The shoulder seams are practically
the same, the japanese effect being
still greatly in vogue. Skirts are more
close-fitting, otherwise similar, and so
the modes that prevailed last winter
are by no means out of date yet.
Waistcoats are the rage at present,
also buttons which appear on dress
in all sorts of unexpected ways; they
are usually covered with the material
the dress is made of, and are repeated
on the shoulders and sleeves, also on
the basques of coats.
Tartans. which make their appear

seem to be more liked than ever, espe-

accompanied by braid-edged, Scotch

WHY More aox Babies Die.

DIR. Francis Warner, senior physician
OF the London hospital, has drawn atten-
tion 10 a curious seV problem Taking
the births of 1905, lie showed that 81 per
cent We're boys, yet the death rate of
boys was so much higher. than that of
girls that of 5-year-old children only 43
per cent were boys. Further statistics
showed that 81 per cent of boys, as COM
pared with only % per cent OF girls, died
in the first year. DR.. Warner attributed
the preponderance of females in England.
despite the more numerous birth of boys,
to the fact that much larger proportion
of males had the same physical defect. A
minute examination of thousands of chill
dren showed that . per cent of boys were
physically defective, as compared with Z
per cent of girls. but taking the children,s
medical wards, where practically all were
physically defective the mortality of de-
fective girls was higher than that Of the
boys. Hence he deduced that while the
female sex apparently approaches closer
to normality than the male, yet when
normalities are found equally in BOTH the
girls have less vitality, fact which
causes a more rapid breakdown under an
added strain. 1t was also noted that
while the male sex supplied a great ma
jority of criminals, yet in murders com
plicated with lunacy women were in a
great majority.

A woman,s Voice.

Very few women realize what an eff
feet a sweet voice has on a man. A
woman may be very pretty to look
upon, may be faulAessly and bewitch-
ingly attired and attractive in every
way and yet too often directly she
opens her mouth and speaks the spell
is broken, the charm is gone. And this
need never be.
Very few voices are so naturally bad
that they will not succumb to training
and the voice can be trained to be just
as sweet and gentle as one pleases to
make it.
A woman should speak in low
voice. She should not allow her voice
to raise itself to high pitch. A shrill-
voiced woman is terrible. She should
not shout her orders TO the servants
down the stairs, nor call to any one
who may be in another part of the
house. This shouting and raising of
the voice spoils the tone and quality of
the voice and tends to make it harsh
A pretty voice is a powerful attraction
in woman and she who would add to
her charms a wondrous fascination
should cultivate voice ever soft, gen.
tie and low"

The newspapers are full Of disserta-
tons on such topics as how TO he
successful business woman, how to be
a good stenorapher, how TO be we'll
paid factory girl, how TO be an efficient
housekeeper, how TO be satisfactory
cook, how to be a prosperous dress
maker.
But the question how TO be model
wife seems 10 have escaped the young
women who make their living by writ
ing such articles. Do they think being
model wife is so easy that no instruc-
ton in that art is needed? Or IS IL
that after woman is once married
she need not trouble about being mod
ell wife, her chief concern being how 10
make hers a model husband:
At any rate, the remarks OF Mrs
Sally Morris Cory of New Ysrk, who is
a wife herself, on the model wife prob
lem have all the charm of novelty. Mrs.
Cory's theory is that woman may
best seek happiness in married life and
that if she conducts herself according
to a set of simple rules she will be rea-
sonably sure to find it. She says that
the model wife will never have an opin-
ion contrary to her husbands, will have
the same religion or none, If he mas
none; will never try to be- intellectual,
will give up her family ties, for man
is born with a dislike for his future
wife's family; will be neat, economical,
a good cook and a good houseaeeper-
If she will attend to these little mat
tiers, she will make her husband happy
and be happy herself.
Perhaps this is true; at any rate,
every man will approve Mrs. Cory s
prescription. But will not happiness
be purchased too dearly at such
price? Never was there household
where the wife did not hold opinions
different from those of her husband,
and this, however hard it may be upon
domestic happiness is a good thing for
the world. The opinion of good wom-
an is an important factor in human
progress. But for that it is doubtful
whether slavery would have been abol-
ished but for that we should still be in
state Of barbarism. The opinions OF
good women, impressed upon their hus-
bands, are responsible for almost every
advance the race has made.
A wife should undoubtedly be neat,
economical, good cook and good
housekeeper, but she is entitled to her
own opinions and should insist upon
them always, whatever the cost to the
harmony of the home.-Chicago jour
nal.
