This liberal-minded gentleman also informs me that “gadding the ‘gtreets docs a woman no good,” and “her place is in tho home," should be ‘y-ade to take his own medicine in order to really appreciate how excellent ‘it ts, I repeat the words that roused my correspondent’s ire. Housework wil! not take the place of exercise in the opon air. if 2 man thinks he can get as good physical results from working at his furnace sifting ashes or putting the cellar to rights as by a brisk walk in the ‘bright sunlight and fresh air, I have no objection to his passing all his Mlelsure time under ground. A woman doesn’t do much work in the lower regions of the house, but that’s the only place I can think of where a man 4s really useful, so it must serve as a parallel. Only a very selfish and thoughtless husband would wish to deprive his wife of the diversion and Ddenefit of out-of-door exercise. Housework ts all right. A woman fs really better off who attends to at Qcast part of her household duties each day. But housework only exercises certain muscles, It is performed too often in an overheated kitchen. And the housewife in our cities at least does her work in a hurry, Where is always a nervous straining to get through. For physical exercise to be beneficiai the mind should be at rest. The average housewife will find her spirits and her health greatly im- | @roved by a daily brisk half-hour’s walk. Deep breathing should be con- | wtantly practised on these walks. An excellent: plan 1s to inhale slowly while taking seven steps, then ex- Mhate while taking the same number. A daily walk and the practice of deep breathing will often cure in- omnia, that torment of the too-much domesticated housewife. Let every woman attend to her household duties. But let her also un~ Worstand that exercise in the fresh air each day ts her duty, and should be preligiously performed. THE WRONG LETTER. BY K. HARRIS.

A stole of lace that forms a wide, flat collar, nerrows till it gets below the waist line and finally broadens into two long tabs when it touches the hem of the gown, has been developed from the long stole pieces of fur which the New York woman is about to discard. These new stoles are made of the heavier laces in ecru or gray shades, and will be very effective when worn with the elaborate spring frock of the Easter girl. Sometimes they come in all-over lace patterns and again have a foundation of ecru Iinen with elaborate border of Irish crochet lace. Of this order is the long stole photographed with the smaller collars, by courtesy. of the Simpson-Orawford Company. On a statuesque beauty nothing could be more graceful than one of For the shorter woman, however, one of the new Yak or wool lace shoulder capes, made in a floral and spider web de- These capes are cut to fit around the sign, would be more appropriate. stock of the gown and are to be worn of ornament only. In stocks, unlined collars of Russian lace, with a braid tle of pink or pale blue crepe de Chine, drawn in and out of the lace interstices at the bot- tom of the collar and tied in a butterfly bow in front, are shown for sem!- dress occasions, Rather startling in their contrast of color are the cherry turnovers, a title more suggestive of a culinary delicacy than of a young woman's collar, These are the little neck pieces of linen known as turnovers of white linen embroidered in red cherries and green leaves. ‘The new Bishop stocks have one point or tab in front instead of two, which prevailed last season.
