Mason states in lis memoirs of Ma
poleon, that the Little Corporal Bit
terly regretted that no woman ever really
loved him. Even Nine. Waiewska mar
ried as soon as Napoleon was sent TO st.
Helena, proving conclusdveiy that her
course of action asaprometed by the
love of her conldry;s and not fer anygten-
derness that she may have felt for the

Nevertheless, if Napoleon was a failure
as .lover and busbana'l according to
Mason he succeeded in retaining the
alteration Of his foster mother to the
enc. The deepest affection existed be-
tween. Mammuccia caterina and her
nursing. She came to Paris to see him
crowned Emperor, and when told by Ma
poleon to ask him for any favor, begged
that h might be introduced to the
Pope.
The old lady so amused his Holiness
with accounts of her "garcon," as she
was wont to call the Emperor, that he
forgot in her society the difficulties of
his situation. Mammuccia Caterina
nearly died of grief when she heard of
her garcon's dowffaAaA And nothing could
be more forcible than the terms with
which she denounced Marie Louise for
not following Napoleon into exile.
Mammuccia Caterina, despite her great
age, was preparing to go to comfort her
garcon at ST. Helena when she died.
During his prosperity, Napoleon heaped
favors upon her and her family. Today
her descendants bear the title of barons,
and are received in the best society in
Paris. Their family name is Saverias.
A spider, a bee. a butterfly and a wasp
of sparkling iridescent emeralds n
sapphires and topez adorn the neck of
beauty as lace pins.
One swallow may not make a summer,
but a fight of swallows assuredly makes
a gift Of no small value and beauty,
when made of the most glittering brill
liants. And not alone is such an orna-
ment lovely to gaze upon, but it is ex-
ceedingly useful. Each swallow there
are five, can be separated and worn
either as a brooch or as an ornament for
the hair.
1t is a most proper thing just now to
adorn the couture with diamonds, and an
eminently becoming fashion.
A fanciful little pin is the robin red
breast upon a branch of leaves and ber-
ries; the robin has jeweled wings with
which to noun upward and away and
his breast is enameled in irideseent red.
An odd conceit is a white rabbit, his
body all pearls, his pink eyes are of the
balas ruby, and his long, long ears, they
too, are pearls with a suggestion Of pink
about their tips. The pink of the balas
ruby. which, by the way, belongs to the
spinel class.
Said little rabbit, perched upon his
ind legs, upon a gold bar, is gazing
upon a butterfly all glistening with yell
low and purple with golden beryls and
amethysts.
DR.. Cyrus Edison, ex-president of the
New York Board of Health, writes con-
corning bathing, in June Ladies' Home
Journal':-'A cold douche or any form of
shower bath should not be used when a
person is tired or exhausted from any
cause, as the reaction, on which the shock
depends for its beneficial effect, does not
follow effectually when the system is
tired.
The result of the shower in such a case
is apt to be internal congestion, which
may be disastrous. It does not follow,
however, that a perspiring person should
not battle until cooled off. As a matter of
fact, if the person is not exhausted the
fact that the pores are open is rather adj
v~antageous than otherwise, as the reac-
ton is enhanced and will probably follow
more energatically. A bath should never
be taken within two hours of a hearty
meal. The first effect of immersion in
warm or in cold water is to seriously de
range the digestive process if that is pro-
crossing at the time, and by a physiologi-
cal effect that naturally follows, to unbal-
ance or derange the whole nervous sys-
tenn. The result of this is extremely dam
gerous to the bather. There are numerous
instances of severe illness and ever of
death caused by bathing while the stom-
ach was full"
The necessity of using some emollient
for the hair from time to time is an es-
tablished fact. Many people foolishly ne
glect to do this because they object to
have their heads at all greasy, but never
theless it is better for the hair that some
nourishment should be used, especially
after it has been washed.
If rubbed into the skin, and only a small
quantity used, there will be really no dis
agreeableness; 1t is when it is put on su-
perficially and the hair itself plastered
down that the nastiness of it arises. A
very pleasant rosemary pomade may be
made by taking half a pound of fresh lard
and two large handfuls of flowers of rose
mary.
These two things must he well boiled
down in a saucepan until reduced to about
half the quantity, then it must be strained
off carefully SO as to remove any gritty
pieces hat there might he left behind in
the lard, and PVT away in a small jar.
Just a little of this used to the roots
every week will keep the hair in good
condition. 1t is always an important
thing to prevent the hair from becoming
too dry, for when this arises there is al
ways a tendency for the premature APP
pearance of gray hair.
Killed tulle and lsse is very popular
just now for hat ibrims, and is used in
conjunction with straw crowns as well
as with those made of lace and crimson.
The killing is oftentimes plain, but in
