The Age of Women.

The common objection among wom-
ankind to letting their ages be known
Is not shared by the women of Japan,
who actually display their age in the
arrangement of their hair. Girls from
nine to fifteen wear their hair inter-
laced with red Grape describing half
circle around the head, the forehead
being left free with curl at each side.
From Is to 80, the hair is dressed very
nigh in the forehead, and put up at the
back in the shape of a fan or butterfly,
with interlacing of silver cord and dec
Grafton of colored balls. Beyond 80 n
woman twists her hair around shell
pm, placed horizontally at the back
o. the head. Widows, also designate
themselves, and whether or not they de-
sire to marry again.-Detroit Free

For the Bnby,s Boudoir.

The newest convenience for the
baby's boudoir is a big-bowled, long
handled spoon of yellow wood. The
bowl is painting of scene from the

classic COW performing her little aerial
1eat, Simple Simon, Little Boy Blue,
Little Nan Ettycoat and other familiar
personages ornament the bowl, whose
curling edges make frame for the
gay little figures. All along the handle
OF the spoon are placed brass hooks, and
when 1t is fastened to the wall by a
larger and more solid hook placed at
the back IL makes an ornamental and
very useful little rack for the chill
dren's clothes.

AN UPRIGHT CARRIAGE.
1t Adds to the Denuty of Maid NJ Well
MntrOn. ------

There are many things in the lives of
women which tend TO develop Il carriage
of the body anything but upright.
Girls who tend the baly become one
sided because they carry the little one
on one FIRM more than the other. They
might be taught the better way by their
parents or teachers. There are multi
tudes of little girls in all large cities
whose chief business is 10 tend the baby
while their mothers work Deformity
is common among them. If girl has
any pride in being upright in body rs
well rs in morals she can, even if she
has an occupation which tends TO make
her crooked, do much herself to pre-
vent il. In the first place carefully
cultivate the sense which tells her when
she is standing straight and when she is
not. BY paying attention to this
muscular sense il becomes in time
very acute. BY ncglecting II the sense
becomes dull--is paralyzed. Cultivate
il daily or several times day by as
suming the upright attitude. Stand be-
fore the glass and see when you are
straight. or get friend to tell you, and
then put yourself in this attitude
whenever you stand or walk, or sit AT
any labor in which you are engaged.
If you have only to walk across the
room. do it in an upright attitude. If
you have only TO stand and converse
with a friend in the street, on the road,
at a party, get yourself so accustomed
to the upright attitude that you will
feel uncomfortable in any other. In
time an upright habit will be estab-
lished. and constant attention to il will
not be required.-Dietetic Gazette.

KEEPING CRACKERS.
some Valuable Advice for Grocers
., md Housewives.

some NnlunbIe ADVICE Tor rrocers
and Housewives.
Complaints are frequently heard that
crackers bought at grocery stores are
soggy and stale-tasting, even when
comparatively fresh.
The fault is in the way they are kept.
Crackers demand warm, dry place,
and they should not be stored near oil,
fish or other strong-smelling goods
Great care should be exercised by gro
GERS in this respect. The cracker trade
is one of the most important features
VI n general grocery business, and it
should he taken care of. Crackers
should be purchased in small quantities.
so that they will not have time to get
stale before being sold. They should be
kept, as stated, In n warm, dry place,
and customers should be advised to
place them in the oven few minutes
before using. This will restore their
crispiness, even though they have be-
come damp and soggy.
All the care in the world, however,
will not build up n cracker trade IL
the crackers are not pure and fresh and
well made. Be careful in buy
ing to get the best the mar
ket affords, then push the trade for
nil there is in it. One lot of stale,
pocrly-made crackers will do more
harm than one can overcome In six
rnonths.-Mcrcantil Journal.

purchased two pieces of fretwork three
feet long. These she set up each side
fof the mantle.
With the aid of n carpenter she then
had small shelves and glass doors put
in, and n couple of secret drawers to
lend charm to the cabinet.
When all had been stained suitable
shade of pine she took fresh autumn
leaves of ruddy hue and pinned them
upon the cabinet. and over all she placed
two coats of heavy varnish.
The screen was managed in the same
way The mat" of the screen was
plain pine, stained oak, while all around
it were autumn leaves pinned on and
vanished. The leaves keep their color
perfectly if used when fresh.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS
FACTS AND FIGURES.
They Present the Economical side of
the Good Roads Question.

thc GOOu ROADS Question.
There are, it is estimated, 100000
miles of highway roads in the United
States, about 20 per cent. of the roads of
all the world. Great Britain has $780,
600 miles of roadways, and these are
some of the best in the world. Germany
has 275,OO0 miles of roads, and some of
them are as poor as the roadways of n
great country can be. France, which
has taken an enlightened view of the
good roads question for many years
and has spent by governmental or local
authority more than $1,000,000,000 on
highways, has a road mileage of 100000,
more than any other country. Russia,
with an enormous area, has only TO-
600 miles of roadways, while Italy, n
smaller country, has $4,000
For a considerable time the agita-
ton in the United States for good roads
languished for the reason, perhaps,
that by the American system of subdi-
vided local authority whats every
body's business is nobody's business"
land, controversies being frequent as
to the liability of national, state or mu-
nicipal authority for needful eXpendi-
lures, very little was done. The Nation
al League for Good Roads was organ
lied in 1892 ''to awaken general inter-
est in the Improvement of public roads,
to determine the best methods of build
ing and maintaining them and conduct
and foster such publications as may
serve these purposes" AT thebeginning
of the agitation, the good roads ques-
ton did not make much Roadway, and
1t was not until The popularity of BIZ
cycling grew that the demand for inn
proved roads became organized, and
since then considerable Roadway has
been made. \ computation which finds
much favor among the advocates OF
good roads is this: There are approxi-
mately, though the number is steadily
on the decline, 100000 horses in the
United States (there were 100000 by
the census of $500, and there are about
100000 mules, principally in the south,
the annual cost for fodder for these ami
mails being $1,500,0O0,000. On fine stone
roads one horse can haul as much as
three horses can haul over the average
dirt read of this country. 1t is esti-
mated that it would be necessary 10
build about 100000 miles of macad-
amized roads in the United States in
order to have as good system of pub
lie highways as is found in several Eu.
ropean states. At $4,000 per mile this
wOuli involve an outlnv of 81 OOO O0O OOO
Il pretty large sum. But if half of the
draught animals could be dispensed
with by the building of such roads,

The Tree in the Fail.

In the fall the tree has completed it's
growth for the season. II must now
ripen and prepare for winter. 1t can
spare some of the moisture which
comes with the fall rains. We may,
therefore, SOW some catch or cover
crop. This crop will, ifproperly plowed
under, greatly improve the mechan-
zeal condition of the soil; its roots will
catch some Of the Teaching nitrates,
of which the roots of the tree are now
in little need; IL will catch the rains
end SHOWS OF fall and winter and hold
them until they gradually percolate
into the earth; 1t will prevent the pud-
ding and cementing of the soil dur
ing winter; it will dry out the soil
quickly in spring.-Western Plowman.
