Dear Elsa While waiting for Dick to
join me at the Grand Central station
the other day I whiled away the time
(fifteen minutes, mind yon men are
always punctual!) by observing the peo
ple who used the little mirrors over the
automatic chewing gum machines.
It was funny to note the different
ways in which the glasses were used
by the women and the men. When a
pretty girl came tripping along and
caught the reflection of her face in the
mirror she immediately looked to see if
her nose was shiny and, if so, surrep
titiously or openly, according to her
nature, applied a dab of powder; or she
readjusted her veil or tucked in a way.

justified her vanity or was it vanity
after all? But the men. my dear! They
don't care a rap whether their noses
are shiny or not Still I noticed that
they spent just as long a time in front
of the mirrors gazing at themselves as
the women. And such tricks as they
played 'twould make the angels weep
to see them. They turned their heads
first this way and then that, looked
straight into their soulful eyes, turned
back their upper lips and closely ex
amined their teeth and even smiled at
themselves to get the effect :
Now, from all these signs and won
derful grimaces I gathered that our,
masculine friends were freely looking
at and admiring themselves and that'

The distance was not great between

if
wouia not only give tne required space,
but would be a boon in the boarding
place at the seashore. -
'A telephone inquiry as to the cost of
the wardrobe trunk quickly showed
this little mother that another way out
of the difficulty must be found.
By putting her brains to work it
Was not long before the solution came.
In the back hall upstairs there was a
cheap chiffonier of oak, in which were
kept the children's dresses and under
wear. She decided that if she could
do it she would take the chiffonier
as it stood, doing away, you see, with
the bother of packing it first and re
packing its contents in a trunk.
This clever little lady called up an
express company and asked if she
could express an uncrated chiffonier
and, if so, what it would cost She was
told that she could do so and that the
express charge would be $1.20 for
every hundred pounds. Madam then
set to work upon the receipt of this
joyful news to arrange the contents of
the chiffonier more carefully with a
view to safe transportation.
After the contents of the chiffonier
had been settled the five drawers were
locked and the whole thing was cov
ered with an "old piece of canvas and
firmly tied with rope. The express
company delivered it safely at the ho
tel and it was placed in her room at
a total cost of $1.80.
Just think, dear, of the comfort and
convenience one can gain if her "think
tank" will only work a little overtime.
For the last few weeks I have had
the most hoplessly ignorant Swedish
maid to struggle with it has ever been
my bad fortune to encounter. Although
I had to labor long and earnestly to
instruct her how to do the simplest
household duties there is one useful
thing she taught me. It is this: How
to dispose of left over ice cream that
is, cream that has been turned out on
a plate.
The Swedish idea is to take a glass
fruit jar, large or small, according to
the quantity of the cream, and pack
the cream down hard in it with a
spoon. I want to emphasize that word
"pack" because I think it is that which
makes the process so successful. When
the cream is in the jar put a piece of
paper over the top and then screw on
the cover as tightly as you can. Now
place the jar back in the pail with
the salt and ice. Several hours after
this process has been accomplished you
will find the ice cream as firm as when
first made, if not even better, no mat
ter how soft it may have been when it
was put in the jat. You will not find
this the case, however, unless the pail
has plenty of ice left in it
As Dick and myself are not iee
cream fiends we consider this new
packing scheme a great saving in the
high cost of living.
Don't you fairly hate the words
"high cost of living?" Well, if you
can look at the matter with fortitude
there is one who cannot or will not
and that's yours devotedly,
MABEL.
THE WISDOM OF EPICTETUS.
When you. make any charge
against providence, consider, and
you will learn that the thing
has happened according to rea
son. ' Yes. but the unjust man
has the advantage. In what? In
money. Yes, for he is superior
to you in this that he falters
not is free from shame and is
watchful. What is the wonder?
But see if he has the advantage
over you in being faithful, in
being modest, for you will not
find it to be so, but wherein you
are superior there you will find
that you have the advantage.
If a man has frequent inter
course with others, either for
talk or drinking together or gen
erally social purposes, he must
either become like them or
change them to his own fashion,
for, if a man places a piece of
quenched charcoal close to a
piece that is burning, either the
quenched charcoal will quench
the other or the burnuig char
coal will light (hat which is
quenched. Since then the dan
ger is so great we must cautious
ly enter into such intimacies
with those of the common sort
and remember that it is impos-sible-that
a man can keep com
pany with one who is covered
with soot without being partaker
of the soot himself.
One man must keep watch,
another must go out as a spy.
and a third must fight and it is
not possible that all should be
in one place, nor is it better that
N it should be so But you, neglect
ing to do the commands of the
general, complain when anything
more hard than usual is Imposed
on you. and you do not deserve
what you make the army be
come as far as it is in your pow
er. If all imitate you no man
will dig a trench, no man will
put a rampart round nor keep
watch nor expose himself to
danger, but will appear to be
useless for the purpose of an
army.
Seized the Opportunity.
There were bold thieves and bold
methods in the earlier days in Holborn.
Here is an example:
Said a stout, asthmatic old gentleman
to a well dressed stranger who was
passing: "A rascal has stolen my hat.
I tried to overtake him, but I'm so out
of breath I can't stir another inch."
The stranger surveyed the other with
critical eye. The victim was puffing
and panting as for dear life. In the
pleasantest tone in the world the stran
ger said, "Then I'll be hanged, old boy,
if I don't have your wig!" So saying,
he snatched that article from the suf
ferer's head and ' departed like the
wind, leaving him with head as bare
as a babe's. St James' Gazette.
Oh. Where Was She?
"That new cook I secured is certain
ly oiiiet." said Mr. Dubbs happily.
"One would .never know she is about
the place." "
"She isn't." chimed in Mrs. Dubbs.

