Returning CiviIitIes.

lmpecunious society woman, ''for poor
people like myself to try to return
civilities. 1t is far better to say frank
Iy you cannot afford to entertain and
take the goods the gods Qn the shape
of your richer friends) provide without
any question of reciprocal exchange
than TO try to make any adequate re-
turn. AS long as you give nothing
nothing is expected, and no one is Of
Tended, but the moment you attempt
the smallest and simplest kind of n
function you get yourself in hot water
because there are so many that you
ought to ask and so few that you are
able to have.
Il shall never forget the winter
when l tried to have a few informal
dinners. 1 offended any number of old
friends and pleased no one, for upon
those who were invited and came my
little twopenny dinners made no inn
preston whatever, while to those
whom l was obliged to leave out they
assumed large proportions entirely out
of keeping with their modest preten-
siOns, so that l found at the end of the
season that l had distinctly injured in
stead of helped my social position. The
dinners themselves were n great effort,
as l was obliged TO attend to every de-
tail myself and Mt an expense that L
could i'll afford, while they were, as L
said, not in the least appreciated by
those who were invited and came, SO
now 1 have learned wisdom by expe-
rience. l always haze a hot cup of tea

drop in. but beyond that do nothing.

To Look Cool.


Here is some advice from ga Woman
Who Knows"
IF you come in after long round of
shopping and receive a sudden sum-
mons to the drawing room to meet
some unexpected guest, do not be dis
mayed at the crimson face which
meets your eye as you stand before
your dressing table mirror. Likewise
do not seek remedy in the bathroom.
Many women think the only way to
cool off is to battle the face lavishly in
cold water. This is n great mistake
and with n thin skin will only intensity
the color.
Dash the water on throat and neck
as freely as you choose. particularly at
the back of the neck, but if the face is
bathed at all let it be done sparingly;
then sponge it with Florida water and
lastly apply a generous coating of rice
powder. You will look CHASTITY, but let
the powder remain while you add the
few necessary touches to your toilet.
Then just rs you are to descend dust
off all superfluous powder lightly. and
you will welcome your guest fresh and
cool not only in appearance, but in
realitV."

baths For Health.

Few people realize the many advan-
tages of the UP TO date city house. with
its full supply of hot and cold running
water, over the average farmhouse to
which pilgrims so in vain TO get cool.
There is nothing for severe WEAKNESS
like the intelligent use of the bathtuO.
Fill it two-thirds full of water as hot
as you can stand. a good way to deter
mine how hot il should be is to put the
elbow down into the water to test 1t.
OF course the fingers or even the hand
forms no test at all.
Pour a teaspoonful of ammonia into
the water. After about eight minutes
soaking in this, spray or sponge the
skin with cold water very quickly and
rub dry with rough towel
If sore or lame from overexertion.
walking or riding or bicycling. follow
the bath with a mild massage of the
muscles with a little vaseline. Then
take n half hour nap. and you will he
all right.
Many persons believe that the daily
morning bath in water as cold as the
hydrant affords If taken regularly is of
the utmost importance in maintaining
a sound and vigorous constitution. 1t
is a mistake to think that it is unsafe
to take a cold bath when the body Is
heated.
In cases of complete heat exhaustion
the treatment now favored is an ice
packing. When you are perspiring free
", you are warm all the way
through" and you are in the very best
shape to step into water as cold as you
can get.
The fear OF "shock" is only n mean
ingless tradition so far as healthy per-
sons are concerned. OF course n victim
of heart disease will do well to keep
out of ice water. and very old and fee
bic folks must be careful.-St. Louis

PeeressesIn the House ofLords.

England is interested in the preten-
sions of certain English women who
are peeresses in their own right and
believe that they can sit in the house
of lords if they choose and help govern
the empire. 1t is centuries since Il
peeress has done it, but there is to be
fancy dress coronation in London
next year. and London gossip says that
certain of these self regulating peer
esses propose to go to it as members of
the house of lords and have their trains
borne by pages, as the peers do. 1t
seems an exceedingly proper purpose
and ought to be applauled, not by wo-
man suffragists alone. but by every
one who likes a noble show fifty orna-
mented.-Harpers Weekly.

Eugene a. n Yachtswoman.

