HEALTH AND BEAUTY

This is the diet that makes for rosi-
ness of cheeks: Plenty of milk, eggs,
ripe fruit, green stuffs, cream and milk
pudding. No smoked or sailed meat or
smoked or sailed fish. Very little tea,
coffee, cake, sugar or sweet stuff. Good
beef or mutton, underdone, at one meal
daily. A meal Of bread and butter and
tea is at direct enmity with the effect
sought. +:
Few people can consume milk large
ly without growing distaste. But
one can take it in other ways. Thus
one may eat butter literally. There is
no more nutrient fat used at table
Then there is cheese, which is very rich
in proteid material. Cream may be
used in addition to many articles of
food, Lastly is skim milk, which, so
far from being valueless, offers more
value for its price than does any othe,
food in common use.
All who have studied the human hail
are agreed that to wet it, as is done in
bath, and that daily, results in weak
ening Of it's structure. On the other
hand, it must not be assumed that wa
ter is in itself an enemy Of the hair
On the contrary, it is hair food. The
question concerns quantity. TO dip 6

If you get up bilious try the no-sup

give up all supper and soon you vii
wake every morning determined to hav.
a breakfast even if you have to fgh
for it. That is the sort Of feeling oy,

or otherwise upset on Monday morning
That is because of the high supper O
the extra good dinner or the unaccus
toned inaction Of the previous day.

STORY OF sTRoNG.ARM ToUsLEY

We will again speak of school life if
our readers will permit, otherwise we
will hold our "piece.' The last word
has not been to school. The old Wash
ington school was located in the bust
ness district Of Minneapolis. It was
called the Washington school because
it was located near Washington avenue,
which was named after George; some
time after him. One day at recess the
fire whistle emptied out the. alarm of
fire. I and another boy-we were boys
at the time-hastily left the. school
grounds and ran to the fire. It proved
to be in North Minneapolis and we did
not get back to school until the next
day. After the morning exercises the
teacher called our names and informed
us that we would find the superinten-
dent waiting for us in his office in the
basement. The superintendent 8, name
was Tousley and was man with fixed
ideas. He took bath every morning
in beef, iron and wine and he had q
look cross enough to break down the
pasture fence and let the bull out and
the bull would 60 the other way at that.
We tried to be pleasant in greeting Mr..
Tousley, but he paid little attention to
our civil manners and motioned us to

It is a man. who says they are.

It is man who says they are.
Women. he says, never like the place
they live in, the clothes they have, the
circumstances wherein it has pleased
an inscrutable Providence to place
them, nor any of the things that befall
them.
"Women," he says, care never
happy, unless they are unhappy about
something; never contented unless they
can be disconnected. The best poor
fellow can do is to do the best he
can for them, and then let 'em alone.
It s impossible to make them happy
Awful as this Indictment sounds, any
one who knows womankind knows that
there is truth in it.
There are any number of feminines
who simply can't be made happy, do
what you, can for them. Dear, good
creatures they are, too, who wouldn It
harm fly, and who-would resent the
insinuation that they are not devoted
ly attached to their husbands and fam
lilies.
If they live in town they want to
live in the country. If they live in
the country they resent the presence of
mosquitoes and the absence of trolley
cars.
If Johnnie has blue eyes, they would
much have preferred brown. If they
bought black silk gown they wish

And so on, to the end Of the chapter.
It's always the thing they haven It
got that they want; the place they are
not that they want to be; the thing
they did that they wish they hadn Il
! done. ~ ~.
Such women simply must have a
grievance. Take it away, and they II
be wretched. The wise man spoke truth
when he said that to be really happy
they must be miserable.
To try to make happiness for an in
dividua1 Of this type is pretty near q
hopeless task. Nobody can do it.
AS matter of fact, the happiness OF
unhappiness of any woman lies entirely
in her own hands, and the idea that
| anybody else can create it for her is al
a mistake.
No happiness is possible for any one
who is dependent upon somebody else
to make her happy. Half the secret
j of the discomfort of womankind is due
to the prevalence of the idea that some
man is to make them happy.

is seven gore, with a pleat on and be-
tween each one, and will add two or
three bias folds on the bottom to come
to the front gore. I am feet Z inches
tall, bust "a, waist "a, and hips So.
Have black hair, brown eyes and dark
complexion, rather ford. Would like
it trimmed in dark red, if you think
advisable. Thanking you in advance
and waiting an early reply. I remain,

I should have a full lower portion 81
bodice showing a couple of horizontal
tucks above the waist line, the fulness
taken into red velvet belt, and the
top gathered to round yoke of red
velvet outlined with bias folds of the

above elbow to match waist and ending
them in turn-back cuffs covered with
folds, adding long cuffs of red velvet.
Add a little cream lace at throat and
