Being. , Success! a! Wife Beauty
Soon Falls Conversation
Grows Tiresome, ,
In.chosinsr a wife the average man
liaa no rule for selection.
After perhaps a year or two . ha will
.K&y to himself it not - to anyone else.
;thatvh would have" been happier, had
-"he chosen "a wife as he would, have
' chosen & man. friend, with whom he
rwas to be associated in close 'compan
ionship. ; The very pretty woman will appeal
to the e.ey -'She. is a pleasing: plc
Tture, but unless there is more to her
than beautiful hair, alluring: eyes, and
peach tike complexion, she will not
be able to hold her husband's aff ec
jtion as will the woman who is his
, pT'. In' every sense of the word.
Of course a man doeanot want to
fcave his wife become dowdy simply
becaturo "her" fortune Is" made" 'by se
'urm a husband. On the other hand
-& man will very soon tire of the wd
Hm&s who. apparently thinks more. of a
becoming' bow in " her hair than the
well browned side of his dinnerchop.
I The really successful 'wife is th one
s who can combine housewifely traits
with, a modicum , of feminine vanity,
.The latter, in sufficient quantity to
forbid her appearing- at the breakfast
liable in . a .loose untidy ' wrapper and
with & slovenly coiffure. ',
Then also the -reallv successful wife
knows when to be still as well as
i
i'when -to talk. As man perhaps will
be attracted by a brilliant conversa
tionalist whose talk will be as tire
'tome after marriage a it was pleas
Sing before, unless these conversational
tetunts- are' adapted to his varying
'moods. It is a wise woman , who
'knows when "to keep still, and in this
way ah- can- be more infinitely her
: husband's , chum than if she insists
(upon chattering1 when he wants to be
IquleL
To revert to the first statement; the
; wife who is most esteemed is the one
'wlio conforms to her husband's moods.
The "real -chum, whether masculine
ir feminine, is the person who can
krenfonn to moods, grave or gay. One
'dees not have to be very smart to
rwin-out successfully in the matrimon
ii a.1 game. " Tact is the watchword.
This means " very largely that - hus

St hough it may come hard it is not
fcalf as bad as the rows and rumpuses
that ensue when ' a woman' is deter

; The, -two-.-.bear of matrimony bear

UVTWELTE YEAR-OLD ; V
' GIRL WHO is famous . -i

According to . the current Issue . of

FANCY CLOTHES AMONG
: HIGH SCHOOJj GIRLS.
In the August Woman's Home Com
panion appears a letter : about te ex
travagance of the graduating exercis
es of some of our -schools, togethes
with comments, on the. dress of young
girls. Following is an-extract:
"I live in a town in Califarnia of
about ten thousand inhabitants. There
are: many well-to-do people, . but few
wealthy ones.- As my home' is near the
high school, I have, an opportunity of
seeing many or tne stuaents" passing
on their way to and from their studies.
The thng that most impresses me , is
the way the girls dress. What re
their mothers thinking of. to let young
girls appear on - the streets in. gowns
that a self-respecting actress- would
not wear outside of the theater?
"One of the best dreeeed girls in the
high school is, the daughter of a woman
wno wasnes ciotnes for' a living. This
girl parades the streets decked out in
all the latest fashions, while her moth
er literally goes in rags. Think of it
and what it means! The girl is not to
blame, it is the mother, who has sac
rificed her every comfort and is act
ually wearing he? life out that her
daughter may go with a certain snob
bish set. The mother does not know
that she t is throwing her daughter , in
to every temptation, in spite of the
fact that- she is absolutely untrained
to resist temptation when it comes."
BOILING DELICATE CHINA
iClany housekeepers may be ' bewail
ing 'the nicks and cracks in- their
beautiful china, as I did mine,- until
a , suggestion from 'the wise Sing Toy
saved the remainder of my vanish
ing treasures. - .
One day when I - was stoutly resist
ing the appeal of an exquisite bit of
a cup on ; the ground that anything
so delicate V would crack easily when
hot tea or chocolate ' was . poued into
it. Sing explained the method of the
Chinese, ending with, - "Tooi muchee
quick, no good.' Since theii I have
followed his direction, which was:
Before using a delicate piece of china
the first time, put it into a pan of
cold water, and let it 'come, gradual
ly to a-boil. This tempers the china
and it resists the sudden . expansion
thereafter. I do not mean that a
cup should be boiled every time It is
used; only when -purchased, and grad
ually. Too muchee quick, no good."

STYLES FOR THE FALL

The fall season is opening up. with
a large showing and charming showing
of charmeuse dresses.' Combines with
chiffon or fancy brocades, this ma
terial is used for evening gowns. Both
simple and .elaborate afternoon dress
es are fashioned ' from the various
qualities of charmeuse,. and I simple
street dresses are shown in profusion
made from the heavier qualities which
will give good service. . t ,
The petticoat styles for fall have
not materially changed, the gored cut
with fiat back and scant . flounce
trimming . being most in favor. Some
of the newest models have deep scal

For This Hair Ornament Just
Now So Often Seen.
In the realm of brooches the bar pin
reigns ; supreme. The.' round, high
brooch of former times is superseded
by the long, . straight pin that forms a
bar of shining metal or gleaming gems,
Principal among these retgnlng fa
vorites are the bars formed of a row
of tiny pearls, or of brilliants set in
costly, platinum. ' Their Severe sim
plicity, gives to them distinctive dig
nity, which adds piquancy and style
to trie costume. -
More elaborate bar pins have rows
of t alternate diamonds and sapphires,
emeralds or rubies ; or pearls are com
bined with the colored stones.

