THE LADY AT BREAKFAST
All the Breakfast Table Evils Have
Not Gone Out With Curl Papers.

Lovely woman Is not always q vision
CT delight at the first meal Of the day. al
though the time has gone by, IN most
places, when curl papers were in vogue at
breakfast.
But even without these detriments.
woman has ways Of disiguring the break
fast table. Some take to unholy wrap
pery arrangements which are enough 10
make any husband think charitably OF
bachelor quarters with breakfast at
restaurant. There is no absolute reason
why wrapper should not be neat or even
dainty. Laces and ribbons are not for
the woman who has TO do a part or all Of
her own work. but she can always haze
a little white about her throat, although
she is wearing a flannel wrapper. and
this garment may be made 10 fit and the
white apron. fortunately is stiN with us,
10 preserve an air Of trimness.
The opponents Of easy dress will sdyo-
cate the shirtwaist. This garment is at
once the comfort and the curse Of women.
i is a comfort from motives Of economy,
and fl is a desirable garment when once
you get &c on But a woman who does
not wish 10 give an Illustration Of a dis
solution OF continuity must pin herself
down in many spots And this is q labor
OF time when breakfast must be on the
table promptly and the baby has been
wakeful and there has been a last nap
that has shortened the time for bathing
and dressing. After all, the woman is not
20 much to blame for the wrapper.

Search for q Pearl.

Mr. Eddy. the American charge DAT
flares at Constantinople. possesses a pearl
which has had some remarkable adven-
lures. Il was given to him when he was
eighteen, and is set as a solitaire stud
Two years ago he lost il on the staircase
Of a big Paris hotel, and after two DAYS it
was brougt back 10 MIN. About five
weeks since Mr. Eddy went 20 the circus.
and suddenly noticed the pearl had gone
again. He at once advised the circus
authorities, who searched the whole build
ing without success. and Mr. ECIy gave
up all hopes Of recovering IL. Last week
he was in the bazaars in STEAMBOAT and
tried TO obtain a pearl TO fit the body OF
the stud. AS he could not find one which
suited him, he told some Of the bazaar
touts to look out for a pearl Of the size
he wanted and bring it to him. Soon
Sfterward a man came to his rooms and
produced a pearl which he said was ex-
sctly what Mr.. Eddy wanted, and he
asked E35 for il. On examination Mr..
EDDY was astonished 20 find 1t was his
own, and proved Il, to the CONSERVATION
Of the man. BY fitting il to the broken
setting in his possession An attempt had
been made TO remove the portion of the
setting attached TO the pearl, but this had
been abandoned for fear Of breaking the
gem After some discussion the man de-
