Girls and ,IeWNIrY.

Fashion makes certain wise laws for the
wearing Of jewery. People who break these
laws and assume too much are at once show
ing ignorance and lack of that fine taste
which is at the heart of everything which
fashion dictates. You may have rings in

who adorned her fingers and toes with them
but that is no reason why you need look
like a heather goddess, or as if you were
anxious to let all the world see at one time
just how many golden circlets you possessed
You, who have the beauty OF youth, do not
need to wear jewelry-a Little ring if you
will, modest brooch. and perhaps bangle
on your wrist, but not an arm covered with
them.
There is nothing more vulgar than to have
thirteen bangles as has one sir! know, who
triumphantly points to them and tells of their
being given each by different admirer. Ev-
cry time she announces this fact she fails

Replaced the Hat

Even the much despised tramp has
often more honor than he's given credit
for, Is witness the following from New
Jersey: Fourteen years ago a tramp
knocked ct the door of Daniel Palmer,
in South Orange township. Essex
county, and asked for q hat. By mis-
take one of the daughters gave him her
fathers best silk hat, discovering the
mistake just as the tramp started away
with it. An exclamation by her sister
apprised'the tramp Of the prize he had
received. Little thought was after given
10 the matter until a few mornings ago,
when clean new hat box was found on
the front porch. 1t contained new
silk haI. anl this explanation within on

farmers wives are AS skillful managers

duties. When farmer has such wifo
no can devoto his ontiro time to his gen

year tho profits will be we'll nigh
