Slashed Petticoat.

We have had the tango" gown;
now has descended upon us the "tan-
go" petticoat. This latest addition to
the wardrobe of the fashionable wo-
man is made of but two pieces, with
seams in the side, which, needless to
say, are open to point just above the
knee. The front and back breadths Of
the petticoat are scalloped, sloping
gradually up to the joining of the
seams at the knee. The garment in
this instance is edged with a plated
ruffie of the silk of which the skirt is
made, but lace Of almost any kind
would be nearly as effective. To regu-
late the height of the skirt slashes on
each side of the openings there have
been sewn crocheted rings, through
which a lacing of ribbon is passed.

Women as Railway Servants.

A signalwoman has been employed
on the line between Morebath and
hampton, near the Somerset border of
Devon, for the last 20 years, and an
other at Lee Crossing. near Minehead.
But women are employed on the rail-
ways in other places besides the West
country. Rosemount station, on the
Caledonian railway, and Langford, Es-
sex, have station-mistresses. At Bray
stones, on the Furness railway, and
at Dovenby station, Cumberland, there
are women who not only manage the
signals, but issue tickets and do all
the work in connection with the trains.
More women probably are employed
on the railways in Russia than in any
other European country. There are
computed to be between 10000 and
10000 women working on the Russian
state railways. They act as gate-keep-
ers, clerks and telegraphers. Their
salaries are small. Women attend
ants at the stations receive only about
ga 5s. year, with free lodging and
certain extras. Women clerks receive
about &4S year.-Family Herald.

JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

The couture isbfinished with an Or
namented band and single, curling
spray of Paradise. The band in this
costume is made of fiat jade beads
matching those worn with the cos
tune about the neck. But there are
innumerable bands, those of black
gauze or velvet and rhinestones being
among the most effective.
The costume worn by the handsome
brunette is of black velvet and silver
embroidered net, with skirt which
appears to wrap about the figure, ter
minating in a high waist line. The
rather scanty bodice is made Of white
chiffon. With a drapery Of gossa-
mer lace it would be much prettier
and more in keeping with American
ideas of modesty, which criticism is
made without apologies to the great
designer, who, with such wonderful
fabrics to work with, yet missed the
final finishing touch by placing glori-
Gus skirt with an insignificant waist
on so splendid a model.
The couture suits the style of the
wearer and her costume. 1t is one Of
those that almost any one will find
becoming, except women with very
thin faces and necks. For them
there are other designs which soften
or conceal their defects.

NAASTR|CHT HILLS.
Commonplace Elsewhere, They
Are Mountains in Holland.
Character About the Dutch Uplands
That Is Quite Their own-lt Is
at Meerssen That Netherlands
Take HiIly Proportions.

Berlin.-I suppose that a traveller
opening his eyes suddenly upon the
hills near Maastricht, in Dutch Lin.
burg, after having been conducted
thither blindfold from some other
country, would not find them very re-
markable. But let him approach them
over many miles of fiat landscape fol-
following the barge route of the Zuid
Willems canal, and they appear the
most romantic of mountains. The
eye has for so long grown accustomed
to the low skyline and monotonous
level that it is hungry for hill. The
spur of wooded heights and the castle.
crowned Petersberg seem to rise as if
by magic over the, water. Towed by
slow horses, or more frequently pulled
by powerful tugs, the familiar Dutch
barges and schuits, reminiscent of
ploders and the sea, pursue their way
unperturbed by the unaccustomed
heights. 1t is as if Holland had stray
ed into other lands.
Yet there is character about the
Dutch uplands that is quite their own.
At Meerssen the familiar scenery of
the Netherlands begins to rock and
swell and adapt itself to the hole of
mountaineer as it encounters the coun-
try of the hills. But it struggles to
preserve it's nationality, and succeeds.
There is a note of Holland in it all.
For instance, near Geulem, between
the stream and the ridge Of hills, is
planted a poplar wood. Through the
glades of trees, which are placed with
an orderly reserve unusual elsewhere,
glimpses of the swelling green upland
appear, and the mingling of formal for
est with the steep valley-side is what
one would imagine Dutch mountain
to look like if there were mountains
in Holland-and there are. AS the
