losing switch, and pretended to faint,
and left the platform, and she didn't

remembered Of Pixies Peak was that
she lost her back comb there and when
asked to write of her impressions Of

sion was that her hair never acted so
awful before, and did Daysey Wayne

with hair it was fit for a bird nest

wouldn't be glad to trade her fame for

Then she went to bed, and dreamed
that all the great women the world has

young girls and boys who have had
good educations find it simpler to talk
in the expressive slang of the day and
pay very little attention to English as
it should be spoken.
"Children should be taught to speak
carefully and to pronounce every word
distinctly. There should be breath
enough behind the voice to support it
and make it carry without straining
the vocal chords and there should be
the constant reminder at home that
1t is worth while having a pleasant
voice even if one never expects to
sing.
Girls reiterate the same adiectives
time after time, because they have no
choice Of words. For instance: Isn't
it lovely? pet phrase used with
equal enthusiasm about a baby, new
hat, a box of candy, magnificent

edy, too, for whooping cough, Group, sore
lungs, asthma, throat troubles, etc.

WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS.

w THEN two women meet for the
wv first time they have a hard
time getting acquainted until
some mention is made of HAIR Then
they clasp hands over a mutual woe,
and swim right out together
Even the Perfidy of Man is not full of
conversational possibilities.
The sympathy that develops over this
topic is so we'll understood by the wom
en- that hair switch waved by a wom
an on a train as a signal of distress will
bring other women flying to her aid. 1t
is more potent than lodge pin worn by

Daysey Mayme Appleton had been in
troduced to a very distinguished wom-

the unseen and mysterious, and who
used wor0s of so many syllables that
one of them. if put in,a chopping bowl
and chopped up, would furnish the or
binary mortal with words for a week s
conversation
Daysey Mayme was on mental tip
toe. She brought up every subject OF
which she knew nothing, and the High
Brow Lady tossed the ban back by
talking of things so lofty that they
made Daysey Mayme's eyes blink.
Daysey Mayme was beyond her depth
and began to founder. She started
something about the fundamentalism of
all superconsciousness when she saw
that the High Brow Lady was losing
her hair.
"your hair" she began, but got no
further.
The High Brow Lady did all the talk
ing thereafter, and within five minutes
had told Daysey Mayme that her souls
longing was for more hair.
Her hair was like bristles in a dry
climate, and came uncurled in a damp
climate, and was sticky before washing,
and slid all over her head after it was
washed, and men hated false hair, but

she can," unused Miss Ferguson
looking over her green and white

ideas into practice.
Most women think that they have
accomplished that end when they have
spent a large part of each day in
identifying themselves.
THAT is a beginning of course, "
laughed the young star, but they for
get that beauty is not merely a ques-
ton of clothes and that the most ex-
quiste creation can't make up for the
lack of other charms, a beautiful voice
for instance.
II should make 1t almost a criminal
offense for a woman to have a hideous
speaking voice. There is absolutely no
excuse for it, because any voice can be
made reasonably pleasant and agree
able unless there is an absolute physi-
cal defect in the physical formation.
