DUELINo SCARS FASHIONABLE


So fashionable has 1t become In Ger
many for students to display at least
one scar. the souvenir of a duel. that
there has now arisen quite an opportH-
nifty for skillful and INSCRIPTIONS sur
geons in the making of artificial scars
which will sufficiently decorate the
youthful Countenance with marks OF
savage alterations without the risk
of participation in a genuine duel.
The commercially acquired wounds
of honor have the advantage over those
obtained in actual combat that they
may be placed where the patient wills
instead of falling at some inconvement
spot where they distort the manly Wis
age instead of adding the last touch Of
fascination to its charms. A dashing
slash across the cheek is the fayorite
situation for a scar of this kind.

TEACHING WOMEN TO FARM
Lord Wolseley's daughter and only
child, who has inherited her fathers
title by special remainder and is now
'viscountess Wolseley, seems likely to
become almost as much OF a heroine
with the English public as her father
was a hero. She is a serious minded
woman and has devoted herself to the
agricultural school for women which
she established at Glynde. in Sussex.
Her work has attracted so much atten-
ton that recently the ancient London

an honorary membership in their "wor-
shipful company the first ever given
