The woman who can embroider has
the advantage over her sister who is
not handy with the needle. To give
a smart touch to her shirt waists she
can embroider buttons for trimming,
to take the place of hand-painted sets
whose place they have usurped.
A pretty idea for white silk or

embroidered in vlolets or forget-me-
nots. To accomplish this, have a
square Of the waist material stamped.

Old Love Letters.

There is nothing that makes a man

Old love affairs, when, in reality. he
thould be proud Of her popularity,
and consider It compliment to his
own good taste that she should have

Of old letters, faded and suspicious Of
Tears, has created a panic in many
an otherwise happy home.
A man always wants to feel that the
woman of his choice has never loved
and will never love any one but his
own precious self, and that is the rea-
son that he asks about five thousand
and ninety-eight times during a three
weeks courtship: "Dld you never real
~ love any other man?" And IL you
be wise and want him very badly. you
will never make any discriminating ad-
missions.
Never, no never, become confidential
and show husband old love letters.
In the first place, 1t is not exactly
honorable, because when man offers
bis love to n woman he pays her the
highest compliment in his power;
therefore, IL he has really loved her,
and she could not return his love. a
regard for his feelings and n proper
appreciation of the compliments i'm
piled in singing her out for his love.
should make her keep inviolate any
expression of love. If she has merely
trified, II is additional reason for Sc
crecy.
Then, too, a more self-interested mo-
tive should control her and keep the
matter secret.
A husband is rarely favorably in
clined towards a man who has ever
made love to his wife, even though II
may have been before he came on the
scene. He has always a sort of in
jured feeling whenever his name is
mentioned. and while he may not say
very much, yet the fact remains that
he does feel injured. So it is better
for n woman to forget.-New Haven

Don't scoId Children.

The mother who has acquired the
habit Of scolding her children thereby
shows that she is not competent to
train them IN obedience. For scold-
Ing is a sign of weakness. 1t indicates
that the person who has it has not
mastered herself and that she knows
not how to rule others.
= The scolding parent is usually an
unreasonable being, irritable, impul-
sive, quick-tempered, hot-headed. She
judges first and calls for the evidence
afterward. She acts as IL her little
sons and daughters should, even be-
fore she instructs them, distinguish
eight from wrong, and should, even
before they have seen anything of life,
have the knowledge than can come
only from experience.
Her first care in the correction of
this habit is TO control herself. Let
her give no order that she does not
intend to enforce. Let her tell her
children to do thing only once, and
let her resolve not to scold them.-In-

Fresh Air and Exercise.

Before putting on your clothing slip
on loose gown and take few breath
ing exercises. First open a window
and stand near it, being careful to
avoid draught. Draw in ten full,
deep, long breaths, inhaling through
the lips. Place the tips of the fingers
on the chest and note that it rises to
its full capacity of expansion as the
air is being drawn in and sinks inward
as far as possible as the air is being
exhaled. Ten inhalatlons will be suf-
f1cient to put you in good form and
good humor, but twenty will be twice
as beneficial. This will start the blood
pulsating through the body and you
will feel warm glow the moment you
have ceased.
To dress properly for housework It is
not necessary to discard your stays.
Stays. If worn rightly, are not injurl-
GUS, and If not worn properly should
never be worn at all. They should be
loose. BY this do not mean merely
comfortable, but roomy, so that you
can almost turn them completely about
the torso. They should be low in the
bust and should be held down by gar
ters sewed into the base of the front.
In this way they will serve as sup
port for the skirts. The skirts them
selves should be light and neat and
short. The bodice should be grace
fully and comfortably low at the
throat. thus giving the neck an oppor-
tunity to develop. But the most i'm
portant item of your morning toilette
Is the care and arrangement of the
hair. Nothing SO fascinates or disgusts
