GIRL FRIENDSHIPS.

There is nothing that is such last
ing pleasure as the possession of II
really true friend. says the Paragon
Monthly. But how many people lose
their friends by their own foolish con-
duct, and then seem unable to see that
it is through their own fault that the
once pleasant intercourse is at an end.
Girls must remember that to cali Il
friend darling to her face and speak
i'll of her behind her back is not the
way to keep her love. In a friend one
ought to be sure of finding some one
whose advice is worth taking, and
whose affection is always the same for
us to fall back on, however i'll the rest
of the world treats us. Friendship
is something better than mere for
NAL knowledge of each other, and the
lapse Of years between our meetings
should not be able to make the least
difference in our regard for each other

HOME MADE BEAUTY.

They are telling many tales OF Lady
Feversham in England these days. Her
daughter Lady Ulrica DuncOmbe, who
is declared by artists and sculptors
to be the most beautiful unmarried
woman in England society. is soon to
marry Colonel Evcrard Barring, brother
of Lord Revelstoke. 1t is said that
Lady Ulrica's beauty is largely due to
the extraordinary vigilance and com
nonsense Of her mother, who superin.
tended in every particular the regimen
led by her daughters when they were
children.
1t seems that when Lady Ulrica was
child her mother never permitted
her to 20 out in the sun without veil.
This prevented tan and freckles, and
kept the face soft and tender. Every
hour was subdivided into periods for
alternate study and rest. Her food
was carefully selected. weighed and
measured in order to insure not only
health. but to produce beauty of form
and perfect coloring.
Lady Ulrica did not go in for ath-
letics. She swan and walked, but she
never played tennis or golf in the hot
sun or danced till morning in hot hall

THE OUTLOOK FOR 1905.

The fashion outlook for this season
was never SO bewilderinsly complex
as at the present moment. Never
were there so many absolutely diverse
STYLES to choose from, each and every
one bearing the hall mark Of the very
latest design, and also being indesc"ib-
ably smart
Crinolinc is more than limited at, for
there are undcrskirts made to wear
with street and house gowns that have
two and three pieces of feather bone
inserted in tuckS or cOrdings, so that
the skirt stands out almost as did the
crinoline skirts of olden time. In truth,
some aid is necessary to hold out such
width of skirt as is required in the
fashionable gown intended for late
autumn or early winter wear.
Cloth costumes will be extremely
fashionable, so also will velvet and
velveteen costumes, while among the
new materials are many so-called vel
vets and velveteens that bear the
strongest possible resemblance tt
plush-but with rather Il shorter naI
than was fashionable when plush was
last in favor. Silk, satin, brocade, al
are in demand for evening gowns. ant
also there are gauZcs, metz, laces, ant
tulles that suggest ball gowns whci
seen first in the material ltself.-llar

Dancer in Crowds.

Experiments which have been car
ried out on the weight of crowds go
to show that the loading of eighty
two pounds to 1O2 pounds per square
foot, usually assumed in Germany In
floor design, and prescribed by the
Ministry of Public Works for this
purpose, is far too low to allow for
conditions that may frequently occur.
It is urged that this figure should be
raised to at least 123 pounds to IL"
pounds square foot. otherwise the
assumed factor of safety may be en-
croached on materially.-London En-

"BLUEBELL' LIKE HYMN TUNE

ABOUT LAMPS.

The common kerosene lamp, which is
used in almost every household. despite
the electric and gas lights, will give
clear, bright light and be Il source OF
comfort to the family if properly cared
for. The bowl of the lamp should be
kept full of oil, but when not in use
the wick should be turned low to keep
the oil from oozinS out upon the burn
er. Use none but the best of burners.
Wash the burners often and scour any
'discolored parts. Lamp chimneys are
not near so liable to break when eX-
posed to changes of temperature II
they are put in Il pan of cold water
and allowed to heat gradually until
the water is cold again. Polish with old
newspapers. Brown spots may be re-
moved by rubbing them with coarse
salt. See that the fiues fit closely so
there is no danger of their falling off
when the lamp is moved. Fill your
lamps by daylight. Put in Il new wick
as soon as the old one begins to clog,
and before it is burned out.
1t is perfectly wonderful how bright
and brilliant light will be if lamp
is thus cared for. You can read as
well as if it was daylight.-S. J. H.. in

CHANGE OF MENU.

! So many housekeepers make the mis-
take of having regular schedules which
they follow for the week. Yet too
much importance cannot be laid upon
constant change.
Mutton Mondays, beef Tuesdays and
so on, coming regularly, week after
week, certainly isn't conducive to ap-
petite, especially if it's at all "finicky.'
It's bad enough for the housemother
to know every one of the twenty -one
meals a week" in advance. But. un-
less it's absolutely necessary, the same
sequences of meals should be avoided.
Boarding houses nearly always have
regular meats regular nights-a mis-
take that is got into by the effort for
n system. But system isn't in having
the same things over and over again
in the same way. There's system in
constant change, especially in constant
change in menu.
Another mistake. on the same lines,
is made usually by the very young
housekeeper-and that is in dishing up
the "left-overs" at the very next meal.
instead of giving the palate time to
forget.
Change, change. change. Doctors
and taste agree in preaching that. for
health and strength have their foun-
dations in appetite. and appetite de
pcnds largely upon change.

When homeward came the prodigal
Who'd wandered far away,
And spent in riotous living
His substance day by day,
And said he was not worthy
To be called his fathers son.
And asked for husks and servants hire
To atone for what he'd done:
When hearts weled up with gladness
And smiles a greeting gave
This DrodIgal. repentant-
This most detected knave-
VIII you tell me who alone bewailed
That unexpected scene.
Whose eyes filed up with briny tears.
Who knew Il sorrow keen?
There was one whom none could comfor
Out on the farm that day.
Who had no joy to celebrate.
Who would the feast delay;
He certainly knew real misery
The btterest cup to quaff--
And I've always felt a sorrow for
That unfortunate fatted calf!
