CAMBODIAN WOMEN'8 DRESS.
Cambodia'Is one'of the spots where
woman.has attained equal rights with
man, at least so far as dress goes. The
Cambodian woman wears trousers Just
like those of the men, except In color.
They are 'made of soft native silk,
which falls In ample and graceful folds
and drapery effects quite different from
those of the Turks. The women of the
royal family wear deep yellow, rose,
soft pinkish gray and pinkish lilac.
Maid servants wear green trousers. As
trousers are worn by the Cambodian
woman they resemble the skirts of a
Norman peasant, as she tucks them up
on a mussel gathering expedition, the
silk being fastened In thick pleats to a
waistband, whence It falls In a very
long and wide apron. When the band
la fastened around the waist the middle
la drawn up and fastened to the front
of the waistband. A loose girdle of a
different colored silk, with long ends, Is
added when the trousers belong to a
dancing girl.
Besides these trousers, Cambodian
women wear light allk skirts, with
scarves of crepon silk draped diagonal
ly from shoulder to hip, and an over-
robe of gauxe, often sumptuously em
broidered. Bangles cover the arms.
The dancing girls wear spiked helmets
similar to those of a Prussian soldier.'
Those who accompany the king and
queen on their Occidental excursion
are said to be dying to wear Parisian
hats and corsets, and Mme. Falllerea
has presented one of her own hand
some hats, trimmed with feathers, to
the queen.

Elderly women who love to sew often
have such poor sight that they cannot
see to thread their needles. Let one of
the younger members of the .family
thread a paper of needles by stringing
them all on one thread as one would
string beads. Then, when a needleful
of thread Is desired, simply take the
flrat needle, and as much thread as Is
desired with It. pressing the other
needles back agnlnst the spool and
fastening them ao that they will not

they are worn at Bailey's Beach In the

adjunct of the shopping tours In
Thames street In the afternoon.
A handsome dog collar Is owned by
the smartly gowned Mrs. Edward R.

MRS. BURKE-ROCHE'8
LATEST VENTURE.
Mra. Burke-Roche has a genius for
posing In the limelight. She Is gener
ally the leading figure In a flashlight
picture. And she never seems to be
quite normal, no matter when the light
focused on her. Her especial gift
appears to be her talent for keeping
her domestic affairs out of Joint and
her matrimonial matters In print. She
Is an Incarnate klnetoscope and has the
eyes of the public blinking at her con
tinuous changes. As Is well known, the
newspapers of the past few days nave
given much space to her Just-an
nounced marriage to Aarel Batonyl,
the fashionable professional driver of
New York and Newport: hence the
following details from a New York ex
change will be of Interest.
Her first marriage took place In 1880
... James Boothby Burke-Roche, a
young Englishman of lineage and ex
pectations, but little money.
She was Miss Fnnny Work, the
daughter of a rich New Yorker, Mr.
Frank Work.
Three children had been bora—a
daughter, and two sons, Francis and
Maurice. Five years after their mar
riage Mrs. Burke-Roche and her
daughter came to America and took up
their resldepce with Mr. Work. Soon
afterward Mr. Burke-Roche came over
Ith the two boys and left them at
the Work home. Mrs. Burke-Roche
and her children continued to live with
Mr. Work, and five years later she be
gan a suit for divorce In the courts of
Delaware. She was represented by
Thomas F. Bayard, the grounds of the
net Inn being stated a* desertion and
non-support. At the trial Mr. Work

