Lapped In pil lows and swathed In mug p8 of tha faintest liluo crcpo de chlno the hostess Iny prone and miffcrlng In a violet haunted sitting room. "This Is what , my dear , I cnll the real blncli bread of life , " she moaned melodi ously at Mrs. Van Knickerbocker , sodvcd beside the divan , her fair brow all wrinkled wllh sympathy. "Until yon catno 1 was beginning to regard existence na a hollow sham nnd mockery. " "And how did It all happen , dear ? " "On thu Ire nt the rink day before yes terday. I was brought homo qultn Inacn- Hlblo from pain and have not been able to cat or sleep for the horrible anguish over since , " canio filtered through n lace edged handkerchief. "And how beautifully you do bear It , " sighed the sympathetic occupant of the chair. "If you could have seen me In my skating dress , Mary ! " continued the voice behind the valcnclenncs tear stauncher. "Tho most becoming thing I've owned this winter. I'd only had It on once and--and " A faint gurgling very clearly Indicated to the listener that another shower of tcara threatened nnd nho hurriedly and dlplo- mntlcally Inquired : "Do tell mu what It was like. My young est slater U out , you know , this season ; she mimt have u skating milt and 1 am quite put to It for mlvlce to give her. " "Tell her to have her skirt only ( a the nttkle. Xonu of the smart women nro wearing theirs an Inch nhortcr than Is abso lutely necruBnry. " responded the hoatess , with n sudden return to fortitude and things of subllmary Interest. "Last winter most of im skated In golf skirts -nnd red llanncl or velveteen shirt waists , but this season the nonscnsuB of opinion seemed to bo In favor of n becoming little gown that will nat only do for skating , but for baj mlnton howling and the like winter sports , where one really wants a short nklrl anil u pretty trimmed waist. Snortlim ; SoiirlH. . "On careful Investigation of the whole question 1 discovered that do what you llko srarlol must play a prominent part lu ono's winter sporting dress , and for a young girl I don't think I luivo seen anything mere entirely worthy of Imitation than the simple , graceful and quite Inexpensive lit tle skating frock that Miss Stuyvcsant Klsh wore the evening of my unhappy accident. The eklrt was of coral red vicuna ami en tirely pleated. You know the sort of pleated aklrts they are wearing nowadays ? The goods Is simply pinched together on the hip line , the pleat growing wider and wider toward the foot. "With this very chic little skirt was worn a short , tight-fitting coat of the richest biown velveteen , having two big rovers laid back to right and left over the bust and a wide collar standing up behind the cars. The lining of the collar and central facing of the revcry was done with red cloth to match that cf the skirt , while in her round NAVY ULUK AND SCAHLKT CLOTH COS- TUME. brown velveteen loquo nourished two red badges of courage In the form of a couple 'of bright , rod wings set llko these In the caps of Mercury. With n trio of cheerful cluster coral buttons offsetting the fronts of her jacket nnd dark brown dog ekln gloves , you can hardly think of anything at OUCH BO tidy without primness and so gaj without frivolity ns that pretty unit.

"Just about the first of the year , " remarked the nowcomcr , putting her feut en the fender , "I nm almost economical.