LARGE PRODUCTION OF
' . - MINERAL WATER.'
Nearly 70,000,000 Gallons Sold In the
.United States In 1911, Valuer :
at $$7,875,78' ' :, ;,;
Jn 1911 67,527,822 -gallons of min
eral , waters were sold in the United
States, valued at $7,876,373. Of "this
large amount 63,923,119 gallons, val
ued at 16,837,885, were-of domestic
production, and 3,604,703 -gallons,
valued at $1,037,485, were imported.
The average price of the domestic wa
ter at the springs was. 10.7 cents a
gallon and that of the imported wa
ter 'was 20.8 conts a gallon, to which
must be addedor the imported wa
ter, -freight, commissions, and import
duty. ' ; v
The domestic production1' in 1911
compared with that in 1910 showed
an increase of 1,892,994 gallons nd
$480,2998 in value.' - The product in
1911 was derived from 732 springs.
New York Sta-te led in the quantity
of water sold, with 10,245,261 gallons
bringing an average price of 9 cents
a gallon, or a total value of $939,003;
but Wisconsin, with an output of 5,
716,162 gallons, produced tthe great
est value, namely $955,988, or an av
erage of 17. cents a gallon. ,
r The highest average price received
in any State was in Indiana 60 cents
a gallon the produuetion being 1,
084,428 gallons. The high price was
due to the medicinal reputation of the
waters. Maine received an average
of 34 cents a gallon and produced 1, -254,783
gallons. The lowest average
prices received werer in Minnesota
and Oklahoma- 3 cents a gallon the
production of Minnesota , being 8,703,

VANISHING - BUFFALO ROBES;
The- buffalo robe, which a genera
tion ago was to be found in nearly
every farm house, is passing away to
recur on earth no more. The buffalo
robe was an institution. 'Oh a win
ter's day, when father hitched -up t6
the old sled to drive to town for the
weekly mail and. provisions,, he led
the big flatfboted team. of bays out of
the, barnyard-crunching through the
snow up to the kitchen door. Mother
came out with the letters to be mailed,-
the kerosene, can to be filled, the
buggy whip, , which was kept in the
shed kitchen and - the buffalo robe.
The boys 1 wrapped themselves to the
chin iti . the pliant hide' of the buffalo,-
and they were off to town, the
flying spray of snow lodging In the
woolly hair 1 of the. robe.
1 There wag woven laprobe also,
and it . had a-picture of a lion on it.
The v younger boy thought that this
robe was a lion skin, and he wonder
ed why the. buffalo robe didn't have
a picture of a buffalo on it, photo
graphed by the alchemy of nature.
v There was a time when Kansas fur

Indians, who tanned them without
the use of chemicals. When the
white man saw; the market growing,
he went into the buffalo robe business
wholesale. Men were hired to shoot
the animals by the thousands and the
hidea were tanned by a patent pro
cess. :J ; . . .,- ,.
"These robes did not last as long as
the ones the Indians tanned by- rub
bing with a smooth stick. It is said
the robes now in service were tanned
by the Indians many years before the
white man began to tan them. V

hundreds of . literary highwaymen
have quoted this precedent as excuse
for their thefts. If additional Justi
fication is needed, they find it in these
lines:

; Plagiarism to use a mild term for
outright stealing has been common
since men first . began to write. Not
long ago a well-to-do and eminently
respectable citizen of Virginia . was
convicted of having victimized a
number of magazines by selling, as.
his own short stories that had pre
viously been published in other pe
riodicals. . He did not even take the
trouble to change the names of the
characters in the tales he copied. One
of his feats was to sell to. a New
York magazine one of Se well Ford's
"Shorty McCabe" stories. Word for
word it was exactly like the. orignal
which had appeared in another pub
lication only a year or two before,
yet 1 the innocent New York editor
bought and published it. .
Although international copyright
laws now serve to protect authors in
their rights; many rauth6rs" still car
ry on a flourishing trade Jn transla
tions, which 'they dispose of as -original.
, Thomas Guthrie, the English
novelist whose ; works are published
under the pen name of F. Anstey, had
an experience of. this kind with his
Black Poodle:" - Mr. Guthrie who
was born - fifty-six years ago to-day,
Aug. S, 1856, at Kensington was vis'
iting Paris when he observed in a
book shop a little volume entitled "Le
Caniche Noir," which is French for
"Black Poodle." Upon examination
he found that the French author had
made a,-very good translation of his
own nttie .tale, and had foisted it .on
Jihe" French pblio as an original
work. . When he returned to London,
Mr. Guthrie wrote the "author" of
"Le Caniche Noir,", saying that he
highly appreciated the story and
would like to translate it into English
The "Frenchman replied that he was
his own translator and that the book
"exists in English already." Which
Mr. Guthrie, was compelled to admit
was the truth.
Most distinguished authors have
been accused of plagiarism. Mark
Twain was accused of having based
his- "Tom Sawyer,. Detective," on a
German novel bearing the title of
"The Vicar of Welby." Portions of
Meredith's "Lucile" follow closely the
"Lucretia" of George Sand. Gogol,
the great Russian novelist, first be
came known to the English reading
public although; Unwittingly through
a' novel entitled "Home Life in Rus
sia," and bearing the name of an
Englishman as its author. It was
not until years later, when the Eng
lishman had derived a large profit in
royalties, that it was discovered that
the book was in reality a translation
of Gogol's "Dead Souls." Thomas
Hardy once sued Pinero for plagiar
ism, and although he lost the suit, the
