The Lady that was Toe I"ashisaable.
Why should we speak of the fashion. in a city where
it is so inconstant. Yesterday's fashion is pee to
day, and that of to-day will be gone to-morrow..
In Paris, those wbc dress according to the fishiest
are always busy, they must not lose a moment in thu
day, there is the morning undress and the morning
dress; day dress, evening dress, and concert or ball
dress; and this is not alt; one mast have •
rooms, fashionable furniture, fashionable can eggs a
horses, Eushionable liveries, and fashionable bigness---
and fashion is always fleeting.
Those people to whom fashion is everything are
extremely unhappy w h en they are found wanting In
the smallest particular. This way of tying the cravat
is no longer in fashion; coats are not buttoned nr 110
high as this now; this hat is not of the DOM shapri
this color is in a bad taste; and this cane is compkte
ly gone by,
If you have been so unfortunate as to go out with
out knowing all 40, youareloet. Run, bide y ourself
quick, before any on sees you, or your reputation is
gone.
Fortunately for the Parisians, they are not aUslasui
to fashion. Men of talent think very little of iu tin
have other things tothink about. Some austere phile• ,
slphers and cynics affect I °despise it; tboy sometimes
carry this too far. Est modes in rebsts.
The following eircumstances betel a lady in Paris;
to whom fashion is everything. This lady was Corti
yams old—she was not handsome--but she often were
things that made her teal' so.
"/t is the fashion." was her favorite saying. "One
cannot go wrong when one is its rite fesisien." '
" But if the fealties is a ridiculous onel" said, Isee.74
friends.
"Fashion can never be ridiculous."
" ff it is unbecoming I"
" It is of no consequence."
" If fashion directed you to expose your tkostr
" / would show it."
T. wear your dresses to your Wheel"
"I would wear them se. I would always bel22ll'e
fashion."
The husband of this lady, whe was by so twessui.ut
her way of thinking, took it into his head one day to
cempwie a Hide piece, sod put it in the Journal sks
Modes, with a picture, representiag a lady whose heir
was dressed with a carrot. Underneath was written.:
"New style of dressing hair, drawn back a 1.
Chinoise; natural can ot."
The lady examined it long and seriously.
" Oh, what a singular bed-drew!—bew new: elf,
bey will wear vegetables in their heir after this!"
Ths husband shrugged his shoulders, exclaitniime—,
"How ridiculous—it is not common senors. jbore
you will not make yourself ridiculous in that. manuer?"'
••Why not, my deal; it is not ugly—not at all ugly.
Besides: it is the fiuthion, and that is enough- I gigot
have a carrot—l must have one immediately--a 60,
large carrot. We are going to the opera—.l must hare
my hair dressed so."
The husband affected to oppose ton the lady, per•
sisisted. She put the carrot in her hair, and went is
the opera.
The effect was extraordinary, but not whet she ex
pected. Everybody laughed, and so very openly, that
it was impossible 'or bee to misunderstand it.
The poor lad!. came home very melancholy, and
quite dinioncerted.
"It is very singular; I . was dressed in the fash
ion, and yet people laugh at me."
"My deur, replied the bakbetui, "all fashions are
not becoming to you I have told you soa thousand
times. You should adopt . your dress to your looks—ts
carrot isnot becoming to a blonde."
Since then, this lady has not followed the !oxidant
so implicitly. Lady's Book.
CHANGE IN CUSTOMS
A clever writer in the new Mirror illustrates the de
generncy of our times, as illustrated in ha reckless
and ostentatioos extravagance, by comparing it with
those days when simple elegance aad frugality' were
the order of the day. The sketch was designed for
the latitude of New York, but there is a universality
in its refiectiols which commend it to attention here.
When Washington was President, hi* wife knit hitt
stockings in Philadelphia, and the mother madedcatgit
nuts and cakes between Christmas and New NOSek;
now the married ladies are too proud to make dough
, nuts; besides they don't know how i so they send to'
Madame Pornpadour,or some other French cake-baker,
and buy sponge-cake for three dollars a pound. Ia
those days. New York was fullof substantial comfotte,
now it is full of splendid misery; then there were no
grey-headed spinsters, (unless they were tigiyintieed,)'
for a man could get married fur a dollar, and been
housekeeping for twenty, and, in washing his clothes
and cooking his victuals, the wife saved more than
it took to keep her. Now, 1 have known a minister
in get five hundred dollars fur buckling a couple; thee .
the wine, cake, and et ceteras, five hundred mete/
wedding clothes and jewels a thousand more; aix er
seven hundred in driving to she springs or some !de
serted mountain; then a house must be got for eight
hnndred dollars per annum, end furnished at an ex
pense of two or three thousand; and when all is done
his pretty wile can neither make a cake nor put an
apple in a dumpling. Then a cook must be got for 20
dollars per month, a chambermaid, a laundress, a
seamstress, at seven dollars each ; and, as the fashion
able folly of the day has banished the mistress from
the kitchen, those blessed helps aforesaid reign su
preme; and while master and mistress are playing
cards in the parlor, the servants are playing the devil
in the kitetrea—thus lighting the candle et both ends
it soon bunts out. Poverty comes in at tie door and
drives love out at the window. It is this stupid and
expensive nonsense which deters so many unhappy
old bachelors from entering the state of blessedness;
hence you find more deaths then marriages.
