different sense. For generations women have been engaged in mixing" reluct- ant clements. Flour and butter In their hands have combined into fiaky bis cults; and uncongenial cousins have made up an agreeable family party. A woman at the head of large house hold has need to be a good mixer. She may have three generations under her roof and dependent upon her care. With the children she must be as child; l; with the grandmother she must see the wisdom of age, even beneath its feeble ness; for the wilful son she must min gle ready sympathy and firm control. Woman's service in village or church is often that of welding together obstinate and diverse clements. For her there must be no Democrats or Republicans, no Methodists or Catholics, when she has in hand some measure for the con- mon good. The shade trees in a certain village are a growing memorial to wman who got the Second Adyentists and the Congregationalists together, and set them In pairs to digging the same holes, instead of working on op- posite sides of the street. She WAS a good mixer herself, and like all of that brotherhood, she was the cause that good mixing should be in others. In this world of strifes and misunder- standings and petty frictions, the rarest and dearest of her sex is the woman who goes on her way-a smile on her lips and a gently persuasive spoon in hand-measuring and mingling contrary tastes and dispositions and ambitions, and adding to the combination that subtle one-knows-not-what of person ality which Is the crowning grace of good mixer.

Gray hairs may be tol- erated; often their framing softens the complexion, giving depth and brightness to the eyes that flash beneath them, and many a plain face has been gloritied when crowned by the sheen of silver tresses. The fading tints of a we'll groomed skin are easily concealed by the artifices familiar to every woman, but a wrinkle Is obstinate, a disagree able. aggressive witness, that bears evil dence of age In unpicturesque language, as convincing as the family Bible.

 All sorts of lovely sashes, arranged in many diverse lines, will be a factor of evening gowns, and often a simple evening frock will be decorated with a rich sash, or a brilliant frock toned down by one in black or some dark tone, although as a rule the evening sashes are light and brilliant.

FOOD VALUE OF RAW APPLES.
Their Steady Consumption Assists
 Humanity Toward Longevity.

Many persons fancy that raw apples are indigestible and only endurable ir the early morning. Doubtless the old adage that fruit Is gold in the morning silver In the middle of the day and lead at night Is to some extent answerable fof this (to my way of thinking) erron eous impression.
 Dietitians tell us that ripe, raw ap, pies contain more phosphates in pro portion to their bulk than any other article of food, fish not excepted. 4 recent writer on this point boldly de, clares that in this lies the secret ot healthful longevity. They correct bil. iousness and act as a sedative upon racked nerves and allay insomnia.
 Eat uncooked apples constantly, al though. of course, In moderation, and drink distilled water only, and years vii! be added to your life, while the evidences of age will be long in com. ing"
 This argument is based on the sup position that, as age advances. the de pesits of mineral matter In the system increase, and that aging Is little more than a gradual process of ossifcatlon
 Phosphoric acid contains the least amount of earth salts, and, for that reason. is probably the nearest ap- proach to the elixir of life known to the scientific world.
 If you want to live long, to retain your youth at the same time, and to h. crease your brain tissue, eat plenty of apples, drink plenty of distilled water and eat as little bread as possible.
 Tart apples are far more wholesome than sweet, and all, like potatoes, should be fully ripe when eaten.

 Very pretty negligees of kimono shape are developed of black or white coin spotted foulard silk, with border bands of light blue, emerald green or cerise taffeta, or of wide ribbon divided through the center, the cut edge run on to the edge of the garment and then turned backward, so that the selvage edge will supply finishing on the up- per side. When these negligees are in- tended solely for use in sleeping cars they are provided with deep attached hoods to be drawn over the head when going to and from the dressing room and with small bags about the size of those carried to the theater, which are designed to hold the purse and any other valuables of small size.

Every new invention has Its baptism of blood. But this will not deter the enthusiast from the pursuit of aviation. or whatever the air-cleaving process may by that time be termed. There must always be few hide-bound con- servatives to prefer terra firma and unbroken bones to the ecstasies of flight; but despite catastrophes, fa- talities even, there will always be plen- ty of the adventurous not only to fur nish victims, but to push experiment and invention to the limit.

The American husband is the best in the world and his wife the happiest woman in the world, according to Rev. pr. Charles F. Aked, pastor of the Fifth Avenue Church, New York, who came to this country year or so ago from England. ''The American woman has less drudgery and more leisure than any other woman. She has more money to spend and better things on which to spend it. She has more freedom, inde- pendencs, more power of initiative and

A beautiful shade of blue Is being exploited in millinery. It is very dark dye of Beauvais, but there Is much more black to the present shade. "Dusky blue" might best characterize it, and yet there Is great indication of the smoke color, too. The tone Is uni versally becoming and seems to go with anything. In the new velyets and vel veteens 1t Is adorable. To render the hats of this shade more soft in tone the milliners are putting a covering of moussellne the same shade of felt or silk.

Representative Clark of Missouri, who is expected to succeed MT. Will Jams as the leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, said, after returning from the convention in Denver, that the number of delegates to such conventions ought to be cut down one-half, and that they should more than twenty-five hundred per sons. The idea is not a new one, it Is true, but 1t is a good idea. Neverthe- less. so long as the spectacular and picturesque features of a nominating convention appeal so strongly to the public as at present, there is no pros pect of change.
