asked and the Treaty of Arrac
was concluded in September, 1895.
Agnes singled out men of ca
pacity and adroitly attached them
to the king. While Charles made
ardent love she whispered Of
deeds of valor and high emprise;
she aroused him to sense of his
duties and inspired him to rescue
his kingdom. With astonishing
vigor and ability he drove the
English from French soil.
The influence of Agnes Sorel
was no longer secret. The
king delighted to distinguish her
with public honors. A contem-
porary writer says that, Charles
VII endowed her with such
might and power that her condi-
ton might be compared to the
great princesses of the kingdom.
She was one of the handsomest
women i ever saw, and did good
service to the Kingdom Of
France"
Though her life was triumphant,
splendid, there was a fly in the
amber"-as usual. The gods are
jealous of too much earthly hap
piness, and dexterously slip in a
fly" The Dauphin, afterward
the merciless Louis XI, hated
her, but Agnes clevery check
mated his intrigues at every turn.
Finally, in a furious rage, he
dared to strike his fathers favor
lite. Agnes retired to her famous
Chateau de Beaute," which
Charles had bestowed upon her,
and, weary of the strife, ceased
to take any further interest in
public affairs.
In 1449 she was seized with a
sudden illness that suggested poi
son. And the brief, brilliant ca
reer of the woman who had vir-
tually saved France, who had
been the inspiration of Charles
VII, was ended.

WHAT is LIFE
MINUS HEALTH
BY Brice BeIden, nj. d.

IN r. LOUIS HARRIS, the di-
rector of the bureau of pre-.
- ventable diseases of the
New York city health department,
gives the following five cardinal
rules of life most likely to be of
value in promoting a healthful
and long life.
The avoidance of excessive IA
tigue, nervous strain, or excuses
of any kind.
2. Securing adequate rest, sleep
and recreation.
3. Securing regular and moder.
ate exercise, and an abundance of
fresh air at all times.
4. Regulating and maintaining
proper habits as to the quantity
and quality of foods.
5. Submitting to a verv thor.
ough medical examination at
least once year.
DR.. Lawrason Brown of Sara.
mac, the noted specialist in pull
monary diseases, lays down these
safeguards against tuberculosis,
which may also be regarded as
preventive of host OF other dis.
eases. These are: /. Eat sufficient
proper food and eat it slowly. ..
Exercise regularly, preferably in
the open air every day. g. Guard
your rest above all things; you
need from eight to ten hours in
bed every night to repair the
losses which the strenuous life
brings about.
DIR. Thaddeus p. Hyatt, the dis
tinguished dentist, quotes insist
emily: Without good teeth there
cannot be good mastication. With
out thorough mastication there
cannot be thorough digestion.
Without perfect digestion there
cannot be proper assimilation.
Without proper assimilation there
canno the nutrition. Without nu
triton there cannot be health.
Without health, what is life?"
Hence the Importance of the
teeth.
1t is a sad fact that most peo-
pie treat their bodies in outra-
geous ways. The body is neglect.
ed and abused by these folks to
such degree. that the expert in
these matters often wonders how
they bear up under the treatment
as well as they do. Medicines,
OF course, have but little to do
with the maintenance of health
or the cure Of disease.

A Unique Love Story, the Film Version,
: of Which Appears at LOew's
.s Palace Next Sunday.

? A stony silence fell on the COM
pany; the maid carried away the
boxes and Eva began to show
signs of tears. Mr. King, who
could be as ferocious as a bull
fighter. followed the traditions of
the male at this vancouver of his
daughters and melted; putting
an arm about her he said in a
voice hardly recognizable as the
one that had startled the COM
pany SO shortly before:
A Stony Silence.
Don't take things to heart, my
dear; the wrist watch is all right.
You know when you act that way
l sometimes think I haven't done
enough for my girls"
Eva was not slow in taking adj
vantage of this opening: Il
thought you would feel that way,
father, and that's why 1 got
these pearls" and she proceeded
with deft fingers to fasten the
string about her neck. At the
same moment, or, to be specific,
as soon as her fingers were free,
she held up the hand on which
sparkled the marquise ring.
The sight of these ornaments,
representing thousands of dollars
Of his hard-earned money, drove
out of Mr.. Kings anatomy any
tenderness that had found lodging
there. He banged his fist on the
table, making everything on it
rattle. and in a voice that re-
sounded through the room he
reared: who do you think is
going 20 pay for this extrava-
gance."
In vain Eva tried to calm him;
he refused to listen. '*All you
people want from me is money!
he Numbered, whereat Julie showed
her embarrassment and the guests
wished in vain for convenient
loopholes to escape.
"Oh father!' cried Eva, please
don't talk about money; it's so
nouveau richie"
Mr.. King, on hearing this SEN
timent, stared at ris daughter. i"
gasped for words, could not find
them, and. turning abruptly, left
the room.
Eva smiled on her courtiers and
followed him. He took few turns
along the veranda and-faced her.

THE SEPARATE
SKIRT
BY Rita Stuyvesant

" HE vogue for the new pale
tot blouses, short jackets
II and fancy blouses has
created the demand for the sepa.
rate skirt. Whether it is for
sports wear or to form the better
half of smart dressy costume
for the afternoon tea or bridge,
the separate skirt has come into
it's own for spring favor.
For sports wear, golf, tennis,
hiking or motoring, there is
skirt of shaggy camers hair cloth.
These skirts are usually of the
simple wrap around model, and
sometimes are fringed at the bot
tom. Worn with a slipon sweater,
they are warm and comfortable.
Pleated white canton crepe
skirts are much in demand for
those going South. They are of
ankle length and are accordion
pleated, side pleated or box
pleated, according to fancy
Black crepe makes an excellent
foundation for many beautiful
costume, if made up into sepa-
rate skirt. Sometimes a short
bandeau lining is used to keep
the skirt from slipping. These
skirts are perhaps pleated. or
may be made with the long, loose
trailing Grapes and panels SO Wen
liked during the winter. With
skirt of this type one may have
several paletot blouses, or
metallic cloth top, and thus have
a number Of gowns at small
cost.
Draped skirts are coming into
vogue, and it is a novel idea to
have the separate skirt of black
chiffon velvet beautifully draped
to the figure. Drapery drawn to
the side is favored, but should
only be attempted by the tall,
slender woman. There are so
many blouses and short jackets
that one could wear with a skirt
OF this kind that the possibilities
for smart gowns are almost un-
limited.
Different still are the new
skirts of Persian print. These
are of silk and are made in fine
pleated effects. OF course, with
a separate skirt of this style one
must top it with a blouse or
sweater of a plain color to obtain
the correct effect. These Persian
print dresses are also made in
the smart circular effects.
