The Kind Of Presents that Men Give.
A TEATABLE TALK.

At an afternoon tea on a shady plaza the
conversation turned to the ever-dlverting
Great Masculine, as 1t sometimes will when
two or three feininines are gathered to-
gether.
I "a girl usually divides the men who are
attentive to her into two classes-the 'stin-
gies' and TO the givies, " said popular
/ young woman, as she dropped another lump
into her tall glass Of tea.
Some of us looked bewildered, and she went
on to explain.
.'You see, there are some men who appear
to be very devoted slaves. They will come
to tea wlth'y you as often as you invite Them
, and swear that the divan In your den is the
happiest corner of the earth to them
{ "They will dance with you at cotiilon,
but they will never take you to one, because
that means flowers and a carriage In other
words, they are perfectly delighted with

anything These are the 'sting,es,' and their
name is legion. ,-s. 4ts
''On the other hand, as blessed offset, are
the gvies,' and they are just the incest men
, In the world.
"You are almost afraid to mention new
book in the presence of a 'givey,' for the
next morning 1t will be lying on the hall
table when you come down to breakfast. He
always waits to see If you have an engage
ment for the play before he makes his own.

box, and guess whatI have for you.'

off harm. For the same reason the, Irish
mother places strand OF woman's hair in
the cradle, and the Dutch matron is very
careful to see that garlic, salt, bread and
steak are In the cot OF her newborn child.
Some English women bind the little mite in
cloth, that In later days its owner may
gather riches.
In France, Germany, England, and, indeed,
this country, too, 1t is thought extremely
unlucky to carry babe down stairs before
1t has journeyed upward. So, lf the babe Is
born on an upper floor, the nurse or mother
must hold her precious charge high In air,
herself standing on chair or table. In this
wal Ill luck Is averted, and with safety can
the child be taken down stairs.
A babe and a kitten cannot thrive In the
same house. One will pine away, so 1t is
better to send pussy out.

christened Is liable to bad luck all Its life,

same method of packing 1850 gowns proved
so thoroughly satisfactory.
The answer to the question lies In the diff
ference of the dates. Since the invention Of
the little hat trunk packing has become al
most thing of pleasure for women, for the
old-time problem Where shall / put my
hats?" has been at last solved.
The most convenient trunk, If one possesses
also hat box, is a moderate sized box with
three trays. Lot us lay aside for the mo-
ment, then our hats, ribbons, wells. gloves
and stocks (for the hat box has a little tray
which holds all these accessories) and begin
with the larger and more important trunk.
dozen or two sheets OF white tissue paper
and half dozen newspapers are important
items to have close at hand. Let us begin
with the heavy weights. You will perhaps
need golf cape. Fold ii the width of the
trunk and let 1t lie at the very bottom.
Next the heavy short skirt and coat. This
will not be apt to crush, but be sure to stuff
the sleeves of your coat with tissue paper
and put a little roll OF 1t in the top of your
skirt where you fold 1t over.

after days. 1t is Il good sign If the babe

early infancy and bad omen II ii learns to
crawl backward first The babe that bears
a little blue vein between the eyes will be
hard to raise.
The Vosgcs peasants say that the child
born at new moon Is supposed to have Il
well hung tongue, and one that sees first
the last quarter will have keen reason.
