Widows and Mourning.

The mourning Of fashionable widows
does not extend over as long a period
nowadays as heretofore. Indeed, her
seclusion from general society is prac-
tically over at the expiration Of two
months.
Instead of being covered with crepe,
she is now permitted to wear as little
crepe as she pleases during the first
twelve months, and after that she may
discard crepe altogether if she Is so
inclined, instead of wearing it nine
months longer.
Then, again, she may wear a cap or
not, just as she pleases, and her veil,
instead Of being crepe, may be Of chit
fon or crepe lisse from the commence
ment of her mourning.
After the first twelve months she
gradually lightens her mourning to
second mourning, instead of wearing
deep mourning for two years, as has
been the custom in the past.

Concerning "Make-Ups.n

What a pity 1t is that women now
adays make up to the extent they do:
What is the use? For surely the pretty
woman does not need makeup" and
the plain one only draws attention to
natures harsh dealings by having re-
purse to it.
And how few made-up women one
sees who are anything but ill-painted!
Indeed. In this matter the old proverb,
Practice makes perfect" gets con-
slant contradiction, for it IS noticeable
that the longer 4 face has been beau
tiful,' the less we'll it is done, a want
Of care in dealing with the delicacies
of the art causing a general over
accentuation eliminating in n tout en-
semble, which is to the beholder moth

pitch as at present, when quite young
girls have recourse to the rouge pot,

Tha chief effect Of this indiscriminate
touching up is that most women are
not SO young as they are ~painted"-or
one doubts it of them. which comes
to the same thing; for seeing the dan
ger signals so glaringly displayed, one
jumps to the conclusion that charms
which require so much emphasis must
OF 4 surety be almost lost.
