This is the philosophers Story of
WomHn's Domestic Life
'.The art of being comDs nionable is a
secret worth finding out, even if it takes
time and patience to learn it." aftirms
Mary Stuart Mckinney when writing Of
1.-THE Companionable Person IN the March
Woman's Home Companion. Some peo-
pie are born with the happy knack. There
is a spontaneous gaiety that you ex-
pect women to have, just as you expect
the birds to sing and the sun to shine.
Many very bad quarter of an hour has
been averted in the domestic circle by
bright laugh or gay rejoindsr. The laugh.
may be saucy and the rejoinder a bit Of
verbal buffet, but if it is only done good
naturedly it will be all the more effective.
It used baSely to be said of men that the
only way to make them happy was to
feed them well. That could only have
applied to a small and COMMONPLACE m nor
ity. Of course, no one wants an uninter-.
rllpted round of even the most brilliant
smiles any more than he would wish to
make three meals "a day off neringues and
biscuit glaces, but it is safe to say that
countless numbers Of willing and de-
lighted masculine captives may be led
by the lightest chains that gaiety and
good-humor can forge. One result of a
great deal of the imperfect education
that is dealt out by the handful nova
days is that some women are apt to set
undue value on mere book-learnng and
the gift of controversy. This kind Of a
person looks upon your little joke as be-
meath her dignity, and she treats You
to a somber harangue on the necessity Of
havin. serious views of life at the mo-
ment when you are striving to look at
MI, o1,a -f,1111 ~ n of TO
cares and anxieties. 1t is a woman's
privilege to tighten the shadows and be
all that is gracious and bright on the or
namental side of life. It is a good plan
to let much learning sit as lightly as
possible and to get into the habit of
making little troubles pass like little
ripples in a sunny river

HfsI,oyc fDrPiIIoYs,

II there is one thing above another that
the college man holds dear, it is lib.
aral supply of pillows, and, as they are
made and bestowed by feminine friends,
the quantity argues well for his popu-.
larity, and he halls everything In the
pillow line with as much delight as the
debutante does her flowers and faVors,
for there is nothing as pleasing to the
vanity of man as to be considered IN
tensely popular, and, should he be biess7
ed with a sister or two, they will grasp
the situation instantly, and call to their
aid a few girl friends. One or two sew
ing bees will turn out enough pillows TO
make some other fellows green with
envy. and the recipient wild with delight.
and full of "reminiscences of this or that
charming or beautiful girl, who has been
so thoughtful as to send him a pillow.
There is a new idea in this line. that
might be of use to any one who mas a
talent for pen-and-ink work, and wishes
to surprise brother or friend by add
ing to their store. Take any Of the
Gibson pictures you may choose, and re-
produce it on a>square of ecru linen the
size of the pillow; another square forms
the back. A cord of a combination OF
colors that blend well with the square Is
put around the edge. and you viii De.
more than pleased with the result, and
whoever gets it will think you are aW-
fully clever, which you are, for they are
not the easiest thing in the world 10

The Acme OF Economy,

Some people are born economical some

economy thrust upon them. AS an in

confidential dialogue overheard on the
South Side elevated a few mornings since
One lady was middle aged and rotund,
with TWO distinct chins, and the hint of q
third; the other was young, slender,
blacl-eyed person evidently on the verge
Of natrimony, for they were deep in the
discussion of wedding cakes, dresses,

Yes. have decided to have swell we'd
ding! 1t really doesn't cost much more.
for the flowers, the dresses and the cake
have to be provided, anyhow, and one
might just as well have big crowd as a
few people. And think how many more
presents shall get!
Sighed the rotund one, in spell of re-
min;scense: ooh. yes, but it only means
the giving of them back again. in way
because as the guests get married them
selves later on you will have to put your
hands In your pockets and seId them just
as handsome presents as they gave you."

Rainy Day Skirt Cost a Girl $40 and
Now She Wants to Sell it.
'Tt's not much of a story" said the
Bright Girl hesitatingly. II had that
rainy-day skirt for fully month before
I could make up my mind to wear it;
then there came a day when 1t didn't
rain; it simply poured cats and dogs and
ritcbforks and things. It vas necessary
that I should go down town, so I got
out my skirt ard looked it over, and
finally after I had also looked over my
trained ones and pronounced them unfit
for any sensible person to wear in that
deluse I put it on reluctantly.
TT was the prescribed length, but it
seemed fearfully short to me and I felt
so abnormally self-conscious that I de-,
cided couldn't just get in a car and
have everybody gazing; that's why l
walked. I had u Or Is blocks to go and
it seemed to me that that skirt was
shorter each time looked at my ref!ec-

course, every time there was window.
