NEW YOHK , Juno 2. Moglomanla is the
affliction of all well-dressed women nt pro.-
ont , nnd this abnormal development of head
IH brought about by a system of blow sing
and puffing nnd slulllng nnd pompadourlng ,
the llko of which has not been Been since
the ilayfl of Oeorgo III.
Unfortunately , the prevnlllnK coiffure Is
very dinicult to build gracefully nnd stately
without the aid of n skillful maid or a hair
dresser's art , and too sadly often Is the hat
of the times popped upon an elaboration of
Bllky locks that more nearly resembles a
last year's crow's nest than a sweet
woman's head. The end and aim of all ef
fort hi hair arrangement la to have- the
hugcst fi owning frontlet of n pompadour
possible , nnd a deliberate balloon-llko effect
behind. A scries of combs and n system of
rnts are the nccoswry apparatus for the
erection of such studied nrtinclallty , and
fo\v women bother any longer to wave nnd
curl. The pompadour Is best when It rolln
back qulto smoothly , but the back hair Is
occasionally crimped a Ilttlo nnd then what
Is left of hair cndfl for colling Is drawn
up Into a small roll or close psjcho knot on
the crown.
No Doubt of Itn lIcconiliiKiirNN.
Untidy , as ninety-nine out of a hundred
of these puffy heads are , the effect of loose
billowing hair about the face la almost sure
to bo becoming. Then bath blouse nnd
pompadour rolls nre used as pln-cushlons
In n small way for more or loss ornnmcntcd
hair brooches. Thcso brooches were first
used In 1'nrls two yenis ago , nnd at that
time women drew back their veils and with
Ilttlo Jouclcd 'pins ' fastened the ends In a
bmall rosette bow to the hack hair. New ,
however , that Jewel-bordered combs nro
waning to disappearance , wo Imvo taken
kindly nnd iiulto universally to tbo hair
brooch.
During the day when shopping and callIng -
Ing , u Ilttlo wreath of gold sot with , colored
stones , the whole affnlr no .bigger than n ,
25-cent piece , is considered sutnclent , but at
night , really splendid ornaments glitter nlnd
gleam In the Huffy glebe of back hair.
Perhaps the prettiest and most popular
form of hair clasp Is a very long , very
slender crescent of pc.irls ; another now de
sign Is n long archer's bow of flno flllagrco
gold , strung > wlth n gold thread , on which
n few small 'pearls ' or brilliants nre gath
ered. An extensive nrrow with barb nnd
fenihcr of Jewels Is nl.iother novel pattern ,
and not content with adorning the rear of
their heads , the women 'who rolgn at the
top of the fashion have adopted the unique
fancy for fastening ( lowers or Jewels or
both , simultaneously In their Tolling pom
padours. This Is a. relic of Marie An
toinette's court , nnd scorns fairly to demand
the nddltld.i of patches nnd jiowder.
llliu-U anil White FroeliK.
White Swiss muslin , trimmed with black
lace or delicate black point esprit , gives at
all the first summer festivities abundant
proof of Its great and growing popularity.
A moro frostily delicate and more sug
gestively cool combination It Is quite Im
possible to devise , and all the gay , fnsh-
lonablo matrons have claimed It In prefer
ence to the- colors and bright ribbons of the
younger generation. At the garden parties
nnd early luncheons , for driving nnd nftor-
noon calls , there nro literally hundreds of
thcso Swiss and black not dresses In evi
dence. They are hung over black , or white ,
or violet undor-dresseH , worn with black
gronadlno ribbon touches and hats of grey
tulle dotted In black nnd ornamented with
long plumes of dotted tulle , the bones or
centers of which are flno lines of sparkling
black spanglw.
Originally this combination was designed
as second mourning by a Parlslnn modlsto
for the princess of Wales , who has not yet ,

by outward and visible signs , ceased to
honor the memory of her mother , and worn
with the Inevitable ) pearl hair brooches nnd
iicokchaln , It forma for our Americans a
wonderfully distinguished and suitable
tollot.