One of the most familiar figures in
European waters in recent yachting
seasons is Eugene, the eX-emprcsS of
France. She is now cruising in the
Mediterranean. Her yacht, the This
tie. was once the property of the late
Duke of Hamilton. To meet the re-
quirements of her majesty the vessel
was considerably enlarged. AS always,
Eugene is attended by a numerous
and stately retinue, for she still enjoys
the traditions of a great court follow
ing. though her personal attire in these
untoward days follows the simplest
lines of the tailors art
One of the best friends of this wom-
an of former majesty is the captain of
the Thistle, who, though an English
man, invariably escorts her from the
yacht TO the train at the end of cruise
and at leave taking bends over and
kisses her hand with Il courtliness
worthy of the days of Louis XIV.
Though Eugene is always treated in
England with the greatest considera-
ton, her life has been sadly imbittered
by the long exile from France. Her
nearest friends declare that her pas
sion for yachting has been the means
of preserving her life through the try
ing vicissitudes that have followed her
through nearly three decades. She still
retains traces of the rich Spanish beau
ty that made her famous in Paris half
a century ago. when an emperor sought
her hand.-Leslie's Weekly.

about $4,000. Mrs. Fiske's case baf-
fles estimate, owing to peculiar cir
cumstances, and how far up toward
the top of the list her name belongs is
hard to say. As she divides with no
manager, it is possible that she stands
fifth in the list or even fourth among
the female stars, with, say, $4,000 to
$4,000. Miss Irwin is thrifty and in
vests shrewdly. Viola Allen was in
only the second season under her first
contract, and Annie Russell, Mary
Mannering and Ethel Barrymore were
still newer as stars, but those four did

Biz Money For Actre..es.

1t is said that the 10 best remunerat-
ell American actresses during the past
season were, in the order named.
Maude Adams, Leslie Carter. Julia
Marlowe, Minnie Maddern Fiske. Olga
Nethersole, Viola Allen. May Irwin,

were made stars of by their managers.
and no outsider knows the terms of the
contracts. but fancy that each actress
is between $4,000 and $4,000 better
off than she was a year ago.
Miss Marlowe controls her own busi-
ness. and all the profits of it accrue to
her alone. so it is possible that she goes
ahead OF either of the others in money
for her own bank account. Miss Meth

Results of Outdoor Exercise.

The prominence given to athletic eX-
ercises In the training of girls is having
a noticeable effect upon the size of
their hands and their feet. Fashiona-
bic glovemakers tell us that young wo-
men are taking larger gloves than they
did formerly. while shoemakers have
the reverse tale TO tell.
Golf, cycling. tennis and other sports
are altering the form of the hand, drag
ging it out of proportion and making it
larger. Gloves which few years ago
would have been rejected as ''roomy."
to quote the expression of a popular
comedian. are now Just the fit" Girls
would like TO continue the dainty little
hand coverings in which they once de-
lighted. but outdoor exercises are fore
ing them to ask for n size more nearly
approaching that of their male COM
panions.
1t seems rather contradictory, how
ever, to hear that the foot is decreas-
ing in size among the fair sex, but the
explanation given by a well known
maker of ladies' boots and shoes is that
exercise {. Uses the foot to lose its fab
biness and become more firm and set.
1t is between the ages of IS and 81 that
this change is chiefly noticed.-Phila-

A Girls Allowance.

Modern life that helps to make
girl self reliant and independent if nee
essary is the life into which all girls
are educated for the most part. To
this end the schoolgirls allowance has
reference. Many mothers see fit TO be-
gin in this way, giving a daughter an
allowance from which to purchase
shoes, gloves and ribbons. These may
be made to cost n good deal of money,
but if care is taken in choosing them
there is no reason why they should be
n girl TO know how to manage her own
spending money. One of the best things
is to have her begin with an allowance
for these same articles. In wearing
ribbons around the throat and waist,
as is now the fashion. of course good
deal of material can be done away
with, especially If a girl is ut all care
less, but if she has to buy her own rib
bons she will soon learn TO be little
more careful and to buy judiciously.
Five dollars a month is n liberal allow
ance for gloves and ribbons, and even
shoes can, with economy. be bought
out of this. although shoes are now eX-
pensive. 1t is not necessary to buy
shoes every month, so some months
there will be left 50 for gloves and rib
Eons alone. Half that sum has been
found possible for a girl to get along
with and look very well, and at the
same time she is learning habits Of

has carried out her vow so faithfully
that last fall she was elected vice
president of the state society at the
annual meeting.
Next year Mrs. Bradley will be at the
head of the suffrage work in the state,
Mrs. Evelyn II. Belden of Sioux City,
the present president, only consenting
to accept the office this year on condi-
ton that some woman be named for
vice president to assist in the work this
year and next to assume the whole
burden.
Suffrage work in Iowa this year
amounts to little beside that of the
coming year because of the fact that
the legislature does not convene until
next winter. The suffragists have
made creditable showing in the gem
eraI assembly during the last two ses-
siOns, and next year n more determined
effort will be made toward securing
favorable legislation.
