CHARACTERISTIC EXPRESSIONS

A photographer gives the follow ing directions to his customers :: 'When a lady sitting for a picture would compose her mouth to bland and serene character she should just before entering the room, say 'broom,' and keep the expression into which the mouth subsidies until the desired effect in the camera Is evil dent If, on the other hand, she wishes to assume a distinguished and somewhat noble bearing, not sug- gestive of sweetness, she should say brush, the result of which is infal- Iible. If she wishes to make her mouth look small, she must say flip but if her mouth is already too small and needs enlarging, she must say 'cabbage.''

 THE BRIDAL VEIL OF LACE.

At the recent wedding of Miss Edith Holt and Dr. J. c. Blood- good in New York, the bride wore two lace scarfs as veils. One of these was of Limerick lace, taken from the collection gathered By her grand mother, Mrs. West of Baltimore, The other was of a thinner lace. This is a very pretty idea to have the veil of some interest other than that of the wedding, but as gener- al thing the dainty tulle veil is much more becoming.

BEST APPETiZERS.

We all know how an appetizer acts, but do we know why: A fa- nous German physician says that hunger is caused by lack of blood in the stomach. That lack acts on a special nerve which is a branch of the nerves of the tongue. Therefore, when a spice or sharp acid is applied to the tongue it stimulates the nerve to action, and those bricks and spurs to appetite are not merely the grati- fcation of cranky ''notions,' but a response to natural demands. It is, therefore, a scientific fact that those foods which bite the tongue, which gives a relish, in short, are the best appetiZers.

RUDDERLESS AiRSHIP.

Mme Poppoya, Russian woman, has invented a rudderless airship, which she has named the annulated dragon because of the peculiar shape of its body. This airship is said to adapt itself naturally to every va viety and strength of wind Per sons who have examined the airship declare that, in spite of it's peculiar appearance, it is a practical sailer.

MAY BECOME A LOST ART.

Do women do as much preserving and pickle making as in former years? is matter of interest, and it is probable that they do not In the years, when it was not possible to get tropical fruit in the winter it was necessary to preserve and pickle home products. Now it is really not necessary and most physicians agree that fresh fruit is much better than that preserved with so much sugar. Those who have a tendency to get fat should avoid preserves.
