A Long Wait.
"Well, Jesse," said a New Engend-
er, on returning to his native Vermont
town after an absence of several years,
"how are things? Are you married
yet? And did that rich old uncle of
yours leave you any money?"
"No, T ain't married yet; nor ain't
likely to be, so far's I kin see,' an-
swered Jesse, despondently. "If Uncle
Bill had done as he ought to, I s'pose
I'd been settled down in a house of my
own a long time ago."
"So he didn't leave you a cent?
That's too bad!"
"Yes: an' it puts me an' Mary in an
awful hard place. There ain't nothin'
for ns t' do now but to set down an'
wait for some o' her folks to die."

Honesty Makes Success.
A great fortune has been held, pef
se, to be conclusive of double-dealing
and fraud. To be oppressive and dis-
honest has been declared the only way
to attain great financial success. This
we claim to be untrue as a statement
of fact, declares Leslie's Weekly, and
at the same time a dangerous doctrine
by a plain law of psychology. Your
men want success spelled with a big
"S," and the ambitious are not satis-
fied short of a fair degree of material
reward. For this there is no moral
blame. But already the harm has
been done in making the false sugges-
tion that in order to be successful one
has only to be "slick," overshrewd, dis-
honest. In the far-reaching influence
of simple suggestion we have one of
the most valuable contributions of
modern psychology. The smallest
word of suggestion can reshape a
career. Thus the erroneous preaching
of many a sincere moral leader has
worked we know not how much harm.
With a true conception of what consti-
i tutes the highest aim of life, there has

Reached His Limit.
Little Henry had been very naughty
and was shut up in a closet until he |
should express proper penitence for j
his misdeeds. Near by sat his moth- j
er. ready to extend pardon to the ,
small offender at the first sign of
sorrow. At last a faint sigh caught
her ear. Creeping silently to the
door, she discovered the child seated j
on the floor in a disconsolate attitude.
"Poor me!" he muttered, with an-
other sigh. "Why can't I get out?
I'se dene sorried all I can sorry!"—

esty and integrity. These qualities
were never more valued than to-day,
i and now. as always, they pave the
| road to fortune.
Lung Exercise.
Pure air, as every sensible person
knows, is essential to health. The man
or woman who seeks to build up and
maintain a good physical condition will
try to dwell where pure air abounds.
Our first, act in life is to breathe; the
cessation of breath is death. Between
that first instinctive act of respiration
and the last feeble, fluttering gasp,
how little practical thought is given to
the vital subject of correct breathing!
ur® Is Absolute
ef Fashion.
As it was rumored in the summer,
the padded waist line has come to
pass. There is an oblong pillow worn
down the center seam of skirt and
princess frock to give a large waist
line and a straight drop from bust to
floor.
Extra thin women are padding the
corset at the back, where the straight
frock or coat is apt to fall into a curved
waist line. This spoils the effect of
the wide, straight back, which is the
feature of good fashion to-day.
Women who have large waists are
happily letting them out and having
comfort for the first time in their
lives. The only thing is that one must
wear gowns and coats in straight
lines, otherwise the effect is absurd.
Anything that tends to enlarge hips
and bust is considered bad manage-
ment in dressing, and even though the
waist line is not only let out, but pad-
ded, the hips are laced in absolutely
tight from the waist down.
Every woman does not know how to
lace a corset, and if she is in error the
result will be worse this year than for
many seasons before. ,
It must always be unlaced its entire
length every time it is removed. Oth-
erwise bones break and steels snap
and the corset lasts half its appointed
time.
When it is put on it should be
hooked up in front, then the hands put
under it to draw up the flesh. Next
the elastics are fastened to the stock-
ings and the figure comfortably adjust-
ed before the lacing begins.
The lacers, which have loops in the
center, should be pulled a little at that
line first, then they should be pulled
hard at the extreme lower edge, bring-
ing the edges of the corset together.
This should be done all the way up
over the hips, the extra length of
lacers pulled out at the center.
The same method of lacing should
then begin at the top of the corset
only it is not necessary to lace sc
tightly above as below.
The strings in the center are pulled
as tight as one wishes and tied in a
loose knot. They should never be
brought around the corset and tied in
front, as this destroys the waist line
by denting it and finally breaking the
corset bones.
Facial Distortion} a Fre-
quent 'Fault of tb©
r
Do you realize how rare it is to see
a strong, quiet face? The next time
you go down the street in the cars
look for one.
If there were an epidemic of St. Vi-
tus dance there might be some excuse
for the distorted countenances you
see. The girl who does not bite her
lips and draw in her eyes toward her
nose, arches her eyebrows (thinking
it coquettish), or puckers her mouth
till one thinks of persimmons or a
gathering thread.
One would feel like laughing if It
did not seem more to be cried over.
For much of this distorting is needless
and all is disfiguring. Oddly enough,
lack of facial repose is more noticea-
ble in women and girls than in men
or boys. Is it because the former are
more self-conscious?
There are some girls who think a
quiet face must be a stupid one, so
they smirk and jerk and shrug in the
mistaken idea that they are animated.
Forced piquancy has but one ending
—wrinkles for the piquant and sneer;
ing amusement for the looker-on.
Many a woman spends a small fortune
on electricity, cold packs and massage,
when all she needs is to root out dis-
figuring habits. There is no wrinkle
cure known that will conquer con-
firmed wrinkle-making.
Sometimes facial distortion comes
from bad eyesight or lack of nervous
A new school has been started in
the Grand Montrouge district of Par-
is. It is a school for the teaching of
parrots, and specializes in making the
birds of commercial value. It has oc-
curred to the manager of the school
that a clever parrot may be very use-
ful as an advertiser, and he is at pres-
ent teaching a number of them to cry
aloud the excellence of various pro-
ducts. These birds will later on be
hung in cages in prominent positions
on the boulevards. The birds are be-
ing taught by a phonograph in dark
rooms.
There is considerable discussion ge
ing on in some of the eastern states
as to whether it is wise to employ all
the teachers of a town from the
training school of the place. That
this would tend to narrow the scope
of the schools and put them into a
rut seems to be the opinion of those
opposed, while another element be-
lieves that a town with a training
school should provide for its young
women in Its schools and should thus
provide the schools with trained
teachers.
PRUNING SHRUBS.
Have Ten-Hour Laws
That it is necessary to have laws
that will establish the maximum num-
ber of hours that a woman may be re-
quired to work is the sense of the re-
cent. decision of the United States su-
preme court upholding the law of Ore-
gon that ten hours shall constitute
the maximum. The following states
now have ten-hour laws: Massachus-
control. Whatever the cause, whether j etts. Rhode Island. Louisiana. Nebras-

