slippers, such as the ladies of the Ara

and are shown in all the colors of the

EconOmy of Strength.

We who are wise will recognize our
limitations. Instead of vainly striving
to make u strength equal to the de-
mands we make upon it, we will ar
range our living on simpler lines and
cut down our requirements. The moth
err who has six children can not do as
much for each of them as the mother of
two does for hers. 1t is physically inn
possible: and instead of worrying wei
it she must accept it as a law of nature.
The same rule holds good with many
other things. People with small in
ONE and small houses can not expect
to keep pace with those of larger means
and more luxurious abodes. No ex-
penditure of nerve force will enable us
to do it comfortably. Instead of wear
ing ourselves out in the vain attempt,
let us turn our attention to making our
selves happy with what we have and
saw our nervous system a strain it can
not bear.-Ladies' Home Journal.

In the line of fixing over old dresses.
remember hat shirrs and plaits will
cover a multitude of seams. If you
have an ancient wool frock to remodel,
buy some velveteen or silk to go with
it. and you will have a dress you will
like better than n new one. If you re-
model your frocks habitually it is well
to buy standard rather than those col
ors which are the rage of to-day. Ere
auently a waist, the edge of which is
worn, can be converted into IA round
waist, with a velvet girdle or a sash;
but as a general thing a remodeled
dress should always have Il new waist,
for that part Of a garment wears out
more rapidly than anything except
braid. In purchasing a plaid or brocad-
ed material, it is frequently wise to buy
more than is needed, as the extra
amount IN in handy for the remod-
cling, and odd patterns are hard to
match.-Farm and Home.
