GRACE AND CARRIAGE.
weighed in the inInncc Against
Beauty of Face and Form
Always Wins.

A woman may have a face as per-
feet in its classic outlines as that
of Greek goddess, her figure may
be well proportioncd, and yet she
may appear unattractive because she
does not carry herself well. Beauty
OF feature and form weighed in the
balance against grace and carriage
is always found wanting, says Hester
A. Bassett, in Woman's Home Com
panion. My lady's gowns may be
modelled after the most elegant
Worth creations; her chapcaus may
come from the shop of a Partisan
milliner, and yet it may be a source
of annoyance to her that she does
not make as smart an appearance
as the govcrness of her children.
Why? Simply because she does not
stand properly. The minute she
stands lightly poised on her feet,
with knees straight, chest well out,
stomach fiat, shoulders back, and
the body from the waist tilting ever
so slightly forward, she has acquired
n certain smartness of effect that no
amount of beauty nor fine clothes
could give. A woman cannot stand
correctly and look slovenly. And yet
how few women do stand properly!
An awkward posture is the chief
fault in the beauty of American wom-
en- who have passed 80. One must
note with regret the settled figures
and protruding abdomens, for it is
the tendency of the body to fall back
heavily to the heels unless there is
some exercise to offset the action.
The springy step soon becomes a
thing of the past, and walking, in
stead of being rhythmic falling for
ward, becomes ierky up-and-down
movement. The abdomen from that
time begins to protrude unpleasant
ly and grace is lost.

Recently IL. II. Vreeland was making

boys applauded.
The next day spruce-lo looking young
man walked into Mr.. Vreeland's office.
"Please give this card to the presi-

Mr.. Vreeland looked at the card
when it reached him. On the same

BUTTERFLIES FOR PARKS.
These Gnudy Insects to Re Supplied
in London Breathing Spots as
an Attractions.

The parks committee of the London
county council is considering an in
tercsting proposal, namely, the intro
duction of butterflies into The in
closures under its jurisdiction. The
suggestion, which it seems probable
will be carried out. was made by Mr..
c. j. Longman, of Paternoster row.
His plan of action seems quite work
able, and he has wisely chosen three
butterflies to begin with whose re
quirements are not very great, which
are very prolific and which are among
the most handsome of our common
species, says the London Mail.
The insects in question are the "red
admiral" with its velvety black wings,
bordered with black and white; the
peacock with its famous "eyes,"
and the pretty little "tortoiseshelI."
The food plant upon which the cater
pillars live is the same in all eases. be-
ing the singing nettle. Those famil-
lar with the insect life of country
lanes know well the clusters of hairy
black-looking larvae. All that will be
required at first will be plantations
of nettles, inclosed for protection's
sake, upon which host of eggs or
young grubs will be placed. The cater
pillars are of the hairy kind, unpala-
table to many birds, but it would be
wise if precautions were adopted to
prevent the ubiquitous sparrow from
acquiring taste for them. as he has
done for many of the plants cultivated
in the parks.
II may be objected that many of The
butterflies will make use of their wings
and betake themselves to the country.
Possibly Il number will, but it will be
easy in all probability to raise them
in great quantities. When they from
time to time emerge from their chrys-
alides they are bound to fly about the
parks for some time and take advan-
tage of any honey-producing flowers
that they may meet upon their way
out.

USES OF TURF FIBER,
b Material from which Ropes, Rugs
and Other Fabrics Are Now
Manufactured.

The use of turf fiber in the manufac-
ture of various fabrics is the subject
of an interesting report from Frank
w. Mahin, United States consul at
Reichenberg. He says that the early
experiments with turf, some ten years
ago, were unsatisfactory. The fibers
then obtained were not good spinning
material, being hard and brittle and
not easily bleached or colored. Later,
civil engineer named Zschorner, in
Vienna, succeeded in extracting
threads from turf which proved to be
good spinning material. Zschorner
worked by dry process, unaided by
chemicals, and succeeded in produce
ing kind of wool which, though not
adapted to the spinning of fine yarn,
is vet so flexible and elastic that large
fabrics can be made therefrom. lt1s
characterized also by great absorp-
tivity, is poor heat conductor, does
not burn readily, and is moderately
firm, and very cheap.
Zschorner next produced turf wad-
ding. This is used as bandages for
men and animals, in eases of wounds
and the like, and also as a filing for
pillows and bed coverings. Then he
wove turf yarn into ropes and rugs
The remnants which resulted served
for the production of paper and paste
board.
Karl Geige, in Dusseldorf. has gone
still further. He has secured from
| turf fiber a fine spinning material
which has absorptiyity. and which also
may be bleached or coIored. After eX
| tracing the vegetable substance
Geige treats it with acids and alkalies
and then boils the resulting liquid
whereby the cells are disorganiZed ano
useless substances released ant
washed out, so that the turf wool con
| sists of almost pure cellulose.
1t is affirmed that the Geige tur
wool is soft and elastic. with all the
good properties of rival products, anc
| in its spinning capability resembles
sleeps wool. Clothing materials ant
different kinds of yarn are made ou
of this turf product in combination
with cotton or sleeps wool. Tur
cloth it is claimed. absorbs perspira
tion in summer, and is warm in win
| ter: felt hats are made out of the tur
wool. 1t is further stated that Geig'
makes out of turf wool Smyrna ant
other rugs, which are bleached ant
colored. In addition to all this, th
Geige turf wadding, it is maintained

which are therefore kept always dr..
and clean. 1t is further recomme mende
as a substance for laying under yer,

Fruit Custard.

A good way of varying the simple
custard is to put in each cupful be-
fore the custard is poured in a ta-
blespoonful of either strawberry or
raspberry jam; dried or crystallized

the jam. Chocolate custards are
made by adding to the custard mix

Glars Have Been Unknown

Chester has n population OF $4,000 and
has police force OF twenty-eight patrol
men, a chief and a sergeant. The city
has no system of police telegraph, but
there has not been burglary since vii
liam Leary was appointed chief of the
department in January. This is a great
record for the police department of a
town the size OF Chester and Wilmington
can enjoy a share of the rejoicing over
the success Of Chief Leary, because Of the
fact that he was born in Rising Sun
when the first war guns were booming in
1861. His father was killed by an OK
plosion in the DUPONT powder mills in
1864.
Chief Leary was sergeant under Chief
of Police Berry. in Chester. and it was
ne who worked up the Eyre murder ease.
executive ability shown in this case hay
ing led TO his appointment as chief Of the
force. When he took hold Of the depart
ment there was no satisfactory system OF
reporting. but he had not been in charge
long before nc had instituted system OF
telephone calls that answers pretty wei