of It. I
Find out whether yours is a repose-
ful face. Your family will be only too
glad to give you the information.
Then ask their help in making it so.
You will not like that help. It grows
deadly wearing to have friends say.
just when you think yourself looking
fine: "Milly, stop squinting;" "Mar
garet, get away from that frown;"
"Don't be coy, Violet." But endure
it as you would a bad medicine.
There is no remedy too severe in
the interest of a restful face in this
day of distortions. Plain features that
are quiet as nature planned them have
more real beauty than a Greek nose, a
perfect mouth, and inspiring eyes that
are always in motion.

economy practiced by many in breath-
ing the proper amount of air would
apparently mark it as a rare and
pensive commodity. At least twice a
day practice any good exercise that
will fully inflate the lungs and fill the
blood with life-giving oxygen, recom-
mends the New York Weekly. Do not
breathe as if under a bell-glass and
you feared to exhaust the supply! Lie
flat on your back upon the floor.
Stretch the arms high above the head.
Inhale slowly through the nostrils un-
til the lungs are filled. Retain the air
as long as possible, then exhale slow-
ly, letting the hands fall gradually to
the sides. If practiced daily this
breathing exercise will broaden and
deepen the chest and effectually ward
off incipient pulmonary trouble, as
well as develop the figure. Of course
it is understood that the exercise
should be taken with the windows
wide open.
Old-Fashioned Braiding.
Some of the new coats have their
entire surface covered with a close de-
sign of soutache braiding. This was
the height of style years ago, and it
has been revived in exactly its old
form.
The soutache is put on as though it
were cut out with a jig saw, and it is
quite effective.
One model in green broadcloth has
a seven-gored circular skirt, with high
waistband, and fastens down the left
front with buttons of green velvet cov-
ered with soutache.
The coat falls below the knees at
back and to the knees in front. It is
covered from shoulder to hem with
these scrolls and turns made of
soutache.
The fronts do not meet except by
means of a heavy black satin waist-
coat fastened with green velvet
buttons.

