EVE’S RAMBLINGS?

 

RCMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG
THE WOMEN, BY ONE
or THEM.

 

With the coming of summer the con-
:mautly recurring wail of the matronly
“momma duly appears, and we writers
on fashion have to face that question of
Sinful import, “Why are there no
dashions for the middle-aged ?” But
alas! I would in return ask, “How
shall we know the middle-aged wom-
an? ”‘ or in different form put the
edemn question, “When is a woman
Infamddle age 1’” .

Taking: the three score years and

middle age, but what fashionable wom-

daughters whose complexions are as

a‘gnres as shapely as they were ten or

to those of the daughters ?

mmug‘ aside tie question of 'age,
kaing the suittbility of appirel as
megards figure and appearance. we
tune to a far more useful and sensible
wiew of the fashion of.»dress. First, as
to millinery, the toque is a boon to
chose debating over the choice of head-
gear, as it is the happy medium be-
tween a youthful hat and the more
matronl-y bonnet.

A slim, well set-up woman of 40,
with hair as. yet untouched by the
hand of time, may, for the country or
seaside, wear her coat and skirt, a
sailor hat in the morning, and a toque
2m the afternoon, but if silvery threads
arevisible let her content herself with
astraw toque, simply trimmed, in the
morning. and a smart bonnet or a
dressy toque in the afternoon.

All- women love to be spoiled, but
there isn’t one who will confess she is.

~which comes when we find a dollar in

Golf red has crept into the bicycle

for a man whom she is obliged to refuse

A glimpse into a well-filled refriger-
ator promises more real pleasure to

in the most artistic drawing room ever
furnished.

To realize how near this earth can

little country church, the open win-
dows and doors of which give you
glimpses of green fields and woods, and
blue, blue skies over all.

the Newtown avenue or Winnipauk
districts as he waits patiently for the
maiden in a faraway field who wants

Darlen and N oroton.‘

Miss Jessie St. John of Darien, is
visiting her sister, Mrs. Gilbert Finch
of Stamford, for a few days.

The question of extending the trolley
to the Cove Mills is still being agitated
by the people of that vicinity, and they
are hoping to soon see it down there.

Harry P. Waterbury of N oroton has
enlisted in the second battalion of the
Third Regiment. ~

Mrs. H. E. Whittemore is recover-
ing from her recent attack of illness.

Mr. and Mrs. William Ketchum, of
Port Chester, have been visiting rela-
tives here.

Members of the M. E. church are
collecting funds, by nickel subscription, '
for the purpose of having the church
building re-painted.
