When hot days come it should be the

everything look as cool as possible, says
the Woman's Home Companion. That has
a large effect In making one feel cool. The

the flowers on the table should not be too
brilliant in color (white blossoms are so
much cooler looking than redD, the table

When Women Admired whiskers.


For ages boards were the delight Of
ancient beauties. TIL sight Of a shaved
chin excited sentiments of horror and aver
sion To obey the injunctions of his
bishops, Louis VII Of France cropped his
hair a la pompadour and shaved off his
luxuriant whiskers Eleanor Aquitare, his
consort, found him with this uncommon
appearance very ridiculous and very con-
temptible. She %revenged herself by be-
coming something more than a coquette.
The king obtained a divorce. She then
married the count of Anjou, who shortly
afterwards assembled the English throne,
and gave him as her marriage dover
the rich provences Of Pointou and Gulenne.
And this was the origin of those wars
that for 800 years ravaged France and
which cost the French nation 100000 men;
all Of which probably had never taken
place II Louis VII had not been so rash
as to shave off his whiskers, by which he
made himself so disgusting to the fair
