The Quest Univer..,.

There never yet was q woman who
set out to be beautiful in some direc-
ton and accomplished 1t without great
struggle. So only the few who have the
obstinacy to pursue purpose to the
end change from ugly ducklings to
comely swans. admit that ignorance
of methods keeps back some of us, but
the majority get no further than vain
longings and complaints. They do not
even do the best thing to succeeding
accept the inevitable with cheerfulness.
There never will be time when one
remedy will cure everybody, one rule
govern the universe. If no two human
beings are created exactly alike how
can we expect to deal with them by a
remedy or rule that ignores charac-
teristics? So the wise person tries one
thing after another, always allowing
sufficient time to each until the proper
thing is secured, and when found 1t Is
never discarded for something less sure.
This rule applies to face creams and
beautifiers of all kinds. 1t applies to
bathing, to exercise, to diet and to rec
reation, not to mention dressing, one
of the most important factors Of life,
according to the feminine code.-Boston
Traveller.

celtic Mclancholy or Joy.

In the Irish dirges and laments there
is great similarity to the music of the
west highlands, only the Irish music,
having been written in most instances
for the harp. which, has all the notes of
the voice, is a music of full and sweet
harmonies and has not the omissions
and deficiencies Of the pentatonic scale
in which all music for the pipes was
written. While the melancholy of the
Celtic people finds adequate expression
in these laments primitive. wailing
airs, something between recitatiye and.
melody another and not less charac-
teristic side of the Irish temperament
is very truthfully illustrated in their;
songs of humor. About these there Is an
iniinItable raciness, a fresh and spar.
Killing wit, a spontaneous ring Of char
and fun. with a dash of chivalrous sem
tfmcnt and m airy iightness which,
gives to them the unmistakable Hiber.
Man accent and to which there is no
exact counterpart in the songs of Eng
land or Scotland. = London Saturday

A very large caterpillar stretched It.

dilatable at the will of the insect and
had on each side a large black pupil

Men Love the Neat woman.

There is an attraction in neatness
and order all their own. Their lack is
felt even when there is great beauty
to dazzle the eye. know that there
are men who tolerate slack, untidy
women, but have always regarded
them as martyrs to duty, mistaken in
the size of the obligation laid upon
them. have never blamed the man
who Stunned untidiness at home, be
he father, husband, son or brother,
and that, my friends, is the real whip
that drives some men from their own
fresides. The really neat woman Is
neat at all times. and the slack one is
very unwise when she INDUCES her
propensities ut home. Cleanliness may
be next to godliness, and certainly
neatness is next to beauty Chicago

Fine laundry work is the means by
which two women in an eastern city
are earning comfortable living. Be.

sources and having no special talent
beyond thorough knowledge of the
art of clear starching, lace cleaning and
fine ironing, they started in with some
fine handkerchiefs. collars and cuffs
and doilies sent by a few interested
friends. AT the end of few months
they were oyertaxed with orders and
able to employ couple Of assistants
and a delivery boy. In addition to fine
underwear, they also admitted babies

nuuine.. Ahilitx,

One of the most successful Of the
dress manufacturing firms in New
York is composed of two youhH women
who while engaged in teaching began
in n very modest way to put out some
original work in dressmaking. First
with the design for collarettes, then for
waists and finally for whole suits these
women have gradually enlarged their
field until they supply some of the
largest retail stores in New York and
in other cities. Forty machines are
run by electricity, and two floors on a
prominent thoroughfare are given up
to their work.
