For the other class of dear girls,

more refined, it remains for you, while
still in it, to be looking always for
something better, and the girl with the
right stuff at heart and at brain, while
faithfully taking UP her duties where
she is, will keep her eyes open for an
other and better, higher step, taking
those steps promptly, until she reaches
her rightful place; that is, the one for
which her training, and her good judg-
ment, and her common sense, and her
practical forces, fit her. That working
girl who finds herself in the wrong
place and takes it for granted she is
always to remain there, could make no
greater mistake. She should be eager
for her own advancement, and no girl
need remain low down when she has

of them too difficult for the clever
home dressmaker.
The lace trimmed gown is of rather
coarse spring wool goods in a deep,
warm brown, and it has a deep waist
band and stock collar of heliotrope
velvet, making one of the most popu
lar of the new combinations. The lace
which trims it is a heavy ecru variety
and is web lace, which makes it much
cheaper and more convenient, to use
for the sleeves and straps. Three-quar-
tiers or whole yard is a sufficient pat
tern.
The sleeves are snug fitting nearly
to the shoulder, where a puff of goods
is let into a pointed cut. The sleeve
is very long and finished in a point
over the hand with a frill of hello
trope silk for finish. The lace is laid
over a lining of heliotrope, either silk
or percaline according to ones purse.
The straight shoulder straps of lace
are also over heliotrope. They are eX-
actly alike, front and back, and extend
under the wide belt.
The hat is of brown straw with a
high crown trimmed with heliotrope
ribbon ending in a bow in front with a
buckle of fancy stones.
An entirely different effect in sleeves
is shown in another sketch, the gown
being of dark blue canvas, trimmed
narrow black velvet ribbon.
The skirt of che gown is of moderate
width and has two ruff1es about the
bottom and two half way to the waist.
The waist is gathered in simple
fashion and has a wide waistband Of
bias black satin, fastening with hooks
and eyes at one side. The stock col
lar is a straight band of the blue cloth
with several rows of black velvet rib
bon decorating it. There is no bow or
rosette, for they have gone out of
style, and it fastens with hooks at the
back.
The sleeves are small and close fit
ting all the way to the shoulder, ex-
actly like the old fashioned sleeves Of
eight or ten years ago. AT the top are
two ruff1es of black silk edged with
black velvet ribbon, and the entire
close sleeve is decorated with rows of
the velvet an inch apart.
The hat is a jaunty little turban
of black straw trimmed with a mass
of upright black satin bows, twist
of red velvet surrounding the crown

eyes open for whatever better and
brighter things life may have in store.
Many people believe that the girl VINO
works is not the girl who reads. But
we know better than that, for the
nest earnest readers of many of the
best things that are written for the
young are the girls who have but little
time to read-WhOse reading is not con-
fired to the details of the horrible SEN
sations of the daily journals and the
class of novels that, sOiled and tumbled,
are found quite as commonly in the
cars and on the ferry boats in the
hands of boys. Closer contact with the
two classes would SO uplift the latter
that too much cannot be said for those
organizations whose aim is TO bring
them nearer to each other.
Some one asks of the effect upon
character of a wage-earner's life, and
We want to add that even down in this
class of Wage-edrnerS that we have
mentioned, we believe that they are
acquiring habits of punctuality, of pa
tience, of neatnesS, and of attention TO
details of affairs, as will go far in the
training for something better: and
whatever that better thing may be,
whether it is the home and little chill
dren, or some higher grade of labor,
the training must always be of value.
score of years back were considered
legitimate occupations for women, the
number has multiplied to more than
as many thousands. New York City
alone is said to hold wage-earners
among women of all grades to the
number of 100000. That means 200. coo
women less in the homes, but it means
many of those women infinitely more
to their homes than they could other
wise have been.
Now the question, not of how much
good they can do, but of how much
they can get, is one that is largely in
their own hands to solve. The out
ward world reaches many a helping
hand. If they have eyes to see, and
the spirit TO grasp when the oppor-
tunity offers, then they will not only
show that they are of noble value in
our country's life, but band of noble
girls and women to whom we may look
for wisdom, and judgment, and COM

lightweight cashmeres for hot-weather
wear are nearly as soft, cool and silk
en- as crepe de chine. The wool mixture
has, however, greater buoyancy than
the pure silk goods, and its colorings
are delicious. Peau de taupe, mole
skin, is the last variation on the nu-
merous gradations of gray that makes
its debut in cashmere; the inevitable
satin and MORE stripe has crept over
its surface, and, for delicate afternoon
gowns, cashmeres are to be bought in
green lilac and a dusty yellow, figured
over with knots of heliotrope and its
gray-green leaves; maiden-hair fern
and primulas, white violets, clematis
and pigmy tulips.

for until we get fairly into the bright
weather of May dashes of scarlet will
wisely be employed on very many

Just at present the sleeve question is
one of absorbing interest to all wom-
ankind, and to the home dressmaker
it is more or less of a difficulty unless
she is properly enlightened.
OF course, everybody recognizes the
fact that the large sleeve is a thing
of the past, and that a gown rs no
longer really stylish that is encum-
bered with them. 1t is an easy mat
ter, however. to cut them over if one
only understands how, and a pattern
is not needed in many cases. With
the sleeves made smaller last years
gown takes a new lease of life and
comes out fresh and smart. for in
other ways gowns have not changed
IL any striking manner.
The new small sleeves are so var
led that all tastes can be easily pleased
and one has a fine opportunity to use
up scraps of silk, velvet and ribbon,
for many of the more fancy models
have a combination of materials in
their makeup.
PRACTICAL ADVICE.
ton or balloon sleeves will easily. fur
nish ample material for the small
sleeves of present fashion, and worn
places may be avoided, only the best
of the goods being put into the new
sleeves, by following the diagram given
here.
The large. outer part of the sleeve
is cut across the top on the line a B,
and this is made to form the puff
shown in the drawing Of the new
sleeve. The lower part of the outer
large leg o. mutton is cut to fit the
inner lining to which il and the top
puff are sewn. This is one of the most
popular sleeves in vogue at present
and is the easiest TO make. 1t may
be left perfectly plain or dressed up as
much as one likes, for a great deal
of trimming on sleeves is very fash
ionable. If the sleeve is of wool goods,
little puffs Of bias silk may be set on
an inch apart, covering gracefully any
worn or stained places. Another fancy
is TO have many rows of velvet ribbon
set an inch apart, or little frills of
narrow lace. All sleeves are made
long over the hands, either the bot
tom of the sleeve itself being lost, or
made to appear so by a frill of silk
lace. chiffon or whatever one fancies.
Very little stiffening is used, and it
is confined entirely to the top of the
puff. a straight piece of stiffening three
inches deep and Is inches long being
gathered into the arm size along with
the sleeve; this sets out sufficiently to
keep the puff from dropping.
