GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM.

The daughters of Mrs. Ashbel p.
Fitch attain popularity as soon as they
come out" The marriage of Miss
Elizabeth Fitch probably will take
place next month. In last November
Miss Ella Fitch was married to Henry
George Chatain in the Madison Avenue
Presbyterian church. AS girl she had
host of friends and was called excep-
tionallly bright. The Fitch girls are
not of the frivolous order but go in for
a solid education. Mrs. Fitch is iden-
titled more with society than with club
dom, although many clubs have made
efforts to capture her. She is a Daugh-
ter OF the Revolution. Her young
daughter Doris is likely to repeat the
success of the elder sisters.
Autumn hats are commonplace this
year, but young woman who lives in
Central Park West wears headdress
that attracts much attention. She is
rather pretty and has what she might
call loads of style" Her hat Is made
entirely of brown leaves and pine cones.
These cones are small and in the back
they droop gracefully over her brown
hair. She does~no wear veil. The
pine cone hat may be worn with any
frock, and she chooses tan dress, with
a long coat A plum colored waist
peeping from underneath touch Of
brightness. z.s9
At one time Lady Algernon Gordon
Lennox was perturbed about her age.
To gain her favor It was necessary to
tell her She looked like bud" This
could have been said without disre-
garding the truth. The only indication
that she was not as young as she looked
was the living proof of the tall daugh-
ter, who always was kept in the back
ground. When Ivy was well de-
veloped girl of fifteen she wore pima
fores and her golden brown hair was
in pigtail. 1t even is said that she
was forced to play with dolls to sus-
tain the illusion, and Lady "Algy"
fought her budding womanhood in
every way. One day when the Lennexes

be laid on buttons as decorative
feature at present, from the smallest
and plaineSt to the expensive art butt
tions" that are as beautiful and elabo-
rate as, jewelry. The; smartest tailor
made gowns are, trimmed with rows
and rows of small buttons, and the
| lovely Louis coats of velvet and SILK,
worn on dressy occasions are orna-
mented with jeweled buttons, both
in artistic and antique settings.
The hair will be worn high for even

wreaths of leaves, agariands of tiny
pink or white roses, sprays of golden
wheat aigrettes Of feather. lace or
narrow gauge ribbon.t OF course, the
possessor of diamond butterfly, star,
sun or arrow will know what to do
with it in the hair. az

are smaller than usual this season. Tiny
squares are finished with frills of val
enciennes or embroidered with initial
corners; and yet there is nothing in
such good taste as plain fine linen

chief to be carried In the cuff of the

HOW TO CURE POVERTY
TITLED SPANISH WOMAN. SAYS
TO STOP EATING
Has Founded an Anti Eating Society
Her Followers Are Allowed Two
Glasses a Day of Lemonade, but
Must Eat Nothing More.

One of the latest remedies for pow
erty (Which scientific charity workers
tells us is lack of character) is to stop
eating. -.
What an easy world this would be II
we could only accomplish that 1eat!
There is one woman who says she mas
done so; her name is Stemsel, and she
is a baroness. This baroness says the
great cause of poverty is having to
eat, which she does not seem to con-
slider at all necessary. Two glasses OF
lemonade, every member of the guild,
club, clique, whatever you call it, that
she has established, may indulge in,
but nothing more. This strange Wom-
an, who does not regard 1T as neces-
sary to eat, is now living in Spain,
where she has made some converts to
her UNIQUE fad, and if one of them so
much as takes mouthful of bread she
is expelled from the society. The bar
onesS says that she herself has sub
sisted for a long time upon two glasses
of lemonade a day, and she knows that
solid food is not really necessary.
All of this sounds very absurd, but
there is not much doubt that we all eat
too much, and particularly is this the
case where persons are stout and are
gaining all the time. The writer has in
mind a man who is very heavy and
who contends that one hearty meal
day is sufficient for him and for every
one. A light breakfast, light luncheon
and hearty dinner would be an excel
lent regimen for everybody. Three
heavy meals a day, it is safe to say, is
not a healthy diet for anyone, unless
for extremely thin persons just recov-
ering from an illness and for. whom
good diet is essential. The woman who
feels herself becoming too heavy can
easily remedy the matter if she is will
Ing to do so. 1t is all matter of diet
and exercise. Any woman can lose ten
pounds of flesh in three months if she
will give up breakfast entirely; eat a
light luncheon and a moderately hearty
dinner. She must not eat sweets at all,
no potatoes or other starchy foods, and
very little water with meals. Water is
exceedingly fattening.
The thin woman can gain ten pounds
by reversing this plan. Let her eat a
hearty breakfast, drink much fluid with
her meals, and all the sweets and
starchy foods she can. Also sleep as
much as possible.
But after everything is said and done
on this subject, ones natural habit has
a good deal to do with it; it is natural
for some persons to be slender, for
others to be stout, and in many cases
it is hard to overcome either. The best
thing is to be satisfied with the way
the Lord made you and try to forget
yourself and how you look. No woman

WoMEN's CLUBS.

