They seem to trouble nine girls out of
every ten, and am sure do not know
why. In the first place, the girl who has a
freckle or two ON her face announces to
the world at large that she uses neither
paint nor powder. Then, too, she tells that
she has been living in that best of all
things-the sunshine. But somehow the
freckles trouble her; her sweetheart
thinks they are rather pretty, but she
does not agree with him. and she is al
ways asking, "What will take away the
freckles?" Well, my dear girl, if you
got them a week ago, or Il month ago,
or some time during the summer, the
juice of the lemon, with teaspoonful
of borax in it, dabbled on them will
cause them to disappear-that is, if you
apply this treatment regularly, not if
you put it on tonight and forget it the
three nights more to follow
Sometimes, if they have only Just
come, few drops of benzoin, put in the
water until it gives it milky look, used
for a few days, will cause them to dis
appear. And, by the bye, very nice
woman wrote and told me that she could
not get benzoin at any drug shop in town.
Well, just let her tell the chemists them
selves that they keep very poor stock
of goods when they have not that. Five
or six drops of it in a basin of water will
make it look like skimmilk, and make
it smell like the fir or cedar trees, while
it will cool sunburned face and give
what doctors call tone" to the skin.
But, my dear girls, do not want you to
bother about the freckles. They are
really rHt worth it. Instead, make up
your mad that they are sun spots, put
on your face to tell the world of the
sunny disposition that you have, and of
the glad spot that you make at home.

Grape Juice for Winter Use.

Grapes should be very ripe to give the
fine flavor unrivaled by any other fruit.
The dyspeptic will find grape juice the
most delicious and cooling of all drinks,
while the sick person, no matter what
her ailment, will find both nourishment
and GOODNESS in this drink, particularly
adapted to the needs of the fever pa
tient. 1t is also delicious for mince pies
and sauces. Nothing could be nicer to
serve with cake at a calling reception.
The methods of preparation are: Pick
grapes from stems, look over carefully
and wash in cold water. Pack in
3-inch layers of white sugar. When the
jar is full tie over the mouth of it a
thick cloth, after which cover with pa
per. Place in a cool place in the cellar.
When used, strain through a wire
strainer. Ready for use at Christmas.
Pick and wash grapes. Cover with
water in porcelain vessel. Boil until
thoroughly cooked. Strain the Juice
through jelly cloth, sweeten to taste,
heat again and put up in alright glass
jars.-Housewife.

she CHARM OF GERMAN WOMEN.
1t Is Only in This Country That They
Receive Their Full Development.


Receive Their Full Developments.
German women come honestly by
their charm. At time when the Eng
lish, French and italian women com
manded scant respect they were vener-
ated and placed not on equality, but on
superior plane to men. He who beat a
woman was punished twice as severely
as if he had beaten a man. He who
wronged a woman was executed, unless
the woman chose to save him by becom-
ing his wife; when she declined, not
only did the wrong doer expiate his
crime with his life, but the house where
he lived was torn down and every liv-
ing creature in it, to the very cattle, was
put to death.
German girls married late-generally
after rather than before twenty; and it
may be inferred that their spinsterhood
was dull from the fact that the German
word for wedding is hochzeit-a high
old time. But they brought no dowry
to their husbands, except perhaps a
knife or spear, and for three days
after the wedding a sharp sword sepa-
rated wife from husband in the nuptial
couch. Notwithstanding the sword the
husband gave her ON the morning after
the marriage present called NOR
gangsbe, from which word the present
''morganatic marriage" is derived.
The women fought in the wars by the
side of their husbands, and We're thus
Injured to exposure and fatigue. Wild
ows never remarked; the German phrase
ran, "As woman has but one body and
but one soul, so she can have but one
husband" Perhaps these "reminiscences
of the ancient Germans may help us to
understand the loyalty and beauty and
charm of German women today.
1t is only in this country that the
modern German woman receives her
full development. On her native heath
she is less attractive than the English
woman, or the French woman, or the
American. She is so impressive an ex-
ample of immaculate virtue that she op-
presses other people with conscious
ness of their own depravity, and they
shrink out of sight of such spotless
propriety. Vasili does imply that la
dies of the court at Berlin sometimes
condescend to desipere in loco-which
may be freely translated by saying that
they are equal to Irritation in a back
parlor when the lights are out.
But Vasilis prejudice is notorious
According to the memoirs of Alice of
Hesse, so much starch goes to the outfit
of German lady of fashion that un-

