The dress reform fad is growing in nota
ry. In the recent and general discussion
regarding the devisement of an ideal every
liv dress far w)man no mention has been
made of a much-desired garment that,
cnee put on the market, would find ready
This is a summer jacket to correspond
in weight with the alpaca coat so univer
lally patronized by men. Of a handsome
rashly of poplin, in negative colors—black
. ra v. navy-blue and bottle-green—well cut
iud naif-fitting, hundreds of women would
eladly purchase as a grateful addition to
L-, ;r hot-weather wardrobes. With a sim
cliTmade skirt and wash-silk shirt, this
mohair coat would complete an ideal busi
ness dress for the woman who works in town
,i summer and either repines in a clcse
biiitoned basque or droops under the ex
tra warmth of a woolen jacket. The Jen
ness Miller idea of a business dress is fairly
good. It i* not a dress of any length,
though it may sorry time come to be a dress
of importance. Mrs. Miller says dresses
thould be assorted as to length into three
classes—those that stop half way between
the knee aDd the ankle, those that just clear
the ground and those that trail. Most
women seem to be satisfied at present with
dresses assorted in two classes—tnose that
trail a little and those that trail a groat
deed. There is no prospect that the designs
shown will bo used to any great extent by
saleswomen or typewriter girls this sum
mer.
Vow, as I just came from a long chat
■with one of my young girl friends who
gives promise of being one of the most suc
cessful summer girls, says Clara Belle in the
Enquirer, of the coming season, I’ll let you
into the secret of the delightful freshness of
her skin, the clearness of her eyes, und the
fascinating odor exhaled by her, by which
1 mean not the heavy, heady, intoxicating
perfume known as “double extracts,” but
that garden-flower, outdoor smell hanging
about a vine-embowered cottage in May or
June. The summer girl bathes like a
man, or, rather, like an Englishman. That
i-, she sponge-bathes herself three or four
times a day from head to foot, and then
uses only the finest cologne water, eschew
ing handkerchief odors entirely. The con
sequence is that she smells like a bed of
violets or sprig of honeysucle or a handful
of sweet shrubs. Her hair, too, is kept
scrupulously neat and clean, so that after
waltzing with the boys on a hot summer
evening they say to each other:
••Well. Kitty is not very pretty, but by
Jove, it always seems to me that I’m carry
ing around an armful of apple blossoms
when I waltz with her!”
Now all this care of the person is a labor
—a big labor. It takes time and a great
deal of it, but, bless your soul, it pays, and
it makes the summer girl sure of herself.
That is a big point. A boat may upset, a
wagon overturn, a floor give way, a swing
b eak, yet you’ll find the summer girl calm
amid disturbance.
A neat little walking costume, says the
Herald's Paris letter, for town wear is of
veiling or foulard of vieux-rose, printed
with lit le white flowers. The skirt round,
lightly draped at the hips and ornamented
at the foot with a volant with ruched head,
bordered with a little bias of white silk.
The corsage, without darts, gathered in
eerbe at the point and crossed over a front
of black velvet, orossed with vieux-rose
barettes bordered with little ruches edged
with white. A ruche of white edged foulard
trims the entire corsage. Sleeves very high
shouldered, and narrow at the bottom, of
ftrint fuutard. This costume is remarkably
ight and airy, and exceedingly graceful.
Anew thing in the way of capotes is of
black rice straw, forming in fan shape. In
front, under the twilled bordering a gar
land of lilac resting on the hair. Benina,
strings and bow of velvet, attached by a
cacne-peigne of lilac.
Another neat little fancy is a toque of
Parma violets graded In toues, with light
foliage. On the back of the *p> a bow of
ambergine velvet.
