The Collecting Craz.

thing or other, or If t&ey do not them
selves collect, they am generally Inter

collections of other people, especially
when Jhose "others" appen to be
worldwide celebrltlea.
Miss Ellen Terry, with her usual en
thusiasm, has for many years past
many years past made a collection of
the pincea-nes and ronoclea of fa
mous men.
Fans, old buttons, miniatures, snuff
boxes, carved oak. Inlaid furniture and
old time gloves are among the many
things that enthusiastic twentieth cen
tury collectors go almoat craay over.
Broken china Is another hobby that
can give a great deal of pleasure for
a comparatively small outlay, says
Home Chat.
An old Dresdeu china Cupid complete
would be a very expenytve thing, but
minus a wing or a leg he Is of but lit
tle value to those who collect perfect
specimens and pay prohibitive prices
for them. 1

I am positively certain that men
truly, even If unconsciously, admire
extravagant , women, and by extrava
gant I mean "scientific? extravagance,
a term. I will explain la.ter, sjjsa
pretty woman. As a matter or met
only the other day a husband of one
of my friends said to me. "It's true
that many of us like women to be am
tiltious, and when they are ambitious
In dress we secretly admire their cour
age and pluck in attaining their ends.
"Now, I would like my wife to ba
more extravagant She Is far too
economically minded, and her one ex
presalon about any expensive dress or
pretty trifle In the way of Jewelry or
ornament Is always, 'I can do without
It' Now the woman who 'does with
out if is not the one who pleases a
man'a eye or gratifies his taste. It is
the girl who knows what will suit her
and who insists on having the very
best In dress If she can pay for it.
This Is the girl who claims and gets
a man's admiration."
Do It Now.
When a fence Is down, put it op, and
then it will not get" any worse. When
a harness Is broken, mend it before
you have a runaway or before It be
comes worthless. When weeds, bugs
or fungi threaten, get after them be
fore the damage Is done. Farm Jour
