8/49 Harry's idea of color in pictures is wonderfully good; in dress it would be for me almost ridiculous. I think Harry likes all colors and he did not know which to select. He advises me also, that I must wear a low-cut bodice and very short sleeves. I have never done this, and I do not think that I should either feel right or do right to follow such advice." "There would not be anything wrong in such a dress, but you would not be graceful in any kind of garment you do not wear _habitually_." Then Jane showed her sister-in-law all her finest costumes, told her what modistes made them, and at what social functions they were worn. They drank a cup of tea together and Jane thought Mrs.Harry the most attractive and affectionate woman she had ever met. |
