A recent magazine article tells of 4
woman of 40 who finds a photo of her
self taken at 20, and in the first illum-
mating glance at it is Mortified at the
changes that have taken place in her
in twenty years that have passed. She
carries the photograph to her room,
props it in front of her mirror, anu
proceeds to take stock of herself She
does not pass an altogether happy
hour But it does her good. She goes
to her physician to find how she may
remedy the blemishes, that she has
let time thrust upon her.
There is no need for a woman to lose
all the charm of her youth. Nine Sarah
Bernhard, now touring this country,
is proof of this.
At 81, her voice, her gestures, her
figure, her step, have all the charm
and grace of a young girls. But most
women let the graces Of youth slip
from them, and then when gone, make
frantic efforts to regain them.
With many women there seems to be
a settled notion that with the coming
of age must come certain signs Of age.
They accept the fact with all the resig-
nation they can muster. But much If
this idea is untrue. Certain signs of
age cannot be avoided, but many can
be altogether, and others prevented
from making their appearance until
much later than is usually supposed.
The trouble is that with the coming
of years, women slip into indolent
habits. They are not alive all over us
they were when young. If they will

Bernhard is as alive as young girl
She is interested in all the things of
the day She hasn't let her body get
lazy. She has kept it right up to the
mark, and so, though she is 81, she
does not look it, nor does she feel it.
The woman whose photograph was
shock to her had let herself get lazy.
She had kept up to some extent, ment-
ally; but she had let her body slip into
INDECENT habits. She was getting stout,
her hair was turning gray, her back
becoming stopped, she couldn't go uD-
stairs without putting and blowing.
Some of these things could have been
prevented entirely; some could have
been held at bay much longer, as her
physician told her. Under his direc-
ton, she Immediately went to work 70

hard fight. How much better to have
kept herself in trim as she went along.
And this is what woman should do
Youth is a desirable thing. And the
matter of looks is not the most inn
portant part, though this is worth
while. But it is the spirit of youth
that makes for joy in the world, and a
woman should hold fast to this. She
will be the happier for it, so will those

full looks as far as possible, by holding
fast to the joyous spirit of youth, by
combining with this the experience
and ripened judgment that come with
the passing years, she can make her
self most delightful person.

FAIRY TALES.

Like those we loved of old;
The ones we used 20 think were true
The stories mother told!
When / was just q little chap,
AS soon as 1t was night
I'd climb up into mothers lap
And she would hold me tight
And tell of fairies, giants, and
OF warriors brave and bold
And ne-er have tales seemed half sc
grand
AS those that mother told,
Tale after tale she'd tell--and then,
When she would say she'd done,
I'd always make her start again
And tell another one;
Until, at last, all tired out,
My eyes would lose their hold
On wakefulness-=3' 4 dream about
The tales that mother told.
Then. by and by. there'd come a knock,
And she'd let father in,
And as she pointed to the clock,
He'd grin a sickly grin:
His business kept him late, he swore,
And he'd explain and scold
Till mothers tales looked pale before
The stories father told!
