Unpopularity of an or Horse.

It is a matter of long inherited custom

Beware of Too Much Perfume.

Let fair woman beware OF using per
fumes of pronounced and aggressive oders,
lest she offend and ALLEVIATE the regard OF
her friends. One of the chief causes Of the
separation of the king of Holland from
his first wife was the penchant of Queen
Sophia for the scent OF musk, which odor
was intensely disagreeable to her royal
cousort. So generously aid she indulge
her passion for this perfume that not only
were her OWE apartments permeated with
it. her clothes, hair and belongings often
sive with it. but any room through which
she passed would smell for days after of
her favorite perfume. The secret of the
fascinating fragrance which seems to sur

How to Cook and Serve Eeis.

syiIliners Earn Big Money!.

One of the best paid branches of female
Industry is that of trimming ladies hats.
To the inexperienced person it might seem
to be an easy thing to take hat frame and
DIT on a little velvet or silk or ribbon or
flowers or feathers or birds. But the fact
is that practically it is difficult to find OPP
sratives who have the requisite taste and
skill TO do this with success. Ii is neces-
sarv while preserving the general style of
fashion, to put into the work certain dash
of originality, because no two ladies hats
are precisely alike. The trimmer must
understand the harmony of colors and the

establishments this work approaches high

Things That Deter Women from Marrying


There are three general causes which
bring marriage into diSfavor with women;
philant hropy, higher education and self
analysis. The first has been powerful
factor in its subtitle influence against mar
riage. The mental atmosphere Is per-
meate6 with the idea of responsibility for
another's happiness. Woman now feels
herself accountable for the welfare of hui
mainly, and through the exercise of that
responsibility has found occupation for
mind and heart which has prevented alb
sorption in her own affairs.
Higher education has affected marriage,
inasnuch as it has opened new avenues OF
employment for women, has fortified them
for life as a whole and has led them to re-
gard marriage as an incident. 1t has given
girls a communistic feeling, which makes
them prefer to teach where there are other
teachers rather than to live on hilltop
and read aloud to their parents or TO re-
tire to a farm or tenement and bake and
brew for their husbands The higher edu-
cation has separated marriage and mother
hood Almost all women love children,
and would gladly use their knowledge for
the delight and profit of a family, but they
do not want the intervening marriage
Analysis has advanced from being a
method in text books to the study of ones
self. The age is analytic. Once work was
so constant that married women did not
realize their loneliness or the want of APP
probation which befell them. Now society
and the middle class have leisure to ex-
anime their states Of mettal solitude and
TO see just where husbands are wanting

The curious idea of preserving dead
bodies by galvsno- plastic method Is not
