private chapel in the oity and where six
trusty servants of the bridegroom S family
have charge of the house and are trained
to relieve tie young mistress Of all house
hold cares. Then, for the first time in
their acquaintance, the bridegroom and
his bride were alone together.
Four years they had been waiting. but
never once had they seen each other alone
and never once had they kissed each other.
To do so would be disgraceful. The Mexi-
can girl who permits q caress loses her
lover. Most of the loyemaking is done by
letter. For four years Carmen Pradillo
and Juan Andrade were devoted lovers,
yet never spoke to each other or met.
Little Carmen was IL years old when
Senior Andrade, then 10, began to follow
her as she appeared on the street with her
mother or with tho servants of the family.
When she would disappear within her
home. he would take up his position on
the street and remain standing for hours
awaiting a glimpse Of her at some win
dow. He was following a time honored
custom in Mexico which is called play
ing bear, ; and up to the present date the
aristocratic families have all honored IT.

WOMAN ARTIST.
She Paints for a Living
Though She is 50
Years Of Age.


Mrs. Louise Mcclure Patterson of 3031k
Bell avenue, after q life of toll and actiyi-
ty, learned to paint at the age of ~. That
was ten years ago, and she still makes
money with the brush. Her father was
81 years old when he died. She expects
to live to be 100.
"My best work was done after / had
passed middle age and after my children
were grown" she says.
She was a newspaper woman at a time
when few of that class were known. She
has been acquainted with literary women,
and writes poetry occasionally, although
she is a great-grandmother.

son., .sand my yearly revenue from it

record far in the shade.
Since that carnival of kissing Deignan
has been the most talked of mar in the
United States navy. In Stuart a big re-
ception was rendered to him and a gold
mounted sword was presented to him by
the governor. On his return to New York
he stopped off at Des Moines. Chicago and
Syracuse to attend banquets given in his
honor. In New York he was banqueted
at che Waldorf-Astoria. and nov there is
talk of sending lin to Annapolis that he

hrocade. Below that are three superposed
founces of ~taffeta, each bordered with q
row of chenille in cherry red. There are
two vandyked rows of ruching of silk
null the exact shade of the silk. These
are very full. The design of the brocade
shows immense flowers in paler shades of
the pink. The low bodice is dTaEed and
has revers and very short sleeves, all bor-
dered with narrow pink ruching.
These three dresses are intended moro
for young married ladies or young ladies
in their second or third season than for
very young ones. For them are the soft
crepe lisse, tulle, illusion and silk null.
White t~arlatan is also in favor. 1t makes
pretty crisp dresses and looks light and
airy. It is not expensive in itself. but
when loaded with all sorts of devices
wrought with baby ribbons and pearl beads
it would suit the most ext%rayagant.
The styles of making up the %rosebud's
dresses are as simple as possible. A very
little lace and some ribbon generally afford
all the trimming.
Silken skirts to wear with these gowns
almost pass belief for their extravaganza.
They have first three or four narrow silk
ruffies with lace over them, then a deep
accordion plated founce overlaid with
lace insertion and above that again dia-

skirt. Some are white; more are in light
tints.
Striped black and white satins are in

worn all winter. So will heavier silks.

them are real works Of art.

There is but one thing to be said in ia
vor Of the long, curved and 1ounced capes:
and that is that their narrowness and
weight prevent them from blowing up
over the wearer's head. The capes of the
last few seasons lave all been SO wide that
tho wind often put the wearer's life in
peril by suddenly blowing the cape up over
the head and making it impossible to see
or hear, and this often occurred in the
middle of the busiest and most dangerous
streets.
The capes in the newest fashion are as
long as one wants them in the back and
as short in front and as narrow and close
as one may wish. Besides them we see
now numbers of regular mantles with
shaped pieces over the shoulder and fore
arm.
One in this style was of black cloth with
a design in raised frise all over it in bro
ken arabesque pattern. There was a band
of astrakhan four inches wide all around
it and up the fronts, widening at the top
into revers. The high collar was faced
with the fur. In the back it was cut to a
point, and in making it fit over the shout
ders the arm pieces were rounded up, which
gave it a half sleeve effect.
There is such a variety in outdoor gar
ments that one scarcely knows which to
mention first. A very beautiful coat was
of rich black velvet. It fitted in the back
and was about 26 inches long. 1t was
double breasted in front. closing to the
left. The fronts were dartless and round
ed. The sole trimming was a wide band
of black ostrich feathers all around and up
the front and close around the neck in
stead of a collar.
Ostrich feather bands appear to be a
favorite trimming for all sorts of wraps
and coats aside from their popularity as

one of the most brilliant social events
which the Mexican capital has witnessed

Unfrained Tor work.

The Art Interchange has this to say
with regard to women in art work sta
tistics are not to be trusted absolutely, but
some recently published figures showing
the invasion of the professional field by
women afford the thinking one among
US food for reflection. It is stated by
those who devote their energies to gather
ing such Information that 1900 women
in the United Stats follow art as q pro-
fession. In no oingr profession are SO
many women employed, except in music,
whose followers, as vecaiists and instrti-
mentaiists, number $1,000. Twenty eight
hundred women are engaged in literature
and SEQ in journalism. Besides these,
there are 600 employed IN dramatic au-
thorship. The actresses number 1900.
Contemplation of these figures viii afford
some idea of the keen competition for en-
ployment between men and women in our
cities. It will also point to the necessity
for better equipment among women seek
ing employment in their chosen field. It
is a recognized fact among those who ont
