Mrs. John Barton Payne's beauty
luncheon" in Chicago attracted SO much
attention in New York and resulted in
so many letters of advice that the host
ess gave up her original plan of pre-
senting prize to the prettiests girl in
the party, and avoided invidious dis
junction by presenting each of the fif-
teen girls with a golden apple. This
all came about because Mrs. Payne was
1ndIScreet enough to announce that she
had adopted a standard of beauty
and which, through some inadvertence,
did not include the nose. She fixed up
on the size, color and expression of the
eye, the shape of the mouth, the purity
of the complexion and the general SYM
metry of facial contour, but she forgot
all about noSeS-So that, given a rose
bud mouth, pair of soulful eyes, a
peaches and-cream skin, and an oval
face, pug-nosed, Roman nosed or
African-nosed girl of the most exag-
gerated type was admissible. Still with
all this there is no doubt that if one
prize had been bestowed, it would have
gone to Mrs. Malcolm Even. She was
Camille Coffee before her marriage
last January, and the men of the Old
Dominion swear she is the handsomest
and most perfectly formed woman
south of Mason and DiXon's line

If the near side" car ordinance is

her supporters in the Women's Health

commissioner has signified his inten-

Mary Andrea Seese, who came to
New York from England on last Mon
day and has gone to Wisconsin to be
married to a farmer, enjoys the dis
tinction of being the great-grand-
daughter of the only woman ever in
itiated into the mysteries of a Ma
sonic lodge. That woman was a resi-
dent of Yorkshire, and her husband
was an active member of the order.
She was not inclined to believe her
husbands excuse that he was kept out
late O. nights because of lodge meet
ings"-for that story was as common
ninety or one hundred years ago as
1t is now-and she determined on a
personal investigation. Concealing
herself in a loft above the lodgeroom,
she cut hole in the floor to observe
what was going on. Being plump and
weighty, she slipped through the CELL
ing just as the high-mucky muck was
about to perform some rite of a partic-
ularly secret character. She had heard
enough to make 1t necessary she should
hear more, or go away with a part of
a secret unexplained, SO the brethren
hauled the buxOm investigator down
and explained the eXigencies of the oc-
casion. Thereupon she was initiated
into the fellowcraft degree and it is
said (but not generally believed) that
up to the time of her death she kept
all the secrets she had learned. A
pen sketch was made of the
unexpected entrance, and it was cop
led widely throughout the United
Kingdom. The bride-to- be has one,
which she has exhibited to few wom-
upon 1t except her husband.

To woman's civic club in Helena,
Mont, belongs the credit for beautify-
ing the grounds surrounding the gov
eminent Building. After the struc-
lures were finished no appropriation
was made for laying out the grounds
properly, and they were left bare and
unattractive. The women decided it
was reproach to their state to leave
the grounds SO naked of verdure, and
they succeeded in getting enough
money from their treasury to buy
young trees. These they Watered and
tended with their own hands for three
years, and of the $50 trees set out they
lost only four. At the end of the three
years the women got a bill through
the legislature providing for the care
or the government grounds, and since
then the trees have been cared for by
state gardener. But to the women
belongs the credit Of the beautiful
lawns.

Diamond studded teeth were such a
barbaric absurdity the caprice never
went beyond a few silly pates who
wanted something raw" but the
thumb-nail photograph really is COM
ing into vogue now that it has been
taken up in London by the engaged
girls. The nail first is manicured by a
special process, then coated with SEN
sitized solution. Next over the nail
a flexible film is imposed and secured
by tiny clips at either side of the fin
ger. This is treated just as the or
binary photograph is treated, and, If
successful. the features stand out in
bold relief against the delicate pink of
the nail. But alas, the nail grows, and
with it the picture, elongating the fea-
lures, so in time it becomes necessary
to cut off the top of the head of the
beloved one. The girl is left without
the picture of her fiance until another
film is exposed. The wearing of dia-
monds in the thumb nails was tried by
an actress, but found to be painful and
dangerous.

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR cATARRH
Just Breathe HYomei -Four Times a
Day and Be Cured.

il a few years ago, some one had
said sou can cure catarrh BY breathing
air charged with healing balsams the
idea would have been ridiculed, and it
remained for that eminent Investigator,
r. I. Booth, to discover in Hyomei this
method of cure.
Hyomei has performed almost mirae-
ulous cures Of catarrh, and it is today
recognized BY leading members of the
medical profession as the only adyer-
tised remedy that can be relied upon to
do just what II claims. The complete
outfit of Hyomei costs but S1.00 and
consists OF an inhaler, medicine drop
per and bottle of Hyomei.
Rev. j. B. Cook, Of Holliston, Mass,
says: my wife has suffered greatly
from catarrh for fifteen years. Nearly
four weeks ago she commenced to use
Hyomei and the beneficial effect was i'm
mediate. 1t is very seldom that she
needs to clear her head and throat and
she is able to rest quietly at night"
Breathe Hyomei through the inhaler
for q few minutes four times a day and
it will cure the worst case Of catarrh.
1t soothes and heals the mucous mem.
brane OF the air passages, prevents ir-
ritation and effects complete and last
ing cure.
In Barre there are scores Of well
known people who have been cured of
catarrh by Hyomei II it does not help
you Riekert & Wells will return the
money you paid for Hyomei.
