too little thought and consideration.
For when is woman more fascinating
than in such toilette?
1t is built OF satin; rose satin and rose
chiffon of deeper hue. The satin is
fitted perfectly to the figure on Princesse
lines. There is long soft train of

heading.
This tlounce stops on either side of
the front of the gown to make way

BEAUTIFUL GOWNS, SHE CLAIMS HAVE A
RlFINING INFLUENCE.
There was time not very long ago
when the we'll dressed woman ranked
with fool-tbat is, in the early Ameri-
can mind.
Dainty, lovely clothes and brsiny,
clever women were held to be an impos.
sible combination.
From the early American point Of
view, woman, apparently, must needs
be Frou-Frou. or a clever trump. A
happy medium seemed quite out of the
question.
For really intelligent woman to s'oop
to interest herself seriously in such a
frivolous subject as art in dress was to
be taken az an open confession that her
intelligence was not the real thing
Happily the demand for all things beau
tiful that feed the eye and fill the mind
is increasing every minute. for which
Allah be praised. Environment is one
of the most potent factors in life.
To live in an atmosphere of beautiful,
artistic things has as much influence
towards refining ones nature as living
. in an atmosphere OF beautiful, kindly
thoughts has towards developing oue's
soul.
One clever woman, we'll gowned, can
give more pleal ure, inflict more pain and
WELD more power generally than a
whole legion of frumps, top-heavy with
gray matter.
There is still any number OF people
who have had no modern improvements
added to their cerebral apparatus. and
they will not agree with me.
The fact remains, however, that every
day one meets more and more clever
women. and the cleverer they are the
more perfectly they are turned out.
American women, as class, have
made tremendous strides in mastering
the intricacies Of the art Of dress. the
last few years, and they are arriving at
a thorough understanding of its power
so rapidly that all the old jokes about
Mother Hubbards." "curl papers" and
the like. that no funny paper ever al
lowed itself to be without, are as obso-
lete as Sanscrit.
Even the progressive shop girl real
lied long ago that it is good appear
ance, coupled with fair ability, rather
than true worth, coupled with dowdi-
ness, that gets her low salary raised.
She knows, too, that when she is abe
to couple true worth with good ap-
pearance she has an excellent chance to
raise to position where she can raise
the salaries of others.
Nowhere was this prejudice against
taking the art Of dress seriously, as one
would any other art, stronger or more
deeply rooted than on the stage.
The women of the stage then held
themselves far above all art not their
own.
A very charming actress. albeit Of the
early American school, and thoroughly
above feminine fripperies. once said to
me. in a most superior manner: "Oh,
you know, only the women who can't
act bother to dress we'll on the stage"
Now she says with some bitterness
and much enthusiastically, she
happeps to be out Of an engagement:
"a woman does not need to act in these
days. All she has to do is to 60 on and
wear good Clothes" One statement is
as absurd as the other.
Surely, as 1 reminded her, the divine

Anti-Alcoholic serum.

At recent meeting of the Paris
academy of medicine a paper was pre-
scented by three prominent French
chemists setting forth the discovery
of so-called anti-alcoholic serum.
The basis of their discovery is the fact
that in alcoholic intoxication the pre-
liminary stage is one of liberation for
the poison. The microbes, however,
when taken into the system form anti
toxins which, when injected into an
other organism, place that organism
in a condition of being able to resist
the corresponding poison,

the war department has adopted a
