WOMEN WRITER'S.

Nearly all the women who are prominent
to-day in literature began to write original
compositions of some kind or another as
soon as they could hold a pen. Mrs Meade
has produced over 100 works of fiction and
is still lady in her prime. Mrs. Hodgson
Burnett began her career in earnest at the
early age of Is. Reverses had come to her
family by reason of the cotton famine
and she was anxious to help the family
funds. Edna Lyall began to write stories
when she was about 9 years old She
wrote, as she says, "for the joy OF writ
ing and because she could not resist the
craving to describe the heroes and heroines

me would be prettier than silk, giving
more body to the coat.
or course, since they are SO promin-
ent, these buckles have had their share
of attention from the artistic designers,
and so are found in the very most ap-
proved and original designs ever seen.
One of these is with the medallion in
front. This medallion may be family
portrait, or an ideal head Of child, or
or a real likeness of some one OF the
family, like ones little favorite niece,
or, more approved still, it may be ones
own portrait done in colors, in antique
style, and making one look as If one
had just stepped out Of the family pic
ture gallery to view the summer scene.
A muff was part of the set. 1t was a
big lustrous black velvet affair trim
med with two very large white satin
ears edged with narrow shirred satin
ribbon set above handful of ermine
tails, and fastened with a big silver
buckle to match the one at the back OF
the coat. Think over this garment, ye
women of many desires, and behold it's
easy adaptiyeness. See with what lit
tie fitting you can fashion such cloak
from black silk, how inexpensively line
it, and with what simple devices fit
yourself out with a dressy coat. Re-
member always in handling soft mater
ials to line the lapels; for in their stiff
ness lies the smartness Of the garment.
Skirts, it may be mentioned in pass
ing, are made of coarse rather rough
plaids and novelty woods. They are
trimmed in cross pattern with broad
black silk braids and are very effect
i've; much more so than the simple
Scotch plaids without the braiding,
though many of the plaids are worn
plain. 1t seems sacrilege to deliber-
ately cross and re-cross a handsomely
arranged plaid with bands of fiat braid,
yet it is done every day.

NEW YORK, December THE win
ter fashions continue to be distinctive,
to the sorrow d. the thrifty soul who
would make last seasons coat do duty
for the winter Of 1900. Old coats look
strange by the side of the new ones
with their dong sweepink shapes and
their open fronts.
The head of large cloak department
conducted your correspondent up two
flights OF stairs, beyond the salesrooms,
and into a large attic storehouse where
there was force at work unpacking
the long wooden cases of winter coats
that had just come in. These are the
last we shall receive" said he, then
will come our spring styles"
'You see," added he. how different
are these cloaks from those of last
year" And different they were.
A black velvet coat, for instance, was
cut with blazer front. 1t was open to
the belt line; and below the belt the

warm and beautiful coat was lined
with the softest, blacklist ermine eyes.
The salesman literally winked at me
when I asked him if some of these eyes
were not applied by artificial means;
and l found, by pressing with my fin
ger under an eye, that it was indeed
sewed On. The soft white fur OF rab-
bit and other skins, pure white and
cheap, of the sort usually chosen for
children's furs. can be dotted with
these "eyes" in such a manner that the
fur very closely resembles ermine; and
for lining purposes this fur is precisely
as serviceable as the priceless ermine.
This coat had lapels of ermine, and
the cuffs, or rather the lining, was Of
the same. A broad belt of white MORE
was fastened in the middle of the back
with an exquisite silver buckle, part
Of the cloak, Of course.

OUR TYPEWRITER GIRLS.

