"If college women could be brought to realize the field both psychological and sociological opened up by domestic career they would not be so scornful of Its so-called 'limitations.' The trained mind Is better able to analyse the needs of home and study do-nestlo conditions than the un informed mind. "My plan, which will shortly be carried out In the new training school to be opened It is a pretty fancy. If there Is time for It. to make the ribbon flower in the form of a single blossom, as a pansy, wild rose, marigold, with a tiny sachet tucked away In the center of each. Guests retain the flowers as souvenirs. Where there Is nothing but cardboard on which to fall back novelties are still possible. A tiny easel cut from the board or from heavy paper which stands at the guest s cover and bears his name has an air of originality which Is very pleasing; In Washington , on October 19 by the Or wee palettes cut double, so as o stand Woman's Auxiliary of the National Baptist convention, and In our school here, Is to lift domestic science to the level of a profes sion. "The cook should study chemistry, physi ology and should know how disease Is pro duced and spread. I believe the maid should study architecture and know enough of sanitation to prevent Infeotlon in homes, and a nurse should not be Just a witless person whose sole duty Is to see that the baby docs not fall out of bed. She should have the elements of trained nurs ing and kindergarten teaching. She should be able to care for, restrain, teach and amuse her charges." Mrs. Lay ton does not think these re quirements excessive or far-fetched. She believes that the present dissolution of homes, on account of lack of adequate do le help, will lead to a new era in the ttnt girl history. Persona will realise that untrained and unskilled labor Is as unprofitable in the home as It Is In the fctory and will pay better prices for edu cated servants. The Octouer Bride. Why the June bride in song and story to the approximate exclusion of all other brides? alone, with little dabs of different color along the edge and the names of the com pany also In color, are extremely effective. Any shade desired can be made to stand upright or to hang over the water glass by the simple expedient of cutting It double. Cardboard cut In the shape of small, old-fashioned envelopes and shaded with a few necessary lines, addressed with the name of the guest, are very quaint and pretty. For a woman's luncheon fan shapes are easily done. Very attractive place cards for any spe cial festival are easily made by choosing some symbol of the season and cutting It out In heavy white paper or cardboard. Thus, a sheaf of wheat, an apple, or any fruit, with the name of the guest on it, Is appropriate for Thanksgiving. A holly leaf, an evergreen wreath, or Santa's Jolly old features In profile for Christmas. Very little skill In designing Is necessary, as an advertisement picture or anything of the kind can, be used as a pattern, and no shading or color whatever Is required. Another extremely successful plan de vised by a hostess about to entertain peo ple who did not know each other very well was an original combination of favors and place cards. She chose for each expected guest a little Not that we have anything whatsoever io-cent favor, the right name of which when to say that is not all In praise of her guessed began with the same letter as that bless her! and warmly appreciative, of 0f the guest to occupy that particular course; but why, Inquires the Washington cover.

The plain, un varnished truth Is, June la a pretty lazy, hazy, languid month, and while It la upon us It Is something of a bore. Marriages scheduled for June are largely products of February, March and April speculation. Distance lends enchantment to the June time, as brutal as a recital of the facts may seem to those of ardently sentimental persuasion. Anticipating June la an un alloyed, sweet delight; realising It Is a painful awakening. We doubt not that James Russell Lowell was siting tight by a, cheerful winter fire when he wrote: O what Is so rare as a day ln JuneT Then, If ever, eome perfect days. But October! There Is a different story. Weddings planned for that month are wisely conceived and all but Invariably happy in' every circumstance. The golden rod, the chrysanthemum, the yellow and gold and red of the changing leaves of the forests these furnish a setting for the picture such as ne'er was dreamed of In the sixth month's poor philosophy. October one dearly loves to be alive; ln June one merely does not wish to die. We sing the October bridal May all that life holds sacred and most dear be hers I Grand the Inspiration that prompts her to choose October for her wedding day Oc tober, when Earth Is all In splendor drest; Queenly fair, she sits at rest. While the deep, delicious day Dreams its happy Ufa away. names. Flowers, comlo new-art animals, or almost any Inexpensive trifle could be so used. Orlclaat riaco Cards. A dainty name card that ean be made at home for a woman's luncheon or formal dinner Is easily gotten np as follows: ' short length of pliable wire Is twisted Into the shape of a circle or an ellipse and fastened by doubling the ends over