do at all, you know; it really wouldn't do.
It is so out of style to be sick or delicate or
even frail in appearance"
And so the girls, TO insure their health
which is now so necessary to their social
standing, have provided themselves with
chatelaines, upon which hang half u dozen
boxes of gold or silver set with jewels and
in which is collection of medicine, tones
and more or less stimulating drugs. A gold
chatelalne with six or seven gold bottles or
boxes hanging therefrom contain quinine

lozenges, purgative pellets, cough drops,
silver coated peppermint cachous, glycerine

the system in general good order.
And so, the girl of to-day, besides doing
everything else for herself, has taken the

the doctors, maintaining that she knows

Face massage, says the New York Trib~
une, as means of driving away wrinkles
aud improving the complexin is exciting
general interest. The skin is made supple
by this process, and after some treatment
wrinkles are lessened, and, if they are notof
too long standing, totally disappear. The
methods of the face masseuse are simple and
can easily be learned. English masseuses
make business of teaching the process to
ladies who desire to learn. The masseuse
begins her work by washing the face gently
in tepid water with a fine sponge we'll
soaped with delicate white soap, sold
specially for this purpose. After this a
warmer lather is used, and a warmer,
till the water is as hot as it can be borne.
The face being now thoroughly cleaned
and heated. a soft emmolllent cream
which is especially soothing to the skin is
rubbed in. The face is now carefully
treated by the masseuse. all lines being
rubbed in the opposite direction aud gen
tie friction maintained on the skin. If this
work is properly done it tends to restore
the muscular power Of tissues wasted by
illness or any cause, and gives youthful

wiped dry with soft damask towel. Tne
complexion acquires fairer bloom during
this process.
Too many women treat their compilations
roughly and are responsible for their taking
on in time a rough, leathery texture.
Huckaback towels are too rough to wipe
the delicate skin of the face; nothing
rougher than soft, absorbent damask
towel should be used for this purpose. Our
grandmothers always used damask towels,
but with the rage for friction towels that
took possession of the country a few years
ago these useful absorbent towels went
out of fashion, and we began 20
roughen our skins by using friction
towels exclusively. A soft towel costs no
more than a rough one. All that Is neces-
sary in wiping the face is that the towel be

A paper in a recent number of the NelO
England Magazine describes the success
OF the effort made by a company of women
in Boston to introduce and foster the Gus
tom of window gardening. Prizes are Of
fered for cut flowers grown in this way and
for windows of plants. On Easter Sunday
thousands of potted plants were personally
distributed through the tenement portion of
the city by regularly organized committees
of the society. Circulars are sent out to
the principals and superintendent Of
schools, asking them to interest their pupils
in the prize competitions which the society
frequently institutes. Altogether, the
movement is of an important and wide-
reaching character.
gardening is outside rather than within q
room, the mooted question, Are house plants
wholesome in bedrooms? comes up. 1t is
frequently desirable to have them in an in
valid's room, for instance, but many forego
the pleasure or take the trouble to remove
them every night, fearing their injurious
effect upon the trail occupant. The weight
of argument seems to be in favor of their
wholesomeness. The leaves of the plants
during the day take up carbonic acid and
give off oxygen-a valuable and sanitary
process. AT night the conditions are ex-
actly reversed, with this qualification-that
the carbonic acid given off in the night does
not begin to equal the amount of oxygen
evolved through the day, nor is it of suffi-
Gent quantity to affect any one injuriously.
A bedroom with few plants needs little
more ventilation, as if for an extra person,
that is all.

For street wear all gray is very often
chosen in preference to combination of
color. The prettiest and me st fashionable
street dresses are gray cloth, untrimmed
save by fur OF the same hue or by silk,
satin or velvet. Even the hat is of all
gray.
The rage for gold has brought the gold
gauze veil to the fore. It's popularity should
be limited to women who are young, whose
compilations are above reproach. Chantilly
lace is noted with tiny gold balls scattered
here and there upon it.
The prettiest trimmings for zephyr cling
hams and batistes are of open-work en-
broideres or light fine linen laces. Cream
colored Russian lace is also used.
The pale grays are more popular than
ever, since they are becoming to so many
styles of beauty. The pale shimmnring
gray satins are much worn, combined with
pink or rose color.
The real summer capes are the deep lace
ones made with velvet yokes heavily stud
ded with jet. steel, gold, or the very elab-
crate jewels that rare shown in star shapes
A lace wrap always seems essentially femi-

Heavy cords and milliner's folds are used
by French and English designers in plain
skirts of silk or satin.
For summer teas are shown pretty table
cloths and napkins made of tinted linen
embroidered with silk and gold. These give
a bright and pretty look to the supper room,
and the linen retains its color remarkably

Beige, almond, fawn, mushroom and
gray are the tints that are always popular
with the best dressed French women of
culture and wealth. These colors are re-

most any occasion.
The latest fat is that simplicity shall pre-

How to Act at Table.

Do not eat hurriedly or bolt your
food-it is vulgar as we'll as being
bad for digestion. A knife should
not be held by the blade nor fork
by the prongs. Grasp both knife
and fork by the handle, directing
both by extending the forefnger
along the backs close to the handle.
Never eat potatoes, vegetables or
anything for that matter with the
knife blade, which was made for
cutting only; the fork was designed
for carrying food to the mouth. AL
ways be polite and pleasant to those
with whom you are dining and en-
deavor to anticipate their wants.
Do not reach across the table for
the salt, bread, etc.. if they are not
close beside you ask your neighbor
or Servant for them politely.

A Useless Kind of Fifth Wheel.

