Advice to Thin Women.
If not a lover of water, the thin
woman must cultivate a taste for it.
She must drink water upon rising, and
as often during the day and between
meals as possible. Cocoa, milk and a
moderate amount of coffee are all
right. A light luncheon should be
eaten before retiring.
Early to bed is all right, but the
same rule does not apply to rising
unless madam feels herself thoroughly
refreshed by a good sleep. Meat
should occupy a secondnry place in
the daily diet, but vegetables may be
freely indulged in. Hweets are de
cided fatteners. Warm baths and sun
baths will help along the work in
great style. New York Ledger.

Two or three smart young women
at the National Capital are earning
good salaries as private secretaries to
the wives of government ofticinls.
Their duties are various and more or
less indefinable, but are chiefly de
pendent upon the complete acquaint
ance of the secretary with all the so
cial matters of life in the capital, the
exact position and recognition due to
each personage, the rules of govern
ment and diplomatic etiquette, and all
the minor social pitfalls must be looked
for and observed by the secretary,
since her employer, new to Washing
ton and government intricacies, en
gages her chiefly for thnt purpose.
These important duties are, of course,
supplemented by the ordinary corres
pondence work.

1 The great ladies of the fifteenth,
sixteenth and seventeenth centuries
gave far more attention to the adorn
ment and care of their beauty than
women do nowadays, writes Comtesse
de Champdoce in Vogue. The first
thing in the morning was the bath
not the English highly incommodious
tub.but a baignoire shaped like a wood
en shoe hence its name of "sabot;" it
was provided with a cover, and was
brought full of warm and highly scent
ed water into the bedroom. The fair
one used to reoline in this strange
looking object for over half an hour,
and after being dried with perfumed
batiste sheets, would don the most
elegant of negliges, richly and pro
fusely trimmed with lace of priceless
value. The night pillows were re
' moved from her couch aud replaced
by white satin cushions', fluffy with
gauze and. embroideries, aud after
having been rouged, perfumed and
powdered, she would return to her
lace draped bed, and was ready to re
ceive her most intimate friends. At
twelve o'clock the grand dame would
rise and repair to her luxuriously ap
pointed dressing room, where her
women would busy themselves with
her filbert shaped nails, her silky
- tresses, and the adjustment of those
marvelous gowns which have re
mained the model of elegance and
magnificence to the present time. As
a general rule, a young abbe, with
powdered head and dainty clothing,
would sit in the dressing room chat
ting with or reading aloud to the
grand dame.
Old and Vgly at Twenty-Five.
. Somebody told me I've forgotten
who it was, but it was sombotly w ho
knew that the Breton fisherwomen
whom we see reproduced again and
again in the paintings of Jules Breton,
never bathe, and that in consequence
they are old and ugly at twenty-five,
writes Maude Andrews.
. The speaker had visited the Breton
' coast, aud one day, early after her ar
rival, upon demanding a bath of the
waiting maid she was greeted by a
look of absolute awe.
"What?" asked the girl;"suroly you
re not going to bathe? Why, I have
not had a bath in five years."
"I'm not surprised to hear it," an
swered the visitor. "And," she con
tinued to me, "upon my word, she
was the dirtiest creature I ever saw
not her garments, mind you, but her
skin, it was simply grainy with dirt.
It is so queer, this abhorrence of the
French fisherwomen for water. Their
clothes, simply blue cotton stuffs, are
washed spotlessly clean; they wear
caps exquisitely laundered and em
broidered, but their bodies why, its
perfectly shocking. When a fisher
'girl grows into womanhood ber skin,
in ' consequence, becomes old and
weather beaten. .She looses all the
freshness of youth and gets as bard
Mid erustaoeous as any of the things
in the. sea.- And as for the old
. women, why I am positive they have
barnacles .upon them."
I This evidently would make a stay
ttj tM Ureton peasants rawer an'
plcsnnnt to any one but the painters.
They, of course, regard the dirt ac
cummnlnted upon wrinkled old women
as thnt much more of nn addition to
their charms as models. A nice, clean
faced old woman Jias no color tone, no
interest for a pninter. Hhe must be
brown and pretty like a potato In a
dnrk cellar if she would aspire to be
come a model. Atlanta Constitution.
A Comet for ftwlmmere.
A flnnnel bathing corset, imported
from France, is one of the luxuries
which women appreciate, for, not
withstanding all the preaching of the
physical culturists, no woman with an
excess of avoirdupois can afl'ord to
risk her appearance in a loose bathing
snit without stays of some kind. Many
women wear the ordinary linen cor
set, with steels, but this is a poor
practice, for several reasons. The
principal objectiou is the fact that the
steels rust niter the first wenriug. Be
sides this, the corset tlinf is mnde for
ordinary wenr is too at iff ntitt harsh to
admit of the motions necessary iu
swimming.
The flannel corset is stiffened with
double sets of whalebones that is, two
whalebones sewed together in each
groove. It is made of cream white French
Annuel, which is soft and warm for
bnthing. There is no steel in front,
and the corset is fastened in the back
with straps sewed on each side of the
back and slipped through a slit on the
opposite edge. The straps, after be
ing passed through the slits, are
brought down and fastened with but
ton und buttonhole in front.
It requires the very best shrunk
flnnnel and is mnde double. One and
a hnlf yards should be enough to make
it, and for a pattern one has only to
cut one front a dress waist or from
one's ordinary corset, taking care,
however, to make the one for bnthing
nbout two sizes larger than that for
other purposes. Make grooves for
the whalebones in the same place as
in other corsets, omitting the steel in
front, sewing iu gussets to support the
bust.
At the back, between the double
row of w hnleboiie on each edge, make
nn up and down slit like a buttonhole,
about two ami a hnlf inches long, to
admit of the strap. The strap is not
sewed directly to the edge of the cor
set, but is secured with a gusset
formed of three smaller straps. A
bone button is sewed in front and the
strap is buttoned to it. The straps are
better when made of flannel, but linen
will serve if there is not enough flan
nel left to make them. New York
Herald.
Fashion Notes.
Leather now may be had in all colors
to match all gowns.
Belts of all kinds are preferred an
inch and a quarter wide.
The harness belts with severely
plnin buckles are considered very
stylish.
Black silk belts are most becoming
to stout figures, as they fit closely to
the form.
China silk is much used for under
wear now, and lovely and durable gar
ments are tbe result.
Liberty silks run all the others
hard, but the lighter and more grace
ful qualities require a taffeta lining,
which adds to the expense.
Low shoes and golf stockings are
being worn by wheelwomen, who have
discovered that the high boots are par
ticularly warm at thiB season.
Jeweled and enameled belts are
dressy, bnt should never, under any
consideration, be worn with cotton
shirt waists or cotton dresses.
Taffetas gain in favor, for all there
are some of them that won't wear well
enough to pay for making them up, to
say nothing of the cost of the silk.
The solitaire diamond still reigns
supreme as the engagement ring,
though occasionally, w hen money is
no object, a large ruby takes its
place. Opal rings are much iu vogue.
In fact, opals used in any way are very
popular at present.
India silks in quaint, barbaric de
signs are being used for bodices of the
bandanna order, but lead the observer
to suspect that some of these st unning
mixed silk bodices, draped in very
open grenadine, posed last year as un
draped "bandanna" waists. If you
have a bandanna waist, that's a hint
worth while.
The number of graduation frocks of
taffeta is surprising, considering the
prejudice in the favor of muslin. The
use of satin in combination with taf
feta is new, and many white gowns
made of these two materials, with fin
ish of mull, are exquisite. Much be
ruffled white taffeta petticoats ore
quite the dautiest wear,
A new setting is an old idea revived
and makes very beautiful ring. The
diamonds used are very small and
stud the gold ring on both sides so
that from the outside of the hand no
gold is seen. For example a ring
formed of turee opals set in row, will
have the tiny diamonds starting from
each side of the opals, which makes
the ring maoh more effective than if
the gems were set entirely with gold.

