A fellow guest at the Savoy with the
Princess Eulalie tells of the satisfactory
achievement of the full measure of one
small boys ambition. The little fellow
greatly admired the Spanish woman
but always at a distance until one day
he took his place at the end of the cor
ridor leading from her rooms with the
avowed intention of at least waving his
hands as she passed. When his patience
was finally rewarded by her approach,
the child's speaking face at once arrested
the infanta's attention.
Stopping, she said, reaching out to
her delighted admrer: What n dear lit
tie boy! must have Il kiss!" and she
got it at once, with IL hug thrown in, an
enthusiasm which so pleased the royal
woman that she asked the name and
residence of the young hero. Finding
he was living in the hotel, at her next
leisure she sent an invitation to his par
ents to come with him to her apart
ments, where they were received with
great cordially and the small boy pet
ted by the child loving princess to his
hearts content.-New York Times.

On hot day the most refreshing form
of sandwich is the salad. These are
spread with mayonnaise and overlaid
with thin slices of tomato, cucumber,
grated celery and chopped watercress.
Mayonnaise, with finely chopped chick
en-, boiled egg and chopped celery be-
tween thin layers of bread, is a portable
form of chicken salad in vogue for pic
MICS. Chopped mushrooms add delicacy
and flavor to them. Egg sandwiches,
with mustard and spices, are among the
simpler forms. But there is a highly
aesthetic service which patriotic young
woman is preparing for tomorrow
She has had a dozen eggs boiled hard
These are neatly cut in two and the
yolks taken out. These she has mixed
with finely cut chicken and celery
through the medium of mayonnaise.
The excavation is then filled with this
mixture, the two halves of the eggs are
put together and then inclosed i'll con-
fectioner's paper. Meanwhile oblong
pieces of tissue paper, red, white and
blue, have been fringed at the ends. The
three colors are laid together and the
egg inclosed by twisting the fringcd ends.

Very Little Handshulsinr.

According to the niccties of etiquette,
it has been decided that the ceremonious
introduction forbids handshaking. ex-
cept when stranger is presented to the
hostess, when the civility of extending
the hand may tend to place the new
conner ut his case. n young woman
simply bows when IL young man is pre-
sented to her, but rises when presented
to those who are evidently older than
herself. a single woman is presented
to married woman, rather than the re-
verse. Bows are now the rule in fashion
able circles. 1t is we'll to remember
this, for nothing is more awkward than
when one extends the hand and the
other takes no notice of it, just bow

Swiss Women to Have n PAPER.

The women of Switzerland have made
arrangements with the Zurich Post, one
of the most prominent Swiss papers, to
issue every fortnight supplement en-
firely under the control of women and
edited by DR.. Emily Kempin. The pur-
pose of the paper is to discuss the work
of women, to arouse in women a feeling
Of responsibility regarding their unions,
to justify the cooperation of women in
oil fields of human effort, in anticipation
of the time when women shall partici-
pate in politics, and above all to give
adequate expression to the dignity of
woman as wife and mother in all her
legal rights.

Or if You get in Polly's reach
She'll give an awful. awful scrccch,
And with her beuk she'll catch YOU.

Or get your dress i'll creases;
Don't put your hands up to your hat;
Your bangs are loosc-remembcr that
And they may come to pieces.
Don't pull the buttons Off your shoes
Or laugh when Polly charters;
You mustn't mind her talk IL bit,
But only shut your eyes and sit
And think of other matters.
And promise, Dolly, not to pout,
1t makes you look so simple,
For every time you frown. YOU know,
1t makes the horrid wrink les grow
And spells your pretty dimplc.

III have no cause To scold YOU.

a Popular Color.

The prevailing color is still green, and
in combination with white this bids fair
to outrival the late much favored violet
and green for summer wear. Not only
are dresses to be made green, but beau
tiful white wool or silk wraps will he
worn with them, lined with the brighter
color. While some green's are very
charming to the eye, most are extremely
trying to the complexion. But if fash
ion says green woman will find some
way of making fashions mandate fit her

Women Bootblacks In France.

A custom is rapidly gaining ground in
France, and especially i'll Toulon and
certain other towns, which. it may safe
ly be prophesied, will not find much imi-
tation in this country. This is the EN-
ployment of women as street shoeblacks.
The Frenchwomen shoeblacks are most
coquettishly gotten up, and as to their
caps and frills have somewhat the ap-
pearance of hospital nurses, and it is
surprising that, though their occupation
is tolerably dirty one, they always seem
clean and tidy. Some of them are doing
the polishing in gauntlet gloves.

The woman who attracts attention to-
day is she who has a fine carriage, who
knows for one thing how to carry her
elbows well. This is one of tho strong
points with the girl who practices pri-
vate gymnastics to acquire the habit of
keeping the elbows quite behind the
waist while walking. The smart woman
who attracts not SO much for her beauty
Of face as fine general appearance, car
ries her head high, her chest well thrown
out and her elbows we'll back out of the
way. The bearing of such n woman
has an effect at once. She creates moro
interest and is moro admired than u real
beauty who has no dignity or grace of
carriage.
A great many city women, who I'M
derstand fully the significance OF these
facts, take daily exercises i'll front of Il
long pier glass a favorite movement
and one of the simplest is to sway the
body from right to left and from left to
right, taking care to keep tho portion he
low the hips firm and in one straight po-
sition. Then, with the eyes on the cell
ing, she bends forward as far as possible
without bending the knees, then back

regular number of times, she practices
expanding the chest by lifting her hands
in circle and taking deep. full breath,
which is expelled from tho lungs rs tho
hands return TO place on the chest