his promises soon goes to pieces.
It was on a Urookline car, and not
all the 18 seats were occupied, but the
"fares" had a tough time just the
same, relates the Boston Herald.
Scratches and gashes marked the
necks and noses of more than one in-
dividual as the brims of wide-spread-
ing hats did the work beautifully, and
trimmings of enormous wings and
quills poked out numerous eyes,
which, it is true, were gallantly picked
up and restored to their owners.
Nevertheless, murmurs from both
sexes and very cross looks surprised
an eerie assemblage usually so polite
and deeply interested in their oppo-
site neighbor's clothes. What does it
mean? Does the eternal feminine re-
sent the size of her own millinery
when it is on another head than her
own? It must be.
Velvet Roses.
The new thing of the moment is the
immense rose with petals that are
larger than an ordinary rose, made
of helio velvet and worn on the front
of a hat. Sometimes two smaller ones
are placed at the sides, and between
them is a festoon of helio tulle.
These roses are also worn at the
front of bodice and just below the left
hip on an evening gown made with a
tunic that crosses over at left and is
slashed to show an underskirt of tulle
or chiffon.

Hunting whales with big and speedy
ocean liners would be expensive, but
no doubt it would be effective. A ship
which arrived in Boston reports that
while crossing the Grand Banks it ran
into a school of whales. When one of
the whales attempted to cross the ves-
sel's course the sharp steel bow struck
the cetacean and cut him in two, and
as the pieces drifted astern the propel-
ler wheels caught them and ground
them into mincemeat. The big crea-
tures have a fighting chance when the
old-fashioned whalers go after them.
They have no chance at all when they

Judgment in the Work is an Essential
Factor.
No two shrubs or varieties of shrubs
should be pruned in the same man-
ner. One important object in prun-
ing is to keep down the growth of
superfluous wood. Another is to keep
the shrub in such a shape that it will
be attractive, in old times it was
thought that pruning should be in
the direction of the artificial, and
shrubs of all varieties were trimmed
in the same general manner.. The re-
sult was a mass of shrubs all trimmed
in ubout the same general manner.
The artificial effect was not in ac-
cordance with what is now considered
good taste in landscape gardening,
and the natural tendency of the
shrubs is now considered. Every
shrub has its own habit of growth,
and this should be encouraged. It is
not desirable to have one variety of
shrubs look like another variety of
entirely different nature of gfowth.
Shrubs should be pruned a little each
year rather than a great deal in any
one year. The cutting off of com-
paratively large branches is as detri
mental to a shrub as the cutting off
of a big limb is to a tree. The prun-
ing should be so given that the shrub
will become more graceful from year
to year. This means taste on the
part of the primer. This is a limi-
tation that cannot be escaped. If the
pruner has not that indefinite thing
we call good taste, his pruning work
will not be good, but for this fault
there is no remedy, unless it be the
securing of a pruner that has taste.
Widows' Pensions
In his annual report President Eliot
has this to say about the pensions
provided for the widows of profes-
sors: "As a resource for a widow in
cases of sudden disability or death,
the possibility of a Carnegie pension
is already a great comfort to men of
small means who give their lives to
the higher education. It does not re-
lieve men who can get th*ir lives in-
sured from the duty of so doing, but
there are some men with families who
cannot get their lives insured upoa
any terms, and others whose expenses
are so near their inco « that they
cannot save the money for premiums
on any adequate amount of insur-
ance."
KEEP THE CELLAR COOL.
How to Manage When the Apples
Have Been Stored.
After the apples are in the cellar,
that place should be kept as cold as It
is possible to keep it without reducing
the temperature below the freez-
ing point. With a little care the win-
dows of the cellar can be so adjusted
as to let the cold air pour in during
all the night and then shut the cellar
and keep in the air during the day.
Even if the temperature outside of
the cellar is below freezing, the ad-
justment of the cellar windows can be
such that the volume of inflowing
cold air can be only enough to keep
down the general temperature to be-
low 40 degrees. This is low enough
for several varieties of apples. In
fact, a few quite soft varieties seem
to keep better near 40 than near 30,
though the data on this point are not
yet extensive.
The barrels in which the apples are
sir red should be headed and kept in
a dry part of the cellar. Many farm-
ers leave their barrels of apples un-
headed, with the result that the aii
is constantly drawing the moisture
out of the apples. This is now recog-
nized as detrimental to the long keep-
ing of the apples.

