YOUR letter is very bright and anus

advantage in dressing the hair soft and
full about the face.
Have your tailor take pains to give
you a broad back, extreme width to
the shoulders and long waist Avoid
severe clothes. Wear soft things made
in the lovely tucked or box pleated
models which are always good stvle
They add fifteen pounds TO ones ap-

you grasp what 1 mean you can make
yourself svelte, chic and spirituelle-a
type which is quite as much admired

waits until I come home. I very often
visit her at her house. but as never
mentioned my love Tor her. she took
an engagement ring from an old aC-
quaintance of the family, but she does
not know whether to marry him or not,
as she has heard a lot about HIM. Sew
eral days ago she was III the city and
told one of my folks that she loved
me better every day. Now. as I love
this young lady. I would like to make
her my wife I am quite sure she
would accept me. therefore I wish some
of your advice. Should 1 tell her of my
love for her. and ask her to give up the

Perhaps you haven't heard of Benny
and the bear, but you have surely rot
missed the Servant Girls union. which
is shaking the domestic world rom
center to OutmOst rim.
Benny was goOd-natured man. He
was. as everybody said. that good in
his heart that he wouldn't hurt a fly"
Benny lived in little hut in a lear
ing of the great forest. Every morn
ing he shOuldered his ak and walked
away into the woods, returning at hight
after having felled his quota of big
trees. Sometimes his pet bear Horace
went and came with Benny and some
times Horace stayed at home and
amused the children.
The most prominent traits of Benny.
good nature and a keen appetite for
supper. appeared in Horace, as if the
pet had learned from his master. And

so when Horace poked his nose into the
sugar barrel or ran away with a ham
from the smOkehouse Benny would only
say: 1T WON'T pay to vt mad at a
little thing like that"
Benny had a wife and two children,
Leander and SOphronia.
One day Benny coming home was met
in the edge of the woods by Leander
"Oh, pa" said Deander, Horace has
eaten Sophronia."
Wen, now ] am mad" said Benny.
But he was that good in his heart he
only sent Horace to bed early as pun
ishment for his greedy habits.
a few days after that when Benny
came home his wife said.
"Oh. Benjyi Horace has eaten Lean
der!"
We'll, now AM madi" said Benny.
But he was that good in his heart
he only made Horace sleep out in the
wOodshed on the floor that night as
punishment for his greediness.
On the next Saturday evening when
Benny came home he was met by
group of neighbors.
"Oh, Benjyl" they said, Horace has
eaten your wife,
