A woman, a vineyard and an orch ard are hard to watcn. A rich widow laujhs with one eye ami we?ps with the other. Woman is a supernumerary when present and missed when absent. Sunshine For the Hair. There is no better tonic for the hnlr than sunshine. Sit outdors in the sunshine every day. Loosen the hair and let the sun shine on it and the air blow through it. In the sum mer days go without a hat as much as possible. The hair needs to be ven tilated to keep It healthy. Airing ai.d suning the hair every day not only keeps it sweet and clean, but is good for the scalp also. The sun will soon cure any disease of the scalp and make it healthy and active, and a healthy scalp makes strong, beauti ful hair. Brushing the hair every Bay, "a hundred strokes," as our grandmothers used to say, will make It soft and glossy as silk. French Women Improving. While French women are still far from having their hands on the bal lot, their position before the law Is rapidly improving, as is shown by the different attitude which French Juries now take toward women who, tired of being ill-treated by their husbands, take the law into their own hands. In two recent cases where wives had killed their legal tormentors they were promptly ac quitted, it having been proved that they acted in self-defense when their lives were endangered, and one of the jurors added under his breath, "Served the fellows right." Such a position is thought to be highly sig nificant of a change in public senti ment, because In the past It was felt that women should never take the law into their own hands, even in-extreme cases; consequently, those who did so seldom escaped punishment of some kind. New York Tribune. Her Horrid Neighbor. "I don't like our neighbor across the hall," announced a pretty little bride in a West Side apartment house. , "What's the matter with her!" asked her husband. 'gho's so queer. Yesterday I was expecting Dr. Blank and his wife to call and I had to go out for a few minutes. I asked Mrs. Neighbor if Bhe would keep the key to our apart ment and I would pin a note on our door telling Dr. Blank where to find It, so they could get it and wait for me. She said Bhe would, but that I would better describe the doctor, so she would not admit any burglars who might read the note. "I told her she would be sure to know Dr. Blank, because he was a dentist and' an awfully nice man; and, Howard, she laughed right in my face! What do you think made her do that? I don't think she's a bit nice!" New York Press. TSlamed on Peek-a-Hoo. "While clergymen and folk in the country districts are decrying peek-a-boo waists," said a woman who has the courage to wear a waist not of the popular variety, according to the New York Press, "the thing that Bet me against them wns that I lost two open-faced watches and two fleur-de-lis pins. There is so little on which to pin a watch on an open work waist that in a car Jam I lost a valuable timeteller I treasured for sentimental reasons. I went to the car barns. They had so many com- plaints of lost articles that they told a woman waiting in front of me that there was no use for to leave her name and address because the lost article probably would not turn up, for finders usually pawned such ar ticles two days after they were re ceived. That struck me as absurd. You can Just bet he didn't tell me anything like that. Well, I didn't get my watch. They said it hadn't been turned In. Since then I have lost another. It may be a pick' pocket got It on u surface car, or It may be the weight of the watch swaying to and fro opened the pin and it dropped. At any rate, I've gone back to the old-fashioned waists. If you don't believe what I say about bo many women losing their watches look at the lost and . found advertisements in the papers these days." Machine's Limitations. "Madame," said the young man who had called at the back door on May day, "I have the pleasure of introducing to you our new automatic housecleaning machine a simple lit tle thing which does the whole work of housecleaning, leaving to you merely the general supervision." "Does It all, hey?" demanded the woman of the house. "Will it wash the outside of the'upstalrs windows? , "Why, no, madam, but " "Will It take down, wash, stretch to dry, Iron and hang up the parlor curtains?" "Well, of course this machine "Will It gild the chandeliers, paint the kitchen, make my daughter help with the dishes, persuade my hus band to be contented with cold din ners, get out the screens and patch them up?" "Oh, madam, this machine " "Will it take down the parlor stove and set up the refrigerator, wash the winter beddins and put it away, lay down the furs with moth balls, paper the hall bedroom, wash down the pa per in the bathroom, wash, fold, starch and iron and put away the family clothes, darn, patch and sew on buttons, wash dishes, set three meals a day and pacify the house hold?" "No, madam, you have misunder stood the limitations of this ma chine." "Limitations?" demanded the wo man of the house. "I guess it has limitations. It will be a long time yet before any man will get up a machine that will do all a woman has to do in housecleaning time." She took a fresh mouthful of tacks and went back to the dlningrooin car pet, and the agent faded sadly away. New Orleans Picayune, The Old Are Younger These Times. With increasing enlightenment in matters of hygiene the period of old age is deferred, and the tides of life now flow strongly at a time when our forefathers and, still more, our foremothers were laid on the shelf; and yet, put it off as we may, it is bound to catch up with us, unless we be of those whom the gods love. To the earlier period of meek ac ceptance belongs the assertion, so often repeated as to be sometimes carelessly taken for truth, that con tact with youth more than anything else makes old people forget their age. Never was a more mistaken statement. In a way, it is true that the society of young persons does keep their elders young, by stimu lating their pride and preventing them from giving way to certain foibles incident to their time of life. ft is the nature of a salutary dis cipline; and those persons who are brought in contact with the little segregated communities of old men and old women who are collected in Homes" will probably agree that it is a discipline which is most de sirable. For of all the pitfalls which lie in wait for old age the most dis tressing is that lack of self-control which lays bare the weaknesses hitherto kept under cover by a nor mally strong will. The constant presence of the younger generation Is at the same time a moral goad and a support. The very instinct of self-preservation leads one to adapt oneself to their standards. If you would-not be unpleasant to look at. you must cultivate the niceties of the toilet. Not for you, madam, any sweet neglect." At yout ago, "robes loosely flowing, hair as free" are not as befitting as a well-preserved fig ure and a trim coiffure. Not for you, sir, an overindulgence in slip pered case. Eeware the trousers that bag at the knee and the wrin kled waistcoat. It you would not be an unwelcome companion you must constantly bear in mind that "brevity is the soul of wit." You must be sympathetic, but discreet; wise, but not too wise; modern enough to be companionable, but old-fashioned enough to be suitable. And you must not expect to be un derstood. "The Point of View," In the Fiction Number of Scribner The old polonaise is very likely to have an extended vogue before it dis appears again with discarded modes. The skirt with many gores always hangs better than the circular skiit and can be made as flaring as one likes about the feet. The vogue for small hats doesn't mean there are no large hats, for there are many and the fashionable ones are very large. The stole yokes in some of the new waists or blouses give prettier lines to the figure than do the chemisettes which are so often used In the same way. The spangled Syrian scarfs are much admired, some women of dark, picturesque beauty wearing white or black ones with matching frocks of lace, chiffon or net. Hats are very, very small in many instances. This means that one will have to dress her hair loose and fluffy at the sides unless she has a very small face and head. A new gown has three superposed tunic effects which meet In the mid die of the front. This gown is of cloth and the bottom flounce and the tunic effects are stitched. Among the plainer bodies some handsomely tailored waists of heavy white taffetas or moire present very attractive features. Often with shirt waist sleeves of wrist length, in gigot or blBhop form, the genre of these As to coats, they are a fluffy, flut tering mass of wafh embroidery and lace, and when the wearer steps in and out of her automobile or car riage delicate slippers of the dressy, fragile sort used for dancing are displayed. a sstea&w !ii:f,ii' ii'tl' 1,S !!! ! , n-" ii lift' :t .;!
