There is q curious old French book, still TO be
picked up about the stalls on the quays of Paris,
which gives the letters of father to his
daughter, the advice of Gallo Chesterfield to
the sex that would profit by it most.
No where does its piquant shrewdness be-
tray more forcibly the trained man OF the world
than in the words to the daughter on her mar
riage: ITO the world you must always be your
husbands wife; but to your husband you must

the woman beloved and idolized, who holds
sway over man S innost fealty, reverence and
desire, knows little of winter, age or decay. She
keeps always some charm in reserve, has some
new delight to learn and disclose, some
trait of fresh and sweet affection to de-
spring, in the new growth of grass along the
meadow sides, the pearling of white clover in

newals of freshness and beauty, to suit with
bright dancing leaves and bows, blossom laden,
fexile and swaying in the wind. Treat yourself
well, mesdames, and see what sort OF face looks
back at you from the mirror.
Early IN the year secure such thoroughly
good condition of nerves and blood as will defy
heat and depression. Now is the time to begin
a course of medication to ward of wrinkles,
freckles and sunburn in their most disiguring
sort. The nurses of women's beauty are seven

and whatever stirs the blood joyously and fully,
be it exercise, love or enthusiasm. These last
may any of them be a dangerous stimu-
liant, and over each must write the
magic word ''coutrol.'' Sunshine one may have
even in the city, in these happy spring moods of
air, when night frosts purify it and the first
beams warm if. Then women should turn out
and keep to the sunny of the way, two hours or
more. In doors let the chosen seat be in the

chill and distemper out of ones frame, and
charges it instead with life and stimulus. If

sun the latter can bear. If you would keep dark
hair from turning gray submit 1t to the same
treatment. Have the writing desk, the easel,
the typewriter, the sewing machine or the work
table set in the sunny window, and submit your
self to the great developer of growth and color
If can do nothing more than to persuade my
countrywomen to make friends with the sun my

If the sun makes one i'll, with giddiness and
headache, it is from initiated blood and disor-
dered digestion, which needs prompt attention.
Diet will do much, but few order its changes to
effect necessary good. Meat three times day
for desk workers, with the occasional orange or
salad, is not right living. The old English use
OF vegetables deserves to be followed in
time. 1t was the corrective which saved the ma
ton from extinction with scurvy in its wholesale
use OF SAT- provision and nearly meats.
The burgherS were wise enough TO bring
cabbages and onions from Holland, done in
Boston markets to-day, where you may find
Dutch cabbage which has crossed the Atlantic
of a sohdity, flavor and freshness which justi-

color in your hair, and clear, brilliant cheeks,
keep the sulphur yielding vegetables on the
table the year round. To serve them in
spring, follow the good German fashion
OF cooking them in earthen jars in
their own steam. Shut the cabbage,
onions or turnips in stonware pot in
the oven and leave them two three hours.
They viii be worth the attention OF an epicure,
having tenderness, richness and high flavor,
albeit not a rankness, which win place them in
first flavor. Instead of having boiled dinner
once week, with its healthy profusion of vege-
tables, make the courses of rich roots, carrots,
parsnips, turnips, the salads and brsssica gen.

the hearty American breakfast for which hard

custom, we find that lettuce was a
supper dish, very sensibly, it tends
to excellent sleep, better than choral can give.
Capers in salad, boiled in oil and vinegar, are
capital restoratives for overdone people, who
feel heart and lung failure imminent. One

the dish of meat or salad. for it had the virtues
OF assafRtida in quieting nerves and toning the
stomach. Water cress was believed to restore
the bloom to young ladies' cheeks, which it still