A "ffth wheep' is common ex-
preston for uselessness, but "that
fifth wheel carried with all army
wagons makes me awful tired" said
an old man, with a semi-military
bearing, as he recently pointed his
cane at picture of an army wagon.
During the war | drove a wagon
from Paducah to Shiloh, and from
there to Atlanta, and then to the
sea with Sherman. | hauled one
of them fifth wheels all Of the way
and never found use for it; in fact
[ never, in all the four years l was
on that trip, heard Of a fifth wheel
being needed. Some other part of
the wagon was sure to break, but a
wheel-never. But the Government
began to haul fifth wheel during
the Revolutionary War, and is still
at it, if that picture correctly rep
resents the army wagon now in use.
The practice was introduced by
Washington, who lost one Of his
wagons during the Revolutionary
War by the breaking of a wheel.
has since countermanded
the order he then issued, although
the army has never since lost a
wagon in this manner. .'-Ex.

Unique Love- Making.

Here is romantic anecdote about
Louisa Alcott's father and mother.
AS young man, Mr.. Alcott, so the
story goes. was emanuensis or sec
retary to Mrs. Alcott's father. The
two young people met often, and
naturally fell in love with each
other. Mr.. Alcott's social condition
and prospects being somewhat un-
certain at that time, he did not feel
justified in asking this well-born and
talented young woman to marry
him. He finally gave up his position
and they parted with no confessions
on either side. It was agreed, how
ever, that each should keep a jour-
nal, and that these journals should
be exchanged once in SO often.
Thus matters went on for some
time, he unwilling to ask so much
and offer so little, she willing to give
all, and chatting under a woman's
necessity Of keeping silent. At
length one day, while reading the
journal he had sent her, she came
across few sentences in which he
hinted at his love and unhappiness
and wondered what she would say
if he should ever presume to ask
her hand in marriage. The moment
was Q critical one, but Mrs. Alcott

PREPARED PAPER is still fightin,

PREPARED PAPER is still fighting
it's way and making most remarka-
BILE progress in substituting itself for
other material in various branches
of industry. 1t is now taking the
place of wood in the manufacture
of packing cases, and SO perfect is
the manufacturing process that in
many instances nothing bat the
wonderful differences in weight can
afford clue to the presence of paper
in the manufacture. Paper packing
cases are indestructible, apparently,
and the saving they effect in freight
is enormous. Thousands of dollars
are already invested in this COM
paratively new industry, and a new
company, with 81, 1,250,O00 capital,
has been organized to introduce
paper boards into other lines. Ex-
periments have been made with
buggies, wagons and other things
where lightness is needed, and paper
in lieu of boards will soon
be heard of. It is easy to render
the material fre-proof in course of
its construction, and this is an ad-
ditional advantage that is highly
appreciated. ed.-Scientific Press.

Queer Ears.

On the tibia of grasshoppers' and
crickets' fore legs may be seen
bright shiny spot, oval in form,
which has been found to be true
ear. Old naturalists supposed these
strange structures helped in some
way to intensity the penetrating,
chirping sounds of crickets. No
one for a moment thought they
might be ears. Sir John Lubbock
and other modern naturalists have
decided that crickets, bees, ants and
other little animals shall not keep
their sense-organs a secret from us
any longer; and although these are
often in the least suspected places,
still, by careful experiments they
are sure to be discovered, as was
the cricket's ear. Some grasshop-
pers have no ears in their legs, and
as a rule these cannot sing.-St.
Nicholas for October.

Durability of Drunkenness.

The durability follows from the
application of certain general prin-
ciples, the first of which is isolation
and change of surroundings. The
drunkard must 60 into a quaran-
tine, where all the external condi-
tions of life will antagonize his dis
order and to assist nature to return
to health. In a quarantine station
or special asylum the diet, baths,
exercise, medical study and care,
with all other means, can be applied
with military exactness. Each spe-
cial phase of disease and form of
degeneration can be treated from
it's peculiar symptoms with partic-
ular remedies. Nerve and brain
rest, and restoration of all the or
ganic functional activities, can be
obtained by the use of means under
the care of the medical man. Thus
the drink impulse is overcome and
dies away with the increasing vigor
of the mind and body through all
the avenues of nutrition, healthful
exercise, regulated mental and phys
ical surroundings, and appropriate
drugs.
Drunkenness must be recognized
as disease legally and the victim
forced into conditions where he can
live along the best sanitary lines of
health, where medical treatment
and control can be exact and per-
feet, and where physiological and
hygienic training in its broadest and
best sense can be applied. 4 4 x
The durability of the inebriate is far
more certain than that of the insane
The liberty of both is equally dan
gerous; one is recognized, the other
is seldom restrained until he be-
comes a criminal. The moment a
man becomes a drunkard he forfeits
all rights to liberty and becomes a
ward of the State and should be
controlled by it, 1t is dense ignor-
ance that permits any one to destroy
his life and property by drink on
the supposition that he is free
moral agent. The inebriate is men,
tally and physically sick and needs
the same help as the insane, and
the question of care is simply one
of adequate means and remedies to
reach the disease.-Dr. T. N. Gro

How to Dress.

Somebody has said "dress accord
ing to your MEANS" But this motto
is illogical. Probably the only per-
son who dresses according to their
means are paupers. Millionaires
do not dress better than clerks who
earn twelve to fifteen dollars week
frequently not so we'll. Servants
very often dress better than their
mistresses. There exists a positive
mania for deceiving others as to
our wealth and position, and con-
sequently the clerks and servants
live in cheap-often dirty-rooms
and eat the poorest and least nour-
ishing food to enable them to wear
"false feathers" Men and women
should dress neatly and comforta-
bly,, but according to their station
in life as well as means. Nourish
your bodies and minds before in
dulging your vanity. "Fine feath-
ers do not make fine birds"
