-@ HE people I pity the most next
to the poor are the newly
rich.
II Money does not bring every
thing, and until these raw and crude
millionaires learn what they lack their
path is certainly not one Of roses.
The newly rich never realize why SO
many people run at sight of them. and
yet the answer is so easy.
They are SO pleased with their
money they cannot keep the converse
ton away from it. Everything has a
price, and you hear about that first of
all.
Besides. they are so conscious of
their own painful rise over the rounds
of the steep social ladder that they
value position out of all proportion to
what it is worth. They draw cruelty
sharp lines between the elect and the
near to elected and are just as rigor-

so anxious to conciliate.
A friend of mine was recently caught
in the rain and had to take refuge in
the house of a woman of this type
whom she knew but slightly. She
meant to stay on the piazza until the
shower was over, but her hostess in
sisted upon showing her all over the
house, telling her the price she had
paid for two Meissonier paintings and
also that they were Saving up" to
buy another small painting, which
would cost about $4,000. This was

Art of Being Agreeable.
After all, the art Of getting along
with people is easy. You must think
of their likes and dislikes and give
them what they want in entertainment
and conversation. You must forget
about yourself utterly and take their
point Of view. This is extremely hard
for the woman who has not at least
one generation behind her to the man

ORANGE STICK GOOD RIPPER.

When ripping a garment up for re-
modelling or any other purpose or when
pulling basting threads an orange wood
stick. such as is sold at any drug
store for manicuring the finger nails,
will be found a great convenience
1t removes the danger of cutting the
garment, as is often done when the
scissors are used.
The thread should be cut every few
stitches before the work of pulling the
threads is begun, and the threads may
then be pulled without stretching or
pulling the garment out of shape.

WOMEN ARE MARTYRS TO HOME
InEAIG

There are many women who work
themselves to death in the firm belief
that there lives no maid who can safely
conduct the family to the vantage point
of comfort
They make ideals of their spotless
pantry or immaculate kitchen and to
them offer up such precious sacrifices
as health and youth and good nature
A spotless home has powerful
charms, of course. but there are few
husbands who value it above the good
looks and welfare of their wives and
children, who do not learn to associate
it with discomfort and eventually de-
test it.

Smooth, glossy hair. a bright skin and

first requirements of fashion.
These things mark the fashiona BILE

wILHELMlNA LOVES PERFUMES

Queen Wilhelmina has become a con-
vert to perfumes. Until recently she
persisted with obstinacy against per-
fumes of all kinds. but was won over
by lady in waiting who returned
from a visit to Paris with an assort-
ment of the rarest flower essences.
The queen sampled them and promptly
placed an order in Paris. She follows
the French method in the use of per-
fume. which is to apply 20 each ar
ticle of clothing the odor Of a different
flower.

THE OUTDOOR "HAlRPIN HUNT


When you see two or more people
walking along together, eyes on the
sidewalk and muttering in occasional
spasmodic monosyllables or pointing
wildly at some semi-invisible object in
front of them, don't run away with the
idea that they are necessarily a group
of asylum guests out for an airing
They are playing "hairpin hunt" a
queer new pastime that serves the
treble purpose of affording healthful
outdoor exercise, of cultivating the
powers of observation and of supplying
more amusement than one might i'm
agine. Here are the rules of the game:
Two or more players walk abreast
Cor, in case of four, take partners and
choose opposite sides of the street)
and scan the sidewalk for hairpins.
The player or pair of players discov-
ering most hairpins in a given number
of blocks win the game. Many people
scarcely notice that hairpins lie in real
profusion along every highway of every
city. Yet it is safe to say there is not
a single block that does not reveal sew
eral more or less rusty, twisted hair
pins strewn on the pavement.
