Carriage Dresses on the Street Dirty
and Dangerous.

Carriage Dresses on the Street DIRTY
and Dangerous.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.
Elsie De Wolfe may not be a great &C
tress, but she has earned the gratitude OF
everybody save the doctors by advocating
the short skirt for women in business. Miss
De Wolfe is supposed by the press agent to
be an authority on fashion, and II she can
help on the vogue of dresses which clear
the street she will have done so much good
that she is fairly entitled to the free ad-
vertising-like this-wqich she gets out OF
it, She is said to have posted on her call
board a rule that all the women OF her
company shall go to the theater In snort
skirts In explanation she said that she
was forced to adopt such a rule when her
company was on the road to protect the
health of her actresses; that railroad sta
TONS sidewalks and theaters In small towns
were SO dirty that not until she established
the reign of short skirts were the members
of her company to be depended upon
The actress added that the only woman
who had any business to wear a long skirt
on the street was the woman who rode IN
her carriage; that is, the woman Who has
no business and so is privileged to humor
her whims. The women who ride In car
riages here are minority that do not
count. far as street fashions go. The
long skirt, which was made for them in
Paris. Is adopted here by women who must
walk or ride in street cars, under the i'm
preston that when they wear carriage
dresses people cannot tell them from wo-
men who have carriages. After they have
worn their long skirts about twice on the
street the distinction is clear to the most
unobservant. After a gown has been
trailed through the mud for a fortnight
the sense of smell reveals the fact that II
1t was made for carriage 1t never saw the
inside of one. The long skirt in this coun-
try Is a silly affectation. Perhaps it has
some subtle connection with the notion that
because an American woman who walks is
Just as good the one who rides she
ought to wear the same clothes. Sensible
women ought to quit it. If the women who
gowns would keep them carefully off the
street perhaps their sisters for whom the
big stores are their chief parade ground
would follow the good example.

PARIS, March ", 1903.
No sun upon an Easter day will be half
so fine sight as milady gowned in her
spring finery. Mind l did not say Easter
fnery, for her hghness would scott at so
palpably bourgeoise toilet No; she will
be adjoining the earth with a most fetch

grace any celebration.
Here are three gowns which. Providence
permitting, will be worn by smart Ameri
can women to the Madeleine to hear the
impressive mass sung in that cathedral
upon Easter morning.
The first is a spring poem in leaf green
crepe de chine. The bolero-shaped corsage
falls loosely over a green taffeta high belt.
Marrow black and white silk braid orna-

A New Dinner Sack.

The dinner or coffee sack Is one of fash
ions latest fancies. This little coat is the
complete essence of neglige luxury and at
the same time offers variety and charm
to a costume.
The sack seen lately was made of rose
pink crepe de chine. Nothing could be
more becoming than the graceful fall of
it's broad collar which is covered with
graduated dots of black applique
A dainty feature is the mosouetaire
sleeve and the last touch of softness is
given by the ecru lace which trims the
entire sack.

Bubble Blowing and Beauty.

What do you think of bubble blowing
as means of gaining health and beauty?
The effect of an hours daily blowing for
a couple Of weeks is said to be marvellous.
Hollow cheeks recover their contour and
thin throats become soft and smooth. OF
course 1t is not to the soapy water and the
pipes that these health-giving qualities are
due. but to the deep breaths which have
to be taken. 1t has long been proved that
deep breathing is an excellent thing for
the lungs and. consequently, for the gen.
eral health.

GOVERNORS MESSAGE AND SCHEDULE OF FSTIMATF0

The first fiscal period has been one
Oh large needs and small means. Much
has been done in the way of public
improvements and emergency demands
outside of the appropriation bills.
Rights Of way for road development have
been acquired through the provisions
of the laws authorizing land exchanges
between the government and private
parties. Public improvements have
been made by private parties under
agreement with the government in the
confidence that the Legislature, recog-
nizing the pressing need thereof, would
make due appropriation therefor. I'M
portant emergency work has been done
under a similar understanding.
There is still much to be done in the
way of public improvements for lack
of which there is prejudice to the pub
lie interests which will increase as time
goes on unless action is taken. Much
of this work cannot be paid for from
the, current revenues.
Estimates for expenditures from
fund TO be obtained by public loan
will be submitted to you with recon-
mendations for appropriate legislation
On the subject.

Although from this showing the ex-
