MORE BEAUTY DON'TS.
If You Want Trim Feet Here Are tho
Rules

Written for The Evening Star.
Don't neglect the care Of the feet. There
is an intimate connection between feet and
complexion. It is only v0an the former ara
in good condition that a woman looks her
best
Don't fail to put on fresA pair Of stock
ings daily. A single nights exposure to the
air is insufficient to free stockings OF mois-
ture.
Don't wear wooden stockings Cotton
ones are always preferable. except for per-
sons who suffer from perspiration.
Don't wear tight, stiff or nl-f1tting shoes
or boots. They are the common cause OF
corns. causing pressure or friction on the
projections of the bones.
Don't wear rubber overshoes in the house,
Remove them at once. They interfere with
the proper ventilation Of the feet, as they
are alright. II worn too much they cause
tender feet, dizziness and headache.
Don't spend so much time learning the
art of manicuring that there is no oppor.
tunity to practice pedicurins. Take few
lessons from an expert chiropodfst.
Don't attempt to treat a corn without hrse
bathing the feet in warm water.
Don't use the cMsel when bit OF pumics
stone will answer the purpose.
Don't cut the nails round. Make them
square. II rounded like fingernails there u
danger of their growing in, and nothing II
more painful than an ingrowing nail;
Don't go to bed with cold or damp feet IL
you wish to preserve your health. From Q
hygenic point of view q wet back should Be
less hunned than wet or cold feet.
Don't stand for any length of time on
snow or ice or the cold ground. Many dis.
eases may be traced to cold suddenly APP
piled to the feet
Don't think that q foot Is beautiful be-
cause 1t is small. II must be in proportion
to the stature-the instep moderately high.
, the toes regular. the heel non-protruding
and the general outline graceful

Woman With Humor.
From Harper's Bszar.

HARPER D Dpxhkss,
II you consider the list OF your friends, 1t
viii not take YOU long to discover that the
woman you like best Is the woman with a
sense OF humor. She is the one you think Of
first IL you are getting up a picnic or a
card party. You do not. perhaps, formulate
1t even to yourself. but in your mind she
stands for the utmost good humor. II II
rains. or 1t shines. II anybody else Is cross
and grumpy. the woman with sense Of
humor can extract fun out Of the dreariest
proposition. and the first thing you know
she has set everybody to laughing at her
droll sayings. and turned defeat into trf-
unph, for who cares whether your original
plan was carried out or not, Just 80 every
body has good timer
A sense Of hum0r is said to be lacking
In most women. Alasl have found this
only too true. but have noticed that when
q woman does have 1t the men are the first
to find 1t out, and all she has to do to ac-
Quire husband is to pick and choose. The
day of the girl. with the doll face is going
out and the day Of the girl with sense Of
humer Is coming In.

Chine Effects.
Among the most delightful features OF
the summer stuffs are the chine effects In
troduced into everything and the pretty
punches of misty flowers and muiticolored
tones so suggestive Of the days OF Wat
teau. The new canvas displays fancy strip
pings like drawn thread work. with
threading of green silk here and there.
Many Of the grass lawns have not only
these lacelike stripes, but borders, ana
some of the other materials come with piaio
borders. both wide and narrow. In June
we will see plenty of these grass lawns
with silk stripes and embroidery pet"een'
and when made up over silk these are las
cinating and chic costumes.
Delaines will have things all their own
way this summer. They are astonishingly
pretty in plain colors, tiny spots ana nat
ural colored floral effects. The waving
floral designs interspersed with spots ano
lacelike effects mingling with roses ana
bows and conventional flowers in black
and white on colors are admirably suited
for this most useful stuff.
A new idea is white ground with bou-
quets of flowers on what appears to be
shaded effect of color. The design is light
and charmingly suggestive of summer.
There Is a. lawn called louise crystal. which
is recommended for dressy waists, as II
admits of all sorts OF furbeloWS ana iusS-
ings.
At the Vaudeville .Theater the other night
1 saw the happiest inspirations of the mo-
ment revealed by Rejane. She wears IN
one act beautiful creation Of white tulle,
which has bolero of passementerie edged
with little balls. The skirt Is relieved by
insertions of lace, and happy note Is
given in the green ribbon which is run
through the sleeves and finished with
black chou.
That Paris Touch.
Who but a Parisienne would think OF
ending a green ribbon threading with
black chou?
In looking through the shops one sees
such charming things in the way OF stocks
and colarsl But, dear me, they are very
expensive and perishable, though so fetch
ing and becoming.
Your American stock, with its hard mus
lin collar, is to choke us again this sum-
mer. It is smart, l admit, and the only
neckwear possible for the morning frock.
The soft. fluffy chiffons are alluring, ana
| the lace jabot made of real lace is truly
distinguished and the only proper finish
for "a dreSsy costume. There Is nothing
more out of place with an important frock
or an accordion plated blouse, for IN
stance, than the collar of muslin and an
uncompromising bow Of black glace RIB
bon. Lovely Northumberland muslin col
lars are now worn more of f1chu shape
with a gathered muslin chemisette. The
| woman with time on her hands can buy
good patterns and copy them at home.
Very long scarfs of chiffon, lace and
| fancy silks are being tied in enormous
bows and worn with any dark costume.
Cape collars are to be very much In
| evidence and will take the place of the
| stoles, which on many women were not
| becoming, with their unsoftened lines at
| the neck. The spring capes are most ef-

