A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

Social Circle.

Men lflbor undorthe egotistical idea that they are aw tally far Kcelng and bright and that «Jrl can possibly hoodwink them, Jor they know all 6f their tricks. Thoy settle things In their own mind and to convince thorn that they still have a little to learn, 1B an impossibility. They put their briarY/ocW betwuon their lips and as they sit and wit|h the tmioko float out Into nothingness, tb*iy tatk phllfisophlcally, and say: "Women are deep whemers, and charming so long as ywo tot them think we believe all they toll \is, but wo arc not really so easily taken In,

boy, oh, no!" Then one of these same \eti fatyitn love with one of these charmeret^nro'ft, and behold I ho has told her indsh^Uas snld yes. He kisses her In his \icy. nniden, chilling as a Texas jhornV'•frlkes him. "You, you have klssMl finy ono else, have you dear?

Jealously fearfully. (That, I have th'/e HtutlKlles from about a dozen io Kfvo been engaged, every ono of mo to at Ir/st once, Is the flrat question of every engagwl man). Then sh-e looks up reprOitchfuUy. her eyes grow sort and misty wltlvtea^s that threaten to well over, she drWsbttO^JftUHleandinagasplng, ohoklng-tVlr.h-^crt»iT«irt of #tyie, cries: "How can you bo so cruel? Of course not! -You are the only one!" Jt makes him feel like a great suspicious brute, nud he believes her—she Man excnptlou, you know, so different from olherglrls. It Isamuslng, this farsightedness Of 1110)1.

The fashion which announces an engagement ono week and Issues Invitations for tU® wedding the uextls notahvays tho safest ami best plau after all even though It has been reoognlxed by tho leaders In tho gay world and Is therefore followed by the hosts of Imitators every road to follow In the footsteps of the favorites of fortune. It may be old Jashlotted to argue In favor «f at least a twelve-months' engagement, yet It Is fur maw practical tlsan tho short time that is uowconxlfloroiHo be the correct thing. How can .a couple understand each others' tastes and temper in a.forthight or a month? What tlrae have they to study themselvessaud dls cover before It Is too late that they are not sult«dto each other and If the engagement •were to-end In marriage dire unhapplness would bo the result? How can a woman accumulate all tho hundred and one little pretty things that do *0 much toward making home lovely and which need hours of bard work to prepare, tf slw steps from the school room to the altar with only along enough Interval between to get her trousseau ready? The short -engagement Is not to be commended, neither Is lis opposite, the long weary yoarsof waiting, one whit better, but the happy moan, the year of acquaintanceship, Is trertanly little enough time for that blissful jerlod of happluess that Is never again duplicated.

Talk of gentletiKsa's gentlemen!"exclaimed a lively lady, wbo was disease! ug the domestic question the other day, ihey art* nothing to the ladles' ladles! They are the true aristocrats, and we are ouly shams. If tbey want to go to Europe, they go If they meed a ir«t, they take It and only yesterday my housemaid told me that she felt that she ought to go to Chleago. 11 'behoved her,* as six*1 expressed It, 'lo see the big show.' Now I might feel It 'behoved' me too, but wouldn't do any good. I can't afford to go, aud that Is all there Is about It, and here Is Janecalmly making her plans to go as housemaid to one of the big new hotel** and she does not seem lo have the slightest difficulty in arranging It to her taste. Th© cook Informs me that she 1« going over to the 'ould country to paid the summer with her mother. would tike t« go to Earope too, bat I might well wish to go to the moon. I would dearly love to stop keeping house and take gt**i long rest but everything would go to sixes and «v»us If 1 did but our kitchen ladles seem to be able to gratify every passing f*ney, and to take a change whenever they d«*.tre todo sc." ________

Many are aware that some -fashionable ladle* have wooden figurantes made like themselves at the dressmaker's upon which dresses can be fitted and draped. Something newer still are dolls, veritable dolls with movable head, arms, etc., made on the scale of dimensions of the belle or matron. With this at hand she goes to a pattern establishment which makes a specialty of this thing and has a suit cut out and made of tissue paper and fitted on the doll, Tho shape, style and color she desires are all there. Then, If it suits her she takes it to the djessmaker and has It made according to the doll pattern. Sometimes a fine colored fashion plate Is taken to the pattern maker with directions to reproduce it on tho doll. With perhaps some change a modification to suit tho wearer's complexion or figure, the costume is tne» ••built'' by the dressmaker.