and twisting them neatly down. A spray of smllax or. prettier still, of some tiny flower is then twisted around the wire in and out until the circle Is covered and a miniature floral wreath is formed. A tinv card border, with a narrow silver Women Writers In Fraucs. Of the 23,000.000 women In France a pa tient statistician has discovered that 8,000 use the pen more or less profitably. Of these 1.6O0 write novels, (00 school books, 100 poetry and the remainder are miscel laneous writers, of whom 800 are Journal ists. Fifteen hundred belong to the French Society of Authors and sixty to the Society of Dramatlo Authors, but very few French plays are signed by women. Of the 800 who contribute to the news papers, only twenty write' on other topics than fashion. One of the latter, the Mar quis Guy da Bolshebert, It is curious to note, is an authority on military matters. She Is, by the way, better known as the novelist Manle Anne de Bovet Some fifteen years ago there were only about six women ln French Journalism, and If they have Increased It Is not because they have found the path easy for them every where. There are among them women with brains that are quasi masculine, who have shown their power to surmount opposition. The moat gifted woman writer In France today Is Daniel Lesuerr, who la now vice president of the Society of Authors. An other very clever woman writer la Pierre Coulevaln (they nearly all take masculine pseudonyms), whose pictures of cosmo politan life, and especially of American manners though she has never been In America have earned for her very warm praise. Another woman who Is as bright and clever as she Is modest is the Journalist Jane MIsme, who is at the head of the feminist progressive organization, while Paris' latest dally newspaper, Les Nou velles, a very serious and sober organ. Is directed by Mme. Marguerite Durand, who was formerly associated with Severlne ln either as a means of livelihood or an as suagement of sorrow? What Is there In the making and selling of hats and rib bons that Is so soothing? No one can doubt that millinery Is a panacea, else so many disillusioned wives of the upper classes would not occupy themselves with It. One of the latest to engage ln it Is Mrs. Le Galltenne. She has found her errant husband difficult so gossip says and no one can doubt that as a house mate he might be quite unsatisfactory, and therefore Mrs. Lie Galllenna finds her self happier to live apart from him. She Is reported to be on good terms with her husband, but with distance her regard grows greater. She says he Is a poet and an artist, "one of those men on whom there Is no counting." One would gather that from a very slight knowledge of his slender output. So she has opened a mil linery shop in Paris. Yet Parisian mil liners are said to be the finest. That may be, but Mrs. Galtlenne made a regular find In Brussels. When the average woman reflects that "tasteful hats" are offered for sale at a dollar apiece In Brussels she can see that Mrs. La Oalllenne would In deed have been a simpleton to let such an opportunity escsps her. She saw her way to a good living at once, contracted with the milliner to furnish her with any num ber' of such hats, hired a shop In Paris, offered her dollar hata for a handsome advance ln price, with the agTeeable re sult that she presently found herself coin ing money. Her customers, so the San Francisco Argonaut says, are very select those refined women who would think It disgraceful to be referred to ln news papers as "prominent" and whose Idea of dressing Is to be "Inconspicuous." No Hailng ml Bryn Mawr. In her address at the beginning of the fall term at Bryn Mawr, Miss M. Carey Thomas, the president, said, In jfart: "The year la marked out for me from other years by the decision of the students of the college, through their self-government association, to do sway with what has been a blot on the fair escutcheon of Bryn Mawr and give up once and for all the silly and ungenerous practice of teas ing, embarrassing and hectoring the younger and tnexperlenoed students. However slight this hectoring may have been. It was uncivilized and barbarous. This practice, which had come to prevail only ln recent yeara at Bryn Mawr It did not exist In the earlier years of the college has prevented my Idealizing the sophomore class as I should like to." She Could Lecture, Too. The Women's Republican club of Denver has nominated Mrs. Dewey C. Bailey as Its candidate for congress next year. Mrs. Bailey does not expect to have to serve, however, as she does not think the repub lican men will Indorse the nomination. She Is an excellent speaker and Is said to be a typical western woman, with tact and resourcefulness that many men congress men might envy. She Is president of the Women's club of Denver, and the wife of the United States marshal of Colorado. It Is said that any woman elected to congress will be able to name her own price from the lecture bureaus, which would gladly engage her. rfiteaii mWmsSmm9Mm tMmWfWihttmi r EIa!W i in ..1,1 v or gilt border, with the name of the guest that feminist paper, La Fronde-ill-starred written on It la attached to the little wreath, because It came before Its time.

