Warm lime water used on the teeth

This is also excellent for pain in the

A baby's eyelashes may be clipped to
induce the growth, but after earliest
childhood that method is inadvisable,
as the lashes may not grow a second
time.
Do not drink hot coffee Immediately

Ragged eyebrows may be readily re-

As TO Women.

There will always be something new
to say about women as long as one is
left among us.
Man would not always walk straight
ahead if he did not meet a woman at
each step. She is charming travelling
companion, but one who does not know
her way, and she prevents US from see
ing ours.
Snce the creation of the world fash
ions change constantly, but woman
never changes.
To ascertain the age of woman it
is necessary to ask her and to ask her
best friend. She will say 80, the friend
will say 40, and then you take the av-
erage.
Women who excite in our minds
merely ordinations of admiration are
like Racine's tragedies-too perfect
One prefers those who excite interro-
CATION points, says Life.

Some say that the tapped skirts are
intended to counterfeit the influence of
fiounced effects, which some designers
feel have enjoyed fashionable favor
long enough. 1t cannot be denied that
they are adapted to greater variety
of becoming arrangements than
fiounces, which at their scantiest are
looked upon with distrust by women no
longer slender, though gracefully digni-
fed.
Some of the smartest draped effects
are raised at the front, appearing as
if the panel has simply been terminated
at the knees and left unstitched to fall
over deep hem or fold of a decora-
tive fabric OF bit of lace. Again the
drapery appears at the side and still
again one sees it falling in point at
the front, perilously close in its re-
semblance to the old-fashioned over
skirt.
Those who are perforce compelled to
consider the practicability of mode
before anything else will find the
stitched draperies both smart and eff
fective. They form self trimmings, or
may be of velvet, MORE or even simply
simulated drapery achieved with
braid in a slightly darker shade than
the material of the gown. Skirts of
cloth falling over petticoats of taffeta
finished with deep folds of MORE or
panne are used to embody some very
clover ideas by the leading dressmak
ers of Paris, and if the coat is of dark

Captures the Masculine Heart IN
This Day of Wit and Brains.
The burden of a popular French nov
elist's arguments is that beauty in the
old classical sense is Of no account; 1t
has been replaced by elegance. A wom-
an would not be nattered II you told
her she was very beautiful but dressed
badly. She would show you the door
if you praised her face, but criticised
her dress and hat. 1t would De an
objectionable sin. Indeed, according to
the novelist, belle femme" seems
nowadays to signify a rather massive
person, difficult 10 dress. Where are
the glorious beauties that awakened
the admiration and passion OF our fore
fathers? Where are the modern Hell
ems. the Nine Recamiers, Nine. de CAS-
tigliones. and Lady Hamiltons? Ordi-
nary observations tell US that beaute
Gus creatures of this type still exist
among us, but without exciting our ap-
parent homage The handsome coQnette

and gallants If the day might PASS
along unnoticed in Broadway. People
might turn and say to their neighbors
what a lovely woman" but no man
among these adventitious admirers
would sit up of nights composing
sonnet to her eyebrow. No, those days
are gone-killed by elegance and by in
telligence.
AS to elegance, it has Its hundred
aids. There is the dressmaker, perpet-
ually striving to find new effects OF
costume to enhance the natural charms,
to mitigate, to subtly conceal the nat
ural defects of face and figure. And
what need to speak of those other arti-
fatalities which reside in the skill OF
the "coiffeur," in the puffs and powders
of the modern toilet table? 1t is an
age of cunning invention and conspira-
CIV against the natural and simple. Ii
is no longer beauty unadorned that fiut-
tiers the masculine complacency, but me-
diocre features decked out in all the
gawds of the Ruede la Paix and the
Avenue de dOpera.
Ii must be confessed that since wom-
an began to cultivate her brain she
has been less exclusively occupied in
making conquests Of the other sex.
"The happiness of the greatest num-
ber'' is the democratic rule presiding
over the kingdom of women to-day. 1t
is easier to acquire the art of conyersa-
ton than a classical beauty of face, II
that can ever be attained, even in the
beauty institutes. The present DISPOSE
ton to award the palm TO intelligent
and attractive plainness rather than to
witless physical perfection is eminent
ly suited to the great bulk of the fem

Leave His Card.

A married woman, when paying for
NAL call, always leaves her husbands
card. even though he may not know the
people whom his wife is visiting. Opis-
sion to send his card. however, is
equivalent to saying that he does not
wish to know them, or that his wife
does not wish that he should. so that
even in visit to an unmarried woman
his card should be in evidence.
In calling upon a married woman
the visitor always leaves one of her

Hopping Good Exercise,

Hopping is one of the best exercises
for developing muscles 1t is easy to
do. too, for the movement consists of
jumping first on one foot and then on
the other. so that the whole weight of
the body will be borne by one foot and
leg for one or more minutes. Tbs ex-
ercise improves the way of carrying
the body when walking. for it develops
balance as well as muscle. This exer-

and the windows should be open. 50
