New Xobk, October 19. Beauty nn
Rdorned may be adorned the most, but
"beauty unbacked by brains -will not get the
best admiration of men. As intricate and
problematic as a game of chess is a girl's
play to win masculine interest, and some
times, when a few minutes ago Isaw a mem
ber of each sex seated in a public restaur
ant, engaged in conversation, I could im
agine a chess board on the stand between
them, so wary and adroit was every moTeby
the maiden.
Have you ever observed how hard the
mverage girl works to entertain her male es
cort? She is anxiously radiant; fighting
down pauses for dear life; feeling that she
scores one point every time sue laughs, and
Jour whenever she makes him laugh. Her
eves are bright and almost frightened look
ing. Every nerve is braced. She has been that
wav all the evening, too. It is enough to
timber, to be sure. If they have been to
the theater she has racked her brain all
through the acts for bright comments to
make. Between the acts she has literally
scintillated with endeavor to keep him
from going out. If she succeeds she feels
that she has escaped a catastrophe. If she
doesn't she is ready to cry with vexation.
Bhe makes up her mind the evening is a
failure, that he has been bored, and that he
ron't ever ask her again.
the poweb or SIWHJCE.
'Sow watch a girl who knows her busi
ness. She takes it for granted that the
iellow has called, or taken her for a drive,
or to the theater, or what not, to please him
self as well as to please her. She wears, if
he is rather a dashing and successful chap,
an air sliehtly bored, and iays nothing at
nlL A suspicion soon begins to permeate
him that he is stupid. He has always been
regarded as brilliant The result is a
desperate effort on his part to entertain her,
to which she responds by being interested
not violently or enthusiastically, but gen
tly. He soon drops upon his pet conceit, he
thinks he knows all about horses, or racing,
or clothes or women. All she need do now
is to evince a desire to be enlightened, and
a certain degree of stupidity in grasping
the points he is most able to explain. He
is now safe to entertain himself. Ko man
can be diverted so successfully as by being
allowed to talk up his pet subject to some
one who is curious and ignorant It is a
rood rule to keen as silent as possible till
you get a hint at the mental tendencies of
the man with you. Shy men need only to
fancy they are not going to be required to
talk or be brilliant and their tongues
promptly loosen.
EAST TO EJTTEBTAIJT.
A word about the weariness of society, the
shallowness of society men, the relief that a
little quiet is, sets him going. All you
need do then is to keep your eyes earnestly
attentive. It isn't even necessary to com
prehend what he is saying. The man who
is always inclined to be complimentary and
flirtatious is rather more difficult He
won't be entertained unless he has an op
portunity to display his pet accomplish
ments, and a flirtation needs two clever
persons. Even Mr. Frivolity, however,
will talk by the hour about his last con
quest, and how he did it; so you may escape
bein; made the object oi his next Let the
silent man be silent If you can accomplish
this without letting him feel you are ex
pecting him to talk, you will entertain bim
completely. Never appear to exert your
self. Have a big cargo of silent interest on
band. Be adroit at gathering up the
opinions a man lets fall, and returning
them to him in your own words. Nothing
original will please him half so well. Be
ignorant on the subjects he likes to ex
pound, and never permit yourself to seem
bored. Following these rules will save you
trouble and make people find you brilliant,
sympathetic and charming.
WEALTHT WOMEN'S HOBBIES.
Nearlv every woman who studies the
philosophy of beauty has some one article of
personal adornment that she worships as a
devotee does her rosary, and loves as a
mother does her first born boy. "With Mrs.
William Astor it is diamonds. She has a
quart of them if she has a solitaire, and she
would rather sit in her corner boudoir, the
view from which is over and up Fifth ave
nue, and play jacks with the magnificent
jewels than eat She has white stones,
canaries, bine fires, black diamonds and
colorless pebbles that rival the bsautyone
sees in dew drops and snow crystals. They
are all sizes, shapes and cuts, from the "fill
ings" for miniatures, and marquise rings to
the pear-shaped brilliant that hung from a
necklace, quivers and shines and twinkles
like a star that a weary day pins in the
sable drapery of night The settings are so
intricate in construction that etfch can be
adjusted to hold five or six solitaires of vary
ing sizes, and this trick of making jewel
designs fascinates the owner, who, when the
mood is upon her, spends hours with her lap
full of stones and a tray of skeleton pins,
bracelets, lockets, necklaces ind ear and
hnger rings before her playing lapidary.
FBAKK LESLIE'S DELIGHT.
Mrs. Frank Leslie is wedded to her
aprons, many of which were ordered from
the famous manufacturers of Chantilly,
Medici, Valenciennes and point gauze. She
has at least five black lace aprons woven in
one piece that a queen might wear as a fasci
nator about her head, or as a bertha to fill
in the corsage of a court bodice; and any
one of three creamy things, made of old
Portuguese point inserted in a bridal veil,
would be like a solitaire gem in a cluster of
brilliants a jewel. These lovely, magic
webs are worn with evening dresses when
she presides at her tea table, or brews Turk
ish coffee for an "after dinner." Knowing
her fondness for the abbreviated pinafore,
which is rarely larger than a bridal hand
kerchief, the French modistes irom whom
her dresses are imported invariably design
an apron of painted, etched or wrought lace
to harmonize with the toilet, unless meant
for the ballroom.
1IES. CLEVELAND'S COBAIi.
But the fads of other women. Pretty Mrs.
Cleveland is a coral slave. She loves the
color and the calcareous substance as a
miser loves gold or a Moor amber. She is
never in so great a hurry, while shopping,
as to pass a show case wbere it is displayed,
and she hasn't any jewel in her miniature
bureau, excepting the wedding necklace
and ring presented to her by the then Presi
dent of the United States, that she would
not barter away under the temptation of a
rare coral. Now, it is a fact that this jewel
is the least suitable of all for a young lady,
particularly a bride. Dear old ladies tried
to suggest this during her occupancy of the
throne of "Washington, but without success.
and, unmindful ot the smothered criticism,
she went on wearing her corals
at breakfasts, luncheons, low teas
and state dinners, and petting them
to her heart's content during the day. But
now that she has returned to the ranks of
the every day, gracious, reasoning women,
she is likely to be told in plain, untrimmed
decollete terms that she will be much
prettier with a reduction of the anarchistic
bhell, otherwise known as the solid secretion
oi zoophytes.
Mrs. Hicks-Lord pets her laces, which she
keeps in a silk lined box of malacca wood.
She has handkerchiefs by the gross lace
edged, lace frilled and lace all over, made
of rose point, flat and darned patterns. She
has lincerie sets to equip a whole seminary
full of princesses. Claba Belle.

bine grace with strength in our Boys' Clothing. Little or large it's
the same. Nothing is too good quality to make up for the boys
and we see to it that it is tough to the utmost We never had so
many novel ideas in clothing for the youngsters. Never named
such low prices for such high standard goods. We've an exception
ally large and well selected stock and our prices begin at almost any
point We've heaps of
Knee Pant Suits at $1 50, $2. $2 50 and $3,
