WAYS OF AMERICAN yFc'
Fair Sex In Politics Is So Rare AZ 70
Be Abnormal--NeverT Take Part
in Elections.


American women take little or
no interest in politics, asserts
Mrs. Craigie, III the London Chron-
icle. A woman taking keen In
terest In politics is seally so rare
as to be abnormal. Women play
no part in the elections. 1t shows
how adaptable American women
are that when they marry English
husbands and come here they gen
orally come to the front in cleo
tioneering.
What is the reason? Well, Il
simply is not the custom. All
American men are interested IN
politics, whether they go in for
them much or not, but it simply is
not the custom for women to un-
derstand anything either about
politics or business. American
husbands, you know, never talk to
their wives about professional or
business affairs. And the wives
interest themselves in literary
and musical and artistic matters.
And of course in social matters
the American woman is supreme.
All that mean Is that in Amer
lea, men have to subordinate them
selves entirely to women's inter
ests. don't say the women are
the happier for it-I only say 1t u
the fact.
Personally, l think the French
method, where the wife is told
everything about the money al
fairs, is the best. OF course, an
American woman may be spend
ing money layishly while her hus-
band is in actual difficulties-it
often happens. The men take a
pride in seeing the women magnih-
Gently dressed, and in giving them
Jewels and fine houses. And yet
the American man is not at all os-
tentatious for himself. However,
] must say that il American wo-
men meet with great reyerses OF
fortune they are always very cour-
ageous about them; the habit Of
mind is very philosophic in Amer
lea.
And they are always very bright
and viyacious and extremely adap
table.

WEATHER PLANT A PROPHET
aAbrns Precatorius" Regarded with
Great veneration in India-Angie
of Leaves Is Key.

Almost every magazine has a
small advertisement for a plant
known to botanists as "abrus pre-
catorius," or weather plant. 1t is
a climbing exotic, and is held in
great veneration by the natives Of
India, who say that the state Of
the weather may be told some
time in advance by the position
which the leaves assume. Though
this theory is disputed by some, il
Is held by botanists Of established
reputation as being within the
bounds Of reason. Atmosphere
unquestionably affects the leaves
of flowers and plants and shrubs,
and to close observer this action
may indicate coming changes in
weather which can be correctly
foreshadowed.
One of the great beauties OF the
plant is its small egg shaped seeds
Of bright scarlet tipped with a
black spot. These seeds are very
hard, and for this reason are used
for necklaces and ornamental pur-
poses. Their size is so uniform
that they are used in India as the
standard Of weight, and called
arati." 1t is q recorded fact that
the weight Of the famous Kohs-
moor was first determined by the
aid Of the seeds Of this peculiar
plant. Probably the specific name
"precatorius," meaning prayer.
came from the fact that the seeds
are used by the Buddhists for ros-
aries.

During the shooting season these

MI Lady's face. In fact, the veil can
be said to be the finishing touch to a
perfect toilette and one of the most
becoming accessories of dress, if prop
erly put on. The thick veil is suitable
for outdoor and morning wear. Some
women make the great mistake of
wearing too thick veil with thin
dress and straw hat, or vice versa, a
fine tulle veil with d heavy, dark cloth
dress.
In putting on the veil see that the
middle of your veil is in the middle
of the front of your hat, then. decide
how much fullness you want at. top
and bottom, and draw it straightly
and smoothly from the hat to the
chin, and secure it at the top; but do
not attempt to arrange it there as
yet. Now give all your attention to
the lower edge of the veil, and bring
it around to the back, so that there
are no wrinkles or folds across the
veil anywhere. Gather the two ends
firmly and tie them, tucking them
away neatly. Let the chief strain be
about the lower edge, but never across
the middle of the veil.

The DisgruntIed Novelist.

editor, that Mark Twain will tell in
his autobiography story about IA

This novelist loves praise when he
is sure of it's sincerity. Sincere praise
indeed, is dearer to him than untold
gold. And sometimes, in the hope of
getting little of it, he hides his iden-
tity and talks to people in book stores
and libraries about his own works.
One day he went into Brentano's to
get some novels for summer reading.
The salesman, who didn't know him,
after bringing forth :, Howells latest,
and Conrad's, and Tarkington.s, and
George sMoore's, threw down one OF
the mans own books. ~. s.:

= With: a. straight seam, it is well to
remember. that in fitting q bodice on
an older woman, particularly on the
woman who is inclined to be stout,
the back seam should be kept COM
promisingly straight and the side back
seams should be: curved in at the waist
line. The successful appearance of a
Woman,s figure at this age very large
~ depends on the fit of the back of
the dress, where fairness and length
are required. In the front of bodice
the darts should be extremely shallow.
The newest long cushions and pill
lows are covered with colored silk
or oriental satin, with gathered puff
OF about five inches deep at each end,
but not reaching beyond. The muslin
cover reaches only to the commence
ment of the puff. The effect is very
pretty, especially if the muslin cover,
with ribbon run through Sits, is used.
The ribbon should, of course, be of
the same color as the puffs and vary
from two to. four inches in width, fin
ished off with bow at one corner.
Bed pillows and also soft cushions
frequently have soft sash ribbon
widths run in. The coverlids are
trimmed to correspond.
Dainty lace collars, made of sheer
net, with insertion motifs and edging,
will be smart for afternoon and even
ing wear this year. They are much
more elaborate than those popular
last season and are consequently more
expensive, for the very finest of i'm
ported laces are used on a net back
ground. Fortunately for women who
are unable to buy costly neckwear,
the styles of these new ones are quite
simple and can be easily made at
home, once the net is shaped to fit
the neck of the wearer. The decora-
ton added by appliqueing "val" lace
or even pieces of filet is comparative
ly simple. Attaching, the tabs in front
for a finish, either by cutting away
the net and inserting a handsome
pattern or by adding round or oblong
piece to the bottom of the collar
proper, is the most difficult part Of
the making. Around the edges at top,
bottom and both ends pretty narrow
piece of "var' insertion should be ruff
fed on, so that it gives a small 'ruch-
ing effect that is becoming to most
any shape face. To prevent these
stocks from being flimsy and to hold
them in place and give body to the
sheer materials a small silk-covered
fiat or round piece of featherbone
should be sewed to the top and bot,
tom and attached to the ends

Take big stone crock or key
without a head. Select ctlcumbers
from six to eight inches in length,
wash and wipe carefully. Boil to-
gether three gallons water and two
pounds coarse salt Skim. If any
water has evaporated during the boil
ing add enough more to make the ORR
ginal quantity. Lay the cucumbers
in the bottom Of the jar or key, with
a small red pepper, a bunch of dill
seed in stalk and layer of grape
leaves to cover. Proceed in this way
until the vessel is filled, topping all
with layer of cabbage leaves. On
the very top put good big stone to
keep the pickles under the brine. Pour
in the salt and water still hot, and let
the vessel stand until a quiet fermen-
tation takes place. In two or three
weeks the cucumbers will be transpar-
ent, like amber, with a grateful sub
acid flavor.
