silk and wool materials and for al
most everything seasonable. 1t is
peculiarly well adapted to the entire
gown, for which voile, henrietta
cloth, wool batiste and the like are
desirable, while it also suits the odd
blouse admirably well, and utilized
in this way is admirable, both for the
plain and plaid taffetas, and also for
the thinner and lighter embroidered
nets and chiffons that are so much
in vogue. The little vest portion is
a feature and an attractive one, and
sleeves can be made longer or shorter
as liked.
The waist is made with a fitted
lining, which is closed at the centre
front, and itself consists of fronts,
back, chemisette and vest portions.
The fronts and the backs are tucked
and the vest portions are attached to
the front edges. The collar finishes
the neck and the closing is made in
visibly at the left side. The prettily
full sleeves are finished with roll
over cuffs, and are arranged over
fitted Innings, which are faced to
form the deep cuffs when long sleeves
are desired.
The quantity of material required
for the medium size is three and
three-quarter yardstwenty-one, three
and one-eighth yards twenty-seven or
one and five-eighth yards forty-four
inches wide, with one-half yard of
all-over lace and three-quarter yard
of silk to make as illustrated, one
yard of all-over lace if long sleeves
are used.

Lips to Be Red.

Lips will be of deep rich red this
season. Hips, as a topic, have had
their day, and despite all the dictates
of Panquin, women seem to be as
hipless or "hipful" as they were be-
fore. The prophets could make only
conjectures in regard to hips. 1t re-
mained to be seen what the New
York woman would do. But the
writer has seen the lips, and unlike
all talk about hips, can say that the
deep rich red is the latest fad. The
majority of the women whose lips
looked as though done with pure
crimson madder from the tube were
beyond the kissing age. One saw
them not in hundreds but certainly
by the dozens at the Manhattan
Opera House recently. One would
never have concluded that they had
neither chance nor inclination for
kisses, had they not all been so cross
to their husbands, as they entered,
and when there was any little un-
certainty about finding seats One
wondered il they had any children
at home who expected a good night
kiss after Now l lay me-" and the
GOD bless popper'n mommer"
prayer. With crimson madder lips,
the face is usually pure white, with
out rouge, and in the majority OF
cases was as powdery as freshly
su-ared cruller. Ente:..g the Met
ropolitan Opera House, there is not
such a strong cruel light, and both
powder and lip rouge are absorbed
somewhat in an hour, or often less.
At the Manhattan, on .he other hand,
many of the women enter the house
through the doors JUS in back of the
orchestra. Here there is a clear, cold
light; nothing crimson and kindly
as there is at the Metropolitan. Even
tl:b unshaved Sicilians among the
standees looked with amazement at
these white-faced women with bright
red lips. Some of the innocents
among the mere men imagined they
were members of the chorus who had
entered by the wrong door.-Brook-
lyn Life.

Blind Girls Earnings.

J Miss Cora Crocker, deaf, dumb
and blind girl, has surprised her
teachers in the workshops of the
Massachusetts Commission for the
Blind, in Cambridge, by the quick
ness with which she has mastered the
intricate machinery of her loom and
the beauty and delicacy of her work.
She has only just passed her twenty
first birthday and has been under the
care of teachers for a comparatively
short time, yet she weaves the most
delicate fancy articles, dainty colored
bdesigns. She is said to be the only
person so afflicted who has ever sue
ceeded in doing such beautiful work.
There are several blind women work
ing in the same shop who do good
work, but she is the only one who
can neither speak nor hear. Her
earnings, it is said, of more than
$40 month are steadily increasing.

