 If your brovvs meet above the nose, have expert (and be sure you have an expert do it) remove the hairs by electrolysis. Or. better still, try this home method.

The skirt may have tunie of its own or any con frasting material and the bodice may foundation. The dropping shoulder effect is employed very gracefully and the sleeves are cut in one piece and inserted without any fitness.
 iIt requires 5 yards of 44-inch satin to make the dress, with yards of I3- inch deep lace for the hounce for the skirt.

Why do men marry who find their greatest happiness away from their wives in the bosom of their clubs Why do men build beautiful homes if it is their choice to live out of them or sigh for love when they seem to be able to live such jolly lives without it? In his sparkling days, a man sees very little of a club. His attention is absorbed by his sweetheart. If an evening passed without his seeing her his mind was in a state of chaotic rest Iessness. If they had a little misun- deFstanding which stretched over a fortnight, his business suffered for want of his application to it.
 E1veh the brightest of man cannot we'll put their minds upon two subjects which interest them vitally at one and the sa1he time. But how marriage may change many 8 man. The honey moon is scarcely over ere he finds the evening at home decidedly irlk@ some. Of course his dearie looks her sweetest, and is a thousand times more charming and dear to him than ever she was before, yet he hasn't the same inclination to hold her hands, draw her to a nearby sofa and slip an arm about her waist, casting furtive glances at the door lest her mother surprise them. They repair to the parlor after leaving the dfnner-tab1e.
 She plays the same old love mel odies for him and sings them quite as sweetly. The edge, however, is worn off their novelty. He does not even hear them. His thoughts are far and away from them. He is wondering if the boys at the club have made up their minds to go to the Maine woods for a weeks sport; or if they have abandoned the pFojeet. For three years lie has stayed home at the request of his sweetheart. He determines he will have to go this time, If it takes a leg. When he breaches the subject to her, there are sobs and tears.
