The Middle Aged Woman.

Fashion of late years has done much TO.
ward improving the appearance of the
middle aged woman. 1t was not so many
years ago that the mother of q young lady
daughter was always attired in somber
colors. For her to be smartly gowned
was not considered correct form. Black,
gray and the dull shades of heliotropc
were permissible, but the brighter colors
were entirely out Of the question for the
middle aged womans gown.
Now decided change has taken place,
and it is not strange to sec both mother
and dauCLtcr appear in costumes off the
same piece. House gowns of white crepon,
trimmed With violet ribbons, are charm
ing when wrcn by woman with silvery
hair. Tie new grenadines make appro-
pirate afternoon toilets. The Louis Quinzo
jackets are we'll adapted to tho elderly
woman of today, and they possess q state
ly style to which mono of her garments go
years ago ever owned.
And she is not compelled to wear q
morning cap either. Her hair may be fash
ionably arranged and her bonnet as chic
as her granddaughter OF course tho
woman of 80 does not appear in cherry
colored gowns, but touch of color is
quite allowable. Pelerines of black lace
are made over colored foundation, and a
vest of some soft tint only has tendency
to make tho gown more becoming.
Age demands more attention than youth,
and the elderly woman Of today realizes
this and dresses accordingly Fashion

They were lifting her tenderly out oil

Keeping the DabY Amused.

Perhaps the following suggestions may
help you to find occupation for your busy
baby boy, writes Elizabeth Robinson Sco-
vii In The Ladies' Home Journal: A baby
will be attracted for short time by some
fine toy that he can simply look at, but he
will spend ten times rs long in putting
pegs into holes in board contrived for
the purpose or in taking out one by ono
from well filled basket articles no matter
what-spools, blocks, clothespins-any-
thing so that they are sometimes changed
and he does not tire of the monotony.
Then the task of putting them all back
keeps him busy for a still longer time.
AS baby becomes moro discerning and
his fingers moro nimble, pleasing dc.
vice for his employment is board with
variously shaped holes round, square, tri-
angular, etc, with blocks and spheres to
fit into the various places. Should these
be in bright colors his love for color may
also be gratificd, and learning these col
ors soon follows.
Little tasks of carrying articles from
one portion of the room to another or
from room to room will often keep child
busy and interested for hours. A small
hammer and tacks, with soft board into
which to drive them, is generally delight
to any child old enough not to put tho
taoks into his mouth. So simple arc the
employments that will satisfy the little
tot that almost any mother will find them
constantly suggesting themselves.

Is family where much reading aloud ia

the wise, witty or curious truths and say
ings that please the mind nightly as they
arc reaS One Of the members of the fam
lily, who is clever with his pen, illustrates
many Of the sayings in black and white
while listening to the reading. In spare
moments, while waiting, the contents of

II the chips were all of u size and unsoiled,

shrugged its shoulders and said: "She
can't pose as an infant Why, to our Ger.
tain knowledge she has been grown up for
at least eight years"
Thus the battle between tho real and
the fictitious ogo began, and it was quito
as hard to make people believe, even with
the help Of tho Bible than it was prccccity
rather than precision that had been tho
agent In converting "A small girl into Is
grown woman.
This is one side of the story. Tho other
Is the unnecessary and ridiculous deception
that some women think necessary in TO-
gard to their ages when they have once
turned 25. Each year appears TO them bus
an added burden, and, as though maturity
were something to be ashamed of, they SEQ
up q new system Of calculation, allowing q
birthday to come around only once in two
or three years. Now, isn't that bit OF
folly quito as much to be derided as tho
other phase that attacks us early in life?
This is the age of woman, and she is not
entitled to that distinction until the teens
have been we'll left behind and she has
acquired graceful roundness of expert
ence that tinges her conversation, her
walk and her ways Dignity has charm
superior to kittenish flippancy The prog
rcss that has made the world better place
to live in has likewise set its seal upon tho
intellect Of man, and the real thinker, the
real worker, wants companions not toys,
in the women he meets daily. There is a
rare charm in youth that can never be
dimmed, yet there Is another in ripened
perfection that lives longer and can only
be acquired from actual living experience.
Therefore why need tho sensible woman
care as she sees the years fit by, for, though
they bring gray hairs, they likewise bring
richer, purer emotions and nobler senti-
ments, the just reward for the loss Of
youths hopes and rosy visions. -Phila

Il Room For tho Children.

