upon 'which the Divine brauchtsman
limns his subtlest lines and blends his
rarest colors; may logically demand that
flowing complement of drapery whose
lines evolving In the minds of Rifted de
signers have resolved themselves Into the
bewitching costumes of the present day."
But the real problem of dress Is not
the question of how my lady shall array
herself for the seasons or what changes
she shall make In the
Interest of novelty.
Neither Is it what
eliado of Art shall
match what shade of
Naturo nor what
line of fabric shall
accord with what
nuance of figure. The
first, Damo Fashion,
that sprightly but
fickle female, de
crees. Tho second Is
settled after deep
consideration by the
charming Individuals
themselves.

much Irks the casual Investigator Is, "For

And toclcallv enough. Tet
Bolomon In all his glory is not arrayed
as some of our matronal
Benedict ups and boldly asserts that
women dress lo outvie each other. Mrs.
Brown must wear things as pretty and
as fashionable as Mrs.

will be thoroughly mis

appears In one of these
smart summer furs
whose cost makes them
prohibitive to her.

Oliver Goldsmith, In the "Dcsorted Vil

If Mr. Brown Is of a Jealous .turn, this
conclusion on tho motives of feminine
wear will glvo him comfort, for he will
bo satisfied that Mrs. Brown's sartorial
effectiveness is not for other men's ap
proval. But tho grump bachelors and the flinty
hearted biologists tho men who read
Darwin oftener than Conan Doyle will
prooaoiy agree on tho tenet that lovely
woman as well as her lew highly en
dowed sisters will depend upon that
sheath of varicolored fur or fabric, ge
ncrlcally called clothes, for capturing the
malo of the species and his ultimate subjugation.
HINTS FOR THE HOME SICKROOM;
PACKAGE GOODS FOR HOUSEKEEPER
TIIEnn should bo no pictures or deco
rations upon tho walls of tho ltnpro
vised hospital In your home, and tho floor
should bo bare, without even a rue.
Only the necessary furniture should be
permitted In the room. A whlto enam
eled bed should stand well In tho mid
dle of tho room, so that tho nurse may
pass easily from tho head to foot and
from one Bide to tho other. Tho mat
tress and spring should bo high, so that
the nurso will not strain her back In
her constant bending over the patient.
A table and chairs of lnexpenslvo wood,
so that in caso of contagious disease
they can bo burned, and a cot for tho
nurse, screened off In one corner of tho
room, should completo the furnishing.
uanisn upnolatered choirs or cot cover
ings that cannot be washed. Curtains,
if used at all, should be of simple ma
terial readJly laundered. .
With a room of this sort kept always
In readiness a prolonged spell of sick
ness, whero one after another of tho
family catches tho disease, may bo pre-i-ented,
nnd is worth fitting up as a
matter of precaution, even with tho
prayer that it will never bo used.
In one home such a place has been
Installed, with every appliance for a
hurry call, oven to tho operating room.
Here, through one of those floor, wall
and celling covorlngs put on In tho plas
tic state, the entire room Is seamless
and without a crevice, so that a hose
could be turned on and tho room washed

the housekeeper will, after testing, de
mand that sho bo served with tho brand
of goods sho calls for. Tho day of tho
"Just ns good" Is past as far as Intelli
gent women nro concorncd. In fact, the
question of grades Is so well recognized
that fruit, poultry nnd other goods for
merly told In bulk are now branded, nnd
If nt any time a package should not como
up to the standard the fact can bo In
stantly brought to tho attention of the
packer, who will bo only too glad to
mako good. This would be Impossible In
bulk goods, and consequently the con
sumer would bo out the entire cost of the
purchase.
Correct weight Is another thlnr- in .n
of tho package. Tho temptation to give
short weight of goods sold In bulk Is
Kiuninaica. Again, the price of pnekage
goods docs not fluctuate as easily as that
of goods In bulk. There Is a standard
price, and if this price Is lowered by any
retail etore upon a certain day, pur
chasers feel quite assured they aro really
getting a bargain. They can take advan
tage of the offer and buy package goods
at an actual cost of less than the same
thing in bulk In many instances.
There is no question that package goods
are much cleaner than the loose products,
which are too often open to absorb dust
from floor sweepings, served by hands
not too clean, to say nothing of being
handled by prospective customers.

