 A Simple Tailor Costume.

A simple tailor costume easily copied has a skirt of russet brown cloth with sleeves and bolero of brown silk velvet.
 The back of the jacket is closely fitted, and in front turns back, with large re. vers of ecru cloth, trimmed on the edges with narrow roll of dark mink. The seven gored skirt is finished with three narrow bias bands of the brown cloth, showing q mere line of velvet at the edges. The vest is of ecru cloth fastened with small gold and bronze buttons and trimmed with machine stitched straps.
 Another similar model for a more youthful wsarer has middy vest of the ecru cloth, with rows of brown gimp at the lower edge, and five rows around the neck under the straight cloth collar

eontented until their sex is represented on the municipal boards of the town. They will keep everlastingly at it until their aim IS accomplished.
 Last year they put forward Mrs. Ellen NJ. Bancroft as a candidate for @ posi- tien on the school board and Mrs. Ger trude K. Hussey as a trustee of the pub lie library. They failed of election by a small margin of votes. These ladies were again indorsed at a meeting at Mrs. William Carter's Thursday after noon.
 The ladies are even more aggressive this year than last and will probably suggest a candidate from among their number for the oyerseers of the poor.
 This departure is probably due to the agitation that was occasioned by the discussion in The Chronicle regarding the conduct of affairs at the town farm. For some time past, if not always. the seleetmen have been also elected to serve as board of health. There are many reasons why this should continue to be so. The two boards have very much in common in a financial and executive way, and it might be unw!se to divorce them.
 The Chronicle concludes with sug- gestion for the election or appointment of an advisory board of women whose duty it would be Ito advise with the over seers, keep an eye on the town farm, re- port on the outside poor and in a general way to interest themselves in the de- partment. 7" But VIC hope the women will decline position of responsibility without power. Women arc eligible as overseers of the poor and should be chosen as such.

wonan's Emancipation.

Woman s emancipation was for many years sentimental vagary. Now it is an accomplished fact This is not so much due to advanced ideas as to the labor saving inventions of the age, most of which have emanated from the erea- tive brain of men,
 Our grandmethers planted their own flax, spun their own thread, wove their own cloth and shaped their own gar ments. Before the days of sewing ma chimes they stitched uneeasingly, and to know how to sew was necessity rather than an accomplishment Now the whiz of the treadle is heard in ey- cry home, and the busy seamstress &C., compishes in day what she could not have done in a month.
 Wringers, patent soaps and stationary tubs have released the aching arms of the laundress from the drudgery of washing. The housemaid lightly runs her sweeper over the carpet and disdains to handle the honest broom. The cook turns up her nose at the homely kitchen range and boils and bakes by gas or cleo. trieity. The dairymaid's occupation is gone, as the cream IS separated and the butter ohurned by machinery. The busy housekeeper need no longer put up her fruit and pickles, as that is done at the factory.
 In fact. in this mechanical age human hands seem almost superfuous and the labor saving devices so numerous that women are no longer bound, like Ixion, to the wheel of household drudgery.
 The once busy housekeeper, released from the thraldom of baking, sweeping and washing, has leisure to keep herself posted about current events, the newest book and the latest fad ill art, music or fashion. The old regime has passed away, and women, no longer hampered by household cares, stand forth the peers of their husbands and brothers in edu- cation and enlightenment. -Godey s Magazine

The Bnnnlo sorihhlers.

The Scribblers' club of Buffalo is an organization of professional and anna teur writers, probably the best known of the latter being Anna Katharine Green, formerly of Brooklyn. Many of the professionals represent Buffalo dai. lies, while the amateurs are women of social rank and connected with various phllanthropic, educational and charita- ble organizations. This fraternizing of talent is productive of much good. the amateurs being just the kind of friends required by young women employed in newspaper work, for, while many of the latter have never lowered their standard of refined expression, others cannot resist the temptation to write smart things at any cost.
 Such club as the Seribblers, gives an opportunity for the women of leisure and wealth and the women who have taken high rank in authorship to com- blne their influence and provide a safe- guard, by their friendship, for those who may need it. A noteworthy fact of this fellow ship is the grateful affection shown by the younger members toward these whose influence has been helpful to them, some of the most successful re- ferring their achievements rather to the guidance of some friendly and eminent literary woman than to the possession of native taleat.
 The Scribblers are not without aims other than that of mutual advancement. They have founded an art scholarship, providing funds to educate young girl for this profession, and as their mem- bership increases they expect to find larger field for work. They have no per manent quarters, and need none, for they have standing invitation to use private parlor in any of the leading city hotels. Their meetings are held fort nightly, and their programmes cover most interesting variety of subjects, amusing as well as instructive.

