Pennsylvania and Women-nuns: Keeper's

Which Would You Rather Bet—~Wouseu
Iron Working—Let In the Bun.
If short dresses are worn, there must
be a reform in the interests of womanh-
ness and grace. If long gowns obtain,
a reform must be instituted in favor of
health and cleanliness. When skirts ex-
pand, statesmeh shout , for a reform that
will secure snfilc' standing room for
the nation. Wh *y cling, the cry is
still reform for the sake of modesty. By
no ingenuity can fashion contrive a
platform that reform is not anxious to
knock from.beneath her.
A year or two ago popular reform took
the shape of a “business woman's dress,“
although why business women should be
any readier than anybody else to ticket
themselves by wearing a special style is
not apparent. If a woman has herself
and others to support, she has quite limi-
tations enough created by her circum-
stances not to submit to an artificial re-
striction in so personal a matter as that
of her wardrobe. The women most
publicly in favor of 9. reformed attire for
working women Were ladies who them-
selves had little to do except theorize in
their drawing rooms. It did not seem to
occur to them that their sisters less for-
tunately situated might object to adopt-
ing a class uniform which would accent
the difference between them and the
lilies of the field.
One of the oddest nmong the late
freaks of reform is the trousers conven-
tion at Chicago,” if the gathering togeth.
er of a few coquettish experimenters in
costume could have any appreciable in-
fluence over women at large in making
them sacrifice their own fancies and re-
quirements in the way of dress. Trou<
ears are convenient, but at their best
they give a woman the look of a son-
brette; at their worst—thatis, when she
is middle aged and stout-they rob her of
her mature dignity and render her a
laughing stock. The grace and stateh-
ness bestowed by flowing garments is
universally recognized-witness the
robes of office and church vestures worn
by men. Although the latter adopt
trousers as their ordinary dress. they can
the better bear the se'i'erity of the attire
that strength rather than beauty is their
natural adornment.
The skirt lends a. dignity to women's
shorter stature and softer outlines that
she can ill afford to lose, rind she will
probably continue to wear it, despite the
reformers. as long as she retains the
fl‘Blllt‘llc instincts and reserve which an.
characteristic of the majority of her sex.

of rcform earnestly rccommcndod tlic

A Hot-hie Russian Woman.
The Russian lady who owns the well
known initials “O. K," in othtr words.
Olga de Kirefl', or still in other words,
Mme. de Novikoff, is about to leave Lon-
don and take up her residencein Ameri-
ca. She has been something more than
a Russian political enthusiast. She has
bade political mission. and has exercised
in political circles in London a wide po-
litical influence. It has not exactly been
an influence felt or seen, as it were, above
ground. It has worked silently, widely
and in a subterranean way, more even
than by public agitation or directly
through the press.
Often when the doings of Russia were
beng minimized to the British public, it
was Mme. do Novikofi who was behind
some members of the English press, in-
spiring them with information. coloring
the aggression and pulling the wires.
Mr. Gladstone himself belonged to the
circle of her select friends. Russia must
have some deep design in hand in send-
ing such an emissary to the other side of
the Atlantic, which will not be explained
by the fact that a Russian squadron is
to have its headquarters at New York.’
Society will miss her in London, but the
initials of “O. K.” will not perhaps quite
disappear from the columns of the Bug—
lish press—London Correspondent.

A Chic Hair Bow.
Cine of the prettiest uses for ribbons
this season will be in the hair, as the
Greek fillet, with its knot on one side
near the front. or still more fashionable
as the smart cockade bow, showing three

All these bows for the hair must stand

There were 6.285 women postmasters
