Some morning- they're all Koing to be missing and their employ ers will find they're staying at home thinking themselves beautiful." "But there's nothing in it," said Cyn thia. "I've seen it tried. Don't you re member Sallie Morton who graduated with us at Madame Blank's and after wards taught at Smith's? She always had the beauty craze. That's why she taught she thought being employed, having an object, would beautify her. Just when sht- got a good start she found that she was aging. " Her vaca tion used to be simply one strenuous 1 quest of beauty and health. But she got older every minute and more fad ed. Finally she married didn't care much about the man but thought it might help some. He was awfully de voted, and she knew he'd wait on her, and having found the doctrine of the strenuous life a failure she was inclined to try ignoble ease,' awhile. So she gave herself up to a life of luxury and sybaritism breakfast in bed, driving everywhere she went, and all that, with the serious intent of becoming beautiful. And did she? Not she. She tried so hard that she became worn and thin in the struggle. I tell you, it's the girls who never think about it who look the best faces, figures, clothes and every thing. It's forgetting your looks instead of thinking about them that does it. In difference it's the greatest blessing in the world except health. A combina tion of the two is the one formula for contentment. All things may come to him who waits I don't know but it's a cinch they do if he forgets what he's waiting for." She paused to refill her cup. "And then Mrs. Cheney goes on to ask if your bull's-eye is working right?" said the other girl. "Your what!" gasped Cy nthia. "Yes, the bull's-eye of your deepest consciousness, you know. If it is, you're a perfectly harmonious beinc and that's better than beauty in fact it is beauty ' psyemcauy speaking and that's the only way we ought to speak, you know. It's the only way Mrs. Cheney speaks." "Dear me," sighed Cynthia. Millinery openings have begun. These are always interesting, for hats begin to look heavy and rather shabby aftsr the first of March, and new ones ire very attractive, says a writer in the New York Post. Generalizing from the models shown so far, it may be said that the hat has in a measure super seded the turban in summer millinery. There are turbans to be had. certainiv but most women will prefer the h-its made small and close by folding and twisting the broad and flexible brims. The new sunk braids a,re beautiful, and some of the simplest hrtts are made very expensive on account of the fine ness of the material. A satin straw braid, rather coarse and looselv woven was marked $:1S. It was a sort of a toque, and had not a particle of trim ming except bows and loops of the braid. The workmanship, however, vva:i exo.uisite. It was apparent that the hat to wear over the face. usually made with a brim turned up sharply in the back is to te a typical model. Dozens of those have been seen, but no two at all alike. Another characteristic feature of the new hats is the extremely high bandeau AH hats sit hirh on the head. This is trying to sonu faces, but decidedly be coming to others. Surely the big pom padour will have to be abandoned if this model is to become onnnlar a for shapes, it may be said that crowns - .

A few round sailor shapes have been seen. A great deal of mauve and violet seems to be called for. In fact, those appear to be the color of the season f-o far. A charming model, which stood out among dozens of hats at a late week opening, was a pale violet chip turban rolled up in the back, with a high bandeau which tipped the hat far forward over the brow. The under part of the brim was lined with malines in a matching shade, and the entire crown of the hat was- covered with- exquisite lilacs. There were more lilacs to droop over the hair at the back, with ribbon bows and ends mingled. This was chamingly simple and effective. The fashion of trimming hats with several varieties of floivers is hard to grow enthusiastic over. One little hat of the poke bonnet order was trimmed around the brim with pansies, rosebuds lilacs, cowslips, and green leaves. The effect was good enough, as far as the color combination was concerned, but the mixture was too incongruous. One would not have greatly cared to see so many flowers heaped together m a gar den. Some combinations are attractive. A green tulle turban trimmed with pale lilacs and a few pansies was delightful. Likewise a sailor of lilac straw wreath ed with deeper lilacs and very gorgeous pansies. Much discretion should enter into any combination of flowers. ve have long outgrown the miscellaneous bouquet with a lace paper frill around it. Millinery should be consistent. The lingerie hat has been brought to a state of perfection. The handsomest of these are extremely simple, and de pend on their daintiness and the beau ty of their materials for their charm.

