Broche figures along with warp
printed ones give enchanting effects.
Collarless Eton jackets are among

material the wearer may fancy.
Little covered engagement books,
with diminutive pencils fitted in the
sides, are worn by the fashionable
girl. The books are suspended from
chatelaine chains and hooks.
The "homespun" sash is of coarsely
twilled silk, loosely woven, and comes
in many combinations of colors.
Crepon sashes of light gray have a
floral design worked in black. and
others of satin have fanciful designs
brought out in chenille.
Silk lingerie is quite out of date.

CHEERFULNESS IN THE HOME.
Helps to Overcome the Discomforts
of Life aud Brings Ease
and Happiness.

If a man should be cheerful at
home, it goes without saying shat a
woman should be. Whatever her
cares and anXieties, the mother must
make il part of her religion to live
above them. What is most priced in
household economy is not tempera-
ment which is gay by fits and starts,
up to-day and down tomorrow, full
of hilarity on occasions, and heavy as
lead at other times, but an even Sc
renity of soul which makes people at
ease and happy under the roof. A
home in which one treads always on
thin ice cannot be tolerable. A cheer
full disposition will influence it's pos

circumstances, forgets the discom-
forts of yesterday, and anticipate de-
lightful things tomorrow. 70 live

Much of the lack Of cheer which

low vitality brings, in its wake. an

the lost sense of happy cheer, and

FEAR THE FEAR OF DEATH.
An Interesting showing of the
Chances Of Life from the Inyes-
tIgntIons of scIentists

We should be afraid Of the fear of
death-not of death itself. IL We fol-
low this rule there il no reason why
We should not all become centensrians
so we are told in the Revue d'Econo-
mic Politique by VI. Jean Finot, says
the Literary Digest. The author
begins an article on the limita-
tions Of life by mentioning some
traditional long lives. Among these
cases are those of resident of
Goa, who il said TO have reached his
400th year in the enjoyment Of all his
intellectual faculties; a Scotchman
who lives TO be over 200 years old, and
various monks Of Mont Athos who
have reached $50 years. lie asserts
that Seryian statistics for 1897 show 3
persons between 1875 and 40 years old,
rs from 1875 90 1875, 1913 from rs TO 1925,
and 200 from l05 TO IFS. In 1890 there
were, he says, in the United States,
1881 persons over 100 years old, and 2l
in London. NJ. Finot cites a mathe-
matical formula, which he credits 10
DR.. Richardson, by which any one may
get an idea Of his probable length of
life. IL is only necessary 10 add the
ages Of one. father and mother 10
those Of ones two grandfathers and
two grandmothers. and the total di-
vided by six indicates the exact number
Of years one should live. NJ Finot does
not believe that the average length Of
human life has been reduced. On the
contrary. he believes that IL is con
stantly increasing. owing 10 the prog
ress Of hygiene. Why do we grow old
at alp The writer answers:
For three reasons; O) Want Of
physical exercise in the open air; (2)
poisoning by microbes, which the
phagocNtes have not succeeded in de-
stroying; ca fear Of death 1t is hard
90 imagine the importance Of this last
element. II a man fears death it will
carry him away. And yet it il quite
pleasant 10 die; no sensation could be
compared to it,"
To prove this assertion VI. Finot
quotes Helm. who related the sensa-
tions he experienced while falling with
his companions from the summit Of
one 81 the Alps 20 death which he
tremendously escaped;
AT first a sense Of beattitude, then
complete insensibility to touch and
pain; finally an extreme rapidity Of
thought and 81 ina gina ton. which in
a few seconds enabled him TO recollect
the events Of his whole life Therefore.
II is not death we should fear. but the
fear II inspires in us. We are wrong.
says Socrates, 10 fear death. as il is
our great possession on earth, and
Seneca adds that il is the best Of the in
ventions of life, while Montesquieu
concludes that we should shed tears
for men when they are born and not
when they die"
NJ Henry de Varigny examines the
question of longevity in ILLUSTRATION
