Among the women prominent IN the
literary world to-day, it is interesting to
note that many OF them are of the delicate
blonde type. Marie Corelli, whose books
sell enormously and are translated into
nearly dozen languages, is distinctly
petite, with fragile figure and a mass OF
curling hair under which a pair of large
dark blue eyes look questioningly. She
was born in Italy, but was adopted in ear
Il II. childhood by London physician, the
father of Eric Mackey, the poet who, like
Byron, "awoke and found himself fam
ous," on the publication OF his volume OF
sonnets. Corelli lavishes unbounded adj
miration upon his work and frequently
quotes from his poetry. The Romance OF
Two Worlds, has the distinction of having
caused her Gracious Majesty to forego
part of nights repose, for she refused to
go to bed until the last chapter was finish
ed at o'clock in the morning. One o
Marie Corelli's eccentricities is her deter
mination not to marry, which a goot
many men have tried to change. She ha.
made fortune by her writings, so car
afford to be independent.
Frances Hodgson Burnett is also
blonde. In one family OF her friends sh

For women Who Worry.

1t Is trite advice to tell women to take
every day as il comes, TO avoid remorse
over wha; is done. and forebodings over
what IS 10 come. but it is no less val
uabl. advice. Nervous prostratSon is
seldom the result of present trouble or
WORK. but Of work and trouble antici-
ratad Mental exhaustion comes to
those who look ahead and climb noun
raiEs before they arrive at them. Reso-
lutely build a wall about to-day and live
within the Enclosure; the past may have
teen hard. sad. or wrong-it is over.
The future may be like the past, but
the woman who worries about it may
not live to meet tiff she does she will
bear ii. The only thing with which she
should concern herself is to-day, its sun
shine, its air, its friends, its frolics, its
wholesome work, and, perhaps, its nec

ther was not inclined toward being a
central figure in public life, though /
do not mean to say he was in any way
void of ambition. 1t seems to me that
his life best tells the story of how he
felt in this regard.
The more l recall the days when
was with my father the more it seems
to me that people only caught glimpse
OF the real man. To others than his in
innate friends he was genial and open
hearted, but to those who were close
to him there was apparent a strong
and steady current of genuine human
sympathy that the outside world never
