For example, a” woman who has been protected and supported all her life suddenly finds it necessary to earn her own bread and sits down to think it over. She isa perfect housekeeper, but the wild thought which skims through her brain of obtaining money in that way is instantly dismissed.

And what true woman will | think anything but highly of this mother | and her work? More attractive to many than this is the hint given us by active, charitable women, which may be carvied out in one'’s own home. Some ladics desired to earn money for a noedy church; one tried bread baking nd the orders poured in far too speedily to be filled.

Arve there too many people in the world? we ask, wearily, sometimes, as ve watch the struggl Nay, rather 00 many who ave trying to fill the vrong niche, too many who make a fal- ve of living because of it.

The skirt, which is full and round, just barely es- capes the floor: at the foot it is finished with fine narrow ‘‘milliner's folds” of white satin:a quarter of a yard above these are three narvow folds, and a quarter of a yard above these is one. The bodice is rouno and belted in with a broad, white satin belt laid in fine folds like those on the skirt; just in front, wherve it fastens, are four white satin ribbon bows, knotted in the square style, so that they look like forget-me-nots themselves. The gown is open at the throat, turned over in very broad revers, faced with the mus- lin and outlinad with Irish lace, that has the stitches necessavy to keep it in place hidden under folds of the satin, reach- | ing quite to the elbows, and below them | fall frills of Irish lace.

Some costly French capes have yokes and collars of gold and jet net, dotted with cabochons, and a few mog are lined throughout with rows of jetted galloon in stripes falling over the cape from the yoke.
