FASHION NOTES.
Where Lace is Helpful.

A lace overdress with deep yoke, shoulder finish or jacket to match is a most useful thing to have just now. The prettiest lace overdress is in shawl shape, the ends tying or folding high at the back, the point or round com ing below the knees in front. Such overdresses can be made from shawls, but do remember that good lace must be matched. It is a great temptation when looking over grandma's colec- ton to mix lace, but to do so is to ruin your credit with those who know and care about lace. Lace tops to gowns can be arranged on the make"over plan, too, and these still take the forms that extend over the shoulders, as in this picture, though dressmakers have stur-

NEW ORLEANS SOCIETY.
They who Are Once Received by II
Never Forget the Charm of Its
Perfect Social Life.

"The question that confronts the
Creole to-day" writes Harrydele Hall
mark of social life in New Orleans, in
the Ladies' Home Journal, "is, Will the
money of the Americans rule the city
socially in the beginning of the TWEEN
tieth century" While money rules less
in New Orleans than in any other city
of it's size in the United States, still a
certain amount is absolutely necessary
for person to keep up the exterior of
gentleman's position. Yet people of
good family and very limited means do
hold the best social positions, because
they have learned to give up the chatf
and spend their money on the wheat.
Again, people of no influence. as New
Orleans counts it, but who have plenty
of money, tact and social qualifications,
can obtain and have obtained good
standing. Blood and money together
are good; money and refinement are
not a specially favored condition, as are
the two others, for storming New Or
leans society; but any of the three
qualifications alone would have hard
time of it. Narrowing it down, it re-
mains that money alone cannot enter
New Orleans society to-day; refinement
alone cannot, but blood-well, it has
held and does hold the lead. The at
mosphere of New Orleans society, as
this century draws to a close, is con-
spicuously Partisan in manner, ardent
ly American in loyalty to the old flag,
warm-hearted to the visitor, reserved
in its inner life, pleasure-loving and
childlike in its g>yety. 1t offers to one,
in its social as ~tell as its physical life,
the heart of ripe, red pomegranate.
He who tastes n~ver forgets the charm.
He never forgets the red-roofed houses,
the chimes of cathedral bells, the en-
tresol where lives la Belle Creole, the
folk songs on guitar, the melodious
swing of French voices. nor the dark,
luxurious beauty of the women"

forewarned. but forearmed as we'll,
against this inevitable yearning on the
part of the lord of the manor.
The forewarning may come in the
form of a little wedding present - a
dainty, parchment-cOvered recipe book,
with decorations suitable to the occa-
sion. A suggestion in this direction is
offered in the cut; the old shoes fly
ing after the retreating wagon, with
"Things That His Mother Made" etched
across the page. The little book is
made of very heavy, unruled linen pa
per, with the cover of parchment paper
or the very heavy, rough paper that is
used for watercolor painting. The or
namentation may be done in whatever
medium one chooses - water color,
sepia or pen and ink.
Inside are to be written the recipes
for a lot of the good things his
mother used to make!" These can
quietly be procured from the mother
in question. Such little book will
add a bit of merriment to the bridal
gift-maldng, and may be made to
prove, as well, a source of practical as
sistance later on, when household cares
are assumed. ed.-Rural New Yorker.

THEIRS BY RIGHT.
An Allowance In Cash Is Not a Mere
Privilege But a Duty Par
ents owe to Girls.

If it be essential and necessary that
girls should be well acquainted with all
matters connected with the manage
ment of money, then there can be no
better method adopted for enabling
them to become thus acquainted with
those matters than by granting them a
weekly or monthly allowance of such
amount as their parents or guardians
may be able to afford. But if such an al
lowance is granted it should be given to
cover certain specified expenses, such
as dress and other personal necessities.
An allowance is not a mere privilege,
but in a certain sense, girls right. To
withhold it is an injustice not only to
the girl, but to the man whom she Ray
marry and whose money will be intrust-
ed to her care to spend wisely. Indeed,
it might be said without hesitation that
it is fathers duty to see that his
daughters not only understand the
value of money but the difficulty of
earning the same.
1t was the poet Young. a somewhat
dismal and lugubrious author, who told
us in his might Thoughts" that we
take no note of time but from its loss
and to this may be added that they only
know the value of money who have not
got any. a girl who caters for herself
will have an opportunity of showing her
individual taste and it gives her a feel
ing of f-reliance.-Chicago Daily

Managed Husbands worthless.

Helen Watterson Moody believes that
the husband who can be managed is not
worth managing, "and there is no better
principle" 'he adds. in the Ladies'
Home journal, for both husband and
wife TO adopt in adjusting themselves
to the new relation than that of trying
to do each by the other what men are
accustomed to call the square thing
Many woman understands managing
a husband better than she does doing
the square thing by him. and many
man understands and practices doing
the square thing by other men who
would be affronted if he were to be told
that, judged by his own business stand
ards, he habitually dealt unfairly with
his own wife"

sides gradually taper toward the lower
end, giving the sounding board a slant
ing position.
At the upper end of one side of the
instrument, near the head, is slot in
which the harmonica is inserted so that
its tunes when played will enter di-
rectly into the body Of the instrument
and emanate at the soundhole under
the strings.
Concerning a harmonica with a
sounding board over which are a series
of strings, changes the tone of the harp
and gives it exceptional volume and a
vibratory effect.
The strings are arranged in simple
open chords. In practice the instru-
ment is held vertically against the body:
the harmonica pressing the lips.
The air or tune is played upon the
harmonica and the chords upon the
strings with the thumb or a finger OF
the right hand, producing exquisite
harmony The tone of the mouth harp
is not only increased in volume, but pos
sesses a richness and mellowness before

NO ELECTION,

Harrisburg, Pa, April 20.-The great
battle for United States senator ended
Wednesday without an election, and
