The new dresses, with their wide fluted skirts, take so much material, and costly trim- mings are used in such lavish profusion, that to fashionably dressed more than ever to be expensively dressed, Nor does it follow, because ch toilette has increased in costliness, that a smaller number will be made to sufti and thus strike a reasonaole balan Indeed, to women of small means the dress problem is a vexation this year, instead of the frivolous pastime it is genorally con- sidered, especially by the ungrateful masculine observer for whose delight most of the trouble is taken. And yet it is said that economy, rather than extravagance, in dress is what has made the French women the best dressed the world. Tt is by the caveful study of one’s own peeuliavitios, the caution und good judgment essential to the woman who may not order a second gown if the first proves a failure, the attempt at inality and individuality rather than mero costliness, the personality of the careful selection rather than the blind acceptance of the modiste’s va- garies, that the finest results in costumes are obtaine ) let the women of small means tuke heart of grace and ue of sore »u In these busy house cleaning and mov- 10g days any plan that will aid the mind in remembering the hundred and one things t must be done will be hailed vith delight by many a woman, who, inking her work successfully accom- plished, is quite upset by a thought that reveals some duty or necessary task left undone. To help along our tricky memories a little written list is of the grea t ser ice. Set down from time to time as it oceurs to you what is to be don and mark it off when the deed is accomplished. In keeping a memo- randum of what is to be done, there is an endless amount of quict satisfaction to be derived from watching its gradual shortening as one by one the little troublesome and worrying matters are oss 1 off both from paper and from the mind. Perhaps the woman with a house full of little ones, or some ‘“Martha,” w ried in mind axd body housckeeping cares, will say that they have not time to jot. down everything as it occurs to them and would rather trust to memory than go to all the fuss of writing out a statement of their needs and require- ments. At first it may come hard, but in a very little time the list will prove one of the greatest household aids and you will wonder how you ever did with- jout it, e The wedding gowns for the brides of spring all smack of the style of those worn by the brides of 1830, the fashionablo Easter weddings cele- brated in Boston the bride's dress was of duchess brocade, the skirt cut with full court train, encircled with a fine shell trimming. The bodice, cut postil- ion, was pointed back and Jfront with jeweled garniture of lace caught in front with a cluster of pearls and ex- tending over the shoulders with ample fullness to the waist and caught therve with corresponding fullness. The sleeves were puffed to the elbow, with a slose-fitting cuff to the wrist of the style of 1830. The dress of the maid of honor was white, full flare skirt, iwalking length, trimmed with a series of warcow ruflles. The bodice was low it back and front and trimmed with a double rufle of lace, with short bouffant sleeves. The brides- maids all wore dresses of broche silk of an exquisite shade of pink lavender, a happy digression from the usual pink, blue or yellow gowns, made in the old- fashionad style which is again so popu- 1a skirts full, with erinoline and a slight train; three ruchings around the skirt and a rosette of narrow ribbon on each ruching, so placed as to suggest diagonal line to the waist.

Bishop Williams of Connecticut was conse- quently surprised to get a petition from e inity parishin Seymour, endorsed by a number of the male members asking that the women might have the privilege of yoting on the affairs of the chureh. The veteran bishop, with the old-time courtesy which distinguishes him, pro- tested his regard for the fair practi- tioners, and said that he would be de- lighted so far as he was concerned, but regretted that the canons barred the The women, how are going ht, and the whole question will be brought before the next diocesan con- vention, which meets next month, The result will be awaited with interest by those who do and by those who do not favor the ubiquity of woman as a factor in mattors not strictly domestie. e A Boston paper has adopted a mothod of discouraging the mashers that infost the streets of that city, which is said to work successfully, It has been scarcely possible for ladios to walk on Washing- ton street, it is said, without being ogled, and perhaps addressed, by some of these animals.

In the past half dozen years Mrs, Curtis had been engaged in an unique enterprise.
