for example.
THE tie Of the genius has afforded much
copy for the pen OF the satirist and the
pencil Of the caricaturist, but in reality any
little popularity or idiosyncrasy in dress
ing is generally the outward and visible
sign Of vanity, rather than Of personal IN
tidiness. The average man, with an ordi-
nary share Of intellect, seldom knows how
to tie a tie as it can be tied, and is tied, by
men with no Intellect at all He may

shifted its position or become obliquely set.

THE EVOLUTION OF BUDS.
Some Questions that Are Deemed
Worthy of Serious Attention.

Some Questions that Are Deemed
Worthy of Serious Attention.
One Of the unfailing signs Of prosperity
that are seldom mentioned by commercial
optimists, says the Chicago Tribune, is the
large number Of social buds that have
made their appearance this season. Where
there was one bud in past seasons there
are a dozen row.. and formal "comings-
out" are commonplace OF social life. And
not only the number. but the character OF
the debutantes has changed. The laws OF
evolution prevail with them and II may
truly be said that "only the httest survive"
The proportion OF business success to the
failures has been ascertained, but few have
thought IL worth while to learn how many
buds are destined to realize the hopes that
they raise. Prettiness often goes a-begging
and learning is counted a social superhuity.
Mrs. Edith Wharton, in James Mission" a
story in the Christmas number OF Harper's
Magazine, describes a budding failure. Jane
was both pretty and clever. "She had a
creditable collection OF features, but one
had to ak an inventory of them to find
out that she was good-looking. The fusing
grace had been omitted" And the blight
ing edi1cation OF James discourse" worked
her social ruin. Whether the young men
tected~the encyclopedia in her eye" or
because they found no interest in her face
at the end Of her hrst season Jane had
dropped hopelessly out Of the running"
What is the secret OF the success Of the

panions for their children when they we're
grown.
Nothing can be more convincing than her
reasoning, says the Saturday Evening Post,
and there Is but one objection to her plan
that It doesn't work.
II Is a most dlsheaTtening fact that none
Of our plans, however scientific OF reason
able, which run counter to nature, ever
does work. About twenty years ago, for
instance, some ~philanthropic folk in Eng
land founded model homes for the female
children Of poor, depraved parents. The
girls we're reared, so to speak, In bulk.
They dressed alike, they ate the same food
at the same moment, they walked, slept,
rose, studied. played and prayed in mass
at the tap OF a bell. Especial care was
taken, for fear OF favoritism, that there
should be no personal intercourse between
them and their teachers out OF school,.
The habits, knowledge and religion taught
to them we're warranted to be OF the best.
But when these girls, being grown, were
sent into homes as nurses Of children they
invariably were sent back as Incompetent
and cruel. The human element in them
was withered and dead for want OF the
family life. The e-xperimenters openly &C
knowledged that the training in nnseIhsh-
ness and in affection was better under even
a careless mother and father than under
no father and mother at all.
A few years ago DIT. Louis Starr, the
eminent American specialist for children,
discovered a new disease among them.
baby patients grew blOodless and weak and
died with no apparent silment. They we're
invariably the children OF wealthy mothers
who had refused to nurse them, but fed
them on some food which science declared
perfect. Science was again mistaken and
nature avenged the slight put upon her.
