This attractive flying costume was designed by Miss Harriet
Quimby, the first woman aviator in America. And she has it on
herself In the picture. It consists of two garments, a blouse and
knickerbockers. The material used is a plum-covered satin-faced
cloth.
A monk hood is attached to the neat fitting blouse that is rut
with the long shoulders and closes under the arm.
The knickerbockers are provided with a row of buttons on either
of the inside seams, which when unfastened transforms the trouser
t'ttes into a short divided skirt.
When not in her machine Miss Quimby covers her costume with
a long coat. She says in reality there is no need of the short skirt
arrangement.

THK JiITTLN Ulltli WHO MAM HKK WORK PLAY
"Come here, Little Work, and play with me!" said Dottie Dump
ling. "Yes, mamma, I'll put the kettle on for you."
She ran to the gas range and tapped the pipe, saying, "Ho, ho,
Gas Geni, do you want to get out like the Geni in the jug which
the fisherman found?"
"Certain sure," said the Gas Geni, for the little girl answered
for him.
"All right. Crawl up close. Now, one, two, three, come!"
She turned the little screw-wheel and the Gas Genl leaped Into
the burner. "Hiss!" he said.
"Oh, will you though?" cried the little girl, and she shut off
the gas. "You see. you needn't hlsa at me, for I can put the cork
back into the bottle any time and cut you right In two. I shan't
allow you to get out all at once. If I did you would choke me and
I wouldn't even have the chance the Fisherman had of fooling you
back into the bottle again. Now, try again."
The little girl had the match ready this time and the Gas Oeni
leaped into a fine blaze and soon boiled the water and made the
breakfast for the little girl. "Good, old Gas Geni!"
Dish-washing after breakfast was a harder game, but by pre
tending that the dishes were houses, the knives and forks papas and
mammas, the spoons children, the waters from the faucets devastat-
ing water-spouts and the dish-pan a valley turning to a lake, she had
many an exciting adventure and performed many a thrilling rescue.
"Shall I sweep for you, mamma?" she asked. "I'll be the old
witch, only instead of riding my broom, I'll drive It. Or I'll be the
old woman up in a basket and the floor is the sky which I must
sweep the cob-webs off."
After she ceased being a witch, she became a great artist and
painted a picture on the piano front with a dust-cloth. She changed
the game for the chairs and furniture and pretended she was a
hostler c irrying and rubbing down the horses.
When she went to "do up" her room, she played her bed was a
garden and as she spread the sheets they were sheets of falling rain.
The blanket was a fertilizer carefully spread over the surface.
As Rhe tucked in the edges she pretended she was spading and culti
vating and as she patted and smoothed, that was planting the seeds.
Last of all was the flowered coverlet, and that, of course, was the
garden blooming Into life.
And then, at the end of the day she played she was a hop-toad
and hopped into the garden bed, burrowing down for a sleep to await
the coming of the morning spring.
She was a very happy little hop-toad Indeed, and not only that,
but she made everybody else happy.

THE TACOMA TIMES.