It should be reserved for garden parties, weddings, and other dressy occasions. Margy wrapped her bath towel around her as she sprang dripping from the tub and rushed to the door. "What is it?" she demanded, and backed behind "Laundry," came from the other side. "Well, I should think so," said Margy. "It's a whole week late." "A fire next-door does it," explained thp hnv adrlimr .t1.25." "Goodness! Can't you leave it? I'm not dressed yet." "Can't leave it without it's paid. "Then I'll have to shut you out, and don't you dare leave!" she commanded. She tripped her way to her desk, made out a check and exchanged it for the bundle of clothes. "They are just in time, if I am to get up there at all, she communed with herself, discarding the row of things she had taken off when preparing for the water. Then, when the whistle of the boy faded from the steps, she opened the bundle. There were three white waistcoats, eleven collars. No. 17; five night shirts and a bunch of half hose, about $3.50 worth of them. . . She reached the party very late. So did he. "To tell the truth," he admit ted "my wash got hung up somewhere and I was short of collars. I got a package all underwear and pretty things. But say, I couldn't wear them. Then said she, "Oh!" Cincinnati En quirer. Although, an amazing amount , of material is needed for the fashionable gown, the fashions are rather favor able for those of us who make over our clothes. Sometimes a short length of silk or other fabric, say twelve yards, is on hand. Just now one may use such lengths very well. Most of the material is put into the skirt, which must be full. The waist is com nnH mainlv of lace, dyed to match, or otherwise brought into harmony with the gown color, with strips of the material applied, bretelles. or a short bolero over the lace. A gown of porcelain blue chiffon taffeta had a skirt laid in shallow plaits all around and a very high pointed girdle. The blouse was of all-over lace dyed to a little lighter blue. This was overlaid with a lattice of taffeta strips, very narrow strins stitched fiat to the lace. The shoulders were trimmed with three-inch bands of tne sun, into whifh the lnttice strips ran. The dress was informal, but very pretty. A o-rent manv linen gowns are Deing marte with stimi boleros, or sleeveless jackets. In the latter case the collar of the jacket is like a cape and droops over the b!ouse sleeve. Some heavy linen shirtwaist suits are maae witn low round necks and short puffed sleeves to wear over a guimpe ana sleeves of thin linen, embroidered or bee trimmed. This IS a pretty lasn- ion also for pongee and foulard silks. Very -simple gowns or nanoKercmei linen verv fine and sheer, are em broidered freely on both skirt and waist. Such gowns are especially rec ommended for elderly w-omen. Five out of ten of the summer trowns alre.-idv seen are made with guimpes or chemisettes, and the shops are showing tempting little hand made mull and thin linen affairs, laced and embroidered. Ingenious fingers should be able to make very pretty guimpes at home especially if one be EVENING, MARCH 11, 1905. -N V ' 'i so cret of its ' power............

The new model linen shirtwaists are made with broad tucks running from shoulder to waist, sometimes with smaller tucks between. A very good model in a shop known for the per fection of. its waists has three tucks a full inch wide running the length of the 'waist, with groups of tiny tucks between, the latter stitched for a few inches only. The back of the waist shows a group of small tucks running aown the middle. An extremely attractive dress of natural colored linen was seen in a city shop. It had the usual plaited skirt and had a blouse with a deep round yoke, which was embroidered with sprays of white wheat. There was a great deal ot the embroidery, and the yoke was bordered at the col larless neck, and also where it joined the blouse, with a conventional de sign in white. A broad fold of the linen in the front of the gown was era broidered with wheat sprays, as were the full sleeves. The sleeves were gathered into a high cuff, fastened on the outside with white linen buttons and loops. The belt was embroidered in the conventional design used in the yoke border. Judging as nearly as one may from between season styles, the walking length skirt is an established institu tion for walking gowns. The ten dency to make all other gowns with long skirts is plain. Trains do not ap pear, but skirts lie well on the ground all around, except directly in front. The skirt five inches below the feet in front has happily disappeared. TJn doubtedly that skirt looked well in a nhotograDh. and when the wearer stood still. It was a torture to walk in. THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL. Few People Know How Useful It Is !u Preserving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that cbar- coal is the safest and most efficient dis infectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its vaiue when taken into the human system for the same cleans ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy tnat tne more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens tne breath after smoking, anji-king or alter eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and im proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs tne injurious gases wnicn collect in the stomach and bowels; It disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrn. All druggists sen cnarcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they nre composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet lorm or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use ot tnese lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complex ion, sweeter breatn ana purer blood, nnri the beauty of it is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use. but on the contrary, great bene fit. ' A Buffalo pnysician in speaKing or the benefits of charcoal, says: "I ad vise Stuart s tjnareoai j,ozenges to an patients suffering from gas in stomach snd bowels, and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box ot drusr stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I be lieve I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in vnv of the ordinary charcoal tablets." -N- tired fa soy nam Her-ean Tailored gowns for dressy wear are made with skirts that just escape the ground. This was demonstrated in a new redingote gown of dark blue Bur lingham silk trimmed in velvet of the same shade. The skirt of the red ingote was very full, and laid in in verted plaits all around. It was trim med at the foot with, a broad band of velvet, with two narrow bands of vel vet above. The waist was confined in a girdle of velvet sharply pointed at the xront, short on the hips and quite high, giving a short-waisted effect to the bodice. This was cut square in the neck, showing a guimpe of cream lace. Rows of velvet to match the skirt trimming appeared on the waist, and the same scheme was apparent on the cuffs of the elbow sleeve. The un der sleeve was formed of full ruffles of cream lace. The underskirt of the gown was plaited, and had no trim ming of any sort. The redingote falls quite to the ankles.leaving only a few inches of the underskirt showing. This length is much more graceful than the three quarters length coats so much worn. Still, short women should avoid wear ing even this style, as a divided line across the skirt invariably takes away from the apparent height. Long, un broken lines are indicated for the short woman. If broad hips be added to shortness of limb, even plaited skirts are barred, unless the tailor is a genius. Nothing is uglier than a stout woman in a full, plaited skirt Of course, dinner and evening gowns are made with long skirts.

