Tho girl who never before wore silk
stockings wears them this season. 1t is
in the ARA statement less improper than
It sounds. Women have suddenly devel-
oped q mania for fancy and beautiful
hosiery. and the stocking counter of
good shop would make a rainbow feel
faded. The open-worll stockings have
reached a point OF 1ilminess that is more
marvellous than beautiful. and the most
modish women prefer fine silk in solid
color, northumberland or with inset lace
or applique over the ankle One woman
at Newport has started a fad for plain
silk stockings in one solid color and with
the owners monogram eXquitely embroid-
cred on the ankle, and stocking embroid-
cry is becoming a favorite fancy work
of the summer girl. 1t is prophesied, too,
that next Christmas, instead of a deluge
of embroidered suspenders and dress shirt
protectors, men will receive dainty boxes
of silk hose, each pair embroidered at
the tops in front with elaborate mono
grams. OF course, the men would rather,
far rather, have bright purple hose Zig
gagged with scarlet lightning, but they
will have to endure the affliction the best
they can.

A fashionable woman living near Phil
adephia recently gave dinner in honor
of her daughters enga cement, and after
it was over 1t was pronounced a splendid
success in every respect. She decided to
have scarlet for all her decorations, and
she chose as the flower that was easiest
to procure and most effective to manage
in red geranium.
Her centerpiece was arranged in the
form of heart. A tinsmith easily man.
ufactured a pan four inches high in the
shape she wanted. This was closely filled
with her chosen flower and trailing vines
were deftly arranged to conceal the pan.
You have no idea, unless you have tried
1t, what charming ooloring scarlet and
green makes on white napery.
For every man there was a boutonniere
Of scarlet geranium against a leaf of the
variety that is called sweet" Corsage
bouquets of the same flower tied with
scarlet ribbons were at the other places.
The candle shades, of course. were scar
let. The place cards were flaming hearts,
with names on them in black, outlined
with gold, and, whenever 1t was posi-
BILE the color was carried out IN the
dishes that were served.

1t happened, says the London Tele-
graph, at a hotel not far from the IA
NOUS, busy Strand. He was man OF
serious Intentions and numerous atteu-
tons and size was rich and wedable. On
Monday night he was there, ana they sat
in the hall under the stairway 1t was
nook for lovers. There wasn't a soul in
sight, and he thought his golden oppor-
tunity had arrived. Down he Topped
upon his knees and clased her hand.
Dear one" he whispered, not very
loud, but loud enough. Il have loved you
with the whole strength and ardour OF
mans nature, when it IS reused by all
that is pure and good and lovely In wo-
man, and I can no longer restrain my
pent-up feelings / must let you know
what is in my heart, and tell you that
never yet has woman heard from my
lips the secrets that are throbblng and
-"
Just then a rustic was heard on the
stairs above them, and a card fastened
to a thread swung down and dangled not
two inches from the lovers nose. On 1t
were these portentious words: II am
something of a liar myself"
Then the awful truth flashed upon him
and he fed. AS he went out of the door
sixteen girls at the head OF the stairs
sent sixteen laughs out into the damp
night air after him. He makes no love in
hotels now.

Although II may seem paradoxical to
say so, the average Frenchwoman spends
both more and less on her clothes than
does the English sister. To give an ex-
ample: The young French matron COM
lowance, will generally manage at any
given moment to look as well turned out
as does a very rich friend. The reason
for this is not far to seek, considering that
she goes to the same dressmalker and DAYS
very much the same price; but whereas
the wealthy Frenchwoman will, of course,
indulge herself in any number of pretty
costumes, she who is compelled to study
economy will vigorously restrict herself
to three, or perhaps, four frocks year
or these. two Will probably be home
made. Thus 1t will be seen that the fem
mime half of the French nation has real
lied the two principles of economy, and
ID is from necessity rather than from
choice that so many French girls early
become really good dressmakers, and even
the most frivolous Parisienne is very gen
erous in allowing her friends to copy her
garments.
The pretty widow
There was a pretty widow.
With a string of handsome beaux,
Who told her Of their longing
So the story goes.
She had a perfect figure,
And wore a graceful skirt
While round her waist a silver belt,
Set Off her dainty shirt.
Her hair was richest auburn,
Her eyes a changing gray
Her lips like the ripe red cherry,
l held the other day.
But she was heartess woman,
The true and artful nirt,
That takes all hearts as pastime
To crush and screly hurt.
