the gown reVerts absolutely to madame.
The Flutterby is responsible for damage,
and at the end of the season she has not
even a wardrobe to sell.
Despite such tricks, we hear good deal
about the abuses of the dressmaker, and

days it is as likely as not the customer

the case of that very beautiful Miss NJ,
who made such rich marriage, and who
afterward separated almost at once from
her husband? Dress ruined her. She was
a penniless dependent some rich rela-
tives in New York, and her wonderful
beauty attracted the attention of a dress
maker engaged in work for the rich rela-
tiVes. This dressmaker was making a
fight to get herself well known and into
rich trade, so she made a proposition to
the girl to dress her entirely. The girl
was to have everything in the world need
ed in a complete wardrobe, and the dress
maker was to supply it all, or at least
the wear of it all. and never word to
be said about the bills. The maid was to
have two seasons to get hold of a very
rich husband, and when the marriage
should be safely over then the dressmaker
would bring the bills
Well, no one could blame the girl She
accepted the offer, and dressed like a
princess for season and a half. Then
she married the man her dressmaker di
rected. and after he paid the bills he di-
vorced her. Poor thing Who, in that
case ought to be singing the song of the
shirt? Come to think of it, it was the
man who had really the worst of it. AS
Tor the dressmaker, she had nice little
pile, and her reputation and trade We're
already built up solidly, having come into

Miss NJ.
There are women in this advanced age
or civilization who are ready to hinder the
efforts of refcrmers to abolish the fun

RAJ meeting. says the New York Press,
was held a few days ago in honor of
man who had been prominent in public
work. His former colleagues and init
mate friends filled the large platform.
Among them sat his widow, weeping ST.
lently under her crepe veil. one after
another the orators of the occasion paid
tributes of eloquence at the altar of his
memory. One, more inspired and with
a longer speech than the rest followed
the history of his life from the time of
