Weoaoau MR W.EI1MCD ALI BUT, wife t ff 1 of tie Turkish ambaaeaaor to lVi I th t'nl1 Btatea, In Washing ton coserves vne iwiu uuvmw. of hir native land and never appetira In company when men ar KtwtnL To a wemaa oorrpoadent of the New York World aha told about the customs of har countrywomen In aa en tertaining fashion: "I am not able to mingle very much dlploaiatia society," said Mine. &Ihined All, "because I cannot so where there are any men. But when the wife of the Italian ambassador asked me some weeks ago, to attend a luncheon where there would be only ladies, and (aid that all her men serv ants would be sent away for the occasion and only women employed to serve us, I was very glad to accept and very pleased to meet the ladles who were present. I am always glad to see ladles," she added. "Of course I went in my carriage and was heavily veiled. In Washington I wear a heavy veil all over lay face lnateai of the Turkish yashmak, which conceals the nose and lower race, bnt leaves the eyes exposed. The yaahmak, because it is not customary here, would attract attention, ' and that la what Turkish ladles wish to avoid." The madame said she was married at the are of 14. and did not know her hus band before the event. "I had never seen him," she said. "Customs are different lu Turkey than in America. The wife doe not see the husband until after the mar riage, lie does nut see her. But." she concluded, "the Turkish girl has the ad van ta-e. for she can see a photograph of the buMband that has been chosen for her. The young man cannot ate her photograph, aa Turkish women are never photographed. "Generally the youi g man's mother se lects a wife for him. She will say, when she knaws her ton wants to marry, 'Bo-and-80, daughter of such a paha, la a beautiful girl, bhe has black eyes, beautiful teeth. Her beltrht Is so much, her weight co much.' If the young man la (leased .with the de staUiiWn the tuoid of the youa wou.au Is asked by his parents." "And the girl has to marry hlmT" X in quired, "Oh, no," denied Mine. Slehmed, Quickly. "It is this way. When the young girl has finished her lessons her parents ask her If she wants to be married federally she says yes. But If sha says no, ail sometimes hap pens, she Is not coustralnud. When a de mand la made for her hand she is told that such a pasha seeks her hind and sha is permitted to sea his photograph." "There is not." Madame continued, "as tnuoh difference between the women of the Aat and those of Europe and America, as many persons Imagine. I have seen women la fcoth. continents wearing veils Quite as heay as any we wear. The yashmak, in deed, Soes not conceal the entire face as your vy!s do, and no Turkish woman la ever se K?uch disguised as as American woman go!fg automobiling." Bobh Bailf Planned. A woman who has been agTavated be yond reason says that some day the worm will turn; that kv that woman will refuse any longer to be ktnposed on by the plans ef men architects and will go to work to plan her own house. The low waahtubs and the sinks they have to bend down to, the dumb waiter in the hail Instead of in the kitchen, the utter depravity of the closets that are undtalr,,le in every re spect; these and other .things the wonvan architect will remedy. ' - BketcBi af Mrs. Tatt. Society in Washington Is au much In terested In who will be Mrs. Roosevelt's successor as Is the country at large In who will succeed ITealdent Roosevelt, and various are the conjectures regarding this important matter. "I am not anxious to vote for Tatt," said a Maine Yankee, Quoted by the Wash ington Herald. "Not that I have any ob jection to the Hon. William, but I certainly would like to have the privilege of voting for Mrs. Taft. "Now, there's a woman I I happened to have the privilege of crossing to the other aide with her once, and came to know hr as well as st aimer acquaintances generally know each oth r In the seven or eight days they are togtlher. Bhs Is about the best representative of the very best women In America that could be found, according to my notion: and If we can't have Mrs. Taft without Taft. why, I'll vote for William." Ail that this enthulastla son of the Fine Tree state said Is quite true. Mrs. Taft ia the exponent of all that is best In Ameri can womanhood. Bhe Is beautiful, grace ful, tactful, talented, clever, and would make an ideal "first lady." Moreover, she passed some time in the White House as the guest of one of the most accomplished hostesses who ever presided there Mrs, Hayes when she must have unconsciously assimilated soma of the charm that made the wife of Oeneral Grant's successor con spicuous among the women of her day. Mrs. Taft's father, John W. Herron, had been President Hayes' lifelong friend, and when Hayes was elected president was his law partner. To the Herron children Mr. Hayes was always "Uncle Rutherford;' Mrs. Hayes, "Aunt Lucy," It was under the most intimate and agreeable circum stances, therefore, that Helen Herron visited the White House one Christmas time, when she was a gay and pretty girl of 18, and It Is doubtful if sny future ex perience In that his tor lo mansion will equal her first one, even though fate places her there as Its mistress. "Aunt Lucy" did everything In her power to make the visit of her little friend a memorable one; and memorable it wll always remain. It Mrs. Taft should become the presiding genius of ths White House, It Is to be hoped that she 1 will Introduce some of the pleasant features that have made Mrs. Hayes regime there so sgreeably remembered the public after noon receptions, the informal gatherings la the evening, and the nightly late sup pers, when a regular banquet was spread, of which all who happened to be present beside the household were Invited to par take. Ceremony was banished for the , nonce, and this meal was one of the moat Informal and delightful of any of ths White House affairs, Mrs. Taft's favorite hobby, it ene may call tt by as undignified name. Is musla. It baa bean her llfework, and every mo ment she could spars from her duties) as wife and mother has been given te per fecting herself much, many times as much as ths most accompliabed amstetus gen erally aohleve, the beautiful prices, the medals, vases and cups, exquisite In de sign snd beautifully wrought, that adorn her dining-room attest. For more than seven years