A man told me the other day that he
did not believe in friendship. that their
was no such thing and tina the first duty
OF a man or woman was to look out for
themselves and let the next person do the
same.
He said: People may claim TO be your
friend. They will pat you on the back and
tell you you're the best ever but don't
you believe them; they'll do you when
you're not looking"
Now, isn't that a gloomy way to look at
the rest of humanity? | think 1t is, and |
told the man SO. Ii | didn't know people
whom 1 could confide in and trust and
whom l knew respected my confidence |
would be a most unhappy creature, and |
believe all human nature is alike on that
point.
Just imagine having to watch your near
est neighbor in business or social life for
fear that he will endeavor to outstrip you.
1t isn't a very happy thought to be sure.
I'm afraid my friend is looking at the
world through blue glasses. and they cer-
tainly do cast a gloom over all nature, for
in this world what Is of greater value than
the friendship Of II true friend. True, we
may have position and a liberal share of
the worlds goods, but isn't 1t true that
these bring us little happiness il we have
not the tender sympathy and kind interest
of our friends in all our enterprises?
We hear people complain about the cold
ness and s%elfishness of the world, but 1t
seems to me that we who are unwilling
to grasp the hand of our neighbor in a
spirit of friendliness are responsible for
this condition If it really does exist.

IN REGARD TO
THE WINTER FURS.

Furs are to be more luxurious than ever.
A first requisite Is that they shall be dress
ed till they are as supple and soft as SILK
or velvet. Then no garment will be made
of any one kind of pelt; ermine and sable,
chinchilla and ermine, and sometimes even
three varieties may be welded into a har-
monious whole. Lace, as rare as possible
and sometimes dyed the color of one of
the furs. will trim many furs, and jewels
viii be set as fastening clasps.
As dress trimming fur will this winter
be more used than ever, bands of it a tx
ing the place of the panne and liberty
formerly used as hems to weigh dow un-
lined skirts. Chincilla will hold its own
the better grade is always w%orn-and one
may safely invest in short-haired black
bear, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
In furs mink will probably be the most
fashionable 1t is perhaps the most hand
some fur known. Its lovely color tones, its
marked stripes and the general richness
and softness and the durability Of the fur
make it one of the most desirable. or
course sable and the rare fox furs are al
ways fashionable, because they are not
handsome, but so expensive that only the
very rich can afford to buy them. Fox
| never lasts long and sable does not pos
sess the variety OF coloring Of mink. Err

to Innings and to trimming purposes.
Caracal garments and those in broadtail
will be smart. Sealskin is being shown,
trimmed with other furs.
Ponyskin will be one OF the smartest OF
the cheaper furs and deserves its place,
for it is handsome to look at, flexible and
graceful in its folds and fit, is durable and
far from being clumsy as fur can be.
Winter hats will be made to match fur
coats or the fur trimming of the dress, a
new model hat being OF the Lamballe
shape, in mink, set well up at one side on
its bandeau, and with no trimming but the
broad brown velvet strings that are
threaded through the crown and knotted
behind the neck, whence they fall to the
waist. Little pale pink roses are arranged
at intervals on these ribbons, so that they
make a fower-decked frame for the face.
Hats in general will be as large as ever.
The new felts suggest lamp shades and
the plumes and waving feathery stuffs
that lavishly adorn them would puzzle the
most up-to-date naturalist. The great
charm OF these exaggerated chapeaux Is
the delicately tinted lining OF the trim. IT
we'll chosen. a most becoming light Is thus
thrown on the face and a delightful set
ting obtained for the waves of shining hair
it is de rigueur to possess at present. It
lis because of the necessity Of filing out
these huge brlms that the hair dressing
becomes every day more eccentric, the neat
: uplifted couture having quite Disappeared.

I'd box his ears good and hard If he
spoke to me as he speaks to his
mother" a strong-minded spinster was
heard to say of a little boy, a member
of the household where she had been
visiting.
HE is impudent and saucy,' she con-
tinued, "and l think it a shame to
permit a child to grow up like that"
After some questioning we learned
that like that" meant that the little
chap in question was not only rude to
his mother, but to everyone else when
the notion struck him. Not only did
his little companions suffer from his
outbursts of temper, but his mothers
guests and his elders as well.

hostess our friend said, ''for she en-
~tertained me splendidly, but I don't
approve of her method of rearing her

ABOUT DRAPING Wells.

Wells are of so great Importance his sea-
son that they very largely make or mar
the ensemble of a costume; more thar
that, they seriously affect the youthfulness
of the face.
Particularly is this true of the bordered
veil, which accentuates the line from the
chin to the back of the couture or hat.
and, according as this line is raised or low
cred to a prope degree, which varies with
different faces, just SO much Is the con-
tour affected, says Dress. In fact. It Is an
art in itself to be able to adjust the veil
to the best possible advantage, and one
we'll worth cultivating.

WASHING vELVETS.

Delicate velvet can be washed in tepiC
soapsuds. 1t must not be rubbed, Bit
Gently pressed in the water, thoroughly
rinsed and dried quickly, either in the sun
or wind, Heat an iron, turn it upside
down, cover with a wet cloth and steam
the velvet by placing he wrong side of
the material OF the wet cloth. If a second
person can assist, the velvet will be %neatec,
since some one should brush the velvet
while it is steaming. The work must be
lone rapidly or 1t will be a failure.

A Possible solution.

How can such things be-" you ask.
"Why is there such a difference in
.children?"
The difference isn't so much in the
children as the training they receive.
If little people are rude and ill-tem-
pered it shows that they have been
pampered and spoiled, and that sort
of treatment is bad for any child, or
grown person, for that matter.
When a child shows such a DISPOSE
ton it doesn't reflect much credit on
the parents, particularly the mother,
for she is supposed to have the great
est influence over the little ones. Chill
dren can be trained to do right as well
as wrong, and it is the duty of every
mother to place her standard of home
training so high that 1t will be above
criticism. MOLLIE.

where the family consists Of three
little boys and their parents. These
little lads, though the youngest is
hardly any more than a fodder, are
taught what respect for their elders
means. and hat they must have proper
consideration for the rights of each
other. Quarreling among themselves
is a thing unheard of, and the homage
and love they show their mother is
something that all of mothers friends
comment upon. AS a result this small
squad of future voters get through the
day much more smoothly and happily
than, doubtless, the average group Of
''wee men," and the little mother is
spared the unspeakable unpleasantness
of scolding from dawn to dark.
