Woman as n "vine."

Philadelphia Times.
Sometimes / wonder how the notion was
ever started that woman plays the part of
the clinging vine in the scheme of nature.
More often she is a prop
just let a man get a little depressed, or
blue, or discouraged, and straightway he
rushes off to some woman to be bolstered
up. He must be propped or he'll collapse
entirely, and she, with cheeriness. tact,
ana announcement stiffens him up and
sets him forth once more with firm step
On the highway of life.
If the youthful lord of the house hurts
his finger or tears his clothes or otherwise
meets with misfortune, to whom does he
go for sympathy and comfort? To his
mother or sister or aunt every time. Did
you ever near of boy going to his father
when in such straits?
IL a man is elated over some public
recognition of his merits, he may treat
his friends in honor of the event but
he goes TO woman for the appreciation
that warns the cookies of his heart She
says those charming little things that
crafty his vanity. She tells him it's no
more than he deserved; that she always
knew he had it in him to do great things
and forth and more of it. He grows
very giant in his own estimation under
the genial warmth of such delicate flat
terry, and goes forth inspired to do twice
as much in this new field as he originally
intended.
And If he is sick-how does the wine

ing but the suggestion of a headache, he's
sure brain fever is coming on from over
work and that he'll die In q few short
hours: Does she cling and lament and
fold her hands helplessly? Not much.
She coddles him and bathes his head and
trots up and down stairs with all manner
or dainty dishes and sits up half the
night making him comfortable and telling
him how heroically he bears his pain. And
when he does get up again. she says how
brave and devoted he is to go to bust
ness when he is suffering so. and thus
propped up he goes forth feeling that he
is indeed an example of courage and
fidelity worthy of an increase of salary.
He tells his brother clerks how frightfully
he suffered but the thought of the accu-
mulating work brought him out before he
was really able And IL he talks enough
ABOUT III. ne may impose on ms employer
sufficiently to get raise of salary be-
cause he is such faithful, hard-work-
ing man"
And after all, it was the prop, known
TO all men as the vine that really did it.

Home and street Costumes.

Harper's Bazaar.
Most important in the way of being we'll
gowned is the advice to wear different
gowns for street and house wear. A woman
in New York who is noted for being well
gowned and who is known not to have a
great deal of money was asked by an init
mate friend how she managed TO look so
smart She answered frankly that the rea-
was that she possessed but four gowns
and had possessed but those four for two
winters. One was tailor-made black street
gown, another black satin evening gown
with two waists, a high and a low one, a
tea gown made of an old ball gown. and a
smart matinee With her street gown she
had two skirts, short and long one.
She had not bought for two years a single
article of dress She had provided herself
at that time-two years ago-with quite
stock of boots, shoes and slippers, and also
stockings. She was, of course. woman
who was instinctively neat, but she claimed
that Ii was by wearing the proper clothes
at the proper time and keeping them in
good order that she was able to go out in
society as she did and yet look so we'll
gowned that her appearance never failed TO
elicit some complimentary remark.

the Elton just covers the top of il. The
tops of the skirts made in this way run up

| The woman IN black will, In nine cases

goods. Grenadines have been brought out
In a host OF patterns. and IN prices ranging
from 81 TO Sl2 yard. There is one thing
about a grenadine that makes ii servicea-

A handsome grenaaine can be worn winter
and summer for social affairs where sucn

now.
The embroidered grenadines are beauti-
full Some have small distinct figures scat
tered over the grenadine surface; others
have an all-over pattern every whit as
beautiful as lace. Indeed, such gown
would be quite as handsome as lace frock
and lar less costly. Some have toucn OF

signs OF the season, and very pretty IL Is

fashion as cordially as of yore, some ex-
ceedingly pretty fabrics are brought out
in this weave suitable for spring and sum-
mer wearing. In the mohair creponS we
have an exceedingly lightweight fabric
with all the good qualities of mohair and
with the rich raised effects of crepon.
Though heavy looking, it is in reality
thin, light fabric. The silk and wool Gre
pons have not the witness of mohair, but
they are equally light in weight and rich in
appearance.
There are MANY other fabrics however
besides these that stand high in fashions

similar weaves are in great demand by
women who dress well. Neither are such
old friends as whipcord, Venetian, broad

being built into frocks for spring and sum-
mer wear for Philadelphia best dressed
women. Serge and cheviot we always have
with us, and all these old-time favoriteS
will be worn. But the dressy black gown
this summer will undoubtedly be of grena-
dine.
VI course each season sees some novel
ties brought out. Among the prettiest this
year is a fine black cloth perforated all
over its lustrous surface with tiny eyelet
holes. Some of these cloths have merely
bands of the perforations for trimming
purposes, in which case the holes are usual
ly larger. Made up over a black taffeta

baskets of sandwiches, one lot made from
finely chopped chicken or mutton. seasoned
according TO the meat; another of fruit

Have your little tea kettle at hand, or your
alcohol stove where your chocolate may be
reheated. as your family or guests come in.
Have no set hour for such meal but let
each one help himself when he feels that
he needs to eat. Menus for suppers and
teas are frequently too long-too heavy.
Persons with weak digestion cannot eat
them, especially after a late dinner; and
as indigestion is not an uncommon COM
plant, suppers are going out of fashion,
and L trust that ere long they will be
among the things of the past.

No deeds OF fame enshrined his name,
No laurel wreath or bay.
And yet he made earth happier:
He whistled the way,
When sorrow frowned and stars were drowned
In stormy skies and gray,
He saw the light stream through the night;
He whistled on the way.
And even grief found sweet relief,
Hope shed brighter ray.
And hearts he knew not blessed him
For whistling on the way.
And when from life's dark shadows
He passed into the day.
They wrote above this line OF love
He whisted the way.''
