Great Value to Women.

No Other Indoor Work Necessary for
General Development-Some
Simple Directions.

Written for The Evening Star by Katherine Morton
Uncle Sam is not satisfied with mere
military drill to keep his boys In proper
trim. He must needs put them through
course of sprouts in the shape of calls
themes. which he requires of them all the
time they are in garrison.
II his nieces were put through the same
course of sprouts as his nephews they
would have something to thank Uncle Sam
for all the days of their lives.
In the United States armys book of in
fantry drill are given seventeen exercises
called Setting up exercises. You can see
what this means by the explanation of
their purpose; they are given sin order
to retain a proper set-up and to keep the
muscles supple
I propose to give you all these seven
teen exercises before 1 am through. and II
every woman Jill of you will study these
faithfully and practice them vigorously she
VIII need no other indoor exercises for gen.
eral development.
II you are exercising for a specific de-
velopment, that Is another matter. In that
case you will need a more elaborate syS-

Inequalities in the Art Market.
From the New York Worl,

A curious contrast was observable on
Friday. On the stock exchange the brokers
were bewailing the dullest day they had
ever known. Nobody had any money for
stocks, and to improve their idle hours the
brokers sat around in the corridors OF the
exchange and read magazines. That same
evening a crowd of eager picture BUYERS
gathered at the Waldorf ana bid against
each other for the last batch of a collec-
ton of paintings. They paid S131 500 on
this the third evening of the sale which
brought the total price of the collection I'D
to $205, 135. 1t was one of the most sue
cessful sales ever known in New York
1t seems. then. that it is not lack of
money that accounts for the dullness in the
stock market any more than for the dull
ness in the theatrical business. People
have money for things that they want and
they simply will not spend it for things
that they do not want. 1t appears that
their taste in art has been cultivated They
are willing to pay high prices for genuine
hand-painted pictures by Corot and Diaz,
but they have no use for the most elegantly
engraved certificates offered on the stock
exchange. They will fight to see 'Parsi-
far at SO a ticket but they could not be
driven to some of the 50 shows on Broad
way with mandamus. Of course, there is
another consideration, too. Even Corots
would be cheap If there were no limit to
their quantity and perhaps the handsome
specimens of the engravers art that go
begging on Broad street might be better
appreciated if 1t were not for their free and
unlimited coinage.

Stylish Stationery.

FROM the New York Times.
The stationery used by New York society
women varies greatly in shade and size. in
accordance with the taste of originality of
the users. Mrs Clarence Mackay whose
favorite flower is the mauve orchid had
stationery or an orchid tint, but light
lavender. with suspicion of mauve, before
she went into mourning. Both envelopes
and paper had narrow borders of a deeper
shade. The envelopes were lined with
opaque white tissue, and were little more
inches wide.
On the flap of each was a tiny orchid in
@~feral mauve shades, inclosing Mrs Mack
US monogram in fine gold tracery At the
upper left-hand corner of each sheet of
paper was a similar orchid and at the left
embossed in heliotrope matching the border
were tiny railway engine, an envelope a
telegraph pole and wires and telephone
receiver. followed by appropriate script,
also embossed in the same color
With this stationery Mrs. Mackay AL
ways used three-cent stamps, which were
OF dark heliotrope color and harmonized
with the envelopes. After she went into
mourning her stationery at first had a deep
black border, and later it was gray with a
black band, while the orchid was done in
shaded grays with the monogram and the
embossed script in silver.
Now her papeterie is white, with a black
border at the extreme edge, and instead of
the embossed orchid on the enyelope she
uses black sealing wax, stamped with an
orchid seal. The lavender papeterie was
made to order In Paris, as was also the
gray, but the white is manufactured here.

as before. Close the hands with force.
Open the hands quickly. spreading the
fingers and thumbs apart as much as posi-
bic. Continue by repeating "close OPEN.
Sixth Exercise.-Raise the forearms until
nearly vertical fingers extended and Joined
palms toward each other Thrust upward
with force extending the arms to their full
length. Force the arms ohliquely back,
and gradually let them fall by the sides.
Continue by repeating raise, up, down."
Seventh Exercise.-Raise the forearms to
the front until horizontal, elbows forced
back, hands tightly closed, backs down.
Thrust the arms forcibly to the front, turn
ing the backs of the hands up, arms hori-
zontal. Bring the arms back quickly to the
first position, forcing elbows and shoulders
to the rear. Continue by repeating front,
rear
You'll Feel It.
The first exercise is half a gymnasium
in itself. The arms feel it, the shoulders
feel it, all the body from the hips up is
more or less stirred If you are in the
habit of suffering from a pain in the small
of the back you must use this exercise very
cautiously, for it lifts tine arms high above
the head, and this may increase the back
ache. You had better keep to the mat
work until the pain is better.
But If the experiment proves that the
first is not too much of a strain, then it is
worth fortune to you. Put all the energy
you possess into it. 1t is no simple trick
to keep the backs of all the fingers tight
together while you press your elbows back.
The minute you begin to press back the

