ing young inside is what counts"
or course some persons would ar
que that a cold bath every morning
and no supper in the middle Of the
night would lead TO health and
youthful looks But Modjeskas adj
vice goes TO prove that every woman
must work out a course of life that
agrees with her and then stick to II.
Her occupation and tastes and con

Authors Queer Costume.

contemporaries describes the author
His hair was smooth and parted in
the middle and fell below the collar OF
his coat; he wore black flannel shirt,
with a curious knitted tie twisted in a
knot; had wellington boots, rather
tight, dark trousers, a pea jacket and a
white sombrero hat. But the most as

ladys sealskin cape, which he wore
about his shoulders, fastened at the
