nain Mrs. Vnn Knickerbocker solemnly na

"I am sorry to henr that , " twittered
MclBlc from her end of the lablu. where
she sat picking daintily all the bits of
muchroom from her patte of chicken. "The
present fashlotiH suit IMC entirely , and to
my eyes the modern skirt does moro to make
Btout women appear slender , to transform
anRulnr women Into graglpus sylph ? nijd to
Rlvo height to the short anil dignity to the
tall. Added to all these virtues , there never
was a time llko thn present for ultlllzlng
odds and trifles of fur 'and embroidery In
the make-up of really attractlvo and useful
llttlo waists.
"Von would all , 1 am sure , open your

Lust week , fur example. 1 was billed to reail
n. paper before our every oilier U'ciitippday
morning with Shaknspcaro. It's a club , you
knew , anil wo are profoundly studying the
tragedies this winter. Now. It IH easy
enough 1 find to write a paper on the politi

T/nrn a dozen times this season. One must

fitlcnllon of the audience , and command their

"Well , 1 bent my whole energies to the
ovolutlon of a feature for wear , not only
Avhcn I am hostess for thu club , but when
obliged to look my best on days at home ,
nt the theater and even at the opera when
a decollete frorH Is not necessary. The foun
dation of my achievement Is any one of my
Bln-plo skirts ranging from a white silk
ono to a pretty cloth thing In thn popular
shade of turquoise blue. My waist Is matlo
of cloth , cream white and ttttrd in to the
figure , not by darts , but the new French
fat'hlon of drawing down and stitching Hat ,
In tiny tuckd converging to the belt , all Iho
fullness about the waist line nt back and
front.

faced with red silk and edged with gilt

are the prevailing motifs. A four-ln-band
of red velvet runs about the base of the col
lar , knots under the chin and Its long ends
imss down In the waist line under a suries
of flvo litt.lo white cloth straps that fasten
over the bust with glbb buttons. Xow , for
thn remarkable Inexpcnsivcness of this
charming waist I really deuorve no crc'llt ,
for my dressmaker did it all out of bits left

my paper on Rome went off beautifully. "

"Malsle , you area genius , " sighed Mrs.
Van Knickerbocker with sincerity. "You
utronK-nilmled women so often are , and I
will say It for the advanced woman that
some of them can dress with amazing Insto.
Now , there Is Dr. firaec Pockham Murray.
In spite of the- fact that she has an ofllce
full of patlentH every day , when her afler-
noon-nt-bomo was to be celebrated last
week she nlood up In the social exactions of
life In a charming cream Liberty satin gown
that wao a Just cause for envy. Her skirt
was simple , had a mere relieving fold about
the bottom and the waist , Jalil In the most
curious and Interesting nerics of pleats ,
tthuwcil beneath each pleat a merely suggested -
ge-stod line of turqucise blue. "
"Oharl'nlng , " murmured the hostess.
"Simplicity 1st with many women the order
of thu day now and in spite of every tempta

Ono of the first women in this country to
make experiments In chemistry collected
ga&cs In bottles and used a wiiterpall as
a-trough , teaching the district school be
tween times. Later , as special favor , she
was admitted to the laboratory of a pro-
fctFor , who favored her appeal In order that
she might rehearse his lessons , step by
stop , for the advantage of n brother , who
v.-as blind. This brother was Edward Liv
ingston Youmans , the eminent writer , lec
turer and slmpllfier of science for the people.
Ho attributed much of his success to hl3
sli.ter's apt explanations and untiring de
votion.
This was all more than forty years ago.
Since that t'mc scores of women have mas
tered chemistry in its various branches
and put that knowledge to use for their
own benefit and not their brothers. Some
have taken special university courses. It
being fifteen years now since the more ,
liberally constituted universities extended
their privileges to women. Other women
chemists picked up their Information by
hand-to-hand contact with the work In
chemists' shops and professors' laboratories ,
having no diploma , other thali efficiency and
practical service.
Some women are chemists by association ,
their fathers or brothers having been long
Identified with business founded cm chemical
processes and they In turn having famll-

Inrlzr-J themselves with the work whcu
occasion demanded. The woman who lien
llvo flourishing dyeing shops In a big city
Is one of' them ; also tlin women who are
j makers and bottlers of mineral and medic
inal waters , a half dozen of whom may bn
cited , the woman who. conducts a large ,
elder and vinegar mill and her prosperous
compeer ho excels In pleklw and pro-
selves made by her o\vn recipes , ewrei
foimulas that hnvo dcuuciulrd to her through
j generations of plclilo makers. There are
I women as versed In thu confcctloner'u inys-
icriui an men are and who nro us quick to
adapt the now discoveries and facilities of
science to attaining unique results.

