As many sweet scents cling to th gar
ments of fashionable women aa vera aver
breathed by tha disconsolate Pari at th
ate of Paradise. . Tbea do not ail cling at
one time, but perfume delicately suited
to different occasions are worn by tha up-to-dat
woman who doee not aelect from
among tha reigning favorllea aa capecla
ana for tba seaeoa. Hence, It la one more
conaldored quite the thing to. make holi
day gifts of perfumery.
There are at Watt half a doses perfumea
M taahiocabt that It would be bard to tell
which la tha must popular. These resolve
themselves Into two classes one breathing
tha odors of Virions swt-et violets; tha
other representing perfumea whoa dis
tinguishing fragrance no one cms tell, but
which auKgest sandalwood and other spicy
wood odors of tha Or.ent. aiU.lri with the
perfumes of many fluera In theia the
Oriental fragrance alone Is distinctive, and
so o;.e can tall exactly ut that ta.
It la U.e t-1 of th day tn have .vt.. t
r7rt(poBd to perfumes. Almost every
fashionable extract baa its corresponding
sachet powder of nearly. If not quite, tha
same dor, and tba society womaa baa her
glass tubes of tablets, made of a concen
tration of the perfume which aha affects,
to be dissolved In her bath.
Besides tha reigning favorites, prepara
tions of clover are In rogue and a delicate
aroma of old Spanish leather as well as
an extract of tha perfume of orchids.
Tha up-to-date woman has a limited num
ber of sachets. These are made In many
sty lee and serve many purposes la this
season of perfumed luxury, and the devotee
of perfumery can well understand bow one
woman earns a livelihood by making lltt'.e
sachets Ilka small sticks of red and white
peppermint candy. Aa almost every wo
man la now enamored of the delicate scents.
Christmas gifts of sachets are entirely ap
propriate. Every fad has Its representative la soma
sachet. The ping-pong enthusiast has
aachet bags gathered around tha Invisible
neck of a ping-pong ball, which la gtvea a
Chinese cant of countenance by a few deft
lints of ink and a bit of black oourtplaater
on top of the bead.
Wooi.ru iio love OrienUJ fl.ions have
their sa.i.c-t bags luiii tf battel ti'itvi
Chinese silk, with pretty UtUs Ja panes
dolls' beads peeping above tha gathering
string. They patroniss richly decorated
knitted or beaded Japanese bags, with
pointed ends and a drawing cord or ribbon,
and also strings of highly perfumed beads
made from tha seed of sandalwood.
Ia tha shaping of her sachets, woman
shows much of bar artistic sens In form
and color, but much mors her sentimental
nature, fur ah seems Invariably to turn to
hearts. No matter how many bags and
cases of divers shapes of silk, satin and
lac diapers sweet perfumea among her
linen closets snd chiffonier drawers, she al
ways possesses a dainty collect'on of dull
cat ly tinted hearts atuffed with cotton and
sachet powder and adorned with ribbon
bows. Then she wears la limitation of the
Paris fad in the front of her corset, and
the soft glow of a pink heart to often sees
through thin envelopments of lingerie.
Another style of heart affected by the
woman of fashion la made of decorated
pasteboard with a center of wood closely
rapped with folds of paper. The whole
thing Is permeated with perfume and wrap
ped about with yards upon yards of narrow
perfumed ribbon, which la used to run
through and decorate Cat underwear, and
wLUa never luoes Its delicate fragr.
With all her fads and fancies and their
accompanying sachet forma the college girl
la almost sure to toss out a lot of perfumed
hearts, decorated with flowers or silken
fruit and bunches of ribbon, when aha goes
In search of her lace-trlmmed and ribbon
garnished underwear.
The society girl, who has left her college
daya behind her. deftly fastens a puff ball
at perfumed sachet powder In the center of
a rose-colored Japanese silk handkerchief,
embroidered around the edges In many
tinted Cowers. A ribbon la tied around tha
middle and the ends of the handkerchief
fall loose. Whil the handkerchief may It
either Lao bordered or of silk. Its purpose
Is tha asm to be worn tucked In the
sleeve, according to the latest Paris mode. -
When man sees a group of girls cro
cheting busily through skeins of radiantly
tinted silk, he may safely eonclud that
they are mating sachet bags of aa open,
pretty mean that will be fitted up with
padded bottoms of silk and wadding and
aachet powder, and draw-strings of rib
bon to match the silk. Thesa bags will
stretch to meet the requirements of quits
a number of dainty silken hoae, and they
msy also be employed to hold handker
chief a.
There Is no limit to the elaborateness
and beauty of the handkerchief sachets
which can be mad aa holiday gifts to
friends who ars. half afraid to us the
fragile things for fear of spoiling them.
A popular handkerchief ease Is mad of a
squar piece of sllk-oovsred wadding filled
with scented powder. Over this Is folded
a lace-bur de red or silk embroidered hand
kerchief with th corners meeting in the
canter, where thrq of them are fastened
together with ribbon bws, and th fourth
arranged so aa to be turned back when
handkerchiefs are Inserted or taken out.
Not only are. sachets of wadding, pret
tily covered, stretched from one end of a
clothes closet to another, but dainty little
sachets are often faatened In th garments
themselves. For this purpose are sold lit
tle metal-bound charms and hearts with
pins attached fa them, which soms peopls
fancy are to be worn aa ornaments.
Tbs favorite sachet smoog French women
Is veUvert, a delightful Oriental plant
which grows la many Americas, gardens.
Th roots may be bought anywhere and
put np In bunches, but those who are for
tunat enough to possess plants of their
own wash and dry tha fibrous roots snd
sprinkle them In their linen shelves be
sides lining sachst cases with them. No
fragrance Is mora delicate or lastliijf, an)
now that Oriental odors are mingled with
up-to-dat perfumes, th simple, yet de
licious retivert is mora than fashionable.

Rumors ars renewed that women who
bang up their stockings this year will find
crinolines In them. We don't believe It.
It Is explained, by the way, that th
crinoline now prescribed Is not th old hoop
aktrt around th rim of which our civil war
was fought, but a modified Cxtur having
similar Intentions and analogous results.
Modified or not, crinoline won't do. Th
old hoop skk-t was on of th moat lm
periahable ef manufactured commodities. It
could be discarded but not destroyed. From
th cloaet It went to th garret, and from
th garret to th aah heap, and from th
ash heap to th next place. But it newer
perUbed; and finally It waa picked up and
hung on a fence poet to get It out of th
way. Oh. no! Let ua not have crinoline

th relief that w expect to get from th
tunnel. There are those already who main
tain that th true solution of th rapid
transit problem In New York Is to forbid
women to rid In th street cars. If crino
line came, this arrogant suggestion might
find serious support. For, of course, if
once th csrrlag ladles adopted It, and tba
thing was fairly accepted as ths mode, all
womankind would wear it, and In a short
time a modest woman would not feel decent
without It. Th chief end of fashion la not
adornment, or 'ths cultivation of beauty, or
anything of that sort. ' It Is ths promotion
of trade. The design Is to make all women
who can possibly afford It throw aside, at
least ones a year, all th clothes they owa
and buy new ones. It Is realised, when this
winter's fashions make last winter's rai
ment look so conspicuously out of date, thst
no sensitive woman can wear her last win
