Miss Payzant Gives Somc Useful Hints
For the Woman VINO Travels.

With women most OF the comforts or
discomforts of travel depend upon the
clothes worn. These must not be OF
wash goods that easily crinkle or of things
that are hard to do up yet some OF
these easily crnkled wash goods are nec-
essary for long trip. Besides clothes.
toilet conveuiences must be carried by
the traveller. as those furnished by the
railroads and steamboats, are necessarily
limited. You will find comfort only in
such creams, lotion powders and soaps
as you take with you.
For the all round useful costume a tall
orcd suit Of lightweight cloth or mohair
Is indispensable No applied trimming
should be used on this costume which Ia
much smarter made in plain ma nnish
style, with sem-fitting coat and pleat-
ed or circular gored skirt short enough
to clear the ground in comfortable walk
ing length. AS to the hat n wide brim-
med sailor of black straw is very smart.
but If the wearer is not sufficiently
youthful or for any reason a plain sailor
Is rot becoming. any simple trimmed
straw hat or toque can he substituted.
Hats trimmed with flowers arc not nd
visabe as they too soon look crushed
and dusty. but wings and quilts and rib
oons are most appropriate on the most
dedra BILE hats designed for such wear.
Have two petticoats of ponEce or grass
linen (the linen is much cheapcr) and
wear tan shoes and stockings and dog
skin gloves. with this suit as described
above have one pongee waist. two Of
butchers linen, one Of white wash silk
one Of dark cotton cheviot DO not get
those OF null or lawn which do not keep
clean longer than a day even under tho
most favorable circumstances. Have one
dark crush leather belt, two Of linen

or a dark ribbon the color Of the suit
with white turnovers.
Do not wear an elaborate travelling
gown or much trimmed night dress and
conspicuous sack. very useful dress
Ing sack is made Of black crepe with
colored border n kimono style People
most accustomed TO travelling do not
wear their handsomest clothes. but dress
simply, keeping their hest for other
places than dirty coaches For a night
dress outing flannel or henley serge Is
good. or a figured cotton wolfe will give
one less the feeling of undress.
The travelling bag includes brush and
comb. tooth, nail and clothes brush. wash
cloth and sponge, soap cases. tooth pow

night dress and dressing sack. It is us
ual to include in the list Of toilet articles

mirror. bottle Of toilet water and n
pair of slippers. 1t is restful to remove
ones walking boots during long day
