PLAIN NEW YORK GIRLS.

WOMEN NOT SO PRETTY AS OF YORE, BUT THE MEN IMPROVING.

A We»t«rii Critic Finds the Tendency *f the Day I* Toward an fnliandaome bnt Elegant Type of Womanhood—Rigid

Attitude*—Illondes Oat of Farflion.

The stranger, especially if he oe a western stranger, will be struck by two things —one, the extreme simplicity of the women's dress, the other that the men, are so superior in looks to the girls. A western man lately told me that thin latter was the most striking thing he had noticed in New York, and that in most of the west—especially the Pacific slope—the women are far in advance of the men as to looks. But In New York for every pretty girl you saw you met a dozen splendid looking fellows, athletic, intelligent and manly.

There is no doubt about it—in the last ten years the New York type has undergone a radical change. Consult an old inhabitant if you want to verify this. We used to IK just like any other American cfty, filled up with pretty women and sadly deficient in good looking men. Now the New York woman seems to me to have sacrificed a great deal of Iter beauty for the higher development of that cold elegance, that irreproachable style which distinguishes her from any other woman in the country. The men, on the other hand, have gone on improving. Each generation has given up a little more time to athletics, to freedom from that terrible business strain which made their progenitors old before their time, pale as plants grown in a cellar, weedy and fiberless.

MINGLED FRENCH AND EKGU.SU. The women, who were the flower of the Four Hundred, are getting to have a mingled look of French and English women, which, if you remember, is what some one or other said American women really are. They have the calm and superb indifference and repose of their English sisters and the delicacy and exquisite trimness of the French. They are all wonderfully fine in their finish they have a suggestion of mingled completeness and delicacy which makes them perfect in detail as a line engraving. And they one and all have a remarkable air of distinction which would make them striking if they were dressed in rags. As for clothes, you have never seen anything simpler than their costumes. The word just now is everything as neat, as quietly rich, and as inconspicuous as possible. But oh, my, how that simplicity does cost!

You have to bo a woman, or a very acute observer, or the intimate friend of a woman to know that these chilly and soberly garbed creatures, looking demure and quiet as nuns, have run through an appalling number of $100 bills to achieve that singularly inconspicuous air. The dresses are all slim and narrow and dark, tailor made and very close fitt ing. Some of them have a little fur about them, coming out round the edges in narrow rims. There are small, close hats, setting tight round their heads, some bunched up in the back with a 1 «./ birds' wings, others low and snug on the smooth drawn glossy hair. They wear thin veils over their cream complexions, generally no bang at all. or an odd curl or rough end of hair on their temples, mid lonu, comfortable looking boots, with narrow, pointed toe, and terribly sensible, low. flat, heels. Judging by these boots, the girl who, ten years ago, wore a No. 41 shoo will today wear a No. 5. You very rarely now see the Infinitesimal feet which have to get children's sizes. They went, out with sloping shoulders and wasp waists.

VKUY ST IKK AN1) STK.UGH T.

Alt these women have the most rigidly erect, carriage—the shoulders squared and held well back, the chin up, the back perfectly flat and stiff, and the hands held crossed over the waist in front. This comes from England, where the women are all stiff and straight jus billiard cues. It is not particularly graceful, but it is healthy, and it gives them fine, vigorous looking figures. The only thing about it is that it is so unbending. They never lounge or loll negligently. You see one of them sitting up as if she were built on a noker, and you cannot imagine her in any other attitude. You picture her in your mind's eye sleeping that way, as rigid and erect as if she had looked at Medusa and been turned to Miotic.

Where there can 1m? no question about the good looks of the men, there will be a good many alxut those of the women. There are quantities of pagan outsiders who will see among the patrician concourse an immense amount of style, of tone, of air, of distinction, bnt little raw beauty. Sometimes a very young girl of l(i is seen who has the evanescent, ethereal loveliness of a lea rose but amo-rig the older women style is tlie thing. They are p:. feetly satisfied themselves, and the men are perfectly satisfied with their good looks, too. The New York man thinks the New York woman is the noblest work of the world. He would not have her changed in one slightest respect, and if you do not admin* her as much as he docs, he merely thinks that is your misfortune and not his fault.

