The Eternal Feminine.

For woman to touch up her toilet at
public restaurant, to produce a mirror
from her pocket and a powder puff. and
then to apply a wee bit of poudre de riz
to the tip of her nose and to lightly dust
her cheeks, would be an astonishing per-
Torrance III America, but a common
sight in Partisan restaurant
Nowhere in the world do women claim
and enjoy more real liberty than in
America, but European women are less
siavish to conyentionality and do some
rather daring things in public.
Young girls had better blush unseen.

gain all the fame Imaginable as bright
takers and great beauties without any
''homely" talent.
HOmely means belonging to the home
As home is the place where love and
charity should abide. so the talents that
belong TO it are best worth possessing.
There is an adage which tells us to call
no man old until he has lost his teeth
and no woman old until she has lost her
hair.
When man talks to woman. he may
chide her. but when he talks to man he
may cherish her.
When Il girl seems to have nothing Mt

No woman can be beautiful unless She
eats well and sleeps well and has man
or child to love. This is the heart of
the question.

Silence and Patience.

Re still: the crown of life is siientness.
Give thou a quiet hour To each long day.
TOO much of time we spend in prOitless
And foolish talk-t0O little do we say.
IF thon wouldst gather words that shall
avail
Learning a wisdom worthy to express.
Leave for awhile thy chat and empty tale
study the golden speech Of silentness
Plant patience in the garden of thy soul,
The roots are bitter, hut the fruits are
sweet.
And when at last, it stands n tree COM
plctc,
Beneath It's tender shade the burning heal
And burden of the day shall lose control
Plant patience in the garden of thy soul.

at each junction of boards there are
little circular indentations, where,
after the bar has been screwed in,
sealing wax is placed and stamped
with the government seal. 1t might
be stated that there never has been
robbery or an attempt at robbery
at the assay Office and no bullion ever
has been lost in transit.
No bullion Is received at the Office
that is less than 500 fine, and no de.
posts OF less than 500 are received.

KEEP AN EVEN TEMPERATE
some Rooms Are Kept Much Z
Warm While others Are Not
Warm Enough.

Much of the discomfort experieus
in our winter home life is due to
extremes of temperature found
various parts of the house. s. N
rooms are kept much too wa D
doors might often be left open

as to equalize matters. 1t is ptf'
economy to shock our bodies by pa 4.
ing from rs degrees in the sittinga
room to 60 degrees or less in the pas
sage and dining-room or bathroom,
says the Popular Health Magazine.
The floors of many dwellings are
never comfortable, and special foot
wear is desirable to be used on aris-
ing Wooden slippers or overshoes,
galoshes, etc, may be worn for this
purpose, and will keep the animal

member the first impressions are
very lasting, and our bodies ars
grateful for little protection and
encouragement offered in the morn

awakening for their task. "A little at
tention of this kind often determines
the atmosphere of the whole day. q
In all weathers the sleeping-room,

than the living room, and more fresh
air should be allowed to enter. In
the very bitterest weather there are
often enough cracks in the windows
to allow of fairly good ventilation,
even though the window be closed

and weather strips are used that al

made. This applies only to the very

ever and ever so much of us, and

Because Prince Henry is coming
over here to present our leading citi-

rette cases and sleeve buttons and
other valuable souvenirs"
Listen, o white man." said the In
dian, earnestly; 'listen to the voice

GERMANY'S NATIONAL AIR.
II II Not "Die Wacht am Rhein," ~
Ii Supposed by n Great Many
People.

II is remarkable how very few peo-
pie in this country, even musicians,
know the national song of Germany.
There is a popular impression that
IL is die Yacht am Rhein." Such Is
not the case, however, as was learned
lately by Prof. Macleod, leader of
the band of the District national
guard, who applied to the German
embassy for information on that
point, states the Washington Star.
He thought il was the watch on the
Rhine" but wasn't sure. The ma
tional guard band took part in the
ceremonies attending the welcone to
Prince Henry, and it was intended
that his royal highness should hear
the national song of the fatherland
on that occasion.
In response TO his inquiry the band
leader was informed by representa-
tive of the German ambassador that
the national song of the German en-
pire is Hell dir i'm Siegerkranz," the
music of which is precisely the same
as that of God Save the Queen"
the national song of Great Britain,
and America" or "My Country, IT'S
of Thee" one of the patriotic songs
of the United States.
The same information is contained
in National and Patriotic Airs of
All Nations" volume compiled by
John Philip Sousa when bandmaster
of the United States Marine band,
which compilation is accepted as the
official guide of the navy department,
and is followed in all naval functions.
In addition to the cases already men
toned, it further appears from Prof.
Sousa's compilation that the we'll
known music of God Save the
Queen" is also the national air of
Switzerland under the name "Rufst
du mein Vaterland" and the national
song of Bavaria under the title Hell
unserm KONG, He'll"
Prof. Sousa denominates THE Star
Spangled Banner" Hail Columbia"
and MY Country, IT'S of Thee" as
patriotic songs of the United States,
and does not attempt to name the ma
tional song of this country. He
shows, however, that the practice in
the navy is to play THE Star
Spangled Banner" at morning colors
and Hail Columbia" at evening coll
ors on all ships in commission and at
naval stations where there are cerv-
ice hands
