1t is a shame for a woman to dress I'M
dress well.
Dress in such a manner that your attire
will not occupy your thoughts after 1t is
upon you.
That mode Of dressing the form and
face which best harmonizes with Its
beauty Is that which pleases God best.
A woman was made for something

More Fiatterins than Truthful.
The latest thing with the fashionable
girl is a belt, of beautiful bright gold,
says a New York letter in the Cleveland
Leader. 1t is soft, pliable and smooth
like satin, and Is fastened by an exquis-
itely wrought gold buckle. Appropos OF
the arrangement is a little story that has
a charming maid of the mostdelicate pat
tern for its heroine, and a young man OF
much effrontry for its hero. The maid
was at a lawn party, and about her waist
was one of the shining gold belts. None
OF the other girls yet had them, and it at-
tracted q large amount of attention in
consequence.
The youth who is the hero of the story
had been admitting the pretty girl all day
regardless of her belt, but for some uR-
known cause his admiration did not meet
with approval from her. Indeed, the pro-
voking creature cut him deliberately, and
he was made verv sad thereby. Watching
her from a distance, the young man saw,
as she was walking ~leisurely over the
lawn, her gold belt come loose and fall to
the ground, while she remained uncon-
scious of It's escape. Now was his oppor-
tunity, and he made the best Of 1t, you
may be sure.
Hurrying across the lawn he secured the
belt and went in pursuit OF the pretty
girl Upon reaching her he stood breath
lessly before her, holding the belt behind
his back out Of her view.
Il have found something that you lost,
Yes she inquired. well, what is
Il hardly like to say" replied the
young man.
The maiden looked at him severely and
commanded him in very hard tones not
to be silly. but to give back to her what
ever he had found.
But its your garter, Miss NJ" ex-
CLAIMED the young man; q as he spoke
the words he held out the small round
circiet of gold. The peryerse maid
snatched ii from him and sc0Wled as she
lowered her face to hide her bushes.
Suddenly she threw her head back and
laughed aloud.
We'll, you really are silly, aren't yonf'
she exclaimed. "Let me see. / think you
may call on me if you like"
The feminine pride had been touched.
She knew she had a small and pretty
waist, but she hardly Thought that her
belt could be mistaken for her-well, the
young man is now a regular caller.
The Rose Saith.
The bath Of roses, so often mentioned
by writers on the luxurious age of
Roman life, is a comparatively cheap
luxury today. The warm water, in
quantity amounting TO the usual require
ment of the bath, is first softened by
stirring into the tub finely sifted oat-
meal, to which also is added half q pint
OF glycerine; lastly put into it two drops
of altar of roses. IT the massage treat
ment be available use it by ali means; If
not, let q coarse towel and hard rubbing
serve the purpose of the massage sys-
tenn. This bath is simply fine, as it
