many necessary comforts of life; that is their

they could notat any time raise sufficient cash
money to properly furnish them. What little fur

class and never made respectable appearance or
gave any satisfaction. Now on the InstaInlent

Gum Chewing ut Might.

1t is getting to be quite q craze
for girls to chew gum at night, and
it is most luminous habit. They
lose their rest, tire their usually
pretty jaws and wake up in the
morning peevish, cross grained, with
a sallow complexion, their digestive
organs impaired and their beauty
and yivacity gone! 1t is a fact that
girls who make a habit of chewing
gum are sure to lose their plump.
ness and pretty cheeks, as it develops
the masseter muscles that move the
jaw, to the detriment of the fatty
substance that produces the plump
ness aud pretty cheeks, as 1t de-
velops the masseter muscles that
move the jaw, to the detrimept Of
the fatty substance that produces the.
plump cheeks. But this is not all;
It is sure to stretch the mouth and
epoil the graceful position of the
lips, as well as to produce wrinkles
It is certainly very disgusting; bu,
we think it will soon play out, like.
the roller skating craze.

For q Bad Breath.

A woman with every charm of an
ancient or modern Venus ceases to
be beautiful if, when she speaks, her
breath is hot and feyerish, or worse
still, absolutely tainted. Naturally
she does not know this, aud it is
only proper that somebody belong.
ing to her should tell her. If it
comes from her teeth, it is something
very quickly rem edied. If it comes
from her digestion, then it is her
doctors business to get her in good
order, bot very often in this country
of invalid women it comes from the
use of very strong medicines. Dr..
Wilson advises for this the use Of.
lemons, claiming that they are the
most purifying Of all fruits, and
the aromatic odor produced by.
lemons rubbed on the teeth, gums
or lips last longer than any other.

Cooking Holders.

A good cook is not likely to use
her apron for holder, but it is
often temptation to do 40, unless
she has . good supply Of holders.
Not only should there be enough
for present. use, but some in the
pantry drawers to fail back upon,
They are made in all ways. Some
fold half a dozen thicknesses OF
cloth into a rectangle and bind the
edges. Others make the inside of,
any clean material, stocking legs
being often put to this use, and have
the outside Of thick material. such
as cloaking, and every piece com.
ing to the edge, sew over and over
around it taking coarse quilting
through it and finishing with a loop.
We half suspect one reason Why the
apron is so often put to the indigni.
ty of serving for a holder is be.
cause it is longer and can be placed
on the dish in two places. Why
not make longer holders then ?
When one cup towel is worn past
convenient using, put it aside until
two or three more are in like con-
dition; then fastening these togeth.s
et, you will find the holes in one
covered by good. places in another,
and that you have a holder worth.
many times its cost in time and
patience saved. Try and keep your
holders clean. 1t takes but few
moments to wash them out, and a
sticky holder makes one nervous,
and doubles the possibility to drop.
ping the hot dish.

The Women of the South.

The young Southern woman is un-
doubtedly seen at her best here, says
a White Sulphur Springs letter to
The New York Star. She can dance
all the morning and evening, appre.
ciate courtesy in the way Of q
mint ]ulip Just before going to bed
and wake up the next day early in
the morning, that she may take q
walk with her latest adorer. She
is as pretty as a peach, and she is
like the peach in the French
fruiterer's shop, for which the most
enormous price is demanded. She
IS absolutely spotless. Scandal has
not played with her name; she is
innocent Of the fast life 10 Loudon
or the more vicious one of Paris;
is happy in her own good looks;
appreciates like the child the. CON:
pliments paid her, and blissful. crea.
ture unbelief or even stray doubt
as to the goodness Of the world at
large, and her own world in particu.
lar has never entered her head.
She dances through the season, and
is probably married during the
next winter, and after that comes to
the White Sulphur Springs as a
young matron, keeps on coming
every year, until some old gentle.
nan wakes up to the fact that the
belle Of eighteen years ago is going
to introduce a beautiful l7.year.old
daughter. The old gentleman will
shake his head and remark that she
is handsome and that the good blood
in her shows itself, but after all
will there ever be one who is as
handsome as her mother.