'Always ' with her summer gown , oven If
U ( jo a crisp white shirt wnlst and duck
skirt , the * smart woman carries ono of the
many species of short boa. U seems to tie
ns essential to her well-being ns her nock
chain , and It Is made often us not of the
eroy tulle mentioned above , speckled o'er
with small and large nnd plnhe.nl dots of
black velvet. Some very lovely nnd , be It
candidly said , very expensive examples of
such tulle boas have their full raw cut
edges button-hole finished with black silk ,
else a line ( loss fringe borders tbo tulle.
Not one of the boas Is so long that Us
ends will reach more than a few Inches
below the waist line , nnil the majority are
fat and full In the center , tapering to very
pointed end : . A finely accordion-pleated
boa of white taffeta mousselalue edged with
narrow ro\\s of black lace , white spiral lace
boas , nnd those of liberty gauze gathered
up with ruflles of bill ; muslin or chiffon ,
are all dolUg active duty In the realm of
the woll-drejsod , and no ono can fall to
remark the conspicuous absence everywhere
of the long-trusted feather boa. Evidently
this is not a feather season.
Pai-tlicr i : > ulntlon of the Shirt IVulat.
It Is a season of continued evolution ,
however , la the shirt waist and all that
pertains thereunto , Indeed , It requires a
sharp eye and busy > bratU to keep pace with
the protean movements of this cherished
Ilttlo garment. One of its newest develop-
to incuts is a tall This is an appendage to
f
most of the pique shirts and the tall rprlngs
at the back , extending as far forward only
ns the hips nnd being cut In three or four
hatchet-shaped tabs , Is edged with embroid
ery or made rigid .with close-set stltchllngs.
The yoked wnlst not only has como to
stay , but Us finely tucked bib must be eo
cut as to form the top of the sleeve , or
fall ns n cap over the sleeve. Then , too ,
mention must bo made of the aklrt that
has Us own washable belt , braced with A
linen lining , punctured with white enamel
or buttonhole-worked cjelets , nnd applica
ble to any bucklo. Finally wo 'have ' a cuff
of whtto linen on n colored shirt that folds
back i'a ' three bag-shaped or wcdge-llkc
pieces , becoming to all hands , nnd lastly a
captivating ne > w necktie ct a narrow band
of polka-dotted silk ending in two bravo
Ilttlo tassels. This and the big bandann

rule by majority during the comltog months.

The weather Is rlpo for the easy breeze-
Inviting neglige , and she who lounges In lior
own room under the shade of nwulngs wears
n wldo Japanese jacket of wash silk It she
knows where the mercury is going. Habutal
silk , In white stripes on n palo tinted back
ground , or cool white llnon Inwn , is the
usual choice for the Incomparable Ilttlo gar
ment that is shaped exactly like a kimono ,
burring the long , narrow skirts. Falling
wide nnd toose about the body , the fronts
nnd big sleeves nro faced with silk or muslin
In some solid tint that harmonizes with the
wearer's complexion. For very hot days there
nre especially designed luncheon Jackets to
which any woman should take kindly and
which can be made most simply and Inex
pensive or olaboiatoly and costly. The model
Jackets brought from Paris are made chiefly
of wool , unllncd foulard or spotted eiepo do
chine , nnd the fuli'nesa of 'the ' garments Is
drawn into the- waist by a broad glrdlo of
shirring. The fronts fall loose nnd pointed
often to the kncos , nro garnished with Ince ,
nnd the neck Is open In a point under the
chin , where a four-ln-hand bow of chiffon or
liberty silk is knotted.
With nil tea nnd luncheon nnd Invalid
negliges of the season itho sleeves Invariably
show elbow length , of transparent material ,
and touched off with pointed frlir of lace or
pleated lace. Lovely tea gowns are made
very llko the luncheon Jackets of crepe , silky
vollo , nnd , more costly still , of lace and
whlto muslin striped with the almost
ubiquitous Inserting of narrow black net.
The summer vornnda gowns , as thcso
stately wrappers are euphemistically called ,
were the first mediums for the wholesale In
troduction cf tinted and rainbow lace that
women have adopted with acclaim. This
new ornamentation oftenest nppears in tor
chen , imitation Venetian point and Ilonlton ,
done In itho Intermingled threads of whlto
cream , dark brown nnd ornngo yellow. Used
on n gown of daffodil yellow liberty silk
or crepe do chine , the rainbow lace is
daintily showy , nnd few of these costumes
for elegant languor are made without a touch
of green. Lily lent green is the tint the
designers prefer , advocating It as the coolest
In the present weather , nnd when brought
against the face n color least likely to
heighten the shine of a flushed , greasy sur
face that oven the fairest countenances now

