nodded the old lady, ''that's the result OF a
great deal Of reformation, so called. You
know | believe drunkenness is a disease, and
too often the reformed drunksrd is the man
whose stomach is worn out; ard so 1t Is with
q rake. Not, my dear, that people can't re-
pent and do what's right, but don't think
1t Is respectable for them TO wait until they
are old and miserable 70 offer themselves as
examples for other people to follow"
PRED GERHARD NO LONGER HANDSOME.
The first night that Rose Coghan played
Lady Barter that marvellous play where
there are three acts and six gowns, not to
played the boy lover was made up most
perfectly to represent Fred Gerhard.
The likeness was absolutely startling.
! don't know just why IL was changed, but
the second time | saw the play he was
his blonde self rather than the
brunette Freddy. Any body seeing Fred Geb-
hard In the park nowadays would be
startled 90 his appearance. He has been
very i'll, AMI his skin Is q peculiar waxy
color. while one-half of his Jet black NOUS
teche is perfectly gray-indeed, might say
white. At one time he was marvelously
handsome man, handsome in an absolutely
material sense, but to-day his good looks
are gone, and though in years he is a young
man, there Is peculiarly old and disap-
pointed look in his face.
ROSE CoGHLAN'S STUNNING GOWN.
IL you ever doubted the liking that men
have for yellow, you ought to hear them go
into raptures over a mandarin yellow tea
gown worn by Rose Coghlan when she plays
Lady Barter" Men who never knew what
other women had on, except, as they
vaguely expressed 1t, "what seemed nice
frock," gloat over this glory in yellow, as IL
beautiful gowns had never been made be-
fore Rose Coghlan looks marvelously we'll
in this color. Few women could wear it,
but 1t brings out the glints of gold in her
hair, shows the clearness OF her eyes, and
the healthiness of her complexion.
HOW woMEN's COMPETITIONS DECEIVE.
How few people know what a good COM
plexion isl A very young man is apt to
think that the girl whose complexion is
wonderfully white, with just spot of pink
In her cheeks, is lovely. Now, any doctor,
could tell him that a course Of cod liver oil
was what that girl wanted. An elderly man
is apt to think that a woman with q very
high color possesses an extremely good c0m-
plexion; nine times out Of ten she either laces
too tight or eats too much. What Is good
complexion, theni A good complexion is one
that comes and goes-I don't mean from tho
rouge pot or the powder box, mean one that
the eyes and hair, over which there is a
good shading Of pink that deepens when
any emotion is felt or which pales when
fright is experienced. A good complexion
can always stand a little sunburn and a few
freckles, and that is one reason why can
a &c understand the great desire OF the av-
erage girl to abolish these kisses OF the sun.
Do object to powder and rouge? To be
quite plain, / do; and yet, il you can put
them on well, / have not a word to say
against your doing it; but, unless you are
mistress of the art Of makeup do not waste
your time and money on red and white, for
it is a waste, and don't make You look well.
and you deceive nobody.
HOW TO SPEND AND NOT TO WASTE.
There is nothing as delightful in this
world as buying things, but to know how to
expena your time and money 50 that there
will be no waste is the secret of domestic
and political economy alike.
IL ID not waste TO spend your money on
theater tickets If you are going to get three
hours Of solid enjoyment out of it.
1t 10 not a waste to spend your money in
cabs, in good medicine, and in good things
TO eat when you are going to get health
from them.
II isnot waste 20 buy somebody bunch
OF flowers, a box Of candy, or q new book,
for 1t Is going TO bring a smile to her facs
and happiness to her heart
1t Is not waste to squander pleasant
words every where; you will reap benefit
from them.
1t is not a waste to have your coats and
trousers, gowns and jackets we'll made, for
they will wear that much longer.
1t Is not waste to spend your money on
newspapers and magazines, because then
you learn to talk about something else be-
sides your neighbors' affairs.
IL is not a waste to spend your money at
all-that Is what money is made for. 1t
was made to give the greatest amount of
pleasure aud happiness to you and me-, aud
we are consum mate fools il we don't realize
that. OF course, my friend, don't know
how it is with you, can only say that the
spending OF money has never been any
trouble Whatever to me-. Bah.
