MAN would Infinitely prefer to bo disappointed In his wife's In tellect than In her personal up- peanince If he has to be disillusioned on either one point or the other after mar Tlae, and yet how many women take chances with their marital happiness by drifting Into slovenly or careless ways, which are sure to disgust u man, no matter how much In love he may be. Do wo not all of us know some such Instance In our own circle of acquaint uncus whero n pretty, attractive girl hits degenerated Into an unattractive, untidy woman within a few short year of the time when she stood at the altar radiant In the freshness of her youthful beauty, the delight of her husband's t-yu and the Joy of bin heart' The llrst Hop downward generally takes the form of curl papers. Ah, how many divorces can bo traced directly to the baleful Inlluenco of those unsightly Jknoln to which a woman so oon en deavors to accustom her husband, but which, If sho only knew, are the thin edge of tuu wedge that opens the gap between them. Then she acquires the wrapper habit and thinks nothing of wearing the same nondescript and unbecoming gar ment from morning until night. Little by little she neglects to take her hair out of papers, reserving thin process for vpeclnlly Important occasions, until her husband hardly recognizes her In her holiday lialr iiiIium I Ik- dlstlgurlug paper wads that have produced the waves and curls, which he, poor, deluded mortal, once thought were natural. Her foot wear resolves llseir Into chronic slip pers, as a rule badly run down at the liecl, and before he Is aware of the fact herself has become absolutely un sightly rather than the attractive worn 'an a little care would make her. Do not think that men fall to appre ciate all the little personal graces of the toilet as much after marralge as be fore It. The money that Is expended on delicate sachet powder, pretty shoes nnd dainty stockings, a fetching little In in mo costume or for the services of manicure or lialrdnttser may be con demned as awful extravagances, but they are condoned much more quickly than the neglect of personal appearance that may save expenditure of both time mid money, hut which wastes that best VohhcmsIoii of a married woman the sincere admiration or her own husband. Philadelphia Times. Woman Dent Int. MIsh Frlede .Mortens, of Holland, Is n successful dentist, and llmls her na tive homo In The Hague an excellent place for practical experience In this comparatively new occupation for women.

A new veil has been Invented as a protection for the hat against the dust, which Is almost more detrimental than thesun, and cannot be warded off In the wiiiiu way. It la made of double width tulle. That portion which serve to cover the face Is Htuddcd with spots, while the other half, Intended to en velop the entire hat, but to hide It as lit tle nt possible, Is plain. The arrange ment of these veils Is not an easy mat ter, and requires the addition of several long pins. To Clean Hllver Oriiuiiiruta. Now that silver ornauienta are so fashionable and many ladles have a SUr? silver table In the drawing-room, It Is sometimes a dlfllcult matter to keep these objets d'art In condition. Of course, the best plan Is to keep them In an ornamental ense, but many prefer to have them arranged m n table. When sliver Is badly tarnished It can bo brightened by dipping the nrtlcles In a strong solution of nnuuonla nnd hot water nnd rubbing with a soft rng dipped In undiluted nmmonlu. Any kind of plate In dally use may be cleansed by Immersion In strong bornx nnd wa ter for three or four hours. The water should be boiling when the bornx and silver are put In. When dry rub with a little dry powder and finally polish with a. leather. Goch to tbc liner AVnr, Miss M. K.

A girl can scarcely be too young to have some Idea of the value of money, mid ii weekly allowance will tench her the pleasure of providing little gifts nnd knlckkuticks out of her own pjdeet. At the ago of IB or 1(1 every girl should have an allowance, out of which she should buy her own gloves, sta tionery and ribbons. This will teach her the use her pocket money can be put to. As she gets older her nllownnco should Include money for her entire wu rd robe. Such an allowance should bo proba tionary, ami should depend upon tho girl's Judgment mid care In tho choos ing of her clothes during the period when the first allowance Is spent.
