Within n month changes much Hko the
panic of stagecoach will have taken
place In Washington. The doslrablo
furnished houses that have always had
olHtlal tenants will have changed oc-
ctipanti all around , and an entirely now
not of faecs will bo Been at the White
lioino and the departments. DllTcrent
liaim s will lo | uppermost in conversation ,
and differentpcnplu , feul how pleasant It
In to ] lvo for one's country in high places ,
bitlety's carriages will stand l > e-
fora other doorways , and other
vestibules will hold whirling
BIIOW storms of the tissue paper Hakes
dropped from the countless visiting
cards. The appointment of Judge
Gresham as secretary of state , says
Harper's Bazar , does not promise partic
ularly gay winters to tlio diplomatic
cjrps and their immediate sot thereby.
While a member of President Arthur's
cabinet the Gresham family cared little
for the pleasures and treadmill of
society. Airs. Gresham'sdelicate health
was a bar to her undertaking anything
beyond the necessary routine of after
noons at home and the young people of
the family were by no means dazzled
with Washington's gaycties. As
the cabinet circle is expected to bo led
by and take its tone from the family of
the secretary of state , there is as much
surmise as to the social leadership in
the immediate administration circle ,
tlio .successor of Mrs. Whitney , as if the
occtlpant of that first olllco had not been
named. The wisest forecasters believe
that the scepter of social power during
the next four years will be wielded by
Mrs , Brice. During this winter their
house has Iwen the first establishment
socially among those of their political
faith. Tin Ir hospitality has not by any
menus been so crude as to bo limited
to tho-.o of the same political creed ,
and their series of dinners has
gathered all that was best and most emi
nent in the broad social life of the capi
tal. Unless the now cabinet contains
some social light and genius heretofore
tmmentioned , the family of the Ohio sen
ator will plainly lead. Their ambition
to do so is evident , and their campaigns
of these two seasons show social genius
of the first order , and methods that can
not fail to secure their end. Mrs. Brice
is alreadv here and lias her homo estab
lished. The now cabinet families can do
nothing before next winter , and time
only strengthens a good leader's hold.
The maidens of Vienna have started a
spinster club , with the object , ns they
avow , of bringing about the speedy and
happy marriage of its members. Bach
elors of guaranteed respectability desir
ous of wcd < ml bliss are to be registered ,
introduced to available parties , and a
record will bo kept of the various ex-
I collent qualifications of mutual mem
bers of both sexes. All of 'which
I * about as Utopian and prac-
I tlcal as an association of spln-
[ etors would arrange it. In the lirst
r place , says the Now York Sun , only the
i most utterly abject of maids , unwed , as
[ i forlorn as a rubber shoo run down at the
I heel , as devoid of hope and promise as a
I republican postmaster , would over con-
I Bent to bo enrolled among the members
I of this bocioty with the laudable aim.
I And after they have organized what are
I they goitur to do about it ? How will the
I blind lead tlio blind ? How Is ono spin-
I Btor to tell another how to bring Barkis
I to the proper state of willingness ? A
10-year-old girl in her bridal veil , with
K the bright now ring under her wedding
glove , knows more about the philosophy
of getting a husband than the whole
body politic of worthy and intellectual
Upinstorhood. Another point : Who over
know a man to want what ho could have
V is well as not ? It is ever the bud on the
topmost limb , not the flower on the lower
branch , that the man risks his lifo for.
If Helen of Troy and Cleopatra of Egypt
had united with any syndicate of maidens
forlorn avowing their willingness to
enter the marriage state , the Iliad would
> never have been written , Mark Antony
m might have posed as a model of
' marital fidelity. The only hope for the
I Vienna sisterhood is that they will so-
I euro the services of some attractive
I widow in second mourning , some beauti-
f ful and stately wife unappreciated by
I her husband , to teach them the mys-
I lories of the art of snaring hearts. If
If the members do not disband tlio society
Li promptly , they will oblige each of its
| l members to swear a deep and deadly oath
wrnever to marry at all. This will not bo n
Re secret oath ; it will bo inscribed on the
$ ' badges of the club , and largo fines will
[ ; 1)0 ) Imposed if the badge is not worn con-
' ' bluntly. If some unwary man does not
I * , rise at this fly , the Viennese maidens
It might as well took the consolations of
' religion , knowing that because of their
I worth and excellence they are sot apart
I for something moro noble than the marI -
I riago state. The average husband
I couldn't appreciate them.

