Earning and Saving.

So many have the power to earn
great sums Of useful money! They
seem to have good coin to burn, and
life is gay and sunny. The country's
full Of sprightly lads who draw down
princely wages, and who decline to
save the ScadS, as urged by solemn
sageS. Their services are in demand,
they're able and they're clever: condi-
tons so sublime and grand they think
will last forever. I'VE live but once"
the blithe boys say, land we'll be dead
Tor ages, so let US then be glad and gay
and blow in all our wages" And here
and there we see a skate who is not
largely gifted; he has to labor early.
late, to keep a mortgage lifted. He
has no talent that commands a stipend
large and weighty; some fifteen BUCKS
q week he lands, while others pull down
eighty. But every time he draws his
pay he counts each dime and nickel.
and puts brace of bucks away, IN
preserving pickle. He takes them where
the banking gent has vaults Of steel and
mortar, and draws perhaps some four
per cent compounded every quarter: 1t
seems q picayunish course to those
bright boys 50 gifted, who want to get
quick divorce from every dime they've
lifted. For they insist man lives but
once, and while he lives should gambol,
and any fellow is q Ounce who doesn't
with them ramble. But when the day
of trouble comes, and they sit, sad and
brooding, what good are all the gor-
geous sums they blew in joys deluding?
AS to the wailing place they drift, where
broken men are raving, they wish they'd
had that other gift-the fine old gift Of
saving. The man whose salary was
small but who kept sailing srnackers, Is
seated In his coy hall, consuming tripe
and crackers. WALT MASON.

ware Of working on them too much. A
face that has no very definite express
sion, for instance, becomes hopeleSsly
insipid If the eyebrows are made too
thin, and small eyes are not made to
look larger by very thin eyebrows. Be-
gin by plucking out only few hairs
and study the effect carefully before
you go in for any. wholesale work.
Eva-You can improve the shape of
your legs If you dance, as this develops
grace. Swimming, or other sports that
require much exercise of the legs, will
also help to build up the calves and
make the ankles more shapely.

turn to them. once you get up on them

Minor Details of

The progress of the winter fashion
season indicates very clearly that the
so.called minor details are Of much
deeper significance than appears on
the surface. writes fashion cor
respondent in the New York Herald
Tribune. Indeed, with elegance so
firmly established in the mode that the
couture can no longer divide itself
into tie two schools of elegance ard
simplicity, the diaerentials between
the various collections must come in
the incidental details. Some of the
more important of these ineidentals
are interesting 10 observe; how diff

Marked Changes Necessary.
"There is, naturally, first of all, the
general silhouette, but since the sill
houette changes slowly, due to the
fact that contrary to general opinion
women are not ready to take up new
fashions easily, the lines of a collec-
ton evoiute slowly and gradually. To
change the fashions three or four
times year it is necessary for a
designer to make innovations in de-
tails Of collars, cuffs, belts, the use of
coordination of unusual fabrics, an ex-
aggeration of essentials, or anything
else that his busy and fertile mind can
devise.
IAN innovation characteristic of my
new collection which cause perhaps
more comment than any other, is the
exaggerated use of cuffs or fur and
