Value of Good Digestion.

ITO look young and keep your
beauty you must have a good diges-
tion," says a beauty culturist. I'VE
feed our patrons upon herbs; we give
them greens and we advise them to
take acid fruits. When a Gypsy wo-
man gets out of sorts she lives upon
dandelion greens; she mixes sweet
herbs; she doctors herself with the
fruits of the earth and she RECEIVERS.
Outdoor life is everything for the
woman who wants to keep young.
"Her walk gives away the woman
who does not want people to know how
old she is. Usually she loses her elias
ITCHY. And she takes to high heels
and a stilted walk. Wear conventional
clothing and be elastic in your gait !;
in that way you will look younger.
Il advise women generally to join
dancing class. By taking the steps
one can keep up ones elasticity winter
and summer. l have a class of four
women who come three times week
to learn the Gypsy fandangoes and the
Spanish dances. They find that they
breathe better, feel better and are
more healthy generally from this ex-
ercise."

Left-Han q edness.

The way one is carried in babyhood
determines ones left or right-handed-
ness. AS a rule the mother or nurse
carries the babe on her right arm
Thus the babes left arm is pressed
against her side, and in this constraint
does nothing. The right arm, on the
contrary, is quite free to develop skill
and strength. Contrariwise the baby
carried on the left arm soon becomes
left-handed ineradicably.
An Austin woman had three children,
and they were all left-handed. On the
birth of her fourth child the woman
asked her doctor, a new one, if this
babe could not be prevented from grow
ing up left-handed like all his brothers
and sisters.
(Which arm did you carry the other
babies on?" said the doctor.
THE left" the mother answered.
Garry this baby on your right ARM"
he advised.
She did so, and the fourth child
grew up right-handed-Ch Chicago Inter

Woman q Failure In Business,

Woman has failed to make good
as a leader and thinker III the profess
sions and in business. While many
succeed in earning a very comfortable
living for themselves, few rise to the
top in ally of the many lines of activ-
ity which they have invaded in recent
years. Very few are among physi-
clans or lawyers of note. Few rise to
be executive heads of colleges, editors,
or directors of big business enterprises.
They have had control of fortunes;
they have had sway in kitchens; they
have always taught; they have always
acted; yet mer. are the great f1nanciers,
cooks, teachers, managers of theaters.
In no profession are they equal to any
of the leading men who stand at the
head of various occupations and whose
Dames are familiar to the public"
This is the sweeping arraignment
brought against woman in business and
professional life by one of her own
class, Mary O'Co1lnor Newell, in APP
pleton's Magazine. She quotes with
approval the statement of we'll
known man that there are three kinds
of women in business-the kind that
marry, the Discontinued kind, and the
desexed kind-and that only the lat
ter are successful.
The confession is made that even
the women who seem to be most sue
cessful in professional occupations usu-
ally regard themselves as failures,
whether they will admit it or not. By
the time they have reached the point
where they are able to accomplish i'm
portant results they feel keenly the
lack of family ties and home surround
mgs, and the more womanly they are
the more strongly does this lack make
itself felt. This is the explanation
given Of why so many young business
women for whom brilliant careers are
predicted abandon their chosen occu-
patton for marriage.

SLIDING Shoes.

Is there any woman who has not
suffered with half shoes and pumps
that slip up and down on the heel
In summer the streets seem to be
crowded with humanity with painful
expressions on their faces, treading as
though terra firma were a much more
fragile substance than it is. A relief
however, has at last been discovered
by some wise person whom necessity
transformed into an inventor.
Paste a piece of velvet inside the
heel of the shoe, of course, with the
side of the nap toward the foot, and
this will effectually prevent any slip
ping or rubbing. 1t is very easy to do
costs but very few cents and any
good liquid glue may be used, so that
at last an effectual and easy preventive
for slipping heels has been found.

The Incnn PrTan.

There is criticism of Bryan for his
inconsistency. Emerson stigmatized a
| foolish consistency as the hObgOblin OF
little minds. If consistency is mark
Of greatness, surely Bryan is great
| Here is the record of some of Bryans
inconsistencies as compiled by the New
York Globe:
Bryan has considered any man clean
and any money clean that was obedient
to him; he has attacked as unclean any
man or money that was in his way. He
| denounced Roger c. Sullivan of Illinois
as train robber, as a political corrup-
| ZIONIST and tool of selfish financial in
| terests, and then went into partnership
with Sullivan when the latter agreed to
give him the Illinois delegation. Bryan
denounced Croker and Tammany poll
tics, and then rode around the streets
of New York in a carriage with Croker
shouting Great is Tammany and Croker
is its prophet Bryan denounced
Thomas f. Ryan, yet Bryan's brother
in-law and his natiOnaf committeeman
from Nebraska secretly solicited and
received Ryan money to be used to
carry Nebraska that Bryan might have
a chance TO come to the Senate. Pre-
tending to be an opponent of the trusts,
he has VIGOROUSLY been a pensio1er on
the bounty of Wetmore, the tobacco
magnate of st. Louis. Bryan has sup
ported the cause of free trade and abon-
doned it; supported free silver and
abandoned it; supported Imperialism
and abandoned it-and in each case his
support or abandonment has been con-
nected with what he thought was his
selfish political interest"
When Bryan was building his elegant
house at Lincoln he gladly accepted a
present of stained glass windows from
Col. Guffey of Pennsylvania. Col. Cuff
fey was twice for Bryan as the Demo
cratic candidate for the Presidency. He
is not for Bryan now because he be-
lieves a third Bryan candidacy would
invite another Democratic defeat Cuff
fey is now in the bad books of Bryan,
who calls him vicious and denounces
him as a corporation man; but he is
no more corporation man than when
he supported Bryan for the Presidency
and when be gave Bryan the present of
the stained glass windows.
So far as inconsistency can be de-
pended upon as a demonstration of
greatness, Bryan is entitled to praise
as the greatest man the Democratic
party has produced Milwaukee Even
ing Wisconsin.
