Women and Literature.
From Harper's Bazaar.


There is at least a difference of opinion in
regard to the alleged distaste of women
for severe and systematic reading. One
critic in the National Review asserts that
neither for pleasure nor on principle do
they study books which could cultivate
their minds and give them broad and stable
views of life. Another makes the comfort
ing statement that the good. or as they
are called the solid" books taken by
women from the English circulating libra
ries are in the proportion of two to five-a
very creditable average. NJ. Ernest Quen-
tin Bauchart has shown us, in Les Fem
mes Bibliophies,' that many rare and
beautiful volumes were for two centuries
collected and treasured by French women,

but Andrew Lang is of the opinion that
some of these women loved their libraries
even to the reading point. Books and
art" he says, with happy tolerance, were
probably more to Nine. de Pompadour
liking than the diversions by which she
beguiled the tedium of Louis XIV; and many
a time she would rather have been quiet
with her plays and novels than engaged in
conscientiousy conducted but distasteful
revels" La Duchesse de Montpensier-
La Grande Mademoiselle"-liked only Sc
rious and scholarly books. The frivolous
ones, she used to say, wearied and plagued
her La Grande Mademoiselle was by no
means the wisest of women. but the choice
does credit to her taste for amusement.
The romanceS of her age were a shade less
diverting than mathematics.

Bernhardt's Skin Tonic.

Sarah Bernhard, who Is well known for
her perennial youthfulness, attributes the
seeming miracle entirely to a special skin
tonic which she favors. This eau sedative
is said to have the effect of making the
flesh firm and elastic while strengthening
and whitening the skin and soothing the
terrible nerves to which our twentieth
century womanhood seems a ready prey.
The recipe for the lotion is as follows: Half
a pint of alcohol, two ounces of spirits OF
camphor two ounces of spirits of ammonia
and five ounces of sea salt. to be added to
sufficient boiling water to make a quart in
all. when the mixture should be placed in
bottle and thoroughly shaken before use.
This lotion. which should be well rubbed in
to the skin daily. is said to be especially
efficac ious in taking the fatigue out of tired
muscles.

PICN &c LUX RIES
A NEW LUNCH BASKET AND ITS
CoNVENIENCES.
Some Hints on the Use of Paraf-
fine Paper Portable
Chairs

One Of the extravag ances of the summer
season is the picnic basket or case. which
Is dainty enough to rob the al fresco meal
OF all its horrors for even the most prosaic
mortal These baskets are fitted I'D for two
SIX, or twelve people, and are made to order
for twenty-four people. They range in price
from two to ninety dollars and shopkeepers
report heavier sale in the more expensive
cases, simply because people who want this
sort Of thing at all do not bubble over
prices.
The baskets are oblong, not very high and
are made of wicker interiined to prevent the
passage of dust. The cases intended for use
by both men and women contain this equip
ment:
A square platter In blue and white china,
as light as enamle ware, but very strong.
Plates, Knives, forks, spoons, a little butter
jar labeled and encased in wicker. Salt and
pepper IN the same sort of cases A square
box for sandwiches large enough to hold
loaf OF bread, and square china dish en-
cased in nickel for salads or made dishes.
Ike a meat loaf Fringed napkins 30 match
the china. cups in the china or in metal with
handles that fold back out of the way,
sugar box, matchbox, two wicker-covered
TASKS and strap for fastening the basket
to an automobile carriage.
When party of women go out alone
they carry what is known - the tea basket,
which contains a teapot tea-kettle, alcohol
lamp AL stand, all in one piece, q sandwich
box, cups, plates, matchbox and jar for
relish.
Picnic lanterns. not unlike the ol6-fash-
toned barn lantern, but more prettily fin
ished, are rather useful when the outdoor
meal Is eaten at late hour in the woods.
There Is always commotion when the
basket is to be repacked, and then the Ian
tern fulfills its mission.
The picnic stick looks like an ordinary
cane, rather thick at the top. Stick it in
the ground, touch a spring and the top
folds back and forms in a little campstool
For clambakeS or beach picniCs. the sand
chair is extremely useful 1t is exactly like
a steamer chair without legs, and is built
grateful to any one who cannot sit on the
damp sand with impunity.
A Walking Stick.
A new and compact campstool looks like
a heavy, thick walking stick. 1t unfolds
into four legs, which cross and support two
stout strips of canvas forming the seat
1t is much lighter and simpler than the
old-fashioned campstool.
When an old-fashioned picnic basket Is
used. pretty paper napkins are preferable
to the old table linen usually delegated for
such purposes. Big sheets of white wrap
picnic tables than half-worn tablecloths
Both paper napkins and wrapping paper
can be thrown away, and there is nothing
more unpleasant than unpacking soiled
linen on the return from picnic.
Paraffine paper. such as is used for wrap
ping caramels, is the best thing for wrap
ping sandwiches, cakes, etc: and boxes In
which deviled eggs, meat loaf etc, are
packed should be first lined with paraffine
paper.

This year dress is much lighter. brighter

dainty thin fabrics the magnifcence OF de-

alone are wonderful. They run In intricate

a rosette motif. the entire decorative scheme

movement. Valenciennes lace this season,
which is so much used on gowns, Is really

thought for six months but l am sure the

summer girl more than two weeks to de-

between summer and winter materials that

of grass muslin ring spotted with black.
The trimming consisted of crossed puffings
of the muslin ending in choux of black vel

the ensemble was further heightened by
