ST. Paul school girls have
often complained of the re-
strictions placed upon them in
the social affairs of their school
life, and said all sorts of things about
the principal who made the restric-
lions, but their troubles do not COM
pare with those of the girls-and boys,
toO-who attend the manual training
high school of Brooklyn, N. Y. The
unfeeling principal of this school has
evidently forgotten his boyhood days,
if he ever had any, and has sent forth
a decree that the pupils must not hold
parties that last until midnight any
more. Slumber, says this principal,
must hold his charges in fond embrace
long before this unseemly hour.
1t seems that one of the prettiest
and most popular girls in the class
gave a euchre party one night which
was written up in the school paper,
the Odd Times, and it was mentioned
in the notice that lit lasted until mid
night" That stirred the principal and
he wrote a letter to the editor of the
paper, which was printed in it's next
issue, in which he found all sorts of
fault with the euchre party because
it lasted so late. The idea of boys
and girls staying out of bed until such
an hour Mortified the principal and he
dWelt upon the duty of each pupil to
appear in school refreshed by a full
nights sleep. On this point he wrote:
'All evenings, except Friday and
Saturday should be devoted religious
~ to school work, and so much of
those evenings as necessary should be
given to preparation for Mondays
work. Even birthday parties need not
take place on the exact anniversary,
and those whose birthdays occur on
the school days of the week must hold
the celebrations on Friday or Satur-
day.
Precedents were cited for such post
ponement in the Columbian celebra-
ton and New York 250th anniversary,
neither of which was held on the ex-
act date of the original event.
I'm this connection" DR.. Larkins
added, 81 will rule that hereafter all
meetings and entertainments Of clubs,
societies and fraternities associated
with the school must be held at a time
and place approved in writing by me
and that they must close before IL
o'clock at night"
The girls, or young women rather,
for every one of them is over fifteen
years old, are greatly incensed at the
principals interference with their So
cial doings and little indignation meet
ings are held after school hours. The
boys take a more optimistic view of
the affair and consider it all a joke
and say that of course they will hold
all the parties they wish and stay out
as late as their parents permit.
Several years ago there was a prin-
cipal in one Of the ST. Paul high
schools who tried something of this
sort, but it never got much farther
than to influence the social events
which were held directly in connec-
ton with the school, such as as class
dances, plays, etc., and these always
last until midnight" But they are
nearly always held Friday evening,
and seldom on other nights without
the principals permission. Nothing
very serious came Of it in this city,
however, and often there are parties
that last until midnight" which come
off during the week.

Homo of Cashmere shawIs.

A New Yorker who is now living in
Shadipore, India, in the vale Of CASH
mere, the home of the beautiful Cash
mere shawl, gives a melancholy ac
count of the decline of a great and ia
nous industry. These rare and costly
shawls, which were SO much priced in
the days of our grandmothers and
handed down as heirlooms from moth
er to daughter. are still made in Cash
mere, but their glory has departed,
and the cheap and seductive ani1ine
dye has displaced the soft and beau
tiful colorings in the oldtime vegeta-
bic dyes. ~5
The men who understand their ma
nipulation have gone to more lucrative
fields, or else they lie in humble grave
yards hard by the struggling village
streets, and the wild iris clothes their
resting places with colors far more
delicate than they ever mixed.

The Fall Of the asummer Girls Hair.

young women are wearing their hair
down their backs with afternoon tot

Paris fashion has reached Newport.
There are women who will welcome
the fad, fashion or eccentricit y, which
ever you may term it, with joy. And
there are others who will faint at the
mere suggestion. Yet it is a good old

Another gold bag story is told about
young man whose wealth is not COM
mensurate with his high social posi-
ton. One day he was walking down
an uptown street, when he saw on
the sidewalk gold mesh bag. Quick
as fash he seized it and thrust it
into the pocket Of his frock coat. Just
then a policeman called to him, Say
that belongs to that lady getting into
her carriage" The young man rushed
to the woman's side and asked her if

own beautifier into a hard, uncompro-
missing knot that makes them look like
caricatures of women. Homely women,
like George Eliot and Mrs. Browning,
would have been hideous cartoons
without their curls. 1t will be a reve-
lation to see how many startling beau
ties the smart~set will develop before
the summer season is over, if the new
fad only takes a good hold.
OF course there will be women who
will balk at the idea-women whose
one skeleton is the switch that reposes
on top Of their heads; women who
have chung to the false pompadour
and the false bang with loving not
with loathing." But when they really
come to consider it they should well
come with joy a fashion which may
mean to them the abolition of such
things forever. For the wearing Of
flowing Locks is the greatest hair re-
storer that has ever been known. Wind
and sunlight pierce their way straight
to the unhealthy scalp and tone it up
as quinine tonics never have done.
Scalp disease will disappear and we
will begin to have those heavy suits
of hair that our grandmothers had
There are dozens of society women
today who spend their mornings the
year through at the -hairdresser's try
Ing to keep their straggly locks
healthy. One summer in the sea wind
with the straggly locks flowing to the
breeze, and hairdressers would not be
able to make a living. We quarrel
with men for inducing badness by
wearing heavy top hats, yet we pile
our own hair so closely over the roots
and nerves Of the scalp that unhealthi-
ness is bound to ensue. And that Is
why manufacturers Of hair restorers
have their advertisements in every
ctr IN hrnx r. hnI1
and keep neat little broughams.
AS for the men, they are delighted
at the new art'' coiffure. They will
begin to fall in love with their wives
all over again. Men naturally love the
picturesque and hate the conventional
in a woman. A man remembers the
color and curl Of his sweetheart's hair
long after he has forgotten the color
or her complexion or the shape Of her
hand or foot. When girls begin to wear
their hair down their backs every man
will be able to tell "a hawk from a
hansel." A great many Of us will be
lifted from the ban Of suspicion I'M
der which we now rest because of the
luxuriance of our locks, and some of
us-well, some of us will have to suf-
fer for our sins. But 1t will only be
little while before we shall learn to ar
range curlS down the back with the
same skill with which we twist our
hard knots now. And then we will all
be worthy Of our picture hats and our
trailing dresses. We will be worthy of
the love stories which the novelists
write about us. Romance as well as
health and beauty will get new Jog.
The rose in the hair and scented locks
will be the rage.

Aims From a Gold Rao.

No woman in New York keeps up
with current fads more carefully than
does Mrs. Jackson Gouraud, formerly
Mrs. Amy Croker. The more expen-
sive the fad the more it appeals to
Mrs. Gouraud. When gold mesh bags,
jeweled and incrusted. were in vogue,
$1,000 was represented in the one she
carried. There were pearls on the.
chain and a flash of emeralds at the
clasp. One day Mrs. Gouraud's victo4
ria stopped in front Of a Fifth avenue
shop and a street urchin accosted her.
With eyes on the bag. he held out a
dirty hand for aims. Mrs. Gouraud
opened her bag, and, after rummag-
ing among coins and bills, she pulled

The use Of leather-headed nails for
purely decorative purposes is an artis-

daily finding new and pleasing uses for

few ever think Of using shoe trees, for
in no other way can the style Of a
boot Or shoe be retained during the
whole of it's career. Moreover, a tree
makes boot last much longer. BY
inserting pair of trees when foot
wear is taken, warm and damp, from
the foot, the leather is compelled to
dry in the proper shape, without wrin-
kle or crack. But unless the trees are
used the shoes will curl up at the toes
and dry in creases. Trees are now
made in much more convenient form
than they used to be, and they are also
adjustable, so that one serves the pur-
pose of two or three.
