Gossip About Women in Various Walks of Life
Great Field for Voan,
O THE! hundreds of poor restless
Women who worry and waste
precious energies striving after
some Imagined pleasure beyond
their reaoh, Mrs. Klla Wheeler
Wilcox points out the road lead
T
ing to practical peace and per
manent benefits. It Is the old but ever
new ambition, the unfailing glory of wom
anhood, the creating of a pleasing home.
Mrs. Wilcox says: ,
It may be said In reply that an attrac
tive home In these days necessitates an
outlay of money and that only those who
have large Incomes can enjoy such a spot.
But this la not the fact.
A real desire for such a home, a will
ingness to work for It, a determination to
possess It and a vary small outlay of money
iwlll create the home of beauty.
Ten cents will purchase any one of a
half dozen magazines containing practical
hints to women possessed of any taste re
garding the furnishing of simple rooms.
How much better spent are the 10 oents
and the hour devoted to reading and study
ing up on the subject of home decorations
than the hour passed In restless discontent,
or the perusal of exalting fiction or vicious
tales of scandal.
The Influence of a clean, orderly and
attractive borne on men and children la In
calculable. (
A pretty and orderly home Is a step
toward morality and religion.
One often hears women In miserable, d s
ordorly and Ill-kept homes talking of
tieaven.
But what are the characteristics of
heaven supposed to be?
Can one Imagine a topsy-turvy heaven?
"Would not the very first rule' of heaven
he order? And beauty and cleanliness
would be Indlspenslble.
If we did not find these things In heaven
I am sure we would complain that we had
been led there by false promises.
Every home should be a small heaven.
It should be made a spot toward which
the tired and hungry toller turns with
weet anticipations of rest, comfort and
satisfied longings. .
It should appeal to the eye, and to tho
heart and soul.
Does your home so appeal, dear hvdy?
Are your windows softly draped with
clean curtains, even if they are only of the
most Inexpensive stuff;-?
Is your table neat, and your couch com
fortable and clean, and is there a ru.f or
two on the well kept floor, and a soft rPr
hade over the glare of tha lamp? And is
your bed neat, and is there a clean towel
by the wash bowl?
Does the home invite or repel the weary
traveler?
Whatever else In life you cannot do, you
can make such a home if you will.
Perhaps you will say that you are so
unhappy because of the Indifferent hus
band, who la never at hme, that you have
Bo heart to keep things up.
But that la no excuse. It Is much more
romantic to bo miserable In attractive sur
roundings than In squalor und dirt.
Make yourself a charming little bower,
and then sit down and be mtserahlo If you
like.
Perhaps you will be so entertained by
your work in beautifying your house that
you will forget about belli miserable.
And perhaps your husband will forget to
be negligent.
Anyway, try the experiment.

Ntw Society of Womea.
It Is worth noting that the new society
of sponsors of the United States navy,
composed of the beautiful women who
from time to time in the last twenty years
have christened United Slate warships,
Is to be hereditary In Its membership aftor
the charter members have passed away.
There was not the slightest opposition to
the motion that the privilege of member
ship should descend to the first daughter
of each sponsor, and then to the first
daughter of the first daughter forever and
ever. The perpetuity of the society thus
seemed nicely settled when some one In
quired what would happen If a sponsor's
children were all boys. Here was an un
foreseen difficulty and how It will be over
come does nbt appear, for a motion that
the membership should be Inherited by an
eldest son, in case there were no girls In
the family, was promptly and emphatically
rejected. In any event, the society of
sponsors fills a long-felt want In this
country.
tore and Marriage Abroad.
The Ruropean man thinks he knows the
American girl, but he Judges her by the
girls of his own country and therefore en
tirely misunderstands her, says a writer In
Everybody's Magaulne. He cannot com
prehend the healthy nnromantic friend
ships that exist in America between boys
and girls, who see each other under aJl
sorts of informal circumstances and yet
need have no thought of love or sentiment.
He thinks the American girl has had long
experience In the ways of men, and that
she Is as well versed In the manner of
lovers as the experienced married flirts of
Parisian and Roman society. Used to men
she Is, but not to the sort of men she meets
for the first time abroad. She Is used to
the type of boy "that she has known nil
her life." She can fathom whnt he thinks
on pretty much any subject, and whether
he Is in love with her or not Is a matter
that she can decide without much danger
of mistake. Above all, the American youth
Is outspoken and frank. He ha no hidden
or ulterior motives; he spends little time
In dlscusslnir what he thinks. He likes best
to show his muscle and his skill In ath
letics, and the Intimacy between boys and
girls Is founded on doing things together,
riding, swimming, pluying tennis or coast
ing and skating; not on talking of Ideas.
Yet and this Is very Important and also
very difficult to express: In the minds of
American young men love and marriano
are svnonymous. To the Kuropean love Is
love und marriage Is marriage; the two
have not of necessity any connection.
Practically every woman over here must
make up her mind to accept her hurhand's
Infidelity. Not open infidelity; he will
never force the fai t upon your notice, and
If you choose to see no farther than you
are Intended to rep, you may remain where
Ignorance Is-soothing to your pride. The
Infidelity of your husband may be a hard
thing to determine, even If you try, because
all you ask of him, all the time that you
want him to spend with you, he gives you.
His evenings are invariably spent with yon,
whether you go out or slay at home. He
never neglects you In any way that you
ran take exception to. If he U having "an

woman who Is intimate at your house, and

give an inkling of the state of things.

here, a crown of straw and brim of
smoothly drawn pongee; or, perhaps, the
crown will be of the pongee and the brltn
of straw, or the crown and upper part of
the brim may be pongee-covered, while the
brim Is faced with fine straw.
Hats covered smoothly with satin or slik
have become familiar to us during the last
year, but the use of pongee is new ard
distinctively summery In suggestion. Scarfs
or bows of pongee and buckles covered with
ponged are also In evidence, and the pongee
frocks, which promise to be extensively
worn, will consort most amicably with such
features of the new millinery.
The hat of tulle or lace Is always a spring
and summer favorite, and some very fetch

left front and s'd und droorlng at the back,
are trimmed in masses of upsturding otrlc!t
plume egrets, the high crow n he nn en

ered bands or a folded scarf.
Several models from one Tarislan maker
show the crowns trimmed as in the largo
hat pictured here, overlapping loops of
velvet ribbon running from top to bottom
of the crown at Intirvuls of about f mr
Inches. From this same autocratic derign r

The crown was hic;h. but Its sharp outllm
was hidden by tho trimming, a comblnat on
of knots of light, silvery blue velvet ribboa
and little hunches of fri:U tiny peaches ex

The description sounds bizarre, but the
hat was by no means bizarre or con
spicuous, and the color scheme, thanks to
tho soft, fuzzy bloom over the mellow
peach tones was dellclously harmonious.

Heavy coats will be much worn with
light thin skirts, and It is considered de
cidedly smart to don a dress of silk mull,
In a pale tone of mustard or pink; and to
put on over It a ooat of heavy cloth, or of

are worn with the thinnest and finest of
gowns.
Many d rem. makers consider It yet more or
less of a mooted quostlon whether coats
for the spring season shall be long or short.
As a matter of fact, not of conjecture, the
coats that really typify the new season's
styles will be two-thirds or three-luarter

the points front, back or sides.
Embroidered waistcoats are worn by
women who liks to have something out
