WRAP OF WHITE MOHAR SlCILIENNE, WITH MANY ROWS
OF FAG0TlNG

Mrs. Wilbour, the new president. who
was president more than a generation
ago. is delightful talker, and she told
me when, why and how Sorosis was
started. IT is recorded in the archives
of women's clubs that Sorosis grew out
of the slight TO women at the time the
newspaper fraternity of New York
city gave a banquet to Charles Dickens.
II is one of mans amiable weak
nesses to think chiefly of himself where
dinner is concerned, and so not a news
paper woman was invited to the Dick
ems feast, though there were women

those days. There were Fanny Fern.

An InIined White Gown.

One of the most useful and pretty
things to wear afternoons and even for
church or hot Sundays is the inlined
white gown made of some fine white
material which will wash. The picture
shows one of the daintiest l have seen
so far. The waist is made with a deep
yoke and front panel of all over en-
broidery outlined by narrow valen-
ciennes lace. The sleeves. which begin
below the shoulder, are tucked for a
little distance and then confined into a
band of valenciennes. From there down
they flow out into huge puffs, merely
confined at the wrist. The skirt has a
dip yoke and front panel of the en-
broidery, and the skirt is slightly funed
on Add to this costume a fluffy white
parasol, a pair of white wash silk
gloves and a white hat and it is COM
plete.
One of the smartest girls here has
some very fetching note paper which. it

was a loose sack affair, three-quarters
in length, finished with a belt of blue
leather. The cuffs were very deep and
irregular and covered with the en-
broidery, which also appeared here
and there on the body of the coat. The
buttons were of pearl and silver.
BY the way. speaking of buttons,
especially the fancy ones which are
worn so much on wash suits this year.
I want TO tell you that it is a waste
of time to sew them on after each
washing. Make little loops on the place
where the button goes. and through
these you can fasten the button by
means of a metal fastener. These cost
10 cents a boxful and are very useful,
can tell you.
But d costume like the one described
above, while pretty, is really not prac-
teal, for there is no warmth in the
unlined cotton coat, and it loses it's
shape when laundered. For my part,
am a firm believer in the tailor made

tailor made stock, which Will stand any

FOR A GOOD COMPLEXION.

One of the most important influences
in keeping the complexion pure in sum-
mer is the diet. Little meat and pastry
should be eaten Fruits, vegetables.
fresh fish and eggs ought 10 be the food
OF everybody who values clear com
plexion
Milk is a useful addition when il
agrees with one. but coffee should be
very rarely taken, as il tends TO make
the skin saIlow. The custom OF drink
ing rather weak tea for breakfast is a
good one and is a considerable help to
the complexion.
The care necessary in bathing the
face cannot be insisted upon too strong
ly. Soap should be used rarely, a bran
or oatmeal bag serving the same pur-
pose mucn better.

From Paris comes an interesting
story of the man, the woman and the
cigarette. A certain millionaire had
won a large sum at Monte Carlo and he
was returning by train with it. In the
coach which he entered there was a
young, smartly dressed and evidently
refined little woman. After a time she
took out a jeweled case and naively
offered him a cigarette, saying with an
apologize smile, Il cannot smoke
alone, monsieur" The millionaire ac-

SHOT HOMING PIGEON.

Columbia, Mo-, Nov. 90. While out
hunting, Will johnson of Columbia,
saw a strange bird overhead, flying as
straight as an arrow toward the south
east. He fired and beautiful homing
pigeon of unusual size and of peculiar
blush color fell at his feet. Around
the neck of the bird was a silver band,
on which was engraved these words !:
"For you alone, H. l.. E., IL, Fort
Selkirk, 1903" The bird was evident
ly from the Klondike regions. 1t was
of such unusual size that the bird au-
thorities at Missouri University could
not at first classify it, hut reference
to books clearly identified it as car
rier pigeon of the larger variety. The
pigeon was perhaps highly valued, as
the silver band was evidently manu-
featured and engraved for the purpose.