It is the men's admiration for this elegant and high finished type that is slowly making it t.h« tyjK.*of tlotham. Students of these subjects say intense admiration for a style causes that style to prevail. St a1 tistics show that more brunettes marry than blondes, hence blondes are year by year crowing -.r.*r. A young New York man pis* v. in speaking of some exceedingly handsome cirls Jiving on Long Island, said hedid not »Inure them because their genre was so K.-nl. They wore conspicuous and aggressive clothes, big hats ami gaudy gowns. Their very l»eauty was striking, being of a high colored, yellow locked, blue eyed type that people stared at in the streets and men looked at in the elevated overt heir morning papers. "*l think they're awfully handsome and ail that," said the boy. "but they're too loud looking. I'd rather talk to a girl who was not so conspicuous and better style. I conspicuous people, even though they n.ay be conspicuous because they are pretty.*'— New York Cor. San Francisco Argonaut.

Wedding Presents.

iS

Some years ago, outside of what the wife brotight to her husband as a dower, and the gifts she received as keepsakes from her friends, there was none of what we understand now by the now comprehensive term "'wedding presents." For some time, though, the custom has been verging upon the absurd, and the funny paragrapher has pointed his wit with the father's blank check, the presents hired for the occasion, the tributes from employes, and has reveled in the snobbish ostentation of the display of gifts, set apart in an upper room, all properly tagged, with a policeman or a private detective in full evening dress to watch both the gifts and the guests. How much this public display of wedding presents has had to do with the increase in their number and cost would be well worth the study.

It is safe to say that there are many people eager to shine in society, and not quite sure of their position, who would willingly pay a wedding present as the price of having their gift laid alongside of the one sent by a more prominent person. Thus would they be assured to gain the coveted honor of having their plebeian names mentioned among the alleged patricians. Under the prevailing custom of wedding present displays no one who wishes* to gain or preserve the reputation of bfeing in the social swim can afford to1send a mean or a poor present. This factor is carefully taken into account by those making out their lists of invited guests. This many a young man has found out to his cost.—Di Vernon in San Francisco News Letter.

Liveried Maids for Servitors. The head man in one of the biggest cafes in this city spoke confidentially as follows:

I am waiting for somebody who has the nerve to employ maids in livery to serve tables in restaurants, cafes and the dining rooms of hotels. I would prefer, as a man, to see my owd sex employed, but I see enough every day to convince me that men do not make good waiters at the tables. In this country especially you can never get the idea out of a waiter's head that he isn't as good as the man whom he serves. If they are not tipped they, act sulky, and I don't dare to correct them for that. There is no curse like that of tipping a waiter.

One man who has more money than he knows what to do with will, foolishly, give a waiter nearly as much as an ordinary man pays for an ordinary dinner. If the ordinary man does not tip likewise he gets the worst of it. There is no use of talking about remedying the evil by making a rule against it. The only way is to remove the cause. You ask me if girls won't take tips. No. You can tell a girl she mustn't, and nine times out of ten she won't. Girls are better waiters in every way than men, and somebody will take the English step of employing them as servitors one of these days in this country, and then people will .see the difference.—Chicago Tribune.

The Child at the Table.

So long jus custom and necessity render it advisable to have a child at the same table with his parents these should fix upon a plan of action and adhere to it. Desiring to have their children looked upon as comforts and not jis spoil sports, they should enforce strict obedience, exact quiet at table and inculcate stringently the once honored maxim—of late years fallen sadly into disuse and disrepute—that little boys and girls should be seen and not heard. Remembering how much easier it is to check a habit at the outset than to break it off after it is fully formed, the father and mother should watch their children's table manners and repress at once the carelessness and unpleasant tricks which seem, possibly through original sin, to come naturally to most little folk. The correct handling of spoou, fork and knife should be taught as soon as they are permitted to use these implements, and slovenliness should Ik rebuked and held up as a disgrace. Not. least in importance is it that the fat her and mother should, after due consideration, establish an outline of diet for the youngsters and allow no divergence therefrom.—Mrs. Christine Terhune Herrick.

Water, Cold or Hot?

About, the cold water or the hot every lady must decide for herself. For young ladies I should say the cold water unless they are very delicate, when the cold'water will give them red noses and hands from the reaction. I should never advise any one with red hands or a red nose to use cold water. Always in such a case use it hot as can be borne and lave the nose and soak the hands five or six minutes, keeping the water hot all the while. I think ladies should have a kettle of hot water for their toilet at all times—one of those pretty bronze kettles to boil over the gas or a lamp.

For women who do not call themselves young warm or hot water is indispensable to cleanse the skin, to stimulate it and keep off wrinkles. If they like they may dash tepid water over it after the hot bath, but then the warm, dry towel, always the warm towel, madam. Women wash their faces in such a hurry, with water and soap anyhow, and wipe on a damp, soiled towel that roughens the skin. Only a beauty in her first prime can endure it, when one endures anything.—Shirley Dare's Letter.