For quite a long time a large company of
young girls, uuder the charge of a lady of
mature age, says Clara Belle in the Repub-
Hr, appeared each morning at a meat
market on upper Sixth avenue, New York,
and while the lady ordered the trades
people to deliver certain quantities of the
viands at her address the girls stood about
listening. The lady would explain the dif
ferent kinds of meat to the girls and define
for them the various ways of cutting. This
was a class from a fashionable boarding
school obtaining instruction in the business
of marketing. One of the class was recently
telhng a friend why the practice of going to
market was discontinued.
i “We all thought it jolly fun,” said she,
“and it would never have been stopped if it
hadn’t been for a girl who was reprimanded
one morning for casting eyes at some man
in one of the club windows. She was
lectured by the principal for it, and it made
her awfully angry. She did everything
she could to excite feeling against the
principal after that, and one morning she
g't a beautiful opportunity to revenge her
self, We had been asked to write short
compositions telling what we had
learned about marketing. We road
these aloud'in class. When it came
that bad girl’s turn to read
she rose and, taking up her paper, an
nounced in a very clear and cutting voice,
‘! have learned that the aft of marketing is
to always buy half as much meat as is
needed for the table, and to invariably pur
chase second-class eggs.’ This was all she
said, and whin she sat down there was dead
silence in the room. The principal of the
school did not rebuke her, but merely called
up another girl to read. That was the end
°t fhe marketing class, however. The girl
who broke it up left soon afterward, and
now I notice that there are very few men in
the emb window when we take our noonday
walk on the avenue. Oh, ves; sue was the
belle of the school.”
.The popularity of the modern bang, says
the World, is due to the Princess of VValei
directly and to Mrs. Langtry indirectly. In
i was in London when the young
princess started the fashion, which spread
like wild*,. As well as I can remember
she had her hair parted round, instead of
down, nearer the crown than the forehead,
j - 1 - tresses were cut and arranged in soft
loose rings, each thick enough and suf
ficiently weii curled to identify itself. Just
bow this individualizing was accomplished
"as a mystery to the general public. Other
" men got the curl the same in
size and thickness, but they couldn’t
k-ep the curl in as her royal highness did.
They resorted to soap suds, grape seed glue
at.d syrupy washes, but those lotions made
the bair wiry. A few years later along
came the Jersey Lily, who improved upon
t.. • royal hang and. being younger and
prettier than the princess, had the exquisite
Pleasure of seeing her innovation adopted.
At iirst Mrs. Langtry wore her bair, tuen a
pretty, golden brotvu, dressed about her
face in light, fleecy half circles, her hair
•j®ing naturally wavy and easily managed.
“ beu she began to oolor it the life was
taken out of it, and she set the fashion of a
fluffy, pointed hang. The princess still
" <ars iho deep hang of individually curled
ringlets which reaches well up to the coif
fure and quite close to her eyebrows, and
wuich to-day gives her the appearance of
being the sister to her ->wu children.
In lb*B Mrs. Langtry tail aside the
durled hang and introduced the crimping
prooesa, which, when pulled and brushed
’’ut, produced the fluffincas needed to fill in
ti high bonnets. Ten yea: a later she went
bank to the baug, which she rolled in an uo-
Terwave, at U>e same time bringing out the
cow’s-tail red color that has sinoe been made
famous by the Cleopatras.
I was told an amusing: story concerning
cigarettes and silk stockings, says Clara
Belle iu the Republic, and it may be well
to repeat it here as a waraing to young
la lies who indulge in a dainty pafflet, either
in the privacy o! their own ruoms or when
spending the afternoon or evening at a
friend's house. Two young ladies, who are
parlor boarders at a fashionable school on
-Vadison avenue, New York, have a married
friend living in town, and she often calls to
chaperon them here and there. The lady
principal tho ight it was perfectly safe to
trust her pupils with tais chaperon, who
seemed so steady and dignified; bat one fine
day something or other occurred to arouse
her suspicions, and it was this: As the two
parlor boarders entered the house at It
o’clock, the lady principal happened to be
standing in the nail way, and in a moment
°f expansion put her arm around
the youngest and prettiest of the two girls
and kissed her good-night. Horrors! There
was an unmistakaoleodorof tobacco smoke.
Could it be possible that such a sweet and
dainty creature would soil her lies with the
filthy weed? She deemed it her duty to ac
cuse the girl, and followed her up to her
room. But lassie denied the impeachment
most strenuously. It must be that she had
drank out of a glass which had been used bv
a gentleman, or possibly had wiped her
mouth wi;h a napkip that had been used by
some gentleman present. The lady princi
pal was entirely persuaded of Tessie’s inno
cence, and craved forgiveness for having
harbored such a thought.
