THE TROLLEY AND BEAUTY
A Famous Actress Tells How the In
expensive Trolley Is A Fine
Beautifier.

Amelia Bingham gets up in the
morning and takes a trolley ride. This
is the way she keeps her good looks.
Give me your beauty rules" said a
caller to Miss Bingham. How yo you
keep your spirits, your complexion,
your figure, and your style?"
Miss Bingham was making up in
front of her mirror.
Il keep my complexion and my looks
generally" said she with a hurried
smile, "by that simplest of all things
keeping busy.
The domestic woman ought to be a
great deal better looking than the
actress, because she can devote more
time to herself She can rest when
she wants to rest; she can stay in the
house in bad weather; she can humor
herself and save herself, treat herself
well, and keep her spirits calm.
"With the actress it is different. She
must go out in all kinds of weather;
she must keep bad hours; she must
lose sleep; and she must eat when her
work will allow her to eat. Theoreti-
cally she ought to be a poor looking
specimen. Actually SIG 10 just the i0'

OF AID TO HOSTESS
VARIOUS WAYS IN WHICH TO
ENTERTAIN GUESTS.
A Charming Floral Card Party-A
Jolly Paper Wedding-Some House
hold Hints-Good Scheme for
Church Bazaar.
A Floral Card Party.

A new idea for progressive card
parties given for charity, is to give
prizes of potted plants and keep the
score with flowers, either carnations,
roses, or some blossom that does not
wilt quickly. Invitations are sent for
a floral progressive card party" on
cards cut in the shape of a flower.
Jonquils, tulips, marguerites and roses
lend themselves admirably to the
scheme. To the winners pass vases
containing the score flowers. At the
finish everyone will possess at least
one or more of the fragrant reminders
of their good luck. The ice cream may
be nodded in floral shapes, and the
small cakes ornamented with candy
roses, crystalized violets and ross
leaves may be mixed with the bon
bons. Each guest is supposed to con-
tribute 25 or so cents, whichever sum
is agreed upon, to the charity for
which the party is given.

A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES.
Inducements Held Out by Western
Canada Are Powerful.

A recent number of the Winnipeg
(Manitobal Free Press contains an
excellent article on the prospects in
Western Canada, a portion of which
we are pleased to reproduce.
The agents of the Canadian Gov
ernment, located at different centres
in the States, will be pleased to give
any further information as to rates,
and how to reach these lands.
Just now there is a keener inter-
est than ever before on the part of
the outside world, in regard to the
claims of the Canadian West as a field
of settlement. At no previous time
has there been such rush of immi-
grafton, and the amount of informa-
ton distributed broadcast is unprece-
dentedly great.
"In the majority of the States of
the Union and in Great Britain the
opportunities for home-making and
achieving of even a modest compe-
tence are at the best limited More
over, according to the social and in
dustrial conditions prevalent in those
communities the future holds out no
promise of better things. 1t is not
strange, then, that energetic young
men should turn their eyes to Can
ada's great wheat belt, where every
man can pursue fortune without the
hindrance of any discouraging handi-
cap.
THE inducements held out by West
ern Canada are powerful and made
manifest by the great movement now
in progress. That the prospects are
considerably more than reasonably
certain is borne out by the history of
the country and its residents. The
promise of gain is powerful, but when
added to it there is the prospect of a
corresponding social and civil eleya-
ton, it should prove Irresistible to
young men of a particularly desirable
class for any new country.
"The Canadian West is alive with
opportunities for the young man who
aims at becoming more than a mere
atom in the civil and national fabric.
Some Of the eager young fellows who
arrive on the prairies daily arc des-
tined to become more than merely
prosperous farmers. In the near fu-
ture great municipal and provincial
development will be in the hands OF
the people. The stepping stone to
both financial prosperity and civil
prominence is, and will be, the farm.
For every professional opening there
are hundreds of agricultural openings.
The Canadian prairies are teeming
with opportunities for the honest and
industrious of all classes, but they
are specially inviting to the ambitious
young man who seeks a field for the
energy and ability which he feels in
herent within him. The familiar cry
of Back to the soil!" is more than
vain sounding phrase when applied
to Western Canada"

The Paper Wedding.

The first anniversary of the we'd
ding day brings the jolliest kind of a
celebration, the paper" wedding. Very
pretty tablecloths and napkins come
in paper, so they are just the thing for
the dining-room table. If these are not
obtainable, get plain white paper and
make border Of the lace paper used
for pantry shelves. Use paper flowers
in decorating, and beautiful portieres
and draperies can be made by cut
ting crepe paper into strips and hang
ing it from grills, doorways and over
the lace curtains. The invitations may
be inclosed in tiny japanese lanterns
and delivered by messengers, or they
may be sent by post in the ordinary
way.
If one cares to go to the trouble,
the hostess may wear an entire gown
of paper, and request her guests to do
the same. Provide a supply of paper
swapping caps, which viii afford much
merriment. The ice cream or ice can
be served in paper cases, also the nuts
and bonbons. In fact the resources
of paper are almost endless. For
amusement hats and aprons of paper
could be made, also the cutting of sill
houettes and drawing pictures of
events in the first year of housekeep-
ing experiences, prizes being awarded
according to vote. If desired, the
whole scheme may be carried out la

A correspondent asks for the proper
vegetable to be served with meat.
There is really no cut and dried rule,
but custom dictates the serving of
peas with lamb; roast pork and goose
call for apple sauce; and chicken for
cranberries, either in the form of a
sauce or an ice to be served with the
meat course; game calls for currant
jelly and onions; creamed fish is ac-
companied by fried potatoes or Gro
quettes, While roast beef is served with
most any Of the vegetables, although
tomatoes, corn and caulinower are a
safe combination; roast of veal needs
piquant sauce of some kind, and
beans are a good vegetable to serve, be-
ing very nutritious, quality lacking

Atlantic City, n. J. Especially -
The bridge spanning the Thorough
fare, the body of water separating
Atlantic City from the mainland, was
the scene of a terrible disaster Sun
day afternoon. The 1 o'clock fast
electric train of three cars from Phil
adelphia on the Pennsylvania West
Jersey and Seashore Line, due here
at $50, jumped the track at the draw
on the bridge, and three cars were
plunged into the swift tideway, two
sinking in 80 feet of water The
third car hung partly on an abutment
of the bridge, and the rear end was
suspended long enough to permit
some of the passengers to escape.
Men, women and children in the first
two cars were drowned like rats in a
trap, less than half score escaping
through broken windows.
The list of dead is expected to
reach SO to 60. 1t is estimated that
there were about so to 100 people
on the train The line is operated
by the third-rail system. Survivors
of the tragedy are scattered through
out the city, and it is impossible to
tell exactly how many escaped, but
it is believed about 20 were taken
out by rescuers or managed to
smash their way through broken
windows and to reach the top of the
water where most of them were
picked up by boatmen, who witnessed
