Two Popular Girls.

The women of Washington. especially the members of the younger set, who have been wondering how Baroness Elizabeth Rosen, daughter of the Russian ambassador, would adapt herself to the social conditions of the capital. have had their answer. In her own coun- try the young baroness is quite person. age. for after her presentation at the Rus sion court last year many special privi- leges were conferred on her. She was ap- pointed lady in waiting to the Czarina. and occupied still more intimate relation toward the grand duchesses, daughters of the Czar. Her personal position thus was established close after. that of royal- ty Tn the official order of precedence. Al she held aloof from social functions of every kind when she was In Washington two years ago it was thought the Bar oness Elizabeth was moro likely than ever to maintain her exclusiveness and possibly might demand special prercga~ lives analogous to those she enjoys In Russia.
 Helen Taft is another girl closely ob- served in Washington who sets an ad- and manner. Miss Taft never wears ring. bracelet or necklace and her sole com cession to the ordinary passion for jew elry is brooch of pearls which she wears with her street or calling costumes and a pretty little cluster of turquoises which her father gave her as a souvenir of the distinctions she gained in Bryn Mawr. Hike her mother, Miss Taft is partial to pink and one of the most becoming cos tunes she has worn this winter is a coral pink gown of soft satin, made semifltting princess. with line of lace and passementeries coming straight down the front and panels of lace ex- tending from the shoulders. She wears her soft, fair hair in . low knot with q pink rose as an ornament. Miss Taft's gowns usually arc brightened with motifs of lace and pearl embroidery, for shc has an unusually pretty collection of laces, most of which were picked up by Mrs. Taft in the course of her many tours aboard

Interesting Growing Among 
 Probably Maj

Should the visiting British suffragettes Invade Birmingham. seeking to introduce the propaganda. they would probably find that this city is absolutely immune from a seething hot bed of militant suffra- gettism. and that there is not likely to be a raise made by the insurance companies on the rate of plate glass windows. In fact, few mornings ago, when I elected to ask a number of people their views on tho subject that Mrs. Pankhurst, Mrs. Mackay. Mrs Belmont and their noble henchmen are so busily engaged in, found nary a suffragette except in theory) in all this township, and indeed. when the masculine element fell into my questioning lair, discovered that they, too. were good at hedging" and stoutly in the majority who hold to old time traditions and principles when 1t comes to women voting.
 On this particular morning, when had my sign out, namely. "Wanted--A Suf- fragette In Birmingham" the first per son l encountered was a man friend of mine. who happens to be rather clever, and So I stopped and asked him:
 ''Do you believe In woman suffrage?''
 Tho gentleman in question, being of the old school, and highly intellectual and Qu1to proper In every way, scoWled at me as though were book agent, and quietly said:
 Now. that's a. right funny thing. have in my right hand pocket a speech advocating woman suffrage. I have in my left hand pocket another that your sex shall not be permitted to vote.''
 You are two faced,' I said laugh ingly.
 Not at all. T have these two speeches and can repeat them by heart, when ever am called upon to talk about wcm- an suffrage" said he. '1 shall use the same policy have always indulged in with women. namely, to humor their whims, and so fl. you will tell me whether or not you are suffragette I will re- peat the speech relevant to your posi- tion.''
 'You are running for some sort of an office, you old politician" flung at him.
 These be parlous times. when 1t be- hooves men in the political arena to make friends of the mammon of unrighteous- ness." he said ''Tell me, are you for woman suffrage or not? Will get your vote when you have one to give if I de- clare for it now. or will lose it if de- clare against it?"

Hints on Neatness.


 There is a noticeable difference in the shape of a coat that has invariably been placed on a hanger and one that has in- variably swung by the loop in the back of the neck; it would probably be mora to the point to say that one has shape while the other has not.
 Most women, unfortunately. make the mistake of considering shoe trees a lux ury instead of necessity. and their shoes are an unmstakable evidence of the fact. The woman whose feet always look trim and tidy is the one who has shoe trees and uses them.
 The occasional use of hot irons and a little care in folding when putting away will keep veils freq and new looking for a long time, and for cheap veils a thorough rubbing in soapsuds and warm water Is beneficial. The worst thing in the world for veil is to leave 1t tied around hat. particularly if it is at all damp.

Votes for Women.

 1 had Christmas postcard from dear misguided friend The stamps aroused my wonder and my mirth; For votes for Women" hourished there ! below Good VIII to Men, And kept company beside with Peace \ on Earth" The suffragettes smash windows, lash prime ministers with whips. And when they get the vote they'll do the same. When party wrath is rising they will lash and smash again. Why not? What's Peace on Earth to such a damef The latest suffrage leader says if women told the truth They'd say they hated men- Some rave and ramp Df Man the Tyrant,' some their sex antagonism veil.

