J &$$$) Grt Chana"f ta Women. "I had rather be a successful wo tonn than an unsuccessful lady." Mr s. prominent woman. This statement makes some or ua alt up who have been Jogging along without milling tha Incompatibility ot attaining suc cess and remaining a tad. Uetor con atderlng tha matter we real I)- ahould define termi, except that no one haa over been able to state Just exactly what a lady la. Success la tha chief desire ot life. Time was when a woman attained the greatest success possible to her mere ly by being a lady. She waa admired, ahe married well, she became a social leader, aud tha highest compliment had been passed when It was aald, "She Is always a lady." Men changed feeeause business mothods changed. Aftd ono ot the greatest factors in this hangs was the tact that the success ful seen were not as a rule gentlemen. To compete with them, the gentlemen fead to change their tactic. Then women went into business, sua a there they found that the things which had been the hallmarks ot the ady were excess baggage. A low. Uaald voice, a tack ot self-aasertlve- stess, a touching dependence upon the earest masculine representative, an aloofness from the material things of Ufa, easily shocked sensibilities, an overplus ot sentiment, an uawintng fees to do anything that would make feer la the least conspicuous, a woman found did not raise her wages or ad Vance her position in the working feree. Besides, she found that the mta ahe was brought Into contact with fco longer admired the qualities to which they had formerly written son Mta and dashed off Byrbnlc prose. The question naturally suggests It self to our speculative minds, that nlace people range themselves In grades, what will be the highest type t the present feminine members of ecletyT What will be the adjective t couple with woman to express the most admirable mixture of qualities In fcer? As for women themselves, they can comfort themselves In this transition atate, while uaanchored by the Ideal etf being a lady, and not yet supplied With another guiding star, with the reelection that very few famous wo sbh have been ladles. As we look back, a lady meant a person with so jmtny negations and Inhibitions that iisve was pretty much hobbled when It ease to accomplishing anything mo 'seateus. The men also will have to give thought to the problem that they JBHSt get out and hustle to hold their ewm with the woman who has dis carded the out-of-date garment of per fect ladyship. Halt Sapportera, Among the numerous artifices used fey women who are short on hair and few women have enough to carry out the coiffures foisted on them by the hairdressers in the past few years the supporter de signed by a Wash Ington woman and abown herewith Is one of the most ef ficient. A wire frame has a cres cent-shaped turn on top and a projecting support at the back, both covered with false hair, like the regulation "rat," or holding a One wire screen. The two are Joined fcy two wires, U-shaped. This support--er Is placed on the bead when the fcalr Is down, and when the hair Is doae up the pads underneath give It the appearance of being much more abundant than It really Is. Ta Claaa Llnoleant. Floor covering of good llneleum for the kitchen ahould hold Its own for at least five years. The way to pro long its period of usefulness Is to keep It clean; dirt ground Into the finished surface by the tread of feet ta the floor covering's greatest enemy. Linoleum needs no soap, ammonia. or strong cleaning agents. A simple wiping with a cloth Just moist with warm water Is all that Is needed. In one country home skimmed mllz mixed with the water was used, but the owner bad a herd of thirty cows. Once or twice a year give the linoleum n wiping with good furniture polish to renew Its smooth surface. Hn, 1ottstTor'ti'a Gowns. Mrs, Nicholas Longwortb is again among the leaders of fashion In the MtJoual capital, and her gowns are the models of her contemporaries. She wears the draped garment entirely, a-nd she is fond ot tissues and of the knitted silk effects, These gowns are among the most expensive things of the season. Mrs. Longworth's knitted draperies and waists always are cor cred with gold or sliver beads,' She teas selected yellow for this season, and all her gowns are ot various shades ot this color.

There are "Chantecler" clocks and napkin rings. The erase haa come as suddenly as the revived Dlrccfclre styles, and with the promise that It will probably pass as quickly. Yet In the tailnor articles ot feminine adornment, lu the crests, cockades, plumage and feathery ornament. Its In fluence la likely to be felt longer. KUelrle Bread Baklasr. Electric baking ovens have long been available, but their use has not spread very rapidly, probably because of the cost or the difficulty of procuring the requisite current. In the little Swiss town of Kerns, "where electric power Is cheap, the electric baking oven haa Just been established In a satisfactory manner. In a furnace less than eight feet long, one hundred pounds ot bread. In loaves of one and three pounds each, can be baked at one time, and eight bakings can be made In twelve hours. The cost of the heating Is a little more than 1 cents a pound ot bread. Youths Companion. T Aaj Injaatle e Wtnii, Who will aay that women are afraid? Who will venture to call them the "weaker sex?" The true modern woman fears no peril. Wo already know that ahe like all women, at all times could endure even the most ex SOME CHANGES There Is to be a radical change In sleeves. But tho old ones can be remodeled and built to look like new which Is always welcome news to those who have good waists left over from last year. Plain tailored leg o mutton sleeves with buttons to the elbow are tha favorites for tailored dresses. For dress-up wear, the elbow sleeve, with three-quarter length un dersleeve of mull or mousaellno will be most popular. A pretty gray plaid French gingham dress shown recently In a fashionable shop has rather full sleeves with deep cuff piped with plain gray. This design Is said to be one of the prettloet sleeves of the season. Elbow sleeves, mosuquetalre sleeves shirred from, shoulder to knuckles, sleeves with elbow tucks to form a fullness at that point and those with fullness tucked at the shoulder and wrist arc all good. eructating pain with admirable forti tude, and, generally speaking, much better than the average man. And yet In spite of these facts, thero are men who will deny that fearlessness, as they deny that fortitude. There still exists and there will probably always exist the type ot husband, for In stance, who tells his wife, after she has already gone through some terri ble physical agony: "Well dono, little woman: you bore It like a manl" Philadelphia Ledger.

The Salvationists hold services In Iblrty-two languages and are led by IS 000 officers, assisted by 30,000 local officers, men aud women, who earn their living by the aweat of their browa and give their time and money and work to the cause.

"Now, what are you doing to lift up the people who are down? the poor, the drunkard, tho sinful, the hungry, and the poor lassies who have gone over tha line and who are In tho worst hell this side of the river? What are you doing for them all? Do you think It Is my special work; that you have no part In It? Will you help me? Will you help the Salva tion Army? Will you help with your sympathy and prayer? You may say: "Wo have our churches and missions to maintain,' What a pitiful condi tion your city would be tn If you did not have. When you have done all this there will be something left for the Salvation Army. The Salvation Army is no longor an experiment. It has passed out of the area of specula tion.
