\ THE WORLD: TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 26, 1901. By Mme. Louise. The Evening World places at the disposal of its feminine readers the services of a very competent dress- maker who will assist and advise them in planning new dresses and making over old ones. Address all letters on this topic to ‘Mme. Louise, Evening World Home Dressmaking Department.” Dear Mme. Louise: Tha taffeta silk. The skirt 19 a plain one, which I would Ike to a!

There is a story of Carlyle discoursing eloquently on this tople In a gallery of Greek sculpture, where the chins of the statues had been rounded gracefully to sat- Isfy artistle requirements. Churchill with his Jaw, his sharp tongue and his kangaroo agility, acquired in the sudden shifts of the Devery days, is apparently well equipped for effective work. = Prof. Schnetder, of the Northwestern Unt- versity, says that the stiff white shirt bosom of masculineattireisasurvivalof the bronze breast- plate of the anelent Romans, All articles of per- sonal adornment, the Professor says, had thelr origin In the decorative tastes of primitive bar- barlans—plumed hats and fur boas as well, Per- haps the boa ts a symbolic survival of the early days in Eden, qa “Von Flatzensharps ts singing ‘Let Me Like a Soldier Die!" “If had my gun with me I'd oblige him, all right.”* —— In Marinette, Wis., a deer broke into Mrs. Maluay's kitchen, smashed the dishes, demol- ished furniture and then took to the woods.

Clothes have always cut a large figure in diplomacy. There are those who belleve that the tact of the World's Fair diplomat who wore a dress suit to an official breakfast and shocked American social proprieties was ultimately re- sponsible for the large crop of ribbons of the Legion of Honor subsequently bestowed on {lus- trious Chicagoans by the French Government. —_ + One of the thIn ums were unknown years ago." ail players use to model “I hear that chr in this country 1 Tren what did fo thelr haircuts afte ee ei Ten of the twenty-two brawny young men who fought for the glory of Harvard and the honor of old Yale on the football fleld at Cam- bridge Saturday are more than six feet tall, with an average weight of nearly 200 pounds, and three of them are twenty-elght years old.

Maxims made for plain milllonatres in the long ago are out of date in the approaching billionaire era. The $60,900,000 to which this baby is heir will have swelled to a round hundred million and more when he attains his majority.

J,," who writes to The Evening World that he will be obliged to sell his house and leave town because the “nine- five” express no longer stops at his station may avert this step if he will cultivate an intimate acquaintance with the road's general manager or buy enough of its stock to become one of the Board of Directors. There is no other way for him. It Is only city people before they take up their residence In the country who are so Ingenuous as to suppose that suburban roads are run for commuters. As a case in point: For nine months in the year the Lackawanna road has a morning express known as “the eight forty-five” serving Summit. During June, July and August the train makes no stop there. Three or four millionaire bondholders are then “in residence” at Bernardsville, a station further out, and the express Is rushed through for their comfort to the inconvenience of a hundred com- muters, The Summit commuter, being a phi- losopher from force of circumstances, has ceased to kick at this Injustice. — ‘A woman 1s only as old as she looks, ou poor thing!"
