New York, March ~. - Votes for
women are not going to regenerate
the world, II woman remains the
same; II she stays sixteen years old
for twenty-five years; II she continues
to spend ten cents to ride down town
to buy something at a bargain for
nine cents; II she remains the same
taIlormade woman who spends so
much time powdering her face.
ut is nonsense TO say that the vote
is going TO do any great good In It,
self while the higher class woman
remains a little OF a toy and a great
deal OF a slave"
All OF which is Meyer London's
way Of stating an obvious fact which

New York.-This is the story of a couple which shall be nameless, be- cause of the prominence the man has attained.
 They had been deeply in love when they married. That was ten years ago. Much has happened in ten years, and in their case they had drifted apart. At first there were little scraps, mend ed by kiss and a few loving words.
 By degrees the rift became larger. She wanted the comfort, if not the lux uries of life, and told him many times of the motor cars and theater boxes she could have if she had married Tom, Dick or Harry instead of him. Once he used to weave stories of tomorrow, but tomorrow never came, and finally the friction became too much for him.
 Tho Separation and Sacrifice.
 You are never satisfied" he said after one of these quarrels. You have no belief in me. Perhaps I don't amount to much. We don't get on. You remain here and I'll find a place for myself. I'll let you have enough to keep you going-$25 week" She agreed to this joyfully, and in a few days he removed to furnished room not many blocks away. Each week she received an envelope with | the stipulated amount in it. Other | wise they lived as strangers.
 The man had only left himself enough out of his salary to keep him. self alive. There was no overplus for amusements, and his chief recreation was reading at the public library.
 The Pencil of Destiny.
 One evening, having finished his eve ming paper, he took up pencil and be- gan to draw on the edge. He had a sense of humor and was making a comic picture of something he had | just read. He was fond of drawing and had given much time to it before his marriage.
 Then he took a sheet of paper and drew several comic sketches, and they amused him so much that just for fun he sent one to a comic paper. It was accepted and the editor asked for more. He kept on drawing and in three years had attained a reputa- tion under the name of "Scorn."

Beauty Hints.

A little rouge carefully applied will often. freshen up the skin and give a bright, youthful appearance, but paint and powder, put on with brushes and slap-dash make most women look anything but charming. One might as well rub green cheese on ones face as to use gray-blue chalk on the eyelids-the effect is that of facial mildew.
 The same exercises that reduce flesh will put flesh on the thin, ema- ciated individual. The reason is that exercise, good diet and general hy- gienic living will create a normal con- dition. Swinging Indian clubs will do away with unnecessary fat on the arms, also the same treatment will cause angular arms to fill out with muscle and tissue. The motor car good food and lazy habits are the commonest causes of most of the cases of obesity. No woman is hap py who is carrying about twice as much weight as she should. No wom- an who is willing to do little work and practice self-sacrifice need suffer from an oversupply of adipose tissue

New Bordered FouIards.

Borders, which were just trif1e out for the last season or so, are coming back into favor. The em- broidered flouncings are always more or less in use, but just at present there is a showing of rich colored foulards with riotous borders or black and colors. One silk in dark American beauty has a border or large, black roses, about ten inches deep.~ The same border appears on white foulard. A Belgian blue sllk has a border of narrow vertical stripes of; bright magenta, almost f1f- teen inches deep. On another blue foulard a tropical growth of yellow and red and green flora and black ferns springs from narrow black band, while small black stars" are scattered over the blue sky. Suggest ing the far East is still another blue not quite so deep as the Belgian shade, the border of which is an oriental and conventional pattern oi dull tans and greens and black.

 ''He left over year ago."
 She rushed to the house where he had roomed. He left over a year ago." she was informed. Still the $50 arrived regularly.
 The Town of Tomorrow.
 In California lives a thin man who is something of cynfc. His reputa- tion as a comic artist is established and money comes easily to him. Once a pretty woman asked him why he lived alone.
 q have wife," he told her. q left her because she didn't believe in me. I am never going to take her back. It hurts a man to be tied to a bundle of pessimism in petticoats."
 And did she love you?" the pretty woman asked.

 Once his agents wrote him that she wanted to know where he lived.
 "Tell her." he wrote, "that I am in the Town of Tomorrow"
 And she understood.

The simple, attractive dress, of butchers linen, shown here, lays no claim to innovations and improvement in shape, but is a model that persists from season to season on the strength of it's many merits. It is a little two piece affair, just a dress and wide belt of the same material.
 The dress and upper part of the sleeves are cut in one piece with ki- mono shoulder. The lower part of the sleeves is set in under a hem in the upper part, which has the effect of a tuck in the sleeves. This makes It possible to use narrow as well as wide materials for this pattern.
 The neck is square and finished with buttonholed scallops. Small sprays of flowers and eyelets embroidered in a colored floss like that used for the scalloped edges provide the decora- tion and enliven the design. The sleeves are also finished with seal lops.
 The belt is run through slides of the linen placed at each side and fastened with a fiat pearl button at the front.
 Bright red and delft blue are the coiors liked best for embroidering these linen dresses in white or un- bleached linen. On the latter white floss is often used, but the red or blue gives opportunity for matching up hair ribbons and embroidery.
 Among the novelties in children's models are those little dresses of sheer white materials cut much like the linen dress shown here but having the portion below the belt made of single
