= AN ANCIENT ISLANDER
self Talk Than 10 the Man
WhO Ridicules Her.

The less foundation there Is for SLAM
der the longer it lives. How many ideas
are in existence to-day that have been
handed down through the channels of
literature and verbal tradition and are
firmly believed In by the mass Of man
kind, and yet are absolutely erroneous.
For example, take that common idea of
woman's garrulity. From the preva-
lence of this mistaken notion one might
imagine that man has lost the power
of speech and that woman is the sole
medium for verbal communication. The
so-called comic" papers TEEN with
Jokes in which woman's alleged fond
ness for words, words, Words" as
Hamlet says, is held up for ridicule. The
men who write cynical paragraphs for
the press are continually harping on
this ancient theme Of feminine loQuacity
with such remarks as this: "A man
in Missouri hasn't spoken word to
his wife in 16 years. Perhaps he was
unwilling to interrupt" Or, 1T was
said of a certain great man that he
could be silent in seven languages. 1t
is rarely that woman prefers One-sev-
enth of this feat" Funny? Perhaps,
but with sting.
Let us see whether verboslty is q
purely feminine characteristic. Preach
ing and the law may be regarded as
chief among the ''talkative" profess
sions, and these are filled almost exclu-
sively by men, Barbering, too, which
is somewhat of conversational calling,
attracts many more men than women.
and who ever heard of female auc-
tioneer? The truth is, the power of
speech was given to both men and wom-
en- for Intelligent use, and one sex
abuses the privilege about as much as
the other. But to lay the entire burden
Of criticism upon woman is the essence

BEAUTY'S SEVEN NURSES.
4 List of Don'ts Which Women Who
Wish to Remain Attractive
Should Obey.

Don't forget that the nurses of q
woman's beauty are seven-fresh air,
sunshine, warmth, rest, sleep, food and
whatever stirs the blood, be it exer-
else or enthusiasm.
Don't neglect sleep. You can sleep
yourself into good looks. A long nap
and hot bath will make any woman
more attractive. and lift years from
her shoulders.
Don't eat when tired and don't work
when tired. 1t is mistake to work
when not in fit condition-bad for the
work and worse for you.
Don't miss your beauty Sleep" It
Is mistake to go to bed late at night,
rise at daybreak, and imagine that
every hour taken from sleep is an
hour gained.
Don't give unnecessary time to a
certain established routine of house.
work, when it could be much more
probably spent in rest and recreation
Don't sit down to table as soon as
you come in from work, or a round of
social duties. Lie down, or sit down
for ten minutes, waiting until you can
partake of your dinner with the physi-
cal machinery rested and refreshed.
Don't battle in hard water. Soften it
with a little powdered borax, or q
handful Of oatmeal.
Don't battle the face while it is very
warm or very cold.
Don't wash the face when travelling,
unless 1t is with little alcohol and
water, or little cold cream.
Don't: attempt to remove dust with
cold water. Give the face hot bath
with soap, and then rinse thoroughly
with clear tepid or cold water j"
Don't rub the face with too coarse q
towel. Treat it as you would the finest
porcelain, tenderly and delicately.
Don't be afraid Of sunshine and
fresh dir. They offer you bloom and
color.
Don't forget that hearty laughter is
source of relaxation. So are all high
thoughts, as those of hope, beauty,
trust and love.
Don't forget that beauty is power
There is nothing more potent. It is
to a woman what capital is to a mer-
chant. Its absence is a misfortune; its
culture wise and proper.-Washingt

officer was there also. He walked up
to Edgerton and said: What's your