There ought to bo a law passed to prevent -
[ , vent women from trying to make arm-
| ( -111111-8 out of old barrels , foot stools
[ from starch boxes and bookcases out of
shoo boxes and packing cases. It IB
really a terrible habit to form , according
to Jenness Miller. The furniture is novel-
satisfactory or strong. Tlio materials
used in covering are entirely inadequate
or fully as expensive as if proper
articles had been bought hi the begin
ning , and there is a liomo-made , make
shift air about It that is always horrible.
I have felt like tearing my fiitir many a
( .1 . time on entering a friend's room and
I seeing her dressing table sot olT in the
remains of a last miminor'n frock.
Reams of paper have boon covered
with directions how to make , for in
stance. , a drcsning table out of a box to
economize space. Did you over BOO one
finished thut did not take up lota moro
room than a real one. In the mime of
common sense , when you can buy a nice
little straight chair for 80 cents and ft
rocker for $1.25 , what is the u o of break
ing one's linger nails and spoiling the
temper in worrying over old boxes.
There are so many bits of homo carpen
try that are pretty and alfeotuul that It
seems a pity not to go in for them and
Jet the mistaken alono.
If you want a book-shelf , got little
Iron brackets from the hardware man or
r < ' nmko wooden ones at homo. Nail ( irmly
to the wall and lay on your shelves. I
don't see why jwoplo should want to hide
their books , but If you have a curtain
let It run on a little rod or it cord , so
that all parts of thu shelves can bo
reached easily. Don't , as you love votir
Looks , box-plait the curtains nnd secure
them with brass-headed taeks. That
makes it so hard to get at the volumes
that you will boon leave thorn alono.

Twenty years ago Miss Emily Page
von Schonbcrg of Philadelphia was re
puted the handsomest young lady In
.America , aud a ho was ulbo exceedingly
rich. Wlion flho married C'olonol
Iltighc-vIIallett , u handsome English
ofllcor of the highest wx-lnl standing , '
society was in ruptures over the alTair ,
at It was sot down as n genuine love
matoh , with no fortune-hunt
ing motive behind it. But ,
as n final test of her lore , the
gallant and proud spirited Briton stipu
lated In an ante-nuptial agreement that
If she should over leave him "without
reasonable cause" a certain portion of
her fortune should lx > given to him. Ho
was to bo subsisted by her during their
married life , and in case ho made that
lifo unbearable to her she waste
to supply him with a life-long com
petence before she could IKS free. The
fortune-hunting Englishman , it Is al
leged , began very so m to make it im
possible for his i elf-respecting wife to
live with him. They separated throe
years ago. the wife leaving her husband
after an ugly scandal. Then Hughes-
Hallett pursued his \vifo with his prenuptial -
nuptial contract , claiming that her de
parture from his house was "without
reasonable enure.1' Ho brought
suit in Philadelphia for the share
of the estate which ho claimed under
the contract , but the supreme court has
dismissed the case , and he must pay the
costs. Mrs. Hughe.s-Hallott , nee von
Schonberg , Is added to the long list of
victims of European fortune-hunters.
She might have chosen a husband from
the very first ranks of sterling American
manhood , and been one of the proudest
and happiest wives of her native coun-
lry'
The tlmo has been until very recently
that risks on the lives of women were
never taken by certain companies dual-
Ing In life Insurance. And those that
did take such risks made the rates
nearly double those which were charged
to men , as they argued that women
were not as long-lived as men nnd there
fore not nearly as desirable subjects.
This notion , which for so long hindered
clenr-slghtcd women who wore nnxious
to provide for the future welfare of
their loved ones in this manner , has
now been done away with , says the
Philadelphia Times , and wo know of one
large corporation that has taken the
lead in this line and is most anxious to
secure just such sort of lifo insurance
and at the same rates as those that
apply to men.
This is only ns It should be , for women
are just as desirous of making some pro
vision for their loved ones in case of
their demise as the keenest business
man that over existed. Many n widow
loft with helpless little ones has been
haunted by the thought of their future ,
even though she were able to cope with
their present wants. Many a woman
on whom depends an invalid
brother or sister would feel
much happier if she knew that
she could by lifo insurance secure those
helpless ones from the bitterness of
poverty which her death would plunge
them into if such a precaution had not
been taken.
It is a stop in the right direction nnd
should have been taken long ugo , for
women have been proven to be as long-
lived ns men , and the company that
takes risks on their lives is doing some
thing not ono bit more hazardous then
when they so gladly rush in and insure
the lives of us many men as they can get.

