The Girl of Culture Is Now Raiding Cigar
Stores For Tobacco Ribbons.
The idea of making cushion covers, table
covers and other decorative objects out of
cigar ribbons seems to have taken an on-
during hold on the Boston, fancy. The
latest advices from there report that to-
bacco dealers are besieged by requests for
the ribbons, of which they have, of course,
a continual supply. At first the desired
articles were given awry in handfuls, but
the demand soon became so great that the
ribbons assumed the importance of mer-

chandise, and an appreciable revenue is de-
rived from them. Yellow is naturally the
prevailing color of the objects into which
they are made up, but occasionally red and
even blue ribbons may be secured by the
fortunate fancy worker.
Large vases of plain Japanese pottery
are popular decorations at present. They
come in soy ral shapes and various colors,
yellow and blue being those most often
seen. They are pretty and eflcctivc in
themselves, but as far as holding flowers
goes they are a. delusion, for they'havc a
crackled glazing, through which water
leaks away rapidly. This is bad for flow-
ers, bad for whatever the vase rests upon
and extremely bad for the vase itself,
which will soon become discolored by the
process. . ,
A favOritc way of marking handker-
chicfs is to write the name or initial by
hand in the corner, instead of having it
stamped in conventional letters, and then
embroider over the lines with fine silk.
This style of marking has the merit of in-
dividuality in every case and always shows
itself indubltably to be hand work, some-
thing worth considcring in these days of
machine manufacture.
Parisian women are fond of making lit-
tle decorative bags that seem to have no
particular use except to keep somebodyfe
fingers busy in their manufacture. A
sketch is given of a des'gn for a shopping
or work bag. The foundation is composed
of a circle of cardboard covered with brick
red satin. It is crossed by bands of yellow
ribbon tacked on with clusters of French
knots in yellow embroidery silk. The cir-
cle is bent together to form the bottom of
the bag, and the end spaces are filled with
pieces of cardboard cut to fit and similar;
ly covered. A lining of yellow satin ex-
tends beyond the top and forms the bag
proper, which is gathered on running
strings. It is decorated with yellow rib-
bon bows. For the embroidery knots that
fasten the crossed ribbon bands gold beads
may be substituted with good efiect. .
J UDIC CHOLLET.
SAVAGES AHEAD OF US.
J udic Chollet Sbys‘They Know More About
Sensible Clothing Than ‘Ve Do.
Changeable fabrics are quite the mode
still, and some of them seem to combine
all the colors of a pousse cafe. The two
toned diagonal woolen goods that came
out last year appears to have delayed
reaching its real vogue until this season,
although it is now too warm for a vital in-
terest to be felt in any except the lightest
sort of worsted materials. However, one
must have something for damp weather

come more rags under the influence of
moisture. A pretty two toned thin serge
trimmed with changeable silk to match, or
a neat shepherd's plaid in brown, blue and
white, with brown and blue shot lining,
will be found usui‘ul for general wear
where lighter and more fanciful toilets
would be out of place and inconvenient.
Infact, as far as absolute convenience .
is concerned in regard to clothing, civi-
lization is a. retrograde movement. Sav-
ages are away ahead of us and will prob-
ably always remain so in this matter, as
they are, as 'a rule, in respect of health
and physical development. Civilization
under the equator amounts to very little
even at this late day, and the arctic re-
‘gions are scarcely worth considering, since
they are . so little known and so compara-
tively sparsely populated. ' It is in the
temperate zones that mankind reaches the
highest degree of scientific knowledge,
cultivated art and uncomfortable attire.
We are very clever, very muchcultured,
very progressive, but we needindividually
We

where. the weather is, equable, and where
the bread grows on the trees, where we
must spend our days roaming about en

of the earth, and where an absence of 0811‘.
dies would send us to bed at sunset. Such
a return to nature might be a bore to the
majority of us who have nothingbf the
savage lurking within us. but it would be
extremely wholesome.

triangles of guipure. The round bodice is
draped on the right side of the front and
trimmed on the left with guipure. A

