PARIS HoNORs AMERICAN GIRL.
Miss Green of Brooklyn Receives
Medals from Art salon.

Medals from Art salon.
The people of this country are now accus-
toned to hear of the favors and distinctions
won by American girls at foreign courts be-
cause of their beauty and brightness, but it
is more of a novelty to see them awarded
medals by the French salon. OF this high
distinction, however, Miss Mary L. Green Of
Brooklyn, N. Y, has recently furnished us a
notable and pleasing example by receiving
from the salon the second medal Of honor In
recognition Of the excellence OF her paint
ing shown at the late exhibition. There are
but five other American artists who have
won this honor since the salon has been
opened. Miss Green has barely touched her
twenty-fourth year. She has pursued her
aim to become a great painter with in
domitable will and courage and now that
she is standing on a pinnacle It is interest
ing to know that her first attempt at Gre
alton was made when a child in Brooklyn.
Later, with her mother. she made her
way to the Latin quarter Of Paris, where
for five years she studied diligently under
one Of the greatest masters. Raphael Colin.
Even during the lazy summer time she took
no vacation from her work, but followed
her master out TO Fontenay-aux-Rosos.

altogether unique In modern art. In a
garden, luxuriAnt in exquisite flowers and
shut in by a high wall. NJ. Colin teaches his
pupils TO paint the nude. for 1t is his theory
that the opaleseent tints Of the flesh can
only be fully appreciated under the search
ing rays Of the sun. In this class Miss
Green proved herself to be his most prom
ising pupil.
Three years ago she returned TO this
country but not for a stay OF long dura-
tion. The old Latin quarter. with all its
dinginess. still appealed to her as the true
atmosphere for study and hard work. II
had, moreover. wound itself about her heart
strings. On her return there she and her
mother settled themselves at 10 Rue la
Verrier. in a charming apartment with one
of the most spacious and attractive a~teliers
Of the quarter. The painting which so
recently won for her a decoration is a

Autumn capes for evening drives, fetes,
concerts, etc, are made OF taffeta silk or
satin brocade-often a cream, cameo-pink
or very pale sea-green ground, figured with
small beautifully tinted flowers and leaves.
1t is said that buttons in great variety
are once more to be used-not merely as a
means OF fastening, but as ornaments. This,
II true, is to be regretted, for the vulgar
excess to which this fashion was carried in
times past was ridiculous.
simplicity" is the chief characteristic
of some of the daintily embroidered muslin
and batiste gowns of the summer, the
tucked organizes in white or delicate pastel
tints and similar airy creations sent from
France.

lied double-faced cashmere textiles received

delicate woods, lends itself admirably to
the making of gowns as they are now fash
A stylish French picture hat is made of
satin-braid Panama, with al open lace
straw edge. 1t is trimmed with a trail OF
hops, a handful of shaded oats, two large
nuts. The nuts are of the pale green un-
ripe color, with matching foliage. A frill
of moderately wide lace, edging a scarf
drapery, falls from the extreme edge Of
the hat brim. half yelling the wearer's face.
At the beginning OF the autumn season,
when new gowns are being ordered, the
skirt and coat styles are IN the greatest
request. This year there will be an I'M
commonly varied choice among the upper
garments, short, three-quarter and long
and these will be finished and trimmed In
a number of new and taking ways. The
suits entire, however, bear a very close
resemblance to many of the costumes
brought out late last sprine.
At some of the most fashionable summer
resorts very pretty and becoming afternoon
toilets are worn OF soft ecru batiste, with
the cores Of the skirt Joined by black rachel
stitching, the trimming AT the edge con-
sisting OF several tapping frills set upon a
graduated founce. These frills are ratched
and further edged with narrow black lace.

interest. Then, too, she is by far too clever
to trust to the taste of a model, OF a models
dressmaker, IL such a being exists, for the
raiment she wishes to paint. With her own
nimble fingers she made the many-tinted,
gauzy gowns worn by the model who posed
for her now famous picture; she even
fashioned the corsets to the girls figure,
that the exact curves and lines she de-
sired might be had.
THE Coquette." an earlier painting, and
one for which the salon awarded a medal,
although not one as high standing as the
recent decoration, was also a large can
vas, and, like this years exposition, pos
sessed an indescribable charm in the subtle
daintiness of color. 1t found a ready sale
and ar appreciative home in Philadelphia.
In personality Miss Green is very gracious
and charmingly vivacious, clear, intensely
blue eyes and an unusually bright color i'm

The rulers Of the modern democratic
world, comments the Chicago Inter Ocean,
are obviously the small trader. the formal
teacher, the constitutional" politician,
and the clergyman-that Is, the persons
who follow those occupations in which
women excel and succeed in them, II they
are men, because they have essentially
feminine or memory minds. On the other
hand, the inventors, the scientists, the
makers Of new financial combinations, the
propounders OF new political theories,
those who take nothing for granted and in
sist upon constructing their universe
new the leaders in departments where
memory Is nothing and creative observa-
ti0n Is everything, are the revolutions OF
things as they are and the masculine re-
bells against a feminized world.
Therefore. IL Mr.. swinburne's observa-
lions and deductions be correct, Instead OF
struggling against oppression. strong
minded women today are merely seeking
TO maintain a feminine supremacy. They
will, doubtless, be as surprised to learn
this as Monsieur Jourdain was In his ef-
forts to be "a perfect gentleman" to learn
that he had been talking prose all his life.

A plain. limp skirt that trained slightly

A recent trousseau made for a New York
bride of the haut ton was rich with Chi
nese negligees. Some OF the things had
been bought at the japanese shops, but a
batch OF adorable little jackets, made after
the model OF coolie shirts, had been fash
toned in Paris.
Composed Of exquisitely tinted silks, with
doublings in a different color. these showed
superb Chinese embroideries, &ide sleeves
and round collarless necks, cut out below

The embroidery was on a band all round

tered all over the garment. On a shirt In
deep yellow there were peacock blue en-
broideries. and shaded green needlework
on one in faded pink. Never were colors
more beautifully blended.
Two shirts on the same model for or
binary wear were made OF pink and blue
striped flannel, with bias borders OF plain
color taneta. They were ali vastly be-

Another fetching detail Of this trousseau
was a box-pleated bodice Of azure mousse
line with a deep yoke OF lace In the same
color. This extended over the sleeves in
a tight shoulder cap; elbow puffs Of the
mousseline went below. held into the arms
with lace covered bands.
A mad fancy was an arrangement Of black

was attached everywhere with light stitches.

Has the Human Race Always Been

Dominated by WOmenf
James 5winbuTas, IL the current West
minister Review, sets forth his opinion that
the human race, perhaps from the begin
ming, has been dominated by the feminine
mind. He finds that the conflict between
Investigation and authority, between sci
ence and religion, between things as they
have been and things as they are, which
has ragged for the last century or SO and
is now most acute, is essentially the re-
bellion of the masculine mind against this
feminine domination.
There are" says Mr.. Swinburne,
roughly, two types of mind, one depend
ing chiefly on memory and being repro
duction, the other on reasoning and being
creative. As these two types are proper
~tionally most developed In women and
men, respectively, we may call them the
feminine and masculine mind" He valves
for the moment the question which type is
the higher, but declares that in the world
as It exists 'the palm is given by universal
consent to the mind here cIassed as femi-
nine"
The memory or feminine mind can evil
