BAKER, Sheriff. D Isa 4tm taff e of Rowff. As the girl who paints bares nothing .or the ethical argument against rouge ind is not to be intimidated on the score of health, she can be impressed only by showing np. the disadvantages of rouge as a beautifier, and certainly it has most glowing disadvantages. What, for in stance, could be more undesirable than to have a color which does not come and go unless npon withdrawal to the boudoir i or a plunge in the surf? The imdsummer maiden rarely weeps in public, so that the question of fast color is not to he considered on that score, but assuredly the possessor of a hand painted cheek must be haunted by the dread that something will happen to it, confronted as it must be by the perils of perspiration or weather. It must be like fearing that one's wig will come off in , company. But.the inability to regulate is the most serious difficulty in the case. There are times when every cheek should blush, upon short notice. How embarrassing it must be to fall away in a dead faint, with cheeks blush ing like a peony and betokening the bloom of health ! And as to painting the lips, -which is also affected at this time, why that is simply preposterous. ' 'Paint" on the midsummer maiden's lips! Think of it ! But perhaps she knows the weak ness of men when they see "paint" to touch it and ascertain if it is dry. South ern Pleasure Seeker. Senator Stanford and TVomanJcind. 4 Senator Stanford attestedin two noble instances the high regard in which he held womankind. His respect for wom an in general he recorded by giving her equal rights with men in Stanford uni versity. His regard for her in particular he showed by his will, in which the great bulk of his fortune was left absolutely to his wife. A great many people are in terestedsome of them vitally to see whether these two important actions will work together for good. Praetically Mr. Stanford bequeathed Stanford uni versity to his wife. It i9 true ho left the university about f3.500.000, but that is far from being a large enough sum to keep the institution running on the scale on which it is con ducted now. Happily Mrs. Stanford's interest in it has always been quite as lively as her husband's. Yet it has happened before now that the man and wife who have been one so long as both have lived have turned out to be a different one after tho man has died. Harper's Weekly. The Dress of British Dame. The average British dame or damsel cares far too little for the fit of her gar ments. She does not seem to understand the graceful lines of a well cut corsage; still less the necessity of having those lines follow those of her figure. It is not necessary that a dress should fit tightly to fit well, but when it bulges at the back and wrinkles under the arms, is too short waisted in one place and too long waisted in another, the effect, even of a gown in satin or of velvet, is utterly disastrous. But its English wearer dons it and is con tent therewith. Then, too, in regard to the latest fash ions, the English woman either refuses to adopt them at all or else so exaggerates them, that she out-Herods Herod. I met only a few weeks ago two charming Eng lish ladies at a formal dinner party. Their dresseCwere of very handsome ma terial and perfectly fresh, but they were both made with flat, tight fitting, short sleeves that are as much out of fashion as are green barege veils. Lucy Hooper in Home Journal. Women In Men's Clothes. The two women in Yates county who wrote to Governor Flower for permis sion to wear trousers in order to facili tate their farm work only succeeded in puzzling the chief executive and his clerks and putting the law officers of the state to some trouble in studying over the code. Assistant District Attorney Cohn says the laws of this state on the subject are that persons are forbidden disguising themselves or masquerading in public, but it would be a sad twisting of the statutes that sought to forbid a woman from the orderly wearing of any decent costume that seemed best to her. But other states are not so liberal and en lightened. Some commonwealths deny absolutely this much to be desired priv ilege to the sex. Missouri compromises. In that state a written permission from- the governor entitles a woman to wear with impunity a man's dress outside of cities of 10,000 inhabitants or over. Al bany Argus. Not Afraid of "Wettine, lint of Freckles. As wo were threading our way among the dense cluster of islands near Gana noque a canoe shot out into view. A young man in a bathing rig was pad dling, and in the stern .sat a young lady attired in a fashionable summer suit, with a red parasol over her head. They paddled diiectly toward us with the greatest recklessness, and all on board our crowded boat were greatly alarmed and rushed to the side nearest the canoeist with the certain expectation of witness ing a dire catastrophe. As soon as the steamer swells struck the canoe she went bottom side up, and both occupants dis appeared. A cry of horror went up from all on board the boat, which was in a moment after changed to one of aston ishment and shouts of laughter as the young man and maiden reappeared he pushing his boat toward shore and she complacently treading water with para sol over her head to keep off the sun.

