and the King of Italy hardly reaches
to the shoulder of Queen Helene. The
Queen of Denmark. too, is a good deal

the rule are the King of Norway and
the new King of the Belgians. The lat
ter is six feet two inches in height and
the tallest king in Europe.

GLIMPSES OF
AN EMPRESS

Ex-Empress Eugene was in Paris
again the other day. On her visits sha
always stops at the rather noisy Hotel
Continental, in order to have 4 view of
the Tuileries, where she reigned for
more than twenty-five years. For hours
she stares out of the window, they say,
thinking of past glories. But servant
of the faded old woman has given this
the lie direct
''Mais non! Never in the world. -
said the attendant 'Empress Eugene
never sits and stares out of the window
overlooking the glories of days gone
fby. She stops at the Hotel Continental
because she likes it. 1t is airy, and
sentiment has nothing to do with the
choice of a hotel.
"She 8 not sentimental-not a bit!
She s very gay, on the contrary I
mean she is just like anybody else.
She's getting old, of course-she s
eighty-four now-and naturally she
doesn't 60 out much, but she entertains
all the same. She has many intimate
friends, and they visit her frequently

Eugene is of them.
els she generous2 Yes. She gives
a lot of money to charity; much more
than people ever suspect. You know,
you can never tell about royalty.
Among servants, Emperor William is
said to be close. Now, IS hard to say
whether that is the Emperor's fault,
or whether it is due to his inferno
diaries. Kings and queens never nego-
tate directly with landlords, nor do
they themselves ever tip servants.
Everything has to pass through two or
three persons, and each one wants to
keep as much as possible for himself.
When every one has taken his share,
there IS often little left for those who
should have had it all Besides, royal
persons are sometimes poor

She lives simply. No, she doesn t get

The door at the other end Of the hall
opened while the servant was talking
and the exEmpress appeared, bent,
old woman. A long black cape covered
her dress. A rather large fiat black
hat, hung with a black veil, framed
her pale wrinkled features. She opened
her ewes wide-dark wonderful eyes,
although they seemed tired and hesitat-
ing where one imagined they were i'm
petuous and commanding before. But
the extraordinary eyebrows were there
yet-thick, heavy ones, almost forming
two black circles in her pale, white
face. She looked at the interviewer
timidly, worrying, it seemed lest some
thing might happen to her, But, trained
10 self-control, she said nothing and
passed silently. One would not have
imagined that the timid. shadow-like
figure was the once-glorious Eugene.

soft water made from cereals should
be employed once a day. \ cupful of
rice or hOminy or barley may be put
into a quart Of cold water and slowly
brought to the boiling point. It should
simmer slowly for fifteen or twenty
minutes, when it stands on the back
of the stove rntil the kettle is cool, and
the liquid is strained. To a pint of
the liquid, when cold, a tablespoonful
of tincture of benzoin may be added,
and one has a wash which is not only
cleansing, but contains pourishing
starch and gluten.
Cereal water should be prepared
every three days or every other day,
for it will not keep well long.
\ very soft cloth is wet in the prepa-
ration and the throat is mopped and
very lightly rubbed That coating is
allowed to dry on and the washing is
repeated When the second coating
has dried on, the skin is gone over with

piled.

will be had if it is done morning and
night regularly.

A FLAG SALUTE FOR WOMEN.