Just Received. Look at Them.
Charles W. Crankshaw,
Diamond Merchant and Jeweler.
Century Building. Whitehall SL
testified that he was obliged to sup
port his daughter and her children. A
decree ot abeolute divorce waa granted
to Mra. Burke-Roche In 18S1, and ahe
received complete control of her chil
dren.
Since that time Mrs. Burke-Roche
has lived with her father In New York,
and haa occupied hit Newport eetate,
known aa Elm Court, /luring the eura-
mers. She haa been prominent In so
cial circles. She haa been successful
with her kennels and stables, her en
tries taking many prises In the various
ahowa about the country.
She waa the first woman to tool a
roach and four, having been taught by
Mr. Batonyl. Of late there have been
repeated rumors that she was to marry
Mr. Batonyl, and that she was only
waiting for her daughter to marry, as
the laat pamed had requested that she
do so.
The English courts did not recognise
the divorce obtained by Mrs, Burke-
Roche, but a separation was entered
Into between Mrs. Burke-Roche and
her husband In 1888. Later Mr. Burke-
Roche went Into politics, and stood for
the vacant seat In parliament from
East Kerry, being elected by a large
majority over his Conservative oppo
nent.
Since the separation Mr. Burke.
Roche htg come Into the title of Lord
Fermoy, and his daughter waa entitled
to be called the Hon. Mias Burke-
Roche, but she renounced all claim to
the title about a year ago, and took out
papers as an American cltlxen, siding
with her mother, with whom she hat
always lived. The two sons, who are
now young men, have been educated
at private schools, and have always
spent their summers with their mother
at Newport.
Mr. Batonyl has been coming to
Newport for some years. At one time
he flgured prominently In the horse
shows about the country, nnd was al
ways seen driving the entries of Mrs.
Burke-Roche. Hs was a professional
whip of prominence, nnd his services
were much In demand In teaching
women of social prominence to tool a
coach and four. He also drove a pub
lic coach In New York, but a couple of
years ago retired, giving ns the reason
that he had been In an accident which
would not allow of his continuing to
drive. He then took up his legal real
dence In Newport and established him
self at the Two Mile Corner Farm, Just
outside of the city.
Mr. Batonyl was bom In Hungary.
He received his education In the lead-
Ing universities of England and Eu
rope. At the University of Halle he
was vice-president of an exclualve stu
dent organisation. After his gradua
tion he had differences with his father
and came to thla country, arriving In
New York In 1889. The differences be.
tween father and son were soon made
up, but Mr. Batonyl would not return
to Hungary.
Hla father, Leopold Batonyl, Is „
nan of great wealth, and two years
ngo gave his son extensive estates.
When the marriage took. place or
where It took plade Is not known, but It
la 'known that It was a civil service
and was performed some time ago.
Mr. Batonyl Is a Catholic and hla
wife an Episcopalian.

the things which thousands of women
are facing today, and these are the
conditions which slowly but surely sap
the nervous forces until a state of ex
haustion follows.”
To three different causes, according
-J wiuv.vm v«mace. ULLUI Ulllg
to Dr. Hammond, ar« duf the Increaae
of neurathenla among both women and
men of today. One cause Is the com
plexity of life as It Is lived now. "Life
today carries more responsibilities,
heavier burdens than It usod to years
ago. The gigantic enterprises of the
present time, the close competition
* * * are sapping the energy of most
men and many women. The women
who are not slaves to business are con
fronted with tremendous social duties.
The burdens of housekeeping and the
rearing of children, as these things are
done today, are businesses In them
selves entailing as much worry and
anxiety as most men edure In the proi'
ecutlon of their businesses."
Another cause, In the case of some
women. Is their own folly. The women
who play bridge for hours at a time,
keeping themselves In a state of ex
citement till the nervous centers are
drained; the wealthy women who loll
In their carriages and grow languid
for lack of exercise; the women who
ruin their digestion by nibbling In fash
ionable restaurants at dishes which
would "cause a man to stand aghast
If they were set before him''—all these
come In for a word of warning from
Dr. Hammond. "If you dance you must
the piper,” he says,
ut It Is a comfort to hear that the
nervous troubles so rife today are not
entirely due to the faults of this gen
eration. "Probably the most powerful
predisposing Influence causing neu
rasthenia today," Dr. Hammond re
marks, 'is the weak and unstable
nervous system which many of us
hare inherited from our forefathers
Through no fault of our own, but
through the faults of omission and
commission of our parents, and of those
who preceded them, we come into the'
world with perhaps great bodily vigor
but with a deteriorated and weak ner
vous system. • • • I speak of these
things,” he adds, “not with the view
of casting reflections on any of our
progenitors, but because we are, or
will become, ancestors ourselves, and
It behooves us to so direct our lives
that those who come after ua may re
member us kindly.”
And what remedy doea Dr. Ham
mond*' suggest for neurasthenia? Hla
advice Is addressed to women, though
almost as many mem he says, suffer
from the disease. If It Is serious, the
sufferer should consult a specialist, ot
course, but In its milder stages, the
patient may treat herself. Above all,
the original trouble.or worry to which
the breakdown was due must be done
away with, or If that Is not possible,
the victim must "school herself not to
rare." Cheerful society Is good, and
occasional theatergoing. If the play la
a light one: but not churchgoing. "Go
ing to church almost always makes a
nervous person worse." And sleep Is
Imperative, but not tho sleep Induced
by narcotics, against the' use of which
Dr. Hammond la emphatic. "Tranquil-
lixe the mind." he says, “bring sleep by
force of will. Sleep alone. If pooslble.
Sometimes, If everything else falls, a
warm foot bath or drinking a glass of
milk before going to bed will bring
sleep to tired eyes."
