A few months ago 1 questioned il meny
people really see trees. l fancy that
even fewer ever really see grass ana
appreciate the infinite variety in the tex
ture of the lovely carpet which nature
weaves for her world.
Such book as the would-be humorist
pre- posed might open the eyes of many
half-blind folks to see what they have
always trampled on unsee.ngly, and thus
give them a new interest in their walks
abroad
Except that these would probably re
the very people who wouldn't read such
book.
Myself I am no deep nature stude t,
about the subject. but have learned to
look for and delight in a few variet es OF
grass.
For one kind. there's the tall. wavy
brown grass. almost as lovely In its
graceful undulations and faint pastel COL
orings as any wild flower.
And then there are the funny little
squatty, clumpy grasses, quite as di .er-
ent from the tall, undulating variety as a
hippopotamus from a giraffe.
i do not believe any one who has lived
by the sea can have missed the beauty
of marsh grass. Sometimes I think the
ripple of the wind-swept marsh grasi Is
as wonderful as the waves of the ocean
itself
The common or garden, variety of
grass. OF which lawns are made, and
which is all grass means to most peo-
plc Is not the less beautiful because Of
It's commonness. I do not know how
most people feel about 1t. but for myself
a perfectly kept lawn is full as pleasing
as Il fine flower bed. How lovely an
restful a sight it is in its undrlating
smoothness, its cvenness. it's freshne $
after rain, its-there, 1 had almost said
emerald greenness,' but why desc ibe
the greater by the lesser? I'm sure an
emerald is not half 80 green as a finely
kept lawn; far better call the emerald
grass green
Surely, even the man to whom a prim-
rose by the rivers brim a yellow prim-
rose is and nothing more could not have
failed to look with appreciation on a fine
lawn.
Still, l don't know. Perhaps he was
an ancestor of the would-be humorist to
whom a book on how to know the grass
is the very height and acme OF humorous
absurdity.

NEW NOTIONS FOR
MIDWINTER WEDDINGS

Aristocratic weddings have been for
some time tending toward a standpoint
OF elaborate simplicity. and at present
all their arrangements. though very cost
Iy, are outwardly as plain as possible.
One of the most fashionable weddings
which recently took place was character
lied by the use of only snow white flow
ers for the decorations in the BRIDE $
house. All the tables were covered with
lovely white flowers, which were in very
fiat low vases, the only raised effec
being given by tall silver vases filled
with white smiiax. The effect was Won
derfully charming and seemed to har-
monize with the brides youth and
beauty. At this and several recent we'd
dings it was noticed that the bride and
bridegroom stood at the end of the room
farthest from the door to receive their
friends, the brides mother StandinS at
the first door and shaking hands ifrst
as the guests passed ill.,
This young bride also departed from
the old going away custom which de-
mands that the bride shall go. straight
to her carriage when she has changed
her dress, and in this case-and her ex-
ample has been followed by several other
fashionable brides-she returned To .he
reception room and said goodbye to her
relations and intimate friends When
she entered her carriage. however, the
Quaint old-fashioned custom of throwing
a white satin slipper after it was strictly
observed, and amid laughter and merry
voices 1t was gayly throw after her.
Rice is now displaced In faVor OF
charming little silver horseshoes made or
silver paper. These are handed around
from Silver horseshoe boxes. and not
only have a pretty effect, but do great
deal less 6amagc than rice.
The latest idea is that the S~astlka
is going to be adopted In place of the
little horseshoes by forthcoming smart
bride. Thousands OF them are to be
fashioned Of silver paper and thrown
after her to bring her luck TIE his ory
of this little luck charm dates back to
the earliest times, and the actual name
is said by some writer's to mean diNin-
ity'' and by others to be derived from
two Sanscrit words. meaning well
being" However that may be, the SYM
Dol has been in use as a charm among
many nations as far back as the bronze
ages.
In wedding cakes there can be but little
change-the brides favorite flower or the
bridegroom profession, II he be in the
army or navy, are the more often chosen
as designs,
At some fashionable weddings the
coats of arms of the two families are
on the cake. or sometimes the lnteriaced
initials of the brides Christian and the
bridegroom's Christian and surnames.
Modern brides very frequently design
their own cakes, but there seems to De
little change of fashion in the little
bridal boxes in which they send 1t away
to their friends.

ABUNDANCE OF SOFT,
WAVY, BEAUTIFUL HAIR.
Never Any Falling Hair, Itching
Scalp or Dandruff Ii You
Use a little Danderine.

