AFFECTING SERIOUS WORK.

The present fad for serious work
:.mong fashionable women has Gre
ated quite a demand for private sec
retaries of the same social set as their
employers. Requests for favors from
the powers that dole out passes and
other forms of writ that give permits
sion to investigate or correct condi-
tions are far more likely to receive a
favorable reply if a courteous and
correctly expressed letter is sent than
if a brusque though businesslike
goes forth, and in this sort OF
wheedling with the pen the girl with
social experience has been found most
successful. Some of the buster
women have more than one secretary
for their public work, as we'll as n
for their social correspondence. So
whatever else may or nay not result

SENSITIVE WOMEN.

Women are usually much too SEN

sitiveness is only another form of
vanity and se~lf-conceit. The woman
who is really self-forgetful is never

thinking of others that she is not
thinking about her own dignity. 1t
does not bring real happiness to pos
sess exaggerated vanity that is
wounded on the slightest provoca-

CuriOsities OF Smell.

No substance that refuses to dis
solve in water has an odor. 1t Is
the actual substance itself, floating
in particles in the air. that appeals
to the nose, and not simply a vibra-
ton of the air, as in the case Of
light and sound. The damper a thing
is the more powerful the odor it
gives off. A pleasant proof of the
fact can be had by walking in a gar
den after rain. There is 10 end to
the curiosities of smell. 1t is, for
instance. the vapor OF a liquid that
smells. and not the liquid in the
mass itself. II eau de cologne be

fuses to recognize any odor there at

oysters. To one cupful of corn pulp add one egg. Beat the
yolk separate in a bowl, put in the cupful of corn and beat

and stir we'll. Now add butter the size of a walnut, ana SAT-

light and foamy and stir it last into the mixture. Drop a

In one of Chicago's giant hotels a
device has recently been installed
which will liberate steam into the ra-
diators during the winter, and cold
brine or liquid air during the sum-
mer, thus heating the o through
the cold months and cooling them
during the hot. This thermostat is
so constructed that for each variation
in the degree of temperature, a COR
responding change is made in the
quantity of cold or hot material in
troducted into the radiators, thus
maintaining an even temperature
throughout the year. Many advan-
tages, it is believed, will be had from
this arrangement, probably greatest
of which will be the diminution of
the number of colds suffered by the
dodgers, throat troubles of this Ia
ture being believed due mainly to
sudden changes in room temperature.
