Toor physical health handicap" tnany girl workers and prevents the highest development of their powers An anaemic brain produces poorer work than one that Is nourished by blood rich In red corpuscles. The dys peptic girl la irritable, seedy, and out of sorts when all her vitality Is called on to make a special effort In her work. "Nerves" may make all the dlf ference between success or failure. To keep her health up to a good standard ought to be the aim of every girl who wlshs to make something I of her life. Too many girls allow themselves to drop Into poor hfalth, which Is so apt to become chronic un less the tendency Is checked at the be ginning. A girl owes a duty to herself to keep fit and well and attend to her digestion, her muscles, her breathing. The habits of breathing properly, chewing the food thoroughly, dally ex ercises out of doors, are all small mat ters; but one or two rules of dally conduct occasionally broken contrive after a time to affect physical health and personality both.

T!IK "crowning glory of a woman Is her hair" and It therefore is In order to remark that one of the phases of such glory is very much lu evidence In connection with the coro nation coiffure in which the hair Is dressed somewhat In the fashion of a crown. The new coiTure has taken such a hold on the up to-the-moment fashion- I able women, that the flat-to the head j VELVET BANDS ARE 'IKED Some Kind of Black Adornment 8een on Almost Every Kind of Coiffure Today. P.lack velvet bands, one or two, studded wl'h gold or Jeweled buckles, are for the classic style of coljure, while the more coquettish girl uses them finished with a knot on each side, a spray of silver aigrette on one side or a bunch of drooping silk rose balls Satin ribbon Is uoed as a twist, soft folds, flat lands, plain, embroid ered, beaded, lure appliqued, ditto gilt, with a bow, fan, knot, etc.. Just back of the left ear. The exact position for the chief or nament of a band Is according to the wearer's head, a long, short, or broad shape requiring different placing of this finishing touch. All ages from fifteen years wear hair ornaments. It will not be long before yellow hair will again be the fashion. The mahogany Fhide so long favored Is showing lighter effects all the time, and hair dyes are rapidly approach ing the straw tint. And It has been made plain that the new gold or straw tint is to be w It hou rluster. A DAINTY DRESS.

STATIONERY IN THE BOUDOIR French Dimity This season Seems to Have Been Set Apart for Us of the Young Girl. For a young girl's use there Is no stationery more suitable than the fabric finished surfaced French dim ity which comes lu white, gray and stone blue square sheets of corre spondence and hasty note slie. with envelopes of matching dimensions fif an equally refined and dainty char acter are the linen lawn papers In solid tints of aeroplane, dawn pink, Ilaltlc blue, willow green, orchid and cream the hemstitched fabric cross bar In white bordered with a pale shade of color, and the diagonally striped fabric In two tones of mauve, blue or buff. A fad of the hour, and one permis sible only as a Joke when a note passes between two very Intimate young girls, Is the red-edged, tan-colored "Chanllcler" paper, which has a crowing rooster embossed at the top of each sheet I.awnette correspondence cards for acceptance and regrets are accom panied by envelopes having seml elllptlcal or triangular flaps on which a monogram or Initial may be en graved. This stationery cornea In a variety of pale tints, of which buff, nale gray, gray blue or whit- are pret tiest Luncheon place rards matching the shades and patterns of the French dimity and crossbar lawn fabric fin ished stationery are exceedingly smart and In eminently good taste, as are also ranis of umbrella shape bearing hand palntpd violets, daisies and cro cuses and In cut out flower and fig ure designs. The Waist Line. Though the waist line la less ver satile than It used to be, and Is more and more Inclined to a'sume the con ventional jsisltlon, the empire effect Is mill to be seen. For reception and dancing gowns It Is graceful, 'and the soft outline It gives to the figure Is delightfully picturesque. Hut for the street all this Is out of place; It gives tho wearer a silhouette that Is un tidy, and suggests a looseness that Is altogether objectionable. In regard also to evening gowns the same fault may be found. So long aa a toilette Is to be worn chiefly while walking or standing, the short waist Is permissi ble even desirable but for a din ner, concert or theater It Is no longer so. The bust unconflned fulls out of shape, and the figure cut Is most un attractive and It Is the realisation of this fact that has led to so many of the newest evening bodices being made with swathed draperies and close fitting lines. As to ths Flraplacs. The sides of a fireplace should b well splayed or beveled. In order to reflect the heat, says Arts and Decora tion. The back should lean forward at the top, for the same purpose, and the fireplace should not be too deep. A projecting chimney produces an effect of pushing the guest away, whereas a receding ons beckons him nearer, to enjoy ths hospitality of ths open fire. For this reason ths Ingle nook, that Is, ths fireplace built Into -h wall