In. WJ TTm Ceadeaut, the Daaclag Why Joined the Salvation Army Dressmaking Fad In Land Hairdresser 311m Hill Complain. It is hard to imagine anything more idle or insufferably stupid than the sun nier life of the average woman boarder. One day's programme from Jum until October varies little from another. v After breakfast all gather on the piazsa to "ill play their fresh, crisp morning cambrics, when they discuss the chances of a hot day, a cool day, a rainy or sunny one. The nervous and timid ones describe the. agony they endured during last night's thunderstorm, and the invalids expatiate on their Bufferings. Finally each, settles down to her novel or piece of fancy work. Conversation goes on in a jerky, discon certed way, which is neither entertain ing nor highly instructive. There may be one solitary man among ten women, a generous proportion, according to all reports this summer. Each one is afraid of saying or doing anything unconventional, and the more high toned the resort the more each one stifles herself. What a dreadful thing it would be to make an undesirable ac quaintance! Who is Mrs. Sanger, and what is her husband's business? Did you1 hear on what street Mrs. Phillips lfosjft and so on. The same excruciatuglyex elusive manners are put oh as in tb co teries during, the winter, and all -this sham in face of the grandest scenery. beside the ocean, the forests or the mountains. What a mockery seem an the vain little airs of the younger women and the patronizing schemes of the older ones! With a few exceptions the majority of these city bred, creatures would be just as near to nature's heart back in their city drawing rooms. To be sure they know how to rave over a pretty dolLdr a Deautirui sunset; tiiey can utter neat phrases about the moonlight shining through the "murmuring pines and hem locks," but they are insensible to conntry charms in any deep sense. They do not feel the words they speak, for here are the same rivalries, the same varieties. the same slavery to fashions. The unso phisticated girl, who thinks more of the row than the boating dress or of the ten nis than the suit she has on, is a rare bird. With the exception of the great centers, Bar Harbor and Newport, where dissipation is made a business, such mo notony reigns -that it is -a woader-her any one can endure it. Quiet reigns, interrupted only by the arrival of the mail or the passing a styl ish backboard. If the quiet brought peace and tranquillity, then the object of the summer s outing would be well ac complished, but it does not, for most of them are. restless, uneasy and vainly striving to have a good time. Complete rest they do not desire, for they are not tired as a rule they have done nothing to make them tired. Occasionally there is the artist who sketches in earnest, or the student who believes a change of oc cupation is the only rest needed. Even in a group busy with the needle not one is probably doing anj-thing sensible. Most likely one is crocheting a tidy, just as if the tidy had not been discarded long ago as a nuisance. Another is embroid ering pansies twice as big as the natural ones on a table scarf, and the third is working a flower design on a shoebag in pink and green that will fade-out colorless the first tiino washed. "What a queer woman that Mrs. 5p is! She says she makes most of hercnil dren's underclothing through the sum mer," as if it were almost a desecration of the long summerdays to accomplish in them any real work. Brooklyn Eagle. Women Condemn the Dancing. A report on the Midway plaisance was introduced into an unusually tame ses sion of the lady managers of the fair by a call for the report of a committee ap pointed to send out cards to the women in the Midway plaisance for the purpose of inviting them to the Woman's build ing. They were there to be shown its beauties by members of the board. The committee had made no report and had taken no action. But the women needed no report to set them talking. Isabella Beecher Hooker was the first to speak. She reviewed briefly the cliaracter of the famous street and said in conclusion: 'I think we had better invite that quar ter, not in bulk, as has been suggested, but very much in detail." "Do you mean to say," cried one of the women, jumping to her feet as Mrs. Hooker sat down, "that any woman has fallen so low that the board of lady man agers will not hold out a helping hand to her?" This brought Mrs. Barker to the plat form. "I will take second place to no one in missionary work," she said. "I went to the plaisance yesterday, impelled by a sense of duty. I never have been so grieved or shocked in my life as at the things I saw. I shall