Madame Carnet , the first lady of
Franco , Is a brunette , with dark blue
eyes , a pule complexion , delicately
molded features , t and hair as black and
glossy ns black satin , writes Lucy Ham
ilton Hooper in n delightful sketch , with
portrait , of the homo life and personal
ity of the wife of the president of the
French republic in the March Ladies'
Homo Journal. Her expression is nt
once intellectual and charming.
Outside her official duties , which
are ninny. Madame Curaot leads
n very quiet and domestic life. She
rises at 8 o'clock , and her first breakfast ,
consisting of a cup of colTeo and a roll , is
served to her in her dressing room. Un
til 10 o'clock she occupies herself with
her private correspondence , which nl-
wuys includes n letter to ono or the other
of her children , only her youngest son ,
Francois , who is at school in Purls ,
being at homo. At 10 o'clock she
joins the president in his library , and
aids him in exnmining the voluminous
mass of letters which arrive daily at the
Elysee. Her thorough knowledge of
modern languages , and her intelligence
nnd unfailing good sense make of her a
valuable nssistnnt. The second brenk-
nst , or lunch , Is served at
j o'clock in the breakfast-
room of the palace and is
usually a very simple repast. Guests are
seldom invited to luncheon at the Elyseo ,
as both the president und his wife prefer
entertninlng their friends nt dinner.
Lunch once concluded , Mudumo Cnrnot ,
on the days of state dinner parties or
balls , gives audience to her chief cook.
Then she drives outoither to accompany
her husband to the opening of
an exhibition or the inaugura
tion of some charitable institu
tion , or to some other official
function. The ordering and superin
tending of her toilotts absorbs a good
deal of her time , and is really ono of her
officials duties the dress of the wife of
the ruler of the btato exercising a wide
spread influence over the commercial in
terests of Franco. Then she is inter
ested in a number of charities , and drops
in from time to time to see how her pro
teges are progressing

