Queer Chinese Bedrooms.

Chinese ideas of comfort are moth.
ing short of startling to luxury loving
Americans. The Chinese bedrooms
even in the homes of the well-to-do
present many features which would
be uncomfortable to an American or Eu.
ropean.
A Chinese bedchamber has no win
dows, is poorly ventilated and dark in
consequence, and is usually no larger
than a cupboard. The wooden bed
stead has no springs, nor does mat
tress soften the hard boards. Usually
a wadded quilt suffices.
For pillows there are hollow square
frames of bamboo or rattan, or Otter
just a block of wood of the right shape
to fit into the nape of the neck and
give support to the head.
The furniture of the bedroom is OF
the simplest. 1t usually includes, how
ever, an opium-smoking outfit, even il
the occupant be not confirmed smo
ker. Any apparatus designed to facil
itate washing is considered superf1u
Gus. The Chinaman does not wash
any more than he can help. If he
has bathed his face in a cloth which
has been wrung out in hot water he
considers himself. ready for the frs
and most important act of the day
which is attendance at the family
shrine.

A straight Edge an Tmpossibiliiy.

One of the difficult problems in prac-
teal mechanics is to make straight
edge" How difficult it is may be
Judged from an incident which occur
red in the shop of j. A. Brashear, the
astronomical instrument maker. A
customer asked Mr.. Drashear what
would be the price of perfectly
straight edge of glass SO inches Ions. :
1T can't be made absolutely perfsc-;.f
said Mr.. Brashear, but it could p.ot-
ably be made with limit of error
amounting to only a fraction Of o
wave-iength of light" How much
would that cost?v about 100000. .
1t turned out that the customer want
ed the straight edge for scraper,
and that an error of one-sixty-fourth
of an inch would have been insensib)e

A Woman on Marriage.

"Not one woman in a thousand mar
ries the man she wants." says Mrs.
White, president of the California
Club, large women's organization.
Women" she continues, do not
choose their husbands because it is
not permitted them to do SO. They
must take what they can get. Woman
dare not show a preference unless she
desires to shock society by. an eX-
hibition of indelicacy and repell the
man she seeks, who looks upon pur.
suit as his divine right.
Society is simply marriage mar
ket," according to this eminent au-
thority. "Our young women are
trained and educated and groomed
with the one end in view Of making
a good showing in this marriage mar.
ket-of increasing their value. All the
accessories of fashionable society, the
environment, the amusements and the
dress are arranged and designed for
the purpose of accentuating and call
ing attention to feminine charms. Our
men patronize the market, inspect and
select. Woman simply accepts and
subscrfbes to the conditions and she
does so because she wishes to-"

Bits of Femininity.

Fleece-lined piques are very popular
in Paris for shirt waists.
With the revival Of antique jewels,
seed pearl necklaces are again worn.
White military cloth with billowy
chiffon trimming makes a fetching
evening cloak.
A long polonaise of crepe de chene
over an embroidered satin skirt is a
very striking combination.
Mousquetaire gloves, with the long
wrists worn over the dress sleeves,
are again in style.
To be in good form tailor frocks must
no longer be lined with contrasting,
but with the self color.
Charming evening coats are the long
black satin affairs lined with white or
light colored satin and trimmed with
fur.
Artificial flowers play very i'm
portrait part among the new evening
gownAs None but the very best are
used.
Yellow broadcloth or chamois-col-
ored broad-cloth is considered very
smart for shirt waists with black tail
or fr9ck{
Walstcbats are much favored by wo-
men this winter, cut double-breasted

are using.
Stitching and fringe are the two
dominant notes in present Paris fash
ions. Silk aid satin and even velvet
frocks show bands of stitched cloth
for trimming.
White cloth guipure over pale gray
silk makes a very stunning yet dainty
gown; this material is used over cloth
quite as much as silk.

locket attached, is beginning to APP

which are so smart part of the pres

okIahoma's Business Women.

