CHOOSING HATS AND BOSSETs.

No fallacy is so complete and, it may
be said, so universal, as that which
persuades woman to buy certain
style OF hat or bonnet because some
woman she hes seen looks we'll in that
particular style. What is one mans
meat is another mans poison is not
more true than that what suits one
womsn's face in the matter OF bonnet
or hat is almost unbecoming!y antag.
onistic to another. It is difficult to
lay down rules to govern choice be-
You'd the one OF finding model hat
for the face and then adhering to it
through changing fashions, with,
however, conformity to the prevail
ing style that is always easy to secure.
A woman with q regular face may
permit herself more license, but she
looks her best when it is framed by q
dropping brim. The irregular face
with retrousse nose can becomingly
wear the reverse. Sharp profiles and
long necks should not have these
points accumulated by angular bon.
nets, and the woman with high cheek
bones must not emphasize the defect
by nassing the trimming OF her bon
net in point on top. Modern millin.
ers now study the face and endeavor
to suit it in the headgear, bringing
out virtues and neutralizing defects.
It is quite possible, By giving the mat
ter little experimental considera.
ton, that the buyers of bonnets as
we'll as the makers should be similarly
iudiclous. New York Times.

VALUE OF SLEEP.

Women who sleep great deal and
comfortably, who are addicted to maps,
and regard nine hours of wholesome
rest as absolutely requisite to to their
physical well.being, are the women
who defy the frosJing hand of time.
Those are the women whose wrinkles
are few and far between, and whose
eyes remain the brightest and cheeks
the rosiest for the longest period after
the bloom of youth has fed. No less
notable beauty than Dian de Po1c-
tiers, who retained her irresistible
loneliness until her SEVENTEEN year,
recognized the value Of sleep as pre-
ventive OF wrinkles. Indeed, so fear
full WAS she Of losing a moment of per-
feet rest, thai, mistrusting the beds of
aer friends, she carried her own, with
its splendid fittings, on all her Jour
neys. -Philadelphia Inquirer.

4 WO.lAN LION.TANTE.

London is enthusiastic just at pres.
ent over the fine specimens of South
African lions on exhibition at the
Royal Aquarium, but there is good
deal OF feeling about the fact that their
trainer is woman. She is known as
the Countess X, and claims to have a
right to her title, but hides her faoe
behind mask, which she never fails
TO wear. The Countess X, however,
is not so careful to conceal her arms
and her shoulders, which bear numer-
GUS and cruel scars to show that her
huge pets have not always been obedi-
ent. When in the cage she never
strikes the animals, but projects her.

fWOsIAN's WALK.

Glow women walk" has recently
been the subject Of discussion in
Partisan journal. According to this
authority the palm must be awarded
to Frenchwomen. The Englishwo-
man, it states, does not walk; she
travels. Her limbs appear to be moved
by the engine Of a steamer. and. her
feet have the proportions OF On Allan
tic liner! Concerning the gait of
women OF other countries, this inter-
esting journal goes on to remark thai
the German is heavy; one feels tho
earth tremble beneath her tread; the
Spanish woman ''prances, She Ameri-
can resembles the pendulum OF clock,
the Italian ''skips,'' the Russian
"skates, thelDutchwomaDI trolls and,
the Belgian Cramps about" Now,
although these remarks are ungellant
and uncomplimentary, we cannot but
own chat there is cer!ain amount OF
truth in them. Numbers of women do
not seem to care how they walk, SO
long as they cover the distance they
wish to traverse somehow. But If they
could only see themselves as they ap-
pear to the casual onlooker how very
differently they would comport them
selves! How often is a pretty face
and figure spoiled by q stoop OF the
shoulders and a wriggling, busting
walk! Corsician women are models
of queenly grace, and the reason is
plain. They have a curious custom OF
carrying burdens, water pots, etc., on
their heads; I noticed a Cors1can wo.
man going on board steamer at Mar
settles not long ago, carrying her baby
in her arms aud her portmanteau on
her head. As nearly all the water IN
Corsica is carried from wells by women
in water pots, the women acquire from
youth the practice of carrying burdens
On their heads. An hours practice OF
this exercise day with. for instance,
book or pillow on the head, would
do wonders in the way OF making US
into types CT grace and ease' when be-
tore we we're the exact opposite.

The Dream Of Love.

Love is fitting shudoY,
The dream of passing sleep,
That soothes for q time each sorrow,
And dries the eyes that weep. ,,
Love is restless slumber
That leaves the heart strings sore
At the slow but sure aw&king,
When its iitful dream is DER.
Love IS transient vision,
A glimpse of a purer sphere,
Whose influence lives forever,
Though brief Its SWEETS appear. 9
Love is an hours deLusion,
A wine for the heart and brain
That leaves, when its hour is over,
Sweet thoughts that are warped with pain

A Glass Box for Perishable Article:

A Glass Box for PeriShable Articles
There seems to be no limit to the
ingenuity bestowed upon the devisiug
of means for accomplishing the trans
port of the perishable produce of dis
tant climes to the English market. A
new method is that of packing butter
in box made of six sheets of ordin-
ary glass, all the edges being covered
with gummed paper. The glass box
is enveloped in layer of plaster Of
paris, one-fourth of al inch thick, and
this is covered with specially prepared