Concerning crinoline the following ex
tract from the Dundee , Scotland , Adver
tiser , January' 5 , 1809. has been un
earthed : Mr. Isaac BiekerstalTe , censor
of Great Britain , sitting in the court of
judicature , had crinoline brought in and
hoisted by a pulley to the roof of
the hall , whore It formed a very
splendid nnd nmplo canopy over
our heads , and covered the whole
court of judicature with a kind of silken
rotunda in its form not unlike the
cupola of Saint Paul's. On Inquiring
for the person belonging to the petti
coat , Mr. BlekerstalTo , to his grent sur
prise , was directed to a very pretty
young damsel. "My pretty maid , " ho
said , "do you own yourself to have boon
the inhabitant of the garment before
us ? " The young lady who wore
this hoop confessed that she did not
Hko it , und that she kept out of it us long
ns she could nnd till she began to appear
little in the eyes of all her acquaintances ,
nnd said she would bo very glnd to see
nn example made of it. History does
not go on to relate in what manner the
hoop was censured , but the young lady ,
for her modesty and amiability , and in
somewhat for her good looks , only re
ceived great praise.
Our British brother really begins to
find us out , says Harper's Bu/.iir. In nn
nrtlclo on the American child , which
ono of him who has been hero contributes
to the London Queen , lie savs of the
American mother : "Sho is , if possible ,
too unselfish , and the consequence is that
the child Is apt to become exacting. But
it is precisely this peculiar trait that
runs through all American society
It Is characteristic of men no less
than of women. Husbands slave for
their wives , oven In the most heated
days of summer , while their wives in
their turn lavish all their thought and
care upon the little ones. " Wo Ameri
cans have known these many years that
if wo had a fault it was that we were
too unselfish , but wo never expected our
transatlantic contemporaries to impute
it to us. But this brother Is exception
ally dulcet , since ho even declares that
our children "aro , ns a rule , peed , sensible
companionable little creatures , and
the reports so often circulated as to their
disagreeable forwardness are positively
llbefous. "
*
Just now , when a movement Is being
made to try nnd crush the mnnla for
tight lacing , one cannot help thinking ,
says Jonness Miller , of the more exag
gerated form of cruelty which the
Chinese practice viz. , the compressing
of the feet of fomnle children of the
better classes. Unlike tight lacing ,
which is , alas ! on the increase , the
fashion of strapping up the feet
In China is decidedly lessening ,
though so slowly that one can
not help hoping that some ono will try if
law cannot be brought to the assistance
of the helpless llttlo children. People
talk of the yielding character of young
bones or the pliability of baby sinews ,
but no ono who has listened to the cries
of a little girl undergoing the torturing
process will over believe that the pain
Is other than excruciating. The
walls are the walls of agony , the
shrieks of a child absolutely wild with
suffering , which end when the ligntures
are loosened In the shocking succession
of breathless screams , gradually djing
down to long drawn nebs of exhaustion
and misery. Such are the mothers and
fathers who willingly torture their little
ones thus for a mere freak of fashion ,
and if they do not realize their own
cruelty it is high time that the strong
arm of the law made them do so.

The table should bo a cabinet council
board , as well ns n pluco to cat. Hero
the father and mother meet with all
the family , ns thov seldom meet nt any
other time. With most it is their only
tlmo for sitting down together. Why
should not the head of the family nt this
time consider family matters and dis
cuss affairs of common interest ? Is
there any reason why he should hold to
himself all the bus-lness affairs that all
are equally dependent upon and inter
ested in , and she , the mother , take no
council or get none , concerning domes-
tie affairs ? I would advocate a formal
counsel once n dny , when each ono shall
ask advice of the other , and each child ,
in an orderly way , shall state his
troubles nnd his problems. In such n
way our fnmilies may cultivate unity of
feeling and co-operation.

