f "uo E FROM HAND SEWING Shirt Waist the Resouroe of a Mother and Daughter, P ONE WAY TO WIN IN THE WORLD I Basiness Career Neginuing in & Fae- tery and Now (o NEW YORK, March §.—"It is twelve years sirca we came to New York in search of | work and a little more than ten since we decided to devote our time to hand sew- ing,” A woman who bought and furnished | @ home in a Long Island vjllage from her earnings with her needle confided to an- other woman wage earner. “We make a speclalty of shirtwaists, and for the last five years have not made another garment The work 1s not hard, and the materials are always beautiful and the styles inter- esting. 1 know that most people deplore the fact that band sewing requires you tof sit all the time, and I h had several | persons remark, with apparent surprise that my back was quite straight, Now as 1 knew the business sewlrig by hand in| pleasant surroundings is much to be pre-| ferred to sewing by machine in any sur- roundings and far shead of most work that women do In shops or offices. “Of eourss it was hard to get in. We had no friends to push us, or even give us letters to Influential people. The only person we knew when we came to New York was a friend who was taking a course to become & Jurse, so what we have done has been accomplished entirely with- out influence. “The day of our arrival both my mother and 1 applied for employment in & shop and falled to get it. The next day we started out ufresh and took in every store gn Twenty-third stroet, then down Sixth $uvenue. At each place we wers turned away for one cause or another, usually because we had had no experlence. “Finishing with a Broadway department #tore we began with the factories. The third we called at happened to make under- wear and we wers taken on as finishers, We worked in that place, with foul air, poor light and so near together that an extra movement and you encroached on another woman's space, for four months We had come from home with a scanty supply of clothes, but the conditions ap- peared to us so bad that mother sald we must save every cent that was not needed for food and lodgings. It was a very wise decision, for at the end of the fourth month we were dropped, without an hour's warning. When mother asked for an ex- planation the forewoman told her it wi the slack time. ""We set out at once looking for more work, Because we had been sewing in a factory we thought we would be able to get Jnto the dressmaking department of one of the large department stores, where we heard conditions and wases were much better. Much to our surprise when we sald that we had been finishers in a fac- tory we were turned off, and very curtly, Nobody would even give us & trial after learning of our factory training. “This went on not for one day, not yet one week, but for two solid months. Every day we would go out and hunt for work only to return at night unsuccessful. At length our landlady suggested that We try the laundries and restaurants. We took her advice and within three days I Wwas waltress o a restaurant and mother Wwas mending for a first-class home laun- dry, “Our work may not have ween as ele- Vvated soclally as finishing in a factory for ready-to-wear underwear, but it had Its Advantages. The advantage in mother's case was being able to bring her work home and in mine it was tips. They were never very large tips, no day did they amount to more than B0 cents, but think what it means to & factory hand to make even 10 cents extra. “Our health and spirits ymproved so much in our new positions that we actually had time and ambition to plan for the future. Mother was sure we could get better quar- Lre in the country for less money, and as her employer liked her work well enough to_promise to keep her supplied for the entire summer we moved to Long Island, end I became & commuter, Mother seldom came In, as 1 always dellvered and called for her work. Bhe'dld, however, come In one day and looked around the shops to such advantage that she got an jdea that she might make hand-made garments beautiful as some of those she saw, pro- Vvided she had the materfal, “The next week she made another trip Into town and took with her samples of her hand sewing. She spent all that. day &oing from shop to shop trylng to get work and the best she could do was to get materlals for one shirt walst. These ma- terlals weren't given her, she was required vay for them, and in case the walst dn’t come up to the standard of the shop he wasn't to get her money back. A8 my hand sewing is. better than mother's I declded to make that waist The price offered was fair and I was get- Uing very Ured of the restaurant. 1 stayed away one day and did the walist. The next day mother came to the res. taurant jubllant. The walst had been ac- cepged and on her giving the manager of the¥laundry as reference they had given her six more w They were to be fin- ished and delivered the next week. ‘There was nothing to do but for me to Elve up my place as waitress, and I d.d it 1 can't tell you how happy I was that Week to be able to stay at home and work With the prospect of earning what to us Rppeared 4 large amount in one week. I dave never worked in a shop or apywhere except at home since and I never wish to, 1 have never spent a night in the oty dince and I never will if I can avold it. We lived in rented rooms, doing our own work, of course, for the pext two year We had very few clothes, but the rooms were comfortable and our food was the best. yet we managed to save enough by the beglnning of the third year the to pay first Installment on' this place. “The house was not new and st the time we took it was much out of repalr, but rbers ey SANATORIUM Ry This ipstitution is the only one in the central west with separate bulldings ul:::w in thelr own ample grey yeot entirely dis- uet and rendering It possible to ity cases.

