weddod women should be is brond and

should regulate itself. Tho cord of
loyalty, binding love can not be stretch
ed very fur without breakiug ; and when
it breaks, love is released. A man and

Creole Women.
The Creele woman is prettier than the
Frenoh woman. There is a climatic in
fluence in America which refines features
and gives delicacy to tho complexion.
This is especially tho case in Louisiana,
where finely formed women are often
found to be the descendants of ignoble,
looking ancestors. The light olive ti ot
of the woman seems to have been paint
ed over a ground color of blushing lako,
aud this pinkish creaminess of the skin
saves it from dullness and sallownoss.
In a word, there is something of that
traaspareoy for whioh painters aro
always seeking.
She inherits from her mother over the
Bea the physical characteristics of round
limbs and delicate extremities, with a
figure something slighter?another
i'fleet of climate, also that sense of art
with which the pooplc are born, but can
never entirely acquire. From the same
source come her coquetry and her grace
of speech aud action, but modified. She
docs not wear crude oolors or awry
shapes; nor does she oxpress herself
with unseemly gesture or discordant
toues. Her dress is rather sombre than
gay, and her carriage simple and conven
tional?for they all walk alike. Smooth
ness and graceful propriety archers. In
a word there is au absence of angles in
her general conduct.? Galaxy.

The fashionable umbrella ist now more
attenuated than evor.
Ladies, hats this season consists chiefly
of two bows of ribbon and a stiff ostrich
feather.
The Eliiabethan ruffs are assuming
proportions more ponderous and awe.-in -

Cameos have gone out of fashion for
jewelry, having been succeeded by en
taglios?antique, if possible.
It is fishiouable now to have all the
maid servants in tho household, to wear
aas?, ?rter' the English style.
Ladies just from Europe wear their
hair very plain and low on the ucck?a
style all the isgo in Paris.
Fringes are to be very fashionable as
trimmings this wiuter. Some of the
handsomer sorts are as expensive as fine
laces.
The war against gilt and imitation
jcwelery continues furiously. As a re
sult, very little of it is worn by would

Peacock blue is the new color for
