Ways of increasing her height are
a constant source of thought to the
short woman. To look her tallest at
all times she should remember some
simple general rules.
High heels are a mistake; the cut
and length of the skirt are the most
important.
The best materials to give height are
either plain ones or those with a tiny
stripe running lengthwise. Full skirts
and baggy sleeves are fatal to the
short woman.
A very small hat is mistake, Civ

large one is no better, making the

walks and stands is her greatest adj
vantage or disadvantage. 1t is posi-
BILE for even a little woman to be SO
upright and hold her head so prettily
that she will appear quite tall without
the least suggestion of stiffness. A
well-carried head will give an add
tional two inches to the height

frocks are still simple blouse waists
gathered into close-fitted moderate Cir
dies with the pretty 1880 berthas drap-
ing the shoulders and falling wide over

these frOcks follow the prevailing
mode wide and round, gathered or
plated at the waist and trimmed with
ruffies or flounces about the lower half.

A woman who has taken twenty five
pounds from her weight in four
months and increased her height three
quarters Of an inch meanwhile writes
how it was accomplished:
1.-The principal exercise consisted In
lying face down on the bed, with
hands at the side, end stretching out
tne feet until the insteps rest on the
bed Besides increasing the height,
this exercise does away with double
chin, takes off feshiness at the back
Of the neck and decreases the abdo-
men. You should go to sleep in this
position, and every time you wake I'd
during the night and find yourself ly-
ing in an old, unhealthy way you
must turn over and strengthen yourself
right out again."
Cooked fruit forms a large part of
her diet. For breakfast, couple of
chops, two eggs and the crust Of some
rolls, and then, last, three or four
kinds Of fruit. Fruit is not good to
begin a breakfast on. Avoid tea and
coffee. Water taken in great quantity,
but never with your food.

A HOUSE INA DAY.

>~~SS~"~'S><S~~~~~~
1t may be that Joy in a kindly deed,
recorded in the New York Sun, put
speed into the hands Of the workmen
and FASTENED it's accomplishment.
Whatever the motive power, however,
the fact was q remarkable one.
Mr.. Rose, an Indianapolis farmer,
bought material for a house, and then
discovered that for lack Of means he
could not go on with 1t. The stuff lay
on the ground for months, when one
day a generous thought came into the
mind Of contracting builder. He
called his men round him and asked
for volunteers to build the Rose cot
tage, telling them he would undertake
to do it within one day If they would
contribute their work. Twenty-six
carpenters, masons and painters
agreed, on the condition that Mr.. Rose
would furnish chicken dinner, and
time was fixed for all to report at
the site Of the proposed building.
livery man appeared on time, and
all went at once to work. Each worker
was assigned to a particular part, and
the house began to go up with a rush.
When noon came the framework was
all up, and the chimney was started.
Then came dinner. Mrs. Rose had
fried two dozen chickens. There were
ten loaves Of bread, four dozen ears OF
boiled corn and nearly a bushel OF
mashed potatoes. The dessert consist
ed of cherry cobbler and various kinds
Of pie. The contractor had to call OFF
his men for fear they would eat so
much they would not be able to finish
the job.
|, The hurry began again. Before tie
roof was on the plasterers were al
work. and at exactly six O'Clock the
cottage was finished, all but the sec
ond coat Of paint and the skim plaster
neither Of which could be put on be-
fore the first coat dried. Everything
else, even to putting on the locks and
hinges, was done before the men were
called of, and done well.
The contractor complimented his mer
when the job was complete. He said
that although he had done hurry
work before, he had never known \
house to be begun and completed in a
day. The cottage contains five well
lighted rooms and large attic. The
work is done thoroughly, and the con.
tractor declares that he could have
finished 1t in an hour earlier had no!
the men eaten so much dinner.