The next week Tessie and her chum were
again absent from the school in charge of
their chaperon, and when they returned
that night at 11 o’clock, Tessie was very
particular to invent an excuse to enter
the principal’s room and kiss her good
night.
“Fooled the old lady that time!” chuckled
Tessie to her chum, after the door was
closed. “1 cleaned my teeth, washed mv
face and smeared myself with perfume bed
sore we left Hattie’s (the chaperon’s) this
evening.” The two girls were in the midst
of toeir rejoicing at the old lady’s discom
fiture when alow knock at their door caused
Tessie, who was sitting on their bed taking
off her stockings, to cry out:
"Do see who is knocking at this hour.”
It was the lady principal. She walked
into the room with the air of a Maria
Theresa. “Any cigarette smoking at your
friend’s this eveniug, young ladies?” asked
the lady principal, in a tone of voice that
sent a cold chill down the backs of the two
girls.
“O, no, ma’am,’’ cried Tessie, “why of
course cot. Our chaperon would not permit
such a thing.”
"Let me have your stockings,” exclaimed
the lady principal, reaching out her hand
for the delicate clock-silk envelopes which
Tessie had just stripped from her shapely
feet and ankles.
“My stockings!” stammered Tessie.
“Yes, Miss Tessie, your stockings.”
Seizing the dainty hosiery, the lady prin
cipal rai-. and them to her nose.
“Tobacco smoke, young ladies; tobacco
smoke,” she blurted out; “perfectly satu
rated with it!”
Tessie burst into a loud laugh. “Caught
again; but for gracious sake, who would
have thought that cigarette smoke would
settle in one’s stockings ?
“Well, permit me to inform you, young
ladies,” replied the lady principal, as she
turned to leave the room, “that there is a
chemical affinity between tobacco fumes
and the texture of silk stockings. When
you next visit your very pr per chaperon,
1 would advise you to wear Lisle thread!”
White silks, lawns, laces and flannels,
white shoes, slippers, stockings, and spatts,
white hats and veils, white gloves and ker
chiefs, white fans and parasols, are one and
all triumphant this summer over colored
duplicates, no matter how ravishing in tint
or becoming in design the latter articles may
be, says the New York Times. A passe
belle, now wavering on the danger line
known as thirty odd, became animatedly
indignant when the faot was mentioned,
aud insisted that the whole thing was an
underhand bit of trickery on the part of
last winter's debutantes. She said: “The
mischievous immature buds admitted six
months since planned this summer’s cam
paign a id mapped it out. to the very small
est detail long before the last Patriarchs’
ball took place. With wit superior to their
years they realized even in the heart of the
season that there was no use trying to com
pete with older beauties in point of style,
scheming, or attractive manners. The
women over 25 had everything their own
way, a simple walkover, in fact, at dinners
as well as well as dances. But all the while
we were flirting, driving and monopolizing
the best men,” she continued, “it see in i
those baby-faced dolls silting meekly beside
their mammas vvero meditating a sure and
bitter revenge. They bided their time, u.-ed
all the influence money and position cau ex
ert, and now see the result! White has it,
and every bread-and-butter miss of the past
winter is now chuckling over our discomfit
ure. We must wear the hideous, colorless
stuffs or else confess ourselves routed.
“And nothing is quite so disastrous to a
passe skin as lack of softening shades. It
turns us sallow as lemons, develops
wrinkles, pales the lips, blanches the cheeks
and even absorbs the color from one’s eyes.
Think of It; when those vulgarly rosy
checked chits are dazzling in white outfits
and frolicking under green trees in the
country, we must either dare the compari
son with their callow youth or else fall back
on hot, old-fashioned reds, browns, blues
and the like. It is maddening to contem
plate, particularly when we remember
what fickle creatures we are depending on
for favor. Let a wise yellow wrinkle com
pete with a silly pink-and-white dimple,
and if a man is in the question w..at possi
ble chance have we ?”
