This Way It Wilt Look as If Fresh from the Laundry Her vice. , , Ironing a shirt waist Is always a more or less dlfllcult Job, but for the woman who kuows how the process Is greatly simplified. In tho first place, Iron the collar on the wrong Hide, then on the right, un til quite dry; smooth out tho yoke (If there la one) and Iron It on both sides. Next attack the sleeves. Stretch out the cuff smoothly, laying a pleco of cloth over It and Iron ao thnt the cuff Is partly dried. Then remove tho cloth and Iron the cuff on both shies. Slip the Iron up' Inside the sleeve to dry tbe pithers and to smooth the hems at the opening. Then fold the tipper part; then turn It over sleeves, as tho starch may have made It stick, together, and Iron the shoulder por tion from the wrong side.' Next,' lay tho sleeve on the table and put tho Iron Into the gathers, working from right to left, holding the wrist with the left hand. Place the blouse on the table, with the neck at the left fclde, and beglu -to Iron the front next to you,- running the flatlrou well up Into the gathers at tho neck. Next take the buck and then the other front, amoothlng out the gnthers as you go along, gradually drawing the blouso toward you as It Is finished. The hems and tabs and the binding around ' tbe armholes are ironed on the wrong side. Tbe sleeves are the most troublesome parte of the waist to manipulate and some persons get better results when a sleeve Iron Is used; but .once the art haa been acquired with an ordinary Iron the process Is quicker. If there is a frill down front of the shirtwaist It should be Ironed before the body part. The collar and cuffs, If desired, v may be polished with a polishing Iron, and when the' little creases which como from handling are Ironed out the waist Is ready to be hung up to air. After the shirtwaist Is aired and dry, the folding process comes, and on this the whole success of the Ironing depends. ' Tin the neckband together and plait the front so that It will be no wider than. the back. .Turn the waist over on a board and lap. the sleeves down at the sides; then fold them upward so that the cuffs show above the neckband. Tin them to po sition. Now fold the sleeves back so that they meet invthe center of tho back and pin them there; next double tho waist up in the bock, Just below the waistline. This, folding process should be done without creasing, and your waists are ready for shirtwaist box or bureau drawer. Philadelphia Record. v MUST BE GOOD LISTENER. Emotion Over Small Talk Necessary to . Social Success, , ' ' "One of the first qualifications for a man or woman who alms at being a 'social success' la the ability to talk and listen to twaelle la such a way that tbe fnce aball express all tbe depths of peut up emotion, while the ears drink In the trivialities or Die tongue echoes tin gossip of scandal of the hour." This sentiment waa uttered with much unction by a man of uncertain age, whose face aud figure have for years been familiar In the club. In tbe ball rooms, and other pUce of social resort In Chicago. Ills hearer was 9 much younger man, whom by precept and by example be waa trying to Initi ate Into the myateries of social life. The two men were at a theater large ly attended by tbe men and women who collectively constitute the myste rious entity, Chicago society, and they were watching a couple seated In one of the boxi. "Now watcb tbe young man and woman chwely,' continued tbe mentor, "and tell me what you tiiink they are talking about You see, that they are both young, both bandaome. I can tell you that they are both rich and of high social standing, if you don't know them yet you must make their acquaintance at once, for no one ran be In society without Knowing them. Their conversation seems to be Interesting, docKtt't It?" "What are the words," continued the elder man, "of which tlmt pretty pic ture U the accompaulineiit? "Is he telling her one of those fairy tales which all maids love to hear, of respectful admiration and changeless affections? Are thoae arched, sidelong little glances exclamation points . by which the maiden signifies her delight at the picture which the young man's Imagination has painted? I can tell you Juat what the subject Is. You know that a scandalous story about two well known people began to circu late yesterday. That young man knows all about It, for be has excellent sources of information. Ills compan ion knows something, about It and is anxloua to know more. He Is satisfy ing her curiosity, and they are both gloating over the charming little bit ol scandal. But my boy, they are both artists, and you must school yourself to play your part aa well as they. The next time that you have occasion to tell a girl how many thousand dollars are Involved In the latest engagement transaction you must do it with the same careftsmg grace In your glance and In your gestures that thla young fellow brings Into play. ' Then, as reward for making a fool of yourself, the girl will perhaps reply by one of those half smiles which you seem to admire so much." Chicago Tribune. MARRIAGES IN FRANCE. t They Are Arranged by the Parent -Breaches of PromlseKare. Breaches of promise are rare In France, where marriages are ao care fully arrangedby parents, trustee and lawyers on both tide. Recently, bow ever, at the first chamber of the Tri bunal of the $elne there was decided an action in which a widow sued a merchant for refusing to marry her daughter, to whom be was engaged. The merchant is established In Furls, and the plaintiffs mother aud daughter lived at Tours. Last year the defend ant saw the young lady, who is very prepossessing, and In due course of time he proposed marriage to her. She of course referred him to her mother, who had no objection whatever to the match. Everything then worked smoothly. Rings were exchanged, the merchant walked out with the young ludy and her mother, banns were pub lished, the marriage contract was drawn up by the notaries, rooms' were selected for the young couple and In vitations to the wedding were sent out A few days before that fixed for the wedding tho merchant changed Llr mind. He said that his affection for his fiancee was Intense, but he was dubious about her mother. He had serious apprehensions as to the results of having a mother-in-law, so he pre ferred to remain free from any of the shackles Imposed by matrimony. The young lady was so disappointed that she became seriously 111. v.Her mother, seeing that the merchant adhered to his deelftlon, suggested that he ahould give some compensation, as prepara tions for .the marriage that failed had obliged her to disburse a good deal of money. The widow's suggestion was scouted, so ahe went to law, acting, in her own name and as her daughter's guardian and trustee. The Judges of tbe tribunal of the Seine decided In fa vor of her daughter. They held that the defendant in the action had with drawn his promise without n.V seri ous reason end that be had acted In an unjustifiable and abrupt manner, which caused prejudice to the young lady to whom he had been engaged. ,He was accordingly compelled to pay the per son who bad suffered most from his conduct 200 damages. Nothing was allowed to the mother, the court con sidering that she had sustained no mor al prejudice personally by the breach of promise of the defendant1 Potato Water lot Silver. .

It was not long before be was advanced to tue more respon sible position of fretght conductor, re sponsible In these days, but far more so, relatively, In those.

Up to that time, it had not been con sidered practicable, to run trains at night; when nightfall came, freight trains and passenger trains alike were "tied up," their Journeys to be resumed only when. daylight came.