"Of course If you need something that will signify purely girlish charm and wintry ap propriateness I cannot recommend n model more enthusiastically than a dear little navy blue and scarlet cloth suit which a black- eyed miss , whoeo accent was delightfully foreign , wore at the rink only last night. To the knees Ler blue skirt was stitched back and front and then below that point It llarcd open to show how the Inside of the blue box pleats were lined with scarlet cloth. Her dark blue basque coat had Its whole front of scarlet cloth braided In dark blue and crossed by scarlet silk Huasar cords. A muff and boa of mink and a toque of the samu fur , Its crown entirely filled with belly , gave her the aspect of a Christmas fnlry , In consequence of which , added to her black eyes and her bewitching broken English , she skated with the men three deep about her. " IluyliiK " I'lirxo. "I wish , " volunteered Mrs. Van Knicker becker , In 11 momentary drop In the con versation , "that somebody would give me a new purse. My heart has gone out with no uncertain emotion of covetousncss toward these new suede change pockets in gray , soft fawn nnd black that are made quitu llko the small coin purses wo have been using for the past year , with a strap to slip over the fingers , but n button to hold the flap down In front. " "Something quite new , eh ? " Inquired the hostess , Interestedly. "The newest and smartest of the toilet trllles , " replied her friend. "Tho button In the front , you know , Is a little knob of sil ver with a small topaz , Mexican sliver or a moonstone set In the center and while I hung over the counter trying to dccldo be tween a 'fawn ' or pearl gray suede my eye aa caught by some equally smart and unlquo card cases. It Is the fashion Just now to carry a big card case , big as a writIng - Ing portfolio almost , and made of some rich , soft leather or 'beautiful old brocaded silk. Those of suede take my fancy Immensely and I may as well admit I bought ouc of the pearl gray kid stitched with gray silk , having two flaps held by silver buttons , In which amethyst are sunk. " "What a charm there Is any way In little things , " murmured Malsle , reflectively. "Now , handkerchiefs are my pitfalls , those delicate gossamer squares of white , with llowcrs inado from Inset bits ot colored mus lin nnd mere tracerlcn of fine embroidery done about the cdgo ot every pedal. They are the Irrcslstiblo attractions , particularly when every woman you know is collecting a set of violet or rosebud or Illy of the val ley handkerchiefs , and so small are some ot them that they can bo tucked In the palm of one's glove. " ' "Do you think they are quite so bcgull- tlpped arrow heads , have just the touch of barbaric beauty that appeals to mo nnd nre Infinitely more charming nnd fashionable at present than anything In gold , gun metal or Ing , though , " commented Mrs. Van Knicker becker , as she drew her furs about her , "as the jeweled arrow head-pins pins or the lovely wampum muff chains one of the most heartless Jewelers In town Is showing ? Those muff chains , dangling with wee Jewe4- sllver. " MAUY DEAX. COIIItTIXR OOM. 1'AUI/S XIUCKS. All I'p-SHHiiK" from DunU tit Dnvrn 1'roo.Inis < I'-iiuiifri'nifiit. . The Boer girl of the country districts of the South African republic "is able to go to town only once or twice a year , and then It Is to attend the Nnchtmaal , or com munion , which Is the chief festival ot these deeply religious people , " writes Howard C. Hlllegas In the Ladles' Home Journal. "Tho Journey to the town Is made with ox teams and may require a week's or a month's tlmo , but It Is always an epoch In a Boer girl's life , especially if she is about 1C , when she Is supposed to have attained the matrimonial age. Then some tall , ro bust Boer youth , whom she has met at former Nachtmanls , may summon enough courage to nsk her whether he may call nt her home nnd have nn 'up-sitting , ' which Is a sort of ultimatum before an ultimatum. If she consent the younpBocr will shortly afterward ride on horseback many miles across the plain to the girl's home , and will provo that he Is worthy of her love by 'st- ! tlng-up' nnd talking with her from sundown until break of day. For two young Boers to arrive nt this period of courtship Is equivalent to announcing the engagement , and then the prospective brliJo begins prepa ration for the wedding. * * "A wedding Is always an event of nlmo't national Importance aivl In really a mrst picturesque ceremony. The friends nnd rela tives may arrive a day or two ahead of time , according to the distance to bo traveled , and the Boer homestead becomes a most ani mated scene. Scores of ox teams are scat tered about the surrounding plain : negro scivuntH are bustling around ; guns are fired promiscuously whenever more guests arrive ; dancing , feasting and coffee-drinking are carried on In the cottage nnd everywhro around It ; Impromptu shooting matches ntul horse races nro decided and Joy Is un- conflned. After the- ceremony and aft'r all the gurfits have klsseij the bride nnd brldo- pnom the wedding feast Is eaten , nnd then the guests upend the night lu dancing and playing games. It would be n breach of etiquette for any of the guests to depart before - fore the dawn , ami , Indeed , the fi'Jd'or'a music and the sound made by the dancing feet are often heard until noon of the fol lowing day. The wedding tour consists of a Journey to the cottage nnd farm which the husband has secured from his father and which adjoins the old homestead. " V.'OJIAX AT II0.11 IS.