right were inclined to anticipate.
Still, when 1t is considered that only
spinsters or widows could stand and
that in several instances bqroughs
were being served by well-tried and
fully trusted members of long stand
ing, there is perhaps no reason to
feel otherwise than satisfied.
Notable among those who have
been returned is Miss Dove, who
headed the poll at High Wycombe.
She is an advanced educationalist,
who for some years past has been
head mistress of Wycombe Abbey
School, with about 200 young ladies
in residence under her care.
Another striking success is that
of Miss Merivale at Oxford. She is
a daughter of the late Dean Merivale,
the historian, and her candidature
enjoyed the support of many leading
members of the university. She will
take her seat as an Independent, and
education is a strong point with her.
This, too, figured prominently in the
campaign of Miss Sutton, who was
returned unopposed at Reading. Mrs.
Woodward at Bewdley was also
spared the troubles of any contest,
as was Mrs. Garrett Anderson at
Aldeburgh. In Scotland the ladies
were less successful. Four came for
ward and none have been returned.
1t is significant that Lady Steel was
rejected at Edinburgh, for she has
been among the most militant of suf-
fragists, even to passive resistance"
as to paying her rates and taxes, and
the rebuke may be taken to heart
by those who think noisy methods
are approved by the majority of their
sisters.-London Telegraph.

Girls French Dress.


The French, or long wasted, dress
is always becoming to the younger
girls, and is so pretty and graceful
that it is very general favorite.
This one can be made adapted to
party and dancing school wear or to
everyday use as one material or an
other is chosen and as one trimming
or another is used. AS illustrated
the frock is a dressy one made with
short sleeves and the material is fine
white lawn with trimming of en-
broidery, but in the back view 1t Is
shown made from bright red yelling
with frills of ribbon and becomes a
very much more durable, everyday
garment. For the more dressy frocks
white is always charming, and the
younger children wear washable ma
terials at all seasons, but for the
slightly older girls cashmere or veil
ing in such colors as pale blue and
pink are much to be commended with
the trimming of ribbon and the yoke
of some pretty lingerie material or a
simple lace or embroidered net. For
everyday wear dark colored cash
meres and veilings are given prefer
ence over everything else.
The dress is made with the waist
and the skirt. The waist is full and
Is arranged over fitted body lining,
which is faced to form the yoke and

An Economical Empress.

In private life the Empress of Ger
many wears hardly any jewels. In
fact, her life, apart from State occa-
sions, is conducted on the simplest
possible lines. She is extremely eco
nomical regarding the clothing of
her children. When her sons were
boys the suits of the elder ones were
actually cut down to fit their young
er brothers. The Empress is equally
careful with her own wardrobe. She
has a staff of dressmakers who are
always at work remodeling her
gowns, so that it is possible for her
to appear several times in them with

Women in BUSINESS

In nearly all executive positions
women excel. 1t is curious that the
sex, after so many years of intellec-
tual seclusion, should have practical
qualities strongly developed. But 1t
seems to me that there are only two
things in which the business woman
is apt to fail. One of these is in
working with other women, the other
is in her inclination to play tricks
with her nervous system by having
irregular meals of unwholesome food
and neglecting to take exercise

Washington Women Great Walkers

Washington Women Great Walkers.
AS they all recognize the need of
fresh air in Washington, as else
where, il they wish to retain their
health, many high-placed dwellers
in the capital give several hours a
day to exercise in the open. The
President gets out for at least three
hours daily, no matter how pressing
public affairs may be. Mrs. Roose-
welt spends even more time than that
in walking, driving or superintend-
ing her flower garden. Almost all
the Washingtonians in official life
recognize the need of the daily prone
made. Many are seen in business
streets in the morning, going on
household errands. Mrs. Knox, Mrs.
Garfield and Mrs. Cortelyou make
many of their calls on foot. Indeed,
Eli Washington takes every excuse
for walking. Any bright morning the
stranger may see Mrs. Roosevelt, her
handsome young daughter and many
of the women taking brisk constitu-
tionals in the secluded portions of the
Mall and bypaths Of the Speedway.

Cross-Stitching Hints.

If each stitch is not crossed in the
same direction the effect will be poor.
1t is always better to work as much
as possible in straight line, so that
each stitch may receive its tension
from the same direction.
Cross-stitching is well adapted to
table and magazine covers, the mark
ing of linen, soft pillows, floor cush-
jcns and bags of all kinds.
Red and white and blue and white
linen are the favorite materials for
ehese articles when decorated with
cross-stitching. This work must not
be confused with the checked ging-
ham embroidery of few years ago.
- 1t is quite different in appearance,
The heavy linen, with its lustrous
finish, giving a strong, artistic back