As far as I can see, says the Paris letter
of the Herald, although the large hat still
prevails, it will not last long, and will,
without any doubt, shortly give way to the
many small, neat ones whi h are coming so
rapidly into vogue. Many of these are
made of Italian straw, arid are simply one
mass of flowers. The shapes which are
coming in are square, without crown, and
small brims. They are made in color of
mordore and yellow mixed. For instance,
a small boating hat, of mordore trimmed
with yellow feathers. The trimmings used
also are acacia, cowslips, yellow forget-me
nots, narcissi, jonquils, and, in fact, all yel
low flowers are strictly correct.
A novelty is the large poppy of black
velvet, with the outside of yellow satin.
On a black hat they form an elegant trim
ming.
There are two theories, says the Philadel
phia Inquirer , for the sudden excess of tall
women—one that some mechanical process
has been discovered and is being secretly
practiced by which stout women are drawn
out into long, slender females; the other,
that these women have always existed, and
are now suddenly brought forth from their
retirement by the inexorable decree of
fashion. The latter would seem to be the
more reasonable explanation. When it wa3
the fashion for women to be embonpoint
the tail and slender woman hid herself away
from public gaze as much as possible. *She
shrunk into her boots and walked stoop
shouldered when she was to lie seen in pub
lio places. Now that she has her inning she
is making good use of it. She is every
where. She walketh erect at noonday—also
in the evening. When she has a beau she
chooses one sne can look down upon. It ac
centuates her girafflc style. Her clinging,
drooping, Bernhardt draperies still further
lead forward and upward. It is a compara
tively easy thing for a woman of 5 feet t> to
add 4 inches to aer apparent hight if she be
not fat. Fat! That very word seems hor
rible to the sex just now. The fat woman
suggests the 10-ceut museum. Let h-ur
await her turn and grow fatter in anticipa
tion of her coming triumph.

his young wife, who had so long anticipated
the sad event, arrayed herself in a stylish
suit of mourning, aud thus appareled exhi
bited herself before him that he might tee
how charmingly the costume became her.
The P. rtlaud gossips who have analysed the
case are undecided as to tße relative pro
portion of va ity and devotion involved in
the exhibition.
It is actually true, says Clara Belle in the
Enquirer, that many women of beauty
are auuoyel when men stare too pers.st
ently at them. To this by no means large
class belongs a young New York lady of
great physical loveliness who was seriously
worried for a considerable length of time
by a man whom she met in theaters, in res
taurants aud various publio places. The
mat: was decidedly good looking, and was
scarcely insolent in bis actions, yet the
beauty was much irritated by his gaze, and
would have much like i to ask a policeman
to arrest him. Time passed, and the young
lady continued to suffer the stare of the
objectionable stranger. Life had become
unendurable, and she was just about de
cided to ask protection from someone
against her persistent admirer when she
received a note at her residence that
changed her mind completely. The n-Be
read:
“My Dkab Miss : I presume yess
have wondered why I stared at you at all
times when I have met you about town. I
meant no offense. lam not a masher; in
fact, lam a serious man of business, and it
is my enthusiasm for my business that com
pels me to look at you so much. To be
brief, I will say that I am the manu
facturer of anew toothpaste that is destined
to have a larger sale than any other similar
article in the market. I am a great be
liever in attractive advertising, aud it is
my intention to get out a handsome picture
i;i colors of a smiling young lady with beau
tiful teeth, and place this picture in as
many households as possible. The picture
will be so excellent that people will want
to frame it. I shall have this portrait
enameled on the cover of every pot of
tooth paste sold. For a very long time I
have been searching for a desirable face to
be used in this way’, hut until I saw you I
was unsuccessful.' You, however, fill the
bill in every respect, and I have noticed
that when you smile your teeth display
themselves very attractively. Now, I am
aware that you do not seek notoriety, but I
thought perhaps you would not be averse
to having your picture used in the way
described if I should offer a suitable consid
eration. Therefore, I beg the honor
of offering you the sum of S2OO
for the privilege of using a
smiling likeness of yourself. I have
sent by messenger a sample of the tooth
paste for you to try, so that you may see
you are not lending your aid to the adver
tisement of an inferior article. I shall be
glad to hear from you by mail, or I will
call on you at any time you name. With
best respects, I am your obedient servant,
n
The pretty young woman was compelled
to smile at this quaint appeal, and at once
wrote a reply to tha gentleman saying that
she regretted her inability to accept his
generous offer. And now she is no longer
annoyed by her whilom persecutor.
