For the decoration of a mantel the fol-
lowing scheme has been recommended:
First cover the wood or marble with heavy
tinfoil. Take light sprays of smilax and
lay over the edge so that it drops about IS
inches. Trim this even at the ends with
pair of shears. Purchase several pots of
thrifty lycopodium-the new golden vari-
ETY. is very handsome for the purpose
turn the plants out of the pots and place
them on the tinfoil, which cover entirely.
Fit the plants together so that there will
be one solid bed of lycopodium. On this
flowers can be laid or vases may be stood.
The bad of moss alone is very effective. II
sprinkled often, 1t will remain beautiful a
long time. This is very pretty way to

Sleeping Arrangements.

A French doctor urges that we have
been sleeping in the wrong position indef-
initely. The pillow belongs properly I'M
der the feet and not under the head. To
quote him, unless the head be low the
brain is not properly Irrigated with
blood -
Then he goes on to show how the right
habit may be gradually acquired six weeks
being good limit for making the change
without discomfort Discard the pillow
first for few nights, then do without the
bolster too. There will still be slight
rise in the mattress, which soon must be
eliminated and a level position secured.
Finally, put the pillow at the foot of the
bed, and there you are.
One of his arguments is that if nature
had intended the head to be raised in oc-
cupying recumbent position the human
body would have been differently formed.

Leather Cans Condemned.

For several seasons past there has been
a rage among small boys for russell leath-
er Tam O'Shanters. These caps are very
English and everlasting. They come in
black as well as brown leather, to match
the leggngs worn with kits and little
breeches, and cost about 1913. The com
bination is pretty enough, but the caps
have been condemned by the medical pro
fession and the professional nursery maid
as injurious. Aside from tendency to
precipitate race of baldheaded babies,
the head is heated to degree to which 50
delicate an organ as a child s brain should
not be exposed. Life is hard enough for

Dignity and pleasure of Work.

Unless woman has family to rear or
property enough to make her independent
the power of earning livelihood is essen
tial to her dignity. If she is making a
home and rearing children, she is doing
the noblest kind of work. To think for
one moment that she is being supported
does her position great injustice. But to
the childless or homeless women, of what
ever age, "A life of inactivity brings melan-
choly, discomfort and premature decay.
There is nothing, after disease, disgrace
and helpless poverty, so fatal to the en-
jOyment of life as want of occupation
or the lack of II worthy outlet for the fac
ulties. -Detroit News.

American Woman.

Of all the gifts which nature has lavish
ed upon woman, one of the most charac-
teristic is adapNblity. Few women in
Europe possess in the same degree as the
American woman the faculty of identify
ing themselves with their medium of
changing country, climate and surround
ings with so wonderful suppleness. More
perfectly than others, she accommodates
herself to circumstances while she pre-
serves her individuality in "A strange sur
rounding. Whenever we meet the American
woman-and we meet her everywhere, in
the ranks of the English peerage and of the
highest European aristocracy as well as
in more modest conditions-we are struck
with that marvellous adaptability in which
wise men see the signs of the superiority
of race or of a species. Popular Science

1t is not enough that wives must feel
that they have the love Of their husbands,
writes Edward w. Box in The Ladies'
Home journal. They should know it and
be told of it. Thoughtlessness and mis-
understanding of the nature of women are
at the bottom of all this unexpressed love
There is plenty of love abroad in ills
world, and a great part of it lies in the
hearts of our American husbands. But it
shouldn't lie dormant. When it does. it
is the love that kills. II should reach ex-
preston. 1t should he given voice and as
often and as warmly as the heart dictates
A good wife can stand Il tremendous guam
tity of love-all that any man can give
her. The danger lies rather in not giving
enough than in giving too much.
1t is not an unmanly thing for man
to love his wife, although one might read
lily believe so from the way some men 20
about it. Neither is it sickly, maud l
nor sentimental for him to show it, But
even if it were all these and more, what
of it? Who has prior claim to a hus
bands love, and who better right to
know it, What is it that men do for their
wives that is at all an equivalent for what
wives do for their husbands? Provide for
them? That's IA duty and nothing more
In some things it is well that we should go
little farther than the duty line The
more husbands remain lovers the better it
will be for the wives of our land. 1t is
the expressed love of husband that
makes n wife radiantly happy, and moth
ing else can take its place.

DR.. Mitchell deliberately maintains that,
for all the hest purposes of female society,"
it would be better that American girls
were not educated at all until they are :
than that they were overweight as they
are at present. They study seven or eight
hours n day when two or three would be
sufficient to keep their intelligence in
training, and all for what? To spend thei,
after years on IA sofa or in sickroom and
who are dearest to them.
1t il a tremendous saying, from one
speaking with authority, that as much do
nestle unhappiness is caused in America
by nervousness among women as by dram
drinking among men. Yet such is Dr.
Weir Alitchell's verdict. He holds that
every girl ought to he examined as to her
nervous temperament when about to 20
to school, and at frequent intervals after
ward, that leisure, exercise and whole
some meals ought to be insisted upon. and
that studies ought to be compulsorily di-
minished, or discontinued altogether, the
moment the well known signs of over
strain appear.
If girls are maintained in normal nerv-
Gus condition until they are II, they may
study almost as hard as they please after
ward without imperiling their " oman's
life. But let there be no mistake about
it. Overwork and unnatural worry from
