Beauty OF Southern Women.
As rule southern women have small and
pretty feet. Certainly they do not spoil them
in walking, for in no section Of the country is
so little physical exercise INDUCED in by the
gentle sex They, too, are large OF eye and
soft Of speech. To make themselves agree
able is a canon, and their hattery is seductive
because apparently unconscious. They are
strong not only in family feelings and the
ties Of kinship, but have an unbounded pride
in their particular state, and an affection 50
strong for it that if the old issue had de-
pended on women one doubts that they ever
would have been beaten.-New York Press.
The Raby's First Year.
It is not welcome fact, but it is a very
pregnant one that the less babies are talked
to and noticed the first year the better. All
success in training them, indeed, depends
upon this calm letting them alone, leaving
the nerves unwrought upon, and allowing
the little frame time to become accustomed
TO the strain upon it of acquaintance with
this restless, rioting world of Ours.-DemO-
rests Monthly.

be encouraged rather than otherwise to be-
stow well merited praise or blame as it indi-
Gates refined and acute condition Of the
senses of taste and smen-Olfactics.
Cleansing Bedste0dS.
Concentrated lye is the best of all contriv-
ances for cleansing bedsteads. Never keep
either I've or any poisonous substance In .
bottle or pitcher or cup that may be drunk
from by mistake. In tin box or china soap
dish, nobody would mistake them for any
beversge.-Boston Budget
Hint to Buyers.
Unless you have a long purse, never buy
anything because it is cheap, especially gloves
and millinery. Such purchases are always
dear in the long run. A woman who dresses
we'll on hundred year says, 81 am too
poor to buy anything but the very best"-
