Women Ride Astride.

New Workers have become accus-
toned to seeing women wearing the
divided skirt ride astride through the
bride paths Of Central Park and fol-
low the hounds across country.
Even in conservative old England,
a. appears from a special cable dis
patch to the Herald, women are dis
carding the side-saddle and adopt
Ing the safer and more comfortable
fashion.
Lady Castlereagh, the Duchess of
Westminster and other distinguished
women mentioned in our dispatch
now ride in that style in the famous
Row without attracting special atten-
ton. and it promises to become uni
versal.
The woman's bicycle undoubtedly
had much to do with producing the
change.-New York Herald.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is

Learn to attend strictly to your

Learn to tell story. A well told
story is as welcome as a sunbeam In

Learn the art of saying kind and
encouraging things. especially to the
young.
Learn to avoid all i'll natured re-
marks and everything calculated to
create friction.
Learn to keep your troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to
care for your ills and sorrows.
Learn to stop grumbling. It you
cannot see any good in the world,
keep the bad to yourself.
Learn to hide your aches and pains
under 1 pleasant smile. No one
Mares whether you have the earache.

WISDOM FOR WIVES.

A country vicar was noted for his
excellent fatherly advice to young
couples he welded. He had printed
cards of advice, which he used to
distribute besides giving guidance
verbally. One of the cards was for
the man and the other for the wo'
man. That to the woman ran as
follows:
When you marry him, love him.
After you marry him, study him. :
If he is honest, honor him.
If he is generous, appreciate him.
When he is sad, cheer him.
When he is cross, amuse him.
When he is talkative, listen to
him.
When he is quarrelsome, ignore
him.
If he is slothful, spurn him.
If he is noble, praise him.
If he Is confidential, encourage
him.
II he is secretive, turst him.
If he is jealous, cure him.
II he cares naught for pleasure,
coax him.
If he favors society, accompany
him.
II he does you favor, thank him.
When he deserves it, kiss him.
Let him think how well you under
stand him, but never let him know
that you manage him, says Woman's
Life.

Rife.ShoOting.

It Is not only the muscles Of the
arm which are tested by properly or.
gained rife-shooting. 1t supplies
an excellent exercise for the chest
and lungs. One of the first things
the young rifle-shot has to learn is
how to take deep breath, to fill the
lungs with air, and then to hold the
breath while the rifle is kept abso-
lutely steady and the finger is grad
ually tightening on the trigger. A
glance at any successful rifle-shot
will show you q man with deep
chest and full powers Of breathing.
Any form OF recreation which
trains the muscles of the arm and
exercises the chest and lungs would
seem likely to be beneficial to health;
but If that is not enough, there is
the uneQualled training which rifle
shooting gives to the eye and to the
hand working with the eye. The
writer remembers hearing mus.
kerry instructor boast that he had
heightened not only his own sight.
but the sight of scores of boys whom
he had taught how to use their eyes
in aiming at a target, by two or three
hundred yards, simply by continued
practice at long-distance shooting.
It is astonishing what results can be
obtained in this way by placing a
rifle on a sandbag raised on a tripod
and making the pupil aim as accur.
ately as he can at any distant OBJ.
ject. The eye can be trained. OF
course, equally well, though the
sight will not necessarily be length.

FASHION NOTES.

Furs are charmingly mixed with
velvet and lace.
Lace medallions, mounted on button
moulds decorate some of the dressy
coats and wraps.
A touch Of pink Or yellow in vest
or folds often relieves the soberness
of the otherwise all gray costume.
Fashion struck sensible note when
she set her approval upon the soft
smoke gray that is having such a
run this season.
Fancy black blouses are quite the
vogue, the trimming consisting Of lace
and embroidery or silk folds.

WOmen's Suffrage Tried.

Women vote in New Zealand. Not
nominally, not only for school trus-
tees. nor semi-officially, with fear
and trembling lest it be known, but
regularly and openly and as a mat
ter of course. They have a free and
unlimited womanhood suffrage; they
can vote on every question and for
any candidate at any election, equal
~ with men.
For ten years they have had and
exercised that right, and so far as a
merely human Investigator can dis
cover. they have not wrought any
ruin, lost any womanhood, nor called
down any vengeful wrath from the
heavens.-Charles Edward Russell,

Testing Eggs.

A simple method of finding out
the age Of an egg is by means of the
air space, which is situated towards
the broad end of the shell. If the
egg is held up between the hands be-
fore the light in a dark room, the
air space is very small, but as age in
creases it extends, until, when the
egg is three weeks old, the air space
Is about sixth of the entire egg
space. With practice the age can be
told to within twenty-four hours.

THE MERRY WHISTLER.


You have never met a man VINO
was an inveterate whistler and yet
a thorough scamp.
The whistler usually is a cheerful
being, and when one is cheerful ne
cannot be thinking of bad things.
The cheat. the coward. the black
leg, are not addicted to the open
heart and CHEEKY whistle.
The man who will get up in the
morning and make a fire, keeping
warm with a merry strain Of yam
kee Doodle Boy" hasn't a sour heart
over his task.
The man who makes the conee
and filings out the front door for the
bakery with eel Captain" thrilling
forth in one big whistle, is never
the man of mean propensities, who is
keeping tally on his service, to say,
later to his wife:
II make the fires while you lie
abed."
Have you ever seen man whistle
a restless baby asleep? If not. you
have something to look forward to.
And then when the babe becomes
the small son, have you ever observ-
ed this cheerful father teaching his
craft to little Jimmie?
Through his fingers. and through
his teeth, and then the intricacies
of the liquid double thrill
Thus, when Jimmie gets at the
kindling chopping age, he has &C
quired one of the first principles OF
good and desirable mamie is a
whistler like his dad. and the envy
and emulation of every neighbor boy.