Don't take stimulant; just breathe.

should be beneficial, says the Phila-

Nov, if you are working with a
piece of machinery, say a typewriter,
what do you do to make it run more
smoothly? You don't put lot more
oil on it and gum and clog it all up.
You clean it first. You can best clean
the blood by breathing. The blood
passes through the lungs, and it needs
and expects to find plenty Of fresh air
with oxygen In 1t. If it can't find per-
fectly fresh air it needs more air
which is not perfectly fresh. 1t needs
to be cleaned by contact with rhe air.
"Once in a while hold the lungs full
Of breath as long as you can without
expulsion. In doing this you IRE SIM
ply cleaning the machine. You are
cleaning the blood. At the same time
you are giving that little flip to the
action of the heart and the nervous
system which you thought you were
giving when you took the cocktail. Iu
the latter case you didn't clean the
machine. You simply ran it little
faster and gummed it up little more.
You can get the same results, the same
feeling of exhilaration and Of accom-
plishment, without taking the cock
tail, and at the same, time the machine
will steadily improve in its running
quality. Breathe the best air You car,
get and plenty Of it. It is as necessary
as food. The heart and lungs act In
voluntarily. In hurried business life
they become too involuntary. In that
case don't take cocktail, Just
breathe"

Tiny little hemmed or pinked-out

ing the embroidered ruffies.
The skirt is cut in Gull circle (dou-

this, and dart-shaped tucks make a
clever fullness over the hips Rows
Of puffed shirring head the little foot
flounces, and an insertion Of chiffon
above this is circled with a broad

The sleeves are a series Of ruff1es
matching those Of the corsage, and a
draping Of Dresden ribbon on the fit
ted lining makes the pointed sash that
ends with long loops and knotted
streamers in the back.

A Spring Hat.

Cutely turned up across the front
is the spring hat of bronze-colored
"crin" or horseshoe braids The crown
is softly indented ON top. The brim
is broad enough to be quite high when
sheerly turned up in front, and gives
the effect of triangular hat at sides
and back. Folded bands of rich
bronze-colored velvet, with five
looped bow of the same, laid in front
on upturned brim and resting almost
on the hair, constitute the trimming.
One superb pale rose-covered ostrich
plume almost encircles the hat. 1t
starts at the back and continues
around the crown, but at the left side
it curls over the brim, and hangs
down toward the back.

We turn'd into the lane and rac'd
down it. For my part, swore to drown
myself in Avon rather than let those
troopers retake me. / heard their out
cries about the house behind us as we
stumbled over the frozen rubbish heaps
with which the lane was bestrewn.
What's our direction?" painted L,
catching Delia's hand TO help her along.
ITO the left now-for the river"
We struck into a broader street,
whereof one side was wholly lind with
warehouses. And here, to our dismay,
we heard shouts behind and the noise OF
feet running.
About half way down the street spied
a gateway standing ajar and pulpd De-
liza aside into a courtyard litter'd with
barrels and timbers, and across it to a
black empty barn Of place, where q
fight of wooden steps glimmer'd, that led
to an upper story. We climb'd these
stairs at a run.
The loft was piled high with great
bales of wool, IS I found by the touch.
and their odor enough to satisfy an army.
Nevertheless, 1 was cropping about for a
place to hide, when Della touched me by
the arm and pointed.
Looking, deserted in the gloom a tall
quadrilateral Of purple, not FIVE steps
away, with a speck Of light shining near
the top of it, and three dark streaks run
ming down the middle, whereof one was
much thicker than the rest. Twas an
open doorway; the speck, star framed
within it; the broad streak, a ships
mast reaching up; and the lesser ones
two ends of a rope, working over a pull
ley above my head, and used for lowering
the bales of wool on shipboard.
Advancing, 1 stood on the sill and look
ed down. On the black water, twenty
feet below, lay a three-masted trader,
close against the warehouse. My toes
stuck out over her deck almost.
At first glance could see no sign Of
life OH board, but presently was aware
of a dark figure leaning over the bull
warks. He was quite motionless. His
back was toward us, blotted against the
black shadow, and the man engaged only,
1t seemed, in watching the bright splash
Of light flung by the ships lantern on the
water beneath him.
/ resolved to throw myself on the mer-
cy OF this silent figure, and put out a
hand to test the rope. One end Of 1t was
fixed to a bale of wool that lay. as it
had been lowered, on the deck. Flinging
myself on the other. found it sink gent
ly from the pulley, as the weight below
moved slowly upward, and sinking with
1t, I held on till my feet touched the
deck Still the figure in the bows was
motionless.
1 paid out my end Of the rope softly.
lowering back the bale of wool, and as
soon as 1t rested again on deck signaled
10 Della to let herself down. She did
80. IS she alighted and stood beside me
our hands bungled. The rope slipped up
quickly. letting down the bale with a
run.
We caught at the rope and stopped it
just in time, but the pulley above creak-
ed vociferously. turned my head. The
man in the bows had not moved.