most certainly op pose inviting the women who perform in the theaters there to meet socially the members of this board. Thwy are, many of them, not representatives of foreign nations, but women of Chicago, chosen to act these disgusting parts. Can you endure the thought that your sons and daughters should witness such spectacles? I consider it our duty rather than to en tertain these people to enter a protest against them and demand that the places where they perform be closed. Appoint me as a committee, and Fwillplead with these women heartily at whatever cost, but I strongly object to the board, nut ting themselves on record as entertain ers of the women who so grossly violate the name by dancing in the Midway." liien jttrs. .Barker sat down and cned as if her heart would break. Mrs. Felton hastened to tender her support. "I want to say," she said, "thatl wentwith Mrs. Barker into these places, impelled, like her, by "a high sense of duty. Regarding our experiences! can only add that I had no idea we were living so near such demonstrations." Chicago Cor. New York World. Why She Joined the Salvation Army. A daughter of wealthy parents joining the Salvation Army and going to work in the slums! That is not simply an in cident; it is an event. It was not the re sult of caprice, but of conviction, for the young woman is not subject to fits of aberration, but is counted by those who know her as a remarkably level headed person. She made the reasons for her action' public at Prohibition park the other day; and if they do not appear to be entirely conclusive they are at least very" cogent. No one can read them without respect and possibly reverence for her motives. She said: "For 10 years my name was on a church roll, but long before that time had expired I decided that my Christian life was a dismal failure and a most un happy hypocrisy. The reason was that my religion was confined to certain times and places, while at other times I and in other places I deliberately did things upon which I could not ask God's blessing." She felt a responsibility for the crime 1 and sin ia the world, believed that the poor creatures who are generally shunned should be sought out, encouraged, helped to a better life; that she had no right to enjoy the luxuries of life while they were starving, and that if it was possible for her to save some drunken man or some fallen woman she had no business to ssdrk the duty, however disagreeable or irksome. So she gave np everything, and, unlike the rich young man whom the Saviour advised to do the same thing, she did not hesitate. You can find her nightly amid scenes of brawling in the low resorts o this city, an evangel, a minister of mercy, an snml of neace. New York Telegram. -j, c - 1 .Amateur Dressmaking Fad In London. The amount of amateur dressmaking goiag on at present is astonishing, and the fun there is over it'and interest taken in it' are most encouraging to beginners. Even sedate fathers of families are taken into the confidence of their girls about their' dressmaking doings, while brothers find nt a fruitful form of chaff, and though pretending to decry really ad mire the skill of then own and otner lei- lows' sisters. Girls who have no other occupation-in life find that dressmaking ... . . . . is a great interest; to inem ana an im mense saving in their dress allowance. They spend a f ew.hours with their scien tific dresscutting charts, the best and the most original of these being so far sim plified now as to be within easy compre-4 hension of the most ordinary intelligence, and straightway they fashion the bar gain of a pound or so into an up to date, smart and charming costume of which t'fTtfeel justly proud. 3r uress which was bought at a sale ffor 80 shillings, iBclasive of all -necessaries fotita build,, is to be worn next week. Itis of fancy cloth, the color willow leaf green. The skirt has a deep, frayed out ruche of shaded green silk around the hem. The bodice is a folded one of cream colored twill silk with lace insertion, and over it is a short bolero coat of green and cream brocade, out lined all round with small cream colored and green gimp ornaments. There is a sash of cream colored satin, which is tied at one side. It is to all intents and pur poses an 8 or 9 guinea gown and would easily pass for such if the wearer were not too proud of her share in its produc tion to allow it to do so. London Tele graph. A Clever Hairdresser. There is in Washington a professional hairdrvJsser who makes a comfortable liv ing while congress is in session. It is an easy matter to get the name of the poli tician from Miami, Ind., or Waterloo la.. A note is sent to