be charming bear fruit in our de

Simple Ruels.
Every woman should dress &C
cording to her height, complexion
and figure. In order to do this,
be sure that you have a careful
inventory of exactly what your
height. complexion and figure are.
Before going on your shopping
tour. TAKE ONE GOOD LOOK IN
YOUR TRUTHFUL MIRROR.
The tall woman must avoid long
lines of an exaggerated sort and
stripes. even as the short one must
refuse to wear large plaids. If you
are In any way different from the
average, don't emphasize that diff
ference until It amounts to an alb
normaIlty,
The texture and color of your
clothes should harmonic with
your complexion For instance, If
YOU have very high color you will
of a surety not wear white.
A very red face above white gar
ments looks grotesque. A pale
complexion is emphasized by dark
material.
Now, if your palior is your

from the kitchen and skinned milk

an economical way. But be careful to
have no acid or soap water thrown in
the slops.

leaning boards on the scantling lap

How to Be an Inventor.

A retired professor of mechanical
engineering was called upon to de.
liver a few lectures on invention to
the senior engineering classes. His
first injunction was that when one at
tempts to devise a machine to do a
certain thing one must consider direct
ly the fundamental operations to be
performed and must wipe from the
mind all existing methods and all pre-
conceived notions. He stated that one
so-called inventor attempted, in the
days of the scythe, to invent a NOW.
ing machine. Being familiar only
with the scythe, he designed a horse
drawn machine which would swing a
scythe. He simply replaced the man
by mechanism. 1t is needless to
say that his invention did not survive.
The problem of efficiently cutting hay
and grain was not successfully solved
until 1t was attacked by man with
an open mind, and he devised the knife

Truly Versatile Postman.

The most versatile postman of any
time, writes a correspondent, was
probably the late H. A. Major, who
was for many years a familiar figure
in the neighborhood of st. Clement
Danes and the Strand, London, Eng
land. In his spare time, until he lost
his voice, he was an actor-he was
one Of the original cast of Black
Eyed Susan" He wrote innumerable
farces and some thirteen dramas,
most Of them successfully produced.
He painted pictures, and obtained the
king of Italy's medal for his 'lifelike
representation Of fruit" and in add
ton he achieved more than a local
reputation as a violinist. Many Of
his pictures are hung in the wards Of
King College hospital