However, thero Is no reason why an
ordinary room in an ordinary houso could
not bo set nsldo at little expense. It
should bo ns near the bath as possible,
and on tho sunny side of the house.
The chief thought must bo given to
sanitation and tho room so arranged
that It can be readily disinfected. Tho
walls should be painted instead of pa
pered or calclmlned. A soft gray or
neutral blue Is best, as tho glaro of a

harsh or bright colors have a bad effect

The only objection to this form of buying-
and selling wub the slight advance
in the cost of the package goods over
those sold in bulk. But few seemed to
think of the advantages gained.
An women investigated the food ques
tion further, however, they decided they
ought to have more knowledge of the
kind and quality of foods they were buy
ing. When goods were bought In bulk
there was no way to tell who was the
manufacturer, whether the goods were
put up under sanitary conditions; or, In
fact, whether such goods were pure or
adulterated.
So the package or original container
became, the Vay In which goods bought
could be identified. The label is the
guarantee of quality, purity, sanitation
and standardisation. The trade mark
nowadays has a new manlng for women,
because it decides the Important ques
tion of grades. One brand of goods may
be Just as pure as another, but the qual
ity will ot always be the same, and
Are the women of tho present day better
housekeepers than their mothers and
grandmothers before them? Havo the
multifarious outsldo-of-thc-home activities
of many of tho 20th century women re
duced their efficiency as home managers,
or havo they by sharpening their Intellects
become more alive to tho fact that the
status of housekeeping depends In largo
measure on the housekeeper herself, nnd
that sho can make of her work a drudgery
or an Interesting science, Just as she
sees fit?
A recent discussion of this over Interest
ing toplo was taken up by a croup of
clubwomen tho other day. Many of them
are exemplary housekeepers, whoso re
frigerators are never permitted to Indulge
in that disagreeable performance known
as "running over," whoso children nlwnys
aro as clean as cherubs and whose cntlra
regimen Is conducted with a smoothness
calculated to keep the most fastidious hus
band In a contented mood.
"I flrmly believe," said ono woman,
emphatically, "that tho modern woman
makes a moro systematla housekeeper
than her famalo ancestors. I mean by
that that, whereas tho woman of fifty
years ago who became known as a good
wife and mother had to glvo over hor
entire- tlmo "to It, tho woman of today
tnds tlmo to develop other interests out
side the home.
GIUNDMOTHEft A SLAVE.
"My grandmother," sho continued, "was
one of thoso women whoso homes ran
like clock work, but In order to achieve
this state of elllclency If It can bo called
such personally I havo different views
on tho matter she made herself a slave.
It was her type, I am sure, that was re
sponsible for tho old adacc. A mnn'ii
work's from sun to sun; a woman'B
work's never done.'
"Her servants. Instead of being trained
to stand on their own feet, were mado to
feel their dependence on her. Sho could
never tako a vacation, because sho
couldn't relax her hold on tho homo af
fairs. Things would have been (-ntlrnlv
disorganized If she had. The conse
quence was that, though she was an ox
amplo to all tho shiftless ones In tho
neighborhood, sho became In time a mar
tyr, nnd after sho had raised her flvo
children and hud arrived at an ago when
a woman ought to Ho back nnd enjoy
life sho was on old woman ready for tho
nrrnn hfir.