THE SECRET Is OUT.
A Bachelor Girl Tells Why She Does
Not Marry.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
why do not marry" said the bachelor
girl "Because-Oh. because haven't been
asked" was the unexpected reply, and all
the fine theories Of deliberate cruelty to
the future race were dashed to the ground
IT'S mistake" she went on, ITO suppose
that we unmarried women sit down and
calmly consider the pros and cons OF mat
rimonfal relations; that we deliberately
discuss and decide what attitude we will
take In regard to the appalling problem of
the future OF the human race. 1t sounds
wise and all that to hear that we bachelor
girls have solved the perplexing problem of
the age, but we can't even take credit to
ourselves for that. Force Of circumstances
Is responsible for the number of our kind
in existence.
Its my opinion that no girl is too busy
to think Of men. The society girl who Is
bent on having a good time wants to pro-
long her period Of enjoyment just as long
as she can before she deliberately curtails
her freedom by marrying, but she looks
forward to matrimony some day, and the
girl who works-say, a girl of the upper
Glasses who finds she must earn her own
living-if she makes q success Of Il finds
that she has opened up for herself a de-
lightful life OF independence and happiness
but 1t isn't this fact that lies at the bot
tom Of her bachelorhood.
Her work as general thing brings her
in contact with men Of business. usuailv
married men. and from them she gets al,
insight Into matrimony which makes her
skeptical as to Its general desirability. Lit
tie remarks let fall now and then reveal
the truth that all Is not path OF roses,
The result Is that the bachelor maid finds
encouragement on every side, and all
things considered, the scales certainly turn
in the favor OF the unmarried state, or at
least OF procrastination.
''She decides to look we'll before she leaps
ana the process OF investigations begins to
thin the ranks OF the eligibles, while day
by day she grows more difficult to please.
As consequence she Is so taken up with
this inquisition that the final plunge is
long deferred. Sometimes it Is indefinitely
postponed"

Good Breeding

The best bred women do not fuss. They
take their gowns and their furniture ana
their jewels as a matter of course They
are unconscious OF their wells and their
gloves. and they expect every one else to be
equally so. II they see an intimate wearing
a handsome gown, they refer to it admir-
ingly. but they also preface their comment
with an apology Their differences with
their husband are not aired. neither are the
domestic upheavals.
The Iepose of the well bred woman Is not
the quiet of weakness. 1t is the calm OF
trained faculties, balanced so nicely that an
earthquake may cause a change of color,
but will not bring forth a loud cry.
Well bred women are boon to the human
race. They help the world to maintain a

manifold, beautiful and Transforming, Is as
sured by remark made by Dress artist
the other day to a client: Madam, you may
have new bread delivered from baker
each day. but you cannot expect new ideas
each day from your dressmaker."
We all know what authority this great
artist is, and when he makes statement OF
this kind, followed by the explanation that

causes the novelty Of the day to be
simply an adaptation from the characters
of bygone modes" and that the cleverness
which he applies his Styles" the last word
has been said. Nevertheless, We know the
outcome will be grace itself.
While 1 have been talking about the
things which may be you are wondering
why do not describe the things which are
and were seen at Monte Carlo. 1t Is one
thing to see fine feathers and quite another
to picture them adequately so as to conJure
up well-defined vision.

A Summer Vision.
Another vision of summer was a sun ray
pleated crepe de chine In palest blue belted
with silver embroidery the pleated waist
ornamented with collar and cuffs en- suite.
The hat worn with this costume of mauve
tulle and orchids exactly matched the para

beauty unsatisfied.

| as silky canvas. wolfe and silk On many
! of the smartest gowns the fullness fell from
! half way down the skirt. while other dresses
were gathered or plated in very fiat
fashion, indicating the fullness below a
hip empiecement.
The sleeve was quite feature OF the
most stunning gowns, and the one most

REV. GILBERT ADDRESSES CLUB
A Portland Minister Entertains
Astoria Ladies'.

An instructive and highly cultured ad
dress was delivered by Rev. w. s, Gil
bert, of Portland, Yesterday afternoon
before the Woman's Club of this city.
Mr.. Gilbert Is speaker of rare pene-
trating power and ls in demand through
out the state by organizations OF the
kind that seek to elevate the mind,
There was large representation of the
club present vest arday and the ladies
We're kept deeply interested,
Mr.. Gilbert took for his leading
theme "The Ebb and Flow of the Tide"
and looked 1t all the springs and ac-
tions of life frcn, that point of view.
In the beginning he said
Nothing happens; but all things
come to bass by the operation of fixed
laws. All of Gcds laws have always
existed and have never been changed
or broken. We may break the COM
mandments of God, dlsobey or disre-
gard them, but we can not break the
laws Of God. They will break us"
The speaker gave his impression
of the influence tide" has on the
lives of men, and In this portion of his
address read from Longfellow and
quoted Shakespeare with good effect.
In the course of his address Mr.. Gilbert
dwelt upon the Importance of envior-
ments and emphasized how conditions
may eradicate or make more pronounc-
ed hereditary traits.
One feature Of the address, and this
was particularly appreciated by the
ladies' as shown by their warm applause
was an experience OF the speaker that
went to show the good effect Of hu-
name treatment TO animals, on the man
and brute alike.
In fact the entire lecture was inter-
epersed with telling and humo-
rus anecdotes the whole going to make
up charm of effective reasoning that
brought out the chief points of the ad-
dress With peculiar force.
