BESIDES the natural mistakes of youth,
moreover, the man or woman Of a de-
cade ago is actually not the man or WO-
man or to-day. Mentally, morally, as well
as physically, the particles change, un-

is always change, and sometimes a radi-
cal one; ana II is an undOubted fact that
the qualities that excite love and admira-
ton seldom retain their power after a
certain lapse of time, unless new and mu-
tuai interests arise to cement the attrac-
ton Hence long engagements are a mis-
take as rule, and even if they are con-
summated after years of waiting, people
are rarely the same.

so powerful q writer, and so Fascinating
a woman, saw the absurdity of il, and
objected. She had no mind, she said, to
be addressed as a school girl and request
ed her friends to use the prefix Mrs
1t would, of course, be simple enough
for every one to address all rniddIe-aged
women with the prefix Mrs But that
would mean concession. No concession is
wanted; the thing is to put the matter on
dlnerent basis. AS the school boy buds
into the man, the Master is dropped for
Mr. and as the school girl buds into the
woman, the Miss should be dropped for
Mrs. the original significance of the

practically worldwide is no argument ia

Have you a good recipe for making rose
leaf pillows, which every woman who
lives near rose tree is going to make
this year? The roses, says the Philadel-
phia Ledger, chosen must be as perfect
as possible, all withered, scentless pet
ais being discarded. They are cured
much in the same manner as those for
lar use. They must in no case be dried
in the hot sun, but spread out upon a
beard or some other fiat surface, where
there is dim light and no intense heat.
AS in the case of the jars also they are
treated with common salt, which is at
FIRST laid in layers and afterward thor
oughly mixed through.
There is a preparation known as Japa-
nose potpourri which comes at very rea-
sonable prices. A small quantity of this
mixed with the leaves imparts a sweet
mystic odor which added to the fragrance
of summer roses, makes delicious pill
low.
