The Ways of Women and Fashionable Fads Abroad
A collage of 19th century anecdotes on women ages, habits, and style. It describes Helen Chalmere in Edinburgh rescuing street girls, a New Rochelle actress finding four and five leaf clover as talismans, charity pleas from Johnstown relief, and critical thoughts on child mishabit and lip shapes. It notes a collapsible bonnet invention, a garren tale from a Scottish dominie, and etiquette about garters and luck. The column also touches Priscilla’s place in feminine athletics and global notes from Italy, Persia, and Tahiti with light product plugs.