Yankee" I said, ito answer a ques- ton by asking one," and turned and left him, only to find .him calling after me, seeing probably that I had on high heeled shoes and silk stockings, and that, arguing against suffrage, if I'd come back. he'd repeat to me the proper speech.
 As I turned the corner I met another man, and I promptly said to him:
 Are you for or against woman suf- frage7'
 That's the fourth time this morning that I've been asked that question:" said he. "What is the matter with you wom- en anyway? Why can't you stay at home and attend to the chickens and the children and enjoy the good things that the gods have provided for you, in- stead of running around talking about wanting to vote?'
 Meaning by the gods the masculine element?" inquired. sarcastically.
 "Of course, women shouldn't be al- lowed to vote" said he not needing my frivolitly. 'sThere are a great many very brainy and influential women in these United States wno are not in fa- vor of woman suffrage, and until the question can become unit, and every woman want 1t, then 1t should be sup pressed"
 There are great many brainy and influential men In this country, too" I retorted, 'who do not exercise their right of suffrage, but that Is no reason why the privilege should be taken away from the others. know oodles of men who always go hunting on election day and never go near the polls. matters not how important the issue is. Now, do you consider that igood citizenship?''
 "I am not going to talk to you about suffrage" he said patiently. "There are lots of things women know about and discuss intelligently. but they know nothing about the great issues of the day, so let's talk about the spring. or about the latest tid-bit of scandal in society,"
 "Brute!" said, and turned on my heel and left him, only to run into a couple whom for days would have dearly loved to talk woman suffrage, and so began at once:
 Are you two for woman suffrage?"
 The gentleman, glancing uneasily at his wife, hemmed and hawed and finally di- vested himself of the Bromide remark

Removing a Rust Stain.

This is an old-fashioned way of re- moving a rust stain.' said a woman, as she proceeded to moisten some cream of tartar with water. When a child I recall seeing my mother do this many a time. The cream of tartar Is made into a soft paste, like a cold starch. and then the offending spot is covered generously with the preparation. A piece of thin linen or cotton-an old handkerchief an- swers admiraby-is put over the paste and then a warm, not hot, iron Is put on top. The heat dries the paste and at the same time draws the stain out of the fabric. l have found this method effica- cious, though in the case of very large spots, or spots that have been on for some time. more than a single appica- tion Is sometimes necessary"

ly desired. That gave Miss Good an idea If one little country town could furnish up It's streets, adorn bare highways with shade trees, keep litter out of sight and make even the 'back yard attractive, why not others? She started the work at once with a magazine article. The idea quickly was appreciated Letters came to her by the dozens. Village improve ment societies were organized and in 1901 a convention was called at which was formed the American League of Civic Improvement. The following year 1t was combined with the American Park and Outdoor Art association under the title of the American Civic association. Miss Good modestly disclaims applause for starting a movement which now em- braces the entire country and has done much for the betterment of many places but those interested in the work continue to regard her as the pioneer in a noble undertaking.

The Power of Suggestion.

Many a mother with best intentions in the world makes her child awkward or stupid or naughty just by the power of suggestion.
 Suggestion is a powerful thing, you know. It is half the time so utterly unsuspected.
 For instance a mother who is all the time nagging a child to be care full in handling delicate things puts into that chllds' mind slowly, but surely, the idea that 1t Is going to break some thing, which fear would never have entered the little ones mind propably but for the mothers suggestion. And of course under these conditions the acci- dent is much more likely to happen.
 There was once mother who when ever her daughter arose to dance or to recite or to play the piano would whis-

The Rose Workbag.

Workbags are being made nowadays to simulate the rose. Petals of six-inch width fold upward like the outer petals of a rose over a center of pompadour ribbon shirred into the shape of a round bag Both are fastened to round bot tom, and the upper edges of the petals are rolled between thumb and finger and slipstitched into curled edge. They are merely tackled against the sides of the bag as loosely as possible. so that they will retain the flower shape. Satin rib- bons of deep rose color are used in these bags.

The New Motherhood.

Woman had little to do directly with the shaping of old civilization, but we cannot help thinking that our modern sense of life and its more real and hue man investment are largely and directly due not only to spiritual qualities and distinctly feminine, but to fsmintne ini- tiative. In the clarified light of the soul
 womanhood has been translAted, says Harper's. Tho woman is stili the mother, but maternity has for our modern vision q significance which is not merely phy- sical. but spiritual-in its fullest mean- ing it Is the liberation of humanity for finer uses. She is nearer than man to the new nature, as she was to the old.
 But our ultra-modern naturalism has q pellucid atmosphere, full of light, and there Is clearer vision of truth. The Humanites and, we might also say. the