A Debutante's Reception.

As ill the gay winter months before Lent there will be many dances and dinners and an opera season, besides all the other social doings in which our debutante is to take her part, her intro- duetion must not be delayed too long after things are fairly started Saturday is now the day invariably chosen. Then men, who are of course always q desir- able adjunct to any such occasion, have leisure and will for this particular event perhaps waive their prejudice to after noon affairs i'll general So about two weeks before the day all the friends and aequaintanees on the visiting list of the debutante's mother who live in the same place, and also those who live in the suburbs or near enough to be able to exchange calls with her, receive cards of invitation. These cards are little larger than an ordinary visiting card, and. engraved in fine running script, read as follows:
 Mrs. Charles Moulton Johnson,
 Miss Johnson,
 At home
 Saturday, December the seventh,
 From four until seven.
 Fridays. 334 St. Nicholas avenue. Friday being the hostess customary receiving day. her daughter will hence- forth be at home then also. and it is at that time that guests invited to the re- ception are expected to make their after call. These cards are inclosed in envel- opes which fit them exactly, and are ad. dressed and sent by mail Two or more cards sent to the same family may be inclosed in one outside envelope. the names only being written on the inside envelopes and the address with the names of the heads of the household on the outside one. Or the cards may be sent separately, as preferred Harper s Bazaar.

Mrs Rudolph Blankenburg of Phila- delFhia has been recently elected presi- dent of the Pennsylvania Woman Suf- fragist association. She has drawn up 8 bill which will be presented to the leg islature in favor of the rights of widows. As the law is now, the widow may re. ceiye only one, third of the joint prop. erty of her husband and herself and the income of only one-third of tho real es tate for life-that is. provided the hus band has made no will. If the wife owns property and fails to make will the husband is entitled to all the per sonal property and the use of all tht real estate during his life. Mrs Blank enburg wants a great change made.

La Grande Franchise.

Of Mme. Furtado Heine, known as La Grande Franchise. who died recently, the London Globe says; "She was the widow of M. Charles Heine, the mil lionaire and cousin of the famous Ger man poet. During the empire Mime. Heine was leading figure in Parisian society, but in latter years she seems to have derived more pleasure in utilizing her wealth in alleviating the sufferings of the afflicted rather than ill attending the gatherings of fashionable Paris. To her belongs the credit of having estab- lished several blind asylums and orphan ages. When disaster occurred and funds were needed, she was always to the fore with large subscription.

Two Pretty vlsiting Costumes.

"A handsome costume I saw recently, worn by visitor who was calling at 'the house of a friend, was of mixed brown and white cheviot. The skirt was quite plain. The bodice showed a Snort Eton jacket of the cheviot, square
 and fitted in the back as we'll as in the
 iront, " writes Isabel A. Mallon in The
 Ladies Home Journal. 'The vest had a
 lull front of white chiffon and about the
 waist was broad, fitted belt of green velvet, the belt fastened in front under
 large cut steel buttons. The sleeves were ntted ones of the cheviot, with two far , Ing caps of green velvet above each at the shoulder. A white satin stock was the neck finish. The hat had brim of pli- aple brown felt, puffed crown of green selVet, and a cluster of brown feathers was caught at one side under steel or lament. The gloves were light tan qressed kid, and the huff was of mink med with dark green satin. The cape was of mink. It had a square back, 8 nigh medioi collar and long, square ends.
 Another handsome visiting costume showed daring skirt of black moire, With brocaded globes upon it of the same hue. The bodice was really a mar qulse coat of black velvet, with waist coat of striped black and white silk, so1t and full, showing between the far Ing fronts. The sleeves of the velvet were somewhat full at the top; then eney dropped and shaped into the arm, atting closely at the wrists, faring over lhe hands sufficiently to permit the sleeve to be turned back, and faced in cuff fashion with the black and white strlped silk. The collar was folded one ol white chiffon with three overlapping points of black velvet, each caught with tiny jet ornament. To wear with it

Trimming NEother,s Hat.