That ls the way we managed with the garden. For the first our very back steps for n few bushels of potatoes and fresh vegstables, Then as work kept on and our savings increased we rented of the land reserving a wide atrip for & back yard and a few lowers and vegetables (hat mother and 1 managed to work ourselves less ““When at last we made the last payment hands we. began torts think of other com- cultivated came the buy- Ing of & few hens, The next year we both began to wish for a cow very expensive cow, beeause we hadn't t! price for a pedigreed animal, but mother being accustomed to cows all her young life was sure this one would be a good milker If #he had tne right treatment with her first calf. “Having & cow dnd chick we no longer rent year we plant one-half of ft, |a other half for the cow to pasture on and the chickens to run In. We raiss all the CRES we use and every week or 5o have a dozen or more to sell.

Her eyes were falling and the old wanager 1oft, As my shirtwalst business gives us a steady income, 1 persuaded her to time to caring for the place “If we had remained in town 1 dars s laund devote her |we could have made just as good shirt- waists, but certainly we would not have had as good health, nor been able to buy ourselves a home.

They ship me the materials by express and when walsts are ady 1 return them in the same way. 1 don't go to town onee a month, and when 1 do it is more from senso of duty than because I either want to or have to. “Now that we have become known to the shop people T have been the means of gotting work for several friends. There York and at fair prices once vou have proved yourself competent and reliable. “If we had started out at hand sewing when we first came 0 New York we wouldn't have had half as hard a time as we did. That s the trouble with so many untrained women who come to get work: they don't know where there Is a demand and where the fleld is overerowded.” Biennial of the General Federation EDNESDAY evening, May 11, has been announced as the dato for the formal opening of the blenpial convention of the Gen- oral Federation of Women's Clubs.

New Yorkers are likely to shy at any such decided pe- cullarity in dress for a while, and it took tentative efforts for two years to get the fashion well settled. “IU's the mode all right now,” sald the head salesman in a hat shop opposite the new publie library, thing to hear my old customers telling me their sizes nowadaye and making them out | about two numbers bigger than they really are.

It is reproduced here as an inter- esting bit of hisiory for those who are ad- mirers of the “Elijah,” that mighty ora- torio of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. The clipping 1s headed, “The First Performance of Mendelssohn's ‘Elijah’ " and reads: I only remember that I went as early as possible to the rehewrsal, and (hat | was admitted on Miss Hawes' order. I had a seat by the wide of the organist, Dr, Gaunt- let, whom I assisted afterward by pulling out the organ stops fos him, and full of de- lightful excltement I awaited the entrance of the great Mendelssohn. How well 1 recall that small, lithe fig- ure, the head rather large, face long and oval, eyes prominent, but full, lai and lustrous, beaming with the light of genlus. 1 followed every motion and gesture, and in breathless expectancy, waited for him to lift his baton. 1 cannot hope to de- seribe my musical impressions and emo- tions on this occasion, since someone has aptly said that ‘music begina where lan- guage leaves off.” but I remember well how he drilled the chorus, making them repeat many times the Recitative in the tirst part, which illustrates the talking to- gether of many people, and his eviden wish to give the effect of & confusion of voloes, Once or twice during the rehearsal | he eame up to Dr, Gauntlet to say; *Noi so0 loud; push in such and such a stop, | But ‘as'soon as his back wa | Gauntiet would say to me quickly: “Pull | them out agmin, pull them out again.’” He was obliged to play from the full score, as no organ part had,beem written out and his own discretion’ was all he could rely upon in mapy places, but Mendelssohn had perfact confidence in his judgment, as well ‘a8 admiration for his abflity as an organist and musician, and especially se lected him to be the organist on this oc | casion. To yemember that I so far assisted in {this first performance of the “Riljah,” even in so small & way, | & source of satisfaction to m y | was the contralto, and the tenor, Lockey, whose singing of "If With Al Your Heart, will ever remain with me most exquisite thing I ever heard. * & * The sensation produced by the Ilast chorus of the first part of the “Elijah," “Thanks Be to God" was truly wonder- ful.

