W0lnen's Work.

In many respects southern women
seem less afraid of being called radi-
cal than their eastern sisters, and 1t
will not be surprising if the ballot
should come to them long before it is
welded by the women of the central
eastern and New England states.
That it will come is as certain as that
the republic is to endure. 1t is i'm
possible to doubt one without ques-
tioning the other.
The experience of Georgia women
during the past year is such as to
drive them pollward, willynilly They
had three pet measures which they
advocated in their legislature as ably
as they could. and when it is remem-
bered that Rebecca Douglas Lowe,
the gracious and accomplished presi-
dent of the General Federation, lives
in Atlanta, as does also Mrs. John X.
Ottley one of the most brilliant club
women of the whole country, it is not
to be supposed for an instant that ''in-
fiuence" did not have an opportunity
to show it's work.
The bills were strictly humanitar-
ian in character, except, possibly,
that to admit women to the state
textile school. The other raised the
age of consent Git is now ten years.,
and the third prohibited the employ
ment of children under II years of
age in the factories. All three bills
were defeated.
In Illinois the women passed bill
for the better accommodation of
women students at the state universi-
ty and the colleges, and it was vetoed
by the governor
In Vermont the federation had a
bill introduced asking that women be
appointed on boards of control of the
asylums where women are confined.
This unreasonable CD demand was
slain forthwith.
If men wish to keep women out of
the pool of politics they will do we'll
to make haste and give them all they
ask along these lines, for there is no
other way to stay their advance.
Already the small edge of the wedge
has made it's way far into the oak
of resistance.
In wyoming, Colorado, Utah and
Idaho women have full suffrage, in
cluding vote for presidential elec-
tors.
In Arkansas and Missouri women
may vote on petition on the grant
ing of saloon licenses.
In Delaware municipal suffrage ex-
! lists in several towns.
In Kansas there is full municipal
| suffrage.
In Montana women may vote on
| local taxation.
| In a number of cities in New "prlS
they may vote on the issuance of
bonds for public Improvements.
In Pennsylvania women may vote
on local improvements by petitioning
for or against them.-Ainslee's Maya

The Winters Wraps.

From Paris comes the intimation
that pelerines are to be the mode next
winter. Some are to be long and
draped, having one end thrown over
the shoulder and fastened with a gold
buckle. They may be lined with
white or black taffetas and be cascad
ed to show the lining Some of these
mantles will have no collar, but will
be bordered with a shaped strapping
of black and gold embroidery or vel
vet around the throat. Bell-shaped
sleeves will be worn or the mantle
may have a cascaded drapery from the
shoulders. Then there will be fichu-
like wraps which will cross in front
and fasten behind with sashes of
mousseline. To bridge the chasm be-
tween such radical departures from
the present mode of wraps there will
be jacket mantlettes in white or
colored taffetas incrustcd with lace

her good wishes.
In the old days he had often smiled
at her earnestness, and called her a
little Puritan in later times he had
ragged at her as a hypocrite.
Do hypocrites look like that?
What did it matter what he called
her? His one wish now was that she

With infinite difficulty he found his

Austin's.

as you can. Eva sacrificed herself for
me- | told her that | cared for you,
that is why she wrote that letter. At
terward, when she was i'll, l sent back
your letters without her knowledge
The lines jumped up and down be-
fore the sick mans eyes; he read on:
Eva wanted to put things right be-
tween you and me; that is why she
sent for me before you left. Didn't
you guess? She found out her mis-
take before you came and took all the
blame on herself to shield me. You
will never forgive me, shouldn't, but
I can't bear to think that you are still
misjudging her."

Sandals are being worn by English
women and children to some extent
a fact which calls forth the following
communication to the London Daily
Mail:
I can speak with 10 years expert
ence of sandals. The chief objection
l have seen urged against them is
that they will enlarge the feet. Now,
| do not believe that any footwear,
short of such as has inflicted cruelty
in infancy, can possibly alter the
size of the foot. which necessarily
depends on the bone structure of the
individual. 1t will invariably be
found that the person with neat, we'll
shaped hands has feet to correspond.
If allowing the feet to have the free
play that nature intended them to
have is apt to make them large and
ungainly, then sailors. who spend
most of their time and do most of
their work on bare feet. and who
hitherto have always been famous for
their neat and well-shaped ones, will
have to abandon their claim to this
coveted possession.
l have heard it objected that san
dals tend to make the foot sensitive
and unfit to bear boot when the lat
ter has to be worn. | have found in
my own case and in the cases of
friends that feet accustomed to san
dals grow healthier skin. their
nerves become less sensitive to pres
sure and their muscles and tendons
gain more power of contraction.
Everyone will allow that sandals
are the coolest foot-covering for sum-
mer, but doubtless most people will
be surprised to learn that they are
the warmest wear in winter. If per-
sons suffering from cold feet or chill
blains would wear sandals over good
thick woolen socks they would soon
find themselves cured of these affiic-
tions.

Wolnan's sDouble-Breasted Basque.

The tight fitting, well shaped basque
is always in style for appropriate ma
terials, and suits some figures far bet
ter than any other model. The stylish
May Manton example illustrated in the
large engraving is cut on the latest
lines, and includes the newest collar
and cuffs. AS shown the material is a
novelty woven of silk and wool that
includes varying shades of tan and
brown, the collar and cuffs are of vel
vet in the darkest tone. but all wool
en- materials of light or moderate
weight are appropriate, camels' hair,
broadcloth, cheviot serge and the like.
The basque is cut with sidebacks
and under-arm cores that mean a per-
feet adjustment at the back and with
double darts at the front that curve
ir snugly to the figure. The right
side is extended to give double
breasted effect that is both smart and
becoming. The sleeves are snug fit
ting. finished with flaring cuffs, and at
the neck is deep turnover collar, the
use of which is optional.
To cut this basque for woman Of
medium size three and five-eighth
.rds of material twenty-seven inches
wide, one and five-eighth yards forty
four inches wide or one and a half
yards fifty inches wide will be re-
quired.

