tice.
The camp bee has already started
in to work and the majority of the

There are too many boys and girls in
the country aud city, more in the lat
ter than in the former, who are prone
to look upon work as beneath them
There are thousands of them on the
threshold of maturity who retain the
same views and habits which encourage
ment in their earlier years What be-
comes of this class of people? Some Of
them awaken and after IA desperate
struggle overcome the habit and learn
to work, to save, and to prepare for
the inevitable rainy day. Many of
them however, drift and drift until
they become acceptable recruits in the
hobo army. Then they speedily reach
the conclusion that things are mighty
unequal in this world; that the advan-
tages are all with the rich, and that a
poor man has no show.

AVERAGE AGE OF ANIMALS.
{ y ERY few people know the average
" age Of domestic animals. Those

who make companions of them
can't tell you their age for natural
death. 1t might be of interest to men
ton the average age of some domestic
animals, as well al wild ones.
The maximum age of a cat is Is years.
The pig has been known to live 20 years.
1t is recorded of a horse hat 1t lived
to the g of So years; they average 20
to 30 years; sheep seldom exceed the age
of 10 years; cows live about Is years;
rabbits, squirrels and hares, z to 5 years;

specimen known as Pompey nvingto the

When Alexander the Great had con-
quered Porus, king of India, he took a
great elephant which had fought very
valiantly for the king, and named him
Ajax, dedicated him to the sun. and let
him go with this inscription: "Alexan-
der, the son of Jupiter, dedicated Ajax
to the sum-" The elephant was found
with this inscription $50 years after. 1t

HATPINS

The simplicity of trimming on hats
makes nice hat-pins imperative. The
newest of these are very large pear
shaped pearl shells, occasionally
studded with brilliants.
Large flowers, butterflies, dragon
flies and small birds. beautifully carved
out of horn, and ~delicately tinted, are
most artistic. The coloring in the case
of the wings of a butterfly or gadfy is
realistic. and the effect of these har-
monies against the background of black
or dark straw is excellent.
The craze for broderie Anglaise has
extended even to millinery, n black
and-white schemes are carried out with
bands of broderie superposed on folds
of black satin. The Introduction of this
note of black satin is essentially
French, and appears on many of the
light dresses. as well as on hats.

lilies.
The American girl of the present Is
not bold, neither is she timid. Neither,
to her credit. does she pretend to be
timid. Her attitude toward the world
is honest, a well-balapced poise that is
exceedingly attractive. She learns to
think for herself almost as soon as her
baby brain finds itself able to think at
all. Consequently, she reaches woman
hood and matrimony well-equipped for
her place In the world and the home.
The European girl arrives at that
stage totally unable to rely upon her.
self, SO used is she to having things de-
cided for her. The reins of matrimony
are often a dead weight in her hands.
Sometimes one can hardly blame her
for wanting to shatter her existence
to bits, and "remold it nearer to the
hearts desire"
The American girl is typical of the
freedom and the beauty of her country.
Freedom is her birthright and beauty
is her heritage. Her standards are
high. She knows full well the meaning
of truth, and loyalty, of honor and a
clean mind. Her clear eyes see
things as they are, and II men In this
country defer too much to their wives
and sisters-as has been d~eclared-it is
because they know full well the worth
of what they worship.

l"HERE are three sides to every
dispute-the inside. the out
side and the wrong side.
Make sure you are on the right side
when you pass judgment"
1t makes a good theme for US to chat
about, says Katherine Moody Spalding
in the Philadelphia Inquirer.
We make a whole lot of trouble for
ourselves by looking at the wrong side
of things-especially other peoples
business.
If we would attend strictly to our own
we would all be happier. 1t is time
enough to look into the business of the
outside world when it is thrust before
cur eyes without projecting u sight as
from a tentacle nto such things as are
no concern to Us individually. AS a
rule, people can manage their own at
fairs better by themselves h a when
advised by a multitude.
Whatever the attitude of our mind
toward the affairs of others keep on the
right side. There is nothing that will
make an enemy sooner than to take the
wrong side in a dispute with him
though he be o very best friend. 1t
is as bad as borrowing money of him.
1t is one of h easiest things in the
world to get into a wrong attitude of
mind; to see with distorted vision, The
wrong side of things looks like the
right side and all the thoughts are
directed from this point of view to the
great unhappiness of everybody con-
cerned.
Now and then some unfortunate crea-
ture is born unhappy. Everything In
life looks wrong, and as they grow
older they are the ban of the COM
munity because they believe that
everyone around them is trying to
''do" them, is mean at heart. and self
ish in purpose. They see ne good In

!. DECORATED LINEN BELTS ]

A decidedly new and novel idea is to
applique linen belts with oddly shaped
bits of colored linen.
The belts should be rather wide and
unlined. Diamond shaped, round and
oblong pieces of linen in red. blue, old
pink. jade green, and violet are then
stitched on in an irregular ann
Conventional designs may be adhered
to, and the bits of linen may also be
piped with a contrasting color.
One Of these belts run through a
crude bronze buckle would add a dis
tinctly original touch TO a white linen
shirtwaist suit.

books were chosen for her right up to
her wedding day. The thought of act
ing Independently never e~ntered-ap-
parently-her demure little head. When
she came to herself. as 1t were, and
found herself married to a man in
whom she was barely interested and
who thought heaps more of her dot
than Of herself, she felt, vaguely, that
the whole system Of things was wrong;
but so strong was custom that she in
turn, when daughters came, put them
through the same course of training.
In the last generation many Of our
American girls have been sent to
schools on the other side. They have
come in daily contact with these re-
served, demure, submissive little Euro
peans, and have, to indulge once more
in our dearly beloved slang, taught
them q thing or two. Let 1t be added
that our girls have also learned much