Some of Them Have Chances to Make
Fortunes by Speculation-They Rave Rev
olutionized Business Life and Marry
Well.
Just why the writer's of jokes should
continue to direct their attention to the
typewriter girl is hard to understand.
The business world acknowledges that
she is necessity, and she is in the
field to stay.
Typewriter girls are not well paid,
but they receive more for their services
than do shop girls, cashiers, or seam
stresses, and they lead much freer lives
and have better opportunities for ply
steal and mental development.
A great many typewriter girls have
chances, through their employers, to
make money outside of their salaries.
Particularly is this true of those en-
ployed in Wall street Offices. They Of
ten get points from writing the brok-
ers' letters and make some very sue
cessful deals. 1t is said that one young
woman has profited 5000 by buying
stocks and contenting herself with SELL
ing it at slight advance.
These girls, if they receive their bu-
siness education at a really frst-class
institution, imbibe with their studies
the knowledge of how to meet a man on
strictly business grounds, and learn
not to expect those courtesies that make
up so much of social life. They learn
that success means always the closest
attention to even the smallest duties,
always being amiable, gentle hammered
and neat.
1t is an undisputed fact that the type
writer girl has revolutionized the offices
of this city. There are people who hold
that the mere fact of woman doing
work for which she is paid in money
takes something away from her, and
that men do not feel the same toward
her. When asked If this was true a
man who employs 80 stenographers, all
girls, in his Office, replied most en-
phatically:
mo, and the man who says that Is a
cad-a snob. used to employ all men
in my Office, and it was by accident that
changed to the girls. One day one of
my boys secured a better place. / had
the greatest confidence in him, and
asked him to recommend some one who
he felt sure could do the work salts
factorily. To my amazement, he re-
commended his sister. WHAT have a
girl in my Officer I exclaimed. Never.
He said: I'm sure you would get
more comfort out of her than you say
you have got out of me- After a good
deal of talk 1 gave her trial.
"She came the next day and took her
place at his desk, and there's been a
different atmosphere in that musty old
Office ever since. Her gentle presence
changed things as if by magic, and the
boys grew more gentle and courteous.
and my head men seemed to go about
their work with new enthusiasm. The
little girl attended strictly TO her bust
ness, but when she looked up it was
always with a smiling face, and when
she tripped from desk to desk the very
swish OF her skirts seemed to make
things different
Gradually this, that and the other
boy dropped into places in other Offices
or went into business for themselves;
some of them became managers in my
Office. until finally found all my type
writer's girls. They do the work more
satisfactorily: they get along pleasantly
Nth one another. and they are always

THE FIRST GLIMPSE OF THE WINTER GIRL.
The wonderful New Goats She viii Which She
will Cover Shapey Head

Did you know that Paris fashions
are going out of date? And isn't 1t
funny? Several Fifth Avenue tailors
have displayed to me their plans for
Easter and have shown me their order
books, from the best modistes in Paris,
requesting a first peep at styles Amer
lean. How strange If Paris fashions
should lose their prestige. There is a
rage for American goods OF all kinds,
consequent upon the recent acknowl-
edged general prosperity of the coun-
try.
BOX COATS.
The little box coats are extremely
smart, not only in white goods but in
plaids and pin stripes. Tan and ecrue
goods are braided and coachman's grey
is plaided with narrow bands OF dark
grey braid. This gives the little loose
coat heavier look; and, If it is suit
ably lined and worn with furs it is
a very comfortable coat indeed. Being
loose it is much warmer than the skin
tight coat, which is not warm at all.
Box coats are worn all lengths; you
positively cannot go amiss in the length
of your coat. A length to the waist is
very natty; then there is medium
length which is called the box driving
coat; and, finally, there is the long
loose coat nearly to the street, which
is known as the automobile. The auto
mobile may be slightly fitted at the
back, but the front must be loose and
inclined to fly open and display the
beautiful satin lining which is feat
ure of the coat.
The long pointed cape has sleeves fol
winter, reminding you Of dolman
They are so neatly fitted at the Shout
ders that they give very pretty out
line. They follow the line Of the arm
and are very full at the hand, showing
a ripple six inches deep. To modern
eyes these pointed cloaks look very ole
fashioned, but there is something com
Portable about them which commends
them to the wearer.
While there are many fur coats worn