Good Homes.

There is nothing that society or church needs so much ns it does good homes, and the power and charm of the home is most of all the mother. Ev^ry tendency is therefore to be deprecate that operates to cheapen woman's material possibilities, and to make it appear that she can subserve her mission just as well outside of domestic relations as withiu them. 1 believe that It is good sense and good scripture to say that about the best thing that can be asked for a woman is that she should marry a man, have health enough to bear children, and mind and womanliness enough to fit those children to be useful members of society.—Rev. C. H. Parkhurst,

Washing Made Comfortable. One of the. most singular of recent patents is a rocking chair washing machine. The rocking chair, which is placed in a tab in which tire water, soap and the clothes to be washed, has a rack on its rockers provided with a grooved roller. The washtub has projections on it* vertical ends, and allows of the fall play of the rocker of the chair. The result of this arrangement is that the mother of the family can rock her child to sleep iu her arms, and at. the same time be washing tho family linen.— New York Telegram.

FOR A RAINY EVENING.

Suggestions for Entertaining with fclttW Trouble a Houseful. Rainy day amusements are always in demand, and especially for that time of year when it is hardly cold enough for the great fires, but one is very willing to have a little blaze upon the hearth, or feels ho disinclination to the neighborhood of an argand gas burner. One of the pleasantest of these amusements, in the beginning and in the end, is thbt of making candy in the dining room—the caramel, the glace walnut, and the various kinds of nougat. If one has a fixture for the drop light of the dining taljle, where one is used, or, if there is no gas, with an alcohol lamp, one may accomplish some delicate work in sugar that a confectioner need not be ashamed of.

It is a good plan to remove the tablecloth and replace it by a coarser cover, and to have your few utensils kept for the purpose. Begin, then, by bringing a little water to boil in your saucepan while you are shelling about a quarter of a pound of almonds. Throw them into the boiling water for moment or two then pour out into a small wire sieve held over a bowl, when you can easily rub off the skins—the blanching process. Have them then put in the refrigerator. If spread out one by one, as they easily can be by passing the hand over them, and the dish set flat upon the ice, they will be cool enough presently to cut into long narrow strips with a sharp knife, after which they are best sent out to the kitchen and put into the oven for a very few minutes to dry off well.

As soon as your almonds are thus made ready, put into your saucepan a quarter of a pound or four heaping tablespoonfuls of sugar—not the confectioner's fine sugar, but the common white granulated—with one dessert spoonful of water only, and stir it till it is quite melted some one else will in the mean time have buttered for you a very shallow pan or other tin dish. The moment that your sugar is thoroughly melted, and before it has a chance to boil, throw in your almonds, continue to stir for about a minute, and then pour one and put on the cool window ledge to "set," and you will have a delicate nougat, good enough for any sweet tooth.

This may be varied by using any nuts attainable, always excepting peanuts, which vulgarize and injure the flavor of any candy, spreading them out over the bottom of tho buttered pan, and putting four tablespoonfuls of water to the same amount of sugar as before, bringing it not only to the melting but to the boiling point, and pouring it out evenly over the nuts.

Another and at once richer and more 'delicate sort can be made with a little more trouble by powdering and sifting an ounce of gum arabic, and setting it away -for half an hour in f»ur tablespoonfuls^ water, and then gradually hedt it by seting it inside a larger vessel of boiling water till the gum dissolves. At this, strain the result through a fine wire sieve upon three very heaping tablespoonfuls, or five level ones, of confectioner's sugar, arid stir it over the lire till it turns white and thick like a laundress's starch when she pours on boiling water.

While you are stirring this, which should be during a good half hour, or a little more, let some one else beat up about half the white of an egg (it increases the pleasure if the work be divided among several), adding to it at the last, instant half a teaspoonful of vanilla, or as much rose water, if preferred, and stir this in just as the sugar and gum arabic are taken from the fire, and then add at once a quarter of a pound-of already blanched and minced sweet almonds, with two or three bitter ones to heighten the flavor. Let whatever dish you pour it into then be well floured with fine sifted flour, with corn starch, or maizena, or arrowroot, as cooks flour their biscuit pans, and set it away to cool. —Harper's Bazar.

Paper Rack.

