A misery millionaire who dressed
very shabbily was approached by a
friend who tried to persuade him to
dress better. A writer in the Washing
ton Star tells the story to illustrate the
wrong kind of content with old-fashion-
ed methods.
II am surprised" said the friend,
that you should let yourself be so
shabby"
But am not shabby" said the
miser
"Oh, you are" said the family
friend. Remember your father. He
was always neatly, even elegantly,
dressed. His clothes were very hand
some"
"Why," shouted the mser, triumph
antly, "these clothes I've got on were
fathers"

To Girls About to Marry.

The chances of a girl making good
wife depend entirely upon herself. It
takes force of character to love deeply
and to be worthy OF deep love- What
ever the amount of love metcd out to Il
good husband, he win return it with
Just equal zeal. and will study his
Wife's interest with the greatest care
and thought
Those of us who, by force Of circum-
stance, are obliged to work for our liv-
ing, have brains enough to appreciate
good man and Il pretty home when
such delightful links of happiness come
our way, Money gained by the toll Of
our hands is splendid thing; 1t is ex-
cellent training in any way. A hard
earned salary is a delight, especially
if by the making of it we help to keep
others as we'll AS ourselves. We were
not put into this world to drift. We
are here to work--to fill tho appointed
places which have been allotted us.
Work is part Of our portion here,
part of the Divine scheme When we
think about marrying we must not give
up work just because we shall expect
our dear chosen partner to keep the
little home together.
The girl who really loves, and has
had to scrape together hard earned
wages, will appreciate the Joy and
beauty of quiet, calm, domestic life.
When she sees the image Of her own
bright young beauty growing up around
her, hears the pattering of little feet
and the sweet childish voices, she will
he thankful she once worked for her
own living, which gave her so excel
lent training for being a wife and a
| mother.

Symphonies In brown are as popular

The width Of the fancy girdle worn
with blouses depends wholly upon the
length and circumference OF the wear

sumed for the leather belts worn with
tailored shirtwaists.

Make a list Of needed things and ad-
here to It,
Decide exactly what you want to buy,
color, quality and price you can pay.
Be amiable to the clerk. She Is a
human being and not a machine. She
will reward you by kindness and atten-
ton.
Order what you want pleasantly, but
very decisively, leaving no room for an
overpersuasive clerk to inveigle you
into buying what you do not want.
Know exactly what you want and take
nothing else.
Shop in the morning while you are
fresh, besides avoiding the crowded
stores and cars of later hours. Yor
will notice that you remain fresh, and
the homework you leave in order tC
go early looks a mere tri1e upon your
return.
Count your cash and plan to make
1t cover all necessaries. II you must
economic, study the art OF doing with
out unnecessaries. Buying a few things
that are actually needed gives far more
satisfaction than the accumulation Of
oceans of superhuous things

Colorado for Gold,

One hears a good deal more talk
about Alaska than about Colorado, but
the figures show that Colorado heads
the list for gold output. The produc-
ton in that state for 1907 is placed at
$20,SS8,833, as compared with $18,251,-
Clio in Alaska, while California is a
close third with $11394.S63. Nevada,
now center of interest on account
of the miners strike at Goldfeld,
ranks fourth, with $14704,658.
Another feature of the report is that
there was a reduction in the gold out
put of both Alaska and Colorado as
compared with 1906. Alaska's decrease
being little over $3,OOO,OOO and that
of Colorado about $2,OOO,OOO On the
other hand, Nevada is increasing in
production. In 1906 the Nevada mines
yielded $lo,47O, 704, an increase of $5,-
200,8S5 over 1905, while the yield for
1907 was $4,233,954 over that of 1906

To hatch a chicken by holding an

The very practical hat Is one thae
strikes a happy medium between the
elaborate and the severely plain, and
serves for many purposes. Especially
is it useful to the woman who lives
in the country and often comes into
town for the play or a restaurant din
ner, with only a bag and who must
wear a hat pretty enough for the occa-
sion, yet not too light for the train or
automobile trip. 1t is a simple large
black satin one with a very generous,
though not exaggerated, bow of heavy
black MORE ribbon some three inches
wide placed a little to the left. The

One could wear such a hat for calling
or afternoon tea with the satisfaction
of its being in suitable taste
