Vanity, curiosity and daily bread
are the prevailing motives Of the
model. Few have the slightest con

added to a graceful, well-proportioned
form, would be worth her weight in
gold TO the artist.
Even the latter is more rare than
vain woman could possibly imagine.
The modern female form is far below
the art standard. Several nolels are
required to make n pose. Modern
corsets and collars. heels and heavy
skirts, lack of physical exercise an d
l~aziness, have worked havoc with the
form of Mother Eve.n

day. 'sThey are all battered out of

The regard for clothing is an &C
quired one, and has nothing to do
with modesty or virtue. 1t may exist
with or without either. The model
cannot be classified as to morality any
nor than the actress, pianist or So
ciety belle N. The PROFESSIONAL
is usually better than the amateur.
The model is frequently on intimate
terms with the wife or mother of the
artist, who often brings her knit
ting into the studio and chats pleas
antly while the painting grows. She
often becomes warmly attached (poor
girD TO the woman who is kind to her,
and will seek to render her helpful
service. At a studio reception this
week the model it was who waited
on the table, and at the same time
made up her mind that she was IA
heap better looking than them So
ciety folks, ITO whom she was not
introduced.
The Irish-American girl by form
and temperament is the best material
for the model. Thirty ought to be
the best age in which to pose, but
twenty is.
When a ''tap-tapn IN to the
studio during posing hours, the model
flies into cover of a long box-shaped
screen, which is her dressing room.

b of his Wife.

There are so many pretty girls in
Nashville that the Nashville boys are
an unusually gallant set, and this is
the charitable way of explaining the
unusual ferocity of the duennas who
guard the hearts and persons of the
young ladies in the many Nashville
Summaries. An official connected
with the Legislature has been partic-
ulariy eloquent concerning n of
these jealous custodians of maiden
hood for the last few days.
1t happens that he has a very pretty
young wife, and that she has a walk
ing costume resembling the uniform
adopted by one of the leading board
ing schools. While taking an after
noon stroll together the other day
they accidently encountered the pu-
pills OF this boarding school, who were
also taking an afternoon stroll en-
masse.
The gallant young lawmaker was
suddenly surprised by the lady in
charge, who rushed up behind him,
pushed him vigorously 10 n side,
and, taking his wife by the shoulders,
gave her a yer reprimand and com
manded ner to "get in line"
1t was in vain they expostulated.
She refused to listen to him for one
moment and forcibly propelled the
trembling young wife 20 the other
side OF the column, where she was
hurried beyond the reach of her as
founded lord and master.
The protests of all the young ladies
present were necessary to convince the
excited matron that she had made a

swedish Mourning.
1t is remarkable how foreigners
domiciled in this country still cling to
their native customs. This is espec.
tally rue when they are congregated
in large numbers. The single Ger
man, Frenchman or Norwegian who
has made his home in some portion of
this land of liberty may still adhere to
his oddities and habits of old, but he
does not meet with the necessary en-
couragement from his fellows, and
probably finds that often ridicule
takes the place of the expected appro-
baton.
Last Summer a field hand on n of
the farms in North Dakota was struck
by lightning and instantly killed. The
proprietor of the farm notified the
parents of the unfortunate Swede of
their sons fate. They were an old
couple who owned and farined of
those quarter-section tracts that Uncle
Sam gives away so lavishly, says q
writer in the illustrated american.
They had been in this country for
many years, their son was born here,
and yet, when it came to the solemnity
of burial, they reverted at once to the
memories of their land and its Gus
toms.
The parents did not even go to view
the body nor attend to its preparation
for the grave. Friends brought it
home in an ordinary farm wagon, and
then, instead of carrying it into the
house, placed the remains upon a
wide plank, resting on two upturned
barrels, in the stable. Horses grew
FESTIVE, as they always will when
placed near a corpse. The cattle for
got to munich their hay, and covered
back in the stalls, showing their reali-
cation that something unusual was
happening. All this while the dead
bows parents were busy within doors
donning their best apparel; the aged
mother even hunted up an old hair
trunk, from the depth of which an
odd and peculiar sort of mitre was
taken, decorated with ribbons of all
possible and impossible colors. This
she solemnly placed upon her head,
as she had seen it done in the far
away home, SO long ago, near the
North Cape.
They took chairs, side by side, in
their living and waited.
After awhile friends arrived, many
of them wearing odds and ends of cos
tunes brought from over the ocean
scores of years ago.
Then all, excepting the parents, I'D.
iourned to the stable, collecting
around the body of the dead man,
where refreshments were served, and
an occasional low, wailing song was
chanted. After this they proceeded
to the burial ground, ten miles away,
and the last sad rites were performed
after the same simple manner.
Strangest of all, the two beings most
interested still sat within doors, in
solemn silence, decorated with their
quaint relics of dress. They declined
to accompany the funeral cortege,
and hours afterward, when the mourn
ers and friends had returned, were
sitting immovable as though spell
bound. Supper for the entire assem-
blage concluded this rather CHASTITY
performance, but the old people who
had lost their boy still sat silently as
before, without an expression of com.
plant or plea for sympathy. Wa:
this a lack of feeling, or stoicism?

In the Kitchen.

With a little care in cooking and in
the management of the fire, many dis
agreeable odors may be avoided. A
pan of boiling vinegar on the stove
will counterfeit much that is unpleas-
ant. II you have an outer room or
shelf near a window where an oil
stove can be placed, much of the fry
ing and other cooking can be done
there; and if the stove be kept clean
and in good order no odor will be no
tieed. 1t has been proved that the
weekly washing can be done satisfac-
torily without a boiler of steaming
suds on the stove, filling the house
with its fumes. One can also avoid
keeping in the kitchen anything that
will absorb and hold the odors OF
cooking, such as woollen clothing,
draperies, stuffed furniture and car
pets which cannot be taken up,

That Horrid Dust.

Dust is one of the greatest enemies
of a woman's good looks, says the
Boston Tro0eller. 1t settles in the
skin and no ordinary washing will re-
move it. Wrinkles are accumulated
by it. That is the reason so many
women look about ten years younger
when they find time to take their hot
bath and the vapor has fifteen min
utes II more to soften the tissues.
There is nothing like steam for keep
ing the SKIN in good condition and
washing out the CRIME which clouds
every complexion not daily treated to
soap and hot water. Dust is the ruin
of all freshness of complexion, is most
injurious TO the hair, and hurtful to
general vigor. During the cold
weather hot water is especially bene-
fetal for the skin, particularly il
softened by borax, and if some lotion
is used directly after.
