Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great change O
few years of married life often make In
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
Of the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect TO deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form Of its
fairness.

The Distant Stare

Few persons would guess that the
smallest things visible TO the eye are
the stars. Yet, according to high au-
thority, such is the case Great as
many of the stars are in actual mag
nitude, their distance is SO immense
that their angular diameter becomes in
sensible and they approach to the con
dition of geomerical points. The mi
mute disks that they appear to have
are spurious-an effect of radiation.