It has been a stock accusation against .
women for ages that they are “fond of
dress. ” Men have long advanced this fact
as a sufficient reason why women should
no‘tbe considered up to the masculine stand—
ard‘ in any sort of work. Admitting that
the accusation of fondness for dress is ab-
solutely true, what possible obstacle can a
preference for becoming or unbecoming
attire be to advance in any business, art
or science for which awoman has any real
;.Z>ility? Men and women both have their
» pct vanities. Men are proud of their muscu-
lar s.rength, and with reason, and women’
cheerfully admit their own inferiority in
that respect. No doubt, if nature had pro-
vided them with broad shoulders and iron
muscles, they, too, would be vain of such
possessions. Instead she has given them
delicate coloring and rounded contours, ‘
and why is it not quite as pardonable for
them to set Off those advantages by appro-
priate clothing as it is for a. man to dis-
BLACK SILK MUSLIX BODICE.
play- a. well knit figure by wearing knee
breaches and a jersey bathing suit? All
men do this and similar things, and it is
not taken as a sign of mental feeblencss
or incapacity. .
Men are quick to notice women's dress,
and they are severe and discriminating
critics. AlthOugh it is going against gen-
erally accepted opigion to say so, it‘ is ex-
tremely doubtful if they are as good judges
of beauty unadorned among women as are
women themselves. A pretty gown, es-
pecially if it be rather dashing, wins two-
thirds of the admiration that a woman
fanci‘es‘is all inspired by her Own person-
ality. A certain disappointed mother rc-,
marked of her son and, his wife that “he
, ton in love with her clothes, " and she told
the truth. The wife had neither beauty,
‘wlt, education nor affection to make her
. desirable, but she had‘b fashionable figure
and excellent taste in dress. Eight men
out of ten find such a woman more attract»
ive than one of any other type. So, as
,mcn and women both like becoming dress,
why not accept it as a general fact rather
' than a particular folly?
The particular foll'y illustrated today is
a bodice of black silk muslin and brown
guipure. It is lined withblack surah and
trimmed with black satin ribbon, which is
mingled with the folds of the front and
forms a. belt with short bows and long
ends. J unto CHOLLET.
Taousens FOR WOMEN.
Convenient, Healthful and Light, but, Alas!
Unbecoming, Says J udic Chollet.
There is a great deal to be said in favor
of the trousers costumes for women pro-
posed—and often carried—by dress reform-
ers. Such attire is convenient in all weath-
er, healthful, light and simple. But
there are also many things to be said
against them. They are unbecoming ex-
cept to a schoolgirl, they lack dignity, and
they make a woman look like a very in-
ferior. kind of man. Masculine clothing
emphasizes a man’s good points—his
broad chest, largo limbs and general mus.
cular development—but it detracts from a
woman’s natural advantages—her grace-
ful carriage, delicate form and general
softness of outline, which are best set ofi'
by flov’ving draperies that lend themselves
to each movement. Turkish ‘women, who
exist only to be beautiful, and whose cos—

tume is one of the most artistic and becom-
ing in the world, wear' trousers, but over
them wear a. long clinging skirt that trails
upon the floor. It is usually only women
of the laboring classes in any of the coun-'
tries so enthusiastically quoted by dress
reformers Awho wear-the simple trousers
costume.~ It is undoubtedly the dress par
' excellence for strictly utilitarian purposes,
, and the fashionif generallyadoptcd Would
be a._gr_eat relief to' hardworking women.
But if reformers expect to succeed in mak-
ing it really fashionable theywill probably
find themselves very much out of their
reckoning, for fashionable women are not
iinclined to adopt any extreme novelty in
garments the only recommendations of
. which are comfort and convenience.
By“ all means let women who wish or
whose business requires them to weartrou-
sers do so. But all attempts to force the
' custom upon women as a mass, either by
ridicule or moral cocrcibn,fwill_ meet with
failure. The days Of sumptuary laws are
past, and we are all going to wear'shst
what we like if’we can 'get it. ,

