Homeiy Vegetables Made savory.

This is a season of scarcity in vegeta-
bleS except where one has recourse to
large city markets where one can obtain
fresh green vegetables almost all the en-
tire year round if disposed to pay prices
demanded and risk safety until you are
ready to exclaim: ''oh. for new vegeta
ble-''
One is apt to underrate the so-called
homely vegetables of the cheaper. eoarser
sort, unless we except the white potato,
that in spite of its plebeian appearance
and humble origin is prime favorite in
cabin and hall. By some strange mental
process We discriminate between mani
mate as well as animate nature without
apparent and just cause and in this way
rank some vegetables above others not
on account of their superior value or
qualities, nor perhaps their finer appear

often because of an unjust prejudice

Americas Fashionable Society.

A Connecticut clergyman, the Rev.
DIR. Charles Wilbur de Lyon Nichols,
has devoted himself to the study Of
fashionable society in America, and has
reached the conclusion that there are
not more than 400 names in that circle.
In making his list he excludes many of
the old families because they lack the
money to achieve prominence at New
port. He affirms that birth is hot es-
sential and birth alone not sufficient for
those who aspire to figure in society.
Some of the Oldest, best known and most
exclusive families of Philadelphia, whose
members consider themselves the social
superiors even of Mrs. Astor, have no
place in the new list, says the New
York Times. THE dollar is the vehicle
and Newport and goal; money is the
medium and admittance to the Newport
set the supreme test" he says. THE
dollars the thing. Our social future is
based on an arfstocracy of wealth"
Wealth alone, however, Will not serve
until the possessor shall receive the
Newport certificate. Even the Rookie
fellers are only probationers-''th are
just beginning to be fashionable" Geo.
Gould and his wife are in, but the

Lyon Nichols was an appreciative social

and is himself received a Newport, he
may be presumed to speak with some
authority. Anyhow, it is a fact that
wealth and the Newport mark are to-
sether sufficient to place one in what
is conceded to be fashionable society.
Anybody who is ambitious to enter the
Newport aristocracy of wealth may do
So It is simply a matter of accumulat-
ing sufficient fortune, of achieving
agreeable manners and being ready to

Cultivate a Beautiful Expression.

A famous painter was once asked
what type of feminine beauty he most
admired:
"A beautiful expression" he said. "is
the loveliest and most lasting charm
woman can possess. The features of
a pretty face may change, youthful
contour be lost in the lines of matpr-
ity; delicacy of coloring will fade but

In France even the clergy took to
patches, and every lady OF fashion car
ried a little gold or silver box in her
pocket containing a mirror, some rouge
and des mouches, as patches were call
ed. These were of every shape-square,
oval, half-moon, star. and even in the
form of an animal, bird or fish A cele-

have worn a patch representing a coach

Away Dull Care.
Systemized activity is one of the best
preserVatiVes against dull care" Oc-
casional leisure helps to make ones
work more acceptable. but too much
leisure pals upon one very shortly,
says the Colorado Springs Gazette.
People of leisure. as they are styled,
represent the most restless. f1dgety and
unhappy class in the community and
the kindest thing which can be done for
them is to deprive them of their leis-
ure.
Many a purposeless man finds life
perpetual burden until aroused to ac-
tivity by some sudden emergency which
brings out the mettle within him.
Leisure is never SO sweet when it
comes unexpectedly. The same is true
of pleasure unanucipated. Like the visit
of a long-absent friend, with us, per-
haps, for a few short hours and then
away again for an indefinite period of