Trimming a bonnet for an elderly lady is perhaps the most difficult task encountered by the home milliner. It isn't like hat for young person, which may often be trimmed to look pretty without regard for Dame Fash ion S edicts. It must be trimmed exactly in accordance with the laws laid down for the season.
 At present bennets for elderly ladies are rather large and cover almost the entire top of the head. Considerable lenieney is allowed regarding eolors, and women with gray hair may now wear purple, green and even red.
 The bonnet may have crown of silk and felt braided or one of embroidered velvet Jet crowns also appear on some, but that material is not particularly fashionable this year.
 The crowns are plaited in softly, giv- ing very full effect. The brims also are very full, of velvet usually. They extend down behind the ears and are finished with ehoux of velvet or ribbon at each end From beneath them fall narrow velvet strings which tie ill a bow under the chm.
 The bonnet is now ready for the trim ming, which should consist of ribbon, velvet, velvet blossoms or ostrich feath- CTS. All the trimming on bonnet is flat. with the exception of oDe feature, which may be bunch of Prince of Wales plumes, upstanding rabbits ears of velvet or ribbon, and is placed on one side of the front or directly ill the center of tho crown Velvet flowers may form the entire brim, or a small cluster may be crushed close to the bonnet on one side.
 When jet crown is used, the bonnet may be further enhanced by the addi- tion of jet buckle. New York Adver- tiser.

ls l, home a picturesque spot on the
 abts at Queenston overlooking the x ssara river Here Miss Woods child
 .i WAS spent, and no doubt the splen-
 1 natural environment among which
 vas reared played no small part in ming the future writer. Her eduoa-
 p was received at the St. Catharines
 IIeeiate institute, school which in
 69 years of existence has trained
 res of those who are now Canada s
 1. known men and women.
 To write WAS Miss Woods ambition
 Inn her earliest years, and very thor
 oh has been her preparation for her
 een work-so thorough that it was
 y after much study and hard reading
 st fka thoprhs If giving her writings
 the public. tor long time they
 sre shown only to her elder brother,
 bo had been her constant critic. In
 et. it is to him that Miss Wood asoribes subsequent success, for in spite of ss severity with her literary faults it is him that she owes all her stimulus nd inspiration. But life, even more
 an books, she has studied in a most
 sematic way.
 Frequent trips to Europe have formed Int of her training, while each winter he takes up her residence in some cen ef of social or literary life. Sometimes sIbe has chosen New York, oftener Bos- 1n, and this winter Philadelphia is her temporary home. Her literary work and sHudy arc varied by numbers of social iutes, for Miss Wood has hosts of shiends. Last winter she did no writing, s but threw herself heartily into the se- dal life of that gayest of cities, Paris, hiefy for the purpose of bringing her Jeff more ill touch with French litera- lure through a better knowledge of the people. In London, too. she had every Opportunity of seeing the best of English life, while the purpose of her last visit 10 Scotland was to collect material for a stOry of the mining district.
 Miss Wood has always been a strong opponent of the tradition that writing women must be dowdy and severe look mg, She frankly confesses a fondness for smart gowns, dainty surroundings and all feminine frivolities. Though she has advanced most unconventional the ories in her writings, yet she is by no means new woman in any of the pop liar aceeptations of the term. She has no desire to vote, is not an upholder of he rational dress movement and has ven declared that she will never ride a licyole.
 As disciple of the realistic school Hiss Wood has no sympathy with the lghteousness that condemns the erring while putting forth no hand to help. Writers, above all others, she holds, aust he tolerant and charitable. Illib- ral consciousness should be no part of hose who must live near to humanity lefore they can interpret it aright. - ionora s. Howard in Buffalo Express.
