The History of Etiquette.


Etiquette is form of fashion more i'm
portant than style In dress. for the reason
that the varying codes of manners have
influenced understanding changing the
cut of coat cannot be said to have done
When etiquette demanded that a gentle
man accept challenge or acknowledge
himself coward in the minds of his fellow
citizens 1t encroached sharply upon ethics:
now that it has gone out Of fashion to kill,
gentlemen find small difficulty in keeping
the sixth commandment. The less formal
etiquette becomes, the less wanton taking
or life there is among those who consider
good breeding Of consequence. AS the CIV
1llzed races now stand, either man or Wom-
an canrbe refined regardless Of shane of hat
he or she wears. This was true in any
century, but 200 years ago, and back Of
that period, gentleman and lady could.
according to approved etiquette, gobble
food with their hands from a common dish
set IN the center of the dining table and
nlled with the entire Fashionable bill of
rare prepared for the occasion. Gratefully
we now acknowledge such proceedings to be
bad FORM" and in so doing pronounce
ourselves two centuries removed from the
table manners Of swine and one point away
from that brute, no matter how similar tO
MIN our turn of mind may remain in some
other respects ~

THE EVER-GROWING SLEEVE.

The Empress Eugene Pattern is the
Very Newest.
Written for The Evening Star.
The very big sleeves that prevailed four
or five years ago have been restored to SUI
premacy once more by the simple device of
turning themselves upside down. The bal
looms of dress goods, that used to widen
feminine shoulders monstrously and fill the
caricaturist with joy, now swell and puff
and ripple and tuck, with perfectly amaz-
ing prodigality of decorative material about
the region of the wrist and forearm only.
Up at the shoulder all is close and smooth
as a mans coat sleeve; and, from an artis
tic standpoint, this exaggerated revival Of
the 1860 method of clothing the arm is
vast improvement on the ridiculous lego
mutton shapes that We're once our weak
ness.
The charm of the pear-shaped pattern on
which we now cut our sleeves lies in the in
finite decorative variations they permit.
Nowadays every spirited dressmaker is a
sort of virtuoso in sleeves and earns fame
among her patrons by inventing a special
bell and wrist pouch for every gown she
turns out. Because the spring and summer
gowns need not be crushed and bundled in
side protecting wraps all limit as to the size
of the bags and founces about the wrist
have been removed, and around about
Easter, when the new frocks get their first
airing, some sleeves Of positively prodigious
size will be seen.
Just to show what the tendency is like, a
group of three very characteristic sleeves
are given. One is made all of silk muslin
in perfect cascade of overlapping ruffies
that bell out below the elbow, and admit q
bag of soft chiffon to hang softly about the
hand. Another is a study in yelvet-strap-
ped crepe de chine puffs that emerge from
an embroidered taffeta sleeve, and the third
is especially designed TO show pretty hand
and is a verbatim copy from a gown worn
by the Empress Eugene.
Now the woman who looks upon such
sleeves with envious eyes, and cannot af-
ford dressmaker of genius sufficient to

.trtificinI Gems

A good many moralizers wonder how st is
that women who are by no means million
aires can afford the jeweled tlaras so many
OF them wear, or the necklaces and the
mass of glittering diamonds on the front OF
their bodices. A good many such ornaments
no doubt owe their existence to the fact that
the maker Of imitation Jewels has attained
the acme Of his art and is capable OF de-
ceiving the veriest connoisseur, but there
are many others that are real gems.
Not all the products Of the pearl fisheries
in the world could meet the wants of the
vast array Of women who are now wearing
pearl necklaces, and, even with diamond
clasps, many Of the collars are OF Roman
pearls. But nearly every woman In society
has splendid rings, watches covered with
precious stones, even opera glasses note
books and longhandled eyeglasses.
The slides for keeping stray ends OF hair
at the back in order are getting more and
more beautiful, and so are the side combs.
Some notable ones have been prepared in
jet. Though women plead poverty, appar-
emily they cannot deny themselves such
splendor as they deem essential for their
success in life.

which were early strawberries, imported
from Italy. The berries were in a box
wrapped in cotton and were not very nu-
1nerous, being rare luxury in that region
at the season. The host handed the bas-
ket to his guest, with an invitation to help
of fastidious tastes, and he eyed the fruit
askance. He suggested that the berries
would be more appetizing to him If served
in handSomer setting, and, taking the
box, he emptied it's contents into one of
the handsome pieces of gold-ornamented
glass. The fruit scattered over the dish,

GIfstening Effects.
The result was some beautiful dishes
over which lfe-size berries in glistening
iridescent enamel hide among golden
foliage. Each berry is spotted with points
Of gold that cause it to sparkle in the
light. 1t is as if Midas, disappointed in a
feast of berries, had pressed each bit of
fruit against the crystal and left it there
to glitter at the nineteenth century pluto
crat, who enjoy his berries untrans-
muted into gold.
Occult art is suggested in the small berry
or ice cream dish adorned with a flaming
golden sun. The design is oriental in it's
suggestion and, as the earliest gold deco
rated ware was brought from the east
ByZantium is said to have exceled in its
making-it is quite likely that the design
may have been copied from some old pat
terms. However, it is just the thing for
the fashionable oecultiStS who have money
to indulge their fads.

Lightweight Velvet.

OF late years there have been extraor-
binary improvements in the manufacture
Of various fabrics, more especially velvet
and silk, which now have a soft, sheeny
finish which does credit to the makers.
Velvet used to be a rather difficult ma
teriai to manipulate into those graceful
serpentine-like garments which are the
order of today. But fashion works her
will, and In the course Of time. therefore,
the manufacturers have been obliged to
turn their attention to the production of
the most sumptuous brocades, silks, satins
and velyets with the softest possible
finish.
! And nothing could be more beautiful than
that soft make of black and colored velvet
which Is used for both day and evening
gowns. OF course, the velvet utilized for
carriage wraps, opera cloaks and other
outdoor garments is another matter. That
such garments must indeed be costly is an

A Family Hint,
From the Atchison Globe,

When the children gather around your
table for their meals do they hear growls
about the dinner or gossip Of the neigh
bors, or an intelligent discussion of cur
members what his parents used to talk
about; it is one of the indelible memories
OF his childhood. 1t is very important
that children should not hear growing or
gossip.
