entre-deux while down the front nre rufflea of lace which reach to the very hem of the skirt and then meet other rutfies. not over . finger In width that go entirely around the whole gown.
 Batiste tea gowns are delightfully."- cool and dainty, and are made in coiors as well as in white, but white Is more fashiouabls. All these are made on the fitted silk princess Things, but the material is left loose from the shoulders so that the long, transparent effect 80 fashionable now can be best o0- tained. Accordion plaited batiste tea gowns are very smart. and are mass of lace in en- tre-deux and in rufi1es
 All are cut low in the ueck in front either round or square, but have long sleeves that are siabned to the elbow, so that the arm is shown. Embroidered lace Is also used for trimming these tea gowns. but ii is really too heavy for the batiste and is better on the thin India silk or material of that sort. The most useful style among the ready made tea gowns Is the one made entirely of entre -,ieux of lace and of gathered ribbon of the same width, the ribbon either white, blue or yell low, us preferred; the lace always wb.te. This gown is tight in the back, Ia princess ef- feet, but the fronts are loose and yet are supposed to be held in place by jewelied girdle pulled well down in front fo give long line and to prevent the figure from looking too large. The Things are of the thinnest kind of India silk, only heavy enough to hold the bones and to allow of being taken In at the seams to it. The Ino- ment heavy lining is put in the gown be- comes too warm for summer wear, md the Idea Is that not only shall thls look cool but be cool enough to wear on the hottest evenings. It would almost seem that the height of the dressmaker's art had Leen reached in this style of garment, aud tiiat while apparently loose and without refer ence to the figure, 1t In reality fits we'll and Is most carefully fashioned for either stout or slender figures.

selves. The tepid bath, having temper ature from S5 to 92 degrees Fahrenheit, $ commonly ranked as sedative, but Is not advisable for any but the robust, as It lowers the physical tone and fails to excite reac ton.
 The warm bath, with temperature from 92 to 9S degrees Fahrenheit, Is more cleans ing comfortable and is wonderful re storer after fatigue, and the hot bath, 9S to 112 degrees Fahrenheit, Is fine stimulant, taken as a soap scrub, standing upon bath mat followed by brief plunge, and, If agreeable, cool spray. A bath at the latter temperature Is eneryating only when the bather lols In the hot water for fifteen or twenty minutes. This, from overheating, produces languor, and slugglshness instead of stimulation follows.
 As stimulants of the circulation the ultl- mate results of the hot and the cold bath are the same, but the expense to the vitality Is very unequal. Their effects upon the com bustlon going on in the body have been com pared to those of the hot and cold blast upon the furnace, both of which increase the heat which 1t gives out, but with this diff ference The hot blast so facilitates com bustlon that the same work is done by It's aid with an expenditure of two and half tons of coal that is done by the cold blast with an expenditure of eight tons.
 The important question, therefore, which should determine the use of the cold bath is whether the individual has superfluous vitality to consume. If she has, let her use if in this healthful fashion. For the weak if is a reckless expenditure. The hot bath at,mulates the natural combustion proc esses in the body and acts with a certainty thai nothing else can equal In facilitating the renewing processes of organic life. By olsansing the skin and freeing the secretions and sudoriferous glands 1t brings 1t up to ,ts fullest efficiency as an eliminator of the hoav's waste products, and failure on It's Dart to perform this office perfectly throws psaditional work upon both kidneys and I~nos When these are diseased an i'm .nr1ant aid to their cure Is omitted if the slsln be not stimulated by means of inducing nrofuse sweating to take upon itself the work of the disabled organs.
 With the bath cult we are reyivlng much of inc old time luxury of perfumed, mineral and milk baths. Queen Wilhemina's daily hath is perfumed with a pint of her favorite Cologne water, and French women practise many dainty devices for mparting to their baths subtle, lingering fragrance. One of these. reputed to be delightful, and more