Margaret Snngstcr writes in Collier's Weekly ns fol'ows ; Not shall a woman engage In business und enter into competition with men In n Held which they have made their own. Is the question which engages the practical mlnJ , but another and much more pertinent one , n question which vitally touches the woman at home. Only a few umoiif ; the ten tliouranJa of home-staying and homt'-lovlns American women expect to baeomu money-makers , while n majority of them may bo money- eovens or spenders , since the chief end for which most men toll Is to pour money Into tlio laps of tholr wives nnd daughters. With all our liberal education , our advanced mathematics , our long and laborious train ing , how much do most women really know about the management ot their personal resources - sources , about the keeping of aoaounts , and the relation of outgo to Income ? And If n vast number of us are unequal to the simplest sums In addition and substruction , when It comes to paying the weekly bills , , and running the hou o ecoin-niLally. and selecting iho dressmaker , and generally adorning cur stewardship in plain everyday nmi'ers. who : * to blame ? it we are merely grown-up children , with little outlook be yond that of the child who rnnnot bo con tented until his penny has been exchanged for n coveted sweet , arc \vo the ones In fault , or la thu fault to be laid at the door of n mistaken and soml-ldlottc system , under which wo and our forebears , mothfrs and grandmothers further back than wo can count , have resignedly or rcbelllously plodded along ? I Women are often In the anomalous position ! ' of Impecunious princesses. They nro ar- layctl In purple and line linen ; they drive In their carriages with state nnd splendor , coachman and footman correct nnd obsequi ous , every adjunct luxurious and complete. From the top of her dainty head to the too of her little foot the uomuti Is a vision of de light , and the laundress staggering homeward - ward with her heavy basket of freshly- washed and Ironed clothes views her with a wondering regard , In which admiration pre dominates and envy has no placo. As well might a miner's lamp envy n star In the firmament. Yet , the laundress la tin Indd- pendent and thrifty member of the body politic , whcso week's wages are her own , and the gentlewoman may be , and often la , n veritable pauper without a dollar to call her own. Her bills nro made , audited , paid , sometimes Indulgently , sometimes grudg ingly , and she has no control ot money. When she wants It she has to ask John ; and , alas for John , and for herself , there are days when she Etoopo to propitiate John with a ! particularly good dinner , or a specially fetcU- I in , ; costumq , or some unwonted tenderness , I so that ho may bo benignant , and stretch I forth the golden scepter nnd grant her what ever she requests.

" writes a Brooklyn woman to her mother , "Is simply a Joy. 1 have never lived HO" well or HO cheaply In all my life. I have learned a lot since I started housekescplng , but it cost something before I got the hang of things. I first rid myself of the horde of worthless Klllplno servants , who rob newcomers right and loft , and then Installed a Chinese cook for $12.50 a month , and the house runs Itself. "ThereIs not much- work In a tropical household , no stuffed furniture or carpets , no lace or other kind cf curtains , hut painted , flexible screens attached to the wln- do ys. Everything is on one floor , the furni ture Is rattan bamboo and the kitchen uten sils are simplicity itself. The climate is healthful , although the sanitary conditions are extremely bad.Ve are all falling Into the lethargic condition which seems the chronic state ot the natives. I take long naps all the afternoon. At 7 o'clock we dine. There Is not much calling In the evening , as the curfew Is still In force , clearing the streets at 8:30 : p. m. The evenings nre per fect , but we got sieopy and are usually In bed by 9 o'clock. "Fruits grow here in great abundance. The bananas are the mcst delicious to bo found anywhere. This fruit is a great boon to the poor people , supplying them with an exceedingly nutritious article ot food at little cost. Other fruits of the Islands are the ate ( the cinnamon apple ot the French colonies ) , the mangostecn , the mango , the pineapple , the tamarind , the orange , the lemon , the jack , the jujube , the llchti ( the king ot fruits , according to the Chinese ) , the plum , the chicomamey , the bread fruit and the papaw. This last fruit is eaten like a lemon nnd is said to act as an efficacious digestive. "When I sec the India rubber trees , twenty-five feet or more in height , growing In the yards here , their stiff , brilliant green leaves glistening In the sun , I laugh to think of the little box plants we used to keep in on. ' windows at home In the winter , beI I caupo they werethe only growing thing that' ' could stand the united attack of dust , neglect and coal gas. I "Ulco is the staple food of the Filipinos , j Sixty pounds of rlco nt 2 cents a pound is all the fee < l a servant asks for. Sweet potatoes - ' toes , a kind of yam , the ground nut and gourds are pretty generally grown , as well as occasionally peas , potatoes and in the higher regions even wheat. Hesides the cul- ' tlviitlon of rice , the Tagals are great fishers - ' ers and keep cattle , swine and vast numbers of poultry. The latter run around under the houses , which stand up four or five feet from the ground nnd are latticed off with split bamboo. "I never get tired watching the simple primitive methods of Filipino housekeeping , for their processes arc carried en before the eves of all men. The men themselves do the largest part of tlm hard work , while the women perch on this I'uWor-lIko steps that lead Into their houncs and look on. All the reeking IB done out of doors nnd usually on the ground. Their little stoves or red clay are hardly ns lartrp as the Iron potn we have at home. One Elile la bent down llko n prim itive brnrth nnd the lire Is kept going by long tubes which the men blow through In stead of using bellows. On this funny little npolcwy for n htovo they cook their rlco or chocolfite. stirring the latter with carved wtlcltE , which they twirl between their p.ilmn to keep the beverage from stinking. Often they do not use the Btove nt all , but make n firn light on the ground , belvrcn two stones , A uis.vr Icang Tutu ' , . u "H , ' ' < M ! - muibc theater with me without a chaperone ?