The Oldest living American actresses
are Clara Fisher Maeder, born in 1871,
and Mrs. John Drew, who is seven years
younger. Mrs. Drew appeared on tie
stage babe of nine months and has
acted ever since. Mrs. Maeder was ON
the stage from 1917 to 1889, and then
went into retirement. Mrs. Hannah
Birrell, who died in San Francisco a

MS IN VERSE.



Tell me not in merry accents
That i have an unthatched roof,
'Tis the hairy head that lacks sense
Badness is of thought proof.
Hair is vulgar, hair is useless,
And to brush and comb a bore,
Making life but dull and juiceless:
/ need brush and comb no more.
Not for wise men matted hair is,
Black or brown or red or fair;
Let the savage of the prairies
Waste his time in raising hair.
Life is short and hairs are numbered,
And though flies ere hardly borne,
Still at night I've always slumbered
When the nightcap have worn.
In the worlds broad field of battle,
Who'd be at the barber's call,
Listening to his tiresome tattlep
Better bare as billiard ball
Fear no future, baldheaded brother,
You were bald in infant days;
Crave not hirsute on another
Brain it is, not hair, that pays.
Lives of great men all remind us
That our smooth and polished pates
Leave all hairy heads behind US
Let US thank the favoring fatesl
Footprints of Old Times fleet walking
No one sees on our smooth crowns;
Mind no more the idle talking
Made by anxious mophead clowns.
Let US, then, o hairless brother!
Proudly through life's pathway roll:
We remember that dear Mother
Earth is barren at the pole.

Lines to n Skeleton.

Behold this ruinl Twas skull,
Once Of ethereal spirit full
This narrow call was Life's retreat,
This space was Thoughts mysterious seat.
What beauteous visions filled this spotI
What dreams of pleasure long forgotl
Nor Hope nor Love nor Joy nor Fear
Has left one trace of record here.
Beneath this moldering canopy
Once shone the bright and busy eye;
But start not at the dismal void
If social Love that eye employees;
If with no lawless fire it cleaned,
But through the dews of kindness beamed
That eye shall be forever bright
When stars and sun are sunk in night.
Within this hollow cavern hung
The ready, swift and tuneful tongue;
If Falsehood's honey it disdained.
And when it could not praise was chained
If bold in Virtues cause it spoke,
Yet gentle concord never broke,
This silent tongue shall plead for thee
When Time unveils Eternity.
Say, did these fingers delve the mind7
Or with its envied rubies shine2
To hue the rock or wear the gem
Can little now avail to them.
But if the page of truth they sought,
Or comfort to the mourner brought,
These hands richer need shall claim
Than all that wait on Wealth or Fame.
Avails it, whether bare or shod,
These feet the paths of duty trod?
If from the bowers of Ease they fled
To seek Affections humble shed?
If Grandeurs guilty bribe they spurned,
And home to Virtues cot returned,
These feet with angels wings shall vie
And tread the palace of the sky.

woman's Rights.


A right to tread so softly
Beside the couch of pain;
To smooth with gentle fingers .
The tangled locks again;
To watch beside the dying
In wee small hours of night,
And breathe consecrating prayer
When the spirit takes its flight.
A right to cheer the weary
On the battleflelds of life;
To give the word of sympathy
Amid the toll and strife;
To lift the burden gently
From sore and tired hearts,
And never weary of the task
Till gloomy care departs.
A right to be n woman
In truest woman's work
If life should be hard one,
No duties ever shirk;
A right to show to others
How strong a woman grows;
When skies are dark and lowering,
And life bears not rose.
A right to love one truly
And be loved back again;
A right to share his fortunes
Through sunlight and through rain;
A right to be protected
From life's most cruel blights
By manly love and courage
Sure these are woman's rights!

Life.

What is life? The incessant desiring

And instead of that JOY the acquiring
OF enjoyments that are not desired.