A novel and ornamental rack to hang on tho wall to hold papers or letters is made of two fans, one considerably larger than the other. They are both opened wide, and the smaller one placed against the larger so that the lower portions of both fans are even. Ribbon is then drawn through the sticks of both, fastening them together. Bows of ribbons are placed on each side of the sticks, the end of the ribbon being tipped with gilded button balls,

A large bow with long ends also tipped with the balls is placed on the handles where they join, forming a handsomfe^ finish. The upper portion of the small fan is fastened to the larger one at each side and the fastenings concealed by ball tipped bows. The rack is suspended by ribbon strings fastened at the sides of the fans and tied in the middle. The fans are very pretty when of contrasting colors, and the rack can be made very elaborate or inexpensive, according to the taste and means of the maker.—Cor. New York Press.

Remedies for Burns.

It is essential in case of a burn to exclude the air, especially if the skin 'is broken. A paste made of soot, common baking soda, or even flour, is valuable in case there is an abrasion of the skin. In case the skin is broken the white of an egg is about as valuable as anything likely to be at hand. Wrap up the injured part in soft linen cloth, such as should always be kept in a roll in the kitchen drawer, where it will be convenient in case of accident. A bottle, in which there are equal parts of lime water and sweet oil, stirred or shaken to a cream, ought also to be kept in readings to wet the linen bandage.—-Herald of Health.

DISLIKES HOUSEWORK

YOUNG GIRL WHO PREFERS TO READ AND IMPROVE HERSELF.

Some Considerations Upon the Attitude of the Educated Young Woman of Today Toward Work to Be Done In the

House—Menial Duties Dignified.

The following letter has been received at this office: "I wish to state my case to you. Two years ago I was graduated at a school for girls.1® Since that timeibave lived at home with my parents. I like to read and study, but my mother thinks I should keep myself busy for the greater part of the day about housework and sewing. Now, I do not like housework and I do like to study, and furthermore, it seems to me that

I

should be doing wrong to give so much time to housework when I might be improving myself. Now will you tell me candidly just what you think about it, and oblige yours truly, OLIVE."

Just what we think about what, Olive? You should be a little more definite in stating your needs in a case so desperate as this appears to be. What do we think about your having to do housework when you would prefer to study? We think your preference is not first to be consulted. The need for vour doing it is the first question to be answered, and you should have given us some indication of this.

A GRAVE PROBLEM.

But let us begin at the beginning. The problem you state is a grave one, and one that is every now and then coming up to be decided. With women entering into the broad fields of the higher education and sipping the sweets of a constantly widening culture, while the sphere specially designated as "woman's" still claims so much of their thought and attention, it is pertinent to ask and to discuss what shall be the attitude of the educated young woman of today toward the undignified and unpleasant details of housework.

The pervading opinion in the minds of men—yes and of women, too—in regard to these things is that the instinct for household duties is innate in the truly womanly heart. This much is true: The love of home and family is inborn in the heart of every woman. Household duties she tolerates because she loves these others. But no woman feels a hidden longing for the companionship of pots and pons, or feels her whole soul go out in yearning toward 3auces and salads, or recognizes the cooking range as next of kin. No woman loves these things. Nor should she. That she does them is of grace and not of nature.

This proposition may be laid down at the outset as broad enough to cover all the ground. A woman ought to do just as much of the housework in a house as actual necessity lays upon her in securing the comfort and welfare of the home. To do less than this is unworthy to do more, merely for the sake of work, is undignified. And here is where you failed to be explicit., Olive. How necessary is it that this work should be done by the women members of your family? If your father is able to supply the means wherewith strong hands that have no other accomplishment may be secured to do this work for you, aud if you should then elect to be your own hewer of wood and drawer of water, you would be lacking in a proper sense of personal dignity and of the fitness of things. You could, as you suggest, use your time to much better advantage. HI. "-GIRLS, don't mount too- hiqh.^^«

But on the other hand, don't mount too high horse, Olive. Don't feel too keenly the value of your time and the duty of improving yourself. Just try to be a wise, healthy minded, sensible girl, and the self improvement may be taken for granted. It appears altogether probable from your letter that there is some necessity for your doing your share of the household work. If it, be so, if in any way the burden of home cares is the heavier for your mother or for others because of your withdrawal from them, then you ought to be ashamed -f yourself if you are unwilling to drop book or essay or brush and bare your own young strong arm and bring your own active brain to the rescue.