"Perry asks the scrubwoman who cares for his studio how many children she has. 'It's sivin I have, sir." she answers. 'Four be the third wife of me'second husband, and three be the second wife of me first." " "What does it remind you of?" "Of a family I knew well here in Prov idence several years ago. They've moved away .since. A widower with two boys and a girl and a widow with two girls and a boy were married. This marrying and remarrying, along with the divorces, and results in some queer complications, and this didn't begin to be a mixed case as compared with hundreds that might be mentioned. But when it was necessary to distinguish Detween tne broods it was funny to hear the new wife refer to 'your children' and 'my children.' And later the situation so developed that when he returned home at night she used to ex plain tne day s doings in this fashion 'Your children went to school this morn ing, Arthur.

Many persons who wish to bestow charity have strange ways of carrying out their ideas. Some years ago an Knglishman named James Moss left $500 to be invested in land, the rent of which was to provide five gowns, ac cording to the will "of a sad blue color'' for as many aged and poor men living in the town. Some years ago a Frenchman named Bourne died and left to the poor of his town a few acres of no great value. For more than . two centuries the lands yielded only a few dollars a year. The nearest large town began to spread and soon took in these lands. The value in creased amazingly, so that today the revenue from them amounts to over $10,000 a year. From this sum 68 poor people draw pensions of $50 a year and 24 old men and women live rent free and enjoy an annual present of $.20 be sides. A similar charity, which has benefited many people, is that founded by Will iam France. At his death ho left lands valued at a few thousand dollars for Christmas gifts to his needy fellow townsmen. The revenue has now pass ed into hundreds, and the sum of $22. 500 is now distributed annually in the town. Of this sum $15,000 has been con tributed to a local technical school and an infirmary. One of the strangest of there charities provided a sum of mon ey with the direction that "on Sunday after divine service was performed there should be an annual ceremony of H , dim. is .Win moet heart, I - derschafft TJnd (Omit ( cmslasscn ,!!li(ft"!i'i.'!f,,!f!!'ii!!r!itiii(i;.i'ii!n,!U'!!!!!;n'(ti!i'ij In the long run, that it pays in more ways than one to let us do your transfer work.

Another beneficent act was by a man named Henry Greene, of London. He was an odd character, who lived in the eigh teenth century and had considerable money. He left a sum of money, the interest of which was to be spent an nually in providing "four old women with green waistcoats, to be laced with green ga'loon lace and to be delivered to the women on or before December 20, so that they may be worn on Christ mas day." William Robinson, one time sheriff of the town in which he lived, contrived to have his memory kept green at a much smaller cost than many men would pay for even a limited mortality. By his will he directed that every Christmas day 12 loaves of bread should be given to as many poor widows. But in order to qualify for the loaves the widows must present themselves at the testator's grave and receive their Christmas gifts over the bones of their benefactor.
