Every now Lind then some writer outbo-

the discouraging statement that no woman
of refinement will wear undergarments not
made by hand. '1‘}: is would seem to be
rather a broad generalization, arguing that
only women of great wealth deserve to be

handling. Unless one is able to engage a.
skilled maid to take entire charge of all
delicate washable articles it is foolish ex-
travagance to pay $7 or $8 for the simplest
sort of a nightgown and for other gar-
ments in proportion. Washed in'the usual
way, the stock of underwear has to be con-
tinually replenished, and at the rate of
cost mentioned it would take all of an‘
average woman’s allowance to keep her in
lingerie. Of course she can make it her-
self if she has no more improving way of
spending her time and eyesight. Her
grandmother did so, but in her grand-
mother’s day there were no sewing ma-
chines, and underwear could not, as a
rule, be bought ready made. Not only
was the youngilady of olden days satisfied
with a very plain outfit, but her washing
was far better done. The undergarments
of the women of 75 or 100 years ago lasted
half a lifetime, but the same garments
under the present laundry system would
not last six months. When neat and
pretty clothing, made of good muslin and
carefully finished, can be bought at such
a moderate price as it is sold for at present,
it would be a. silly woman who Would re-
‘fuse to wear it because it is sewed by ma.-
chine unless she were a millionaire, who
could afford every luxury in keeping. And
it would be an equally silly woman who
would sit .stooping over her needle hours
in succession making clothing destined to
endure very little longer than the length
of time consumed in its preparation.

A IBEAUTY COURSE":
I: Is Quite Simple, and the Leadingltedlm. '
ment In Soap and \Vatcr. .
A young woman has lately publishedau
article telling how to become beautiful iii
two weeks without the-nid-of a. complex-
ion specialist. She stotes her own per-
' sonal experience of the treatment she rec-
ommends, which includes such unusual
medicaments as abundant fresh ,air, food
and sleep. It-would not seem that two
Weeks of this regime, which the young
woman appears to think will appeal tothe
world as something. entirely now, would
suffice to metamorphose even a person to
whom it was as great a noveltyas she evi-
dently found it, but she says it did and
relates the details of the wondrous change.
Wondrous it was, for at the beginning of
the two weeks her hands were rough and
sunbumed, her skin yellow, eruptive and
covered with black specks, her eyes dull,
her hair thin and her joints stifi and even
squeaking. What she could have been
doing to get ‘into such a condition is be-
yond conjecture, but‘ thus she was, and
more common wholesomencss of appear-
ance must have looked like ravishing
beauty beside her. In order to make the
most of her curative 14 days, she went
into the country, where she set about the
beautifying process in desperate earnest
by obtaining some warm water and cos

tile soap and washing her face. The im-
mediate improvement in her looks encour-
aged her to further exertions, and she be-
gan brushing her hair thoroughly, a prac-
tice which she kept up conscientiously ev-
ery day of the memorable fortnight. By
wearing gloves when she went out of
doors she triumphed over the sunburn on
her hands, and a liberal diet of sulphur
and molasses—a remedy that smells to
heaven, and the odor of which is as per-
sistent as musk—caused the rose and the
lily to quarrel for the supremacy in her
complexion. How the squeaking joints
were quieted the patient does not clearly
state, but at the end of the two weeks
they were silenced, and she was beautiful.
The process is so simple that if it had only
been found out before there would not be
a plain woman on the face of the earth by
this time. But now that the young wom-
an has generously divulged her discovery
we can all retire for a couple of weeks,
and, with the aid of soap and water, reap-
pear so much altered and improved that
our friends cannot recognize us
A sketch is given of a. gown of rose col-
cred muslin, with pale green stripes. The
skirt, which has a pcpluin, is made over a
rose colored taffeta under-skirt and is dec-
orated in front with green ribbons. The
round bodice has green folded bretelles
which cross over the bosom and are edged
with corn lace. The .guimpe is of rose
colored gauze, and the short puffed sleeves
are finished with three ruffles of lace.

It has been said a number of times late~

thought on the subject of what they eat

set about that task immediately. They
cannot be expected to eat as much, not be-

must cultivate a. nice appreciation Of fla-

ence between good and bad food. If they
put up with inferior yiands, as they often
do, it is rather because they are not so bel‘
ligcrent as men and dislike to “kick, ” as
the phrase goes.
Brillat-Savarin ~ is quoted as saying:
“It has been proved by a series of rigor-
ously exact Observations that by a. succu-
lent, dclicate and choice regimen the ex.
ternal appearances of age are kept away
for a long time. It gives more brilliancy
‘ to the eye, morefrcshness to the skin,
more support to the muscles. ‘ Those who
understand eating are four years younger
than those who are ignorant of that sci-
ence.” -
No doubt food has much to do with
beauty, but it is doubtful if exceeding
niceness of palate is any aid to the retain-
ing of youthfulncss. A cultivated palate ,
is usually taken to mean a. fondness for
curious seasonings and unique combina-
tions that do not appeal to the multitude.
It is desirable to be able to eat cpicurean
cookery when it is set before one, but it
would be hardly convenient for either men
or women to be able to eat nothing else.
Confinement to high living has not been
found to have a particularly beautifying
effect on those who have tried it. _
The sketch given 13 d a gown of boys-
dero striped crepon in blue and white.
The blouse corsage is gathered to a yoke of
gauze and insertion, and straps of inser-
tion trim the skirt as well as the bodice.
The elbow sleeves consist of two pufis and
have epaulets of blue moire. The back of
the skirt is arranged to fall in coquilles.