 It is not long since residence provided with one bathroom was described as pos sessing 'all modern conveniences," and only In the large and handsome homes of eK. tremely conslderate and thoughtful persons were there baths for the servants use hoW the up-to-date apartment house provides bathroom for almost every bedroom, ana tne servants bath Is coming to be considered in' dspensable,
 The wave of so called sanitary plumb ing which swept over the country Qn many cases fighting a winning battle against pre- ventable disease )was the first step in the re form from which have sprung the beauty comfort and perfection of the modern bath room.
 The strictly up-to-date bathroom, In ad- dltion to It's commodious lavatory and the conventional tub, Is provided with tuD for sltz bath and another for the feet, and also with complete needle shower having series of hoops and faucets by means of which every part of the body can be sprayed with water at any desired tenn perature. The manner of the setting of the bathrooms and their Individual elegance are restrained only by the taste of the de. signer and the limit of expense. The luxury of old Roman days did not surpass, If II equalied the decorations and fittings of the bathrooms In some of our modern palaces.
 ihe alIuOsi uHlNefShl prONlS on Ol tltheR the portable spray or the stationary needle shower, having it's own receptor, Is result of the hydropathic cult which taught women their immense value q adjunets of the bath.
 From the hydropathic fad many women discovered undreamed of physical benefits In the systematic application of water, which, when property applied. is q remedy for host of human-ty's seifcreated Ills Heath and beauty have been wooed and won from the tub and sprays, and every other luxury and convenience cou.d be dispensed with rather than these hand -IhaldeDs of health. For ovcrwrougAt Eeryes and head ache, caused by fatigue, the cold spray played up and down the spine Is wonderfully calming and restorative.
 In all this cult of baths and bathing the beneficent offices of hot water have come In for fair share of recognition, and the cold water fnddist no longer byowbcats his fellows Into believing In the superior virtues of his hardshood or that his $ the only way The office of the cod bath is mainly that of stimulating and hardening the nerves-of

My publishers have been urging me te coudense my stories; not 10 go so much into details, simply to suggest things and issTs inc rest to the reader," said the struggling vounr author.

Higher Criticism.

Once upon time sn ambitious theatrical manager paid a large price for play, and at great expense prepared 1t for produe ton on the stage.
 On the opening night he was very anxiou. indeed, and with palpltating heart watcneo tortbs frsteeidence of It's effect on the audi ence. .,
 There was quite suspense, and then the anxious manager saw that the play did not meet with the approval of the gallery gods. He tried to win their favorable criticism, but could not, and, the rest of the house taking its cue from the gallery, the play was an aD- solute failure and had to be withdrawn at a great loss.
 Moral:-The most potent criticism comes from the higher circles.

In these days when each and every gown In a woman's outfit may truthfully be called a work of art, 1t is rather difficult to say which one Is the more attractive or costly, the two terms. however, not be- ing synonymous.
 The tea gown is a most important addition to the modern outfit: in fact, is not an addi- ton, but one of the most important first principles of the well-dressed woman. She who makes study of clothes spends a lot

of time, thought and money on her tea gowns and has them of various materials and in thick and thin fabrics and of different coiors.
 An elaborate tea gown can be fashioned to do duty for an informal at home dinner, and were 1t not for the loose flowing drap- cries which must always be part of the gown, whether made of the material itself or the trimmings. it would be hard, indeed to distinguish which 1t was intended fora

women, bundles of oyerwrought nerves and excftable energy, who periodically are on the verge of nervous prostration are often victims of the latter regime.
 Though the matter oI the baths temper ature can never be arbitrarily settled but must ever remain an open question and be adjusted to individual ldlosyncrdsies, some facts not generally known will aid many in choosing that most healthful for them

SEA WATER BATH.

Dissolve the substance in two gallons of warm water. It Is sufficient for thirty gallon bath. The best effects are gained by taking 1t hot, for then the free absorption of salts stimulates the entire body. temper ature of 9s degrees Fahrenheit induces per splration, which in some cases Is extremely beneficial. The tonic and soothing effects are gained in fifteen mlnutes longer stay may be enervating. It Is better for the skin to sponge the body with fresh water after the sea bath, and sometimes a cold spray is enjoyable.
 Lacking a spray, good results have been obtained by splashing cold water from pitcher down the length of the spine, but the services of an attendant are required for this.
 Among the famous Father Kneipp's baths A favorite one which Is strengthening ana stimulates the function of the skin Is made by boiling for half hour pound of fresn' reslnous pine needles and pine cones broken into bits. Strain the infusion and add 1t to hot bath.
 An agreeable substitute for the lingering fragrance of the perfumed and aromatic herb bath is obtained by spraying the body after the hot bath with fragrant toilet water or lnvigorating aromatic vinegar.

Emollient baths. recom ! mended especially for anaemic women, which render the skin supple and white, are prepared by adding to the bath water from two to six pounds of bran, or two pounds of corustarch or oatmeal, or half as much gela- tine or linseed meal.
 Although only fortune-pampered women can indulge in using pint of choice perfume | for a single bath and other expensive con | ceits of the day, there are many methods for enhancing the luxury of the bath which are to be had for little panstaking, and which are so beneficial in results as to be well worth while.

 It Is soothing, when summer heat has de- veloped a rash or hives, to take yichy bath. which Is accomplished by dissolying 300 grammes of bicarbonate of soda in the bath water. water bath can be enjoyed in the mountains by the use either of sea salt or of this compound:
