One afternoon, during the first few days
OF the not spell in the early part Of this
month, says the Washington, d. c.. Star,
a large. stout. fiord citizen was making
his way along + street with more than
ordinary care in the picking out of his
path. II may have been that the heat
was bothering him and rendering his pa
radedeVious, but it is more probable that
ne had partakeu of a heavy lunch of high
pals exclusively. At any rate. when a
crew of about twenty little tots of girls,
dressed alike for the most part and pre-
coded aud followed by hooded sisters,
came toward f street along one of the
numbered thoroughfares, the ford citizen
seemed to be moved to a deep feeling of
compassion He Strengthened himself out,
took half a dozen straightaWay steps for
practice to see if he could do it. and then
he walked up to the sister in front of
the orphans. He carried himself admir-
ably, considering that luncheon.
"Orphans?' he inquired, raising his hat
very politely to the sister.
Yes, sir" replied the sister.
Like soda water don't they?" asked
the man, keeping himself well in hand.
The sister smiled atiirmatively.
Just fetch 'em In here, sister," said the
big man, gripping himself in good shape
and not making a break in his little part
of charity.
The sisters conferred, and then they
followed the man into a drug store with
their charges. The little ones all looked
big-eyed and eXpectant when they were
lined up at the soda water fountain. The
ladies sitting at the counter cheerfully
resigned their seats to the tots. The stout
man leaned over to the youth behind the
fountain, said to him, Ice cream soda
water for the bunch" threw down three

the sisters and got outside, where he was
Immediately in difficulties again as to his
locomotion after having gone through his
good-souled little turn without a falter.
It costs more, says the Kansas City
Star to make ones debut in England than
in America, for over there girl is not
properly introduced until she has been
presented at court, and the cost of launch
ing daughter in society is something to
drive impecunious fathers into a lunatic
asylum. One girl who came up from her
Berkshire home TO be presented this spring
has given account of what she en-
dured, and what her fathers pocket-book
suffered. First, a large, aristocratic ana
in London for the season-nearly every
one rents his town house now-and a big
rent charged. Then began the work OF
laying IN a wardrobe.
This girl first paid a visit to a place
where corsetS are made to order. She
had a pretty figure, but madame insisted
waist to be beautiful. She was measur-
ed and fitted for riding, opera and ordi-
nary corsets, and the bill came to 500.
Twenty-Five pairs of the smartest boots
and slippers added to the bills. A score
of pretty hats, to go with various dresses,
made a big hole in $500, and three times
riding habit cost $50, a bicycle suit the
same and several dozen pairs of gloves
to match were no small item.
The presentation dress cost 5000, though
it was plainly made of exquisite white
satin broche. For a fee of SIS a lady
came and taught the young woman the
court bow, the way to courtesy and carry
her train. This was hard work for a deb
tante and she said she was tired after
an afternoon with her teacher as though
she had spent the time on the golf links.
but few brief seconds she spent in the
royal presence. But she was properly
launched and happy.
Note the women you meet each day and
see how many smooth foreheads you see
even on young faces. Almost all of the
wrinkles and FUCKERS are the result of
carelessness-the few exceptions are lines
caused by pain and suffering. The long,
straight lines on the forehead are caused
by the senseless habit OF eievating the
Oh hot Cd rrHvv
preston to the face when all it really
does is to make ugly lines ~hich need
quantities of cold cream and gentle mas
sage to remove. Middleaged faces are
often marked by lines just over the tenn
pies. while the rest of the face remains
smooth and young looking. They can be
avoided by the eXerton of a little thought
a little care in keeping the face in re-
pose. And just think how you can rest
the poor, overWorked muscles by allow
ing the eyes and mouth to give the neces-
sary expression and serenity to spread it,
self over the remainder of the features.
"sll never say another word about the
advantages of European education for
girls" said the woman from the West 10
the Washington Post. "In never talk
about the charm OF the convent bred

and one of the prettiest young women ia

benefit. She is more than pretty. She
