John Graham Brooks Defines TheirRelation —Future of Society.

There Is scarcely anything in the world, even tohappiness, that cannot be bought for money, ac-cording to John Graham Brooks, who yesterdaymorning, at the Hudson Theatre, addressed theLeague for Political Education op "Money andMarriage."

"People say you cannot buy happiness for money,','he said. "It Is a lie. You can buy a great deal ofhappiness for money. You can buy some peace ofmind, though that is harder to get. You can buy abeautiful woman, or two beautiful women. Youcan buy a gartered duke and all his possessions asyou would a piece of blue ribbon. And you canbuy whole shoals of dapper little counts. You canbuy the press. There are very few. even of re-

sleeve Is. of course, quite in accord with thetendency toward the Second Empire modes.Large shawl collars dropping over the tops ofthe sleeves and somewhat compressing; themare much liked, and there are other mo in- Ifichu forms.

Several of the best couturiers are retainingthe short walsted skirts as a feature of theirnew models, but the tops are quite differentfrom those worn with the now passfe Empiregowns. A good example is a gown suitable forthe theatre or the restaurant dinner, for it issupposed to he completed by a hat mad*» of oldblue crepe trimmed with a little velvet in aslightly deeper shade. The skirt is untrimmedand hangs from a high draped belt of velvet.For the top is a little close cape of old lace,

the tint of ivory, bordered all about with velvetand closing to make a pointed deeoUetage at thebase of the throat. The cape is somewhat shortof the elbow, but there are under sleeves ofthe crepe embroidered with silver.

One sometimes sees on the street a short coatof tan or black cloth worn with a skirt of fancywool or velvet. This innovation, for it cenaln'.yis one, may become more prominent in thespring, but it is doubtful if it willhave a last-ing influence. That a short coat shall matchthe skirt has been the dictum for so manyyears, and it is difficult to get away from theidea that this Is th* only correct form of dress.Nevertheless, a costume seen in the Bois theother niornin? looked most attractive on theslender, youthful wearer. The skirt was lihrl;and white checked velvet, made with broadboa pleats and just clearing the ground. Theshort jacket, slightly curved to the figure, buton the paletot ordt r. was of su»Vle colorelcloth with a shawl collar of suede and trimmedwith small, kid covered buttons. One could seea glimpse of red waistcoat, and the hat was \u25a0broad, fiat toque of red velvet, having on onesMe a bunch of fancy red feathers.

FYinge has been used discreetly all winter.and occasionally it is the dominant note of agown. A costume of hlt:e velvet has the bodiceShaped like a big shawl collar, crossing in frontand edged all about with a silk ball fringe.The hi^ .nrmhole seen again here is finished withthe fringe, giving the idea of a sleeveless bodice.The sleeves are of lace In th" sam» shale ofblue nnd fall into high chinchilla cuffs.

Another costume with fringe is a gray rlofh,trimmed with gray nnd steel passf menterie.There are f.mr embroidered panels on tho skirf.finished with a deep fringe of silk and steel.The gown has a high draped corselet of lib-erty satin, and over this Is a round collar, withno visible closing, covered with the passemen-terie embroidery nnd finished with fringe.

llglouspapers, that you can't buy. - You can. buy alittle child. In short. If'you only hava shekelsenough, there can hardly be a limit set to whatyou can buy." i";\i.r

The relation of this tremendous power to th«subject of marriage Mr.Brooks found in its inter-ference with the ideal element nature alms at la

.such unions, the "deeper elective affinities," which.if allowed free Interaction would produce "a. nobler'and more vital race than the world has ever seen."

What socialism willdo for marriage. Mr.Brookswent on to explain, would be 'to.eliminate thisirrelevant element."It will do this." iie said, "by fixing thing* so

chat you can't cut off any more coupons. Youcan't buy coupons at the postofflce. because thepostofflce. though it Isn't very well run, is rustfor tho people. #>c government is going to takeover the other lings in which you invest yourmoney, as it la doing In New Zealand and someother countries. You won't have any more of theseingenious devices for separating class from classand creating the savage worship of wealth. You.may be able to leave your children as much moneyas vii1 h.iv? earned, but there will be no more o.this coupon business and no more of th« thingwhich has been the ghastliest, blackest bit ofAmerican history, that written by the children ofthe excessively rich. It may se*-m dreadful to younot to be able to leave money to your children.but they will be educated for real Independence,not for the dependent existence which, throughoutthe history of the world, has been called Inde-pendence. a child won't look forward and askwhen grandmother la going to die. and women willbe as Independent as men and, therefore. > freefrom the bread-and-butter form of marriage.

"Allthis talk we have been hearing from Carne-gie. Roosevelt and others is just the beginning of •>new use of the powers of government, and whenwe get rid of the excesses of capitalism and th«organized snobbery that goes with them the insti-tution of the family will he, far safer thin it hasever been befcro."

Mr. Brooks does not share the opinions of thosesocialists who assert that marriage is no one'sbusiness but that of the persons Immediately con-cerned.

