A Shirh wnIst Point.

A small item that goes toward the
making up Of the human world has
been at last converted toe the beauty
of the shirt waist for outdoor city
wear, in one instance at least
While the majority Of fair ones look
as If dressed by charity when abroad
in mismatched clothing, the fair one
in question was a treat to the eye.
A fine white shirt waist was worn
with her black skirt, and q long, soft
white mull tic concealed the choppy
line between waist and skirt, A mod
crate black bonnet, with natural-col-
ored straw trimming rested upon the
wearers soft white hair. Here was
one who did not look in undress even
in a trolley car.
But some do stll insist that the most
of us look positively queer in the shirt
waist as it usually figures; if 1t Is
chosen with some thought of the skirt
it is often very well, but in most cases
the wearers should not fail to take
their little jackets along for the sake
of appearance If not for comfort.
Worn MS it was designed to be, tc
protect the jacket or blouae suit from
coming i'm direct contact with the skin
the washable shirt waist is a wonder
of cleanliness and elegance, hut used
with any old skirt to elk out q suit
it doesn't count even this may
be done with fine effect if the samC
piece of goods be chosen and the whol'
of a good cut.-Philadelphia Record.

new things seen on the pretty new

some reason for if, as Sunday has
usually, by comparison, been with her
a day of rest and she Is better pre-

has maids Sunday is with them q
fatlguing day, for besides the dinner

when the next morning comes for
such hard work as washing, and 1t

If the tasks of some other day of

day perhaps it would be good

pertinent. IT, for instance, the halls
and sleeping rooms were swept and
busted, leaving the parlOrs and other
rooms OF that sort to be attended TO,
as before, on Friday, so as to he fresh
for Sunday. it would divide heavy

could be secured, or the closets and
the refrigeratOrs cleared and cleaned
Then the clothes could be picked up
sorted, put to soak, and Tuesday river
to the wash with more strength OF

The fact is the wash is such a dis
/ agreeable affair that both mistress anC
maid are eager to get it out of tht
way; and even this could be mendet
by an outdoor wash-house or laundry
with fire and boiler. Then, where tht
means permit the hire of a washer
