HEADGEAR OF FRENCH WOMEN
All Kinds Of Fantastic Ornaments
Used 20 Cover Heads for Eve
ming Wear.

A well known Paris painter gave
lecture . few days ago on the man
ner in which women covered their
heads with all kinds Of fantastic orna'
ments in the evening. He said that
It was q pity when hair had so much
expression in wave and color to con-
ceal 90 much beauty beneath so-called
fashionable accessories.
All the time this gentleman was ex-
pressing his views on this subject the
audience was much amused ut the
presence Of q beautiful actress famous
for her exaggerated head dresses.
On this occasion she wore q cap OF
gold and white brocade with q high
mass Of white aigrettes extending
around the front from ear to ear. From
tho center Of her forehead stood q
black aigrette almost tow feet high
held by an enormous cabOchon in cut
jot. Whether this lady viii henceforth
follow the conferencier's suggestion
remains to b. seen. But It ID SAID
that we shall soon be wearing a rose
and little else IN the hair.-Geutle'

Advice to Girls.

ne 1OuuB WOuCu ShAAoIAou
Association sends out the follow
ing good advice to farmers
daughters, in particular, think
ing that as they are more unac-
customed to the ways of the city,
they are apt to be more confid-
ing, and thus apt to fall into the
hands of evil people. Girls
should take this advice seriously,
and heed it. Recently a girl was
almost entrapped in one of our
best business buildings by assist
ing a woman who was apparent
ly taken seriously i'll, to a doc
tors Office.
The advice referred to is as
follows:
Girls should never ask the
way of any but officials on duty,
such as policemen, railway Of
ficials or postmen.
Girls should never stay to
help a woman who apparently
faints at their feet in the street,
but should Immediately call a
policeman to her aid.
Girls should never accept an
invitation to join Sunday school
or Bible class given them by
strangers, even if the strangers
are wearing the dress of sisters
or nuns or are in clerical attire.
Girls should never go to an
address given them by astranger.
Girls should never go with a
stranger, even if the stranger is
dressed as a hospital nurse, or
believe stories of their relatives
having suffered accident or hav-
ing been taken i'll suddenly, as
this is a common device to kid
nap girls.
Girls should never accept
candy, food, a glass of water or
smell flowers offered to them by
strangers. Neither should they
buy scents or food or candy at
their doors. Any of those things
may contain drugs.
Girls should never take situa-
tions without first making in
quiries through a society active
or affiliated in travellers aid work.
Girls should never go to any
large town even for one night
without knowing of a safe
lodging"
Plans are under way to have
the above words of caution posted
in every railway and street car
station in the United States,
that our girls may be warned of
the dangers awaiting them while
travelling.

that same night dined at common tables on plain
and scanty food, without cake or wine or flow
ers, but with loving husbands and smiling chill
dren and now and then friend!
Do you want to know what was the matter
with that woman? She had the worst ailment to
which humanity is heir. Worse than tubercu-
losis worse than paresis, worse than the small
pox or cholera. She had the awful disease Of
SELFISHNESS. She thought that the way to
be happy was to pamper herself-to dress richly,
to live luxuriously, to spend money. She
thought that happiness can be BOUGHT.
Now you know, of course that it can't; that
there isn't more deceptive folly in the world
than this notion that happiness can be BOUGHT.
AS matter of fact happiness has to be
EARNED. Earned by work, by unselfishness,
by service; earned by the free giving of happi-
ness to others. Her $51 didn't bring happiness
"a hundredth of the sum would have supplied
amply all that she got by spending the $51. It
bought no respect. It bought no noto4iety be-
yond the idle curiosity of the moment. It was
just an evidence of the impotence of money to
command the worth while human values
Money we must have of course to help in
doing what needs to be done. For money is
symbol of power and power an essential of ex-
istence. But money isn't all; as the example Of
this poor rich woman shows, it often is very lit
tie; pathetically tragically little It often mocks
with biting irony the mortal who makes of it
