PAMFERING AMERICAN GIRLS

Their ImT crtance in Society Out Of All
Proportion to Their Achievements.
The importance of the young woman
in American society is out of all pro-
portion to her achievements, and nat
urally, where such Importance is the
rule, the social tone, however gay"
is unintellectual and devoid of the
mellcwness which makes the formal
intercourse of human beings an insti-
tuition. In stead Of being taught in
childhood that her business is to
serve. and that her only chance of
happiness is in service, she is virtually
taught that everything must be done
for her. The rewards of woman's
existence-love, respect, difference
are thus placed at the wrong end Of
life. To begin with, the sense Of val.
ues is lost by the profusion Of Christ.

Craze for Feathers.

/. Can the craze-and the prices. too
possibly soar any higher for the
novelty feathers than they now are?
The undressed ostrich, the cog, goura
cassoway and paradise are at the top
notch of popularity and almost fabu,
lous prices are paid for them. Imagine
what looked to be delicate piece OF
seaweed dyed black being marked at
$17.79 and three scraggy split ostrich
feathers bringing almost as much!
The lovely dropping ostrich plumes
will cost more, but then they are SC
fascinating that one cannot be blamed
for parting with goodly sum in order
to possess them.

easy matter to give it up for good.

A girl writes: Mother had been

not give up coffee as cousin of mine

But Mother was such a slave to coffee

WoMEN's SENSE OF BEAUTY.
This 10 Chief Cause Of Their Extravs-
gance In Cress.

Modern women are extravagant,"
says Mrs. Ellen H. Richards, but 1t IL
the conditions of our modern life. with
Its loss of personal independence,
which are to blame for this extrava-
gance.' ~ 49, Il JtN
Mrs. Richards teaches in the Insti-
tute Of Technology and is deeply In
terested In educational questions, par
ticularly those which relate to econom-
lie and industrial training, but before
everything else Mrs. Richards Is a
gracious, charming lady who moves
among the glass TASKS and Bunsen
burners OF her chemical laboratory
with the same poise and dignity which
her mother probably showed In the lin
en- room so years ago, says the Bos-
ton Herald. So one isn't surprised to
find that while the tech teacher
realizes perfectly all the temptations
which the modern woman Is heir to-,
her plea is not the overcoming OF these
temptations by mannish disregard OF
all pretty things, but rather return
to the old, beautiful ideals Of living,
which recognized primarily that things
were not really pretty" unless they
were also good"
She compared the women Of to-day
and of so years ago as regards the
quantity and the quality of their
dresses.
did you never hear Of the judges
wife in one of our Massachusetts
towns" she asked, who had only
three gowns?"
Her gray eyes smiled quietly as she
watched the establishment of her
twentieth century listener, and she
continued in calm enjoyment:
Eyes, she had her morning gown, in
which she did her housework-linsey
woolsey, l suppose it was, spun by her
self-and she had the gown which she
wore for calls and at church, and then
she had her beautiful brocade, heavy
and rich and splendid-why, 1t would
stan6 alone! And it cost great deal,
because 1t was such lovely thing;
but she wore it and wore it and hand
ed 1t down to her daughter and even
now it's the most precious dress OF
the daughters daughter.
But compare with that inventory
the gowns of woman of to-day. She
must have her morning dress, which
she can never wear in the afternoon;
she must have gowns for street wear,
for dinners, for receptions, for dances,
for lectures. And yet-she hasn't one
really nice dress out Of the lot-how
can she, when she must have SO
many?
ITS this desire for the show OF
things and not for the real goodness
underneath that is the greatest extrav-
agance of modern women" declared
Mrs. Richards with increasing fervor.
Instead of getting one nice gown
which will last for years and years,
we get these slazy stuffs which pull
to pieces before the season Is over
And the reason is that our sense Oh
beauty is defective"
