GEORGE vANDERBILT'S BRIDE
She Is Nearly Six Feet Tall and Quite
Divinelv Fair.


Paris, May ga genuine daughter
of the gods, divinely tall, is the young
lady who is shortly to become Mrs.
George Vanderbilt. The curly brown
head OF Miss Edith Dresser rises quite
to level with that of the average we'll
developed man. She measures a half
inch below full six feet in her low
heeled walking shoes, and yet she is
one of the shortest members of her
family. The two sisters, who are mar
ried, fairly and squarely reach the six
foot mark when they stand without the
aid of any artificial. heels, while her
brother towers four inches and a half
above these stately women.
For number of years Miss Dresser
has lived with her eldest AID unmar-
Tied sister. Miss Susan Dresser, in
Paris, and there, because of her IN
usual height, her handsome face and
her perfect French accent, she is as
well known to the fashionable Partisan
as that equally tall and beautiful Eng
fish woman, Lady de Gray. Society in
the gay capital fairly huns with de-
light and interest in this most brilliant
match of the season, with curiosity to
witness the wedding, and with fanciful
stories as to the first meeting between
Mr.. Vanderbilt and his future wife.
AS matter of rather unromantic fact
this quiet gentleman has known Miss
Dresser number of years. She was
always one OF the chosen friends of his
niece, Miss Shepherd and in his sisters
house he saw her frequently. 1t was
not, however, until last summer, when
Miss Pauline Dresser's marriage to the
Rev. Granville Merrill was celebrated
at Newport, that anything like a ro-

ETHICS OF THE VEIL.
Look Out For the Dot, It Plays Queer
Franks

Mr.. Emerson, in his last volume OF
letters and social aims, tells the de-
lightful anecdote of a lady who de-
clared that the sense of being perfectly
well dressed gave her a comfort which
religion itself could not impart.
Perhaps it is owing to this desire to
be perfectly we'll dressed that at least
80 women out of every 100 are induced
to wear wells over their faces. The
veil undoubtedly adds a finish to a
costume that is not noticeable without
it, and gives an air of tidiness. Many
women also claim that they are de-
voted to the veil, as it makes the face
appear more youthful.
The pity is that of all the women
that wear wells so few know how to
arrange them properly. Almost every
thing is being taught in this modern
age. but as yet little instruction has
been given in the tieing of wells. 1t
is really a high art.
The majority OF women tie their wells
too tightly, which makes them feel I'M
comfortable, and results in the most
horrible facial contortions. Then many
women fidget necessarily with their
wells, pulling them out from the nose
and dragging them higher up on the
hat. Often they are not put on so that
a deep fold is made in line with the
jawbone, which at distance invariably
adds in appearance about ten years to
a woman's age.
Fashion at present is decreeing that
spotted wells shall be worn, and, if
rightly chosen and arranged with dis
Greatness, they are certainly becoming.
When, however, two of the dots are
placed so that they touch the corners
of the mouth, they give to that feature
a drawn-down, melancholy expression
that is distressing to look upon. On
the other side, if the dots are placed
just above the corners of the mouth. a
sanguine, silly expression is produced
which may be ridiculously out of har-
mOny with the expression of the eyes
and brow. 1t is also bad policy to al
low a dot to rest just on the end of the
nose, as it adds perceptibly to its
length. When the dots are placed just
above the corners of the eyes they
make even the most soft expression
quite vixenish.
But apart from these pranks of ex-
preston in which the dotted veil
abounds, the real danger is in wearing
the dots over the eyes and causing
them to dodge and strain for a natural
focus. DR.. Ranney of New York. the
well-known oculist, who is consulted
by those from every state in the Union,
and whose profession Yields him about
100000 year. says that every dot on
a veil is worth to him 81, 900. Probably
the doctor spoke in exaggeration, or to
brighten his patients into choosing
wells without dots for their use But,
in spite of his efforts. for every plain
yard of yelling that is sold in the shops
there is disposed of % yards of the
dotted.
In colonial times the ladies discov-
cred that little pieces of black court
plaster, discreetly placed on the face,
lent fairness to the skin and a. pert
ness of expression that was quite ir-
resistible. Without doubt the genera
ton of today is thinking the same thing

famous pima cloth. There is no more
beautiful fabric manufactured in any
part of the world than this, which is
made from the fibre of the pineapple

than $50 has been paid for a single gar

costs as much as $3.50.
The most important industry that
the women of the Philippines are en-
gagged in is tobacco. In the making of
cherOots none but women are en-
ployed. and there are no less than 1000
busy in the factories of Manila alone.
Men make the cigarillos, or small CT
gars. which are smoked by the natives,
but women only are employed to pre-
pare and roll the cigars. 1t is estimat-

in this business and only 1900 men.
