Some times il is all sunshine and gladness, and Heaven itself lies not far off; and then it suddenly changes and is dark and sorrowful, and the clouds shut out the entire day. In the lives of the saddest of us there are bright days like this, when we feel as if we could take the whole world into our arms. Then come gloom v hours, when the fire will not burn on our hearths, and all without and within is dismal, cold, dark. Believe' me, cverr head, has its secret sor rows, which, the world knows not. and oft-times we call a man cold when he is only sad. II. W. Long fellow. Tin; Rucoro, 50c. a year.

Do you know why it is that fash fashionable - ionable fashionable woman lpoks as young and rosy at 50 as the unfashionable wo woman - man woman at 30? It is because she takes care of herself. The unfashionable woman gets her beauty sleep every night and never dissipates in the matter of balls and little suppers prepared over the. blazer while the rest of the world is aslscp. She eats her three meals a day anil at just the propen hours. Everything on her table is wholesome and intended to keep her skin rosy and her little body lissome. She thinks it almost immoral to clog the pores of the skin with powder and pomade, and she belives in nature absolutely. And just there is the difference. The fashionable woman or woman of the world, if you choose, for the fashionable woman is hardly a broad enough term for the woman that is always young at 50 believes in art. She knows that nature is a wonder wonderful - ful wonderful restorative, but she has infinitely more faith in art and science.