"When the men chop kindling they sit down on thPlr heels Just s.i the Japanese do ntul. In fact , nearly all their work U done In this same fashion. When their simple culinary riles are finished they gather around their pot of rice and , dipping In their tdcndor brown fingers , help themselves with out the formality of knives , forks , spoons or chopsticks. Dinner concluded , hands and dishes nro washed In the shallow tub which stands at every door poap , dishcloth and ( llshtowel being nil made of gogo , the bark of a species of vino.peculiar to the Islands.

A good-natured lot of brldo.3 nnd grooms , too , they were. OHO couple , who registered from Kentucky , arrived In Washington curly in the week , after n most unhappy journey.

As soon as they entered the ear they saw mi unmistakably tcnlrlc pass over the countenances of all the other passengers. After they were seated the smirk grew to what seemed to them enormous proportions. 1H < spoke to her and they got up and went , Into the next car. To their utter dlscomfl- i turn the saaio thing occurred. There was no mistake they were unquestionably the objecto nf much suppressed mirth. Even the conductor showed evidences of the strain upon him to control his amusement. Before many stations had been paused the direct cause leaked out. Every passenger on the train had been ghen a card. It was about llvo Inohcs by three and neatly cu- graveO. It read : "This will introduce to you Dr. and Mrs. L. C. Moore. They were married tbti afternoon. Any attention you may show thcoi will bo greatly appreciated by the citizens of , Kentucky. " Cin cinnati , their goal of hope , was not far dis tant. They were to change cars there and get on the Chesapeake & Ohio road. They entered the c-lecpcr baldly aiid with confi dence. The first glance at the passengers who were already in their seats shii.vcil them thu audacious cards had mysteriousv ! preceded them. The bride only regained her composure after they reached the Kalclgb. and she found there were fifteen other brides In the hotel. The citizens between \Vnugh Chapel and the Baltimore & Ohia station on Satur day ovt-ning were treated to a spectacle which delighted the soul of the small boy. Them wan an exclusive ) and Interesting llt- tlu wedding at the parscnngo about 7:30. : During the ceremony , \\hllo the carriages were waiting , some young friends of the ccuplo hastily wove n network of broad white ribbons across the bak ct the car- riagci from Hide to side , hi the mkldlo was securely fastened n hugo bunch of white Mower.

Many frlcnrtr , otcod around and the happy pair lingered for congratulations nnd good-byes. Suddenly the bes-t man discovered that It lacked just novcn oilnutcs of the train tlts.o.