TO be possessed Of head of heavy,
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy,
wayy and free from dandrutf IS mere
" matter of using a little Dander-
inc.
The very first application cleanses
the scalp, stops itchiness, destroys
and dissolves every particle of dam
druff and prevents the hair from fall
ing out.
II is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots OF 1t. Just
get a o5-cent bottle of knowlton' S
Danderine now-all drug stores rec
ommend it-apply a little as directed
and within ten minutes there will be
an appearance of abundance; fresh
ness, fluffiness and an incompatible
gloss and luster and, try as you will.
YOU cannot find a trace Of dandruff
or falling hair; but your real surprise
will be after about two weeks use.
when you will see new hair-hne
and downy at first-yes-but really
new hair-sprouting out ali over your
scalp-Danderine is, we believe. the
only sure hair grower, destroyer OF
dandruff and cure for itchy scalp, and
it never fails to stop falling hair a.
once.
If you want to prove how pretty
and soft your hair really is, moisten
cloth with a little Danderine and
carefully draw it through your hair
taking one small strand at time.
Your hair will be soft, glossy And
beautiful in just a few moments--a
delightful surprise awaits every one
who tries this.

EYES GET FIRST ATTENTION.

There is no such disguise as that
Of the eyes. IF We want to get an
impression Of . person's face We have
to look at the eyes. Won will find
this in any railway carriage or pub
lie conveyance. Yon are, interested
in q face; you fix your eyes on the
opposite eyes. If the eyes meet both
fail; the eyes drop apolegetically, for
the inquiry is too intimate. The two
people know well enough, though
neither may be artists, that you can
not get an impression of the face by
looking at the chin, or the forehead,
or the nose; you must look straight
at the eyes--the window of the soul
and the face becomes a recognize
able unit. The best disguise---as
burglars know--is the mask that
covers the eyes only.

WIDOW WOULD HAVE TOLD.
WIN =. II. sothsrn's Father Was Ger
tain Bacon Did Not Write
shakespeare Plays.

E. II. Sothern contributes an ar
ticle. on the great Shakespeare-Ba-
con controversy in the Munsey. He
says, in part: Il recall that when q
boy with my father in London ! one
day picked up at an old book shop q
paper covered volume which bore
on unusual cover design. In the
center was a huge. kettle, under
which was a roaring fire. Emerging
from the kettle were Shakespeare's
head and shoulders. Above this de-
sign was Shakespeare's name, and
the bullying side Of the kettle bore
the words boiled down. In short,
Shakespeare Boiled Down was a lit
tie book containing brief summaries
of the plays. An earlier owner OF
the volume-evidently an enthusiast
tic Baconian-had run his pen
through the first and last Of the
three words, making the title read
Boiled Bacon
Taking the book home, l hand
ed it to my father, and asked for his
opinion.
"sIt is nonsense, Ned-all nom
sense. 1t is utterly impossible, had
Bacon written the plays, that the &C.
cret would not have leaked out. For
example-Bacon had a wife, and her
a faithless one. Take every line that
has come down to us from the days
of Shakespeare, and you can't lay
your finger on a word or phrase that
can be twisted, pinchcd or tortured
into the faintest suggestion that Ba-
con was the author of the plays
which are credited to Shakespeare.
That the real authorship could nave
been kept a secret would be a greater
mystery--more incxplicable-than
the Sphinx"

SHE DIDN'T KNOW THE JUDGE
Therefore the Buyer Of Antiques OBJ
tanned the Old Fender for
Half .Prlcs.

Eben Googins keeps . small, lit
tered shop on Main street. His mod
est sign reads, Second Hand Fur
niture," instead Of the more impos-
ing legend, "Antiques,' but his un-
derstanding Of the psychology Of the
antiquary is worthy Of a wider field.
"What is the price Of this?" asked
a customer, hraced for the conven-
tional war of words with pawnbrok-:
ers and antique dealers, whom she
had grown expert in beating down.
But her challenge did not draw the
conventional retort from Eben. He
fingered the wrought-iron fender she
had %unearthed from between a mas
sive and valueless veneered high-boy
and a broken spinning-wheel, and
said, with a covert and calculating
eye upon her:
'Did you ever know Judge Allen
of F~oxcroft?"
Judge Allen, the great man Of a
little town, who had inherited a
widely famed collection Of antique
furniture, and had enlarged it gen.
erously, was known to the bargain
hunter by reputation only.
"You YER not acquainted with
the judge? Then the price of the
fender is 3d." 81
"But why?" asked the bargain
hunter, wondering whether she was
being favored with an example Of
Yankee hnmor or Yankee shrcwd-
ness, and bewildered by this abrupt
method Of closing a trade.
"If you had known the judge
Eben enlightened her patiently, with
a sly CLEAN reminiscent of past tri.
umphs in his faded eyes, II could
have asked you six"
