DRESSMAKERS LOSE,
Even With Large Profits They Are Not
So Well Off.

From the New York Sun
1t used to be a tradition that physicians
must expect to lose one-third of their fees
through bad debts, but the more CONNER
cial methods that maintain now in all bust
nesses have decreased that percentage. In
other occupations there are, Of course, GER
tain losses which must be expected and for
which provision must be made. Among
the heaviest losers on bad debts in New
York are the frst-class dressmakers. This
does not apply to the dressmaking depart
ments of the large shops, which do not de-
liver goods to customers not well known to
them and properly accredited unless they
are paid for in advance or on delivery
1t is the smaller dresSmaking establish
ments which lose. They are compelled to
be more accommodating and would soon
lose business if they made any such condi-
tons as the department stores impose. But
the dressmakers allow for a profit which
leaves them some margin for such losses.
The fashionable, well-established dress
maker expects to earn so per cent clear on
every order. So she can occasionally at
ford to have few Improbable customers.
Through waiting for the money due them
the dressmakers also lose. And it is well
known that their wealthiest clients are
sometimes the slowest to pay.
Il have to send you bill promptly"
dressmaker explained to one of her GUS
toners the other day. because cannot get
the money out of my customers You buy
one dress every season and can afford to
pay me for 1t promptly. One woman owes
me 5000, and has done so for two years.
I have sent her bills and mentioned the
matter to her once or twice, but without
making any greater impression than to lead
her to offer always the same remark:
Why, haven't l sent you that yet? /
must attend to 1t right away
THAT woman Is very rich and the money
Is as good as gold. But must have some
thing to keep going. 1 can't offend her be-
cause she is one of the most profitable GUS
toners l have.
80 / have to get the money promptly
from women who order one or two dresses
a season. l cannot afford to let bills like
that run. 1t would be much simpler for
everybody, of course, If the women who
have the money would pay their bills
promptly. 1t would be just as easy for
them, but impossible to make them do it,
The fashionable dressmakers in New
York all earn enough, but they also lose
heavily on bad bills. This is worse for
them because they must make all their
learge earnings within ten years. That is
the average length of a dressmaker's popu-
larity, from the time she becomes well
known until her star declines. So it is a
little hard to have to give up any of her
earnings during that time

DISLIKES THE MOTH.
Woman's Hand Against It as Well as
Against the Serpent.

From the Baltimore News.
There was quite scene in a car the
other day because a poor little innocent
moth flew in, and every woman present felt
it her duty to slap at it In perfectly lady
like manner that could compromise no one
as it passed her. The hands of the daugh-
ters of Eve are more against the ser
pent than they are against the moth. Let
a woman see moth. and. no matter where
she is. whether in her own house or In her
neighbours she tries to kill 1t-furt1vely, II
necessary; openly and ViciouSiy II possible
To large woman after small ana IN
offensive moth fly is one of the things that
men live for ,
But, indeed, the ways of the merry moth
are past finding out. They dislike certain
things and like certain others for reasons
that no mortal can discover. Women adore
fur. so do moths. Men like tobacco and
moths loathe it. Almost every one hates
moth balls. but the moth most of all. Cam
phor is supposed to be disagreeable to nm
icky Mrs Moth, but put your best sealskin
away in it and the chances are that it will
have a small place eaten in 1T before the
summer is over by some scientific moth that
has been inoculated against camphor and
then proceeds on his nefarious work.
Each housekeeper has favorite prescrip-
ton to keep out these little pests which she
offers to all her neighbors, who have pre-
scriptions of their own and, therefore, do
not accept it. One hOuSekeeperS ideas on
the subject are, however, unique. 1.-THE

land he does not like what he can get at
easily He likes to work for his daily

it were. offers no attractions to him. 1t is
the precious furs put away carefully in
trunks which his ambition urges him to de-
YOUR. 1 don't put things away over-care-
fully for that reason. Watch and you will
find that what / say is correct"
But the wary housekeeper is not depend

for what is beyond his grasp. She packs
away her things in camphor and red
pepper and moth balls and tobacco, and has
time in the fall airing the odors off

California Scenery.
From the Atlantic.


