SORROW AN AID TO BEAUTY.
Observations Of One Who Has Msds q
Study of Fair Sex,

Observations Of One Who Has Msds =
Study Of Fair Sex,
Observation has disproved for me the
theory that only the women devoid Of
emotion and feeling can retain a youth
full appearance in maturity. I person
ally know three women who have pass
ed through heart tragedies and cy-
clones of emotion, and who yet wear
the satin of youth upon their cheeks,
albeit their birthdays have long ceased
to be among the years festivals for
them. They said, like another before
them: my youth and my happiness
are gone, why should throw my beau
ty after them" And they straigbtway
began to battle with time and grief.
There was scientific massage for the
encroaching lines about the mouth and
eyes; there were carefully prepared
baths for the complexion and varying
food tonics" for the wasted pores:
there were outdoor exercises unlimited,
resting and sleep-producing. Strong.
great emotions. such as love and sor-
row land they walk ever hand in hand
may ravage beauty for season, but
they intensity It eventually II the ex-
terror is we'll cared for.-Ella Wheeler
Wilcox in the Woman's Homo Com
panion.

Fashoda Dispute Epltomlzed.

A conversation which is reported by
the Paris correspondent of the Lon
don Times hits off the position at Fa-
shoda very neatly. "Sir Edward
Grey's warning" said Frenchman
who was discussing the situation, was
like a notice-board, 'chasse defendue, >
put on the boundary Of an estate, but
England was not the proprietor when
she set up that board" "That may
be-" retorted an Englishman, "but
when the board is put up poachers
alone cross the boundary, whereas
sportsmen in broad daylight begin by
dkputing the right, and do not cross
till afterward." .

Photograph Film Nine Miles Lose.

A photographs Aim nine miles ana
a half in length is somewhat of a nov
city even in this age OF big things.
Three Of these articles OF the size stat
ed are now in process of construction
for use in a kinematograph. What
scenes will be depicted on them is not
yet decided, but certainly such Aim
is long enough to contain the seven
ages Of man, and although it may be
made to revolve at an immense speed
a considerable part of the time will be
consumed in witnessing the show,
should the spectator have patience to
wait to the end. The cost Of these
films is about 9200 mile. Photo
graphic films can, therefore, now be
had per yard, per acre, or per mile