The "Give Away" Sleeve.

A good Judge of lady's dress says
she can tell by glance whether a
gown be true tailor-made or whether
it has been fashioned by feminine
fingers. The sleeves are supposed to
give the information. Tailors, as we
all know, cling to the masculine ideal
of a coat sleeve, not tight, indeed, but
sufficiently close fitting. On the other
hand the dressmaker. French, Irish.
English or American, is strongly pref
udiced in favor of flowing sleeves. un-
dersleeves, balloon puffs on shoulder
or elbow-in short, of every possible
vagary in the name of a sleeve.

For the "Muddv Skim"

OF the many remedies for skin
blemishes the one that is simple,
easily obtained and efficacious. with
out tedious waiting for cure. is the
one sure to be appreciated. Nothing
frets a woman like a rough, muddy
skin, but with this simple cure-all re-
lief may be obtained at short notice.
Wash the face in very SALTY sweet
milk every night. and let it dry with
out wiping. A mixture made of one
small tablespoonful of milk and tea
spoonful of salt applied to the most
obstinate blemish of the skin will
cure it almost like magic. This is
the remedy prescribed by one of the
best authorities in England, and it is
said that the use of milk and salt is
half the secret of the Englishwomans s
smooth, beautiful skin.

RIDING IN A MOTOR VEHICLE.
How 1t Feels to Gaze Through Goggles on
Landscape That Rushes at You.

How 1t Feels to Gaze Through Goggles on
Landscape That Rushes at You.
Until the other day my experiences
of motor riding had not been worth
mentioning. ] had been on a motor,
of course, both here and over the way,
and had seen something of its capa-
bilities of upsetting, not merely my
self and other people. but the idea
| had entertained of the relations of
time and space. Still, the most | had
seen a motor do in the vicinity of
Faris had been done at the rate OF
two-something miles an hour, while.
in London, where, as yet, its per-
formances are viewed with less in
dulgent eye, one-something per hour
had been about it's record. However,
| had been offered the opportunity of
seeing the veteran fairly extended
as one used to say of horse; and,
as am still fond Of new experiences,
| closed with the offer.
The first thing l learned was that
you cannot ride a motor, when extern
sion is contemplated, without GER
tain prescribed mode of habiliment:
and thus, l presently found myself in
goggles and tapped cap, constructed
to tie under the chin, and a water
proof jumper. In this guise | was pro-
nounced ready for the road and we
took it. 1t is unnecessary to recount
what the particular road was that we
took to- Suffice it that at that ma
tutinal hour we had it pretty well To
ourselves and that it's condition was
not unfavorable to free and easy loco
motion. So, from one-something the
motor got into two-something, and
that process Of extension was gradu-
ally continued, until, from the indica-
ton afforded by the milestones, | con-
cluded she must be doing nearer four
something than three.

the landscape generally took to be-
having in the way you will find re-
corded in the late laureate's "Amphi-
on" The use of goggles, cap, a wa
terproof jumper and apron were now
quite satisfactorily explained to me.
The use of tobacco had even earlier
become first inadvisable, then impos-
sible. Any exchange of remarks was
attended with the inconvenience
which arises from abnormal pressure
cn the respiratory organs; and there
was present to marked degree that
titilation of the spinal cord which
sometimes has the effect of making
people seasick.

Queen Alexandra's Former Governess.
Queen Alexandra. in her early days,
in her royal fathers home in Copen-
hagen, was instructed in and care
fully taught English by Danish West
Indian lady. That lady, Miss Math-
ilde Knudsen, was born 70 summers
ago in one of King Christians lovely
West Indian colonies. the island of st.
Croix, where her father was planter.
Miss Knudsen, though not English
by BIRTH speaks that language with
perfect ease, and on the recommend
alton of the late Admiral Zarthman's
wife, whose husband belonged to the
Danish navy, she was selected to teach
the English language, not only to the
present Queen of England, but also
to the Dowager Empress of Russia,
the Duchess of Cumberland. Prince
Waldemar, and four of the crown
princes children, very distinguished
and highly agreeable task, in which
she acquitted herself in the most cred
liable manner, and the tokens of es-
TEEN which have since been bestowed
upon her by her royal and imperial
pupils have been numerous.
On her frequent visits to England
she has always been honored as a
guest at the Princess of Wales's
table. Miss Knudsen, now in the
evening of her life still resides in the
fashionable quarter of Copenhagen.

plea for a little more individuality in
dress, yet the tendency toward an
Irritating sameness seems more ap-
parent than ever. Taking an average

backs of the heads of nine women
Iut of ten look almost identical. the
hat tilted back to the same angle, with
the black velvet bow assuming the
same droop on the hair And every
neck that is not dressed plain and low
has the inevitable ruff of black and
white tulle, with long ends. which
leads one to believe these articles are
turned out by the gross. Yet just
now there is an endless variety in
pretty ruffles. and nimble fingers
might achieve excellent results by
manufacturing one somewhat out of
the common instead of accepting a
hard and monotonous pattern.-Pitts-