All thU can bo proved by making a tour
of the different business plant * , but a few
women are born experimenters and delight
In chemistry for He own sake. Tluue
analyze plants , metals , soils and compoundo
j with the BUIIIU rest that their sinter women
, fool for mutters purely personal. There la
| a New Orleans girl of this mental pattern
now taking an affer-dugre course In
laboratory work at Mtmmrd college. She
was a I'll , D. two years ago , but came back
thlw term with special Intent to study the
nature and properties of cotlpuseod and
cotioimeed all jn ( heir relation to farm
economy. This young scientist considers
agriculture as the most uoblu , useful and
universal of human purtiurtK. She was
reared among the cotton and sugarcane In
tercuts of Louisiana and Is devoting her-
spli1 to research and experiment In the mat
ter of cells and native chemical agcntH at
nn age when most girls Just freed from
college tasks and who have menus to pur-
sun their own bent are going In for gaiety
nnd social devotions.

them all In being able to carry out her con

without depending in the least on outside
help. Her conclusions as to the developing
of the pictures are absolutely "sure. Shu
studied chemistry with the cxprens Intent of
becoming an artist photographer and of , per

to the Improvement of the work.

U takes a lot of pluck and a good amount
of common sense to rescue three young
women from death by drowning , but pluck
nud common sense were not wanting durins
a recent accident on Long Island. It was a
matter of seconds only , nt least so far as
Mlrs Minnie Hlddlnk was concerned , sad
the others were nearer death than they
ever likely to be-usnln and escape.
Patchcgup mill pond , one of the largest
on Lous Island , was crowded with skatrrs.
They had been warned lo keep away fraa
the cast shore , ' where Ice cutters had bcsa
at work.
Agnes and Minnie Grundy and Mlnale
Hlddlnk neglected the warning. So long at
they skated singly the Ice was strong
enough to bear their weight , but when they
glided along three abreast , their arms In
terlocked , It gave way under them and they
were plunged Into the water.
Will Stlllman realized conditions. He or
dered the skaters to keep back and almost
In the name breath called for volunteer *
to form a liuman lifeline.
Men and boys threw off their coats , threw
themselves flat on the Ice and grasped each
other's heels. Stlllman found he could not
reach the young women and the Ice ws.c
sinking under Ills weight. He called to
George * Homan , who Is light and strong.
The latter pulled himself along the chain
until he was at the end.
Agnca Grundy can swim and fear had not
pantlyzed her mind. She not only kept
afloat herself , but grasped her sister's hair
and kept her above the water. She toM
Minnie Hlddlnk to hold onto thu Icr.
Hut the wits had been frightened out of
Mlrs Hlddlnk. She was unconscious be
fore Homan could reach her. Twice she
had gone down.
"Take out Minnie first , " said Agnea
Grimily. "We ere all right for n llttlo
time. "
Homan graeped Miss Hlddlnk's dress Just
as she was disappearing. Rtlllman called
to Agnc ( irnndy to take hold of Mlsa Hld-
dink's dress.
"Hani away on Ihe line ! " ho Hhoutcd.
Then those behind , where the Ice was
strong , tugged with all Ihelr might. The
human cllaln started backward. The strain
on Iloman was terrlllc. but he never let
go. nor did any ono else.
When the Ice grow firmer Agnes Grundy
hold cnto It , still supporting her sister ,
v.-lillo the line wa < drawn back with Miss
Hlddlnli In Homan'ri arms. She was wrap
ped In blankets brought from u nearby house-
and then the human line was pushed for
ward again for Mlnnlo Grundy and then for
Agnes.

Over Twenty Per Cent. Annually.

Per Cunt. During the Past Year.
THIS NEW TREATMENT

September 1st , IS ! ) ! ) .
IT CURES BY INHALATION.
Coughs , Colds. Asthma and Croup Cannot lix.'st where it is Used.
The two Illustrations nbovo show moro plainly' than words can express , the
wonderful change that .has been mudO'ln the .trpaljucnt , of respiratory diseases
during ihp past two ycais. Formerly , any sufferer from Catarrh , Asthma , Con
sumption or Bronchitis was at once placed under the. care of some physician
and dosed with all sorts of nauseating drugs and tonics. Kven as far back as
twenty-live years ago , the doctor seemed le , bo aware of Iho fact that In order lo
reach 'these diseases inhalation must be r.&ed , and experimented with atomizers ,
sprays nnd douches , .In the hope ot finding eonio germicide- which could bo forced
Into the bronchial tubes aid lungs. That nil these treatments , proved practically
useless is shown by the fact that , during the past twenty years the number ot
deaths from catarrh and consumption alone , has Increased from 8,000 to over
200,000 a year. The discovery that those terrible r.courgcs were germ diseases
did not lessen the death rate , for of all the germicides known to the profession
but one of them could bo Inhaled Into the lungs , and this. Chlorine Gas , wan
deadly poison. The others , carbolic acid , ammonia and crcosoto ( liquids ) must
touch the germs ihcmselvcH In order to destroy ; coiiKcqnontly , could not be
iis-ci1 with effect , as It Is absolutely Impossible ) for moisture In any form to enter
the bronchial tubes and lungs. The discovery of

made the cure of these diseases by inhalation possible ; without It there \\na no
way of reaching the germs , and up to the piescnt day
