Prof. George Vincent , of tbo Culver-
ulty of Chicago , talked to the Daugh
ters of the Revolution recently , lie
didn't discuss the canals on the planet
Mars , and he never touched on the
moon's phases or any of the ologles ,
but grappled with "Fashion. " lie says
It Is a good thing , and that people who
sneer at It are "boors" and "snobs. "
He nlso charges that "we , " which
means all humanity , are a lot of "Imi
tators. " "Kach person attempts to out
do it neighbor In the style of garments
und architecture of manners laid down
by some loader , " says the learned pro-
fVsnor. According to the professor's
line of rcas.inlng , If Mrs. Potter Palmer
appears with a bird on her Sunday hut ,
Home other lady Is bound ( o conic be
fore the public with more birds on her
bonnet. And the thing must progress
In the succession of human folly until a
woman's headgear would look like a
cage at the Xoo. fashion Is every year
becoming more of a matter of good
tattle , nnd also a business necessity.
People , men and women , are Judged a
good deal by their raiment. In the
hnilncas world the demand Is thnt
those who participate must be
dre/wed / neatly. That doesn't mean Im
itation or that the New York and Paris
styles nliall bo followed. Hut the man
or woman who has to meet the public ,
or who desires to gain the cars of bust-1 i
ness people , must give some attention I
to dross , pay some respect to conven |
tionality. It Is a demand made by
business , nnd If not respected , carries
Its own penalty. When It comes to
the society end of the argument , a
renlm where clothes nnd the wearing
of them becomes an art nnd nn Issue ,
It may be well to leave the entire sub
ject to Prof. Vincent. It will probably
be some time before the University of
Chicago Issues Its catalogue of spring
styles. Until then Individuals should
patronize home merchants , and hope
for other rays of light on the what-to-
wear question.

There are some exceedingly odd rules
thnt apply to members of the British
parliament-rules that HCem to have
been suggested by some humorist of
the time In ( he dim and almost forgotten -
ten past when they were adopted. Only
the most daring of the members over'
dare to violate the code of laws , writ-
ten or unwritten , thnt have been In
vogue for a century or more. Probably
the most singular rule of all Is that
which prohibits n member of the House
of Commons from raising both his feet
from the lloor at the same time. He
can wave one foot wildly In the air If
be wants to , but thu other must rest
upon the lloor. This rule , however ,
does not apply to members who sit on
the front benches. Kor some unexplain
ed reason they nre allowed the privi
lege of doing what they like with their
feet.

