"That's tho trouble," replied tin. btiBtUng llttlo manicure. "To much at tention of tho wrong kind! Your ling ers look nagged at, nail and tlesh and all. Some girls complain that they haven't tlmo to niaulcuro their nallB, hut that's becauao they are lazy and haven't formed tho habit of Inklup time. They expect mo to beautify them at a sluglo Bitting. You havo gone too far In tho other direction," nho went on. "To havo nice nails means only about flvo minutes of dally attention and a weekly manicuring. "You sec," pointing to the tip of Bes hIo's nulls, "they look aa If you had cleaned them strenuously with a knife or orango stick, pressing on the nail and tho flesh, marring and Inflaming this lino on the top where nail and flesh join, scraping tho froo Inner edge of tho nail Into u roughness that catches and holds tho dirt and gives an ugly whiteness instead of a deli cate transparency. "My dear, be Just as careful in clean ing your nulls us you aro In cleaning your eyes. Gentle, gentle! Don't hurl Ibem, don't mako them bleed, don't do anything strenuous! "Every rlght-mlndcd girl wauts pret ty finger nails. Sho should havo thorn, too, because tho beautiful is her birth right, and because they aro an ubbcI in life, a llfo of lolsuro or a llfo of work. A curofullly kept nail, Ilka all carefulness in personal appearance, indicates a careful, well ordorcd ml ml. "Now, homo manicuring Is sot tho Insurmountable obstacle that oomn think It Watch mo carefully, llston to every wprd I say, got tho right tools then you can soon develop tho possi bilities of your own nails and can give tbem tho simple caro that Is with in tho means, however limited, of every ordinary girl."

At tho doors of the green-ojed uorpent muy bo laid moro misery than was ever created by any other vice. Jealousy and Its close relation, envy, aro at the back of tho I'uithest reaching chain of wretchedness that was over stretched mound tho world. Tho best known form which Jealousy takes is, of course, that shuwu between sweethearts. This kind of jealousy Is more or less excusable, and Is even ad mired In a mild degree. It Is consid ered a Blgn of great love If the young mau is jculods of every other niuacu lluo being whom his sweetheart ad dressed. It might bo said right here, howover, that trust uud faith In each other aro tho truest marks of deep af fection, not Jealousy. Hut It Is a pop ular fallacy that the mun lu most deep ly lu lovo who dlspluys tho most jeal ousy. There aro other shapes assumed by the green-eyed monster which aro not so easily excused, and therefore con tailed as often as possible. Wo call tho Jealousy of sweethearts tho most common because, it is scon moro often than uny other, hut the other kinds aro just as real only they are hidden from outsiders' eyes. The Jeulousy be tween sisters or brothers is quite as often felt as tho jealousy between lov ers, uud Is us old as Cain aud Abel. lu families whero ono sister is u tri tlo less uttractivo or u bit less talented or capable than another, jeulousy Is oftcu rumpuut, Stnuigo to say, It is not so frequently fouud in families where the difference between tho sls- H hH ,.u vwa.,J . Ukl, VIIH IR VW..IV 1,1 1 ,.,p iim v IHI H lu the money. Take, for example, a sot seen the other day, The modol was created bj a world-famous artist, aud It wus n pressed, so far as tho bands of fur wi'io concerned, In priceless bublr Tim materials of this particular mod el wero duvotyn In a lovely shade of leuf-grreu, dull black sutln uud nar row bunds of kolinsky fur. The quaint muff, which formed a Jelly-bag point lu front, waa mado of duvetyu uud lined with black sutln. This sutln wun corded at the ends aud turned back lu largo gauntlet cuffs, hoidered with tur. Tljc strulght tie, which was mod el ate In length, was lined with tho haine corded satin, aud It wus fuutoued where tho ends crosFCd with a largo htcol buckle, beuutiful and the othor very plum, when ono is greatly gifted and the oth or quite commonplace, or when one Is a brilliant business woman und tho other u simple home body, tho less conspicuous slater is as a rule very proud of her sister's attainments. But when the race Is neck und neck, so to speak, and one Is not quite up to tjie other, then Jeulousy bus Its oppor tunity and generally uses It. When the mother or father has a favorlto among tho children the oth ers uro very often Jealous. When tho mother is a bit more partial to oue duughter thau to another there Is al ways that feeling of competition among them to seo which can draw forth moro demonstrations of affec tion. Of course, no mother should dlupluy favoritism among her children, but it is quite n at u nil that one should be it little more congenial than tho others. It is not strange under such circum stances that the motlior should prefer to bo the most often with the child whose tautCH are tho same aa hers. This Is no reason why tho others should be jealous, for the