CHURCH A NupsANcE9

It seems that ST. Paul isn't so saint
W as the name OF the city might indi-
cate. Or. In other words. 1t could be
said that unusual, IL not irreligious
ideas prevail among the elite Of Min
nesota's capital. There are good
grounds for making such statement.
In fact the foundation for the belief
entertained, is established in st.
Paurs most fashionable residence
district. In a section so select as to
be exclusive, on Summit avenue, the
ground Is not holy. but 1T is reserved
wholly for the very rich. Near some
of the mansions which house st. Paurs
aristocracy, it was proposed to erect
a church. Proposals TO build a house
Of God in that neighborhood met with
violent objections.
The erection of a religious edifice in
that section was strongly opposed. A
prominent citizen went before the
board Of aldermen and argued that
a church is o public nuisance because
IL is public building" Impressed by
the standing of the persons objecting.
even more than by the arguments pre-
scented, the aldermen OF st. Paul,
"constructively endorsed" the conten-
ton that "a church is a public nuIs-
ance, etc" They passed an ordinance
forbidddng the building Of any church.
es in the section along Summit ave-
nue. that is set apart for under the
circumstances one couldn't say con-
secrated to, wealth and fashion.
In the city of st. Paul. evidently,
steps toward heaven are not taken up
Summit avenue.

It was only the other day that d
local woman, visiting la the northern
part of the state, attended q neigh-

heard: "S'lute yer pardners; let 'er

PRIMPINe.

How many minutes should woman
be allowed daily for primping?
How often should she have an OPP
portunity to look at herself in the
mirror for the purpose of adjusting
her hair, fixing her neckpiece, and
powdering her nose?
Employees of women the world over
have worried about these questions
to little purpose. Rules which seem
to regulate the FITNESS of women have
failed universally. Sim foolish men
keep on trying to change woman's ma
ture.
In Chicago there is one man who
has too much sense to try the impos-
sible. That man is Commissioner of
Public Works McGann, who recently
issued an order that the women in his
office should have "all the time they
want to primp and plume"
No woman who isn't forbidden to
look at herself in the mirror cares
particularly about it. Commissioner
Mccain is enough OF diplomat to
know how to handle the fair sex.
His predecessor restricted the primp-
ing time to fifteen minutes a day
with disastrous results. He came
dangerously near having his hair torn
out.
Any lady who has had her hair
washed requires at least one hour out
Of eight to fix it--for one 'just can't
do anything with the hair after 1t has
been washed" And Just imagine a
lady in that predicament with only
fifteen minutes for hairdressing.
Commissioner McGann is evidently
deep student of human nature. His
example might well be emulated 5y
other men who face the primping
problem.

THE NEW MAN.

II all the boys in the country finally
turn their attention to those recrea-
tons and tasks outlined by the Boy
Scouts moyement--it begins to appear
that the next generation viii be com
posed In good measure Of a type Of
men who will destroy most OF the op-
portunities OF the cartoonist and the
humorigt.
The funny man, heretofore, in song
and storyin drama and cartoon-has
been the helpless man-the man who
pounded his finger when he tried to
drive nail--who took to strong drink
when he had to put UP stove pipe
who was as fish out of water when
he had to put the frying pan on the
fire.
This condition Of affairs was en-
pIoyed to great advantage by J. M.
Barrie in his delicious play, The Ad-
nnirabIe Crichton. He depicted a par
ty OF English men and women on
desert island, where they had been
cast by sinking ship. They were so
greatly dependent upon the one man
servant they had with them that all
the women In the party came very
near falling In love with the admir-
able Crichton, the manseryant--be-
cause he was the only man in the
company who knew how to do any
thing.

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL COLOR
BY COMMON GARDEN SAGE, a
SIMPLE REMEDY FoR DAM
DRuFF, FALLING, FAD
Ed, GRAY HAIR.

The old idea Of using sage for dark
ening the hair Is again coming in
vogue Our grandmothers used to
have dark, glossy hair at the age Of
seventy five, while our mothers have
white hair before they are fifty. Our
grandmotherS used to make sage
tea" and apply 1t to their hair. The
team made their hair soft and glossy,
and gradually restored the natural
color.
One objection to using such a prep
aration was the trouble OF making IT.,
especially as IT had to be made every
TWO or three days, on account Of sour
ing quickly. This objection has been
overcome. and by asking almost any
first class druggist for Wyath's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy the public
can get superior preparation Of sage.
with the admixture OF sulphur, another
valuable Sremedy for hair and scalp
troubles. Daily use Of this prepare
ton will not only quickly, but win AL
so stop the hair from falling out and
make 1t grow.
Get bottle from your druggist to-
day. Use It and see for yourself how
quickly dandrufr goes and gray hairs
vanish.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle and liz

A BRAVE WOMAN.

Perhaps the highest nobility of char
acter Is found only when poverty has
subjected men and women to its ter
ribie tests.
The current news columns have
something to say about Miss Phoebe
Couzins. who is reported i'll and PEN
niless in Washington lodging house.
An interview with Miss Couzins is
given. 1t Is heartening. in way, to
discover that she has no lamentation
to make She Is not frightened. Her
plight has no power to excite her
mind. There is. instead, calm rec
ignition of facts. AS another woman,
sheltered from the storm. might say,
1--WE are having severe winter" so
Phoebe Couzins says. II have no food
nor money"
1t would seem to be one of the iron
les Of life that this woman-advanced
in years-who has served the cause Of
women all her life-should come to
such straits I'm her old age. Her ca
reer has been marked by countless ef-
forts to better the condition of women.
Like other people who have tried val
1antIy to achieve things for others
she finds that there is very tardy help
for her in her hour of need.
Yet is will seem to a great many
brave-hearted people that Phoebe
Couzins has made great success Of
her life-that victory has come to her
with poverty. The test of a soul
comes when those circumstances
which seem to most as misfortunes
are most abundantly present. It was
Epictetus who evolved the philosophy
that a man cannot be harmed from
without-that he is only responsible
for those things which are within,
which he can control.
Miss Couzins-looking unafraid and
without bitterness at poverty and
old sge--is nobler figure than she
has ever been before.

OLD AGE AND ABILITY.

The United States is coming to be
more and more the land of young men.
The nation is coming to a greater APP
probation OF its old men who retain
their physical and mental vigor and
add their long and ripe experience
to mature judgment.
Justice Harlan at rs was old only in
years. He attended the sessions of
the United States supreme court more
regularly than many of the men who
are younger. His grasp of the prob
lens which faced the past generation,
as well as the present, made him all
most Indispensable to the nation.
