WOMEN FLORISTS.

Women florists. Why not? Yes, III
deed, why should not women try their
hand and artisticality at this business
as we'll as men, and it seems rather
strange that it has not been tried long
ago. 1t has now become quite a fad
to employ women decorators, and they
have proven to be a great benefit in
this kind of work. There is great pos
siblity of them overstepping the
bounds of popularity and making the
male portion feel rather out of place.
At a recent wedding the decorations
were most superb, and the hostess took
great delight in making known the
fact that a woman decorated. She also
added that "as many times as l have
had the house decorated, it has never
looked so beautiful as now" The
work may not be exactly genteel, and
yet it is equally as much so as many
other occupations. Women should
know how to tie effective bows on
bouquets and such like, and many little
touches might be added which prac-
teal man would not think Of Bridal
bouquets and all of the flowers pertain
ing to the nuptial mass must needs be
effective and artistic, and as has been
said time again, only women are capa-
BILE of obtaining the effects which are
quite necessary for this occasion. In
view of the fact that the female por-
ton of the population have undertaken
almost every branch of the wage-earn-
ing proposition it is not surprising that
they should readily take to this part
Of it.

CRINoLINE NOT RETURNING.

Although the women Of fashion have
received several severe and uncalled-
for shocks regarding the return Of
crinoline, the verdict has proved false,
for which they should be duly thank
full. But in its stead there are all sorts
of clever substitutes, which, while they
certainly do give most graceful out
line to the silhouette, are very far re-
moved from the grotesqueness of the
much-dreaded crinoline. Some women
of daring hav@ appeared on several oc-
casions gowned IN garments which

they never get beyond making them

cause for much comment 1t is true
that gowns are not as fimsy as they
might be, but Dame Fashion mas
brought the change about in her most

There seems to be no hard and fast

button glove can be worn only when
the dress and coat sleeve are very

large pearl buttons are used instead.

A READING CORNER.

Another effective arrangement is to
turn an angie in q room with the as
distance of the piano into an inviting
reading corner. When converting I
corner of this kid into coy nook
the position of tie piano from the
musicians standpoint should lie taken
into consideration. No matter how ar
l.stic the setting, no detail in room
can be success uni s it adequately
fulfills the purpose for which it is in
tended, and the reading corner is no
exception.
To place a couch or settee with its
back against a piano is altogether
wrong. The piano may make an at
tractive screen if properly manipulate
ed and form an excellent background
for seat, but the performers advan-
tage point is lost. Then another OBJ
lection is that when playing or sing
ing is going on couch placed against
the back of a piano must necessarily
be left vacant, for it is hardly an I'M
mixed pleasure to listen to music with
the ufum OIL one ear dSdlHSI tne Pr
ano.
SO the ideal way to put up corner
of this character is to draw we'll
filed bookcase quite close to the back
of the piano, with a luxurious loung-
ing chair placed near it in position
where the light from the window may
reach the reader.-Bridgeport Tele-
