Reforming School Boys Clothes.

Proper Clothing for School Boys is the
subject of a report of United States Consul
Halstead at Birmingham England. Ac-
cording to this report the head master CT
one of tho oldest schools in Surrey, the
Kingston Grammar School, recently ad-
dressed a letter to the parents of his pupils
urging the adoption of more rational
dress for boys. This schoolmaster asserts
that the vest, or waistcoat is no protection
to the most vulnerable part of the body,
the back, because the hinder part of the
waistcoat Is not of wool or a heavy ma
terial, while the tightly buttoned vest pre-
vents the fullest increase of chest growth.
He advises the parents to dispense with the
waistcoat and to clothe their boys in
sweaters and fannels; in his opinion a blue
flannel shirt and flannel collar with a red
tie would be smart and pleasing. While
acting as master at Loretto school, at
which the boys dressed as suggested and
were enabled to take active exercise at any
time without running the risk of taking a
chill, he observed that the average boy be-
came larger limbed, broader chested, and
on the whole more physically fit than the
average boy at any other public school"
Bicycle rides to school and the various
physical exercises and outdoor sports re-
suit, he says. in much perspiration, and IL
a linen or cotton shirt Is worn there is con-
slant liability to colds.

THE QUEST OF BEAUTY
Fashioned Dances and
Games Revived.
THEY DEVELOP GRACE
STATELINESS AND THE ART OF
MAKING CURTsEYs.
Will Be Seen at the Resorts Next
Summer Good
Recipes.

Did you ever closely observe lady of the
old school? Do you know just the kind of
grace that she has, and how different 1t Is
from that in fashion today? There Is
little stateliness about 1t, a certain air of
the queen that has rather gone out Of fash
ion in this slap-dash day of ours. There Is
a great deal that6we learn from that lady
of the old school. Many of her ways would
lend charm to our modernness. And now
that her games and dances are much in
vogue our girls may acquire many more
charms
The beauty Of it is that not one of the
modern virtues will be lost Miss 1905 will
not renounce her broad shoulders. grena-
der chest and twentyfour-inch waist. But
in addition to these she will learn a dig
nifed poise such nothing can teach 50
well as the minuet
This old dance, which has been revived
more than ever during the past winter, and
promises to be seen at the summer resorts
during the coming season. is school Of
grace in itself. Its steps and sweeping
bows are SO low that a dancer cannot pass
through them without perfect poise. 1t is
far ca sier to be graceful when moving
quickly than slowly; for instance, any one
can dance a gay little polka WELL But If
you should attend the classes of a dra-
matte school you would see them devoting
hours to the rehearsal of a stately bow.
You would see the new pupils webbing
while endeavorng to draw one foot back in
a sweeping curve and balance for second
in that bending position. Then, worst of
ALL comes the moment of restoring them
selves to an upright position. To do this
without jerk, almost a jump of relief. is
to be mistress of every muscle in ones
body
So take lessons in the mfnuet. Between
lessons practice the bows and the steps
in your own room before the mirror. The
girl who can dance the minuet well should
be able to enter any drawing room with
ease and grace. She will be sure of her
footing, so to speak, She will be able to
stand still without looking distressed,
which is the final test of self-control. Did
you ever give yourself this test? Can you
stand before a room full of people with
many eyes upon you and let your hands
fall easily at your side? If you feel the
need of something for your hands to fidget
with or If all your muscles become rigid,
then you still have much to learn.

First Jewelry Store.

From the Boston Herald.
1t may interest women to know that the
first jewelry store was started in the city
Of Chang On about three thousand years
ago. The Celestial Vanderbilts and Astors
of that period knew nothing of the fascina-
ton Of diamonds. because diamonds were
not in vogue at that B. c. period.
Pearls and jade and coral and other un-
polished mineral substances had to content
them, and as IL to make good the glitter
of revieres and tiaras, the princes of Chang
On employed artisans to fashion them the
most wonderful gold and silver ornaments,
which In themselves were far more costly
than diamonds.

PARIS, March 4, 1905.
The recent Russian tragedy gave the key
note for much amusement the other night
here In Paris to at least one of it's citizens.
He is having all the fun to himself, how
ever, for a disclosure of his identity would
land him In the hands of the police. The
cause of the mirth, discovered by mid
night pedestrian, proved to be a tin box
with a fuse attached laid at the principal
entrance to the Hotel des Deux Mondes.
The modern Columbus. after gingerly put
ting his foot on the black, tapelike wick
which protruded from the box, to extinguish
any smoldering fire. shifted any further re-
sponsiblity TO the shoulders of two ser

arrival looked at the box from a respect

A Brides Trouble.

They were newly married and on
a honeymoon trip. They put up at
a skyscraper hotel. The bridegroom
felt indisposed and the bride said
she would slip out and do little
shopping. In due time she returned
and tripped blithely up to herIroom,
a little awed by the number Of
doors that looked all alike. But. she
was sure of her own and tapped
gently on the panel
I'm back home; let me in" she
whispered.
No answer.
Honey, honey, let me in" she
called again, rapping louder. Still
no answer.
There was silence for several sec
onds; than mans voice, cold and
full of dignity, came from other
side of the door
