Why Americans Cant Rest.

The Americans. masters Of many arts,

land a s being noyices In the art of rest
ine. 1t Is not that they have no pleas
ures and recreations; they have these in
abundance. II is that they arc not leis-

II evidence were needed ] would merely
point to their eyes. The eve Is not only
the light of the body, IL Is the hetraycr
OF the nature and characteristics, And
the eye of the typical American is not
restful, except perhaps after heavy meal.
1t is tense.
1t seems strange TO me that with all the
education which Is given in this country

training 10 at people for rest. While
children are taught more and nIorc 10 use

The Well Dressed Woman.

"Always be well gloved aud well
shod and the dress will take care of
itself. 1t is very simple,' advises
the woman who has never earned a
slice of bread and butter in her life,
and would probably starve if she were
suddenly, left to support herself. Every
woman knows that good gloves and
good shoes are necessary part Of her
dress, and she knows, too, that much de-
pends on her personal appearance; but
when the rent Of her hall bedroom is
paid, or perhaps of the little fat where
her mother keeps house for herself and
several small brothers and sisters, and
when the milk and gas and bread and
butter and other bills are paid. to be
well gloved and well shod is far less
simple than 1T sounds. To be we'll
gloyed one must have more than one
pair, and ditto with shoes. Sometimes
one can spare the change to buy gloves,
but by the time shoe money has accumu.
lated, the gloves are worn; 50 while
formerly she had good gloves and
shabby shoes, she now has good shoes
and shabby gloves. And so 1t goes.
"Haye one good tailor.made suit and
plenty of shirt waists,p advises an
other woman. Well and good. Shirt
waists mean laundry bills, and unless a
tailored suit be Of the more or less ex-
pensive cloth, which will not shrink
with the first foggy evening or wear up
rough after few outings, the effect of
trying to be we'll dressed on one suit

that those citizens arc to be severely
