Childitke. In the revival of the gentler graces and essentially feminine pursuits that have come in with the restraint of the season's softly clinging gowns and the refining ten, aerneos of delicate laces the old-fashioned game of croquet promises to be revived as a formidable rival of the more amnia. and - 41144 er, L. THE CROQUET GIRL. exacting lawn tennis now popular. Oa the lawns of fashionable residences the croquet ground is prepared beside the tennis court, and the finalesiecle girl will forsake the racquet for the mallet, the good camaraderie of the court for the quiet flirtation of the shaded croquet ground. The tennis girl has been a piquant and pleasing figure on the award. She has won the championship over the very men that rictiouled the idea of her playing be- cause she was a girl. She has appropriated his shirt and "galluses," and worn them with a grace they never knew before. She has disciplined herself to heroically enjoy sunburn and fatigue, straight bangs and a peeled nose. But she has diacovered that it doesn't pay. What possible satiafaction can there be in a morning devoted to tennis with the man you like separated from you by a net? What possible recompense for getting tired and het apd cross just to hear some one say you play very well for a girl ? Now the croquet groundlipossesses possi- bilities for little galantries and the inter- change ot sweat confidences in the intervals of the game. It permits the wearing of dainty and s.ttractive gowns, providing they are not too long. The balls have a charming predilection for obscure corners and ont- of- the -way places, where two people can be a blissfully long time in searching for them. The gracious curves of woman's contour, the slenderness of a pretty hand, and the arch of a shapely foot are never seen to such a good advantage as when a pretty girl plants her number three slipper on a refractory ball to croquet a rivas or assist a friend. Besides one isn't spoiled for everything but a bath and a hair curler with a single game of croquet. Croquet is not incompatible With the flower laden picture hat which is so much more becoming than the anor maaculine or the yachting cap. Croquet permits, too, the shade of a softly tinted para - THE TENNIS SUIT. sol beneath which a fair face grows fairer and dark eyes gleam with. softened danger- ous lustre. Finally, a man plays tennis be- cause he likes the game. He plays croquet because he likes the girl. Hence its super- iority. The tennis girl wears a dress of f3annel. If she is artistic she will make it of blue with a crimson yoke embroidered with the balls and racquets of the game. She will have a deep band about the bottom of the skirt embroidered in like manner, and the sleeves to the elbow will be of crimson. A soft scarf of silk will belt the waist and flutter as she runs. The croquet girl will wear a gown of India silk or muslin of delicate green, like the flrst tender shoots of the willow. It will be powdered and sprayed with all the flowers that ever bloomed and several that never will bloom save in the fancy of the designer. It will be softly frilled with lace everywhere and a -flutter with ribbons. It will be accompanied with a picturesquely drooping hat of fine lace, straw, mull, or lace laden with flowers. The floppy Leg- horn hat with a long gauze scarf and two or three big thorny American Beauty roses will be seen often on the croquet ground. And whatever she may neglect she will wear her finest stockings and best shoes, her prettiest rings and her most persuasive alluring smile. She will be slow and languidiy graceful in her motions, just a trifle helpless and dependent ; she will try not to play a better game than the man she plays with, and she will not be too eager about the results to listen to foolish things he will say about how perfectly de- licious she is in her new role. The Household Servant Problem. Prof. Lucy M. Salmon, says the New York Sun, has devoted much time and thought to the study of the domestic ser- vant problem, and she eonaiders the chief difficulty in the way of systematic and sat- isfactory domestic service is that it offers no rewards in the way of promotion and little remuneration for superior ability. The most hopeful phase of the situa.tion is the establishment of schools of training for domestie service. Nursing, which is now a favorite and well-paid occupation for women, was, previbbil to its organisation as a diatinet profession or calling, rarely en - Med itt by wome with stacient ability . .