of ths room, Is sspaclally cosy and attractive. iAnu old ptace. I w HAT Is a "gay cut?" Per haps ou have uever heard of him. though you know tout cats, wild cats and fem inine "cats " He Is au In teresting combination, and his spe cies Is numbered by tl ouiands. He Is half tramp, availing himself of all the hobo's expedients for gadding about the world without paying for his trav els, and half man with a trade, the goal of whose rambles Is always a Job Ho has all the "bum's" philosophical contempt for the man so "easy" as to "ride the velvet," which means to pay railroad fare Hut he al'o Incurs the "bum's" astonished ldaln because of bis Incorrigible habit of looking for work. "We travel from wanderlust, from love of adventure," explained an ex "gay cat." who had Joined the "home grard" of those who have ceased from rambling "When I was a youth I wanted to see the country, and ane It right. I wanted excitement. I bad a good trade ami was living at borne, but the lure of the road called me "I could have paid car fare and rid den In the railway rars, but you can't see the country that way. What man looking thronrth the windows of a Pull man car. knows anything about the regions through which he has passed? You must travel a few hours at a time, on a slow freight, and be thrown off at the most unexpected places by brakemen. to see the country. You want to mooch (beg) a handout at backdoors to get acquainted with peo ple. You even learn something when some 'lly mug' (detective) gets so cor dial that he Insists on your staying In his midst for .10 days- on the rock pile. What dude In a palace car can learn ns much about bis native land aa I did In 14 years as a 'gay cat'?" The Wanderlust Never Dies. This man was a miner by trade, and had followed the profession from Pennsylvania to California, and from California to Alaska. He never begged save In an emergency of hunger, and usually had ll.nuo or so tucked away In a bank In this rlty or that. Hut It was only after many years of wander ing as a knight errant of the pickax and shovel that the wanderlust of his youth was quern lied and he settled down to be a prosaic hotel clerk. In tho shabby sitting room of a 10 cent lodging house In St. Iuls there lounged recently half a dozen weather beaten and hardy men, self confident of mien nnd monosyllabic of speech. In their short words was none of the whine of the professional beggar, and In their straightforward look was noth ing of the hangdog. They bad trav eled to most of tho countries of thn globe, and. Ignorant of alien languages and customs, hud supported them selves by the sole resource of their own hands. They were confident of taking care of themselves In any situation. r 1 . 1 hang my h&f. Who would have thought that the squalid parlor. Into which the warm sun filtered, whs a pl.vc of dreams? Hut so It was The taciturn little hln glishrnan In the corner, who waa born In South Africa, was galng Into Sacs iiion the yellow corn fields of the Ar gentlne Kepubllc, u;kii construction camps In the Andes, and utxui broad roads leading by gentle stages through the pampaa from one hospitable ranch to the next Aroiis. d from hi artlc ulnte vision by a question, he staled In a matter of fact way that h would be In Argentine next fall. The booted, gigantic Swedo was thinking of logging camp In Minne sota, of perilous drive to the lake, of fist t (1st battles between champions among the snows Another. In his mind's eye, beheld the sunny orchards of California; another Imagined him self helping build sti-e bridges In Mexico. The sap of spring was rising In their veins, and. like birds of pas sage, they were Impatient to be off A few more weeks would them scat tered to the points of the compass, ensconced In box cars and on blind baggages, but all bent on the quest of their "g ild. n fleece"-ths perfect Job. Some would fall by the wayside mangled or slain beneath the wheel of trains, and would lie burled In the pauper graveyards maintained by the railroads for their vagabond victims, Hut of these the army of wanderer would take no heed. The "giy cat" believe that his con stitutional right to the pursuit of hap plness Includes the privilege of rid Ing on trains without paying fare. Tho most he will do I to pay r.n cents to a "shack" (brakeman) for permission to ride unmolested over his division. Frequently a supposed vagabond crouching painfully in a brake-beam has Jim) In his pocket and a bank book for several hundred more. Hut he would have suspicions of his own sanity should he spend any of his money for the comforts ami re spectability of a wat In a railroad coach. The "gay cat," In an emergency. Is not abashi-d at begging a meal at a backdoor. Hut as ho bus more self, respect, he usually employs greater art and skill In his "mooching" than dose a "bum." One roving mechanic accosted an astonished housewlf,, win, tho question: "Madam, have you a hatchet?" "What do you want with a hatchut?" she countered, suspiciously. "I want to knock my teeth out," an swered ho with solemnity. "Lands alive!" almost screamed the woman. "Why should you knock your teeth out?" "What's the use having teeth If you have nothing to eat?" was the re sponse. The "gny cat" obtained one of those rare feasts known In the ver- ; tiaculnr as a "sit down."