AS long as there remains the love of
beauty in the human soul, so long will the
glory of California scenery, and that of the
whole Pacific coast, prove source of in
spiration to the poetic mind. Descriptive
verse has been from the beginning a
marked feature of the literature of this
region. In fact, the term Landscape
poets may be properly applied to this bevy
of song birds which seemed to the late
Maurice Thompson to have taken com
plete possession of the entire western sea-
board" Suffice to say that If volume of
verse were written by Californian which
reflected nothing of the states scenic beau
ty or its warmth of color, it would not only
come as surprise to most reviewers but
the loyalty of the poet might be seriously
questioned. While all this display
of local color may seem too apparent an
effort on the part of Californians to place
upon their work the stamp of a definite
locality, and may be considered by some a
cheap form of art, it is this very sensitive
ness to the beauty and grandeur with which
nature has clothed the west that offers the
most promise of its rapid literary advance
ment-a sensitiveness, moreover that will
become more and more acute with the Gull
tvation of the higher faculties through in
creasing educational growth.

Devilled eggs make appreciate addi-
ton to the lunch basket. Boil the eggs
twenty minutes, and then put in cold
water until thoroughly cold. Then SHE'LL
cut in two in the middle and remove the
yolks putting them in a small bowl and
setting the whites on a platter in pairs,
so that they will fit when placed together
again. Mash the yolk with the bowl of
silver or wooden spoon. Season with salt
and pepper and moisten with melted butter,
olive oil or mayonnaise. Add just sus-
picion of chopped pickle or parsley, If you
like, and refill the cavities. Put the original
halves together Skewer with wooden
toothpicks and wrap each egg in a square
of oiled paper, twisting the ends to hold.
Cheese straws are appetizing and easy
to pack in a little box by themselves. Sift
together one cupful of flour and a quarter
teaspoonful of baking powder. Add half
a teaspoonful of salt and chop two table
spoonsful of butter into the flour. Mix
in quarter tablespoonful of cayenne and
one cup of grated cheese. Wet with cold
water to a stiff paste and roll out very
thin. Cut in narrow strips and bake on
creased letter paper the bottom of an
inverted tin. A little salt sifted over them
just before they are taken from the oven
is considered to be an improvement. A
good plan Is to make cheese straws on
baking day, using scraps of puff paste.
Picnic tarts-At the same time cut out
and bake a dozen or a half dozen tart
crusts from the pie paste. Cut out an even
number of circles with the cookey cutter
and in half of them mark three little round
holes, using a thimble. When getting ready
for the picnic. put a good spoonful of tart
jelly, like currant, plum or cranberry, on
the lower crust and cover with the eye
leted one. Pack separately from the rest
of the luncheon in a small tin or bonbon
box.
In packing the basket put in the fruit,
the sweets and cake at the bottom, each
wrapped in it's own paper, and then eat
down to them.

savors of the economical or the unpreten-

Irish Lace Still Popular.

Irish lace still retains it's popularity, and
some of the newest designs are very at
tractive. A novel idea is to embroider the
pattern or a portion of it in colored silks.
Grape patterns in their natural colorings
and with rich green foliage are largely
worn on the smartest Partisan gowns.

Another and even more brilliant use is
being made of black bebe velvet, which is
now woven in elaborate embroideries. A
dress ordered for Newport of a swagger
maker displays these embroideries in the
form of big sunflowers. Net is the texture
of the gown, and blue in curious deep yet
faded shade it's color; and over this erect
i've background the flowers appear upon
the skirt which is made with a deep
shirred f1ounce and train. The bodice is
entirely of shirrings over a fitted lining
with the velvet Topped over the markings
and caught down with rosettes. The
tops of the puffed sleeves are also shirred,
creating a snug fit at this point, while
square tabs of blue silk, heavily stitched,
fern a graceful bertha fall.
