quirCs greater size about the incision,
and the operation accclcrates the ma

fruit likewise. The incision should
not be made too deep, nor further

water, in which %salamoniac or com

To Prevent the Blight OF Mildcw

INFLUENCE OF Pretty NnMEN-Iifc
becomes more harmonious, it beats with
u kcc2cr pulse of enjoyment, in the
presence of pretty women. After all. Il
charming little figure, a piquant little
face, is the best remedy for half the
worries OF CNistancc, its yCNat.ions, its
d%ullnCss, its disappointmcnts. And even
in the larger and more placid types OF
beauty OF Lady DumbCllc, if there is Il
tingc OF stupidity, there is at amy rate,
an atmosphere of rcposc, a genial in
]luGncC, moulding our social converse
and habits into gcntlcr shapes.
1t is amusing to see how the prctti-
ness OF a woman tells ON her dress, how
the order and propricty OF her dress
tells on the home. The pursuit beauty,
the habit Of prcttincSS, give an ideal dig
nifty to the arrangement Of her bonnet
strings. In every movement, in the
very sweep of her ample folds in the pose
other languor, in the gay start of her
excitement, Il feels the sOttcning, har-
monihirG influence of her last lock in
the glass. She may be gay or SORROW
iul, quiet or cnCrgtiC, but She must be
pretty. Beauty exercises an impcr-
CcptiblC COmpul~'On over her, which
moulds her own life into graceful and
harmonious form. Her dress rises out
of the mere clothing Of man Into the
regions OF science, Of poetry, of art, A
thousand considerations of taste, har-
monies of color, contrasts, correspond
cncies, delicate adjustments Of ligllt and
shade, dictate the choice OF a shawl or
the tint of Il glove.
And as pr%Cttincss tells on dress, it
tells on the home. Flowers, pictures,
the gay notes of Il sonata, the choicest,
gorgeous huCs of Indian tapestry,
SlaSS-wOrk OF Murano, u hundred cX-
quisitc something's and nothings, are
the natural setting of pretty women .
The art of the boudoir tells on all but the
chaos of the husbands study. Around
that last refuge Of barbarism floats an
atmosphere Oftastc and refinement in
which the pretty wife lives and moves
and has her being. And from this tone
of the home grows the tone of society,
the social laws OF good humOr, of pro-
prlety, OF sClt-rCstraint, of consideration
for others, OF gcntlcncss, of vivacitv.
The very hush of the rough tones that
Numbered over Icloponncsus as Peri
clcs bends over AspaSia. thclitllc turn
in%s and delcacics Of phrase, the Joyous
s1ridomS acd idlCnCSS OF the manifest
and most energetic of men. tells Of the
