what Neurasthenia Means.

No word is so common in these days
as neurasthenia; yet 1t is not easy to
define. and many Of those who use it
have only the vaguest idea of what It
means. The word originated with a
New York physician and the malady
indicated thereby has usually been re-
garded as a distinctively American
one, though it is found in most coun-
tries OF the civilized world, and tho

ETHICS OF wIDowHooD.
Mourning Reduced to n Fine Art by
New York Women OF Wealth
and Leisure.

One frequently hears that the wear
Ing of mourning is no longer fashion
able. They who doubt should visit
among the smart set in New York.
On the day of the funeral a long Eng
lish crepe bow is attached to the
knocker, with white Japanese chrys-
anthemums arranged at intervals
down the streamers. For the first Pc
riod of mourning the coachman and
footman are obliged to appear in black.
The New York widow is graceful
and quiet She understands the chic
effect much better than her western
sisters. She has an air of individual
ity which enchants even the casual OBJ
server. She always uses correct ma
terials and appropriate trimmings.
Her veil is draped with a coquettish
effect. but it is only in the first weeks
OF her sorrow that 1t is ever permit
ted to hang over her face. Soon she
discards it, and becoming short veil
OF Brussels is used instead.
The New York widow Is never seen
with that narrow edge of white set in her
bonnet. She looks on it with re-
pugnance, because it attracts atten-
ton 1t tells all the world that she
is q widow in the second stage Of
grief, and that is not consistent with
the ethics Of unhappiness. All the
toilets of her first black are trimmed
with English crepe, an expensive mel
ancholy material that clings to the
figure in most graceful way. She be-
lieves in being eminently proper and
doing all that etiquette desires of a
mourner.
When second mourning days arrive
she wears soft folds of white crepe
lisse at the throat; then come Law
ender and all the attendant shades Of
violet
