ModestY Versus MoneY.

When the wind was in It's most ca
PRECIOUS mood on a particularly
"blowy" day last summer, q woman
at that mysterious age when her
friends speak OF her as well pre-
served made a dash around the cor
ner OF the treaCherous fiatiron build
ing. Her gown was lightest Of sum-
mer muslins, and on her head she
wore marvellous creation of Cauze
and flowers. Every vagabond breeze
in that vicinity instantly saw an op-
portunity to do stunts.
Sooner than it takes to tell il. the
summer muslin was describing the
most alarming aerial flights. But its
owner. a hand on either side of her
hat, kept on as stubbornly as though
such a display of open-work hosiery
was an everyday affair.
Madame cried another woman.
rushing up to her, holding her own
draperies in q tight embrace, you are
probably not aware of ii. but your
skirts are above your knees"
Il don't care" retorted the other
never moving a finger from the flower
laden bonnet. i've had those legs
for forty-eight years and can't lose
them. but I've just bought this hat
and paid SIS for II, and l don't mean
to let it get away"

Be Cheerful.

Be cheerful. 1t is trite advice to tel
women to take each day as 1t comes
to avoid remorse over what is done
and forebodings over what is to come
but it is no less valuable advice
Nervous prostration is seldom the re-
suit of present trouble or work, but of
work and trouble anticipated. Mental
exhaustion comes to those who look
ahead and climb mountains before
they arrive at them. Resolutely build
q wall about today and live within
the Enclosure. The past may have
been hard, sad or wrong. 1t is over.
The future may be like the past, but
the woman who worries about il may
not live to meet it, If she does she
will bear it. The only thing with
which she should concern herself is
today, its sunshine, its air, its friend
its frolics. its wholesome work, and
perhaps It's necessary sorrow
There Is a selfshness even in graft
tude when it is too profuse.

JOY RULES THE WORLD.

The world is sweet, and fair, and
bright,
And Joy aboundet'l everywhere,
The glorious stars crown every night.
And thro' the dark of ev'ry care
Above us shineth heavens light
If from the cradle to the grave
We reckon all our days and hours
We sure will find they give and gave
Much less OF thorns and more Of flow
ers:
And tho some tears must ever lave
The path we tread, upon them all
TIE light of smiles forever lies,
As DER the rains, from clouds that fall.
The sun shines sweeter in the skies
Life holdeth more Of sweet than gall
For ev'ry one; no matter who
Or what their lot-or high or low:
All hearts have clouds-but heavens
blue
Wraps robes Of bright around each
woe:
And this is truest Of the true:
That Joy is stronger here than grief.
Fills more of life, far more of years,
And makes the reign of sorrow brief;
Gives more of smiles for less of tears.
JOY is life's tree-grief but is leaf

Learn to Let Go.

One Of the most practical and abso-
lutely truthful bits Of philosophy that
has appeared in a long time was re-
Gently published in Medical Talk on the
wisdom of letting CO." Says the
writer: II you want to be healthy NOR
ally, mentally and PHYSICAL, just LEI
90. Let go of the little bothers OF
everyday life, the irritations and the
petty veXations that cross your path
daily. Don't take them up and nurse
them, pet them and brood over them.
They are not worth while. Let them go.
That little hurt that you got from a
friend; perhaps It wasn't Intended, per-
haps it was: never mind, let it go. Re-
fuse to think about it. Let go of that
feeling OF hatred you have for another,
the jealousy, the envy. the malice, let
90 all such thoughts. Sweep them out
IF your mind. and you viii be surprised
what a cleaning up and rejuvenating
effect st viii have upon you, both phys
ically and mentally. Let them all go:
you house them at deadly risk.
But the big troubles, the bitter dis
appointments, the deep wrongs and
heartbreaking sorrows, the tragedies of
life: what about them? Why. Just let
them go, too. Drop them, softly maybe,
but surely. Put away all regret and
bitterness and let sorrow be only a
softening influence. Yes, let them go,
TOO, and make the most Of the future
Then that little pet ailInent that you
nave been hanging on to and talking
about. let il go. it viii be a good rid
dance You have treated it royalty,
but abandon 1t; let it go. Talk about
health, instead. and health will come.
Quit nursing that pet ailment and let
ii go.
II is not SO hard after once you get
used to the habit Of it--letting go Of
these things. You win find it such an
easy way to get rid of the things that
may mar and embitteT life that you
will enjoy letting them go. You will
find the world such a beautiful place.
You will find it beautiful because you
will be free to enjoy it-free in mind
and body. Learn to let go. AS you
value health Of body and peace Of mind.
let go-just simply let go.-The It'd
ings.

Manners.

Writing upon good manners. Elmer
sen remarked: Manners are the
happy ways of doing things, each one
stroke of genius or of love now re-
peated and hardened into usage, they
form at last a rich varnish with
which the routine Of life is washed
and its details adorned. If they are
superficial, so are the dewdrops which
give such depth to the morning
meadows. Manners are very commun-
icable; men catch them from each
other No man can resist their in
fiuence. There are certain manners
which are learned in good society of
that force that If a person have them
he or she must be considered and is
everywhere welcome, though without
beauty or wealth or genius. Give a
boy address and accomplishments,
and you give him the mastery Of
palaces and fortunes where he goes.
He has not the trouble Of earning
or Of owning them; they solicit him
to enter and possess"

WON EN-
May Have Nice, Clean Hands if They
Take Proper Care of Them.

