Curiosities Of the Couture.

The custom of pewdering the hair dates
back as far as the sixteenth century and
was first introduced by the nuns in French
converts. Those who had occasion to leave
the cloisters for any reason were wont to
powder their hair so as to make 1t appear

fashionable danes were SO struck with the
novel effect of white powder on dark hair
that they soon appropriated the device as
one of the arts of the worldly toilet. Out
of this grew the use of tints in the hair.
The Roman women often used blue pow

sst the fashion of using gold powder. Rome
under the empire and Greece during the
time of Perieles were seized with mania
for golden hair. The bellies and tops of
the day devised several methods whereby
black locks might be changed to golden
yellow but bleaching did not always sue
ceed Consequently quite trade was es-
tabIished with the fair-haired tribes beyond
the Alps, who sold their locks to Latin
merchants to be worn on the heads OF
Roman handles.

The gowns of the debutantes are Of spe
cial interest. In this country they are as
a rule, much more elaborate and made of
richer materials than in Europe, where, in
France especially, the idea is that of the
simplicity ascrtbed to the jeune file. In
Paris many modistes refuse to make up
satins and velvet for the debutante and
insist on tulle, chiffon or similar airy fab
RIGS appropriate to youth. Here in New
York white satin usually. however. of the
liberty variety, is the favorite material
with debutantcs. Satin makes dura BILE
frocks that viii stand cleaning, while tulle
perishes at once and chiffon is never the
same after ii is cleaned. Chiffon cloth and
crepe de chine and the liberty silks and
satins are warranted to stand. compare
lively speaking, a considerable amount Df
wear and tear, including cleaning. White
lace Is also good investment when not too
frail, and may be repaired when torn, the
repairs not showing if the work be skill
fully done.

The Reading Habit.
e Sew YORK; EyenIng POST.

From the New York Evening Post.
The craze for statistics showing what peo-
pie read and who their favorite autfprs
are, has extended to France Among the
peasantry, interest in literature seems to
be increasing. The peasants In very re-
mote places read chiefly the local news
papers and the almanac, which In both
France and Switzerland is kind of popu-
Lar magazine. In less isolated spots. a
great deal has been done for the people by
the schoolmasters. who have organized lit
erary clubs where books are read and dis
cussed, and often borrowed People of
the humber classes have begun to read
works of history and fiction. 1t appears
that Victor Hugo h by all odds the most
popular author; but II is his prose, not his
poetry, which the peasants admire Alex
andre Dumas is next in their affections, and
among the contemporary writer's lola, Dau-
Diet and Lott are the favorites Some of
them even profess to like yoitaire. although
Il IS to be feared that this is only a pose.
They fail to designate any OF his works.
L. MARITIME is the favorite poet, and Mich
elet the favorite historian. A liking for
Victor Hugo's stories may not be sign
OF fastidious taste. but it is better than the
mad Philistinism which worships some OF
our literary Dagons.
