An exceedingly pretty summer hat of

GRATED with white dotted net arranged
in box plaits and encircling which is
a wreath Of gorgeous pink roses. On the
left side near back is fastened a black
aigrette.
For hat trimmings the very last cry
is the uncurled ostrich feather, knife
shaped and with the under side a diff
ferent color from the upper. For ex-
ample, white on one side and green on
the other, or black and gray are favor
ite combinations.
The fashion of trimming the hats on
the right rather than on the left side is
gaining favor. though it cannot be said
that the arrangement is generally be-

Health and beauty Hints.

Weak bOrax water is a good denti-
frice.
A foot bath in which a handful of
common salt has been placed and FOL
lowing brisk rub will often remove a
severe headache.
Weakness of the heart is indicated by
breathlessness after any slight excr-
ton and by such evidences of imperfect
circulation as pale fngernails and cold
eXtremitieS.
A harmless bandoline is made from
three ounces of gum arabic dissolved in
half pint of warm rose water. This

strained a drop of a solution Of aniline

Try To Make the Best OF 1t.


There is scarcely any one who does
not think but that he has been unjustly
dealt with, either by nature or fortune.
If these individual imperfections can
be remedied, strive in every legitimate
way to help ourselves. If not, make
the best of them. It is not so much our
own actual condition of life that breeds
happiness as the use which we make
Of our opportunities. Some people Will
be CHEEKY and useful anywhere, and
under any livable conditions. Others
are correspondingly dismal. Therefore,
as a matter Of convenience, make
the best of things, says Woman's Life.
A smile and a bright word will lead you
to success, when dismal thoughts mean
failure.
