CLEARED PATHWAY FOR GIRLS.
vermonter Quick to Realize Humor OF
Situation.

John Davis, tall, lean Vermonter.
had a market at Burlington thirty
years ago. He was genial fellow,
and not in the least to blame for hav-
ing an extremely long nose attached
to his thin face. He was very much
accustomed to having strangers look
at him wonderingly and smilingly on
account of his nose.
One summer morning as he was ar
ranging goods outside of his market
door a pair of Boston girls CHANGED
to be walking that way, and as they
noticed this human wonder they
paused to crafty their curiosity, with
smiling faces.
Davis quietly took in the situation,
and, placing his finger on his nose
pushed it way round on MS lean
cheek as he said: Nov, ladies, can
you paas?"

Fashion Notes.

Veils-Blue yelling is a bad
color, almost as bad as green, for
ihe average complexion. Red
yelling has long since disappear
ed, as it should have done;
brown, when suitable to the
complexion, hair and eyes, is
good, but beware Of the "Off"
shades; try it on the hand and
see if it suits your complexion !;
the pure yellow-brown is said to
prevent freckles, but the red
browns are more generally be-
coming. The lace wells should
be but family figured; large de-
signs and thick embroidery is in
very bad taste, and will dis6gnre
the prettiest woman. Most of
of women should never attempt
to wear colored yelling over the
face; white, with very small
dots, or gray, with black or white
dots, or all black, with becoming

Apostle and Epistle.

A man, riding through the
mountains of Tennessee stopped
one evening to water his horse
before a little cabin, outside of

of piccannies playing near by.

An Arkansas Hen Stoty.

Senator Butt of the Arkansas
Senate had just finished a little
tale about feeding morphin y to a
pointer pup and watching him
dream, when according to the
Memphis Commercial Appeal
Representative De Rossit said ::
. "Senator, your dog reminds
me of my hen. Needing quinine

BILE, are all in good taste.
Sleeves-The display of bare
land not always pretty arms in
all sorts of public places, with
out a long glove or other cover
ing, is out of place. Short
sleeves are not the height of
good sense for winter walking
suits, even though they were
"all the rage" last year; but
they are very becoming to wo-
men for house wear, and there is
little indication that house and
even gowns will take on long
sleeves for another season at
least. The designers of fashions
have probably prepared to push
the vogue of long sleeves, but
the danes who lead the fashions
will finally decide the matter.
Many of the new waists are
nude with detachable sleeves
that is, the sleeve proper iselbow
length, but a separate under
sleeve comes with it, which may
be easily attached to it. The
elbow sleeve is generally finish
ed with frill under which a row
of tiny hooks are sewed; these
fasten to the eyes which are
sewed to the top of the under
sleeve.
Buttons continue to be favor
lite trimming, but the pearl or
brass buttons so much worn the
past year are set aside for those
covered with the material Of the
fabric or of its trimming. Vel
vet is used for collars, cuffs,
straps and buttons, or applied in
bands running around the skirt,
as we'll as in designs running up
from a broad base. Girls of four.
teen years and up are wearing
the princess models in separa te
costumes and skirts.

Two Types,

The Pessimist and the Opti-
mist are two types of men that
have existed almost from the
days of "man'sn disobedience,
and the fruit of that forbidden
tree whose mortal taste brought
death into the world and all our
woe.n 1t is the nature of the
Pessimist to see only evil in the
present and future, and to la
lament the departed goodness
and glory of the past. He sees
only the worst in men, and even
when the sun shines he looks for
the shadows beyond it. The Ma
tion is swiftly speeding to its
doom, and the future is pregnant
with disaster and destruction. If
the country is prosperous and
gaining in wealth it is an evil
dence of decay. Its very strength
is its weakness and its opulence
is a crime. He would arrest pro-
gress with legislation, and he
would chain endeavor with law.
He sees only dishonesty and in
competency in public men, and
in human nature only sin and
crime.
The Optimist is more of
philosopher. He looks aloft
where the blue sky arches. He
has faith in his country. in its
growth and greatness and desti-
my. He has confidence and cour-
age. His heart is brave and full
of hope. He has faith in his fell
low man, charity for the weak,
and sympathy for the distressed.
He lends a hand, when occasion
offers, and speaks a cheering
! word when it is time. He hides
his scars, for all mortals have
them, and if things go not we'll
with him, he keeps striving and
hopes for a better day. He be-
lieves the world is growing bet
ter, that the human race is ad.
vancing, that love and faith and
hope and charity and sympathy
are more potential in the equity
of life than envy, hate or jeal'
ousy, ambition, anger or selfish
ness.
Perhaps the Pessimist has his
uses. He may serve to warn, tc
restrain, to keep awake, to make
vigilant those who might be lull
ed to sleep by prosperity or indi
vidual success, or led into cours
es that lead to decay. But tn,
Optimist is the more valuable o
the two, more lovable, more ra
tional, of more value to humani
ty and to the Nation. Withou
him the star Of hope would fad
into eternal night and the dole
rous predictions of that prophe
Of evil, the Pessimist, woul
come true. 1t is the Optimis
who produces prosperity in peac
and who fights the Nations bat
ties in time of war, because h
has faith in himself and in hi
country at all times and unde
all conditions.
