SMART WAISTS
 FOR CLOTH SKIRTS
Net, Lace and Chiffon Dyed to Match Skirt Newest
 Feature.

Waists of chiffon, lace, and net are not precisely novel, but dyed to match the skirt of cloth or velvet they are strong features of this seasons styles. At recent exhibition of French mod el gowns by far the majority of them were of this order, the skirts being ex- cedlngly plain and the waists much trimmed all methods of ornamenta- ton show a tendency toward novelty and originality, with many varieties of trimmings frequently used in the construction of one waist or costume. In spite of the massing of decoration, there is 8 certain appearance of se- verity that is rather bewildering, but altogether charming nevertheless. In fact, 1t is very largely to this very in- consistency that the mode owes its at traction.
 Sometimes these chiffons or nets, or whatever the thin material may be, are made up over a white foundation, in which ease the material itself is several shades darker than the skirt cloth, in order that 1t shall tone up 1 to 1t over the white lining, Again, when it is desired that a costume shall serve for all-round purposes, the chif- fon waist and the lining are finished separately, so that different colors
 may be used. The dark, rich shades are especially adaptable for this ar- rangement

HAIR DRESSING
 FOR EVENING

For evening dress coiffures there is an endless variety of ornaments from which the discriminating woman may select that which is most becoming.
 The empire bandeau is one of the most fashionable for the younger mat rons and the woman of dignifed car riage.
 It is generally of velvet spangled with opalescent metal or jet or shin ing with jet jewels.
 It passes, say, two-thirds of the way around the head ending at the left side with a long ostrich feather that curls over the hair, or, in exaggerated instances, in a boalike arrangement about the neck.
 For the debutante there are all sorts of wreaths made of small rosebuds, white heather, crimson rosebuds--an endless choice of them,
 These are mounted on bandeaus of velvet and are finished with rosettes of maline, tulle and pale-toned rib bons
 They set beautifully over the coro- net braid, which is the most approved method of arranging the hair.

OF INTEREST TO SINGERS.

An idea is prevalent among young singers that q period of study in New York or Europe possesses some mir aculous process by which they will be transformed suddenly into artists But the history of those who have tried this reveals the fact that successful devel- opment of the voice depends upon hard work and hard study wherever the student goes, or with whomsoever he studies.
 The experience of students who have tried the abroad experiment is rarely one of unmixed satisfaction or subsequent naturalization of afore- time prophecies of grand opera careers; on the contrary, the majority of them come to this conclusion; they might better have remained in Ameri- ca and studied with teachers of known reputation, so as to make cer- tain of their development upon fun- damental lines. Then, if the vocal and intellectual development warrants broader field and the advantages of European musical environment, let them go abroad, ready for the more strenuous work of gaining a knowl- edge of grand opera roles and access sories. After that, really success ful season or two in the important musical centers of Europe will place them in the first rank of recognized artists apropos. Nordica said: T was able to support myself by singing be- 1 fore I ever went to Europe. The trouble is that singers do not realize what is required of them when they enter an operatic career. They must learn languages, and they must learn acting. Some girls imagine they can go into the chorus. Even then in some opera houses G repertoire of 80 operas in different languages Is the requirement. Europe is full of young girls who have no business there. They think they are learning to sing, out they are wasting their money.
 I am to sing at benefit concert in Paris which is given solely to raise money to send girls home who have Tailed. The situation is frightful. There should be a competent commit tee in America first to tell a girl truth sfully if hep voice is great enough to pay her to study, and second to tell her what and how she is to study, and | think 1t is safe to say that any girl who is unable to earn money with her voice before she leaves this coun- !try had better stay here"

TOUCH OF
 INDIVIDUALITY

The girl and woman who wishes the touch of individuality given by her monogram can easily embroider both her underwear and house hold linen, if at all clever with her needle.
 By selecting tho initial of the first name and simply combining that with the initial of the last it is not nearly so difficult to evolve ones monogram as IS generally supposed and costs nothing but the time it takes. Then use soft filling cotton to trace the let ters, using chain stitch to give a pad ded look, and work with fine mercer ized floss that comes for the purpose; the result more than pays for the small amount of time, trouble and cost, the latter only the few cents for the working cotton.
 French handmade underclothins is always attractive and expensive as we'll because of this very fashion of fine embroidering. Any girl may have her own quite as dainty if she will. Ones name In script is some times used; the writing should be heavier to make the embroidery natural

Henry was a little boy, who had no brothers or sisters, and he was quite spoiled,
 One day he was playing in the park, when a boy on crutehes came up to him, and his playmates, and stood watching their game
 He was not dressed very well, and his face was funny because he had suf- fered a great deal.
 Look at this funny boy' said Henry to his mates, his coat fits him like q bag.
 The lame boy looked ashamed and tried to turn away but Henry took hold of his eruteh and said why do you wear such funny clothes?' Be cause my aunt is poor and cant buy me any new ones
 One of Henry's playnlates, who was named Arthur, came un to them and said, You are mean to tease him, Hen ry, he is crying"
 Sure enough the lame boys eyes were full of tears

 He had his new chair, and a new suit. because there was enough money left over.

A pincushion made with four tiny It. tie cushions is indeed a novel and pret- ty design. In the first place four cush- ions, possibly about three and one half inches square, are made of silk and lightly stuffed with hair, sawdust, what is preferable, white wool. After the four cushions are filled the edges trimmed with small ruff1es of ribbon, each cushion is folded to form tri- angle and the connected points are fastened with small rosettes, The four are joined together by the upper points of each triangle and also finished with a pretty ribbon rosette. It is quite a pretty style, and something lately fash
