love? The man who goes into garden
of flowers and simply takes the first one
he meets, doesn't know what he is do
ing. 1t may not be sweet; there may
be thornS Oh it, and 1t may soon fade.
The wise man is the one who goes
through the garden, and seeing them
all, selects the sweetest, and most
important Of all. the one
that will last longest. Curiously
enough, the orchid, which is the
typical flower of civilized woman, will
outlast all the violets. roses. and even
the great pure white lilies. To my
mind more marriages would be sue
cesSeS if women were more loving, more
affectiOnate, more cOnsiderate and more
patient; but l firmly belieVe-you see
by this L am an ultra conservative
Woman-that the man should have the
more brain of the two. | don't want
woman to be a fool. but | think she
should be more loving than intellectual.
and more gracious than learned. That's
the end of my sermon on matrimony.
For the Girl who FreekIes.
The spring is coming. and with it the
numerous ills that flesh is heir to, es-
pecially freckles. The girl who is 60
ing to keep herself from getting
fleckled by wearing a veil mnst wear
one Of the thick kind, that really gives
one vapor bath. 1t has decidedly
undesirable way of getting into your
mouth: but as you have to suffer to be
beautiful and get rid of freckles,
you have to chew the cud of thick
veil and not complain. Wells are
the coquetry of the young and the char
ity of the old. and prove that charms
concealed attract the most. 1t is very
funny, but the veil, that is said TO be as
old as the vanity Of woman or the curl
oslty OF man, cannot be traced to its
birth. There was Il time when men
wore it; but that was a very long time
ago, and evidently the woman objected,
and forced them 10 give up the coquet-
tlSh bit of dress that really belonged to
them.
How Different VNom en- Wear Wells.
An Englishwoman regards veil as
something to put OH to keep out the sun
or the cold, and consequently she as
sumes it in very slovenly fashion.
The American and Frenchwomen know
that it is beautifier, consequently they
they take great care in getting becom-
lug wells, and in arranging them SO that
the beauty-spot is just in the right
place. while the veil itself does not seem
harmony with it. The Spanishwoman
knows that her mantilla and her fan are
her weapons of warfare, and she is an
adept in their use.
The Veil Now Most Worn.
The veil most in vogue Justine is the
fine Russian mesh without spot upon
it; the beauty spot, having been dis
covered to be ridiculous at times, has
gone out of favor. The bright scarlet
veil is to the fore again, but it can only
be worn by women who are very pale,
inasmuch as it makes every other woman
look as if she had violent attack of
scarlet fever. A plain blue veil-one of
the thin s-will make you look pale,
and gray one gives you CHASTITY look.
Brown is generally becoming; and the
fine tulle, In black, with very small dots
upon 1t, is always in good taste, and
usually makes the complexion look
better.
WOnan's Red Umbrella.
Speakin of red wells reminds me that
the rainy weather has brought cut the
red umbrella, and made it bit Of
brightness on gloomy day. Person
ally, l approve of the red umbrella. 1t
is cheerful and encouraging after a
series of black ones, though | don't
know as it would look well to see a
judge of the supreme court carrying
one. Still think most women under
fifty look decidedly attractive under it.
The healthy liking for red should be
encouraged, and | don't see why red
silk can't be as good way of protec-
ton as black. | don't see why every
thing that takes care of you mayn't be
cheerful.
WOman's Idea ofProtectIOn.
Don't you believe in protection?
do.
Protection from colds by good open
fires, quinine pills, porous plasters and
warm clothes.
Protection from bores by swords, dag
gers and pistols.
Protection from looking ugly by pref
ty frocks, pretty shoes and pretty
temperS.
Protection from dudes by the Young
Mems Christian association.
Protection from bad books by your
own good taste.
Protection from ignorance by the es-
Enlistment of schools where reading,
writing and arithmetic are taught.
l am a believer in protection all
around, Goodness graclouSl Do you
suppose anyb ody will want to be pro-
tected from Bah?