his wife asking per mission to show her a more becoming glng her hair. Some com- aensivoihint is volunteered with s imiTJ compliment. The letter is marked "personal," a verbal answer is requested, and in eight out of ten attempts the New York hairdresser gets an answer to call. Oddly enough, it is the husband who urges her claim. He wants his wife to look like other women. At home she was all right, but in cosmopolitan life she is something of a fright, and although he despises himself for tho thought he is ashamed of her. In an hour's time the hairdresser puts a new face on the wom an from the woods. She may not use an inch of false hair, dug sne wieias a crimping iron in a way that takes years of farm life from her appearance. The troubled, shy face is not made ridiculous. Instead of curls the iron gray hair is cleaned, brushed until it is fluffy, crimped enough to rip ple and look three times its own quanti ty, and then it is dressed. Instead of the lonsr iron wire hairuins little shell trins are useaT and- the coils are so litrlitlv ,4fisWji55Liie wondering Hoosier wife reckons iiwai not be long before they all drop eut. Women who refuse to have their hair cnt into a bang are provided with a false front, but in every instance the transformation is admirable. The bill is sent to the congressman, and it is cheerfully paid. San Francisco Argo naut. Mitts Hill Complains. The mischief resulting from what may be called vicarious beneficence or the dis tribution of alms at other people's ex pense is complained of by Miss Octavia Hill, known as well in charitable circles in this country as in England. The Lon don county council has before it schemes for buildings for the working classes, and Miss Hill points out that the advo cates of such measures must consider that the bulk of the working people of London either can -or cannot be accom modated in such buildings. If only par tial accommodation is to be provided, she maintains, tho erection of such build ings, or even the possibility of their erec tion, will greatly paralj-ze individual ef fort. Much has been done by societies and individuals during the last 30 years to provide good houses for working peo ple on a self supporting basis. They are ready to extend the work, but not if they must compete with buildings subsidized by state aid. This is no imaginary dan ger, for Miss.Hill declares that she knows" this result to have already followed in specified instances. New York Post. Time to Protest. The development of sandwiches has up to the present time been confined to the "filling," but an exchange in, its cook- ine column, enlarges the list of sweet sandwiches to include "any fruit sliced, sprinkled with wine and liquor and sugar and placed between thin slices of stale soontre cake." This is a real blow and opens a vista of as unattractive possibili- ties.as when the old fashioned biscuit "shortcake" of our grandmothers, gener ous with well Bweetened and luscious strawberries and delnged with thick yel low cream, became the alum risen layer sponge cake, inclosing some dry, individ ual strawberries, which is the strawberry shortcake of the restaurant. Let us protest loud and long against any' "sandwich" fcpin which bread, the sine qua non of. all sandwiches, is elimi nated. New York Times. Mrs. Mackay's Dinner. On Saturday night Mrs. Mackay, the silver king's wife, gave a big dinner of extraordinary magnificence in combined honor of the Duke of Edinburgh and Mr. Bayard, the new American embassador. The dinner was for 40, and at it were all the most presentable and gilded Ameri cans in Lionuon, ana tnat aeiigntiui blending of aristocratically named Eng lish folk in which the Yankees delight. This practice sometimes leads to dire re sults, as in the case where an American invited Lord Mar and Killie and Lord Mar to dinner. The two families have been in deadly feud for centuries over disputed honors, but they had been asked, said the hostess, "as, being rela tions, they were sure to be pleased to meet," and she of course sent down the wrong one first because he had two ti tles. London Woman. Cutting Oranges' For the Table. A gentleman who has lived for years in the American countries in which tho orange grows is waging a war against the slovenly manner of cntting the or ange np and serving it on the table. In such a case he recommends that a very sharp knife, one as keen as a razor, be used, and the fruit cut into slices infin itesimally thin and built, layer about, with pulverized sugar. Pittsburg Dispatch. FOE LITTLE FOLKS. Children's Floral Parade. An interestinr event which took plac vramtlv in London was the children's parade in Begent's park.

