If you want a plain bag for every- day use, or a bag for dress-up or party occasions, you won't have a bit of trouble this you. There is no end to the variety of the new bags. There are sturdy, good-looking one: made of tooled leather. The newest shape is the box, and many of them are fitted, sometimes with just a purse and a mirror, and then again with a little set of manicure articles. that, no matter how good the soap may be for household use, it's far too strong for your skin. _ - Here's just a little suggestion, but? . _ _ _ very worth-while carrying out: Be-i ' 081I10] fore you start to do any kind of work," such as sweeping, working about the stove, or cleaning, drag your nails _ over a cake of soap.

The smart idea is to have the duvetyn bag match the color of your top coat or your suit. And there are bags entirely of wooden beads, in such color combinations as deep blue and orange. red and cream-white, dark gray and lavender. and other bags of beads that are very flat and shiny, and are woven in brocade designs. At a distance these very new'beaded bags give the appearance of metal brocade. Bags ’of Bohemian straw are new. The straw is dyed in won- derful colors, and then woven to form the bags, which come in the regula- tion shapes. Bags that fool you are new too. They look like little Dutch silver powder boxes when you see them lying on the counter. But there's a little handle in the middle of the box, and when you discover that and pick the box up. you find it is merely a deep top to a silk or vel- vet bag. The feather bags are just over from Paris. Don't imitate in dress. However bad you mar look, you will look worse if you try to look like someone else. Some Timely Warnings. Don't be masculine in your dress. A hen, you know, can't crow very well. Don't, if you are short, wear a too- high hat to give you height."" You will hmk Just as short, and out of proportion too. Don't, if you are tall and thin, wear a very short skirt. You will look as if you were on stilts if you do. bon't, if you are fat, talk rapidly and incessantly. It will make you look puffy too. _ _ bun't, it you are young and pretty, use paint and powder. You only mar the picture instead of heightening ft. Widows who are looking for second husbands fasten their hair at the back ot the head by means, of tortoineshell pins, and widows who are determined to rennin faithful to their departed spouses cut thier hair short. . Don't. if you are old, wear a broad velvet band about your neck. Though it may hold up your flabby throat, it gives you a strangled look. Din't, it you are poor, wear a lot of cheap Jewelry. What hasn't any value ean't add value. . _ . - . I That afternoon her mother had they will look igone to Wexford to spend the right _ -t------- -- lwlith aisick if“?

On the long pike there was but one .house; a house of some importance in spite of its tininess, for no one could pass it without paying toll to pretty Celia. Not that Celia exacted the tribute for personal "reasons, though it was worth a small sum to meet so sunny a face on that Icnbly road. She and her mother were the azénts, vice Mr. Thorn deceased. of the corporation that controlled the pike.

I But with the coming of the " pipes a small cloud sailed into her horizon. She and her mother were poor, and fuel was so expensive in that tree- less, coalless region. If only they could afford to have the gas put in, the subsequent saving would be con- siderable. It was hard that it should be gm near and yet unattainable. "Horrid things!" said Celia, refer- ring to the pipes. "Everybody else has to pay to pass this gate, but you go crawling by seot-free. Don't you think they ought to pay toll in gas, mother?"

She had dreamed that an army of fat prairie rata had started to gnaw their 'way into the house. Celia was thoroughly feminine in her opinion of rats, and the dream had been very vivid and horrible.

"Why, Celia, girl, what's, this?" ' "The toil money," said poor Celia, taking the question literally, and then the courageous little spirit weakened, and she faintedu f. = . The answer lo the question is, ot course, that both theories are right. A certain kind ot Jace, the so-cailed t;cientitie face, ts so often seen among medical students' as to prove that the owner of that cast of countenance is likely to adopt, medicine as a career. Conversely, whatever the original cast ot future: a medical men may have posiessed, the amnion, delicate and absorbing work ttftetiietp ‘practice will put a stamp upon them. It is thought that the fame ot these medical men as rough and ready de, tectives has been largely manufactur- ed tor them by enthusiastic friends. But'that many medical men do pee. sass great insight into the occupations of those that come before them is true. The question is often debated whether physlognomy is a growth ot vocation or whether it shows that the vocation chosen is in acqordance with the par- ticular capacity and ability ot the per- son to whom it belongs. In other words. it the lawyer does not show the yletral face," the aspiring minister the “ecclesiastical face," the medical student the J'phrsieianly face," the soldier the "military face,” and so on, the question arises, Is that a sign that they have mistaken their calling? Is the man who doesn't look a bit like a doctor" likely to fail because his phytriogttotttie tyialitietttion is wahtlnx? Or will he, whatever his original tea. tures, gradually come to acquire the type ot the profession to which he belongs', This is no new discovery. The " bagoans know all atou' it.
