There was little family Jar in an up
town home the other day arising from
some fraternal incredulity as to the
exalted virtues of n fox terrier that had
lately been making the joys and sorrows
of the only daughter. and from paternal
protest against drinking milkless coffee in
order that the canine treasure might
breakfast comfortably. The dog and his
mistress finally triumphed and peace was
restored. An English girl who was pres
ent paid naive tribute TO American domes-
tic relations by breathlessly remarking (:

have thrown brick at my head"

There are two girls in New York who
are well provided against emergencies.
They have duplicate eyes safely packed
away i'm their jewel boxes against possible
accident When they were in Vienna last
summer they visited the Salviati glass
factory, where the finest artificial eyes i'm
the world are made During their visit
they were surprised at the very steadfast
gaze of one of the workmen, but, Of
course, took no notice of the seeming i'm
pertinence. A few days later each re-
ceived a little box, which, being opened,
was found 10 contain most accurate copies

note requesting their acceptance, and say

II is quite time 20 begin getting into
the Christmas spirit IL is not easy for
some of us To get into the mood, and, un-
less we can swing along with the crowd
and be jolly, there might rs well be no
Christmas. First Of all, don't begin TO
worry about the things you would like 90
do for people but cannot; that will spoil
everything. Go ahead and do what you
can. Write a list uf friends TO be remem-
bered. and pin it in the corner Of your
looking glass, and when inspirations as

A Bright woman's Chat.

There is no longer any excuse, says the
New York Press, for careworn-looking
girls, the two greatest worries of the
average woman, skirt braids and shoe but
tons, need no longer trouble her. The first
class shoe shops all keep buttons sewed on
till the shoe falls to pieces, A little ma
chine has been invented which does it in
no time, and it is quite easy to run in for
"A moment on the way down town and be