Miuiv of the ideas were carried out all by the children, and the result in every case did credit to their imaginations ana clever fingers. For instance, what could be more charming than a sedan chair covered with pale green, decorated, with garlands of ferns and white and yellow flowers, and bearing inside it the quaint- 1 jlUBMBBMWVKr VVbmIBbbMbmVBhbmI est little maid, with satin gown and patch on cheek and feathered hat? The chair was carried by two tiny footmen in green and gold, and looked exactly as if it had all stepped, out of sometold pic- rare or stately uygone aays. 10 xnis as sign was awarded the first prize as being the best in the whole exhibition, but as the lovely procession passed slowly by the dais on which sat the Duke and Duchess of Teck and Princess May I thought each design more beautiful than the last. I am sure I could not describe half of them to you if I tried, but I must speak of the double mail cart, covered entirely with white lilies; of the Roman chariot, beautifully decked in brown and red, that held a youthful Roman adorned with a laurel wreath and was accom panied by a band of attendants; of the sweetest gray pony whose saddle and trappings were all of roses; of the model yacht outlined in flowers, and with the pennant and name woven of red, white and blue blossoms. Pall Mall Budget Mabel's Grandpa. Mr. Bennet is a bright and well pre served old gentleman, but to his little granddaughter, Mabel, he seemed very old indeed. She had been sitting on his knee and looking at him seriously for some mo ments one day when she said, "Grand pa, were you in the ark?'' "Why, no, my dear!" gasped her as tonished grandparent. Mabel s eyes grew large and round with astonishment. "Then why weren't you drowned?' New York Recorder. A Small Boy's Bank Account.

Exchange. tittle Joe Smith. Violinist. Master Joe Smith is a small violinist. He is a good violinist and a good boy. As can be seen in his picture, he is a little fellow, but ho has a big heart, and the work he has done for Tho Evening World's sick babies' fund is out of all proportion to his size. He got up a grand entertainment for tho fund at the Jack- sonians' clubhouse, in which his father, George Smith, who acted as stage man ager, assisted him. The entertainment was n. Yntr Knrrfm and Master Smith handed in a check for $43.30. Professor Springer kindly gave the services of his orchestra: Mr. A. Teschner played the piano, which was donated by the Steinway company, and u ranees Miiheiser, u years of age, sold 50 tickets for the affair. The tickets were 10 cents each. Master Smith's violin playing captured the house. New York Evening World. A Brave IJttle Boy. A little colored boy in Liberty county.

He wears a man's hat and a 9 shoe. Suppose Women Had Acted Sol If that row in the house of commons had been made by women, how it would have been quoted as proof that "the emo tional nature of women unfits them for political duties," that they are "lacking in the qualities that make statesmen" and "I told you so!'' But the superior sex took it out in giving each other black eyes and bad names and then went back to their seats content with their superi ority over women. But in fairness it must be said that they had the grace to apologize for their bad behavior. Bos ton Woman's Journal. A Delicious Summer Drink. Iced cocoa is one of the best cold drinks for lawn parties or luncheons in warm weather. First see that the tea kettle is filled with fresh cold water, and this is equally necessary for tea and cof fee. To each quart of water allow four heaping teaspoonfuls of cocoa. Put it in a double boiler and add gradually the qur.rt of boiling water. Mix and beat for a moment; then add one-half putt whipped cream, sugar to taste and stand aside to cool. Serve iced in glass mugs. If made well, this will be delicious. AN ECONOMICAL YOUNG WOMAN. Details f b lunur Wardrek and Mew Clerer Girt Made It Herself. I have read so much about wardrobes for summer that I want to tell you about mine. In the first place, I am not going to give prices, for If you belong to that great class of self supporting women who visit the retired little dining room of the Margaret Louise home, you will say, as one of my friends there said to me, "When I want to dress up, I just go home and put on a clean shirt waist." Perhaps I envied her freedom. But if you belong to the still larger class, who are obliged to dress well on slender parses and keep np "appearances," you will ap preciate how one of them does it. Iam my own milliner and designer. In that lies the secret of good dressing originality and tho selection of good ma terials in plain, quiet colors. Being a reddish blond, I favor dark blue and gray for street wear, pale blue and pale pink for the evening