Now that the school season is with
US again, question that school teach
ers have long desired national ruling
upon can be discussed appropriately,
says the Philadelphia Record The
question is, How should women salute
the fag3'' 1t is not possible for a
woman TO remove her hat as the fac
passes in the street, as a man does.
What. then. should she do to show her
reverence for the colors. and how should
the girls of our schools and colleges be
taught to salute the national emblem.
so that the American woman of the
future NAV have uniform method OF
saluting the flag? Opinions of those
who have been consulted differ mate
rally concerning the correct way a
woman should give some outward and
visible sign of her patriotism when the
flag passes.
For instance. General Miles does not
agree with some that the military salute
would be suitable for women. He ad-
vocates the placing of the right hand
across the breast. with the middle finger
directed toward the point OF the left
shoulder. the head at the same time be
ing partly lowered.
Another distinguished soldier. General
Chaffee. suggests that the most grace
ful and effective manner of saluting the
flag when a number of women or girls
are gathered together, is for the girl 10
draw a handkerchief from her belt or
other receptacle and hold it pendant
from the hand horizontally or upward
at an angle of fortvfve degrees.
General Grant would have a more
simple salute. The mere bowling of the
head he thinks. would be enough.
Admiral Schlev thinks more elabo-
rate salute appropriate The admiral
would like the mothers and daughters
of the land to place the right hand over
the heart when saluting the flag and
bow the head reverentlv at the same
time. Admiral Dewey would have no
other salute for men and women than
the raising of the hand to The forehead
and then dropping the hand, the grace
full and effective salute in use among
army and navy men the world over.
Admiral Evans thinks the military sa-
lutte the right thing. too, but rises to
remark that the courtesy Of tie foreign
women as the sovereign passes strikes
him as most pleasing way to show re-
spect. and he suggests this as an alter
native to the military salute.
The consensus of opinion among many
consulted on this subject is in favor Of
the military salute.

NEW UNDERWEAR.

The narrow skirts now in demand
necessitate further narrowing of
underwear to conform to the new lines.
Drawers, of course, come under this
heading, and various ingenious methods
have been devised to narrow them.
They are made. for instance, on a
yoke top, with wide, lace-trimmed leg.
Again, they open on the side, being
edged with wide lace and fastened at
the side Of the leg with ribbons or
buttons. And some are made with
knickerbocker band that fastens below
the knee and is finished with rutfle,
or are fitted with tucked tops.
Altogether, the underwear one buys
this fall should be purchased with an
eye to its possibilities in connection
with the empire gown.

MANS ANCESTORS.

Startling development of the Oar
winan theory is contributed by DR.. F.
Melchers, the German biologist, in the
Zeitgeist.
Instead of descent from a single race
of apes, Melchers propounds the theory
that mankind is really divided into four
great race groups, each of which is
descended from one of the four race
groups of anthropoid apes. Representa-
tives of these four are to be found in
existing gorillas, chimpanzees, ourangs
and gibbon apes.
From the gorilla type of ape are
descended, according to Melchers, what
he calls the West Congo GuineaSoudan
negro, the Bantus and Zulus, and also
the fair haired and red-haired northern
races. including the Films; from the
chimpanzee apes are descended northern
A fricans and southern Europeans; the
ourang -outang is the ancestor of the
Tasmanians, Australians and short
headed South Germans, while Mongo-
lians. Malays. Polvnesians and Siberians
come from the gibbon ape.

BUTTONS.

Pearl buttons lead in favor as trim
mings and for practical use in the fall
styles. They are in white, black,
mother fpearl and dyed shades Most
Of these buttons are very large, nearly
all in eighteen and twenty line sizes.
DemigIobe and cup shapes are seen,
with false eyes or black-rimmed eyelets.
Often the artificial ivory buttons are
dyed in two colors, or in black and a
color.
Metal buttons. like metal passemen-
teries, are largely Byzantine in effect.
Dull brown antique gold and silver and
hammered copper are some of the eff
fects shown, usually in shell pattern.
Glass and enameIed buttons show ami
NAL fgures-polar bears, wolves. dogs,
etc.-mounted in silver. These are es-
peciaIly designed for fur coats. A few
porcelain buttons are also shown, paint
ed IN Egyptian patterns.
Among novelties, pendants in imita-
tions Of jewels and small black and red
glass buttons are offered

AVOID TIGHT COLLARS.

The quality of water that a woman
uses for bathing purposes has some
thing to do with the condition of her
throat, but more than any other one
thing to cause stringiness is a collar
which is too.tight. In these days. when
linen collars. stiff and high, are worn
much of the time, all sorts Of safe
guards must be ia ken to overcome the
effect they VIII have ON muscles. When
the bandage--that is what the linen
amounts tots close fitting, muscles are
para.yzed. and the tissues are not prop
eriT fed. for circulation is impeded.
Much Of this may be prevented by
wearing collar half an inch larger
than is actually required The differ
ence in size viii not be apparent in
effect. but its action on the throat viii
not be so harmful
Soft water must be used always. and
as boraX and soda, valuable thourh
they are, may be too drying to tissues
