Hoped That Classic Drama
Would Find Favor.


Janauschek stood for nearly thirty years
among us. the stately remnant OF a lost
estate. She had come to this country with
ample means. hard earned honors, and q
somewhat overweening faith that she
would find here at that time the same 10y
atty to the past that she had always en-
countered in Germany. 1t was not the
least of her struggles during those thirty
years to acknowledge slowly that mistake.
Her reverence for the classic drama never
abated. and she never quite lost the hope
that the classic drama would sooner or
later meet with the joyous appreciation OF
the New World.
This is the illusion of a confident and
artistic woman who can sweep YOU away
with her emotions and cannot comprehend
the march OF events Some ~half-hearted
EFFORTS there were to come down abreast
Of what the American managers told her
was the market" but for the most part
they reminded you OF Brunhilds herself

Boiling Vegetables,

A great many cookbooks order all
fresh vegetables to be placed in an
abundance Of boiling water and cooked
slowly for a considerable time. Many
vegetables are ruined by being cooked
this way. Potatoes, asparagus, peas
md caulihower should be boiled in a
imall amount of water and cooked
steadily but slowly. Overlooking will
make all of these vegetables tasteless.
Do not salt any Of them until they are
half done.
The best way to cook beets Is in cold
water Wash them well, being careful
not to puncture them or break off the
tops. Put in n saucepan, cover with
water, add a handful of salt and two
tablespOofuls Of vinegar. Let them
boil rapidly for an hour and ten min
ntes. If old beets, cook an hour longer.
Lift one by one into cold water, peel
and return to the water in which they
were boiled IL they are to be cooled.
Carrots should be scraped and
washed, cut in slices half an inch
thick and cook in salted water for
thirty minutes. Serve in a cream
sauce. String beans should be boiled
slowly for two hours.

In Choosing a Dress.

An exchange suggests trying fabric
next your hand if there be no mirror,
as the complexion of it is about the
same as that of the face. This may be
so but, as the eyes and hair are quite
as important factors as the skin, we
can but be Of the opinion that a mir
rOr is a necessity.
If shop is to be found which is not
literally supplied with mirrors we
should by all means advise the woman
intent upon dress buying to provide
herself with her toilet mirror; smaller
sorts will not be satisfactory.
Having taken her position before the
counter an end Of the contemplated
goods Is draped over her shoulder or
f it be heavy, let it be fat and plain
the way it is to be made-and she can
Judge whether or no she Is at her
best in it, The woman who buys a
material because 1t looks we'll on the
Saleswomans person ought to be in
the sartorial kindergarten.
OF course, there's no necessity for ex-
plotting ones toilet mirror, but If a
mirrorless store were to be found we
certainly should advise a woman not
to hesitate.
Furthermore, she should try her ma
terial just where she is to wear it,
She'll be disappointed if she tries a
pink rose for her hat beside her chin,
as many women do, since color's eff.
feet is often very different above or
below the face. Red or pink on the
hat may rob face of every vestige Of
color, while these same shades placed
under the chin may throw a warm
glow over the complexion. There's
nothing to do but to try it before a
mirror!

Charlotte Corday Hats.

This is an original adaptation of
mob cap to a hat, 1t is, in fact a
muslin hat with couple of pleated
frillings round, and very pretty too.
Sometimes it is made of white crepe,
with black muslin spots over pink
silk, and roses figure in the front, and
black velvet bows at the back. 1t
should be accompanied by picture
frock with a achu and bell sleeves.
Everybody who dresses well now, and
likes to wear high collar, appears to
supplement it with a colored ribbon
around the neck, and the old fashioned
gold roses, attached to hearts, are
much in character with it.

Something really new in the soup line
s a difficult matter for the home ca

IS the basis she may serve a delicacy
n this line that will set the family
guessing what can have produced such
savory flavor. Odds and ends Of
mushrooms, fresh and good, but to be

Uso Of Perfumes,

Many women Of good taste say that
the use of perfume is vulgar, and other
women Of equally good taste proclaim
that 1t is not. Which one of these is
right the individual must decide One
thing is certain; excessive use Of per
fume is vulgar; it is the abuse and not
the use of perfume that makes it un.
popular with women of refined tastes.
When perfume is used the woman
should select whatever scent Is the
most agreeable to her, and use that
alone.
Nothing can be worse taste than
confusion Of scents.
A delicate perfume of good quality
Is the most desirable, and then one
should have everything the same
scent.
Sachet powder will be required for
the scent bags scattered about among
the underwear; the face powder should
be of the same make, as should also
the soap AS to extracts, people vary
In these, but quite the best taste is to
have the extract and toilette water
the same scent as all the others, and II
a delicate scent is used on the hand
kerchlef there Is no reason whatever
for calling. it vulgar taste; there have
been times when scented handker.

person who felt faint, and when no

SILK Gloves EmbroIdered.

Embroidered silk gloves are one OF
the dainty eXtravagances of the sea-
son, the vogue for embroiderles In
fabrics having reached handwear. The
embroidered gloves have tiny pansies,
daisies, violets or forget-me-nots en-
broldered in a section two inches wide
around the wrist. They are executed
either in the natural colors or In the
exact shade of the glove, the latter
style being undoubtedly destined to
greater popularity. In better grades
the embroidery extends to the back
of the hand. where it occupies the
place of the usual points.
In the elbow gloves for evening wear,
where the embroidery is most appro'
pirate and beautiful, 1t is found both
on the backs Of the hands and In q
section four inches wide around the
wrist. Half way up the arm there Is
also four-inch semi-transparent, clip
teal medallion, also embroidered.
These gloves have double-tipped fin
gers, unusual in long silk gloves, and
are shown in black, pearl, white, mode
and light gray.

