THE NEW NEGLlGEES.

Few articles OF the wardrobe are pors
alluring to the girl who delights In dainty
belongings than the tea gowns as they
are unfortunately called. Many OF these
gowns are really simple little dresses and
are quite appropriate for a Sunday sup
per or any Informal dinner A fetching
little creation which won the heart OF
one of the winters debutantes was OF
blue taffeta, a blue as deep as the
heavens. II was given q one-piece effect
by a wide shirring at the waist, which
made II possible to forego the corsets. IL
the wearer wished TO be ideally comfort
able. The skirt was slashed on one side
and outlined with the yellow taffeta
piping. As the dearest lingerie skirt, all
lacy rufies, with mysterious blue ribbons
and pink rosebuds, could be seen as the
merry wearer moved her feet the result
was enhancing. The waist fastened at
one side and was outlined with piping.
IL was almost harsh in it's severity, but il
was NOSE becoming to the owner, who
possessed a pretty plump neck, which
showed off to excellent advantage.
new feature was the long sleeve, which
was attached to the low shoulder seam,
and was finished at the wrist with lace,
dear little cap Of lace, with blue and
yellow flowers tucked into the filmy ro-
settles Of the lace at the sides, completed
the picture.
More elaborate are the bewildering
creations Of chiffon, or lace, with over,
dresses Of the pompadour chiffon, caught
here and there with chiffon rosebuds
frosted with silver, or the metallic flowers
with their winning sparkle. The long
flowing lines which must of necessity be
a feature of gowns Of this type, lend
dignity and oldtime charm to a young
girl which Is very winsCme.
For the boudoir there is an endless ar
ray of appealing negligees, saul de Its,
kimonos and other undress confections
The prettiest Of these are fashioned from
crepe de chine or one OF the soft silks
which cling so lovingly to the figure, and
are literally incrusted with lace or
touches Of handwork in the form of fine
embroidery. There is no prettier sight
than the debutante arrayed in one OF these
pretty gowns nibbling her toast and sip
ping her coffee while she tells the story
of the triumphs and conquests from the
ball Of the previous night.
For more unitarian purposes there are
very comfortable bathrobes of eiderdown
and quilted satin, which envelop the girl
ism figure completely, or charming negli-
gees of cashmere, albatross. or challe
with hand embroidered scalloped edges,
quillngs OF ribbon and other simple yet
effective trimmings. These intimate robes
form a more important factor in the ward
robe than one might think, for If they are
dainty and pretty they add TO the sense
of satisfaction and rest which the young
girl Graves for the moments in which she
can relax, while on the weekend visits
when the girls congregate in the room of
one of the group TO talk over the evenings
fun.

other changes IN wOman's condition; TX
tension of the suffrage TO women does
not mean the extension Of another right
to the Individual woman; it means the
imposition Of another duty upon all wom-
en-, in addition TO those they already
carry. With these facts in mind, it Is
very evident that woman's rights and
woman suffrage are not one and the same
thing, but are in reality very far apart.
Has Her Civil Rights.
Woman has attained her Individual
freedom and her civil rights without the
ballot, and il it were known Tomorrow
that no woman in this state would ever
vote, not single activity in which WON
an is now engaged would be restricted;
her civic work would not be weakened;
no university or college would close Its
doors TO her and she would not be shut
out Of = single profession or industry
The suffragists tell us that influence
such as women now possess, without re-
spOusibility, is very dangerous. II infiu-
ente without responsibility is dangerous,
political authority without fun political
responsibility would be a thousand times
more dangerous. II would be, in fact,
farce for all the talk in the world cannot
alter the fact that the state has been
built up 10y men. Its institutions, its
commerce, It's industries, depend in the
last resort upon masculine strength and
courage, and therefore the real response
bility Of maintaining the state rests with
men, There is no denying the fact that
in the last analysis government rests
upon force; law becomes cnfeebled un-
less there is knowledge that there -
force back OF IT,
II this proposition to enfranchiso wom-
en-. or any other political change, would
be conducive to 5000 government, then
the whole community has a right to de-
mand II, but II it would not be conducive
to good government, then the whole COM
munity, and especially those chiefly af-
fectcd by It, have the right TO oppose 1t.
This is the platform upon which the
anti-suffragist stands to-day. We do not
believe the extension OF the suffrage TO
all women in New York State would
benefit either the state or woman her
self nor bring about improved govern
mental CondItlOns-therefore We oppose IT,.

Of his garbage, there was no question
that every hotel, with its enormous guam

Votes for women" has an alIuring
sound, and 7 believe there are hundreds
Of women to-day rallving around the ban
ner with these words who have no idea
of the relation between suffrage and gov
eminent, who do not realize or under
stand woman's legal status in the com
munity and who have been carried away
by catch words and phrases which they
have never stopped to reason out to a
conclusion
This question Of investing women with
political responsibility is enormously as
ISOLATED in the minds Of many with all
the marked changes which have taken
place in woman's position in the last
sixty years but there is. as a matter of
fact a vast difference between civil
rights which women have attained during
this period and political power or re-
sponsibility, which is in reality the i'm
position of public duties.
No one will deny that under the old
common law which we inherited from
England woman suffered from many legal
disabilities, but these have largely been
removed through legislation, and men
have granted women legal rights and
privileges which, in many Instances, far
exceed their own, until to-day In. some
states woman is mans superior in the
eyes OF the law.
Various Other Changes.
And the other changes which have
taken place in woman's position during
the last half Century-the advantages Of
the higher education and her entrance
into the professions and new fields of in
dusry-haye all been an extension OF
civil or personal rights, and have there
fore been in the natural line Of develop
ment-and the course of progress always
lies in this direction.
|, But personal freedom has little or moth
ing to do with sovereign authority
Votes for women" means votes for ali
women, and this is the lire Of cleavage
which the anti-sunragist recognizes be-
tween this question OF investing women
