A SENSELESS TRICK.
Lifting the Eyebrows Is Sure to
bring Wrinkles.

This lifting of the eyebrows is a sense
less trick which is thought to give ex-
preston to the face. IL is on a level with
the many other so-called tricks of ex-
preston, really nothing more than con-
tortions of the facial muscles. 1t is rare
to find woman who can carry on con-
versation with an even countenance and
without mods and wags of the head, says
the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Only the Southern women seem to thor
oughly understand the meaning of the
word ''repose," and to carry it into every
act of their lives. Repose of face, repose
of manner, repose even in the manage
ment of the voice is their charm / re-

lect a cool sequestered dell for setting up
in such business. On nearer approach
1t became evident that two women were
engaged in some sort of occupation with
in the inclosure.
We'll, If they are only women" ex-
claimed one of the party. II am going to
satisfy my curiosity and she boldly ad-
vanced to the subject of debate.
What she found was in reality a per-
ambulating studio, invented by one OF
the artists at work inside, who had be-
come soul-and-body-weary OF dragging
around stool. umbrella, easel, camera,
paint and brushes; of having to seek
shelter when it rained; of being obliged
to remain indoors when 1t was cold of
enduring the heat, cold and moisture of
the ground; and what is worse working
in its reflected light, and a thousand
other ills that only out-of-door artists
know
In view of these discomforts she had
designed this studio-wagon, which a car
riage maker had made for her at cost
hardly above that of an ordinary wagon.
1t was perhaps six feet long and from
two to three feet wide. In the top were
two skylights with canvas sides, which
could be let down when a cart, not a
studio, was wanted. The bottom was
neatly covered with mating and held two
comfortable chairs, one back of the other
In which the two artists were sitting.
In front of each chair were firm steady
rests for their canvasses On all sides
were convenient places IN which to slip
sketches. Slides covered with black oil
cloth were at hand TO slip in whenever
1t was desirable to shut off a part of the
light, and others OF plate glass for use
If one wished to paint during storm
Perfect arrangements were made for
tiny stove, or for a lamp when only a 1T
tie additional heat was required COM
Portable awning spread its wings on the
sunny side on this occasion, as 1t chanced
TO be a warm day. This could be easily
lifted off, folded and laid away in a snug
place designed for 1t under the wagon.
A dozen other convenIences testified 10
the cleverness and ingenuity of woman
when she really sets her brain to work
In this secure retreat-free from anxiety
as TO the wind and the weather, they
could work until tired, and then instead
of the weary tag home they had only to
drop the skylights, fold away the avn
ing, adjust the sides, put Jack into the
cart and then a delightful drive in the
fading day.

A WEDDING GOWN.


And How the Bride Came to Wear
This is a story about roll of Chinese
crepe There lives In this city the widow
of naval officer, who is not a society
woman In the accepted sense of the
term, but whose name is registered in
the annals of heroes who died for their
eountry's good.
She Is childless woman, and except
Tor an ancient colored woman and her
clove-colored grandson, lives near George
town quite alone.
AT the time of her marriage she pos
sessed friend, who also loved the young
officer and who afterwards married a
merchant, who died, leaving her daugh-
ter and debts 1% rft
AS this widow had never forgiven her
successful rival and the other could new
er forget, it has happened in all these
years they have never exchanged visits
nor bowed in passing. Last winter, how
ever, the officers widow found herself
shopping at the same counter with the
other woman. who, unaware of her pres
ence, was deep in troubled consulta-
tion with her daughter, and the other
heard every word
There is no use talking" said the
young girl, finally, in a voice that trem-
bled with distress. 81 will just have to
wear travelling dress, and all my life
/ have planned to be married in white
By that time the listener had heard
enough to justify her in doing what some
good people might call a quixotic, but
certainly was a very graceful, deed.
She went straight home and going to

from its perfumed depths bundle wrap

1t was a bolt of snowy canton crepe,
that her husband ad brought her from
China-his last gift-and that she held it
sacred is easily understood by those,
like her, who revere their dead. That
evening she carried it to the home of
the merchants widow, and month later
when the daughter became a bride the
society columns were enthusiastically de-
scriptive of her gown of Chinese crepe

A Democrntic PRINCESS.

Princess Louise, Marchioness of Lorne,
is perhaps the most democratic Of Queen
Victoria's daughters, so far as such a
term can be applied to any royal princess.
She has no sympathy with pretensions
and affectations. On many occasions her
royal highness has done things with her
own hands that women whose chief claim
imagination would have rung the bell for
a servant to do.
Once when visiting the schoolroom of a
certain little lady who had very exalted
ideas of her own rank, she discovered that
affairs between pupil and governess were
a little strained. The princess inquired of
the goyerness the cause. The little lady
at once sure of the right on her side,
burst in with: Miss F. wanted me to
clean my slate. Surely dukes daughter
need not clean her own slate!' Miss F.
is quite right" said the princess. Il
am the Queens daughter, and 1 always
cleaned my slate
Once the princess was presiding at a
committee meeting. and when leaving the
house where it was held the hostess
dropped her bangle. She was politely
waiting until the princess had passed to
pick it up, but to her surprise Princess
Louise stopped. picked 1t up and gave it
to her. saying simply, II might have
trodden on your pretty bracelet
{ The dignity of royal ladies depends
upon other things than small observ-
ances, although in the matter of etiquette
they are all past mistresses when occa-
sion requires.-Baltimore True American.
