SECRET OF SUCCESS

The secret of a girls success is
charm, and that is impossible to de-
scribe.
It is a strange, elusive quality that
is Unborn and cannot be cultivated.
A girl may be exceedingly plain and
she has charm.
Tact is a large ingredient in charm.
To know what to say and when to
say it; to know when to speak and
when to keep silence; to be always SYM
pathetic and yet not obtrude your SYM
pathy-these are few of the qualities
that make tact.
To tact is added personal magnet
ism, and then you have an inkling Of
When you use the term "man' 8 wo-
man. it means woman who is popu-
lar with all men.
Now, a girl can be very sweet and
lovable and still not be universally and
Immediately liked by men.
Men have to like girl with charm,
whether they quite approve of her or
not.
That intangible quality draws them.
Do not think that because you are
not a universal belle you are a failure
as a woman.
Some of the best women in the world
have had but few lovers.
But those they have had have loved
them well.
If you can't have men friends, make
up your mind to have some other inter-
est. There is always something for every
one to do. Interest yourself in club
work, in study, in work of some kind.
All the settlements are more than glad
of assistants.
And then, perhaps, some day. when
you least expect him, love will tap you
on the shoulder. and the right man, the
man who has learned to love you for
your goodness and love toward others,
will stand ready to love you for your
own sweet womanliness
So dom It be discouraged if men are
not tumbling over themselves seeking
an introduction to you.
If you cannot cultivate magnetism,
you can cultivate goodness and sweet

Ribbon Color Schemes,

Ribbons are a vastly increasing ia
yorite, for all sorts Of trimming effects.
Countless color schemes can be carried
frock can be advantageously trimmed
with several sets of girdle, collar, sash
and shoulder knots. By the way, these
same shoulder knots are rather recent

form of strap Of ribbon with a rosette
at either end This passes across the
shoulder, the rosette occupying relative
ly the same place back and front. 9th
ers extend along the shoulder seam, and
have shower effect to hang over the
sleeve; while still others resort to the
shoulders as variously as may be.

CARE OF THE EYES

Never try to do fine work on dark
cloth by the aid of artificial light.
Avoid bright light after coming from
the dark, or looking steadily at fame
of light.
Never read books or papers with small
print in poor light; not at all would
be better
When reading, lean well back, holding
up the book, and allowing the light to
fall on it from the side.
Always shield 4 baby's eyes from the
sun or strong light while sleeping, or
the sight may become weak.
For styes on the eyes try bathing
them with milk, or applying cold tea
leaves, as these often give relief.
Even when the eyes are in good condi-
ton they are benefited by occasionally
bathing them in cold salt water; and
when they have been overtaxed this
will be found to afford great relief.
Never abuse the eyes. If you feel
that they need attention in any way,
consult the best oculist at once. Many
latent troubles are first discovered by
"a specialist.
Weak eyes are usually a sign of deli
cacy of constitution; they are common
in badly nourished children. Cod liver
oil, with quinine bark or iron tonic, and
plenty of milk and fresh air are the
grand remedies. Overmuch study should
be avoided, and going out in wet or
even damp weather and late in the even.

The Leader of the "Flattists,'' Who
Believe in the Science as Well as the
Religion Of the Bible-Branches Of
the Society Have Been Formed in
Almost Every Country.

Lady Blount has fad unique even
among the. hobbies Of titled English
DANES. She believes that the earth is
fiat and immovable and devotes most of
her time to lecturing and writing
against the modern scientific conception
of the universe. Her zeal has won for
her the presidency Of the Universal
Zetetic society, or 'flattists' as they
are irreverently termed.
Pinning her faith to what she calls
vealed by the Croator,' she boldly de-
clares all the teachings of astronomy
since the days of Galileo false and per-
nicious, leading to paganism and perdi-
tion. She asserts that the earth, instead
of being a giddy ball, whirling thru
space at the rate of something like nine
teen miles second, as scientists have
taught us to believe, is a fixed, fat and
immovable plain.
Thousands Of so-called Christians, -

right on religion, but wrong on science.

gone to Manchuria as superintendent
Of Red Cross work. The grand duchess
carried with her the belated Easter

900 souvenir eggs, each containing a
book, soap and towel, tobacco pouch,
notepaper and other trifes and each was
wrapped in a handkerchief bearing a

also basket containing thirteen eggs

for distribution among the men who had

Married secretlyto the Prince of Wales,
at the Demand Of the King She Left
Her Husband for the Good Of Eng
land and Found a Refuge in British
Columbia

In the simple announcement that
Mrs. Seymour died last week in British
Columbia, people who know their court
gossip can read a tragedy. Before the
Prince Of Wales came into his present
title he was stationed at Malta as a
junior naval officer. His brother, the
Duke Of Clarence, heir to the throne,
was engaged to marry the Princess May
Of Teck, and there was little prospect
that Prince George would ever reach
the throne. So when he met Miss Sey-
mour,. the daughter of his naval chief,
and fell in love with her, there was
a secret marriage.
When Admiral Seymour was told he
was furious. and declared that the
couple must separate and that the
princes father must be told at once.
The young couple begged for their hap
piness in vain, the angry admiral left
for London to lay the story before King
Edward, who was then Prince of Wales.
He took the matter very coolly, and al
tho he refused to acknowledge the mar
riage and told the couple that they
must keep it secret, he did not with

TAUGHT TO SPEND MONEY

Young women students at the Uni

in the art Of properly spending money.
The idea is borrowed in part from
Ames, Iowa, where Professor Georgia
Witter has started new courses in the
domestic-science department. Repre-
sentatives from the university at Lin
coin, Neb., have visited Ames and say
that it will cost $4,000 to establish the
desired department.
d There is some puzzling as to why so
large an amount is required. There
have been hints that possibly Miss Bou-
ton, who is in charge Of Chat depart
ment at Lincoln, proposes to expend it
for miniature department. store, with
experimental courses in shopping, but
she disdains a reply to that suggestion.
Miss Witter has been doing some mis-

that it is Of more Importance to q

THE APPLE FAD.

To eat an apple each day is one Of
the new wrinkles among number Of
new fads taken up by society. Sud

realized that apples can be bought in

there will be some reason for society
adopting the apple fad.