Here is a story from Western Pennsylva
nia which matches any told by Miss Wilkins
and other delineators of New England
thrift and unconscious humor, says the
New York Times. A young woman, whose
maiden home was in one of the small cities
of interior New York, followed the fortunes
of her husband, a Calvinistic minister, to
his first charge, a “Center" church near the
Ohio line of the Keystone state. The young
wife soon discovered that she had married
the congregation, and as it was a widely
scattered one her time was fully occu
pied. The most persistent claimant
of her attention and offices was an old
dame to whose announced deathbed she was
summoned within a week after ner arrival.
The so-called dying woman revived how
ever, the next day, and for two years de
veloped with great regularity frequent
periods of approaching dissolution. At
avory fresh recurrence of this condition the
pastor’s wife was immediately sent for and
always promptly responded, which, as the
house wus three miles away, often meant a
nizht in attendance.
Finally the old lady really did die and
was duly and properly buried. The follow
ing week her married daughter called at the
parsonage, asking for its mistress. After
some desultory talk upon the virtues of the
departed the visitor produced a small parcel
carefully wrapped. “Ma/'she began, using
the long, flat “a” of the neighborhood,
“thought a right smart of you, an’ Ehe said
she wanted you to have something of hers
to keep. So she wauted me to bring you
these. They’re as good as new, ’cause ma
never wore’eta mu oh. You can’t use’em
right away, but by and by they’ll come in
handy. If they don’t fit they can be fixed
easy.”
Mystified, but grateful, the minister’s
wife took the package and the visitor left.
Then she opened the paper. It contained
the dead woman’s false teeth!
“The future of the bang.” 3aid a leading
hairdresser to the New York World, “5
coeval with the future of woman. So long
as she lives she will be beautiful, and so long
as she is teautiful she will bang her hair.
She may part with her teeth, surrender her
eyebrows and even relinquish her hold on
the powder puff and rouge pot, but never,
never will she give up or pull back her front
hair.
“The bang is woman’s best friend. It is
the salvation of the matron and the ameli
oration of the homely young woman.
Fancy a young lady wi;h a prominent nose,
high cheek bones, squirrel teeth that will
not remain covered, hollow temples, pro
jecting ears or ill-balanced features, and if
you think a bang of no importance in soft
ening hor cou-tenance you are very much
mistaken. Even pale, colorless eyes can be
darkened; ‘saucer eyes’ can be toned down;
a long face can be foreshortened and a
broad one elongated hv the simple process of
banging the front hair and waving, curl
ing, crimping, fluffing or scrambling it and
■ pinning it in, down or up, according to the
size and shape of the face aud the hight of
the forehead.
"A man with an ugly, brutal or weak
mouth has the charitable shelter of a beard
or mustache, and a womaa with a hard
face, coarse features and masculine brow
can as completely change matters with a
bang. The bang is a great institution. Its
past is as old as human variety and its
future is eternal. Whether furled or un
furled, it will still remain a frill for the
brow of beauty aud avail to soften the
ravages of time.
Dinner toilets, says the Sun, employ
Pompadour striped satins, Marie Antoinette
brocade, and flowered crepe de chine with
Louis coats, Valois collars and sleeves, and
Henri 11. ruffs. Wonderful Florentine pict
ure gowns of jonquil yellow, veiled with
jetted Spanish net, are designed for brill
iant brunettes, and are worthy of honor
able place among historic costumes. Many
of the new gowns, especially those emanat
ting from Felix, have waist and
skirt all in one piece and fastened
invisibly in the back, ornamented
usually with a corselet braided or embroid
ered in rich golden threads. India silk
gowns, all in one piece, are made up lightly,
to bo worn over a separate petticoat of silk.
A black ground strewn with lilac figures has
