Be Oriqinal.


Do not be afraid of being original,
even eccentric. Be an independent,
self-reliant. new man, not just one
more individual in the world. Do not
be copy of your grandfather, of
your father. or of your neighbor.
That is as foolish as for a violet to
try to be like a rose. or for daisy to
ape a suphower. Nature has given
each peculiar equipment for its pur-
pose. Every man is born to do a GER
tain work in an original way If he
tries to copy some other man, or to
do some other mans work. he will be
an abortion. a misfit, a failure.
Do not initiate even your heroes.
Scores of young clergymen attempted
to make their regulations by imitat-
ing Beecher. They copied his voice
and conversation. and initiated his
gestures and his habits. but they fell
as far short of the great mans power
as the chrome falls short of the mas
terpiece. Where are those hundreds
of imitators now? Not one of them
has ever made any stir in the world

THE MANLY GIRL.

Somebody has once again discovered
what is the matter with our girls. It
is restless age. So many people go
TO and fro in the world proclaiming
whist is the matter with their brothers
and sisters. What great mind made
this last discovery it is difficult to as
certain. But you catch echoes of the
discovery reverberating in all sorts
of places, and from time to time the
discovery itself is shouted OF you either
in a drawing-room or through the phil
osophical columns of ladies' paper.
The discovery is, indeed, rather start
ling. Here it is in its simplest form:
What is the matter with our girls is.
that they have too much common
sense"
Dressed up in various phases you
meet that statement several times a
week just now. Perhaps, it is not so
mao as it looks. Our girls, say their
accusers. put Off the gentle feminine
charm of the past. There is something
in this. 1t is no longer considered un-
womanly not to faint at every oppor-
tunity. The ideal of our girls, their
accusers pathetically complain, is no
longer to be gentle and tender and
clinging. On the contrary, the girl of
to-day can give her papa several
strokes and bad temper on the Inks
she cee hold her own with a cabman
and cnsat customs official as we'll az
most men. Our glrls-their accusers,
be it understood. are still speaking-no
longer worship the family hearth and
hat ,nT, III
rather earn their own living, and let
mamma have another servant. No
longer when they see baby do they
rush to worship it. They begin to talk
about hygienic diet and scientific edu-
cation. Worst of all, last lurid touch
in the melancholy picture. sentiment is
no longer their joy. They laugh at it,.
alas! even more than their brothers.
Thus has the glory of our girls depart
ed. All because of too much common
sense.
1t is no doubt possible to have too
much common sense. The gentleman
who added ''as at present advised'
to the troth-plight, at his marriage,
was suffering from an excess of this
quality. There would be cause for
weeping and wailing if the cult of
common sense among our girls were
likely 10 overwhelm all their emotions
and turn them into capable. but unin-
spring, machines. Common sense is
useful, but it is not exactly the highest
manifestation of the capacities of
woman or man. Our girls, however,
have room for plenty more common
sense before they are in any danger

TIE MORNING TOILET.

1t is fine tribute to a woman when
man was heard TO say: Il always think
of my wife as a morning glory; she
looks so bright and pretty at the break
fast table" 1t pays wives and moth
ers and sons and daughters to be care
impression is likely to be lasting; so
gree every one in the morning looking
fresh, sweet and attractive.
Great truth is contained in the senti-
ments
We make careful thought for the stranger,
And Lhve smiles for the sometimes guest;
But oft for our own
The careless gown,
Though we love our own the best.
In this day and age there is no excuse
for women appearing before their fam
lilies in soiled and unattractive morn
ing costume. Dainty materials may be
had so reasonably. A little lace and
ribbon leads the dainty and sheer ap-
pearance which gives the inviting
touch, and apron and sleeve protectors
insure cleanliness. if preparing break
fast must be taken into consideration.
These may be slipped off during the
meal hour, and self-respect is sus-
tained and also the admiration of the
homes dearest and best.

Cloaks for evening wear will be made
in rich brocades of delicate tints. fur
lined.
Mink. sable, ermine and chinchilla
are the fashionable furs. and the prices
are very high.
The great vogue of the elbow sleeve
promises to continue through the sea-
son, and possibly longer.
The Rlchelieu shoe with small gold
buckles is the correct thing for even
ing wear at dinner or theater.
Very pale blues, pinks and cream are
much in evidence and narrow velvet
ribbon is used for trimmings.
For the younger people who attend
dancing nuns yelling, wool ba-
tiste or albatross make charming little
dresses.
The popularity of the shert sleeve
on reception dresses has brought into
prominence the wearing of bracelets
once again.
White lace and null gowns, the soft
coliennes, crepes and some of the other
soft radium silks continue popular and
are sweetly becoming.
The muffs are enormous, and the
small cravats have given way to ample
stoles, pelerines and shawls. shaped
fiat boas, with long ends.
Dancing frocks are created of sheer
gauze. chiffon taffetas, sprigged chiffon
taffetas. striped silks. and small checks
woven over with fine flower garlands.
No prettier style can be imagined
than a band of black velvet worn
around the wrist which fastens by a
small bow and strass buckle. says
Elizabeth Steadman, in the Pilgrim.
With almost all made wells is worn
a face veil of thinnest pink tulle, put
on over face and hair before the hat