Children arc proverbially fond of bright
things, and even the smallest tots reach
out for the colored pictures with evident
delight a room, therefore, the walls OF
which are covered with these pretty things
is sure to appeal to all their hearts
The various art magazines, the papers
and some few of the finest advertising
cards will supply the material. All that
you need to make q picture room out OF
tho ordinary nursery is little energy and
q generous supply Of that gumption at
tributed to all live Yankees
The pictures should first be sorted and
some kind of order arranged. Then when
you have o sufficient number and have
planned how to place them so as to get
the best results you will be ready to begin
the practical work.
Each picture should be set within a
frame, SO to speak, or each should be sur
rounded by q molding tackled about tho
edge. The best for the purpose is the mar
row half inch width painted in n flat
tone, such Us papa hangers use about the
panels of u room. If that is moro costly
than seems wise, in view of the amount
required, the ordinary gilt sort will an
swer. The main essential Is to get some
thing unobtrusive and as plain as possible.
The pictures once grouped and the mold
ings selected, the next step Is to make
smooth flour paste and to cover the entire
wall with the gay, pretty scenes. Then
whom they are dry and firm fit the mold
ing about each one and tack the strips in
place with the long slender brads made
for the purpose.
The one difficulty is to make the joints
of the molding neat and exact. All the
rest is simple, and only little Judgment
Is required to make a collection which will
be 10 the children q perpetual delight
One woman of unusually fertile re-
sources has hit upon q plan for dispensing
with the wood molding and for using or
binary MANILA rope Ia its place. Her sue
cess hos been great, and hefroom is In some
ways better than the ordinary sort, so IL
the molding seems troublesome fact
there Ia way Of evading that part OF tho
work.
In this especial room the pictures are Sc
lected with unusual care and arc grouped
according to size. The rope Is carried in
straight lines, both horizontal aud verti-
cal, between tho edges and Is tackled fast
has each place Of meeting with an orna-
mental nail.
Tho effect Is really an excellent one,
and the rope makes quite sufficient
fraJne In addition to having reduced both
the labor and tho cost.-New York Her

Especial Correspondence
NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-A sound mind
goes witha sound body. 1t was Horace,
Ibelicve, who uttered this aphorism 900
years ago. The amerule holds good to-
day. The two are inseparable coneom-
ltants. A man or woman to attain the
zenith of intellectual power must be at his
Or her best physically. The world is full
of proofs of this truism. Two cases in
point will suffice. Bismarck, the grand
old man of the Fatherlaud, began to
show signs of mental decay 10 years ago,
when he was overtaken by kidney and
liver troubles, brought on by inertia and
excessive indulgences in food and drink.
When he remedied these by medical
treatment and u judicious amount of
daily exercise, he quickly regained his in
tellectual vitality.
So, too, with your own removed states

played the greatest breadth of mind
when his physical powers were the great

tai strength began to sap. Mind you,
there are weak and even sick men and
women who possess remarkable intel
lectual vigor. They are generally those
whose cerebral qualities-always greater
from birth-develop at the expense of
their physical ones. rigidly maintain,
however, that if i'll these cases tho body
was equally attuned with the mind from
childhood their brain expansion would
be all the greater.
How can health be acquired? Simply
by observing tho laws of nature. Eat.
drink, sleep, walk, run and exercise in
modcration-in other words, train, not
as fighters and jockeys do, but as God
intended you should do The boxer and
the rider go through fearful and arluous
exercise for few weeks to prepare them
selves for contest of skill and endur-
ance which may last Il minute or Il day.
My advice to yon. my follow men and
women, is to train lightly and constant

contest, but for the enduring battle of
life. Train properly, then, to get strong,

Grafton. Walk-vary by running if YOU
have the conveniences- distance every
day, according to your physical condi-
ton when you begin training. Some
men can walk 10 miles a day without
hurting them. Others could not walk
two without experiencing fatigue. Wom-
en-, of course, should not begin with the
same amount of work as men. A walk

enough for them. Quit when you get
tired. You are not boxer, oarsman,
sprinter or other kind of athlete. and the
question of "gameness" does not enter
here Never overtaslx yourself. Over
work is worse than no work at all. Your
own feelings will tell you when to quit.
Above all things, join some gymna-
SUM or athletic club. To your outdoor
exercise add that of light dumbbells in
your indoor work. Be careful not to
touch heavy bells out of any feeling of
rivalry or false pride and essay feats you
see others you think your interiors per-
forming. They are built up. You are
not. The lighter the bells you try the
better. From two ounces to two pounds
will do. Use the simplest motions
backward, forward, sideways and ev-
cry other way. Any athletic instructor
can teach you them all in short order.
Stop when tired and resume when YOU
are fully recuperated. Do not go in too
strong at first. You can increase the
amount of your work when you feel
yourself growing stronger. You should
always feel invigorated and not weak
after exercise. If you experience the
latter sensation, you may be sure you
have piled on too much work This is
the great danger to be avoided. If you
do not avoid it, you will grow weaker
instead of stronger.