HOLLAND'S LITTLE QUEEN. Playfui and Childlike With a Boy Who Hay Be Her Husband. Her Serene Majesty Wilhelmina. Helene Pauline Marie, Queen of the Netherlands, who was the center of attention in Europe last week, is a winsome little girl of eleven years, and playful and childlike in her ways when not oppressed and strained into unnaturalness by the pomp and circum- stances of royal display, although some persons might suppose that an eleven -year- old girl would be unlike other children of that age because she happened to be a queen. She came into public notice at the begin- ning of this month through her visit to the Emperor of Germany, at Potsdam, and the elaborate entertsiumente and displays in her honor in Germany. There was, of course, a political significance attached to her visit, and it was common report that the purposie was to arrange the preliminaries for her marriage. Ernperor William would like to sea Holland and the rich Dutch col- onies a part of the German empire. The Dutch ports would be of especial advantage to Germany, and the marriage of Queen Wilhelmina to the Crown Prince, now ten years of age, and who will be Emperor some day, if he lives, would be the best way to accomplish the desirable end. The children THE LITTLE QUEEN. received every opportunity of becoming ac- quainted, and they played just like chil- dren, of course. Queen Wilhelmina was born on Aug. 31';.' 1880. Her father, William III., died on Nov. 23, 1890. The little Queen studies hard and plays a great deal, and her chief delight is to work and play in her garden, pet her tame pigeons, and ride her pet pony. It is said that she is a very good girl, and not wilful, as she might be, and:as the young King of Spain is. Guidance. One of the most valuable possessions is a wisely controlling principle. It insures anyone anywhere against fatal loss. It makes one equal to the fortune of much or the fortune of little. It keeps fear or dread at a distance. It is surer than the securi- ties of learning, wealth, friends, and the rest. It survives all the shocks and is es- pecially present when all other reliances have fled. Thinkers of every age and land have seen this, and have sought to steady themselves by something. This something has been a faith, taking hold of the revealed or of the imagined, accepting a supreme, an authori• ty, whose will to do as the great object of life. Studying barbarian or civilized, heathen or Christian, there appears almost as much in one as in another a confession of the use of a standard or a leader, something or some one to go by. There is, unquestionably, a common agreement at this, a general recognition of the necessity of a guide, a controlling prin- ciple ; whether or not consisting in or re- lated to a superior intelligence, need not be said in this place. Supposing it to be held that the common agreement is eimply the result of experience, this affords reason enough for regarding it. Why should we accept the lessons of ex- perience in furnishing ourselvea with pro- tection against cold or heat, and not heed the monitions that bid ns be independent of all that is not good? We are as that for which we live. We share the fate of vrhat we pursue. Selfish- ness digs a grave, and is forgotten. Bene- volence builds a monument and is remem- bered. They who stipulate for the pound of flesh live to see that it was a hateful bar- gain. They who would suffer wrong rather than do wrong live forever.—The House- keeper. Dots Abodt Women. Mme. Popp, the only woman journalist in Belgium, died lately, aged eighty-one. In 1866 the press banquetted her on her golden wedding with journalism. Honors conferred by the king entitled her to a mili- tary funeral. The child Queen of Holland, aged ten, takes delight in planting and cultivating flowers, feeding chickens and doing pastry work in the kitchen. Through the influence of the Princess of Monaco, the gambling establisment at Monte Carlo is to be converted into a hos- pital for consumptives. Typewriting is so pleasing to Queen Vic- toria that household orders and lists of guests are typewritten. A Dress Hint. A pretty costume for a young lady has a skirt of wool trimmed at the foot with a bias band of gobelin velvet. The skirt is lightly held in place at the waist in front and is gathered behind. The waist 18 cut round, gathered before and behind at the shoulders and waist, and opens both in the front and in the back over as plastron of gobelin velvet. A long sash of gobelin vet. vet is knotted at the side. The straight aleeves are made of this velvet and tritinnail ith puffed if:loiters. 4:1 So quickly here during these warm days may be that there i$ plenty of room and plenty of goods, but the great secret offt all lies in the one word price.