the towers stood the shock no ono

POOR KIND OF A WIFE.
Indeed , baa the
woman between 30 nnd 40
come to dominate the singe ,
tin uuthor'fl brnin and steal the henrta
of men ? In a great measure , nnd naturally -
! turally because the modern man pro-
! fora an n wlfo the woman who knows
her world.
Fifty years ago , and back of that ,
when the man married young , ho took
n wife who was his Junior. She kept
house nnd looked after the bableo , and
, he was her providence , her guide aud
her defender. Distinctly he married a
help-meet , he WUH the pioneer and oho
walked In his footHtcpa. Today men
do not want to marry working part-
no PH. hut companions. The average
imu ) waits until he 1ms made Ids mon
ey , has had his light with the world
alone , and , having lived as an Inde
pendent bachelor , linn a dominant
yearning for comfort , sayn the Pitta-
burg Leader.
The modern man IH both lazy nnd
selfish when It cornea to wedding. Lie
desire * the Joys and shirks the re
sponsibilities of matrimony , and this
Is where he turns to the middle-aged
woman. Shu has lived long enough
In the world to know Its requirements
and to learn Its philosophy. She is
not easily Jealous , Is not whimsical ,
and In never exacting. She has found
out a great deal about men , and knows
what renders them happy. She does
not talk to servants , run up bills , quar
rel with her husband's mother nor In
sist upon being considered and enter
tained every moment. She keeps
lioii.se like a veteran , she believes thnt
little absences make the heart grow
'
fonder , nnd does not therefore , forbid
I her husband's annual shooting or fish
ing trip with his inascullno friends.
With the man of to-day these are
the true matrimonial delight * , and his
heart Is laid at the feet of thu woman
who , by Instinct , ho feels will glvo
him just that sweet sympathy and
true friendship that leaves him , after
all , aa free as during his bachelor days ,
yet with thu tlen , affections and dig
nities of the married state.
These reasons , however , cogent ua
they undoubtedly arc , do not fully ex-
plain why the middle-aged woman has
taken the young girl's place nt the altar -
tar nnd fireside. The underlying cause
can be found In the young women
themselves. Their education , their
ambitions nnd their opportunities
bring forth , at the marriageable ages
of 18 and 20 , hysterical , self-centered ,
cold and Imperious young goddesses. i
Tim QMlwuilu utiil rtnllitirnu lonnli flnitti I
( reek and the higher mathematics ,
but they don't turn out the materials
from which sweethearts nnd wives are
made. Thu romance , the subtle charm
of womanliness , thu gift of sweet sym
pathy , all have been successfully
eliminated In order to make way for
higher mental cultivation. The mod
ern young woman Is hard , Ignorant of
domestic economy nnd above all of
masculine nature. In Kulf-defensu the
man has turned to her matured sister
of 80 or thereabouts. To men there Is
| neither poetry , eluslveness nor mys
tery about the young girl of his time.
' She Is amusing like n clever , conceited
j pretty liny , and as much fun ; but she
| Is a crudu bund In the house , aud till
bur culture and golf have not taught
|
her an exquisite understanding of the
masculine nature and Its needs , that
the seiitlnuutal heroines of the old ro
mances knew and the tactful trained
woman of 110 now realizes nnd practic
es upon.
Until children are U or 7 years old
they should have twelve hours' sloop
every night , and In addition to this
the infants should have a nap of two
hours or more either In the morning
or afternoon.
Obedience must be taught , but we
should never undertake to teach It In
the spirit of vengeance. We should
punish only when extremely necessary ,
and then with love and ( Irinno and
after careful thought.
An Infant should not be given any
food containing starch until It cuts It.s
eeth. Starch foods Include corn , Hour ,
aploca , sago , rice , potatoes , etc. An
infant Is not old enough to digest any
of these until Its teeth arc cut.
Very young babies should take their
bath at a time between two feedings ,
when the process Is well over , and the
baby is encased In soft , clean change of
dainty garments , he can have Ills milk
and go to sleep , to awaken later ready
to go for the outing that keep * the lit
tle cheeks rosy.
It will be found of great convenience
to have a low chair to sit In while
bathing the baby ; If this Is not nt hand
take one of the common kitchen chairs
and have a few Inches sawed off the-
legs. It Is not nearly such a strain on
one's back If the stooping over the tub
cnn be done from a low seat.

The newest dresses for very llttl *
girls arc mnde with long bodies with
.soflhes low down almost about the
knees , and tbo shortest , merest apolo
gies of skirts.
Tbe tendency , at present , la toward
sheer , rather than thick materials , but
very thin organdy Is decidedly less pop
ular than It WIIB a yenr ago. Batiste
also has lost somewhat of Its favor.
The silk underskirt Is not to have
nearly so great a popular vogue as In
previous yenrs. The French lingerie
petticoat tbat Is , a petticoat of white
muslin profusely adorned with Ince ,
euioroiuery nnu UICKS or tiic fanciest
description Is to be more generally
adopted than for many yenrs past. One
very deep flounce , with a full frilling
under the hem of It , or three or four
tiny ruflles placed upon It , Is n favored
method of making these skirts.
We nil rejoice In the disappearance of
tbe wrist-band , nn ugly , plain , tight af
fair , highly unbecoming to any but n
baby baud. In place of It our under-
sleeves now show tbe "fitted band , " u
spreading sheath-shape piece , which
extends over the wrist , and to which
Is stitched thu fall of lace now required
to edge the undendeeve. This falls
down over the band. The fitted sbentb
which replaces the wrlst-bnnd , Is some
times called a "mousquetnire , " but It
oxnctly reverses the shaped cuff which
accompanies the mousquetalre glove.
Women who object to lace collars on

not more than four Inches wide and six

The tabs have a foundation of glace

which ono seems to want on the little

of Inca collars