and white for gen eral use. I buy every article with a view to its matching something else, and often one piece looks as well with an odd bit as with the original costume. This affords great variety. My staple dress is the popular Eton of dark blue, and the vests for it are my own make ana design, and have at least the merit of being unlike any you ever saw. My favorite vest is of pink crepe de chine, made of my last winters kerchief. I ripped and gathered it into a pink sat in ribbon empire .belt, .with a large ro sette to join it in the back. It is drawn into tiny frills at", the neck with pink baby ribbon and falls into a soft bunch of white lace of odd pattern. Then I have a white silk vest made of a jabot of lace and cuffs to match. It was a guimpe, but it washed and made me a change for state occasions. And I risked a collar. Another vest is a demure little affair made of gray crepe de chine, with velvet collar and yoke, and is drawn into a pointed belt by means of a steel and laven der buckle. I had challis left over from my best gown, so I made, a fourth front and thought I had enough. It is sur prising how much can bo made from nothing with only half a trial. As I am a walker and a country girl, I need a pedestrian skirt of ample length, and for that I have a three summers' supply of shirt waists, white and ging ham. There is the first draft on my in come, the laundering. My boating and carriage dress is of heavy bedford cord, blue and white. But the crowning glory of my wardrobe is my reception dress. It consists of a skirt, a square cut waist, very sort, and a guimpe. The materials used are challis and crepe de chine; colors, pale blue and white; pattern, dainty flower spray. An empire belt of folds of crepe de chine and challis conceals where the waist fails to join the soft, round, full skirt. Frills and ruffles of lace outline the low, square neck and short puffed sleeves. Tho crepe de chine, gathered at the neck and waist with blue baby ribbon, forms the full undersleeves and clinging jacket. My chief item of expense is my gloves. for wherever I am, city or country. I insist on being perfectly gloved, and I cannot make theni. Edino T. Howard in New York Recorder.

THOMSON, xcliite'ct. Contractor and Bnilrr Tfae Monument of a Fanaoos Teacher. The memory of Miss Lucy M. Green is fresh in the minds of all who had the good fortune to be her pupils. Born at Worcester in 1810, she came to this city in 1831, and a few years later succeeded to tho principalship of the school for girls founded by Mrs. Esther Smith. For 30 years thereafter "Miss Green's school" was perhaps the most famous private educational institution in this country. It numbers among its gradu ates women known in literature, art, science and society. Retiring from the school in 1889, Miss Green spent the remainder of her life in quiet beneficence and died on May 8 last at Worcester. Some years ago the L. M. Green association was formed among her old pupils to maintain in her honor a summer home for self supporting women. That home is to be her monu ment, and those who directly or indirect ly are indebted to Miss Green's school can show their appreciation of her work in no better way than by contributing to the continued support of that home.

Mrs. Cookesley was obliged to decline an or der to paint the portraits of several of the sultan's wives and daughters. Wo man's Journal. Preserved Whole Peaches. Peaches and sugar of equal weight are put into the layers, as in the case of cut peaches, set over the fire, and a pint of water to each four pounds or fruit and sugar is added. Tho sirup is brought to a boil, which continues for half an hour, when the peaches are taken carefully out and nut on a flat dish in the sun. The sirup is boiled down till it is thick and clear, when the peaches are put back and boiled till they look clear, when the whole is ready for putting into the cans, which are sealed when cool. Good Housekeeping. Coming' Tjntlon Fashions. So far as can be judged from the gowns prepared with a view to the events of the autumn season, the change in fashion all points to a return to sim pler form. Trimming on the skirts is all flit and in many instances is placed from waist to hem, with & far prettier effect, especially to shorter women, than in bands around. London Telegraph. Two Girls Who Caa Walk. The Misses Plant, two Michigan girls, walked into Jackson park recently, and sitting down in the Michigan building announced that they had tramped all the way from Muskegon 220 miles. One is a dressmaker and the other a teacher. They are just thekind of wom en for tho World's fair, where there is little provision for the common variety of American women, whose legs give out on a mile walk. Kate Field's Wash ington.