Gambetta' Lost Eye.
Gambetta, the French patriot, had
but one eye. How he came to lose
the other in childhood is told by a
writer: "It appears that Gambetta had
such a dislike to going to school that
he said to his father that unless he
were taken from school he would poke
one of his eyes out His father In
sisted .on his remaining on at school,
whereupon Gambetta did as he had
threatened to do, and on his father
remonstrating with him he said that
if his father sent him back again to
school he would poke the other eye
out Such a determined character was
he that his father had finally to give
way to him.'
Crime and Light.
It may seem siruuj;e. says a London
paper, that uiurdeis could possibly in
crease the dividends of gas consumes,
but that happened at tile time of the
notorious "Jack the Kipper" crimes
It would be no exaggeration to say
that the whole east end of London
went in fear of death. These ghastly
murders were all committed in dark
spots, like unlit doorways, and the immediate-
result was that people used
much more snis. The sale of candles

LITTLE THINGS.

With praise of such does heaven

Of kindness, oft the sweetest heard.
Shrink not the smallest mite to give

WARNING
Since its introduction into the Unit
ed States, the sales of Parisian Sage
have been phenomenal. This success
has led to many imitations. Look out
for them, .get the genuine. See that
the girl with the Auburn hair is on
every package.
Parisian Sage is the quickest act
ing and most efficient hair tonic in
the world.
It is made to conform to Dr. San
gerbond's (of Paris) proven theory
that dandruff,, fairing hair, baldness
and scalp itch are caused by germs.
Parisian Sage kills these dandruff
germs and removes all trace of dan
druff in two weeks, or money back;
it stops falling hair and itching scalp
and prevents baldness.
And remember that baldness is
caused by dandruff germs, those little
hard working? persistent devils that
day and night do nothing but dig in
to the roots of the hair and destroy
its vitality.
Parisian Sage is a daintily perfum
ed hair dressing; not sticky or greasy,
and any woman who desires luxuriant
and bewitching hair can get it in two
weeks by using Parisian Sage. 50
cents a bottle at Huntley Bros. Co.,

FASHION STILL FAVORS THE' SIMPLE FROCK FOR INFORMAL WEAR
7893
7S9I
Simple as to line are these early
Autumn frocks, but they show little
touches of novelty in the cut of the
collar, or some odd quirk in sash ar
rangement. Here are two that illus
trate this. The first 7891 is a per
fectly simple, practical model, with
the convenient closing front that wo
men will not give up in a hurry.
The novelty lies in the shaped trim
ming section of the stamped leather,
soft as a glove, that forms a sort of
extension of the front lap and in the
girdle and sash of crocheted silk
which is the tie of a butterfly bow.
Paris is simply mad over butterflies
and they are shown in almost every
thing. Hats, girdles, lingerie, and in
lace, ribbon, jewels and braid.
The crocheted girdle is another new
note and the women are crocheting
these as they did the mans scarfs a
short time ago. Dotted shallis, pop
lin, or faills may be used in fashioning
this frock which is in six sizes, 34 to
44. requiring for the 36 size 4 7-8
yards of 36-inch material.
New Collar Styles
The shaping of the collor of the
other dress, 7893, is new, and the com
bination of materials is cleverly work
ed out, giving the impression of a
coat blouse and skirt, though the dress
is in reality a one-piece affair.
The peplum effect is gained by mak
ing the blouse and the yoke of the
flowered taffeta, black with huge crim
son roses, while a soft rose like silk
forms the lower part of the skirt and
sash. .
The closing is in front, and the
waist is drop-shoulder style. Five
sizes, 34 to 42, and for size 36 3 yards
36-inch material, flowered, and 2 1-2
pards plain will be required. Each
pattern is 15 cents.