"And how can a wife keep up her out

woman, tho ring on whoso third finger

THE very latest Parisian
creations show a decided
trend toward the "now" fig
ure. This Is a development
from the lines which were be
ginning to make their appear
ance at tho end of the win
ter, a sort of cross between
tho debutante Blouch, omit
ting the slouch, and the old
fashioned hour-glaBS shape.
Fashion expertB promised us
the hour-glass figure within
another oeaBon, but I, for one,
refuse to believe that women
will be willing to endure the
agonies of the tight corsage
after the wlde-walsted free
dom they havo enjoyed during
the last two years,
The linos of tho new fig
ure still lean toward slender
neas, but not the slenderness
of emaciation. It Is a more
erect, less clinging type. It
is the slenderness of a well
developed, well-corseted body,
and the newest gowns nre
made to conform to these re
quirements. Today's style Is
a picture of a real Parisian
faBhlon, with Its distinction of
line anil simplicity of concep
tion. Paqutn Is the creator of
this fashionable street trot
teur, and It shows his artistry
at Its best.
Navy blue serge of a very
fine weave Is used as the ma
terial, with trimmings of
military braidings and a
smart bayadere sash. The
high collar and vestee on the
front of the bodice Is made
of white pique. The skirt
falls In veritable ripples at the
feet, with Imitation silts at
either side, outlined with
motifs of blue braiding. The
military boots accentuate the
martial Idea, with their side
closings and practical lines.
Helps for the
Housekeeper
The gas stove should be
cleaned once every week.
Remove all bars and wash
In strong soda water.
Wash the top of the stove
and clean burners, cleaning
out the little holes with a fine
skewer or piece of wire.
Wash the shelves and clean
any enamel linings with
rough salt,
Elacklead" the bars and pol
ish the brass taps, rub up
steel portions with emery

When whipping cream, add
three or four (not more) drops
of lemon juice, and it will
soon become thick.
To remove scratches from
silver, mix a little putty pow

a Apply this to the

Save the scraps of candles,
tie them up in a white cotton
bag and when ironing pass
the Iron over the bag. This
will give a gloss to the linen

It necessary to look on the soraia
of things, seeing men and women at
their worst, could maintain a sweet, op
timistic outlook on the affairs of tne
world, untlnged with cynicism or dis
couragement. , . ,. .
Ever since tho establishment of the
Woman's Directory, more than two dec
ades ago, Dr. Charlotte I Abbey, Its
director, has been engaged in the difficult
business of leading back to the straight
and narrow path of virtue girls who have
strayed. Throughout that time, thougn
she has vlsloned life In Its crudest. Ugliest
phases; though sho has seen men and
women descend to tho level of beasts, ncr
faith In thn ultimate regeneration of the
human race has continued, nnd despite
the revolting aspects of many of the cases
which romn to her attention none has yet
been able to dim the light of this faith.
Thousands of girls In trouble have
found their way to her ofllce at 3)4 South
7th street. None has ever been turned
away unaided. All havo profited not only
by her helpful counsel, but havo received
material old In the way of a fresh start
In life.
NONE TURNED AWAY.
Tho Woman's Directory Is a sort of
clearing houso to which women, driven
to tho wall bv crass Ignorance. Inherent
weakness or whatever It Is that makos
nronlA nn -wrotur." coulrl como ln their
I hour of need. The realization of tho ne
cessity for such a place was borne In on
a group of philanthropic Phlladctphlans
back In 1593, who discovered that In tne
whole city thero was not at that tlmo
a placo where a woman nbout to become
a mother could go with the certainty of
being admitted.
When they decided to found such a
plnce. Doctor Abbey, then a young grad
uate of tho Woman's Medical College,
was selected to be the acting director.
Sho has been thero ever since, and only
the countless numbers of women who
have been cheered along tho wny by her
could tell with any degree of truth the
whole amount of good sho has done.
"Tho first purposo for -which the
directory wns founded," sho catd, speak
ing of her work, "was, of course, to help
young women with Illegitimate Infants.
Tho advent of social workers', however,
has been n relief In this direction, nnd
although the original work has not been
dropped, it has given us time for an edu
cational work that Is very essential in
undermining tho causes that lead to de
