It Is not very generally known , perhaps ,
thni Bomo years ORO Queen Victoria caught
the dress reform fever anil Joined nn nnso-
elation. She furthermore Inveigled ft num
ber of her dowager friends Into becoming
members
Although the queen never astonished her
court by appearing In n dre/ss cut a In reformation
mation , she thought the Men of nome not
too radical reforms in dress n capital one
at Irast for the other \\omen
Through the qucen'a Influence the princess
of Wales and her daughters bccnnm Inter
ested and for a brief season 1'ilnccsi Vic
toria and the duchess of rife appeared upon
occasions In gnrtw that were at least semi-
reformed.
It cannot ho Bald , however , that they ever
became violently enthusiastic upon the sub
ject
During the last fifteen jears the princess
of Wales has scarcely varied the f.ishlon of
her costumes nt all Through the ngo of
big , putted sleeves she clung to Kinall ones.
Tor the make of her gowns the style known
ns the "princess" has alwa > s been adheicd
roil HARD COUNTRY DRIVES.
to and no ono has ever seen a "picture hat"
on her rojnl highness' head. She wears
only those dainty little bonnets which bear
her name. Tnllor-mado frocks and Jackets
she dotes on , although before going Into
mourning for her mother she had blossomed
out In very stunning toilets.
She does not favor the fashion of high
shoulder knots and her ball dresses aie made
with the old-fashioned court bodice , the
shoulder strap drooping on to the arm.
The Princess Beatrice's attlro Is apt to beef
of thoHluiplest descilptlon upon ordinary oc
casions. One traveling the continent who
had a peep at Queen Victoria nnd the
Princess Beatrice wrote home , "Nothing
could bo plainer than their gowns. "
The German ompiess , too , has well dc-
flncd Ideas about dress and once organized
a dress icform order , which counted among
its members many high , md mighty dames.
The ompretH , however. Is too fond of fine
dressing to carry these refoims very far.
Twclvo dressmakers are kept constantly em
ployed In the empress' tailoring depnrtment ,
as It IB called , under the superintendence of
a woman of the court. The staff Is In
creased to forty nt certain seasons , when
court festivities aio going on , or the em-
pi ess Is preparing for n journey. Blue and
white ore , by the way , the favorite colors.
The empress hujs yearly 100 evening and
fctato dresses , twice as many carriage and
slatting coatumcH and about 150 dcml-toll-
ottes and house dresses 150 frocks all told !
The fiowlnp ; machine * Is an unknown quan
tity In the empress' tailor shop. From. ? 25
to $50 a yard Is pild for the silks and batlns
of which her dresses arc made.
The empress of Russia spends more on her
wardrobe than any royal woman In Europe.
Until and for a short time after her mar-
rlngo sue- dressed 'with almost severe sim
plicity , but the grand women of the Russian
court took no nulns to conceal their disap
proval of the emprefB' Indifference to regal
splendor of nttlro nnd the result Is that her
majpsty Is gorgeous now In raiment which
might bo likened to " "

The fti\orlto dress of Queen Olga of

The cast-off deml-tollettes of royally and
carriage and house dresses are the per

woman with exquisite golden hair , deep

who recently met her at nn outdoor func

with silver tmssranentArlo , and she trailed

With "Lothalr. " she thinks that there Is a

pearl necklaces consists of clxtren rows of
magnificent pearls. Another one has ten
rows of pearls with great diamond slides

How to bo happy , though the hostess of n
laigo dinner party with a long menu , Is
whnt nn exceedingly thoughtful young lady ,
nt the rate of from $3 to J" an evening , Is
showing a number of wealthy women. This
youtig lady , who cnjoja n great gift for nil
artistic devices and practical measures In
connection with enteitnlnlng , lost her own
fortune not long ngo and In looking around
for a means of bread winning decided to
become a professional bearer of dinner party
anxieties.
Her Idea TMIS too good not to fall Into
prompt nnd profitable working order and
last winter she hud rather moro engagements
at $1 nn evening than she could fill. What
she does literally Is tn mnnago dinners , or
wedding breakfasts , or Targe luncheons , and
though she neither cooks nor waits on table
she fulfills n most Important mission.
She Htands before the- hostess In all worry.
A half hour before the meal Is served she
appeals In the dining room nnd sees to It
: hit Kic hullcr has got the table set and
Ms own toilet arrnngod anil the pink of
norfcctlon , that the wines jirp rising or fall-
ng to precisely the right temperature , then
she dons her big apron , and as guests file
nto the dining room she takes her stand
by the pantry' * * dumb waiter , to not only
observe that every dish cornea up exactly
on time , but piping hot when It ought to bo
lot , chilled to tlio marrow when the chill
s necessary , but , furthermore , nho tnstes It
to see that iltsy flavor la exactly wihat It
ought to be.
Having a quick wit , resourceful mind and
profound knowledge of French cookery , she
: akcs care that no dish passes onto the table
hat Is not above reproach. Where she Htands
in the pantry there Is heard none of the
crash nnd grind of dinner party machinery ;
no long walls between , courses elapse , nnd
the first diop of every wlno poured must
first be tested on her sensitive pink tongue.
Now this may seem a sinecure , but grate
ful hostesses look upon her work asi nn ex-
nltcd modern philanthropy , for oven if the
butler Is a perfectly new man1 , the cook a
losslblo tialtor > to her trufat , and the ca-
.crer apt to play tricks with ihls Ices and
borbets , so long as the dinner manageress
Is at the pantry helm nothing can gp wrong ,
no cold soups , no hot champagne , diled up
airds , or scotched vegetables will over make
their appearance at the table. With nil the
ease of an unfettered soul the hostess can
give her whole mind to her guests. If she
is a hostess new at 'tho ' business she can
send for the manageress beforehand and
have her dinner all planned for her , every
detail considered , even to the color of the
flowers and the pattern , on1 Iho tablecloth ,
and tliovery latest surprise in an epicurean
delicacy worked up for the , envious delecta
tion of her guests. But 4.his is an extra.

