How to Powder Hair.

The powdering of the hair, which is
more of a fashion in Paris than most
people realize, is deftly done and does
not give one the appearance Of having a
white wig.
Those who go in for beauty say that a
slight powder on the hair, especially at
the brow and ears. is vastly becoming to
the majority of faces. II should not be
done with vital, youthful hair that has
a brilliant color, but it is admirable on
hair that is slightly faded or partially
gray or a bit lifeless.
1t is sifted on lightly with a powder
puff and only the dead white can be used.
II there is any chance OF it showing up
in the day hours 1t is better not to use it,
although everyone claims that il is espe-
cially becoming under a thin veil.
At night it softens the face TO a re-
markable degree. But remember the vital
point about it: that it should not be used
on dark hair, or any kind that has much
color and vitality

has become in her enthusiasm and inter-
ests.
Now, let us take a look at the group
of sixty-year-old men. What a difference
even the best of them present as COM
pared with their wives and sisters of
the same age. The average man of sixty
you will find confined in all the habits
of old age. What little semblance of
youth he may feign, you will find as
sumed largely for business purposes.
Like the character Christopher Dallas,
which / portray in Years of Discre-
tion," he is at heart an old man, dread
ing the necessity of appearing young.
and utterly unable to keep up the game
the moment he is behind the scenes, -
so to speak. The average man of sixty,
yes, and of fifty, you find lacking in that
enthusiasm which makes the elderly
woman so charming and attractive. AS
a matter of fact, the man of fifty
or sixty has absolutely nothing attrac-
tive about him. either physically or mem
tally, while the woman of correspond
ing age Is, to my mind, at her very
best
Another Reason.
The other. and even more important,
reason why a man should marry a
woman some years older than himself
concerns itself with the essentially ma
ternal nature of woman's love. No mat
ter how wildly romantic her early love
for man may be, that love eventually
becomes maternal. To this rule there
are no exceptions, assuming, of course,
that We are now discussing the right
sort of women and the best and purest
conjugal love. The wOmans love that
does not after some years of marriage
become largely maternal is not worth
having, so that in the very nature of
things it is desirable for that reason, il
for no other, that a wife be somewhat
her husbands superior in years.
That we are overcoming our prejudices
in this respect we have abundant evil
dence every day of our lives. With the
increasing emancipation of woman and
with her steadily growing economic inde-
pendence and political Importance, We
find innumerable examples Of her def
ance of this superstition. 1t now scarce
ly creates comment when a woman mar
ries a man ten or fifteen years her junior,
whereas twenty-five or thirty years ago
the sensation such a thing created
amounted to little less than a public
scandal
That a woman should be years younger
than a man, is. after all, only one of the
many so-caIled man-made laws. That
dcmned by the intelligence OF modern
woman. She, this great, wonderful mod
ern woman, has declared that she, and
she alone, can settle the question of the
right age to marry.

AS manager for the Reds for three
years, Griff comes near knowing what he
is talking about.
Garry Hermann Is the most unjustly
abused man In baseball. declared Griffith
lately. Everybody seems to think he IS
the man who is responsible for the many
changes In the Cincinnati management.
He isn't. The directors and stockholders
of the club are the ones who have caused
all the trouble.
Hermann knows baseball from be-
ginning to end: he knows that a manager
cannot do good work when ha ndicapped
by higher officials who overrue him. And
while / was manager he always gave me
free rein; he let me run the club as
saw fit He never overruled me. he never
disputed my Judgment. and he fought for
me against outside interference.
But what had to buck is what every
other manager OF the team has had to
buck. That's the mixing In OF the Fleish-
man crowd. who control the stock. They
don't know anything about the inside part
OF baseball But they think they do. And
