New Workers. have taken to the
paper handkerchief. and from indica-
tons the flimsy substitute is here to
stay. The paper handkerchief comes
from Japan. where for centuries it has
been in use. 1t is soft and thick and
strong and looks like silk. 1t costs
a cent. less than the cost of lsunder-
ing a linen handkerchief. 1t is de-
stroyed after having been used. and
1t Is pointed out that for sanitary rea-
sons. If for no other. it Is far superior
to the old article.
Four charming young ladies came

Smiths. AS soon as the Willis Joy

friends especially are glad to welcome
her back and demonstrated it by at
once electing her the president of the
Thursday Musicale club. an Office she
held with SO much credit for years be-
fore moving from here.
Carelessness in dress will spoil the
most charming of women. It is sell
dom one sees this failing in a good
actress though. But when Alberta
Gallitan, the southern actress, was
here In cousin Kate" Tuesday even
ing, that was the one criticism of her.
She Is extremely careless as to ap-
parel and it was certainly demonstrat-
ed Tuesday evening for the charm of
what is charming play was almost
spoiled by that failing. She is good
acress and charming woman. but
her makeup could be greatly improv-
ed. Not of her face, because that is
one charm; she does not make up her
face when on the stage at all. but her
form, well-we heard one observing
man behind us say her hip pads were
not on straight and we know her skirt
was an ill-ftting one and sagged in
the back-and what Is more deplorable
on the stage or of?
