TT was one of those communal af-
 fairs. so tO speak and. of course, 1t
 was at boarding house. Somebody
 there conceived the idea of breaking
 the dreary monotony of boarding house evenings by arranging a cute little St. Pntricks Day bridge party. Now, just why such diversion should have been selected for such day was Too much for even Mir. IuStwed. But bridge it was-and everybody clipped in 70 csuts apiece to buy the prizes.
 The Justweds were invited by the Joneses-Jones worked In tue same bank with MT. J. and thought it would be nice 10 have Mrs. Justwed meet Mrs. Jones. Accordingly, if was so fixed. though Nr. J. wasn't in the least crazy about it.

 "Oh. yes. I know all that" growlad Mir J. You want me to be the village cutun and do a lot of parlor tricks so people woa't say. That Mrs Justwed Is certainly a nice little woman. but what in the world did she ever marry such au old stick as Mfr. Justwed for" I know exactly what you'
 Homer eNpostulated Mrs J. "I don't see how you can make such an un- gallant remark
 If Mir. Justwed made any reply 1t was lost in the habhle of voices that came from within as the front door to the house of the festivities opened to admit them.

them in the severe tailor modes since the coats are shorter.
 The arrangement of pockets is interest ing. and 1t is on such details as this that the clever tailor finds originality. even for his most conservative models More extreme lines have been followed In many of the Riviera tailored costumes. but this is q hazardous business unless one can afford to put frock aside later, provided that one finds she has made bad guess good many models along Russian lines have been made up. and some of these are exceedingly good look ing and modish. Concerning the Russian modes one New York tailor of women's garments says:
 We are making Russian coats and shall make more of them. In fact, l believe we shall all be tired of them by the time summer is well begun, but advise leaving the Russian lines for linens and tussahs that you will not want to wear in the fall and for dressy. soft sturs that will stand artistic fulness and trimming
 The Russian coat. severe and simple. is trying to the average figure. It Is essentially youthful. and it is bound to be q passing fad much overdone. Have your general utility tailored suit severe and conventional. with just the materials

THE GRACEFUL WOMAN

 When the woman gives her hand to g man fin greeting It should be given palm downward, with a graceful and uuhur- ried movement. In the days of chivalry the hand was extended that it might be saluted. The movement should he almost the same today. The mans hand should be in the attitude of reception. The iden is that the hand is being given to bim- After the fingers are clasped. of course. the position of the hand changes: but iS makes all the difference in the world be- tween awkwardness and gracefulnesS when the hand Is first extended if it is thrust forward in the manner of two men shaking hands
 One of the most heautiful objects in art or nature is a woman who has assumed q really graceful sitting posture. The Teia- tive freedom of women in thlS country has almost caused them to lose sight of the art of repose Tn their desire to as sune the position of utter ease When the figure of the sitter is slowed to- sprawl ever SD little the effect becomes almost displeasing. Many women have fallen into the habit Of throwing them selves into a chair. apparently utterly careless of the position they assume In the effort to escape prfmness they go tp the other extreme.
 The most natural and easy position that A woman can assume in chair iS the upright one where the feet and knees gre kept close together. There iS nothing strained or unnatural about it. The head Is held erect. and the figure is thrown ever so slightly forward. This Ia one of the pastures that the old masters loved to paint In portraits. and the easy grace of the model Is shown without the strained and unnatural boise so often assumed with prtmness
 It Is tbe graceful woman who Is remem- bered the longest of sll among the beau tiful women. Somehow the memory of the color ot the eyes and hair. of the complexion, of the perfection of form. all slip away from us: but we retain the image of the easy and natural poise and inherent gracefulness.

FRAUD AND GRAFT

The Republican has been engaged for some time in the discouraging task of leading one of it's evening contemporaries along paths of hon esty in the matter of telegraphic news It cannot be said that the efforts of The Republican have been crowned with success. They have re- suited in making the contemporary more judicious for day or two at time The reform is only partial and superficial
 The contemporary straightway re sorts to the practise of fraud upon it's readers by setting before them "embalmed." "decomposed." canned" and "dessicated' telegraph" to say nothing of some SO ancient and rotten as to invite the attention of the sanitary authorities.
 The Republican, which believes that all newspaper readers should he treated fairly and protected against fraud and graft in all forms. and de- spairing of the reform of it's con temporary. finds it necessary to label and describe its neighbours fake tele- graph.

 The question of graceful carriage has resolved itself Into problem of lines. There should he no line of the form that makes sharp angle with the other lines of the figure. There are a great many women who have thoroughly mastered the art Of descending a staircase; but there are few who give any thought to their possible appearance when ascending. The head should be held erect and the shoulders well back. It Is the pronounced stoop forward that causes the trouble with the skirts
 The head should he kept well up. for as soon as 1t is allowed to droop forward all the lines of the figure lose their hsr- mony and q sort of chaos. or the chaotic figure. is the result. Many women lower their heads when they start to ascend stairs. just ss though they were in hurry 10 get to the top, and they arrive breathless and spent from the rush. Many of them grasp the skirts from either side and make Hurried rush that Is anything but graceful.
 For some reason 1t seems very difscuit for women to assume and keep a natural upright boise for any great length of time. The inevitable tendency is to

Hands Need Attention.

~ IRIS of today are apt to pay too much attention to their face and N clothing and forget the hands. The hands are deserving of great care. It is not necessary thnt the manicure should be paid a visit each week. for much can he done at home. Every time the hands are washed the cuticle about the nails should be gently rubbed down with an orange stick.
 The nails should he filed and shaped each day. Cucumber jelly or cold crea m is very beneficial to the hands when they gre treated each evening. Powdered pumice should he instantly applied to every discoloration. The rubber nail brush Is decidedly the best. bristles being too stir and liable 10 bruise the tender cuticle.

 The rsnlly wise thing to do is to order the new spring suit quite early. informa- ton regarding styles Is not needed so much regarding the spring suits as In other clothes. and a chance Is worth talk ing.
