About year ago her health commenced

more erect. her eyes brighter, her move
uents more elastic. Her hair also be-
came perceptibly darker. Her gums COM

appeared. The change in a year is said
TO be astonishing. Her hair is now black.
She has new and substantial set OF
teeth as white and strong a MA idens.
Her vitality is greatly increased. Her

Improved marriage laws have been secured

MARRIAGES. Missouri requires that all such
shall be citizens of the United States Pro
bate courts IN Michigan may now issue mar
riage licenses privately under careful regu-
iations to protect the good name in certain
cases. Oklahoma has repealed her former
loose marriage law and enacted a new one
with a system OF licenses, returns and rec
ords made Iise that of the older States. Mas
sachusetts and New Hampshire have inn
proved their excellent laws for the regis
tration of marriages stui further.
California has now matle the marriage of
divorced persons Illegal until one year after
the decree Of divorce las been rendered.
Washington makes the offer by advertise
ment to procure divorces, annulments Of
marriage, etc, a niisdemeap Kansas has
forbidden her courts TO grant divorces n the
uneorroborarnd testimony of the husband
or wife. Minnesota has adopted the former
recommendation of the commissioners on
UNIFORM legislation and made the term OF
residence in the State before divorce one
year. Maryland can now be added To the
growing list of States that provide for the
punishment by fine or imprisonment of the
man who w'llfuily deserts his wife Or child,
or who fails without Just cause to provide

COSY CORN ERs.
They Beautify and Make COMFORTABLE
the PMinest Room.

Since steam heat furnaces have, for
economical folks, put the cheerful pros
rect of glowing, inviting fireside out
of the question, women who take great
interest in their cozy home decoration
have turned their attention to the
beautifying of the corners.
A pretty artistic, and luxurious cor
ner in a little sitting room has all the
beguilng charm of bright, clean
swept hearth and such corners any
woman can have for the sake of lit
tie pains and a little outlay. She and
a not very accomplished carpenter can
select corner made by the iutting of
a chimney and the opposite wall, and
dress it most charmingly. For few
dollars the man of hammers and saws
can fit in a series of shelves against
the wall, and beneath erect a low
framework on which to rest woven
wire mattress.
This is all he really need do, for his
employer can either herself stain or
paint the shelves, arrange her books
thereon, place the spring bed on the
frame and lay over that a cotton mat
tress costing some $3 or S4. Thus. with
pillows, a few little pictures and a COW
er made of a Bellagio rug, she has
divan corner that would tempt the
sternest to repose and good humor.
Not a bit more expensively need she
fit up another angle with a corner
bookcase. The virtues of this piece of
furniture have. not yet come to be
properly realized, so that on a carpen-

I'm st. Louis.
At the convention in Chicagoon Wednes-
| day of the newly-organized National Fed
Grafton OF Women's Amateur Musical
Clubs, Mrs. Theodore Sutro, president
pro tenn, was defeated in her contest for
e regular presidency. The successful
candidate, Mrs. Edwin f. Uni, was sup
ported b. friends of Mrs. Theodore Thomas.
Back OF the contest in the convention is a
little story
Mrs. Sutro is well known throughout
the country as an ardent champion of
/ the cause of woman, and musical women
in particular. she is active in Sorosis,
and was instrumental in opening the New
York Law Institute 10 women-she her
self is grs'luate OF the institution. With
| great wealth at her command, Mrs. Sutro
is generous patron Of music, and many
struggling composers and instrumentalists
have been her proteges.
Mrs. Sutro is a decidedly pretty woman,
with sweet manner. She wears stunning
gowns. Six months ago Mrs. Theodore
Thomas was made chairman OF the execu-

musical world was startled little while
afterward wien Mrs. Thomas wrote t. the

among the thTong, and they were instantly
on their feet demanding. that the address of
tile member from Gotham be ta bled. This
was done. and Mrs Sutro was subse-
euentIy defeated for an office which she
had earned because OF her devotion to the
Federation cause.
Mrs. Su.ro accepted her rebuff with
smiling grace when Mrs. William ).
Warren, a friend of Mrs. Thomas, sug-
gested at the closing hours of the ses-
sion. in the sweetest tones ina gin%ole:
Dear Madame President: | am afraid
you are fatigued aftsr your ardueus duties'
and would suggest in the absence OF Mrs.

The temporary executive rose and said:

meet my defeat with fortitude, and l