In my mall today in a pathetic letter from a four-months
bride. One would judge from It that in thin case marriage has cer
tainly been a failure. She tells me her husband left her penniless,
with only a few groceries, and tbo rent unpaid. She went homo.
He writes that he loves her and'wants to come back. Another
man, an old sweetheart, whom she says aim loves, offers to fur
nish money for her divorce. She asks me if 1 think her husband
loves her—if he would have left her If be had; If 1 think It right
for her to accept the money from her old sweetheart, and get the
divorce— us she an.l her husband were always quarreling when
together. This is a big question "May" has put me, and 1 cannot
take the responsibility of deciding positively one way or the other,
but I will tell "May" and others whnt 1 do think, and that Is this:
I would not decide hastily, either way, hut sleep, and think over
It, pro and cou, and 1 think If I felt I 'mild govern my own feel
ings sufficiently, I would give my husband, 'he man I thought 1
loved, and whom 1 solemnly promised to love, when 1 married him
four short months ago, one more clmnre. It is very easy to Im
agine ones self in love with one who sympathizes in trouble, and
whose faults (we all have them) have nut been revealed. Many a
married couple have taken years to Ret adjusted. Now, the
money question. Really, I would not like to accept money, as a
gift from any man. "May" has wanted to know what 1 think. 1
have given my view. 3ho must judge for herself.
1 have before me a letter from a young girl who works In a
dining-room. She writes she is madly In love with the dishwasher,
and wants advice. Her mother objects because she thinks they are
not of the same social standing, and tells her daughter that the
fact that he Is untidy about his work Ik a slim of bad breeding. The
girl goes on to say that the man does not Been) to return her affec
tions, and holds himself aloof, and asks what I think of her moth
er's and the man's actions. And do I think there Is really any so
cial difference between them.
The girl does not toll me she is neat, but I judge she Is, and
between an untidy, careless man and a neat girl there Is a vast dif
ference, whatever kind it may be (MUled. Oh, .Myrtle, und all oth
er girl reader*, don't fall "madly iv Imr." Or, if you do, don't
trust to thai kind of love. The man is prnhnhly older, or knows
more of the world, than you. Don't make yourself ridiculous by
making any advuncv*. Tell your mother, or me, but don't tell
others, (let modern books on love ami marriage, and learn what
they really are.
Dear Miss Grey:
I am 11 years old and married
to an actor. Now, Mlrs l!rey, the
leading lady in bin company is Rl
ways trying to make, trouble be
tween us. First, she told me my
husband tried to make love to her.
I would not believe her, so she.
told my husband 1 went out with
other men, but, Miss (Srey, I have
not, for 1 love my husband, and
even If I didn't I would not do
that, lie believes her. What shall
1 do? I am soon to be a mother,
and have no place to go, for my
parents are dead. W. 1\
A.—l will not waste foolish
sympathy on you in your trying
position. What you want is good,
solid advice. I can scarcely con
ceive of a woman acting as the
one you describe. Do you re
member In the play, "What Every
Woman Knows," when the hero
ino Is urged to leave her husband
who is infatuated (not in love)
with another woman she says:
"Would you have me desert him
now when he needs me most?" Do
you catch the moaning? She
knew her husband would get over
his infatuation, and would care
more for her than ever before If
she could be strong enough to
stand by him through it all. You
are soon to be a mother! The
most blessed privilege a woman
has. Think how the tiny baby
hands will touch the heart of Its
father. I know Just how hard
your position must be, but don't
you think you can rise above it
until your baby conies, and let
things shape themselves after
that? If you must leave, write
me with enclosed solf-addressed
and stamped envelope, and 1 will
tell you just the very best thing
for you to do, and where you can
go and be well cared for.
Do II.mI Women Do 1 hisV
Dear Miss Grey: Can you give
uji poor'women who work by the
day a remedy to administer to the
ladles who engage us to work,
and then when we have gone to
their house, after we have ridden
miles In the very early, cold
morning, and paid our carfare,
say: I am so sorry, so sorry,
but after I engaged you I found
another woman I could get 10 or
15 cents cheaper than you," or "I
thought I would not have the work
done this week"? MRS. —.
A.—Women who treat a work
ing woman as you describe are cer
tainly not evincing true womanli
ness. I find by Investigation that
there are several employment bu
reaus in town that, in a case like
that, strike such an employer off
their Hat. The rule of these bu
reaus is that a woman must got
25 cents an hour, her carfara
and a good meal at noon, and th«
empoymont agency gets 15 cents
of this day's wage. Wouldn't it
be better to work through such an
agency. Why don't women or
ganize? Cannot they realize there
Is power In numbers?
Peeling the Face
Women are beginning to realize
how dangerous and how unneces
sary is the painful and expensive
surgical operation known as
"face-peeling". Many clever bocl
ety women noted for their exquis
ite beauty, accomplish the desired
result themselves at home, with
perfect safety and no pain, ex
pensa or detention indoors. They
simply use ordinary m«rcolized
wax, which can be obtained at al
most any drug store. It is applied
at night like Bold cream and
washed off in the morning. The
mercolized wax slowly absorbs the
half-dead outer skin, causing It to
fl«ke off day by day in fine, almost
Imperceptible particles like flour.
The fresh, vigorous young skin un
derneath soon shows forth, bloom-
Ing radiantly with health and
beauty. The face begins to look
years younger, though the use of
the process absolutely defies de
tection by the closest observer.
Naturally this process also re
moves all such minor facial blem
ishes as freckles, tan, moth
patches, liver spots, flue wrinkles,
pimples, etc. Advu

A woman, who formerly lived
on a western ranch whore pump
kins whiu unknown, tells how she
met the emergency when her
eastern-born husband sighed for
a pumpkin pie.
"I took a plain Irish potato,"
she says, "and boiled and mashed
It, added a heaping teaspoonful of
butter, same of flour, one egg,
one-half cupful of niolaijses, one
half cupful of sugar, and one
cupful of milk. Flavored it with
cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla,
and baked in one crust. Result:
A pie of which my good man ate
two pieces."

The great«ft American naval fleet is gath
ered in the Hudson river for the most spect
acular naval review ever held. Wonderful,
indeed, is this collection of Uncle Sam's
defenders.
This unusual ovent reminds us . of the
wonderful record of the AUTOPIANO on
board these war vessels.
The
Autopiano
lias easily earned the right to he called the
choice of the U. S. navy. Over titty of these
famous player pianos are now doing splen
did service on board as many naval vessels.
No test of a player piano can be more severe
than their use on board a warship, where
they are subjected to indiscriminate use,
vibration and severe climatic changes at all
times.
THE AUTOPIANO
—successful in withstanding these condi
tions—hi indeed a quality instrument, and
durable beyond question.
THE AUTOPIANO
great popularity in the navy proves that life
on shipboard is immeasurably more enter
taining because of The Autopiano.
THE AUTOPIANO
—through its power to make instantly avail
able to you all the joys of playing any music
you can wish for, would likewise bring im
measurable entertainment to your home.
THE AUTOPIANO
—the Player Piano that is the unrivaled
choice of the U. S. —has everything in
its favor—even the price.

demonstrations all this week. No obligation