"It is one of the strangest freaks of reason." hesaid, "thai per* who lay supreme stress on ccl-lecti\ ity should see in marriage only an affair of theindividual man and woman. This Is the patois ofthe anarchist, and socialists throw overboard theirown Intellectual baggage when they use it. I.ovamay be no one's business but one's own, but thechildren which In the ordinary course of events arethe cutcome of marriage are the concern of societyand out of the experience of a thousand years soci-ety has learned to have Itself represented at thewedding." ."\u25a0L'

Mr. Brooks admitted that in a perfect state ofsociety there would be, no reason why marriagesho»ld not tak? place without legal sanctions, but

| the sort of humanity we have to deal with now haiconsiders to be another matter.

WIDE ARMHOL.ES MOPISH.From the same source comes a visiting cos-

tume of heliotrope cloth. The skirt has a deep

band of embroidery! -1 me in silks of the sameshade, with a little pale blue passementerie, andthe sleeves and emplacement to the bodice areentirely embroidered, The top is a blouse uniteloose in front, much on tho lines of those worntwo and three yean :ik >. It Is trimmed withstraps outlining the yoke, and on" «trap passesfrom the shoulders under the arms, suggestinga wide armho'.e. The sleeve Is the Japaneseform, with a turnover cuff of the plain stuff onthe bottom. It covers the elbow over a puffof .rip.- in the same shade, which meets .'tthree-quarter length glove. The big armholein this gown, even more than the Japanesssi eve. is Important, aa it is undoubtedly to beone of the features of the spring modes. An-other form of sleeve which is beginning to ap-pear has a eloping shoulder, with a rather tightarmhole well over the arm. and then a balloonsleeve to a little below the eloow. This latter

rectoire fad, with the full, short skirt and thebandeau of the Second Empire?" is a questionbeing agitated by dressmakers and laymenalike. Mme. Rejane has made her debut as amanageress in "l,a Savelli." a beautiful pro-duction, laid in the time of the Second Empire.Somehow the modes of the time do not seem soout of place to-day, and it must be confessedthat several features of them are prominent inup to date . ostumes. The coiffeurs, too, saythat hair dressing is growing much lower andon lir.es of the time of Eugenic. Bandeaux shad-ing but not concealing the ears and rather alow careless chignon made of one thick strandof hair are the features of this style of coiffure,which is rapidly becoming the vogue.

Th* denier cri in evening coats is to havethem the same color as the gown and made tocorrespond in genera! features. The Increasingnumber of evening cloaks Which r. well gownedwoman considers necessary is an illustrationof the whole trend of the times. More andmore insistence Is being laid on accessories

—a

fact meaning that the whole wardrobe is grow-ing more complicated and costly. The fashionseven in such serious items as jewels and fursdo not remain quiescent, but seem trt changeover night. Every new entertainment appearsto be responsible for come novel way of wear-ing jewels or having them set. Undoubtedlygreat quantities of false stones are worn; other-wise the family jewels would be undergoingthe process of transformation two-thirds of thetime.. However, the ttrni false or imitationjewelry is never used; stor.es are "reconstruct-ed" or they are "mechanical." There are a v-eral places in Paris irbich deal entirely in thiskind of Jewelry. They look to the casual passer-by like the most serious and 'ligh class of kindof shop, and there is no sign to Intimate thatth'> 1" w pieces of jewelry discreetly shown arenol real. Their prices are by no means cheap.for their dcsiirns are costly and beautiful and:<li the small diamonds us d In the pettings aretrue stones.

A costume that Paquln lias recently made forMine, le Bargy has an odd top. which suggests;• 1 ape with the sides drawn together and fittedunder the arms. The fronts, which meet at th>>waist line, are buttoned to a little corselet vestpiece, and on one side th^re is a tiny watchpocket. There are no armholes, the capeforming a sleeve to the elbows over an under-slerve of white lace. There is a shawl collarrunning to nothing whore the buttons begin.The decolletage Is filled In with a cravat oflace. The material of the gown is goldenbrown meteor*- crepe, and satin in th*3 sameshade forms the shawl collar, bias bands onthe Bkirt and cape, the flan to the little pocketand the buttons.

Not Only Frocks, but Nurses, Govarne^ses and Nurseries MustConform to London Ideas

—Madame's Coiffurs Is Changing.

ParK January 4. and the French child who prattles about SantaParis has experienced nn English holiday Claus and hangs up his stockings seems

season. Christmas tree*, plum pudding and almost to hay» forgotten the pauvre petit.Noelbtfly. items which n few years ago were re- who walks across th-> snow with his little haregarded by the French as curiosities, are now feet to put a present in the shoe of the good\u25a0imosi as common as they would be r=t home, > lilldand a bunch of sticks in that of the bad.

