KEEP TWO CALENDARS.

1t is handy plan for the business
woman or the housewife who has much
domestic accounting to do to keep two
calendars. one to tear off day by day
the other to refer back to past dates
when necessary.
The reference calendar, which can be
very small and inconspicuous, should
have its special hook on the desk or
writing table

The eyebrows, declares a German

the rest of the body. Thin eyebrows
invariably show lack OF vitality, and

indicate the existence in their pos

endurance When the eyebrows meet,
says our German friend, you may be
certain that a sincere character IS ex-
pressed, though It is interesting to re-
call that every character reader since
the days of Aristotle has declared that
such eyebrows indicate a peevish dis
position. Long droopinS: eyebrows
wide apart, indicate a joyous DISPOSE
ton. If the eyebrows are more highly
colored than the hair of the head a
distinctly weak vitality Is denoted.
Lightly marked eyebrows which lie
high above the nose show disposition
toward Incidence. Dark eyebrows
which lend strong and energetic ex-
pressior to the face are indicative of
patience. Rarely will you find in per-
sons of sharp intellect eyebrows of
very light color, although the color
doc not count as much as the shape.
Red eyebrows invariably indicate con-
siderable ambition, but the average
eyebrow Is a combination Of black ana
red. Sc IL our German seer is right
the cult of the eyebrow is quite worth
while both from a beauty and psychO-
logical viewpoint. DAPHNE DEAN.

and admiration. Here is an example
of her thrift
early last month she bought q
broadcloth dress which, with the ex.

Well, after she got the suit home she
didn't like it. The store objected at
first to taking it back, but her per-
suasive tongue won them over, and
after deducting SIS for the alterations,
they refunded the money. Last week.
when nosing around, she saw that
same suit on sale for $35. My wife,
it seems, has such peculiar figure
that the suit, after being made to fit
her wouldn't fit anybody else, so
there was that $50 garment, and cheap
at the price, going for almost one
third off. She of course snatched up
the bargain. No more fitting or max.

mony. The attendants were Miss
Alene McGregor, sister of the bride
as maid of honor, and B. Hall, broth
er of the groom as best man. Miss
Effle McGregor and her brother, W.
E. McGregor of st. Paul, were pres
ent from distance.
Shortly after the wedding ceremony
and congratulations, a tempting we'd
ding breakfast was served.
Mr.. Hall, who is cashier of The
First State Bank of this city has won
state wide reputation by his integ-
rity and business qualifications and

my way of thinking, is as culpablc
as the deliberate training of young
minds to irresponsible, shiftless, or,
even, evil ways. We can get at the
father who trains his boy to steal
but we can't punish him because he
never proved to the youngster tho
nature of the crime and his duty to
society. We can get at the mother
who keeps a disorderly house but

else, it is vital that we know with
whom the boy associates, where he
spends his evenings, whether he
smokes or goes to worse ends, what
his standing is in school, what are
the books he reads at the library or
borrows from his friends. We must
know these things of our daughters,