mothor's heart Is big enough to hold them all. That Is the tragedy of ull Jealousy -ItH utter uselcssness. Those who al low the green-eyed monster to attack them in one guise or another, suffer all In vain, for what good do their pnugs do them? Not a bit! The youug man only torments himself to no avail, for if his sweetheart is not true his Jeul ousy will not help him to recover her love, aud If she Is true his doubts only hurt her and harm hlrii. The girl who is not quite so brilliant as her sister will And that If bhe for gets her jealousy and allows the bweeter part of her nature to govern, she will have admirers euough of her crunu of clrlH of niudeiL iilu "aBB . r ,f vow bands of kolinsky fur. The quaint JWCV YOm7iV FASeiON Tight Shapes Are MY Mllb. KINGSUJY EI UK tight, shaped coat luu tir arrived. Oue of tho shaped coats which hud a full babquc was seen this week. Tho llttlo gaimeut wus of modoruto length, and It wus fastened by four very large but tons which crossed the llguro from left to right. Tho material of tha cos tume was velvet cloth In a delightful shade of dull strawberry pink, and tho skirt waa arranged In two tiers, giv ing a flounced effect. The coat wau lined with creamy whlto satin and fin ished with u collar mudo of skunk, u cosy skunk muff uccompunlng tho costume, This is quito a new outline, and It is one which Is certain to become popu larand rapidly. Several of the loud lug.dressmukcrs and tullors iu Purls ure making these tight coats and tho Parlblennea have accepted them with enthusiasm. It must bo noted thut the waist out lino remains normal that is to Bay, natural. Women have realized thut plnched-ln wulsts aro very luartistlc, and they decllno to havo an ugly und meaningless fashion forced on them. Waists curve lu slightly uothlug more thau that, Smoke-gray duvotyn trimmed v. Itli smoke-gray fox makes an Ideal winter costume for street wear. Imitation fox muy bo substituted for the ieal fur without any grout loss of effect, uh tho art or imitating (on skins has hecu brought to great perfection. Smoke-gray duvctyn is particular!) becomlug to fulr women, and the sub dued tlut permits the Introduction of a splendid noto of rich color violet crlmsou, or deep blue In tho hat or toque. When expense has not to be closely considered smoko-gray unte lopo boots should accompany tho dress. A smart wulklng costumo was car ried out In chiffon, velvet and fiii. The velvet wus chosen lu u dark shade of suphire blue, and both coat and skirt wero trimmed with blue-gray wolf. The high Russiau collar of fur wus fouud most becoming, uud the cout wus fust eued on one side with three fur but tons. Tho fulluobs at tho waist wus held In by a soft sush of durk sap phire blue satlu, uiilshcd with tas- AYE jour old silk raincoat to to mako n nlco bathing suit for next summer. Cut tho blouse .and skirt from tho best part and make tho bloomers from what Is left over, or from mohair. Tilm It with u bright braid aud mako u tie and cap from the spuro pieces. Another use lor tliut old roat Is to mako It Into waterproof bugs which uro very handy for carrying rubbers or slippers to hcIiooI this winter. These bags uro made In the shape of envelopes and aro half a yard loug aud nearly un wide. Iliiul all around with uipn and lusteu with a unup. At the top aud at each end fasten braid a yard lung. Thin mul.es it convenient to sling the bag over the shoulder and carry In this manner. 1IH uowest patchwork has u wonderful cliurm of its own. Quilts, cushions und tho like made of It should sell well at ono of the many cluuity bazaars which will soon bo tho vogue. You tuko, nay, for a child's coverlet, u squurc of quilt ed muslin, white fur preference, and apply to It a wreath of flowers of fruit that you havo cut nut In wuBhug silk or lliicu. Tho flowers, fruit uud leaves must bo of bright colors und cut out deftly with u pair of sharp scissors and busted onto tho square of muslin beforo they are neatly sown rouud. A brown basket design tilled with llttlo oranges aud lemons and grapes Is handsome un a green or purple silk cushion, Cherries with their leaves are charming on pulo green linen, fierge and other woolen muterlals for foundation und appliques muy be pressed, of course, luto tho service. Really the quaint aud pretty possibili ties that llo lu the art of the now patchwork uro endless. How glad one la thut a fresh turn has been glvnu to the dear old handicraft. 0 cut buttonholes through two or threo thicknesses of mu terlul without separating tho fabrics murk pluco und size of buttonholo with basting thread or chalk and with a line stitch and thread to match tho buttonholo twlat stitch with muchlno each side of and quito close to this mark, Cut tho button holo between the lines of stitching. This will not only hold tho various thicknesses together, but will form a stay over which the buttonhole may bo worked. All buttonholes should bo dumpened ami pressed.