A girl Is aeiy expensive luxury nowa
days , whether she lives in England or
America. Still it costs more to maKe one's
debut in England than it does In America ,
for over there a girl is not properly Intro
duced unlit she has been presented at court
and thq cost of launching a daughter In so
ciety is something to drive Impecunious
fathers into a lunatic asjlum. One girl who
came up from her Berkshire homo to be
presented this spring has glvea nn account
of what she endured and what her father's
pocketbook suffered. First , a largo aristo
cratic and hnndsomcly furnished houao was
icnted In London ( or the season nearly
every ono rents his town house now and a
big rent charged. Then began the work of
laying in a wardrobe.
This girl first paid a visit to a place where
corsets are made to order. She had a
pretty figure , but madam Insisted that she
must have an clghteen-lnch waist to be
beautiful. She was measured and fitted for
riding , opera and ordinal y corsets and the
bill came to $100.Twentyfive pair of the
smartest boots and slippers added to the
bills. A score of pretty hats , to go with
various dresses , made a big hole In $500 , and
three times the amount went to the dress
maker. A riding habit coat ? 50 , a bicycle
suit the same and several dozes pairs of
gloves to match were no small Item.
The presentation dress .cost . $000 , though
It wns plainly made of exquisite white satin
'broche. ' For a fee of $15 a lady cnme nnd
taught the young lady the court bow , the
way to courtesy and carry her train. This
was hard work for the debutante and she
said she was as tired after nn afternoon
with her teacher as though she had spent
the time on the golf links. And after air
the time nnd trouble It was but a few brief
seconds she spent In the royal presence.
But she was properly launched and happy.

A I MVH of n Doctor on tlic Courage
of the 1'iilr hex.
"Of course , I concur In it , " said the emi
nent and famous Chicago surgeon who was
Interrogated In regard to feminine and mas
culine courage "No , I shouldn't be prepared -
pared to Bay that It's all for the sake of add
ing to a woman's personal beauty that she's
brave , cither. I think that her courage is of
a very fliio kind and n kind quite beyond
the rencu of the ordlnnry man. Now , moat
men take the preliminaries of an operation
bravely , although I have known plenty who
flunked nt the last moment. A man usually
la > s down on the operating table with a
joke or would-be fuuny speech Intended to
prove to us al ? how little geared ho Is and
which really gives him away hopelessly.
The woman , white and trembling with nerv
ousness and fear very often , simply gives
herself over Into our hands without a word
or sign It made mo smile when some people -
plo declared at the commencement of the
war excitement about a year ngo that
women nurses would bo no good , because
they would be cowardly , nervous If jou
like the word botler , and so utterly unable
to face the honors of battle. Why , a biave
woman will go an > where , bear anything , do
anything without Illnchlng , and , mind you ,
when I say a brave woman I don't mean
a woman who is naturarly courageous and
reckless , by nny means. Such courage
doesn't count In the kind of problems which
we are considering. I mean the woman
who la deathly afraid , who Knows sbo Is
afraid , who knows that every one else knows
It , but who is determined to Ignore the fact
cntlicly nnd to behave as If It wejre not a
fact at all. There are hundreds of such
women In Chicago and elsewhere , and it Is
this kind of courage which -carries a per
son. whether man or woman , through the
trials and viclbsitudcs of life safely and
without going to pieces. It used to be cus- ,
tomuVy and oven conventional to poke fun
at a woman who was afraid of bug , snakes.
Insects and creeping things In general , But
give me the woman who grows pale with
fear at sight of surh things , but remains
bravely silent through It nil If there Is need
of real courage It's n sort of Instinct with
women to bo bravo , In my opinion , nnd
thnfs nl ? there is to It that nnd the fno'
thnt the woman of today Is nshnmcd to bo
afrnld nnd Is determined thnt the ne\t gen
eration shall not even know what fear Is ,
If she can help It. "
'U'rlde's a safe cloak , I'll weir it , but no
rags , " quoted the woman phvgldan , famous
as well for her society achievements nnd
her widespread populailty , who was nlso
asked to sa > something concerning the ques
tion of women nnd her courage as compared
to man's.
"It is pildo which makes nine out of
every ten of us brave , or nppear so , " she do-
clnied , oracularly. " 1'rldo nnd the desire to
bo beautiful , to bo powerful , which you
have mentioned nnd which lies at the bot-
torn of every true woman's heart. When It
was fashionable for women to be timid and
nervous , jou will remeniber , almost every
woman was so , or endeavored to put on this
appearance. Brave women were nt a dis
count In those dajs , just as timid ones are
now. Now that It Is faslonabln to be bravo
we all try to bo so. If we haven't the vlitue
of courage "we assume It , > ou know , and
most of us try to be brave , although at the
bottom of her heart almost every daughter
of n\o is afraid of all manor of things. It
Is her natural heritage from the dajs when
all things seemed very much against her.
And then , too , speaking of the assumed
biavcry , women have suffeied so much In
all ages and it has been so thoioughly In
grained into the feminine nature that it Is
neither wlso nor womanly to bo perpetually
complaining that a aoit of forced courage
has become practically instinctive. Men me
really braver , perhaps , but they have never
leaincd to disguise their feelings so well
ns women. This is the reason they don't
face ph > slcal pain so bravely nowaday. "