The derbles as well the silk hats remain about the same.' Another detall in man's dressing ls con- cerned with the shoes. High polish on shoes is distinetly bad form. The whole of the shoe, however, Including the uppers, must be of just the same degree of dull black, This style is of course English, and is due to a dull polish used in English houses, 1t is applied by the valet just as it 1s here and the use of such & polish is sup- posed to show that the wearer is dressed valet and does not depend on casual on the street corners. In this en the incapacity of the house servants is copled. It is because the ser- vants do mot find it possible to keep the polish off. the upper part of the boots that it also appears there. 5o this fault that would probably be criticised severaly in one's own servant is copled as a shade of British modishness that the New Yorker cannot afford to ignore. As a matter of tact, most of the shoes cleaned in this way are attended to by the valets of the nen who wear them. This dull polish, which comes out of & stone bottle, has only its modishness to recommend it Another midwinter hint from London proves the return of the raglan to favor but in a somewhat moditied form. The raglan craze had one year of great favor. It was so overdone during that perlod, however, that for the few years following it was not possible to find a raglan coat in New York, despite the comfort of the pat- tern for every day wear. The demand for the raglan gradually became too strong for the taflors to ignore and the result Wwas its complete restoration to faver, but with a difference. The raglan is now @ |coat for rough wear only. It s a style made up ouly in rough goods and intended to be worn on very cold or stormy days. | No one would think of suggesting the rag- |1an style for a dress overcoat of any kind. So popular ls thls way of cutting & comt | tor rough wear that it has probably come | to stay. More striking Is another fashion that | came here via Londori but has its origin {in Parls. It marks another attempt to introduce & color note into man's evening dress, and seems destined to fall, as they all have among men of refinement and 80od taste. The present attempt is confined to the waltcoat. “They are in corded silk in the darker tones of red, green, mauves or yellow,” writes a correspondent, “and usually with | @ black background, the golor running in narrow perpendicular stripes. They are not unlike what In England and America one s accustomed to see worn by liveried | footmen. The walstcoat 1s cut veny high, | being but little lower than the present waistcoats worn with American sack suits, All of them are single breasted with four §0ld or fancy buttons, while the deep shawl lapels are almost as wide as those worn | with & dinner jacket.” Ot course such an exotfc fashion may |appeal to the Russian grand dukes and |others who set the styles in Paris, but the reception of this mode In London dogs not promise any great success for it. Nor will there be any greater cordiality | towara another style in evening dress that is traveling in this direction via the Brit- ish capltal. In Paris, pumps are no longer in the highest favor for evening dress. The edict against them has been spoken, jand high buttoned patent leather boots are to be worn. One result of this novelty ls said to be the disappe nce of the black open work and embroldered socks, Heavy black silk, without design of any kind, are the only ones that may with propriety show over the high boot. But heel pumps are still regarded as the only apropriate evening shoe. f e e Dip! Down on the west there's a 'long- shore saloon where they set up & huge sohooner for § cents. When § o'clock blows the place turonged by the thirsty, fortl- fying themselves for the long walk hom One night a huge Irishman in & red tiannel shirt, open at his brawny chest and rolled up over swelling biceps, stood in the crowd and tapped his nickel on the bar. Just as the barkeeper set out the schooner the swing-door burst open and & little Irjshman rushed In, flung his coat on the floor, threw his hat beside it, and, Jumping on them, yelled in a high voice aulvering with rage: “‘Which one of yez beat | Murphy 7' | The big Irishman in the red shirt tapped his chest. ‘“'Twas me!" he bellowed hoarsely. “Uhe little Irishman whirled round. “Gee!" he piped. “Ye did him up foine,”—Lippin- cott's Magazine. up poor Pat w Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy | was when he served once upon a time on i@ board as a judge of election, for which he recelved payment on paper; when he |went to get the paper cashed, he found | that his “property’ had been taxed to such |an extent that there was no cash coming |to him.
