else come to acquire a contempt for clothes.
The gowns must be changed so many times
day that women acquire a contempt for
them.
For the same reason the women Of the
stage are rarely well dressed. Clothes are
to them mere tools of trade.
Sarah Bernhardt wears any old thing
so long as 1T is loose. save when 1t is neces-
sary for her to dress up. Eleanora Duse
is about as Indifferent and carries her con-
tempt for dress even to the stage When

Anna Held In life looks almost the same
so far as the conspicuousness of her dress
goes, and Lillian Russell, who dresses
with great care OF the stage, Is rarely
strikingly arrayed. She affects quiet shades
in her clothes and relies for contrasts on
her hair and complexion. But, as rule,
the women of the stage come to look upon
dress as nothing more than a part of their
trade.
so il is with the women of society who
go in for 1t at all extensively. They have
to change their gowns so many times, to
wear so many different kinds of gowns
in day and to make many changes
for evening, that they lose all interest in
dress for its own sake And when that
happens they are not going to be the best

FRESH FROM TAILOR'S HANDS.

viding the general scheme into detailed sub
ideas. 1t is proposed that in a large meas
ure, the enterprise shall be great fair, in
which tradesmen, merchants and manufac-
turers may display what is made and what
is used by the sex. Special attention will be
paid to spectacular and amusement fea-
lures that were not considered in London.
An idea of the magnitude of this part of
the fair may be got from the statement
that on one alone, a representation or
street in Venice, 1t is intended to expend at
least $50, 900. The chief scheme of the ex-
hibit divides 1t into five sections industrial,
commercial, educational, national and
amusement. The industrial section will in
clude all things in that line actually being
accomplished and in process of accomplish
ment; the commercial section, on the other
hand, will be composed Of goods and pro-
ducts completed and ready for use when
they are consigned to the exhibition. In
one part of the garden visitors will see the
editorial, composing and press-rooms of
journalistic office from which staff Of
women will issue daily newspaper re-
garding the happenings at the fair. There
will be a field hospital, In which the sur
geons. physicians and nurses will be women.
Some of the progress In domestic analrs
will be demonstrated by showing modern
kitchen and a modern nursery side by side
with old-fashioned types of each. The ex-
hibits in the educational section will be dis
tributed throughout the building.
Among the most interesting will be
comprehensive exhibition of costumes for
womans wear, such as have never been
placed on public view: The national sec
ton, or the Street of All Nations" is to
border the arena of the garden. sweeping
around the industrial section In great
oval of ever-changing scenery, costumes
and people. For conducting the exhibition
many unique methods have been devised.
For one thing, all Of the attendants at the
garden during the week will be- women
the carriage attendants, the doorkeepers,
ha nd Ia
women, each wearing a specially devised
uniform of office. Over 1000 women will
be thus employed during the week. In ad-
dition, one night of the second week will
be devoted to each of the great conductors,
when Sousa, Duss, Shannon Victor Her
bert and others will either bring their
own organization or lead the woman's or
ganization already there. In the member
ship of the league are many prominent
singers who will contribute their services.
In the small hall upstairs there will be
lectures daily in connection with the edu-
cational section by the prominent women
of the day.

and powdered borax, one-quarter dram.
Rub the borax with the glycerin, gradually
add the violet water, lastly the tincture of
benZoin, slowly stirring. Rub some of this
on the hands at night, and then draw on
a pair of big but very clean sweet-scented
white suede gloves, that are slit open in the
palm and cropped off at the tips of every
finger.
After the hands have been whitened by
this process they may be made soft and
satiny and pink-palmed by massaging them