Amongr French women of fashion it is thefad of the moment that everything pertainingto children shall be conducted on the Englishprinciple. Bahles have uniformed trained Eng-lish nurses and older children are in the handsof a "miss," as the nursery governess Is called.French mothers talk of their "nursery" as gliblyas if until now a room set apart for childrenwere not as unknown as any substitute for theword nursery in the French language. Eng-lish ideas of discipline for chldren are undoubt-edly sound, but one sometimes wonders whetherthe French tots are quite as happy with thi-English governess, with her to them strangeways and stranger tongue, ns with the old fash-ioned nounou. as ready to pet as to scold, andwith never a theory in h?r big. ignorant head.

With other English ideas has come a changeJn the dressing of children. Most small hoyswear the English sailor suit, with the proper

hat and reefer coat. Scotch suits are In greatfavor both for girls and boys, and even bestgoVns are treated to fewer frills and ribbonsthan of yore. The day may como when theschool child shall be exempt from the all-en-veloping black apron, but school mistresses area conservative lot, arid nothing else seems toconform to the scholastic atmosphere.

FROCK FOR GIRL OF TEN.The holiday seascn Is apt to moan new frocks,

and the private shops which cater to childrenhave an Interesting array of good models. Thenow idea in a straight frock for a piiiof eightto ten lies in the fact that it has no bell andcurves in slightly at the natural waistline. Ithangs in liox pleats partly Btitched to :i fittedlining,and over the shoulders are lace bn tellesframed in hands of velvet th»- same color ns thedress, the yoke consisting of lace points framedIn velvet. The full sleeves fall Into a lace andvelvet cuff put on a little below iho olliow.

The kilt skirt In the original Scotch plaid withreefer coat is worn aa a street suit by little girls.Tliis may be completed by a Jersey top. or theremay be a bodice to correspond to the pleatedskirt. A smart frock of red cashmere is madewith a pleated skin trimmed with three rowa ofPlaid braid. This Is attached to the lining,which is concealed by a dosed bolero trimmedgayly with braid and cut decollete to show ayoke of rod embroidered white guipure. TheJacket is trimmed with embroidered cashmerecovered hwt'ons and is short enough to show acash of red liberty silk. The yoke naturally is apart of the body of thp frock, and the boleromakes the second piece.

A party dress which conies from a smart placeIs so simple that it could be copied by a homedressmaker by using an embroidered flounce-cut in little teeth on tho edge. The one-piecegown Is made with a low belt, and the skirtpart is of the flounce, with a tiny ruffled £d«eof Valenciennes. The foundation gown is ofpink taffeta, with two lace ruffles at th>* edge tofill In the spaces left by the points of the 0111-broldery. The same deep flounce makes a bo-lero top, filled in to the belt line with nil overValenciennes, and the embroidery finishes withsmall points In a fifjuare d£colletage. Tin' sashand bretelles nr»' of soft pink ribbon.

STUDYING MUSIC.(FIRST PBIZE.)

Dear Editor: My favorite work or occupa-tion is the study of music Ido not sing, buthave taken piano lessens since Iwas elevenyears old. Inever realized how much it meantto me or how much Iloved it until Ibecameill,Just a year ago, and underwent a dreadfuloperation in Brooklyn. Ilay In bed '.here for

five months, and tor the first month or so Imissed ir.y music v;;y much. Later my gen-

eral health became so much better (but my

•wound etlll kept me in bed) that it was de-elded that Ishould take mask: lessons in bed:

During tha last three months my musicteacher came regularly once a week and gaveme lessons In Snger exercises. At the majorityof the lessons Ilay on my back in bed (not

being able to sit up even for an hour), and weplaced a large, stiff piece of cardboard on thabed either at my right or left side, and Iprac-tised my finger exercises, one hand at a time,on that, with the metronome, every day. ThisIquite enjoyed, for it gave me something todo and kept my fingers In working order, sothat when Iwas well again they would bestrong and Inpractice.

Table exercises were by no means all that Idid. Istudied harmony and the lives of th.-composers. AfterIhad read the life of a great

composer Ihad to write a composition on it,andnow Ihave a blank book just for those compo-sitions.

-Ihad still another study, which was the

hardest of all. though for that reason Ienjoyedit most. This was the memorizing of a piecewhich Ihad never heard on the piano nor seenbefore. It was IfacDowell's "To a Waterlily."

It took quite some time to i^arn It, and, as itwas, Idid not know It all by the time IleftBrooklyn. Imemorized it in such a way that Icould see the music in my mind's eye and.recitethe notes Just they came, to my nurse, every day.Inot only learned the notes, but the time andfingering also. The fingering was the hardest.

\u25a0When Iwas able to sit at the piano 1played th<ifirst part of the piece without the- notes beforeme. Ail this took much time, and helped many

en hour to pass quickly and happily in the hotcity, when Iwas so longing to be home In thebeautiful country..1 think Ilike the study of music best, because

It not only affords me, but others also, muchpleasure. Iam not naturally musical. Icannotplay by ear. as others in our family can, but I

have always loved to hear music, and to read itIs one of mv chief pleasures. It is wonderfulto me to hear the fine organists play so mag-

nificently on the large organs in the great NewYork churches'.'Ihope many others derive as much pleasure

from the study of music as does your Interestedreader and friend, PAULINEIE. DAKIN.
