NEW SHIRT WAIST FABRIC.

For shirt waists there's a new fab
ric 1t is the richest looking stuff,
though it has not thread in it that
isn't cotton But it is mercerized cot
ton. and that makes all the difference
in the world. The goods is very soft,

handsome canvas or basket weave.
This new stuff comes in variety Of
plaids, about half of the surface of
each being white. In one of these
blue will predominant; in another red
and in still another green. says an ex-
change.
These plaids come at a most oppor-
tune time. A pleasing novelty is al
ways acceptable, and just now, when
womankind is keeping her eyes open
for something not entirely common
place for her winter shirt waists, it is
particularly timely.
One admirable feature of this fab
ric for the ubiquitous shirt waist IS
that it will require no trimming And,
in fact, the palmer it is the better 1t
will look. This is very likely to be
the case with heavy goods, and as for
plaids, we all know what ticklish
things they are to trim. Well cut
with few plaits so laid as not to
make ugly breaks in the pattern OF
the plaid (this is an important item) /,
this new stuff is certain to be fetching
and to be desirable addition to any
woman's collection Of cool and cold

and a plain silk tie a woman will be

A single note in the other direction
is happily sounded by Jerome, who
asks:
who invented the mischievous
falsehood that the way to a mans
heart is through his stomach? How
many silly woman, taking it for
truth. has let love slip out of the par
lor while she was busy in the kitchen ?''
Does not the truth lie in a happy me-
dunn between these two extremes-a
house neat and well managed in every
respect. and yet all the wheels so well
creased that they "go round" without
calling the attention of the world to
all the secrets of their solution?

Brains, Dear Madam Are Indeed Necessary

UGGESTIONS for the appropri-
ate selection of a wife and then

ried to her." have ever been IA
vorite and fertile themes for
masculine writer's, both ancient
and modern. Not much is said about
the man, the impression evidently pre-
vailing that he is all right IL he be

to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Great stress is invariably laid upon
a well-kept house, economy and a
good and varied table. 1t seems sur
prising that from Juvenal down the in
tellectual matron has been in bad color,
there being great unanimity in the be-
lief that domesticity is endangered by
an overplus Of brains. Juvenal de-
clares:

Have a Hobby.

Since the home woman is the indis-
pensable woman, it is pity she so
often allows herself to fail of her full
development and reward. says Harper's
Bazar. She is apt to be so unselfish
and so conscientious that she let's the
four walls of home narrow about her.
and the simplest remedy is to have at
least one outside interest. The woman
who takes up one hobby. one charity,
one line of work beyond her household
cares, and follows 1t steadily. will find
that it brings freshness and power with
it. Tt becomes both outlook and inflow
to her. And the woman with a hobby
grows old so slowly that she often
never grows old at all, but keeps to the
last that freshness of interest which is
the mark OF youth.
