woMAN,s WORK IN THE EAST

Ellis Meredith in Ainslee's for August
Unique is the New England Women's
Educational Industrial union which has
a string of good deeds to its credit
longer than it's name. 1t does all kinds
Of class work, and wrestles with other
knotty problems besides Among other
things, it has a system of dealing with
the Servant girl question that is the
result of much experience. When a maid
applies for a place they take her refer
by the several ladies for whom she has
worked. They also make a note of her
remarks. if she has any TO make, on the
peeuliarities Of the households in which
she has been employed. In this way they
are able to learn why Mrs. Jones can
never keep a girl, and also why Mary
Jane only stays three weeks in a place.

The ankle-length skirt or the one just
escaping the ground, which is so gener-
ally worn by women this summer, Is
ideal for travelling. In linen or the
lighter cloths it is especially adaptable
and for short distances many women
are seen wearing the walking skirt Of
white pique or duck. Worn with cot
tom skirt Of good cut and a linen collar
or stock that may be replaced from the
travelling bag with a fresh one toward
the journeys end, the girl traveller -
nicely equipped for a voyage
Then for a longer journey on which a
more elaborate gown may be desired for
wear in the dining car or saloon of q
steamer this years summer maiden has
the jaunty dust cloak. than which nota-
ing was devised smarter or more beco:u-
ing for woman'S wear. The dust cloakS
come in the familiar English backed
model, but the newer ones nave the back
curved in slightly at the waist. In dar
colored taffeta silk these coats are par
ticularly pretty. They fail to the very
hem of the gown, completely covering Ii
and saving it from dust and at the same
time they are so dainty finished and
stitched, oftentimes with white, that they
make tall, slim woman look like a
picture.
Hats for travel this year give women
an endless variety to choose from. The
broad Panama alpines wreathed with a
scarf of silk or crash are picturesque,
and the jaunty little piQue hats with
white pompon tilted over the brow are
becoming to nine out OF ten women. It is
a white year and hats as well as gloves
show the tendency, while of white COWS
there is no end.
But gloves have been abandoned this
year, and even in travelling, when the
hands are subject to much danger Of con-
tact with grimy rails and dusty ca
chairs, one sees the very familiar fashion
of the sleeve rolled to the elbow. Wom-
en- do not wear many jewels when they
travel, except perhaps scarf pin or one
of the gold seal rings that are now so
fashionable. Nor does woman pack her
gems in her trunks. If she has a maid
they are given into her charge in a bag;
her smaller gems into a chamois bag
which she wears beneath her bodice sus-
pended about her neck.
The frivolous little jeWeled purse has
disappeared and also the pocketbook hold
aHuring in the hand to attract the foot
pad. In place of these the girl who
| travels now wears a silver-linked bag
| firmly fastened to her belt, In which she
| carries her ticket and the necessary cash
| to see her to her destination
| No longer does the tourist girl load her
| self down with luggage. There are boxes

DEVICES FOR COOLING THE AIR.

There are several devices that may be
used to cool the air during the dog days,
writes Maria Parloa in the Ladies' Home
Journal for August. "A modified form OF
the tattie employed III India for this
purpose could be made in any country
house. On frames like those used for
window screens tack enough narrow tapes
to make a support for q thick bed Of
grass. Now cover with long grass fasten-
ed to the frame by sewing with Irvine.
These screens should be placed in the
windows and kept wet. The air passing
through them is cooled garden syringe
may be used to spray them with water.
Three or four OF these screens will do
a great deal toward keeping the air in
the house cool and fresh. A simpler
screen may be made by covering a frame
with coarse flannel. which should be kept
wet 1t is not so effective as the grass
screen, and the flannel dries more quick
1y than the grass A still simpler device
is to have wet flannel from time to time
Some of the moisture may be removed
from the atmosphere by placing large
Jumps of quicklime in earther bowls

would supply the entire wardrobe of the
average American girl for one year at
least. AS to it's pattern, fancy the bodice
very much bloused in front and inset
with pointed vest in costly lace. Broad
bands of lace cross the shoulders and
extend down the sides of the balloon
sleeves, while the skirt, tucked over tho
hips, is shaped with bands of lace inser-
ton and plaits. A very full lace trimmed
hounce flares about the lower part Of the
skirt, while the muslin and lace sash
falls almost to the ground.
