At the convention of the National League of NVomeii Workers one of the clubs represented was the Woman's Home Improvement t'.luli. Among the objects of this club , to which only mar ried women arc eligible , Is the promo- lion of the Imppln'css of married wom en. If there IK need of such a society the object Is truly praiseworthy. Iut ! Is the happiness of married women so uncertain that a society must be organ- l/.cd to secure ItV Aru husbands un able to fill till the promlsii * made before the nmrrliigo vows wore taken , or Is it the married women themselves who arc at fault tlmt' ' they are not as happy as married women ought to be ? One can understand Ihu necessity of furthering the happiness of the "anxious and aim less , " and of relieving the distress of forlorn , deserted maidens but organ- i/.ed effort to promote the happiness of married women ought to be a work of .supererogation. There Is. lee , another phase of the matter which the Home Improvement Club has evidently over looked. The very fact thai these mar ried women admit the need of further Ing their own happiness proclaims to the unmarried that the wedded staio i.s not a realization of "love's young dream , " and tlmt marriage Is not so happy an affair after all. The , better way would bn for husbands to form a club and from their various experiences In trying to make their wives happy In dorse , ns a club , those which hnvo proved most successful. This would IIL I the scientific way of solving the proh- i lem. Or , If women preferred lo taki the active part , they might reach tin. desired result by llrst studying \ \ \ \ they could prompt o the happiness of their husbands , knowing \\ell that their own happiness depends lu great meas ure on the state of exaltation or de pression In which n man finds himself after breakfast , dinner and supper.

On tlie other hand , these goods may be very richly trimmed when , that is desired. An Illus tration was the cuiplro coat at the right in this group.

Another decoration used a great deal on the.su goods consists of bands of colored tdlk piped with white and act on In vari ous ways. White bauds often appear on the black velvet coats.

Occasionally the Kus- .stun blouse or Norfolk jacket is Been , the latter usually accompanied by ankle skirts. Then there are close coats round ing from the front over fancy vest of embroidered cloth or velvet. Another ba.sniie arrangement appears in the third model of the second picture. Here a coral red zlbc-linu was the goods , and bands of oriental embroidery gave the trimming.

Buttons and fancy braid * coinu In here , too , Greens , browns , reds , coral , sapphire and royal blues , tans and biscuit shades are favored for these suits. The artist puts two of the eton suits in the concluding sketch , and with them a gown for the same use , but with a bodice tliut Moused a bit. The first of these three gowns was dark green broadcloth , with black ser pentine braid and military collar of black velvet , the inner bodice being white linn- nel embroidered with black.
