Milady's Summertime Makeup.

Every season has its bouquet OF novel;
ties to satisfy milady's Unsuitable de-
mand for something new and different.
Some of these are soon discarded, but
others persist. l think the vogue for
sun-tan effects in makeup is eStab-
fishing itself in the latter class. 1t fills
q long-felt want; by its aid milady
can have a becoming coat of tan to
harmonic with the brilliant colors of
her sports costumes for daytime wear
and in the evenings she can use the
light tones of makeup that are required
by her fragile party frocks. While a
sun-darkened skin Spoils the effect of
a dainty evening gown, it gives just the
right healthy, outdoor look that has
become SO very modiSh at vacation re-
sorts for daytime.
Makeup in shades of tan is used
exactly like any other kind. The skin
is first cleansed thoroughly and a
suitable foundation cream applied
There are various shades of powder

is to be used. which is not really neces-
Sary with this type of makeup, it
should be applied before the dark pow

shades are used to simulate natural tan.
OF course, light red lipstick is I'M
possible with a dark complexion,
whether it is natural CT artificial. There
are orange, brick and rust shades that
are suitable. Sometimes blend of
two shades.
Many of my readers who have skins
that freckle have been asking how to
develop a coat of tan that will conceal
the blemishes and give the fashionable
bronzed appearance to the complexion
Since the skins that freckle badly do
not take an even coat of tan from the
sun, the only way to hide the freckles
is with makeup. The dark shades If

at 10 o'clock this morning the following

The 29th Regiment, New Jersey Vol
unteerS, arrived here this morning from
the front, the time of enlistment of the
men having expired. They left Fall
mouth, Va, with the main body of the
Union Army on the 18th and marched
to Warrenton Junction, thence to Ma
nassas and on to Centerville. Last night
they encamped on the Virginia side Of
the Potomac River near the end of the
Long Bridge. On the whole route they
saw but few Confederates-only scouts
in small squads.
The staff boat Ella Capt. Eldridge,
arrived here from down river this morn
ing. The captain reports that all Of
the rolling stock had been got away
when he left Aqua Creek and the store
houses were entirely cleared cut. Five
Confederate scouts were seen yesterday
about miles from the creek.
He says three Confederate deSerterS
came to Aqua Greek last night and re-
ported that the last Confederate bat
terry of artillery had left Fredericksburg,
going in the direction of Chancellors-
vile. Aqua Greek has not been entirely
evacuated by the Union Army, some
troops being still left there. The steam
sloop Mahaska and the gunboats YAM

choice qualities that go into the max

uncommon clay.
Our standards of human quality are
warped by the conventional ways of
estimating it. William James regarded
as the most critical test of education
the ability to recognize a good man
when you saw one. The application was
a bit unexpected as he said it in COM
mencement address in a women's coll
lege; but the truth stands. 1t takes a
touch OF uncommon clay" TO recog-
nize 1t as well as genius in others; both
often go meagerly recognized.
The idea embodied in Nietche's
Superman, that the purpose of all this
life struggle of ours was to develop q
saving remnant OF superior persons is
intriguing but not likely TO be well re-
ceived in democracy. His way of
stating 1t was extreme; a small company
OF the elect, the masters. living by one
code, and great mass of slaves subject
to another. 1t isn't question OF au-
thority but Of recognition that we are
discussing.

recognition of 1t shouldn't be left to the
funeral eulogy, where 1t is often misap-
piled. 1t should, and in q world In
which appropriations are properly dis
posed, 1t would be recognized, even
though 1t is not associated with un-
common achievement.
Part of this disparity between ability
and achievement lies in the tendency
of uncommon clay sometimes to stand
in its own light. Superior people are
prone not to recognize their own supe-
riority, and by that course to realize it
That's how they came to approach the

Among the newer closet accessories of
interest to the homemaker is the fur

the wear and tear which comes with

other clothes are hung up or taken
down.
Summer furs being particularly deli

of moths more than at other seasons.