SOUTHEIIX G'lULS ' AS HOSTAGES.
Cnntiirc of Fifty Pretty Confederates
liy the Mnrlm-H < > f Fort ( illmon.
"Iwas mixed up in one little unrecorded
event of the civil war , " said General D ,
"that was Interesting from Its very un-
usunlness , nnd which as I look back upon
It seems strangely picturesque. We were
attached to what was known ns the Marine
Drlgndes , a Ilttlo fleet of twelve 'tin-clad'
river steamboats that piled up and down
the Mississippi after the surrender of Vlcks-
burg. The term 'tln-clnd , ' by the way , Is
somewhat misleading , as it Is not remotely
connected with the whlto metal , but signi
fies rather boats "heavily " planked with oak
for the purpose of protecting them some
what from the ravages of bullets.
"Ono dny our Ilttlo battalion of four com- ,
panles was ordered to steam down the river ,
disembark at Rodney , march to Fort Gib
son , and there consult sealed orders In re
gard to further proceedings. Imagine our
surprise upon reading the Instructions to
find/that we wore expected to capture and
carry back to Vlcksburg as prisoners fifty
of the most aristocratic confederate young
women in the city. However , we had
served long enough to obey orders without
question , and provided with guides familiar
with the town , wo set about our bizarre and
not too agreeable task. Wo first established
"headquarters " at the residence of a promi
nent confederate Judge. Then different
squads were ecnt out to call at the homes
of the young women and escort them to the
place of rendezvous. The instructions were
that they must report at headquarters
within two hours on penalty of their family
residence being burned to the ground. The
only information wo could give them ( the
whole transaction was as much mystery to
us as to fhem ) wna that they were to ho
taken to Vlcksburg as prisoners of war ,
'but ' were on no account to suffer any dis
comfort or Indignity.
"Of course there was great weeping , wall
ing and gnashing of teeth from tender
mothers , loving sisters , and Irate fathers
and brothers. Dut the incident bad to be
accepted as belonging to the fortunes of
war , and at tbo end of two hours forty-
nlno of the fifty , attended by anxious friends
and relatives , were at the rendezvous.
Mercy was implored for the ono delinquent.
An additional hour was granted , and at
their own suggestion several of the young
women were dispatched to her 1iome to pcr-
suado nor to follow their example In grace
fully submitting to the inevitable. The re
sult was that before the hour was up the
last fair prisoner put in an appearance ,
though in a very defiant mood.
"Our troubles , however , were by no
means ended here. Indeed , they were hardly
fairly begun. The next queotlon was how-
to transport our beautiful captives to Rod-
uoy , n distance of seme twenty miles , over
roads that were In frightful condition from
tbo devastations of war and conbcquent neg
lect. All the good horses , too , llko all the
good men , were off to the war , and as for
carriages , they had most decidedly fallen
into a state of Inocuoua desuetude. There
wnu obviously nothing for us to do , there
fore , but to gather together all the broken-
down old horsed and dilapidated vehicles
In the vicinity , which we somehow managed
to hitch together with plow harnesses , bits
of rc < po , straps , etc. With these improvlead
coaches drawn up into line , we began the
process of loading on our victims , and when
they were all stowed away It was a motley
looking procession , I can assure- you , Even
the sound of farewells and the eight nf
weeping eyes could not blind us to the
humorous aspect of the scene. You must
remember that we were all pretty young
fellows In 1863. The civil war was fought
by men whose average age was only 3 ,
Well , we made our way slowly umldst team
and laughter to Rodney , where we embarked
for VIckeburg. Upon arriving here the
young wcmen were taken before the provost
marshal , who put them on parole confining
them to the limits of the city. Most of
them had friends in town -with whom they
chose to remain , and suitable quarter * were
found for the rest ,
"The reason for the whole transaction
then transpired. It seemed that < < ome north
ern young women school teachers had been
tnkon prisoners by the confcderntes nnd
were nt thnt moment in their camps , where
they were forced to wnsh nnd mend for the
soldiers nnd perform other menial services.
Thrao confederate young women wore ,
therefore , to ho held ns hostages until the
northern women were released. There was
Ilttlo dclny In the exchange , nnd wo hnd
our fair visitors In Vlcksburg only thirty
days. They were , however , very gay , de
lightful days. Yankee officers and confeder
ate maidens Intermingled socially , and the.
acquaintance so rudely forced upon the
beautiful southerners proved in some in
stances a mutual pleasure. I could , Indeed ,
point to more than ono romantic marriage
that was the direct outcome of our raid
upon Fort Gibson. "

