HINTS ON BEAUTY.
, . . . . q . . . . Q . . . . :

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
 The Countess of Warwick. tho noted beauty, wrote an article for one of the London papers some time ago, and which was published in the Seattle Times as follows;
 The Countess of Warwick has been taking the English people into her confidence on the subject of Beauty Cor the MiddIe-t ged Woman Ac- cording to her t..,ory, all the woman has to do is to apportion out her time. Thus her ladyship writes:
 Living in the country as 1 do the greater part of the year, it is easier to carry out the days pro gramme. Winter and summer I rise at 6;30 o'clock, and after a hot bath and Swedish exercises. a short walk with all the dogs before break fast-no matter what the weather start the day with cheery thoughts.
 q always breakfast at 8:3O o'clock with my children. Then to exercise in the fresh air, plant ing or planning improvements with the gardener, or riding round the farms on good horse, meeting ten ants or cottagers and discussing local affairs.
 Luncheon time brings together tho family friends and neighbors, followed by various duties for the afternoon, and as the day wears on, probably callers will be received from London a politician rebel a woman worker, or some literary or artistic friends who seek a few hours in the country air. with pleas ant discussion and conversation Then, when the evening wanes, Il o'clock sees all lights out.
 Days spent in this way bring untroubled sleep and zest and freshness to begin the coming day.
 "In towns, O course this pro- gramme cannot hold, as one is de pendent more or less on the hours ones friends keep; but if the mid dle-aged woman is wise she will rise early and get in her fresh air and exercise before the claims of society call her. She will eschew late hours and suppers, rich foods

KEEPING CUT FLOWERS.

To keep cut flowers in good con dition, they should be cut early in the morning, when they are still fresh and brittle and the sun has not yet had much effect on them. They should be cut when only partly or just beginning to open and put in fresh, cool water and kept in a cool dark room (cellar) for about twentyfour to thirtysiX hours before using them. This will make them firm and add greatly to their fresh ness and keeping qualities.
 After taking the flowers to the living room, the stem ends should he cut back a little and the flowers placed i'll rather wide glass vase in fresh cold water, which should be renewed daily and kept in a cool place. A little salt, nitrate of soda (saltpetre) or bicarbonate of soda may be added to the water which will also help to preserve the flowers and brighten the colors Much also depends on kinds of flowers and also on varieties. Some are very good keepers Carnations, chrysanthemums, asters etc.) others last only a very short time (roses, yiolets, poppies).
 On some varieties the plants with woody stem chrysanthemums), it becomes necessary to split or mash the lower end of the stem to allow the flowers to take up more water to make them keep well. Others, again, may have to be singed or the stem ends inserted for an inch or two in boiling water to seal them (poppies and others). Often wilting flowers can be made to look fresh again if the stems are cut back some and then inserted in a vase with hot water and put in a cool dark place for a few hours. Roses should be cut when the buds just begin to open. Flowers of a soft nature are usually poor keepers and flowers of one kind will keep better than a mixed bunch.

GlRLS! LOOK CHEERFUL

 My dear" said the experienced matr0n to girl who was about to start out in the world for her elf you will have many hardshipe in the life ahead of you, but do not herald them in your face. No mat ter how blue you may be feeling, nor how bitterly things have gone awry, look cheerful. No one has a "' ght 10 inflict of joyless face upor the public"
 That girl took Look cheerful" for her motto. She made a stren- uous effort to look happy, and with the effort she declares that happi- ness seemed to follow Her bright spirit, no matter what went wrong, "ade her a popular worker. who was always in line for advance ment.
 Look cheerful" Is a good motto for every girl and woman to blazon 'var her mirror It is not wise nor right to spoil the lives of others because things do not go our way
 You may have to work to seem gay, and some times your efforts will fail, but weep up the fight and you cease to be a dejected indi- vidual whom no one wants around Smile and you feel hopeful. There are some persons who luxuriate in woes. Each trifle that goes amiss Is blaZoned on their face The "'cuth gets a drOops and 1t is as i'm possible for them to look content as for ice to thaw in zero weather
 Be very sure if you are one of the down-in-the-mouth, life-is-a griev- ous-blunder sort of girl, no one will crave your society.
 Look cheerful because it is poor business to look anything else. and do it in the interest of your own popularity.

has not attacked, but should always
be peeled before being used.
Experiments conducted at Water
bury, Conn, and Mount Gretna.
Pa, to determine the value of the
diseased wood have shown that
blight-killcd and infected chestnut
is just as durable as the healthy
timber and is consequently equally
valuable. These experiments, say
the foresters, show that there need
be no hesitation about using wood
affected by the blight for any pur-
pose to which chestnut is suited.
The material used in the expert
ments consists of posts. poles, and
ties, both from infected and healthy
chestnut. After three years use, the
infected timber is as sound as that
which was not infected. Even the
LESSONS caused by the attacks of the
blight have withstood decay, except

OF the material used was found to
be in good condition, except for the
deterioration of the knots and OF

The blight-killed timber which had

years and which had lost its bark
has proved more resistant to decay
than healthy wood from which the
bark was not removed. No difference