A New York grain man went down
to Oklahoma a few days ago and
brought back a choice collection of
Territory stories. He was telling
some of them at the Union Club the
other night.
1.-THE thing that impressed me most,
outside of the grain business" he said,
''was the practical ability of the wo-
men down there. I've heard a great
deal about the clever business women
here in New York, but / never hap
pened to come in contact with any OF
them. In Oklahoma about half my
business was done with the women.
You see, when that country was open
ed up, hundreds of women ran for
claims, got them, cultivated them anu
are working them to-day. A woman
who can do that sort of thing Is bound
to have hard horse sense, if she hasn't
culture, and what those women don't
know about running farms isn't worth
reporting to the Department OF Agri-
culture. Most of them are Northern
women; and, by the way, the sharpest
piece Of business practice | heard of
was worked by girl from western
New York. She wasn't down there at
the time Of the run; but her brother
in-law staked claim down near Gu
thrie, and, after while, the New
York girl went to visit her sister
The New York girl wasn't so very
young, but she was fairly good look
ing; and, after she'd been there a
week, there was usually a long line
of cow ponies hitched to the brother
in-law's front fence and the girl was
having the time of her life. She made
up her mind she'd like to live in Okla
homa; and some twenty or thirty
young men made up their minds they
would like to have her live in Okla
homa.
1.-THE two finest farms in the country
were about five miles from the broth
er-in-law's, and lay side by side. There
were living springs on them and some
shade, and the two owners We're fine
young fellows and were making things
hum. They both fell in love with the
girl, and she liked both. In fact, she
couldn't make up her mind which she
liked the better; and she was SC
pleased with both the farms that she
felt as if she couldn't give up either
Of them.
Now just listen while l tell you
how she got out of the difficulty. One
of the men was a sooner That is, he
had been hidden, inside the lines, be-
| fore the time when the Government
opened the country for the rush. Nc
one could prove it against him; but
of course, he had no legal right to his
claim; and, if his title could be dis
proved, some one else could stake the
land. In a burst of confidence, one
evening. he told the girl all about his
experience as sooner. Then she
made up her mind. She wheedled him
into repeating the story before wit
nesses, disproved his claim, nabbed il
herself and married the young mar
next door. Now they are running botf
farms in pleasantness and peace
How's that for business enterprise?

Novelties in Millinery.

For everyday-wear fashion dictates
that we use boat-shaped hats of soft
felt or cloth, the newest Of these be-
of these being heavily stitched Their
sole ornamentation consists of large
fancy quilts, kept in place by brooches
made of birds claws set in silver.
Stitching is very much seen on our
millinery this year. A velvet hat with
stitched brim is quite the mode, and
a remarkably pretty felt hat was
trimmed with swathing of cerise vel
vet, heavily stitched with white. An
other hat had outstanding bows of
black velvet on it. stitched three or
four times on either side with white
silk. Stitched velvet seems incon-
gruous, but we cannot apply that term
to anything on which fashion deigns
to smile, and as at the moment she de-
lights in this vagary we must accept
1t.
All the empire hats have high
crowns, but the brims are uncertain,
for no two are alike. The present
headgear requires a great deal of put
ting on, indeed, and no well-dressed
lady looks herself in her hat until she
has worn it six or eight times and ar
ranged it to suit her face. The side
expression of hat should be first
looked at, and then the back; the front
manages itself. All the hats now be-
Ing worn look better when put on q
little to one side.

Two HANDY Pockets.

The small lace handkerchief some
times gives the owner much trouble.
This annoyance can be done away with
if one has in her gown small
pocket on the left side of jacket or
waist. This can be made either tri-
angular, square or round in shape; the
small bit of lace is tucked into this
and the edges peep over the top OF
the pocket.
Another pocket does away with the
rolling up of the handkerchief and put
ting it up the sleeve. The sleeve at
the wrist has a small slit which adj
mits the handkerchief and allows the
border to fall over the glOved hand.

Women as real estate dealers are
making comfortable incomes through
out the State of New York. The wo-
man sales agent and house broker Is
being constantly multiplied.
The main reason for the fair sex
taking up real estate as PROFESSION

which to start. Women that have en-

times begun plots for the large con-

wafer freely between meals. Discard
potatoes, cereals, pastry, candy ana
butter. Walk as far every day as is
possible without excessive fatigue.
ANY one who follows these directions
carefully is nearly certain to lose a
good deal of shperfiuous flesh In a