WHY WE DO WHAT WE Do

that the more we get the more we want.
And in the end we are less satisfied
than we were to start with. Another
thing. the more you have the less you
need and hence the less you feel the
urge of gratitude.
No one is wholly devoid of a sense of
dependence and gratitude, but no two
are equally grateful. On the whole the
less person has the more gratitude he
displays: the more humble his station
in life the more eager is he to acknowl-
edge his dependence. There is less
chance for clash of egoS.
We are grateful, then, in proportion
to the need we feel of the things that
we do not possess and would like to
get hold of.
Gratitude is based on the instinct
of submission and establishment.
When you are truly grateful you get
pleasure in submitting to the gifts and
graces of another at the expense of
.belittling your own. You are glad to
do this because you acknowledge the
superiority of the person who bestows a
favor. II he is not superior in every
respect he Is at least generous and we
all admire generosity in others. 1t
shows3a willingness to serve us. This
appeals to our pride and vanity.

THESE DELICATE


The scarf bags are tubelike in shape
with the lower end closed, To make the
top proceed in one of two ways. Take
coat hanger, of which the ends have
been cut down to the proportions of the
bag opening, and insert the hook end
through the center of the circular piece
of goods which closes the bag at the
top Screw a small curtain hook to the
under side of hanger and suspend the
scarf from 1t by a loop sewed to the
scarf lining.
Another Method.
Another way of making the top is to
cover q circular piece of cardboard
or even a small metal or paper pie
plate, merely sew a loop of tape to the
top portion of the material to hang it up
by and sew a clamp, or a large safety
pin suspended by tape from under side.
The completed top is secured by sewing
it to bag tubing at a given point, and
the sides held to 1t the rest of the way
around by snaps or hooks and eyes.
Fur scarf bags which cost the most to
buy are lined with some kind of moth
proof paper; tar paper can be used, or
some which is redolent of cedar.

Why We Are Appreciative.

There is such thing as gratitude.
Even animals show gratitude. a dog
will lick your hand, wag his tail and
otherwise exhibit his gratitude for your
giving him something to eat or for
helping him out of trap. The horse,
the elephant, all domestic animals and
not few. of the wild beasts, are not
wholly devoid of sense of appreciation
for favors shown.
The remarkable thing about grati-
tude is that it is not dependent upon
the size of the gift or the value of a
favor. 1t ccpends on the attitude of
the receiver. Some people are grateful
for small favors ana others growl at
large favofs. n
Thus it often happens that the most
grateful people in q community are
likely TO be thefchfonic ir1valids. the
bed-riddsff people who excite pity and
seem to have nothing to live for. And
yet visit to the bedside of one of these
people is better than tonic to the
visitor. The gratitude and the cheer
fulness they display are astonishing,
and put well person to shame. pr
We are inclined to think that we
have to have a lot of things in order to
be grateful. The trouble with, this is

Business Men ON Home Work.

A Canadian business man has some
thing of interest to tell us about this
home work evil:
In the town of - 7 am separate
school representative on the high school
board. Several times I have noticed
your criticism of the school systems for
allowing too much home work to be
loaded upon the children. am of the
opinion that no home work should be
allowed throughout the school year ex-
cept in the month before examinations
and then only review work.
Most of us business men do not work
much longer than the school children
under the present system and we would
not think of taking our work home with
us at night except under unusual cir
cumstanceS. II our business demand
ed 1t, we would get into another bust
ness that didn't.
My, daughter, aged 8, finished the
first month in the Fall term in second
place in her class. The home work was
light in that month, but grew heavier
with each succeeding month until in
December she had an hour or more
every night. She was fifth In October,
eleventh in November and seventeenth
in December, and at Christmas holiday
she was all in and had little or no time
for play. She picked up during Christ
mas vacation, and came fourth in
January. Home work started in Feb
ruary, and she was seventh in her
class for that month; eleventh in
March, fifteenth in April, seventeenth
in May, and in June she failed in her
examinations, though certainly she is
no dumbbell. During May and June
she was unable to do arithmetic ques-
tons that she had done easily in Feb
ruary, nor could she get the formula
through her head. She seemed dopy
all the time and did not even enjoy the
little play she got.
After two weeks vacation she was
able to do the arithmetic questions she
had failed to do ON examination, and
she could do them without stopping to
puzzle over them.
The trouble, I think, is that the
teaching staff of many schools are more
concerned in play than in the pupils,
and If they can make the parents do a
considerable share of the teaching
nights, that makes the job the easier
for them. (Signed)
One swallow doesn't make a Sum-
ner, and one langlishing child doesn't
prove that home work Is detrin1ent
to health, but the case is at least sug-
gestive.
do not agree at all with my COR
respondent that children of that tender
age should be given some home work
at examination time. The examination
evil Is little better than the home work

should be no question of the child's

class standing is not for that very pur-
pose. the whole thing is so much apple
