The chemical blonde has very nearly
disappeared from the enlightened gaze
of men. Once upon a time the yellow
and strawberry beauty was taken at
her own coloring, but now it Is useless
to practice any such deception. Sophis-
ticatlon rules the hour. No masculine
much less feminine, eye can be deceiv-
ed. Her lustrous hair Is woman's
glory and to arrive at 1t she must cling
to the color In which nature turned her

can change the leopard's spots without

How shrunken and pitiful a thing,
how hollow a delusion, is the so-called
success of self-absorbed men and wom-
en-! Like that soldier who, when Ca
lerius sacked the camp of the Persians,
found a bag of shining leather filled
with pearls and carefully preserved the
bag but threw away the contents, they
will find that they have spurned true
riches, real success, to hug to their
hearts things that are false and worth
less. Achievement Is not always sue
cess, while reputed failure often is.
Many poor cripple who struggled I'M
der his handicap, doing his best to
make himself useful, trying to reflect a
little sunshine in the darkness and to
make a home a little brighter, but new
er expecting special recognition here
or hereafter, will be surprised to find
his name written in letters of unfad-
ing light high above that of nations
conqueror. When the genius of true
history unrolls the scroll Of earth's
real benefactors it will be found that
many who stand highest on the list
were hardly recognized during their
lives The name of many a servant
will be above that Of his master.
Mnay humble employe will be found
to have been in reality more successful
than the proprietor Of the establish
ment In which he worked. True hui
man history will be enriched with the
story, not of the useless prince, but of
the unknown boy who remained on the
farm, helped to pay the mortgage and
stifed his own ambition, in order that
the favorite brother might be sent to
college, and thus scored a higher sue
cess than the renowned one for whom
the sacrifice was made. The girl who
smothered her longings for a higher
education, or sacrificed the prospects
for marriage and a home Of her own,
| In order to take care of her aged par
ents. and was never known outside the
little circle of a few friends, will loom
| larger and brighter in the true record
of human forces than the sister who
went to college and became a great au-
thor, musician, artist or actress. Who
can estimate what the world owes to
those who, according to the ordinary
standards of success, have failed? Who
can compute the debt of civilization to
the men and women who, In their eff
forts to make the world little bright
err, a little better place in which tt
love, have been too busy to make mon
ey or to achieve fame?

Speaking of national anthems, Sir
Edward Elgar, the foremost o. En-
glish composers, says Rubbish J" The
rhyme, the sentiment and in most In
stances the music he says, are "vile- !"
His point is that the people have never
called a fine anthem into being as
direct response to their national feel
ings and aspirations. Even II they
have a good tune for their anthem, he
says, 1t is likely to be borrowed from
somebody else. All this may be true
from the musicians standpoint But
1t Is we'll to bear in mind that patriot
ic songs are not written for musicians.
And it is worth while to note that few
patriotic songs of any consequence were
ever written by musicians. 1t may be
true that the national anthems fall
short of being real music. But 1t must
be taken into consideration that they
are also far more than mere music. If
their music formed the sole appeal to
popularity they would not be nation
al songs at all. A skilled musical COM
poser is the last man fit to criticise the
songs Of the heart AS well might a
cultured critic seek to analyEe and con-
denim a peoples love-words and lula
bies. Highly refined language and mu-
sic strictly according to nice rules do
very we'll in transmitting the little elu-
sive emotions and In gliding the COM
monplace; but a great passion imDet-
uously finds it's own direct way Of ex-
preston. The man who has heard the
soldier bands play 1.-The Star Spangled
Banner" at sunset after the last day OF
a battle, while the beaten enemy was
lurking in his trenches only little dis
lance away, will need no musician to
interpret to him the message or to tell
him If it Is melody. Musicians, and
especially musical composers, are the
last to bring themselves to understand
the popular sentiment about music.

Making faces as an aid to beauty is
device for taking out wrinkles. One
who processes to be an authority says
that If a person makes faces at himself
with intelligent discrimination as to
the kind Of faces made, hollow eyes,
sunken cheeks and thin noses can be
caused to disappear, and In their places
will come plumpness and good color.
This may be why angel-faced children
are so charming small boys and girls
make faces enough, either when they
cry or out of pure mischief, to supply
beauty for a whole ladies' seminary.

Increasing use is made Of the knowl-

has resorted to the use Of the thumb

Of its primitive individuality, and re-
moves all doubt Of the authenticity Of

Two hundred college professors have
applied for retirement on pension I'M
der the provisions Of the Carnegie
foundation Of ten million dollars for
their relief. The trustees of the fund
have lately decided that the minimum
pension shall be eight hundred dollars,
but not to exceed four-fifths of the sal
airy paid at time Of retirement, and
that the maximum shall be three thou
sand dollars. AS the annual income
from the fund will be about half a
million dollars, there will be enough to
take care of all the old professors in
the colleges eligible to it's benefits.
This includes all non-sectarian institu-
tons Of college rank. The old age Of
many a worthy man will be made easy
and pleasant by this great benefaction.

"CUTICURA REMEDIES

Gin reply to your letter I write you
