A woman's Spring wardrobe.

Ladies' Home Journal.
The new spring gowns, made all of one
material and not with separate waists as
heretofore, will be much worn.
The separate waists will be of light silks
and muslins or other thin materials.
Almost all the new spring stuffs are of a
soft, clinging quality, which makes them
adaptable to the present style of gown
There are to be some lovely silk muslns
with punches of flowers and sprays OF
vines and buds worn.
The smartest shirtwaist will be made
tucked back and front from the neck down
and the tuckS will be rather wide than
otherwise. The great tendency is to make
the waist-line as long as possible in front
The tailor and walking skirts will barely
sweep the ground, and the long trains have
entirely passed away with the habit and
close-fitting backs.
The return of the hustle is heralded II
Is not large affair, but small, we'll shaped
Sleeves are still worn tight, and are much
trimmed. They are quite long, and the
smartest ones are made ending in a point
which covers the top of the hand to the
knuckles.
Collars are to be worn high, but not as
stiff as they have been.
The new hats are made of some fancy
straw braids, tulle, or silk nets of the most
fantastic shapes. Breasts, birds, wings and
feathers are much less worn, and you
can't have enough flowers.

The Ugly Girls Advantage.

Maxine Elliott, in Leslie's Weekly.
To a beginner with any serious ambition
beauty gives her prominence which her
inexperience and incomplete art cannot
justify, and when, with years of hard
work, her latent talents reach their dra-
matte fulfillment her recognition as an
artist is likely to be much more grudging-
ly given because, forsooth. everybody has
assumed she cannot develop. She is just
a beauty, and therefore, presumably, a
fool. The ugly girl who begins her career
at the same time, possessing no more abil-
ity than the beauty, has the advantage of
working out her salvation in comparative
obscurity-that is, she has no unfavorable
impressions to efface from the public mind
because IL has never even noticed her
struggling up step by step in the same liz
tie parts the beauty played with more or
less adverse comments. Finally the chance
that is worth while comes to the ugly girl
when she is properly equipped to take ad-
Vantage of 1t, and loi an artist is recog-
nized and the credit due her work is given
loved you in the part, you looked so beau
tiful." Emphatically, looking beautiful
never made an audience love player, and
she can lay the flattering JUNCTION to her
soul that something better than that
brought forth the compliment. even though
the giver did not recognize the fact
Beauty is a gift that will not let an actress
go far unless supplemented with the tenn
permanent, intelligence and industry re-
and the last three qualifications mean sue
cess.

Cecilia, who is the properest person out
side of Boston. and her dearest friend met
a beggar as they came from luncheon the
other day. The dearest friend is baddish
little woman, merry as a cricket and I'M
conventional as Dom Paul. though not pre-
cisely in the same way. She earns her own
living-earns a good one, too-allows no one
to pity her and dresses better than Cecilia
does with a wealthy husband to back her.
The beggar was a loathly old woman in a
dirty black hood, and Cecilia promptly an
swered her appeal with Il have no money
for you"
why, you have, too, and so have l."
sharply contradicted her friend.
When the beggar was enriched by dime
or SO, Cecilia demonstrated.
Don't you know better than to give a
beggar like that money? Don't you remem-
Der what they told US last Sunday about
the Associated Charities? Why, she will
spend 1t for drink"

that. Give them ten minutes of pleasure If
you can't give them anything else.
well, there's something in what you
say" said Cecilia. What impressed her
most was that there was something like
tears in the baddish little womans eyes.
II tell you, Cecilia, am just saving my
money so that if ever reach that woman's
condition can be drunk all the time
Shocking, wasn't IL? Yet, the proper Ce-

Shades of gray are charming in the new

The opening of the door to permit the
departure of a bride and groom has here
tofore been the signal for a general pelt-
ing with rice-a Chinese custom conveying
wishes for good health and prosperity
But this custom has been so abused with
vulgarity, often producing injurious re-
suits, that 1t is being discarded at the
weddings OF careful people, and showering
the bride with rose leaves or loose flowers
has been instituted. These flowers are then
again picked up and kept as souvenirs by
the guests.

woman should face the situation, what
ever IL be; discover, If there Is any flaw,
what has caused 1t. and then calmly and
gently, as her province is, see about setting
1t right. Half our worries spring from some
occult occasion which we may overcome,
and much OF our so-called nervousness,
Il is acknowledged, Is born In worry. Some
OF 1t comes from subtle springs, which are
located deep in the fountain of our being,
and these are often so incomprehensible to
our friends that they survey our weakness
with little patience.
Generations Of US. from Mother Eve down,

real gain in self-restraint. And self-re-