The Thursday club will hold its sec
ond meeting this afternoon at $3.50 at
the Aberdeen. The paper Of the day
relates to the liquor question and the
subject will be handled by Miss Willes,
president of the club. The delegate
who attended the Mankato convention,
Mrs. Samuel Joy, will make her report.
Mrs. F. S. Allen, of Dodge Center, the
newly elected president of the state
federation, has been in town for day
or two and was Mrs. Dibble's guest
Tuesday night. Yesterday she went to
Minneapolis to confer with the club
women there, and today there will be
an important meeting of the executive
board of the Minnesota Federation of
Women's Clubs at the residence of the
corresponding secretary, Mrs. w. w.
Sykes, of II Spruce place. There are
several important matters to be con-
sidered and committees to be appoint
ed. The resignation of Mrs. James, Of
Mankato, who was recently elected vice
president of the First district, will be
acted upon, and if accepted, the presi-
dent will appoint some one to fill her
place Nh Allen has been zen, the Ile,1 guest
during her stay in Minneapolis.
Miss Marie Obenauer leaves today
for Fergus Falls, where she goes to at
tend the meeting of the Ninth district
club women. The Ninth district is
mainly notable as the home of Mrs. G.
o. WEIGH, who is striking and pop
ular woman in the federation and con-
sidered one of the shining lights. The
fact that the convention is to go to
Fergus Falls next autumn makes the
clubs of that northern section of the
state of interest to all federationists.
All club women were interested in
the success of the Damrosch- Bispham
concert for the honor of the city and
on account of Mrs. Russell Dorr, who
is a well-known and popular club
woman Mrs. Dorr did a brave thing
in bringing the two artists to ST. Paul,
with no other assistance than her con-
f1dence in the loyalty of the citizens
and the certainty that they would not
fail to patronize two great musicians,
and as it turned out she was justified.
A fine house greeted the two interpre-
ters of Wagner's sacred music drama,
and the reputation of the city was saw
ed. If we had more wonderland a few
men-with Mrs. DORIS courage and
ability, our musical season would not
be conspicuous by the scarcity of great
names.

advertised to make one thin: 1t is a
dangerous thing to do and very absurd
beside. Indeed, it is remarkable that
anyone can be found willing to take
mysterious doses of which one can
know nothing except from ridiculous
advertisements. Women have died
from taking poisonous stuff to reduce
weight. But there can be no harm in

women will wear plush coats. These
pushes and velvets are far from cheap
and some qualities command $40 a
yard. For evening wraps they are
ideal. In the pushes one sees those
tufted designs that prevailed in the
eighties. The pushes are almost too
new to be called really fashionable. but
they promise well and some high class
dressmakers are pushing" them. The
imitation moleskin is beautiful and car
riage gowns of this lustrous gray are
striking.
Observant persons who pass Mrs.
Herman Oelrichs' house stare at her
window curtains. She is a good house
keeper and her white marble house is
always spick and span. The curtains
are of tambour lace of the highest quail

and classic vases. The new fashion Of
having all the curtains in a house iden-
teal is respected by Mrs. Oelrichs.
From basement to attic each window
has real tambour curtain. 1t is a
fine display Of laces and these curtains
will take rank with the Arabian laceS

sion of Mrs. Frederick w. Vanderbilt.

Sweet blossom. | loved you in childhood's
glad morn
Bright visions of home on your fragrance
A magical charm doth thy incense impart
That flows from the depth of thy sweet, sun
ny heart.
All, ever to friendship and memory true
So linked with the joys that in childhood l
knew;
Thou dearest me far through the mystical
haze
To golden-hued scenes of those halcyon
days.
Though life's dreary landscape lies dimly
The sweet fields of homeland are sunny
and green.
The bright flowers nod to the soft summer
breeze,
The glad robins sing in the old cherry trees.
The garden, the orchard, see as of yore-
The woodbine entwining the old cottage
door.
But dearer than all to my vision now come
The loved ones who hasten to welcome me
home.
Sweet blossom of love! may thy mission be
My barque thou hast moored in haven Of
Secure from the tempest and dark pillows
In blissful repose in the harbor of home.

A sense of pureness in the air,
OF wholesome life in growing thing,
Trembling of blossom, blade and wings,
Perfume and beauty everywhere
Skies, trees, the grass, the very loan,
l love them all ; this is our home.
Million on million years have sped
To frame green fields and towering
hills;
The mortal for moment tills
His span of earth, then is he dead:
This knows he well, yet doth he hold
His paradise like miSer'S gold.
l would be nobler than to clutch
My little world with gloating grasp;
Now, while live, my hands unclasp, :.
Or let me hold it not so much
For my own Joy as for the good
Of all the gentle brotherhood.
And as the seasons move in mirth
OF bloom and bird, of snow and leaf,
May my calm spirit rise from grief
In sOlace Of the lovely earth;
And though the land lie dark or lit,
Let me but gather songs from it.
