THE NOTION THAT APPETITE is a low degree OF
hunger, and hunger an intensified form OF ap-
petite, does not seem to be borne out by facts.
The two desires or longings are different ia
their nature. Appetite Is the craving OF the
apparatus Of taste, and sometimes OF the d.
heo o 5ne Of
for food. Use the words appetite and hunger
how we may, there are actually two needs TO be
founding them. The one cry for food which we
call appetite is an affair of habit or caprice,
and may, for time at least, be stimulated by
appealing TO the sense OF taste. or promoted by
certain cordialS and stimulants; but looking
at the matter from physiological point of view
l. is difficulty 10 see what We gain by exciting
the organs OF digestion TO take food unless the
system is tn condition 10 receive it. The ra-
t1onal mode OF procedure would seem to be to

HOW Lovely Woman StOOps TO Folly,

New York Letter to Cincinnati Enguirerl
Wide mouths have come into fashion for wo
sly lie OF the past year or two. The proper
mouth OF the present season is worn In con-
slant but mild smile, the corners being drawn
back horizontally, with the lips left closed.
The expression is one OF amtable, quiet salts
faction with all the world-as though the mind
was free from sorrow and the feet free from
corns. Care should be taken not to broaden
this into an active grin, except on mirthful oc-
casions; nor. should the lips be compressed. Ali
should be In repose. The lips may be REDEEMED
II the natural color be too light. A practice OF
painting the exposed membrane Of the upper
LIP broad and bright just at the center has
crept in, but 1t is bad for it gives an artificial
and sensuous look. The fashionable belle has
cut the pickering string of her mouth, and no
She can kiss two men simultaneously, and give
good satisfaction, where before only one could
find room ct time.
The reader who supposes that the above is
faDclful, and not plain, straightforward
fashion news, is very much mistaken. Wo-
men can change the style OF their faces II not
at Will. at least considerably: The hair over
me forehead ,es can be arranged to produce any
desired outline for the upper part OF the face;
the mouth can be made TO widely vary its ex-
preston; the eyes can be kept pertly wide open
or languidly half-closei; the cheeks can be
rounded by using "plumpers;" the eyebrows
can be arched or Strengthened; the color can be
controlled to high degree. Thus it is appar-
ent that woman can, ii clever, have to some
extent the kind of face she wants. The nose
is about the only tntractable feature. 1t sticks
right out In unalterable independence, defying
all efforts to shorten or Straighten it. Let me
interpolate the fact that not one woman In 10
ever laughs or smiles natur ally, Knowing full
well our defects OF teeth or expression, We try
10 hide or reform them. / know a girl who

funny show, because she isn't pretty when she
laughs. Ii inadvertently caught by something
comic, she buries the laugh In a handkerchief;

A farmer living about forty miles above De-

Kiln club line to the effect that he had lately
discovered human tracks 10 inches long In q
clay bank on bis farm. Some OF his neighbors
argued that they were relies OF the mastodon
period, and others that some circus giant had
made his escape and was wandering around the
country. His own private theory was that
some member OF the Limektln club had passed
that way on hunting expedition, and he
wanted his suspicious verified or put to flight,
