a society who knows her
world says that the fashion OF riding
astride viii undoubtedly obtain vogue
IN the very near future, and II a con-
ventlOnal costume had been definitely
decided upon this summer would have
seen the radical change. Opinions so
far. however, are rather at variance.
not about the ultimate outcome Of the
discussion, for that seems n foregone
conclusion, but as to what dress will
finally be adopted by the fashionable
set. Smart women are decidedly op-
posed TO the divided skirt, which they
say makes one ridiculous.
at reminds me OF my aunt when l
was a little girl" said a matronly wo-
man. ''She was altogether too genteel
TO say legs; she called them limbs. To
have long, Hopping ends to hang over
our limbs seems to me absurd" she
continued. "Either do the thing SEN
sibly or not at all. say l."
The costume which obtains the most
favor and which will probably ultl-
mately be adopted Is a long cont, cut
ike a mans cover coat, coming to just
below the knees. the legs being incased
IN the regulation riding boots. When
mounted. the coat, which, Ike mems
coats, has a slit In the back, hangs
only a little shorter than the fashion
able riding skirt Of today and when the
fair equestrlenue dlsmounts Is nearly
as long as a short golf skirt. Nothing
could be more modest or suitable for
those who. FOR safety aud comforts
sake. have elected to defy prejudice
aud ride like men. As time goes ON the
long moOted dress reform movement
seems. IN the fashionable world at
least. TO resolve itself into a question
Of suitability. And the next decade

Long years ago il Was the custom,
both In Italy and France, for lace col
lars and ruhs, hair nets. scarfs and
sashcs to be jeweled deliberately with
precious stones, as many old portraits
conclusively prove. In the time OF the
directolre, however. when absolute sim
plicity led the yogue. the fashion for
wearing lace that was set with jewels
died out altogether. 1t has lately oc-
Cured, however. to Mrs. Nevill Jack
son. the authoress of "a History Of
Handmade Lace" ard herself n great
lover of lace, that 1t might be possible,
in view of the present admiration for
real lace and appreciation Of It's beau
ties, to revive this picturesque fashion.
That Mrs. Eevlil Jackson has every
prospect Uf seeing the prompt fulGll-
ment OF her project seems more than
likely. to judge from the beautiful spec
imens OF gem incrusted lace which
were shown under her auspices and di-
rectlon at the Quest gallery. Here may
be seen, for instance, n yoke or square
collar Of venetian point lace set with
turquolses and a bodice trimming Of
brussels point set with sapphires, while
as n hair ornament there is 4 butterfly
Of black chantilly lace set with rose
diamonds and flushed with sapphire
ana diamond antcnnn. Lace forms,
after ali, an Ideal background for pre-
cious stones Of every color and kind,
and when we admire at the Quest gal
lery, as we fain must do, n dainty fan
Of white lace set with t%urquoises or q
long scarf of black chantllly, the ends
Of which are jewelCd with diamonds
ana pearls, VIC can only wonder that so
beautiful q form Of ornamcntation
should ever have been neglected or al
lowed to fall out OF fayor.-PaIl Mail

Now that ribbons are worn in such
profusion by young and old, rich ana
poor, It may be an interesting fact to
many to know that they can be cleans
ed with very little trouble and made TO
look like new. or course the better the
quality OF the ribbon the better It will
cleanse.
I know q lady with q very slender
purse whose ribbons for neck and belt
are always dainty and fresh, and yet
she Informed me n day that they are
washed many times before they are
discarded. And this Is The way she
does Il:
Upon n fat. clean board-great stress
was laid upon tie word clean-she
fastens her ribbon tightly. She then
mixes half a tcaspoonful Of ammonia
with half a cupful Of water and a little
soap. She dips a piece Of white cloth
In this mixture and sops the ribbon
lengthwise, wrlnging the cloth often.
She continues this process until the
dirt is absorbed from that side of the
ribbon. Then she turns it and washes
the other side in the same way.
When all the dirt has been extracted,
the ribbon is left TO dry upon the
board. 1t then may be placed between
two pieces of thin paper ana pressed
with an iron, moderately hot, but often
the pressing will not be found neces,
sary.-Table Talk.

Every woman wants TO be in the
style, says Katherine b. Child In The
American Kitchen Magazine, but no
woman should attain this end by sacri-
fcing to the prevailing fashion the
beauties nature has given her. Many q
plain woman would be attractive If she
would be content to wear the styles
and shades that were becoming, thus
adapting the fashion to her face and
figure, instead Of trying TO adapt her
face and figure to the fashion. No two
human beings are alike; so no two
dresses should be alike. For instance,
take the prevailing style Of today,
which Is trailing skirts. rufnes and
even overskirts, small sleeves, high col
lars and bows with long ends. Trailing
skirts are becoming to almost any one,
but ru1ies TO the waist are not becom-
Ing 10 the short and dumpy person.
Let the tall, graceful woman ruhle her
skirt to the waist and look well, while
the short, stout woman has a small
gored rufie across the bottom of the
skirt, thus making the most OF every
inch of height nature has given anC
yet obtaining the desired effect of be
ing in fashion without being a fashion
plate.

In Reforming Girls.

Over 200 girls have been rescued at
1.-THE Anchorage" in Elmira, N. Y, of
which Mrs. Helen L. Bullock is the di-
rector. The work in that city started
when some women secured n police ma
iron to care for girls taken to the sta
lions. At the present home 20 girls
are accommodated, and they may be
kept from one to three years. The girls
are not permitted to tell each other
their last names, where they come from
or what they are there for. This is for
their protection. The managers say
they have no difficulty In finding homes
for the girls in good families. A school
is held every afternoon, the common
branches of study being taught, besides
cooking and sewing. There is also a
self culture club. Six Of the graduates
were married last year, and In the last
five years only two Of those who have
left the home have failed.
