INVENTIVE WOMEN.

Some Useful and Unique Devices Dis
covered by the Fair Sex.
From the New Orleans Picayune.
1t IS not generally supposed that many
Of the labor-saving inventions of the world
may be credited to women. The Chinese
Empress Tao, for example worked out use
full ideas In her busy brain. She invented
the spinning of silk, never dreaming OF the
immense industry that would grow from
her creation. luxurious woman of Asia
discovered the altar of roses and this same
woman. Mhearai Misi, invented the ingen-
ious handicraft, the cashmere shawl. His
tory is silent as to her end. The women
who are kept from want by the making of
pillow lace have reason to bless the name
of Barbara Uttmann of Saxony. Wood en-
craving was discovered by the Cunio Sis
tiers, two Italian women, and ii was the
widow of General Nathaniel Greene who
made the suggestion of the cotton gin,
which was perfected by Eli Whitney. The
grandmother of Clara Louise Kellogg in
vented an attachment to the machinery in
looms in mills, and another woman's genius
worked out device for deadening the
noise of railway trains. A Miss knight
invented the paper bag, and at once people
wondered why so simple a contrvance had
never been thought of before.
Nine De Long invented metal-cutting
machinery, which has been used in France
for some time. This machinery is worked
by steam, and from the solid metal cuts out
gates and other architectural work with
out casting. Nine. De Long has cut plates
of brass foot thick into lattice work at a
single operation. She has also made pic
ture frames. crests and lace pins, turning
them out of the metal fully finished, every
operation being performed by the steam
driven machinery. She first conceived the
idea of her remarkable apparatus over 20
years since, when a paralysis of the right
arm compelled her to give up her trade of
Jewel worker. She has received many med
ais from various Paris expositions. The
first laureate crown ever offered to wo-
pan has been bestowed upon Nine. DE
Long by the Society of French Architects
in Paris. Mrs. Barton Parnell, who has
worked for over forty years in the Austria
Han gold Mines has made fame and for
tune for herself as an assayist. She dis
covered the secret OF treating ore before
roasting IL SO that as much gold as brown
stone could be obtained from 1t. Mrs Par
nell intends to found college in England
for women. where they will be trained to
be practical miners. II Is stated that there
are nearly 100000 self-supporting women
In the United States alone and 1t is diff
cult to find a branch of trade I'm which thew

HINTS ON THE COIFFURE

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star.
DUBLIN. March %. 1898.
The queens drawing rooms set the ex-
ample for fashion in England and the new
ideas in dress promulgated at this impor-
tant social function spread farther, like
ripples caused by missile in smooth
water.
When street gowns assume the right to
dip" then trains for evening and house
wear are indeed inevitable, and all skirts
are worn at stumbling length in front and
on the sides, as well at the back, SO that
1t requires more than ordinary skill and
grace to keep ones own and everybody
else's feet disentangled from the masses of
silk and velvets and f1imsy laces and gauzes
which make I'D the modern evening gown
and dancing frock.
The court gown adheres to it's regula-
ton length and the train sweeps five
meters behind. Our illustration represents
one of the most successful models of the
season. and was designed by US for the
beautiful Marchioness Of Lansdowne.
The skirt, of heavy ivory satin, is en-
broidered by hand with large sprays of
Hlacs in natural colors. The form is an &C
centuation of the present mode Of scanti-
ness over the hips, while below the knees
sweep, which is cut in one with the mar
row front gore. The junction of the tight
upper part and the place below is covered
with a narrow passementerie of silver, set
with pearls, diamonds and amethysts The
back breadths form q moderate traic
which is edged with a ruche of lilac mousse
line de sole. and Is lined throughout like
the skirt, with white satin. The lining of
the bodice is covered with folds of lilac
satin, overlapping each other and shaped
INTO points in front and back, where the
bodice is laced: each fold Is edged with
1eweled passementerie, while single anne
thysts and diamonds are sewed on pro-
miscCously all over the bodice. The effect
Is that of dewdrops sparkling and flashing
at every movement of the wearer. A
nounee of real Brussels lace encircles the
decollete and falls gracefully over one
shoulder. while forming a jabot at the
other, where it terminates under a large
spray Of pink roses, buds and foliage The
pun sleeves are beaded with passemerterie
and around the neck Is worn a double
string of pearls, with an exquisite star of
