Fashions in Tablecloths

Cosmos and pansies are preferred for
cloths intended for round tables. Some
times entire plants are used to form
double border with a plain linen center
and plain strip between.
The latest and most fashionable table,
cloths have centers of plain linen, to which
deep floral borders extend from the hem.
poppies, lilacs or goldenrod are favorite
designs.
Floral designs are preferred, the figures
being larger and more pronounced than
ever, this season. Some damasks show the
representations of whole plants or of a
great branch bearing both flowers and foli-
age.
Lace-trimmed table linen is more FASH
ionable than it was last season. Three new
laces are used in ornamenting it. One is a
French lace, resembling heavy linen tor
chon of elaborate patterns; another is a
Russian lace Of close meshes and clumsy
figures.
Table linen that Is not trimmed with lace
should be marked with embroidered ni-
tials. The accepted size for letters on ta-
blecloths is two and one-half inches, and
for napkins one and one-half inches. The
initials should be intertwined, but the old
fashioned monogram style is no longer
admissible.

NEW YORK, March 14-(Special Core
spondence to The Herald) Fortunate are
the possessors of lace shawls, so long una
vailahle but now fashions latest Whim.
They are not, however. to be worn ex-
cIusively as coverings for our shoulders
but as draped overskirts In the form OF
tunics and aprons. Those in the Chan-
tilly style of lace will be preferred, thoush
other makes will not be barred. Both
hiack and white will be used. When nseo
for shawl-shaped capes the lace is hned
With a thin silk The semi-circular shawls
ara the easiest to arrange as capes. Scar1s
will also be used as panellings and for max
ing stoles for the decoration of princess
gowns and NANTES.
Entire dresses of lace and Of net en-
brodered in spots or in single flowers Will
be worn for smart summer ana evening
toilettes. Robes partly shaped out and
made up will probably be the favor1tes'
These consist of a shaped skirt and lengths
of embroidered piece net for the waist ana
sleeves and of edging for trimming. Many
of these robes have shaped and embroid-
cred piece for the bodice also, making the
getting up of the toilette comparatively
simple thing. The embroidery or lace work
on the shaped skirt is in nearly all cases,
confined to the lower half, and a festooh
runs all around the edge. In the piece nets,
technically known as laize. there is great
variety of styles and designs. Louis XIV.
patterns seem to predominant. however,
the true lovers and floating ribbon being
much used.
Most of the white and tinted lace or
laize is of the guipure order, and will be
used for blouse bodices and fronts in ivory,
cream, ficelle and ecru.
The Easter season will see the lace
bertha revived. They are already being
sold gathered and sewed to a narrow rib
hon ready for sewing to the top of low
bodices.

SPRING COATS AND CAPES
Capes seem to be the favorites this year
and these range from the collarettes, such
as the model published two weeks ago, to
the long cape which falls well over the
hips. The faring collar is used on both.
Innings are conspicuous in color; for in
stance, black cheviot capes have Innings
of checked black and yellow, white and
heliotrope, black and red but the most
popular is black and white.
Blush red, reddish brown and deep green
cloth capes are very handsome. and so
smart looking that they are suitable with
any toilette While on the subject Of
capes, 1 must not forget to mention that
the "three-dccker," so fashionable few
years ago, has again come to the 'front.'
and bids fair to be one of the most fash
ionable modes for spring wear. In fawn
or French gray it isvay smart, especially
if the latter color be braided in black and
silver. Another equally chic cape of this
cut, which / recently saw, was fashioned
of darh-blue box cloth. in an extremely
light make, and braided with white silk

The Le Gallienne Pose

Most of the women in lie Gallienne's s
first audience the other afternoon took Off
their hats to hear him. This shows the
sort of interest they were imbued with
that of the eye rather than the ear AS a
spectacle lie Gallenne is success. One
of the press notices quoted upon the back
of his program says that he makes a
very striking platform figure, adding that
"hs pale. flushed face is set off by black
hair, tie and Clothes" which is really quite
expressive and truthful, even if it is little
mixed. lie Gallienne created something
more than commotion by entering the
theater by the front door instead of by

BUSINESS WOMEN AS WIVES
Training in Practical Affairs Often
Makes Best of Helpmeets

1t has frequently been said that women
in business employments do not make as
desirable wives as do their sisters who
have lived only domestic lives, but recent
observer takes a wholly different view
of the case. He holds that the effect of the
woman in business is not so much to the
advantage of the woman herself as to the
business man. Such a woman has more
respect for him, more regard, more sym
pathy. She is altogether less likely to vol
unfairly impose upon him or involuntarily
to harass and worry him. She has been
these, she knows how it is herself, and
this personal knowledge and experience
make her more lenient and considerate.
Every woman wage-earncr worthy of the
name learns, first, last and all the time,
that success is attained only by close at
tention and Single-mindedness. The wo-

shown a pardonable patriotism in many
curious ways The formal college cap has
met new rivals in the Flora Macdonald
bonnet, the Glengarry, the Tam O. Shanter
the Cock-of-the-walk, the Bobbie Burns
and the Highland Chieftain. In wearing
apparel there has been a revival of Scotch
friezes, Caledonian shawls and historical
plaids and tartans Some of the college
clubs and societies have adopted as uni.
form style, made famous by the great
women of Scotch history.
The most general of all fashions, how
ever, is the use of tartans for street and
college costumes. The effect is described
as most happy bringing to mind the pic

considerable property, and here she has
erected an artistic pavilion of the Chinese

dancing and pleasure parties from Tampa.

the stock of the Tampa street railway sys-

THE MIN sTRELs
The Opera House Packed to It's Utmost
 Capacity Last Night.

Geo. Wileon, at the head of the Cleveland & Wilson company, an organization of a few clever minstrel artists, opened the season last even- Ing in this city. The audience was very large and filled the upper and lower part of the house to ft's utmost capacity.
 The American minstrel. which ia q Southern institution and one that has survived the test of many years repetition, seems this season to have taken a new hold nn popular favor. Pine Bluff people like George Wilson. They have always done so and the same frindly feeling was recognized last night The audience is always large wien Wilson comes to town, for he is essentially and in every sense of the word minstrel comedian. He was not dragged in from the concert hall, nor whirled around the circuit in a barn-storm- Ing company nor did he glide un- gracefully down a flight of grea sed stairs from the legitimate He was baptized minstrel comedian by real old hardshell banjo picker down on the old plantation"b "befo, de wah,3 But George failed to wake up last evening. In fact the vast audience never expected a great deal, but they went away disappointed The stage settings for the first part were gaudy; some of the jokes possessed full grown boards; E. M.