Fri Klle Wiire.
A Boston girl has begun the work of re
pairing precious pottery , glassware , porce
lain and statuary. Last year she patched
up $300,000 worth of fragile ware , and she
got nearly 10 per cent on the value of the
goods redeemed. It is said to have been
moro than the salary of Mayor Qulncy or
Governor Wolcott. Thla girl ibegan by in
ducing a large department house to allow
her to repair , not only their own fine pot
tery and glassware , but to tnko orders from
customers of the house who brought their
broken ware there in the hope that there
was some ouo in tbo establishment who
could fix It up , She wits nn nrtlst to be
gin with and In addition * he hnd n good
deal of mechanical ingenuity. Later she
got n contract from nn art museum In Bos
ton to do Bitch work of this kind ns the
museum could supply. This includes many
rare nscs and other articles which are dug
up In old world field ? , nnd which reach the
museum a mnis of n thousand fragment.1 ; .
The little pieces are taken to the studio ot
the brlc-ft-brne surgeon , nnd there the nr
tlst mechanic spends hours , days nnd weeks
In assorting the fragments nnd putting them
together.
She uses a particularly flno kind of ce
ment , which is mndo from the albumen of
eggs , mixed with evaporated whoy. This
cement will cnduro heat and moisture nnd
Is everlasting. One of the latest triumphs
of this girl Is scon In n built-up glnss urn
from the valley of the Nile. This precious
relic Is exhibited In a museum. It is ap
parently flawless nnd through it the beau
tiful hues ot the rainbow shimmer llko the
dancing colors of n soap bubble in the sun
light. Yet this urn came to the museum
In thousands of Ilttlo bits. So carefully
have these fragments been put together
A LUXUR10U S TEA ROBE
that scarcely a trace of the mending can be
seen , even by the keenest ojes. Recently
n fabulous prlco was offered for the urn
and refused.

Mrs. Humphrey , writing In the Juno
Ladles' Home Journal on "How to Be Pretty
Though Plain , " asserts ithat the best ad-
vlco she could give the girl who would at
tain a graceful figure Is contained in two
words : "Avoid exaggeration. " "We all
know how disappointing , If not actually an
noying , it Is to see n pretty face
associated with an awkward figure
or an uncouth gait. Now , .graceful
ness is almost always capable of being cul
tivated , to some degreent least , even In
caeca which may seem to be of the hope
less sort. Calisthenics have converted
many nn awkward girl Into au unrecogniz
ably graceful nnd charming 'edition of her
former self. Many a growing girl has her
figure and carriage ruined for life by want
of cnro , nnd tnoro pnrtl-ulnrly motherless
girls , who have no kind elder to make them
lie down for nt least nn hour every dny.
The recumbent posture nvcrts many nn ovll.
The shoulders should bo perfectly flat upon
the coucn mill the hprtd be only slightly
raised , Girls nro such active , vigorous
creatures that they often object to lying
down In this way , but a , cnreful mother may
easily lenrn how to turn this restful time
Into a pleasure , In almost nil cases Im
provement wilt result from gymnastic nnd
callsthcnlo exercises , from rowing , drilling
nnd swimming. But It Is nb < ilutcly neces
sary that the pntlent should be mindful con
stantly of her own bearing. She must hold
her shoulders back , her head up nnd her
chest forwnrd. At llrst this position will
cause some stiffness , but If persevered It
nnd accompanied by cnllethcnlc exercises , o
even games llko lawn tennis , Itwill soon
become natural , ensy nhil grncoful. "