Ono of the Easter brides is already
planning her wedding nnd the gifts she
will give tier bridesmaids. The wedding
is to bo a mignonette affair , mid the
maids will all went1 green gowns , with
low necks nnd short sleeves , nnd carry
huge bouquets of mignonette and roses.
Their hats wi ! 1 bo of pink straw , trimmed
with mignonette. The bride will hnvo n
sprig or two of mignonette in her bridal
bouquet. The mnid of honor will wear
pink , trimmed with mignonette , and
wear n wreath of the dainty little flowers
on her brown curls. Her bouquet will
bo entirely in mignonette. The gifts
for the bridesmaids are to bo emernld
hearts , surrounded with diamonds. The
bridesmaids will bo ten in number nnd
the wedding , of course , will be n very
swell affair.
t
Shirt waists and blouses promise to bo
oven moro popular than over during the
coining senson. The principal change
in them for the new season Is the use of
n full frill , wide around the shoulders
and graduated in width to the waist.
This gives the effect of bretellos.
Heavy cotton cheviots nnd linens will be
moro used for these shirts than lighter
goods. The silk shirt waists seem to
retain their place. The French coutu-
riores have adopted the shirt waist idea
in many of their rich costumes of wool
with silk or velvet. Blouses of plnid or
rainbow velvet continue to bo shown
with many French costumes where the
skirt and remainder of the dress are of
shaggy wool or camel's hair.
Murmurs of the Model.
Man sneers at woman for following
the fashion , and then goes and finds
fnult with his tnilor for not putting but
tons on the coat tails of his latest suit.
Bolts and girdles are so popular that
oven ladies tailors make use of them to
finish round waists , and to cross vests ,
or waistcoats , as they more frequently
call them.
The skirt portions of all the now
spring jackets are much widened at the
back , nnd slightly on the sides , to ndmit
of their fulling easily over the enlarged
dress skirts.
So long as the dear girls can point to
the fact that corsets have been found
upon the waists of Egyptian mummies
it is of little use to talk to them about
the evils of tight lacing.
Some of the new gloves show glaring
transgressions of conventional idens
nnd illustrate the disregard which
fashion lias for anything which savors of
the old-time virtue of economy.
Russian whip cords , vigogne , tweed ,
serge , camel's hair , silk and wool benga-
llnes , tricotsthe so-called Scotch plaids ,
and , nbove all , goods in corded and
changeable effects will bo fashionable
for street wear.
Do you know the value of sunshine ?
Then lot it into your houses. What's
that about fading the carpets and furni
ture ? Well , let them fade ! You can
replace them , but you cannot replace
your faded health.
The shoulder-seam having boon so
much lengthened , it follows that sloping
shoulders will once again nss-ort their
claims to recognition , for the Second
Empire bodice is hardly compatible with
the square-shouldered ideal.
The new dress skirts measure from
four to six yards in width around the
bottom nnd the woman who decides upon
the skirt with the latter measurement
must also consent to wear Its Inevitable
accompaniment the odious hoop-skirt.
Seventy-one Now Orleans women have
bound themselves in the sum of $2 each

The ulster of other days has multiplied
its simple effects and adornings and now
it appears with a series of shoulder
capes , trimmed on their edges , a jaunty
collar , fancy sleeves and silver nnd
enamel buttons in place of the plain bone
or bronze ones.
Very pretty surahs , bongnlines nnd
morveilloux satins , dotted with silk of a
contrasting color , nro made up into
dressy toilets that have a rather full
medium-length skirt and low-cut cor
selet , with gimpe and balloon sleeves of
plain silk the color of the dot.
Round waists appear upon nearly
every other model sent from Paris.
These are either bolted in clot-oly or
they curve with the taper of the waists
to a sharp point. The f-onts open on n
plastron or vest with extravagantly
wide velvet rovers beyond , some of.
which seem to spread into folds and lose
themselves in the elaborate puffings on
the sleeves.
Oriental red Is the
name given to anew

that the neutral-toned typo could jwssl-
bly select. The color is so subdued that
it is not at nil conspicuous.

The popularity of capes , single , double

minish. It is likely that they will con
tinue In favor for a long time , or as long

the capo form is much moro accommo

whoso smaller , heavier sleeves invaria

The fancy for buttons with odd devices
is revived for handsome gowns , espe
cially those with Directolro coats and
waistcoats. These vary from patterns
of cut metal , matching gold , silver and

as costly as real gems. Some are ex
ceedingly elegant and artistic in sets
both largo and 8inallmado of goldsilver
and other genuine metals , and tinted in
rich colorings of vines in relief or sot

Dress designers are making strong at
tempts to bring the Empire styles of
dress into still more general vogue dur
ing this and the summer season. The
new models which they have sent forth
are certainly very attractive , and ns
during the autumn and winter they
found u certain following , so also will
they in the months to come : but they
will never prove generally popular. The
Empire gown is for the few , and not for
the majority.
The moment for nourishing the bud

predicted is that it Is to be a rainbow-
lined season. Iridescent effects in
spangles , in many lined beads , in gold
and silver gau/c , in gleaming beetles , in
metallic blue and green wings are ac
cumulating with a significance that
loaves no doubt. There is an epidemic
of beads Imitating pearls embroidering