PARIS. March ), 1904
To have her portrait hung on the line at
the portrait exhibition at the club in the
Rue d Anglais is The ambition of the social
climber here In Paris. In fact, this accom-
plishment is considered the first step on the
rung of the ladder which may carry one
into the Faubourg set. If ones purse is not
equal to the strain of so expensive step
the next best thing is to mingle with the
smart crowd and in Ito be heard voice
give ones opinion upon the dear duchess
taste in dress and the excellence of the like
ness" Vulgar is it not? But unfortunate

say their worst about them. But these
complaints have little weight with the
fashionable world. Dotted mesh is the
fashion, and milady wears it on all occa-
slons. Though dotted wells are no inven-
ton of this season, the patterns decidedly
are. The size of the chenille dot varies
from a point as large a French knot
to bunch of Silken fuzz a half inch or
more in diameter. These latter are nat
urally Incorporated in the veil borders only.
The medium-sized dots are used in
great variety of pretty patterns. Concen-
trio and interlocked circles, delicate cres-
cents and spiral lines prove that the curve
is the line of beauty. Then there are
strange minglings of dashes, angles and
squares which remind now of the early
Phoenician writing, now of the border of
a Japanese print. Indeed, to the average
observer It is the Japanese alone which is
brought to mind. 1t almost seems that by
scanning the veil more closely the pima
cles of tea house, a fantastic bridge or
q miniature garden will disclose themselves.
Latest Novelties
There is no lack of daring in the veil
patterns. Among the latest novelties is a
veil of rich brown chiffon appliqued with
gilded acorns. A vivid blue one has a
border of lozenges outlined in dots of dull
sage green silk. Even more attractive from
its quiet elegance is a black net with a
border of butterflies in tiny jet sequins
The same butterfly pattern is reproduced
on a black veil in gilt and silver.
Sequins and pailetfes play an important
part on the more elaborate wells But on
these they more often tone in with the
shade of the veil than stand out in glar-
ing contrast. That is one of the fancies
of the moment to match the veil with the
hat, and not only with the hat but with
the whole costume.
I'VE have never had so great a variety

nent veil importers. Every one of the new

High in Favor.
Silk will be worn more than ever this
summer, and if the war keeps on the orr

consequently perverse women will think
more of them than ever. Tiny glace
checks made up in shirt waist dresses will
be just as popular as ever, and a neat, at
tractive design for one of these is to box
plat the skirt, letting the plaits flare out
wide at the bottom to about the knee,
where they gradually narrow up into the
waist. The blouse is also box plated and

Many of the dotted wells are so deli
cate in mesh that the weight of the dots
would play havoc with the foundation. To
obviate this danger an under veil of plain
net or chiffon is used Pretty color effects
are produced by having this inner founda-
ton of a slightly different shade from the
outer veil.
Shaded Wells
Shaded wells are one of the latest novel;
ties. They shade from white to flame color,
from white to vivid green or from white
to deep blue. These are charming. but
even more recherche effects are obtained.
A veil which shades from blue to silver re.
minds the behoder of moonlight, while thu

These shaded wells are intended for drap-

there has ever been such a fad for veil
draperies. This necesstates three or at
least two, wells for every hat-one for the
face and the other-or others-for face or
drapery. as the fancy dictates.
The "four-in-one" veil is intended to ill
this need. The dotted face veil is drawn
around the hat more or less snugly and
fastened at the back by Jeweled clasp
The same clasp holds a two or three yards
length of chiffon or crepe. The ends may be
brought loosely around to the front and
tied in knot on the breast, or one end
may be draped over the hat and the other
brought around over the shoulder, or both
may be utilized for hat drapery. Crepe

SUMMER GIRL OF 1904
CAN CLAIM KINSHIP WITH THE
YELLED WOMEN OF THE EAST.
For Her Veil Will Reac+ Nearly to Her
Feet-Delicate Shades for
Hat Drapery.

| Written for The Evening Star.
The wheel of fashion has taken a turn
| in the dirr ction of the orient. The summer
| girl of 1904 can claim kinship with the
| yelled women of the east. for, like the
| Salomes of biblical days. her veil floats
nearly to her feet, and is as many colored
| as the shadngs of a rainbow
The American girl first developed
penchant for wells several seasons ago.
French promenaders of the Paris boule-
wards spoke scoffngly of the American
and her inevitable veil. But from soothing
they learned to initiate. The French maya
zines de la mode have this last winter been
full of descriptions of wells worn by this
or that beauty and unstinted in praise of
| their graces and charm.
1t is distinct triumph for American
taste in fashion.
1t is strange that the astute French wo-
men have not been quicker to recognize the
possibilities of the veil Have they not
read the stanzas of the eastern poets eulo-
giving the pearls of the harem? Eyes
never flash bewitchingly or lips burn
with vivid a scarlet as behind the SHIN
mering folds which half reveal and half
conceal.
The American girl must be better read
Or. perhaps, it is but another display of
her Wanted powers of intuition.
Will Soon Reach the Zenith.
Whatever may be the cause her pencil
ant for wells has been growing for the past
three seasons, till now it promises to reach
its zenith
The woman who would go automobiling
finds her veil as much a necessity as an
ornament In fact, some of the automo-
bile wells anything but ornamental
But their fire mesh keeps out the flying
particles of grit and dust. which are ruin
GUS to the complexion, while the isinglass
eye pieces allow clearness of vision.
There are various methods for fitting the
automobile veil to the hat Small steel
hoops can be had to fit snugly around the
crown. But these are trifie unwieldly, so
some ingenious milliner happened upon the
idea of using a thin flexible wire in their
place. The woman who is not so particu-
lar. the one who has hat with an odd
shaped brim. finds a silk cord sufficiently
suited to her purpose.
Whatever the means of fitting the wells
to the hat brim, the general method is the
same Enough is allowed from the center
of the length of three or courtyard veil
to abundantly encircle the edge of the
brim. This is fitted with q casing and the
hoop, wire cord is run through it. The
two ends thus left crossed over in the
back and brought around to tie in a bow
under the chin. The head of the automo-
bilist is thus perfectly veil-inclosed.
But the automobile wells have found ia
vor with women who, either from fear or
from lack of opportunity, so much
as set foot in one of the horseless vehicles.

of sartorial excitement in her charming cos