Royal In effect is a gown made entirely or cioin oi goia covered with lace of the palest tan shade, sparsely embroidered with gold threads. White fox is the fur beloved by the young girl, and as a novelty this season cord and tassel trimming in white silk for both muff and boa has made Its appear ance. The fancy for jetted and beaded effects of all kinds has led to the introduction of the umbrella with d'rectotre handle fashioned with a small caboohon of Jet on the top. Jabots are shown ln Chantllly and Span ish black lace and Jabot and stock com bined of frilled white maline over black, while the transparent stocks of net and chiffon are set off with artistic touches of embroidery. Blaok chiffon broadcloth was used to make a handsome draped gown which had little to relieve Its severity save a row of slashes bound with blaok satin, which opened to reveal a band of satin in bril liant Persian colorings. The slashes ap peared on both bodice and skirt. The marabout scarf has a rival this season in the scarf of chiffon, crepe, moussellne, satin or velvet edged with marabout. On the pelerine order are shoul der wraps of satin ln white and bright colorings bordered with black or brown, marabout. For the tailored shirt waist are seen short ascot ties of white linen, some em broidered heavily, others showing, the daintiest of French stitching, all In white. A touch of color Is also seen on ascot for the school girl, lavender and rose being the tints most ln evidence. Velvet Is extensively employed for street suits. Usually it is some dark, plain shade, but occasionally a novelty velvet and an old favorite brocaded velvet are seen. Of this class is a three-piece suit, ln which the princess gowns is of black velvet, thickly sprinkled with white dots, while the coat Is of plain black velvet lined with the dotted. Mourning neckwear Is mors varied and effective this season than for some time past. Stocks, ascots, Jabots and turnovers appear In a variety of suitable material either all black or black and white. For Instance, a smart blaok moire ascot Is shown with a white linen stock and a turnover of black Ottoman silk finishes a stock of -white pique. Again turnover col lars and puffs of white linen are edged with a narrow band of black and with deeper cuffs is a set of hemstitched white linen showing large French knots ln blaok. -Chats Aboat Wornea, Miss Margaret W. Bartlett and Mls Louise L. Hartlett of Hartford, Conn., have left for China, where they will become teachers In the family of Liang Tus Ten, acting president of the Chinese Bureau el Foreign Affairs. Miss Elizabeth Ooldsteln, who has Just been appointed sanitary inspector In Boston, Is the first woman to hold such an office ln flew Knglhnd, and excepting Jane Addams the only one in this country. Mica Ooldsteln had been engaged in set tlement work for several years before receiving her appointment. Mrs, Irving Parker Mills, who ran for school director at Upper Montclalr, N. J., was defeated ln the primaries, her op ponent, a teacher at Columbia, winning. For months Mrs. Mills has been eleotlnn erlng and most of the women were with her, but the men voted against her. She can run Independently, however, if she wants to. Miss Ruhama Ckldmore, who was re cently re-elected foreign secretary of the United States Geographical society, has held that office for twenty years. hha represented the society at the International congress held In London in 1897, on which ' occasion she assisted the late Baroness Burdett-Coutts In receiving the members of the congress at a garden party. Mrs. Charles Hanrotln of Chicago, speak ing to the Woman's Trade Union league at the national convention, said that "even today the larger number of women workers are unorganized, and many have retained a prejudice against such forms of organiza tion. Women are, however, rapidly learn ing the potency of united effort, it Is effective In education and ln philanthropy, why not even more so ln economics which is far more concrete and visible?" Those women who do not believe In the Woman's Trade Union league should ponder over the report of Dr. Devlne in "The Pittsburg Survey," ln which he sought to convey some idea of the reuse of poverty and degeneracy of the Pitts burg workers. The third chief cause, he says, "Is still tower wages for women, who receive, for example, ln one of tho metal trades In which the proportion of women Is great enough to be menacing, one-halt as much as unorganised men in the same shop and one-third as much aa men in the union. And this fact Is true of every great city In our country wherever 1 wgtuen are unorganised."''

