A Word to Girls.

1T is not the hat, but the head in it.
that is of consequence. Never mind
how plain your dress may be, remem-
Der that when garments attract atten-
ton OF themselves that should be given
to the wearer, it is no compliment to
be admired for your clothes. for, if
really pleasant no one will notice what
you wear. Some plain girls think t.
make up for want of beauty by smart
dressing. This is a great mistake.
''Ugliness bedizened advertises its de-
formity," A young Grecian painter
once attempted representation of the
beautiful Helen, and lavishly decked
her with ornaments. "Ah," said his,
master, reprovingly. chose would have
been unnecessary if you had had the
skill to make her beautiful Plain
girls and pretty girls. if you would
really be admired and loved. pray and
cultivate the ornament of that meek
and quiet spirit that will make you
dear to all around you, and which in
the sight of our Father is of great
price

cry for the season, have nothing put
away in a soiled condition Not only
do dust and dirt attract moths. but
they wear into the fabric and also only
postpone the evil day of laundering.
White dresses and skirts not TO be
worn again until spring should be laid
away without staTching and laid be-
tween folds Of blue paper. Parasols
should also be rolled before being
stored away; they should have sheets
of tissue paper put between the folds
and be loosely packed in tissue paper
in their own boxes.
Summer hats-those which are fit to
be held over until another season
should be carefully brushed, wrapped
in tissue paper, with a little camphor.
and put away in handboxes Beware
of mice. as well as of moths, if feath-
ers and velvet and other delicacies
tempting TO the palates of the little
pests are to be packed away.
Winter garments should be resurrect-