The dignity is in the worker, not in the wort and if you meet the dullest, meanest, most uncongenial detail of household life bravely and cheerfully, and discharge it just as well as you possibly can, you will find the whole round of menial duties becoming dignified and ennobled. So they will minister quite as much to your happiness and to the improvement of your mind and to your spiritual growth as the best books you can read in the greatest numbers.—-New York Evening Sun.

College Girls.

The fact that the number of Wellesley and Harvard annex graduates front Boston is much smaller than one would naturally suppose it to be recalls the remark made not long ago by a woman much interested in the education of girls belonging to fashionable society. "A society girl," this lady said, "loses caste by going to college." There can be but little doubt that the daughters of the four hundred do not go to college. Advanced education is & badge of the caste to which they belong. There Is a present analogy which touches this case. Philipa Fawcett could not be a wrangler—the law of the university was against that—and so her genius created for her a grade higher still, and she came out of the contest "alwve senior wrangler." The society girl may lose her caste by going to college, but she gets into a caste above the caste.—Boston Transcript.

Women'i Head Dress.

Little women should wear small hats and simple hair dress. One often hears a tall woman say when trying on a large hat: "Oh, I could not think of wearing this hat why, it adds at least six inches to my height, and I think I am tall enough now." And she forthwith proceeds to buy a little bit of a hat scarcely distinguishable from her Psyche knot. But if she wore a large hat the head would appear larger and in better. proportion to the body.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

It is cruel to put black stockings that crock on little children and then use a stiff flesh brush or sapolio to remove the dye from the tender feet and limbs. If mothers cannot afford to pay an exorbitant price, by the way, for fast dye black hosiery, ia the name of humanity let them wear brown, gray or even glaring white.

Why they Are Called Alligator Pears. Did von ever see an alligator pear? If not, take a look at the first uncouth object on a fruit stand, and you will strike it dead sure.

They weigh about a pound apiece, and when unripe are as green as the man who thinks he cau be elected to congress, and when ripe are about the color of a second hand mahogany bedstead with pleuty of varnish sprinkled over it.

They derive their name from the fact that alligators are very fond of them, and get a pleutiful supply by standing on their heads and knocking the fruit off the limbs of the tree with their tails .--Florida TimesUnion.

Dry Lubricants.

The use of dry lubricants for bearings in places where oils and grease are objectionable, or where contact with fire may occur, is becoming better understood, and graphite In one form or another is now in general use. It has been employed on various kinds of machinery with uniform success. Mica also, in a dry, pulverized state, has given satisfactory results in many cases. Self lubricating bearing, consisting of metal shells filled with compounds of graphite or mica, have also been operated with complete satisfaction.—New Orleans Picayune.

Well Salted.

Summer Girl—That Mr. De Salti doesn't talk about anything but the sea, and he uses so many sailor terms that I can't understand half he says. Does he own a ship?

Landsman—No, but he has a friend who owns a cat boat.—Good News.

He Did Not Call.

The man who tried Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy, and was sure of the $500 reward offered by the proprietors for an incurable case, never called for his money. Why not? O, because he got cured! He was sure of two things: (1) That his catarrh could not be cured. (2) That he would have that $500. He is now sure of one thing, and that is, that his catarrh is gone completely. So he is out |500, of course. The makers of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy have faith in their ability to cure the worst cases of Nasal Catarrh, no matter of how long standing, and attest their faith by their standing reward of $500 offered for many years past, for an incurable case of this loathsome and dangerous disease. The Remedy is sold by druggists, at only 50 cents. Mild, soothing, cleansing, deodorising, antiseptic, and healing.

Pronounced Hopeless, Yet Saved. iYom a letter written by Mrs. Ada E. Hurd of Groton, S. D., we quote: "Was taken with a bad cold, which settled on my Lungs, cough set in and finally terminated in Consumption. Four doctors gave me up saying I could live but short time. I gave myself up to my Saviour, determined if 1 could not stay with my friends on earth, I would meet my absent ones above. My husband was advised to get Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds. I tive it a trial, took in all eight bottles has cured me and thank God I am now a well and hearty woman. Trial bottles 10 cents at J. & C. Baur's drug store. 4

Catarrh In Colorado.

I used Ely's Cream Balm for dry catarrh. It proved a cure.—B. F. M. Weeks, Denver. Ely's Cream Balm is especially adapted as a remedy for catarrh which is aggravated by alkaline dust and dry winds.—W. A. Hover, Druggist, Denver.

I can recommend Ely's Cream Balm to all sufferers^ from dry catarrh from personal experience.—Michael Herr, Pharmacist, Denver.
