HOW TO INSURE HAPPINESS
The JOY of Living Is Often Lost
Through Overlooking Small
Pleasures.

Many of us miss the joys that might
be ours by keeping our eyes fixed on
those of other people. No one can en-
Joy his own opportunities for happi-
ness while he Is envious of another's,
says Success. We lose great dealsof
the Joy OF living by not cheerfully &C
cepting the small pleasures that come
to us every day, instead of longing and
wishing for what belongs to others.
We do not take any pleasure in our
own modest horse and carriage, be-
cause we long for the automobile or
victoria that some one else owns The
edge is taken off the enjoyment of our
own little home, because we are
watching the palatial residence of our
neighbor. We can get no satisfaction
out Of a trolley ride into the country
or sail on river steamer, because
some one else can enjoy the luxury of
his own carriage oryacht. Life has its
full measure Of happiness for every
one of us. II we would only make up
our minds to make the very most Of
every opportunity that comes our way,
instead Of longing for thu things that
come our neighbours way.

velvet and Corduroy IN F5le Favor
silk and Fur III Com
bination.

In every perfectly appointed ward
robe this season there Is at least one
velvet and one velveteen or corduroy
gown. Never were these materials so
popular. They are wonderfully pliable
and are shown in the most exquisite
shades, as well as black, says the Delin-
Gator. When the entire velvet costume
is not possible, there must be at least
coat or skirt Of the rich fabric. The
association of cloth and velvet, match
Ing In color. is one of the fancies Of the
season.
The smartest walking costumes are
made Of the hollow-eut cords, new
corduroy weave. The skirts of these
costumes are plated, with the plaits
stitched down below the hips and far
ing prettily below, and are in comfort
able walking length. The jacket may
be either Of the long-skirted variety
Or In tourist style. An important ex-
ample Of this corduroy suit was in a
rich bronze shade. The Louis XIV. coat
had vest Of suede In pale tan, fastened
with bronze and gold buttons. and the
skirt was plated model in instep
length. To be worn with this costume
was blouse Of chiffon cloth in the
same shade as the corduroy, having re-
lief notes of Chinese embroidery in
brilliant-hued silks, and collar, GUNS
and belt of suede matching the vest.
A hat Of the corduroy, in tricorne shape,
simply adorned with suede band and
coz pompon, completed this attractive
creation.
The latest fashion in millinery for
wee girls Is the large white felt or
beaver hat, trimmed with big clusters
OF velvet and silk roses to match the
solor OF the little cloth or silk pelisse
or coat. This particular fashion pos
sesses definite advantage, the roses
being Infinitely easier to match than
the headgear itself, while single hat
can be made to do duty for two or three
different toilettes. Brown is, besides,
much worn by the nursery folk.
Among the dress accessories are lit
tie waistcoats of silk, ornate velvet.
vesting, cloth or leather. the last usual
ly being cut to order. They are precise
and severe in finish, though all sorts
OF devices are wrought upon them In
braid needlework, jet, and even in beads
The smartest examples are to be worn
with the open coats, Of which there is
great variety.
There is a new weave OF yelling, quite
heavy, called Panama wolfe, that is used
for street and semidress gowns. 1t is
shown in both plain and embroidered
effects and in the most fashionable
colors.
The association OF silk with fur is ex-
tremely smart. Some of the most at
tractive visiting, church and reception
gowns are fashioned of the new soft
silks and either trimmed with fur bands
or accompanied by handsome wrap
or pelerine and muff.

the recent campaign was such as to raise
him in the estimation of President
Roosevelt, and may have had something
to do with the latter's generous treat
ment in Offering him the choice of two
desirable government positions, that Of
a Panama canal commissioner, or a
member Of the interstate commerce

Some of the senator's democratic
friends in Missouri are inclined to at
tribute the capture of the state by the
republicans to the fact that Senator
Cockrell and men like him would not
descend to the personal abuse campaign.
The senator is content to accept his de-
feat IL 1t resulted from following such
an honorable course. He has not finally
decided whether he will accept the canal
commissionership or seat on the inter-
state commerce commission. There has
recently been good deal of talk about
reducing the canal commission TO a
membership of three on the grounds that
II is at present an unwieldy body and
only one or two of it's members spend

mails. These little animals have come
from far distant Madagascar. They were
purchased by the zoo of leading i'm
porter in New York. They are an inter-
esting collection and attract great at
tention at the zoo. They resemble a
monkey with the head of raccoon.
Like their cousins, the monkeys, they
are night providers, fruit eaters and jun
gle jewellers. They are reddish brown
in color and have hairy ruff or collar
about their necks.
The national zoo is rapidly accumu-
lating collection of animals equal to
that of any geological Institution in the
world. 1t is not generally known that
at present there are on exhibition in the
zoo over 80 distinct species of animals
and birds that are the only specimens
of their kind in the two Americas.
Among the curiosities are several ami

themselves, that were sent by Emperor
Menelik of Abyssinia, to President
Roosevelt One of these is a zebra which
was pet about Emperor Menelik's pal
ace in Adds Abeba, the capital city. Of
Abyssinia He shows his training and is
quite tame and gentle, and is easily led
about by halter. Buffalo Bill last
summer contributed herd of Is buff
faloes to the zoo and all of them are in
excellent condition. The herd has been
increased to 16 by the birth of a calf.
