The services at our church last Sun

p. m. Rev. Calls preached the fifth
sermon IN the series on Gods Message

NadA, Partisan Artist, Explains Secret
10 His Many Women Admirers.
NOT A GIFT OF NATURE.
Declares It Is . Complete Science
which Pair Sex Should Study 20 Do
Selves Justice.

Paris.-Nada, the artist, who is
thought the finest Partisan delineator
of the beautiful lines of women, has
given his women admirers in the last
issue of the La Vie Heureuse some
good advice on the cultivation of grace
fulness.
Grace, he asserts, is not merely a
gift of nature. It is also a complete
science, which every woman can and
should study to do herself real justice.
Should Follow Physical Culture.
In order to attain to the maximum of
graeefulness, NADIA insists that every
woman, however gifted naturally,
should follow some form of physical
culture.
In replying to the critics, who hold
that this years fashionable silhoutte
and characteristic curved pose of the
body are inartistic, NADIA says that no
woman can fail to be graceful if she
follows six rules:
''First-When in company adopt
rather a remote air. Don't show too
eager an interest in what people say.
Let it be thought that you are enig.
matte. Nothing succeeds so well as
this.
'Seeond-Speak as little as possible,
unless Won say something precise
Above all, speak without gestures,
which are the enemy of grace in con-
versation.
'Third-When at table taste rather
than eat. Eat with studied gestures,
so as to show Of the hand and arm.
Smelling Flowers Adds to Grace.
'Fourth-When receiving at home
or when in a box at the theater, have
few roses with long stalks at hand
Inhale them from time to time. This
movement of gathering up flowers
close to the face is of never fading
grace.
"Fifth-Study the sound of youl
voice. So many women lose part of
their charm as soon as they open
their mouth. A voice of half a pitch
low without being grave, may be OBJ
tanned with very little trouble, and is
infinitely seductive.
"Sixth-Let the five foregoing rules
be carried out in the most natural way
without the smallest effort pereeptible;
for if effort be revealed by your way
of inhaling the flowers or putting a
glass to your lips, better give it NJ
and 90 back to mother nature"

ANOTHER BIG BOOST FOR TIE
LOUISE JUVENILE HOME, 6124
ADA STREET, CHICAGO.

Kind friends have been holding for
many weeks indignation meetings dis
eussing homes for Colored children. It
seems as if the Louise Juvenile Home
and its bright prospects of being a
larger institution is the cause of all
these meetings held by a few Of the
so-caIled important Colored people who
have just begun to wake up to the fact
that there are so many homeless Col
ored children on the streets of Chicago,
and no place where they can be prop
erly trained.
With all their sympathy for these
unfOrtunates they are not willing to
sacrifice a dime for their support,
neither would they open their homes
and take one in for fear of degrading
themselves, and with all the religion
we are supposed to have, the church
doors have been closed against them.
The Louise Juvenile Home was Wis
tied a few days ago by the Curran
Legislative Committee, investigating
homes and charities. Mr.. CurTan,
chairman of the committee, was de-
lighted with the conditions in this
home; also Mr.. Mooney, the state g at
t0Eney for the legislators, admired the
neatness of the home, and said the
children were clean and well fed, and
Sl,A - ---,- oov,I-n&a5 ,,,ora og ma lava
family than an institution. He further
stated that they had been into so many
filthy places that it was really a treat
to come into a clean and neat place
like the Louise Home.
He expressed himself to Mrs. Nc
Donald, Tegretting very much any I'M
Just criticism that appeared in the
newspapers because they were well
pleased with the home, but they could
not control the newspapers. Mr..
Mooney, in talking to Mr.. Wilfred s.
Reynolds, superintendent of the Hi
nois Childrens' Home and Aid Society,
said again that he was sorry for the
newspaper criticism and recommended
the home very highly. Mr.. Charles
Yirden, investigator for the Board of
Administration at Springfield, spent
two hours in the Louise Juvenile Home
last Saturday and was delighted with
all conditions and told Mrs. Mcdonald
that Mr.. CurTan, the chairman of the
Curran Committee, had also recon-
mended the home to him. Mr.. Virden
complimented Mrs. Ethel Simpson, the
present matron, in the highest terms.
Mrs. Mcdonald wishes to thank those
who held the Indignation meeting from
the bottom of her heart for interesting
themselves so much and being the
means of making the home so popular
with such a grand body Of gentlemen
as the Curran Investigating Committee.
Remember, friends, all liars have their
part in the lake Of FIRE and every knock
is q boost. Mrs. Mcdonald met the
committee and was never treated bet
ter by any one. They proved to be
great friends to the Louise Home and
the home win prosper by their visit.
Mrs. Mcdonald wishes to thank Mr..
Curran, Mr.. Mooney, Mr.. yirden and
especially Mr.. wilfred 8. Reynolds,