FOR THE YANKEE BROWNIES.
What They May \Vear In the Country and
by the Sea. . .
Now is the season" ' approaching when
3:th shovels and pails are in demand and
the seaboard is alive with small architects
and engineers. It is. to be hoped that few
mothers dress their children so that they
are dobarrcd from enjoying to the full the
delights of delving and paddling, for the
childish desire for those harmless pursuits
is a paramount one, and a little summer
salt water splashing hurts nothing about
a child except its clothes.
Ono mother has rather an ingenious way
of protecting her little gir ’s gowns. She
has made of brown holland astraight skirt
twice as long as the child’s dress skirt.
Top and bottom are each gathered into a
band of the right size to fit the waist, a
placket hole being left, of course. Ono
band is then buttoned around the little
girl’s waist under all her petticoats and
the other fastened around it outside the
dress, and there are all the skirts protected

from dust and spots. The holland can be
taken ed at a moment’s notice, leaving
the wearer presentable in spite of her play
hour.
If a seaside child is to have the fullest
amount of pleasure to be extracted, from
the conditions, he or she, regardleée or sex,
should be provided with a little "wheel-
barrow in addition to the ‘ usual pull and
shovel. It is not an expensive indulgence,
and the pleasure ’of: transporting sand,
stones and wood in "sucha vehicle is incul-
culable by any grown person. ’ With‘ these
implements and an outfit of serge- and
duck frocks not too good for commOn use
small boys and girls will be sure of a‘ happy
as well as a healthful summer by the sea.
Regulation sailor suits are much liked
for little boys 'just » out of kilts. These
suits are made of navy blue .or white flan-
nel and have long flaring trousers and a.
blouse cut away in front to show the
throat. A flat naval cap and low shoes ac-
company thc costume.
A great many pretty and highly trimmed
things are shown for infants" wear. For
the benefit of .women who like excessive
elaboration in such garments a sketch is
given of a. baptismal robe of fine lawn
decorated with valenciennes flounces and
insertion, tucking and feather stitching.
The tiny bodice is short sleeved and low
necked and crosses in front, surplice fash-
ion, being gathered into a belt. There is
a novel addition to the gown in the shape »
of an absurd little lace basque.

NOT SOFTENED BY TIME.
Fashion's Enormities of Forty Years Ago
Seem Even “Torso Now.
We know that fashion changes from
year to year, and that her freaksare often
unmarked by wisdom and good taste, but
we do not fully appreciate the enormities
she commits until time has rendered them
obsolete. A glance at the fashion plates
in magazines of 40 years ago provokes
boundless wonder as to how men and
women ever consented to make such ab-
surd spectacles of themselves. Consump-
tive gentlemen, with sloping shoulders
and wasplike waists—the latter accentu.
ated by a style Of coat with a full basque
gathered on to what women would call a
plain bodice—Ogle ladies who wear the
fullest part of a. full skirt in front and
stand in poses that would drive a physical
culturist to despair. If the woman of two
generations ago really carried her chest
and shoulders so far in the rear of her

head and the rest of her anatomy, how can
anybody have the assurance to state that
the girl of the present age is inferior in
health to her grandmother?
TheSc early declining persons were white
stockings, too, surely the most unbecom-
ing casing for the feet over adopted by a
supposedly cultivated people, not ex'cept-
ingthe white kid slipper. 'And‘such bon-
nets as the women appeared in beggar dc~
'scription. It may ‘ be- accurately stated
that the Women appeared “in” the bonnet
—so far in Lthat only a direct front view
revealed the fact that She had a face at all.
An immense scoop of straw covered neck,
ears'and hair and extended so far forward
asto preclude any glimpse of a possible
motile; All these things Were fashionable
in the'eyes Of our immediate ancesibrs. Is
it possible that 40 years from now our
pretty things wilhseem equally pneposter-
ous to our grandchildren? ‘
Qur judgment is enough betterothan
that of ‘past times to tell .us that a blank
expense of straw, however fine. is less at-
tractive'to the eye than 'a view of the face
it shelters. It has been many a day since
the countenance Was concealed by the heed
covering, and even our biggest hats leave
the face 'to' speak for itself. A fair exam-
ple of modern fashion is shown in the ac-
companying sketch. ' It is a hat of black
rice straw trimmed with black ostrich
plumes. The brim is bent and caught up
at the back, and black satin ribbon terms
an additiomd garniture.‘