Our sketch illustrates a very effective way of decorating the space imme-
diately above the dado with a number of small pictures, all of the same size.
This form of decoration is especially adaptable to a reading or smoking room,
and may be carried out entirely round the room. Small oak frames, ready-
made, can be purchased in many of the shops at a moderate cost, and are very
suitable for framing photographs and engravings.
in the room from which our sketch was made, a number of photographs
had been framed quite plainly in this manner, and they were arranged in a
row resting on the beading at the head of the dado. Above them, and cut so
as to slightly overlap the top of the frames, a second beading had been nailed,
and held the pictures in their places. Headings suitable for this purpose can
be obtained very cheaply, and for a similar decoration, of a smaller kind,
cabinet photographs look wonderfully well and make an interesting addition
to a room. Pictures or photographs so arranged in no way interfere with lar-
ger pictures that may be hung above them.
Line Almost Joins Oceans
In Chili railroad construction on the
cross continental line between Val-
paraiso and Buenos Ayres, has ad-
vanced so that a ride of four hours in
a stage is the only interruption in
a continuous railway journey from the
Pacific to the Atlantic ocean. The
Chilian congress also has provided for
a longitudinal line paralleling the
coast. Peru is making great advance
in railroad construction, and Ecuador
has joined in constructing railways
following the general Pan-American
route. The transoceanic line in Guate-
mala was opened for traffic in last
January, and Costa Rica is finishing
a line from ocean to ocean.

At a recent banquet given at the
home of the prime minister a distin-
guished diplomat complained to hi3
host that the minister of justice, next
to whom he was sitting, had taken
his watch. The prime minister said:
"Ah, he shouldn't have done that,
I will get it back for you." Sure
enough, towards the end of the even-
ing the watch was returned to its
owner. "And what did he say?" asked
the guest. "Sb-h! lie doesn't know

minister.

Perfect Philosophy.
We read of a certain Roman em-
peror who built a magnificent palace.
In digging the foundation the work-
men discovered a golden sarcophagus
ornamented with three circlets, on
which were inscribed: "I have expend-
ed; I have given; I have kept; I have
possessed; I do possess; I have lost;
I am punished. What I formerly ex-
pended I have; what I gave away, I
have."—From the Gesta Romanorum.
"The Armless Man"
said, "It wasn't money he wanted,
but somebody to scratch his back."
There are many with strong arms and
willing hands that have that same
yearning. Hunt's Cure will make back
scratching, or any other old scratch-
ing, totally unnecessary. It knocks
out any itching sensation that ever
happened, and it' does it right now.

by tliera will arrive at much better
results than she who ignores them.
When it is not possible to have the
carpets alike in rooms that arc joined
by wide openings, a rug should be
laid over the long seam to hide it.

Relief for Tired Feet.
Tired feet cause an almost unendur-
able pain, yet ninny suffer from such
merely through carelessness in not
having the heels of shoes straight-
ened. You know what it is to put on
an old pair of shoes that have been
cast aside for months, and if the heels
are crooked it is almost an iuipossi-
bility to step in them, yet one will go j \ /k K JV IVI "TT* C"

shoes that throw the ankles yut of
place. Burning feet are caused by
poor circulation. This can be cured
in a short time by plunging the feet
into moderately hot water, then cold,
and applying witch hazel or bay rum.

Pull Out the Stumps.
To get rid of large stumps get a
straight tree 25 to 30 feet long and 12
to 18 inches through at the butt. Get
a strong chain, the stronger the bet-
ter. Attach a good yoke of cattle to
the small end of the lever and draw
it to the stump. Pass your big chain
around a large root and the lever at
he same time about three feet from
t.^e butt. Fasten the chain tightly
and start the team, driving in a cir-
cle. See how easily the stump will
twist out. A small stump will come
out whole, but large ones will usually
split in two or three pieces. These
can be piled and burned after dry-
ing a short time.
Even the pessimist has his use in
the world. He causes lots of people
to be glad they are not in his class.

Don't Waste Butter.
A great many limes we hear folks
say they don't care if some butter fat
does go over in the milk, that it does
the pigs that get It no harm. Thus they
argue a hand separator does not pay
for Itself as quickly as is often claimed.
Butter fat is worth from 18 to 30
cents a pound, depending upon the
season of the year. Feeding stock a
ration that costs 18 to 30 cents a
pound is a costly piece of foolish-
ness. Oil meal at 1% cents a pound
makes pigs fully as well, and is sev-
eral hundred per cent, cheaper.
Fertilize Liberally.
Orchards should be fertilized liber-
ally in order to keep up the fertility of
the soil. Mineral as well as vegetablo
fertilization is necessary because a
crop of apples removes much more
potash from tho soil than does wheat
It requires large quantities of both
vegetable and mineral matters to pro
duce trees. Unleached wood ashes are
excellent and If potash is used in the
muriate form from 200 to 300 pounds
to the acre should be sown broadcast
