be more generous, more forgiving?
Girls are natural reformers. The Ken
osha girls are making big step in the
only direction in which reform trees grow.

the girls and women THEMSELVES have
come to recognize one standard for them

tiny tobacco pipes. All are seated on the
floor, and if my lady leaves the box she

The japanese women are often seen
playing with dolls as big as babies, but this
is only one way of amusing themselves
and not because they are not capable of
anything more serious. They are the
most devoted mothers, and the morals. es-

A WHOLESOME BoYCOTT.

A Chicago paper recently published the
following without comment:
''Kenosha, Wis.-rhe young women Of
the Kenosha schools practically have de-
clared boycott on the boys who smoke
cigarets. Fifty of them are represented
in a new society the rules Of which make
it a Unable offense for a young woman to
be seen in the company Of a man smoking
cigarets."
That the girls have taken a step in the
right direction is evident. They have done
exactly what the boys would do if the
girls were to smoke cigarets. drink, swear
or do any one of the numerous deeds
which 'boy" flesh seems heir to.
The boys, however, would 60 at this
matter a little differently. They would
form no boycott; they would simply and
naturally drop" the girls who INDUCED in
what was unseemly.
1t Is a queer truth that girls need the
strength of an organization to enable them
to hight what is offensive A boy or 4
man acts at once and alone. If he oues-
tons the subject of dropping a girl who
is not quite up to the standard, he knows
without asking that every other boy of
his acquaintance will do the same thing
Right there lies the difficulty: if a girl
drops a boy from her list of friends. She
Is never absolutely sure that some other
girl, charming, attractive, agreeable, will
not heal his bruised vanity by bestowina

marked by the introduction of partcu-
larry fetching basquine. The coat has
revers on the sleeves, lapels and back.
The basquine may be made in either
black gros grain or gace silk, according
to taste, with the revers of the same ma
terial. The trimming represented in our
engraving is a ruche of black lace, orna.
mented at regular distances with small
steel drops.
The revers might be made of white
glace, which would impart more dressy
appearance to the small garment. The
basquine might also be edged with a thick
silk cord, beaded with jet and aiguilettes
added on the shoulders. Narrow black rib
bon velvet, edged with white, might also
be used for trimming.
For summer wear this basquine would
look well made Of white pique, with col
ored revers.

NAGASAKI, Japan, Feb. l6.-One of
the attractive Textures Of the Japanese
dress is its simplicity There are no frills

A canary was weighed and it was found
to turn the scale at 247 grains, or some
thing over half an ounce. The food was
also weighed, and it was found that the
bird eats 80 times its weight every month,
or actually more than his weight every
day, thus showing that the proverbial
pig is light eater compared with the
canary.

japanese woman is as particular about ty'
ing her "obi" as the American woman is
the fit of her gown.
One advantage of the changeless pattern
is that the cloth manufacturers know the
requirements and make the material &C.
cordingly. The average width of the goods
is IA inches and it is usually sold by the
bolt or pattern. The merchants keep a
particular quality of goods for the obj
and there is quaint superstition in the
use of it for the making of children's
clothes. 1t is said that a child whose
dress is made of an obj will surely be
long-lived
1t is a mistake to think that the gay
dresses we see on the stage are worn on
the streets. Many striking and pictur-
esque costumes are seen, but among well
dressed people only the more quiet colors
are worn-shades of gray being the most
common. Brilliant hues are reserved for
the house and the children. Nothing is
too gay for them. The American visitors
look aghast at the combinations of purple,
red and yellow and wonders at the auda-
city of the mixture. In any other hands
than those of an oriental such colors would
fight and scream, but the Jap iuggles with
the prismatic elements and produces eff
feets that are the more charming because
of their apparent incongruity.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1904-03-10

Next to their pretty manners and pic
turesque kimonos, the headdress of the
Japanese women is their greatest attrac-
ton. There are no ugly wisps and flying
locks. 1t is not unusual to see a water
| carrier whose hair is dressed as artistically
as if she were about to be presented at
court. Not long ago my maid came into
my room. rubbed her hands over her hair
as if in the act of combing it. She want
ed to know if she could have her hair
dressed there, and |, curious to see it
done said yes
The little hairdresser came in, smiling
and bowling She was about l6 and was
dressed in a striped gray silk kimono; The
''obi' was Of purple silk lined with la en-.
der, and below that was betting of crepe
silk and another shade of lavender. The
maid spread paper on the floor and sat
down upon it; then she threw a large
handkerchief over her shoulders and took
a mirror in her hand in order to watch the
performance.
The sleeves of a kmono are so large and
long that they are annoying to work in.
so the little hairdresser twisted a cord
across her shoulders and under the arms
W hNiN up linen she look a Dalr
of long shears and began to cut the strings
that had held up the various strands of
the girls hair, after which she took a
small wooden comb not more than three
inches long and combed the coarse black
strands for about 20 minutes. A big
square of cloth was dipped in hot water
and the head thoroughly rubbed Some
thick oil was then put on and the hair
combed until it was as smooth as ebony
and so stiff that it stood out alone.
l had often heard that Japanese women
put mucilagnous substance on their hair
to make it retain its smoothness and posi-.
ton, but the maid assured me that this
was not so, The hairdresser divided the
hair into several strands and tied them Sc.
curely with strong cord. The strands were
then twisted into puffs and figures a
string of colored beads tied at the base
OF the central strand, and a long pin like
an American hatpin, was run through it.
The work required about an hour After
it has been dressed the hair can be worn
week, as the Jap woman sleeps with her
head on small block about eight inches
long, four high and three broad; it is not
so uncomfortable as might be imagined as
the top is covered with tiny cushion.

just what the appetite OF canary is.
