Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change a
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, faint echo
of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

THE TRANSIT PROBLEM.
A New York City Undertaking Costing
Twice as Much as the Panama Canal.

A New York City Undertaking Costing
Twice as Much as the Panama Canal.
The July American Magazine contains
an article on SManhattan: an Island
Outgrown," which is the best descrip-
ton yet made of the extraordinary
transportation Improvements now be-
ing made in and abont New York City.
The transit problem in New York City
to-day has become the most difficult,
complicated and vexatious which faces
any American city; and twice as much
money is being spent to solve it as is
being expended on the construction of
the Panama Canal. That trans oceanic
ditch will cost 5000, 900.
''The Pennsylvania Railroad alone is
rivers and build terminal in Manhat-
tan. The McAdoo tubes under the North
Tor Hudson River will cost $75, 900, 900
more. The New York Central Railroad
is going to erect an enormous new ter
minal station and bring all its trains in
to the city by electric power. The Bel
mont tubes under the East River to
Long Island City and the city subway
tubes from the Battery to Brooklyn rep
resent the expenditure of millions more.
And new subways under the East River
and north through the city itself are
being planned, while new bridge is
under way across Blackwell's Island.
The creative artists of the twentieth
century are undoubtedly the engineers
the creative instinct is not dead; it is
merely working in another medium;
and New York City will soon contain
one Of the greatest achievements, an
achievement even more radical than at
first glance it appears, for it is made
possible by electricity and represents
for the first time on thorough going
scale the change in motive power on
railroads from the steam locomotives of
the past seventy years to the electrical
ly driven train. In short time-prob-
ably three years at most-four railroad
systems will bring their enormous traf-
fic into the very heart of Manhattan L.
land under rivers and streets and ave-
nues, without puff of smoke or a
sound of steam. Underground, IN ST.
lence and clean air, they will come and
SO depart again, while the Hudson Riv-
er steamers pass over the Washington
Express and the carriages on Park Ave
nue. roll above the Bay State Limited.
The achievement is stupendous and
unique" .

HOW TO KILL THE SLUGS.
On Cherry. Plum and Pear Trees
and Rose Bushes.

The so-callcd slugs that skeletonize
the leaves of the above named plants
during the summer are all compara'
lively easy to destroy.
As the slugs devour the surface It's
sue of the leaves in each case, they
may be killed by a thorough appica'
tiun of any arsenical poisOns, such as
Paris green, London purple, or arsen-
ate of lead. Upon low plants, it is
equally as well to mix the dry puisons
in twenty times their own weight OF
common -four and dust them upon
the plants through cheese cloth sack
held In the hand.
In case of the fruits, especially
cherries, where it Is not safe to use
the above poisons, white hellebore
powder may be used instead. If ap'
piled as a spray, put ounces of the
powder in one gallon of water; as a
dust, it may be used without dilution
In a cheeseclotlI sack and Light ap.
plication made. The best time to ap'
ply the hellebore is towards evening
The slugs can be removed from cher
ry, pear and plum trees by thoroughly
Sitting fine road dust, or freshly
Stacked lime over the foliage in the
middle of u warm day, when the
slugs are upon Che upper side of the
leaves.
Begin In time. be thorough, and do
not let slugs destroy your trees or
roses. G. p. Gillette.

WATERS ART KNOWLEDGE.
Anecdote Recalled by the Death of ST
Gaudens, the Sculptor.

Gaudens, the Sculptor.
The recent death of Augustus st.
Gaudens recalls story which ap-
peared in German paper some years
ago. A party of Americans. so went
the story, We're lingering over the last
course of long dinner at the Schwei-
zerhof, in Lucerne, one evening, dis
cuSsing the works of art which they had
seen in Italy. The conversation drift
ed TO art in America, the sculptors of
note and their creations. The works
of st. Gaudens were enumerated and
one of the party said, 1T seems to me
you have missed one" and then every
body's thinking cap was adjusted, but,
while several members of the company
agreed that there was q st. Gaudens
in America somewhere which had not
been mentioned, no one could name it.
After the Americans had called them
selves foolish and $50 stupid" the
waiter, who had listened, as walters
do, at respectful distance and with
stony face, went step nearer and in
good English said:
BEG pardon, gentlemen; worked at
a hotel near Madison square, in New
York, several years. Possibly you are
trying to think of the Farragut monu-
ment." He was right. THAT waiter
the story teller said, "was the son of
a large hotel owner. a college man,
and probably knew as much about art
as the men whom he served with food
and information