Little furs will not do for the smartly dressed woman this winter. Her neck furs have swelled In stze and her muffs, already large, have gone gay(y on Increasing tn size to the verge of caricature. Indeed, they often topple over that same verge, and some of the extreme models, though beautiful as specimens of fur and furriers' skill, are absurd as dress accessories. The most marked tendency In neck furs is the widening Into scarf and shawl one sees, too, two short haired furs use.' together. Thus a wide soft sCarf of chin chilla may have a wide border or severau narrow bands of sable or mink (and sur prisingly charming In color the soft brown and gray appear) or blue fox may be com bined with ermine. Unless cleverly man aged these combinations are far from suc cessful, one fur detracting from the ef- fill bLm, 1 1 mm M I U7VU , J UJI brimmed hat of velvet, silk, felt, beaver or even of lace, net or metallic tissue. There are some turbans entirely of fox, put they are In the minority. Turbans on the Cossack order, with the lower part pf fox, a draped crown of velvet and a trimming of stiff egret or other brush, like feather, are smart with fox neck fur and muff, and a wide brimmed velvet hat trimmed solely by a foxsktn draped round the crown la also good. The tur ban of the sketch which accompanied a Set of black pointed fox was a chlo model with draped crown of dull silver lace and cockade ln several shades of green velvet In the shorter hair furs more liberty Is allowed the milliners, and sable, mink, ermine, chinchilla and breitchwans seal, etc., are used not only for trimming but for crowns, brims or whole hats. The Henry IV., and Henry II., lines In which Carller delights, are made up with fur1, crown of fur and brim of silk or vel vet, very narrow on the right side and turned up sharply against the crown on the left side. Crowns of fur, with soft draped brims of velvet, tulle, etc., make smart heavy turbans, setting low on the bead, as do all these turbans. A lovely set ln mink had a little cape of mink brown lace over which the mink pelts dropped, the skin set closely to gether around the top, but parting to show the lace with the shoulder flare. The muff was made m the same fashion and the turban had Its brim of nvnk and its draped crown of velvet the same color. Fur and velvet or fur and satin are often combined in muff and stole, as well as In the hat, the fox and satin set which la pictured on this page giving an Idea of the sort of effect achieve ln this line. Even more attractive than the camblna tlon sets are some of the exquisite sets all In rare fur. We have seen one of these whose price . was monumental, but justi fied by the beauty of the furs. Fine Rus sian sable was the fur a fact that alone explains the thousands asked for the set. A very wide straight stole, soft and easily draped as velvet, was meant to be draped softly around the shoulders, fall ing over the sleeve quite to the elbow and reaching almost to the floor in front. It wa lined with self-oolor brown chiffon and a little dull gold lace mingled with the ' chiffon frills which faced the edges. An enormous flat pillow muff, lined, showing a little of the chiffon and gold facing In Its openings, was untrimmed, and a hat or turban of the sable with low, wide, round crown arid soft narrow brim drooping all around, was untrimmed save for a white aigrette at the left front This hat sat very low, like the sultan's tur bans, quite concealing the hair save over temples and ears and a glimpse of fringe or wave above the brows. A similar set In chinchilla was turned out by the same maker and lined with soft amethyst chiffon and dull silver lace. Costumes trimmed In fur and with neck fur, muff and hat to match, are the verv height of the mode, and eharmlng things are done with the Idea. Often a separata neck fur Is done away with and there Is a big fur collar on the costume coat. Cuffs of the fur are added, and a wide band or several narrow bands on the skirt. A muff and hat match the costume In fur and color scheme.

The chic stole now does not He, flatly on the shoulders; it drapes, suggesting, however faintly, the shawl lines which are having so great vogue. , These shapes, especially when carried to extremes, are not generally becoming, the effect they produce being a thickening and shortening of torso, but a tall, slender woman can wear a draped stole or fur mantilla gracefully and well, and all modes seem made solely for the benefit of the slim woman. ' Luckily, good furs always look well, 'even if they are not built up on the very latest lines, and well dressed women will tran quilly wear their sables and marten and fox, etc., ln last year's shapes. For that matter the fox furs, always popular and beautiful, do not lend themselves to draped effects and, save for occasional models widened by the addition of another pelt, are on about the same Hues as those to which we have become accustomed. Much fox will be worn, Paris having pro nounced emphatically In favor of the blue fox and Bllver fox. while the white aad black fox and a new foxskin dyed a lovely soft taupe brown are already selling rapidly.