(By Eleanor Morris)
There is not a woman born that does
not wish to possess soft, white hands.
By daily care, freshness of the face can
be preserved and blemishes kept away.
But the hands are often neglected. AS
they come in contact with everything
that spoils them the question is, What
can l do to make them soft and white
The best means is absolute idleness,
which only those whom fortune has
smiled on can so indulge. Housekeep-
ing and the many duties it entails will
soon injure the hands. Nevertheless,
nothing need prevent good care being
taken Of the house and pretty hands
kept well. Rubber gloves should be
worn in doing all kinds of work. They
are superior to the cotton gloves, as
they can be worn while using the hands
in water. Before putting on the gloves
rub some of this mixture on the hands
and you will greatly help to whiten
! them: OIL of sweet almonds, six
| ounces; eau de cologne, six ounces;
| powdered soap. one ounce. Washing
! the hands frequently to soften the skin
is absolutely wrong; the washing
should be done only when necessary.
Hence the ACCESSIBILITY of being gloved
at all times, as it certainly keeps the
hands from being soiled and the ne
cessity of using water too often.
How should the hands be washed?
you now ask. and the privilege of ask
ing Is certainly yours. Very cold water
or very hot water are equally bad for
the skin. The water should be tepid
Milk is most excellent, but this is a
luxury that few can enjoy. Soap should
be avoided as much as possible. 1t is
so much better 10 use lemon Juice. It
will whiten without wrinkling or thick
ening the skin. If there are persistent
stains use a little velvet punice. Ink
stains Will yield to oxalic acid or lemon
juice. When you find that soap is alb |
solutely necessary let ii be pure; and |
1t is always a good plan TO get a little |
bran or oatmeal In the water before |
using. Avoid unnecessary rubbing of |
the hands, and always wipe them until |
perfectly dry, and very good effect |
will be gotten if after the washing a !
little cold cream is well rubbed in and |
then powder lightly. If gloves are
worn at night they must be perfectly |
clean; loose white cotton ones are the |
best. Besides sunhurn. redness and |
freckles, which heat the hands as badly |
as they do the face, the hands are sub
ject to another very unpleasant trou-
bic, that of moisture or perspiration of !
the palms. which makes their touch
very disagreeable. There are many |
remedies for this. A little can de |
cologne poured in the palm will often
check Il. II it be very profuse apply I
this lotion several times a day: Rose
water, six ounces; elderflower water.
two ounces; bonzoin, half ounce; tannic
acid, ten grains.

The LAND OF REGRET.

There is city whose gates are wide,
Its pavements pure and clean.
Where shadowy forms fit side by side
ON the road called Might Have
Been"
But folks walk there with their heads
bowed low,
And heavy eyelids wet,
For ev'ry corner is haunted so
In this. The Land of Regret
They meet the ghosts of those other
years
In dreams of memory sweet,
And wet with passionate, frenzied tears
The graves which lie at their feet;
But never. long as their lives shall last,
Can they again forget
Who once have walked with ghosts of
the past
In this, THE Land of Regret.
They feel the touch of a hand grown
still,
Its fingers softly press,
The tender passion of kisses thrill,
Their own in a fond caress.
An, me!-but pity the folks who stray
Where long the sun hath set,
And walk with the ghosts who're laid
away
In this. THE Land cf Regret"

Dear Miss Valeau: Can you give me
some good recipe for dandruff M. j.,
Butte.
For dandruff there is nothing which
can quite equal an egg shampoo. II is
made in his fashion:
Holk of one egg, one pint Of rain
water, one ounce of rosemary spirit
Seat the mixture thoroughly and use
II warm, rubbing well into the scalp.
After IT has dried shampoo the hair
with soap shampoo and warm water.

Dear Miss Valeau: Please tell me
what will help to make harsh hair
soft?-Nellie NJ, Ogden.
For hair that is dry and harsh there
is not better lotion than the formula
given.
Eau de cologne. eight ounces tincture
OF cantharides one ounce: oil of Eng
fish lavender, one-half dram; oil ow
rosemary. one-half dram. Rub this into
the hair at night two or three times a
week until the hair begins to revive
under the treatment. After that do not
use II oftener than once in two weeks.

Beware of the GLOOMY Mood.

Never permit yourself to make any
decision of Importance while you are
in a state of depression. Never com
nit the error of taking a serious steI
while you are measuring life by stand
ards set up in the darkness OF an I'M
happy mind. Such standards are never
true, never just. The estimate you
make OF yourself. of others and of the
world while you are blinded by de-
spondency is q false estimate always
The shapes you see are distorted
shapes. Your vision is at fault. The
only time you are capable of true
judgment is when your sight becomes
clear enough for you to really see
that life is worth living and all's
right with the world

The Eyes.

The eyes can be greatly strength
ened by putting the face down into
a glass or eyecup of water the first
things in the morning and opening
them under water This is difficult
to 90 at first, but if the water for
two or three days be tepid and grad
uaily be made colder by inpercepti-
BILE degrees until it is no shock to put
the face into quite cold water it will
soon become easy. and is invigorating
and refreshing. The eyes should be
wiped after this by passing a soft
towel gently from the outer angle in
ward toward the noce.

sunken you may look for nervous dis

she will criticise herself with the same
severity. She is apt to be sarcastic

that she appears almost brutal. The
best dramatic and literary critics pos