Mrs. Taft was the president of the Cincinnati Bymphony orchestra, and for twice that period she was a hard working and enthulastla member of that body. But, despite this devotion to muslo, she has found the leisure to learn several languages, and besides reading and speak ing French, German and Spanish fluently, learned several of the Tagal dialects when she was in the Philippines, a fact that en deared her as much to the natives of those islands ss sny other. California, Teachers oa a Strike. The women members of the California Teachers' association struck for their rights at a recent meeting of the associa tion at Santa Crus. They asserted that al though they form seven-tenths of the mem bership and furnUhed most of Its funds hey have never had a proper place on the programs nor a fair representation in its councils. They point out that never once has a woman lecturer been brought from the east and that never Is a California woman placed on the program exc?iit as a singer or for Instrumental muslo. They further point out that thtre are several woman teachers in the state who compare favorably with the beat of the men, naming Miss Mary Roberts Coolidje and Mrs. Mary W. Oeorge as examples. They note that Margaret Schallenbarbr has been invited east this year to address tht New England Teaohers' , association convention at Washington, and that B?rtha Chapman has been appointed to a place cf honor by the University of Chicago. After setting forth their case the women teachers held a caucus and nominated Mrs. George and Mrs. Partridge for the ciuncll of education and Dr. Pelxotto of Berkeley for the board of directors. The three were elected by an overwhelming majority. Always Really Ltstoaade, There la nothing more refreshing on a hot day than a long drink ,of cool lemon ade, but however anxious the hostess "may be to servs this beverage. It la sometimes impossible to do so owing to the lack of necessary Ingredients. In tact, it Is for Just this xeaeun that ths syrup thai max be prepared by the following recipe Is one of the greatest of household conveniences. It Is dellolous, but what Is still more Impor tant It enables one to procure a supply of lemonade literally at a moment's notice, says the Delineator. Extract the Juice from a dozen lemons; grate the rind of six of the lemons and add it to the juice. Let the mixture stand for twelve hours or over night. In the morning make a thick syrup of granulated sugar and water, using about six pounds of (he nugar and just as little water as possible, as the syrup must be both' thick snd smooth. , When It Is cool strain the Jemon juice Into It; bottle In glass, being certa'n that the tops are se cure and air tight. In making lemonade with this syrup place a little crushed ice in the bottom of a tall glass; add one or two teaspoonfuls of the syrup, according to taste, and till with either carborated or plain water. This syrup may also be used success fully In making cakes, pies, puddings, cus tards, etc., being a most economical method of utilizing lemons aa It enables the 000k to obtain absolutely the full value of both sugar and fruit. Surely this Is a fact worthy of consideration by the economical housewife. Womaa Prise Winner. Miss Hilda Belcher has received the first prise of tuOO In the St rath more watercolor exhibition. The Strathmore is looked Upon as one of the most Important art competi tions of the yenr, and the struggle for the first prise Is always keen. Miss Belcher Is a native of Vermont and her mother was an artist of local reputation. Begin ning aa an Illustrator of magazine articles, she has done creditable work In several fields of art. A atalned glass window witch she designed Is one of the chief ornaments 'of s new church In Baltimore, while one of her first portraits took the scholarship In portrait painting at ths New York School of Art.

Miss May Perrlngton, now attending the Girls' Collegiate school In Los AsMes, lives a part of each year on her father's treat ranch, near Crater, ia Mono county. on the border of the Yoseraita park, and she Is the only girl within a radius of ' ninety miles. Hither every summer Uncle Sam sends a squadron of cavalry to guard the park, and the khakt-clad scouts havs voted this slim little maid the queen of the' whole Wide countryside.

Serious rivals of. silk sre cotton erepe drchlne, nun's veiling, detains and coarse net. Long, fancy Jackets, with long shoulder seams and large armholea, accompany tunic sklrta. y All shades of red are fashionable this spring, while yellow (especially old gold) Is eujoyliu some measure of vogue for evening wear. No evening dress Is modish nowadays unices it sparkles, and jet and silver seem to be the eatleat methods of effecting this in a fashionable way. Evening dress is almost monopolised by inspirations from Greek styles, these hav ing entirely taken the place of the dl rectoire and empire modes of previous yeara, For both house and street fashion has come out In favor ef the princess robe. For the avenue there Is a princess with long front panel that is admirably well suited to walking purposes. It la short and Uio s-UU front is beautifully, embroidered In soutache. The color is llglit and ths material a soft cloth. . ' The lingerie blouse almost always has the short sleeve. It Is much trimmed and is often made of nothing except two or three frills of lace, one failing over the other. With this very abbreviated sleeve the lingerie blouse Is completed. A little cost Is slipped on over this sleeve and a pair of long hand-worked silk gloves pulled up over the arms. The coat sleeves vary but the feminine world clings closely to the three-quarter sleeve. It is comfortable and It Is grace ful and moreover it gives one a chance to wear one's pretty gloves. If Is cut off well above the wrist and Is finished with a cuff, or with braiding, or with a mannish, button or two. Among the little things of dress ths Elisabethan ruffle satin ribbon la tak ing an easy lead. On closer Inspection one finds a considerable amount of skill expended on the shaping, although When donned the appearance Is that of an all round affal'. The ribbon loops, however. It appears, are mounted on a narrow and cleverly curved foundation, that allows the ruffle to be worn either with ths chou and ends at the back or on one side, as preferred. Chat A boat Woman.
