COMMENTS BY A WOMAN.

If women would realize how much
eating and drinking between meals
encourages indigestion. they would re-
frain from indulging in these things.
Just think how your stomach is taxed
by innumerable cups Of tea, coffee, ice
cream, bon-bons and cake. How can
you enjoy your home dinner after
indiscriminate eating aud drinking?
If you do not indulge IN the refresh
mcnts at n reception you are put down
as n crank. Better 10 he n crank and
possess good health than TO be a gen
cral fnvoritc and ruin your digestive
organs.
A housekeeper said recently that one
should never Judge young woman's
ability as cook 10y the cake she offers
you. Almost any girl learns how to
make cake. Insist on stopping To
dinner and observe the plain boiled
potatoes.

MORBID CURIOSITY OF WOMEN.
The term. the weaker SEX applies
10 but very few Of the feminine pOpu-
latiOn nowadays, and az the time adj
yances the weak and clinging women
are less in evidence. IL is rather sur
prising and quite disheartening 10
learn the number OF women who are
curious seekers of morbid sights and
many Of the horrible accidents which
have occurred lately have proved that
tc be the case. Tie woman with the del
icate feelings has been replaced by the
woman who is capable Of doing nearly
everything IN any sphere in which she
may be placed, and they very often go
out OF their way % see things which are
not fit for sight The General SlOcum
disaster gave these creatures great de-
light, and seeking out the dead bodies
the police were kept busy with a long
stream Of women who claimed 10 he
looking for their loved ones, while
they were simply curious. Another
place which is frcquented by women
is the animal show AZ the beaches.
There several times day trainers Of
wild animals appear in the arena and
compel lions, tigers, pumas, jaguars
and many others 20 perform. II is a
dangerous proceeding, and very short
time ago one well-known trainer nearly
lost his life. After that became known
women crowded IN 10 see the show.
Not infreqently do women trainers
enter the cage and put the animals
through their PAGES. And still women
go TO witness such things. II is very
true that some women have a morbid
sense Of curiosity.

NEW NOTIONS IN PARAsOLs.

The latest innovation is the straw
handle plated in green and yellow,
green and red, yellow and green, ac-
cording TO the color Of the sunshade.
The silk parasols are the thing in every
color possible, plain and trimmed
Clever people buy the plain silk ones
and trim the edges with little gal
loon of multi-cOlOred embroidery, or
sometimes white guipure. There is a
most fascinating range In purple Jap
anese and other multi-cOlored trim
mings, says the Queen. Many Of the
new parasols are tucked, and some Of
these are bordcred with two or three
tucks sewn together.

RFADFD CANDLE SHADES

Beaded shades are IN high favor for
candles. They are not difficult 10
make, and the making Of them is pret-
~ occupation for spare minutes. There
are so many kinds Of lovely beads now
adays that one can hardly make an
ugly shade II one selects delicate. fine,
translucent beads. Gold beads, silver
beds, very pale turquoise, green and
crystal beads are charming. but, as q
rule, they are not mixed. II one is ex-
pert, a little pattern may be strung
into the strands that go 70 compose the
shades; but even this is prettier for be-
ing kept low and refined in tone. The
light shining through the beads gives
them a wonderful brllliGnce.

COMING FASHIONS IN HATS.

Peacock feathers. despite supersti-
tion, are steadily making their way
rs trimming for street hats, turhaus
and other small hats.
Coo feathers and hacklc also are to
be used largely on chapeaux for street
and general wear. and will be used In
both large and small feathers.
Velvet will bc the material most
fashionable for the big-plumed hats
with high crowns. These hats look
well on very tall, slender women.
Bird of paradise feathers In rich
ana vivid zones will ne among the
most expensive novelties. and in the
soft yellow and deep burnt orange
shades will bc favored most.
The walking hats and other cha
pcaux intended for country wear and
travelling are not to bc SO severe in
outline or so plain and mnnnish in their
fashioninC as hitherto, and will there
fore be more feminine and pleasing.

Reynolds prejudices.

Reynolds seated himself In the H.