Steering a Hteatnshtp.
Oustav Kobbe bos an article entitled
"Steering Without a Compsiw" in the
St. Nicholas. Mr. Kobbe soys:
The degree of "A. B." Is not con.
fined to college graduates. Aboard
ship it means "able-lodled" seaman.
Every nautical A. B. knows bow to
box the compass" and how to steer by
It; but you will be surprised to learn
that no good helmsman will steer by a
compass unless all other things fail
htm. Among those "other things" are
tho horizon, the wind, the wake of the
ship, the stars the soundings, and the
Hue of the surf when running along
the coast. And so the able-bodied sea
man, when a greenhorn takes his trick
at the wheel, hands over the helm to
him w'.th this caution: "Keep your
head out of the bmnncle!" .
I am apeakng of sailing-vessels.
Steamers, especially those that travel
on regular routes, steer by. compass.
They "run their courses" from point to
point from light-house to light-house,
light-ship, day-mark, buoy, bell or fog
whistle. In thick weather they know,
taking wind and tide Into considera
tion, bow long they should stand on
each course, and try nerer to pasa the
signal" at the and of It When they
have seen or beard that signal, they
start on the next "run" or course. Tirla
la called "running the time and dis
tance " I have gone Into Halifax an a
steamer that met wWh thick fog from
Oape Cod down. Ono morn teg the
Captain said to me:
"Wo ought to Dick un Sambro In half
an hoifr."'
Burely enough, about barf an hour
later we heard, through the fog, a can-non-r.hot,
the distinguishing fog-signal
of the Sambro light-station on the
Nova boot tan coast.
Real sailors the Jack tars that man
'syfls actually prefer, aa I
have, said, to steer by signs rather
than by compass; and there are tunes
when the steamer-pilots hare to.
