INTERESTING PAGE FOR WOMAN AND THE HOME
WRITING A GOOD NOTE
AN ACCOMPLISHMENT
Every Little Girl Should Be Taught to
Write Graceful Aeknowl-
edSments.

| Not very long ago heard a very dis
tinguished, cultured man say: Il re-
ceiyed a note today from an elderly
lady-a friend of my dear mother-and it
was SO beautifully and simply written
that 1t was joy to read 1t. Why aren't
girls taught nowadays to write a grace
full, well-expressed. Iegible note?'
Now, as to answering him-first Of all,
some modern girls are taught this very
thing. They are for the most part
daughters of the very rich who can at
ford well-educated and worldly-wise gov
ernesses for their children. Young girls
Of this class learn to write good note
Just as they learn modern languages and
music, for it is recognized as being one
of the finest accomplishments (and most
necessary for woman who will enter
the best society, both here and abroad.
But there are other girls-girls whose
parents are not of the finest type-girls
whose parents have come from the ranks
of the pIainest people-girls whose par
ents do not think very much about their
daughters complishments-girls who
are completely out Of their parents con.
troll, oh! there are every so many of
these last-snd 1t is these girls, who, be-
ing naturally bright and quick enough,
have yet to learn the value of this old
fashioned accomplishment
How many times have you heard.

Of coincidence to poor Mary Jones' but
don't for the life of me know what
to say" or II ought to have acknowl-
edged these gifts week ago, but I hate
writing notes. for / write such stiff, hor-
rid ones" Phrases like these are COM
mon. They ought to be uncommon.
Begin When You Are Little.
The easiest way to learn to write notes
is to begin when you are little. Every
little girl should be taught that she must
acknowledge, as pleasantly as she knows
how, any gift or favor.
The mother must help and criticise. She
can also tighten the labor considerably II
she provides really pretty note paper and
sees that the chid's pen is easy to write
Nth. A little desk for her very own
makes note writing quite a beautiful pas
time, instead of a laborious task.
AS she grows older, the young girl will
Keep to her habits, so carefully fostered.
She will have monogramed paper now
and a larger desk. and sealing wax and all
the pretty appurtenances for correspond
ence. 1t will be easy for her to write
pleasant note of thanks or Of invitation or
of coincidence, with a flavor of her own in
dividuality in 1t 20 give il distinction.
And II you are a grown-up, who has
been so unfortunate as not to have such
a training, begin now. before you write
any more awkward. commonplace effu-
sions. Write and rewrite on tablet papar
until you have composed a really worth
while note.
Writing a good note isn't an easily ac-
quired accomplishment, but once obtained
1t will be Of great service to you.

Prisoner Says Escape from Work.

Occoquan has no charms for John

recent visit to the Districts workhouse
he was not given the usual time Off al

the statue. He also designed the tall
pedestal on which the statue is mount
ed.
This monument, which was unveiled
on March 81, 1896, is conceded to be the
greatest equestrian statue in the world.
One critic has said of 1t: THE Colleoni
stands today for the most magnificent
equestrian statue of all time. 1t fully
deserves this reputation, since in no
other monument are both horse and
rider conceived and composed with such
unity
Both figures express nobility and
dignity. The arched neck, the raised
hoof. the champing mouth. Of the
charger are perfection. The poise Of
Colleoni himself. the pose of his head,
the stern expression of his face, show
courage and ability.
What is the one thing about this
statue, however, that makes it seem so
much alive? 1t is just this. When We
look at the horse and rider We feel
that the very next moment with the
very next step. they are going to walk
off their high pedestal into space.
The whole statue is full of energetic
character and bold life, and powerful
in it's effect.

PAPER NAPERY COMING
BACK INTO FAVOR

Owing chiefly to its early use in cheap
restaurants, it has been very difficult for
paper napery to become popular. Now,
however, because of the advantages it
offers, under some of the conditions that
modern ways of living are imposing upon
the housewife, it is coming more and more
into favor. Women who cannot always
afford to be very fastidious about the
table appointments, as well as those who
can, are finding these paper napkins more
and more useful.

State Sauna MOneu

In another column OF this edition of the Tribune
Will be found a.ncws story dealing with the retiring
of q large amount Of state bonds by the present
administration. This action was taken by the audit
ing board at u meeting held yesterday, and speaks
we'll for the administration which has been given the
state for the past year. By this move the state is
saved practically a thousand dollars a month in inter
est. In addition to this record made by the admin
%istration, the floating Indebtedness Of the state, due
q year ago, has been cleaned up and the state is now
In better financial condition than has been the case
In q number of years.
1T Will be remembered that during tie session OF
the legislature it was urged that 100000 that was
available in the state sinking fund should be put
into the general fund, from which appropriations
could be made. but Governor Hanna objected to that
process. 1t will be seen that there was wisdom in
his objection; the money was to be appropriated for
the institutions Of the state; the institutions are
still running without financial embarrassment and
the state has been saved thousands of dollars as a
result Of the retirement of the bonds, which would
have been impossible to such all extent had the APP
preparations above mentioned been made.
