A PLEA FOR GIRLS.
Why They should Be Urged to Take Par
In

Why They should Be Urged to Take Part
IN Outdoor sports.
So much depends upon the education
of girls that the mother who gives
serious thought to the matter will at
once recognize the Importance of care
fully supervising the daily life of her
young impressionable daughter.
Muscle and nerve will not grow
strong If indoor arnusements are the
rule. Embroidery and sewing are very
well In their way, but it is absolute
cruelty to compel a growing girl to sit
in chair for an hour or two and indus
triously apply the needle.
There is no reason why girls should
not take part in some of the outdoor
sports that give to their brothers such
robust constitutions.
Health, unless built on a solid foun-
datiOn, is base counterfeit; there
fore, mothers should insist upon the
formation of habits that tend to
strengthen both nerve and muscle.
The reading of sensational literature
should be strictly forbidden, as it has a
tendency to make girls morbidlv senti-
mental and self-cOnscious, and finally
renders them incapable of approaching
high-class reading matter.
1t is bad plan to check or repress a
girl continually. Health, vitality and
exuberance of spirit go hand in hand.
Instead of trying to .subdue a nature of
this description, encourage walking,
running, horseback riding. lawn ten
mis- hand ball swimming and general
gymnastics, and the result will be
healthful and well-balanced physical
development.-Prai Farmer

Brevity is credited with being the
"soul of wit" Sometimes, however.
there comes at the end of lengthy dis
course genuine flash of humor which
more than compensates for the time pre-
vlously consumed. The Rev DIR. Broad
US was giving the junior class at the
Baptist Theological seminary their first
lecture. The Junior class began by
showing the white heat earnestness of
high resolutions. 1t wanted to make a
good impression Ell DIR. Broadus, and
so it leaned over with drawn brows
and drank in every word of the speaker,
allaylng in some slight degree its con-
Stunning, unquenchable thirst for knowl-
edge. But the wint of the junior class
did not hold out. The steady, sluggish
flow of dry facts about word roots swept
away the noble resolve The Junior
class began to get neck weary as DIR.
Broadus talked of things 5000 years
old. That was little too remote for
the junior class, which was fabby and
out of training from a long vacation.
The Junior class tried to suppress a
yawn, fought against it and then yawn-
ed under its hand.
''Seventhly, said DR.. Broadus. This
seventhly was broken up in sections,
and there were so many of them that
they consumed almost the entire alpha
bet. And lastly" the lecturer said.
The junior class could not hide its
relief, though it tried hard enough.
And, with the smoothest utterance
the speaker concluded. L expect you
are about as tired of me now as your
congregations will be of you some day."

THE WORK NC DRESS,
Why T. should lie simply Made and Com
fOrtably Fitted.

Why r. should lie simply Made and Com
fOrtably Fitted.
1t is a good thing for houselzeepers
that the skirt and blouse styles of
dress are in such general use. These
loose styles of waists are much more
convenient in working than the tight
fitting waist, which in a wash fabric
is so apt to shrink and get ont of
shape
A light quality OF American flannel
of dark cloth color is the most suitable
material for working dresses, though
some hOusekeepers use a firm. good
quality of cambria or bingham in win
ter as well as summer. In either case,
whether the working dress is made of
wool or cotton, 1t should be simply
made and comfortably fitted, and
made SO that it may be easily washed
The best design is a skirt with a plain
hem, with possibly few tucks above
1t. and for the bodice some variety of
the blouse waist, which is made with
out a lining, so that it may be worn
over IL clOsc-titting unaerwaist. The
varieties of this comfortable under
waist are so great that styles may be
found becoming to stout as well as
slender figures. In a neat dress of this
kind, with white apron at hand to
put on in exchange for bingham one,
the working woman may ALWAYS be
presentable in case of an unexpected
caller-N. y. Tribune.

Glow beautiful is the human foot

will remember he said, that in all
the great Greek and Roman sculptures
the most shapely feet are.those in which
the large toe is represented as being
little apart from the other four.
During Sarah Bernhardt S last visit
to New York she came to my studio to
have some photographs taken of herself
successfully in three or four costumes
of different roles she was then billed
to impersonate. Among them was that
detected character of Leah. the for

There is great deal of uncertainty
as to whether it is or is not the thing
to fold the napkin after formal meal.
If one is staying in the house and
knows that napkin rings are in use, it
seems reflection upon that custom to
fling the napkin down in an untidy
heap. An elegantly-appointed table
deserves better treatment, even at the
end of the meal, than those disheveled
piles of drapery, too. Therefore it al
ways seems fittest to simply half fold
the napkin, anu not attract attention
to 1t either by one obtrusive habit or
the other.