Children's Fashions.

Aesthetic dress always seems to be
suitable to little children. They have
taken kindly to the Russian blouse.
Sometimes the waist line is ignored
altogether, and the garment falls from
the shoulders to the feet in an un'
broken line from a pretty yoke or
collar. Boys waists seem to be given
a longer length than girls, Of course in
their tender youth. Flowered muslin,
delaines and challis make pretty little
frocks for girls. with yokes and frill-
ings round the hem. A novel idea is
yoke piece from the waist shocked;
this being elastic, it adheres nicely to
the figure. For wearing with the first
breeches there is a curious little gar
ment, which is slipped over the head,
and has no fastening at all; it is set
in a yoke and box pleated, the ma
terial being allowed to fall as 1t will
from the shoulders; the sleeves are
slashed on the outside Of the arms,
and show under white ones, apparently
part of the yoke. Sometimes it is
made to button down the back.

Fashion Notes.

All sorts of pleatings are modisk,
Inlaid tucling looks rather wei! on
silk.
Old blue Is a shade that seems to be
gaining popularity
Deep turn-back cuffs Of heavy lace
adorn evening cloaks.
The mercerlzing process has made
common dresses handsomer
Coarse open linen weaves do not
necessarily become shapeless.
Already we hear of changing sleeve
fullness to above the elbow.
Gowns of gray cheviot, with white
reliefs, are especially smart.
Inlets Of pleated lace or net give
fullness to some long dress cloaks.
White pearl buttons fasten the
blouses and skirts of some bicycle
suits.
White grenadine, trimmed with pink
panne, makes an effective afternoon
gown.
Platform hats that take sudden
drop in the back are very becoming to
some faces
As stocks become depleted 1t is more
and more trouble to match large and
small lace figures.
Dutch necks are more becoming to
some than are the round shapes that
come just to the base of the neck.
Some Of the new tucked shirt waists
have French knots embroidered on
them in black, thus giving a pretty
contrast.
Lace medalllons caught together with
narrow ribbon velvet make a very
pretty trimming on gowns of light
woolen material.
Lace hip yokes give skirts a modlsh
air and are very efficient in concealing
any pieclng that may have been EN-.
ployed to lengthen the skirt.
Particularly effective are the accor.
dion pleated ruffs now so much worn.
They come In all colors, but those in
black and white are preferred.
Every complete wardrobe must have
a long coat. They are made with full
effect and are apparently shapeless,
although much attention has been paid
to getting this effect.
Ostrich feather boas are seen again,
some in the old, round shape, but the
smartest ones are in wide, fat stoles.
When boas are worn 1t is always bet.

Fried Peppers.

Fried peppers are not any too well
nown. The peppers should be sliced
rosswlse, freed from the seeds and
Eft in cold water for a quarter of an
our or more. Drain and dry these
Ices, sprinkle over them a little salt
nd dip them into flour. Have ready
little olive oil in which to fry the
,eppers. Do not let them brown too
leeply, and serve with steak. Again
hey may be brolled, though in this
ase the peppers should be cut into
uarters and, after the seeds have
,een removed, cooked on a creased
roiler until the edges begin to curl.
chey should then be brushed with
utter, seasoned with little salt and
rived on a steak.

waIkIDr Good Exerclse.

Girls do not appreciate the advan-
tages of walking as they should. 1t
has been said by an eminent physician
that walking is the exercise most con-
ducive to physical beauty in woman.
Tennis Is supposed to be good exer-
else, but it has a tendency to lengthen
the arms, and also to make the height
or the shoulders uneven. Cycling
when much practised renders women
rather awkward in their walk; they ac-
quire a sort Of plungins motion that is
not altogether graceful, says WOman's
Life.
Croquet does not give the continuous
exercise OF the whole system that
walking does, OF all the ways in
The suburban citizen., 1902-09-06

which women take physical exercise
there is none so conducive to health
and beauty of form as walking. Per-
haps the reason why systematic walk
ing for health's sake is not more popu-
lar is that 1t is so cheap and so con-
venient. We generally prefer that
which costs money, and is otherwise
not obtalnable by all. AS an easy and
safe contributory to health, walking
ought to be regularly persevered in, In
all but the worst weather.

Woman Teller FOF n NhAchEo Dahhs
The Fourth National Bank will on
August 1 inaugurate a new movement
N banking circles by opening de-
oartment for the exclusive benefit Of
It's women customers. Women patrons
will be served at a separate window
0y a woman teller.
Added interest attaches to this in
aovation from the fact that the posi-
don will be filed by one of the best
Enown young women in Atlanta. Miss
Jennie Armstrong, for many years
Identified with the Girls High School
Is assistant principal, has been to-day
appointed to the position Of teller, with
exclusive charge Of the woman's de-
Dartment.
In the Inauguration Of this new de-
2artment for the exclusive use Of
women, the Fourth National is the
1rst bank in the South to follow the
precedent established by some Of the
largest banking institutions Of the
East. Notably among such lnstitu-
hons is the Fifth Avenue Bank of
New York, the deposits of which ag-
gregate S36,000,000, of which amount
520,000,000 stand to the credit of
women depositors.
The officials of the bank, being Ques-
iOned as to the purposes and plans
Of the new department. said:
"The woman's window and the wom-
ans teller will enable our numerous
patrons among the women to avoid
lhe disagreeable necessity of standing
N an indiscriminate line Among the
"details Of the plan will be a handsome
combination check and passbook
bound In Russian leather. and a size
70 slip into lady's card case. An.
other attractive feature will be the
payment, at the new window, Of all
checks in fresh and unused currency"
