Hints on Card Etiquette.

Leave cards after an entertainment
you have received an invitation to,
whether you accept the invitation or
not. The cards should be left within
ten days. If you know the person
who has invited you but slightly the
cards should be left with as little de-
lay as possible-say two days. You
leave two Of your husbands cards
Zone for the host and one for the
hostess), and only one Of your own,
as a woman does not leave a card for
the host. OF course, you leave your
husbands cards whether the hostess
is at home or no, but it is unnecessary
to leave your own card if you see her
personally.
If you are not well acquainted with
the giver of the entertainment 1t is
unnecessary for you to ask to see her
when you call. You may merely leave
cards, handing them to the person who
opens the door and say for MRS.
Blank" If she then wishes to con-
tinue the acquaintance she will call
on you, but if she does not you can
take no further steps. If you see the
hostess you place your husbands
cards on the table in the hall as you
leave. 1t is incorrect to leave cards
in the reception-rOom (unless you have
noticed when entering that there was
no table or card receptacle in the hall
to receive them) or to hand them to
the lady herself When entering it is
correct to give the name, not the
card, to the maid who opens the door
In paying first calls do not spend more
than ten or fifteen minutes. The cal

Why So Many Women Are Invnlids.
The insane desire of fond parents
that their children shall "shine" in
their studies and accomplishments is
one topic vigorously dealt with by Ed
ward Box in his editorial in the La

girls side of this widespread evil he
says: There are parents, who, not
content with the studies which their
daughters have to grapple with at
school, load them down with a few
special studies in the finer arts. l
have in mind now several young girls
between the precarious ages of twelve
and seventeen, who, after they return
from school, have an extra dose of
painting, music or languages. But
my daughter must know something of
these things is the protest of the fond
mother She must be able to hold her
own with other girls of her set OF
course, the girl at this tender age,
with such mental load, soon goes to
pieces. She becomes anaemic, nstless
and nervous, and then the mother
wonders why! To build her up every
thing under the sun is tried except a
lessening of mental work and the I'M
natural strain upon the nervous sys-
tenn. The girl develops into what? A
bundle Of nerves encased in the most
fragile frame, her physical vitality
Slapped almost to the last dreg. And
in this condition she enters the mar
riage state! And yet we wonder why
there are so few women absolutely
free from organic troubles. Is 1t SC

Trouble Made for Him In Paris BY His

Ernesto Tamagno, like many other

case of an artist who has always re-

That his spirit for bargaining il not

that has put the tenor into an embar.

DEEDS RATHER THAN DREAMS.

Decline Of Imagination and Its Most
Noticeable Results.
It will be difficult to impress the com.

loser by the decline Of Imagination
President Thwing Of Western Reserve
University professed to regret this
passing emotion in an address he made
recently in the West, but 1t was NO
doubt largely a regret Of the perfume

pected from a man of letters. II we
have in this practical age lost the
pleasures of imagination. we have
through the immutable law Of compen

There may be no modern mind capable
of producing another "Faery Queen
but there are countless minds working
for humanity's betterment and weav'
ing in place of the web Of fancy the
staunch though homely texture of en-

The decline Of so-called imagination
began with the decline of chivalry. II
went out with the false ideas Of honor
with the vauntings Of bedizened men,
with the bitter class distinctions, with
the contempt for the profession Of let

Imagination is a sweet and gracious
quality. but it's decline leaves no void

the number of distinguished people
