ill— wrfw ~fc ^$&$!!S^ MISS GRATIA WOODS IDE. A *rt«Jkt Teoclairrcr Wko Is Wt»- aims r u m * • JUsso»uriL Hiss Gratia Evelyn Woodside, daugh- ter of Judge Leigh B. Woodside of the Nineteenth Judicial circuit of Missouri, I* apt only one of the few -women prac- titioners at the j&fissouri bar, bat prob- ably the youngest lawyer in the state. She was admitted to practice immedi- ately on her becoming of age. Born of many generations of lawyers, Miss Woodaide at as early age devel- oped a strong inclination for that pro- fession. When a child of eleven she persuaded her father to accept her aa a clerk In his office at Salem, and there KXBB OBATIA SVELTH WOODSTDE. during her vacation months she work- ed assiduously at her father's corre- spondence, taking the place of an ex- perienced and well qualified clerk. Her father's clients wondered at the girl's precocity, and when nt times she answered questions In her father's ab- sence people were In a quandary to know who the child could be. Thus Miss Woodside from the begin- ning becouip absorbed In the law. She finished her public school educa- tion at Salem, went to the Central Fe- male college at Liexlnjrton, udvaneed to the State university at Columbia and was graduated from the law depart- ment before many girls had thought of anything serious in life. After graduation she was admitted to the bar at Jefferson City and began the practice of her profession in her fa- ther's office at Salem. Later Bbe moved to St. Louis and begun work on her own account. Her specialty Is real es- tate cases, and Miss Woodside prefers court work. In which she is remarka- bly successful, to mere consultation cases.—St Louis Republic, About Clothes. The ladles of the New York Society For Political Study discussed the ques- tion the other day whether it Is dress or brains that counted most in women's clubs. One lady declared it was brains; an- other took the Fabian line of argument and said, "Nobody thinks the more of you for being shabby." Still others thought that, while Intelligence was the most Important, "we can't make guys of ourselves.'' After adjournment, when they ail talked at once, it was decided that, "other things being equal, the woman with the prettiest hat will get there first." The informal conclusion Is unques- tionably correct Brains count most But one of the uses of brains (not the least important) is to construct tasteful and becoming dress. No woman has brains enough to sup- ply the lack of becoming dress, and no woman of the least intelligence will neglect to dress as tastefully as she can. Shabbiness is not a virtue. It Is a disability which brains may over- come, but it la a disability which ought to be avoided. No sensible wo- man will handicap herself. Take a Hint From the Actress. An actress never thinks of washing her face after a performance is over, but Instead she smears it over plenti- fully with eold cream or some similar preparation sold for removing the "makeup," which she wipes off with a soft towel. This treatment Is not only efficacious in removing every particle of rouge, dust, etc., but It protects the skin when the theater Is left no mat- ter how icy cold a wind may be rag- ing outside. Before going to bed the actress washes her face first in hot water and then in cold, the cold being a sort of tonic to the skin, which with-. out It would be apt to wrinkle. After tier ablutions are finished she often applies a little cold cream or some- thing of that nature to her face. Some actresses prefer a powder rag of flan- nel te a puff or chamois skin. The flannel is pleasant to use and never streaks the face as chamois skin Is apt to do. A yard of flannel will make over a dozen of these rags, and they are both cheaper and cleaner to use than other things employed for the same purpose. . Wedding; Anniversaries. At the end of the first year comes the cotton wedding. At two years comes the paper; at three the leather. At the close of five comes the wooden. At the seventh anniversary the friends assemble at the woolen. At ten comes the tin; at twelve years the silken and fine linen; at fifteen the crystal wed- ding.

The ironing table should be of such a height that the lroner need not stoop while at work. The wooden top should ; the flesh to swell, and in a very short be free from knots and any tendency to. tune a pair of ugly, thick lips is the re- PHUis, Ptmchin* a»a BltUs Tk«m Win Sttxely Deform Them, To be realty pretty the lips should be rather full, but without the least suspicion of thickness. Their color, too, should be of bright red, not only for appearance's sake, but also as de- noting a healthy body. Thin, color- less lips betray poverty of the blood, while very tbin^ lips, however bright their color, show an irritable, fretty disposition. So many girls when reading pull and pinch their lips. This bad habit causes warp. The alee must be determined by the space at command lu laundry or kitchen. Special tables which, when not needed for work, cau t>e transform- ed into benches are to ho bad a t house furnishing shops, hut they are expen alve. Besides the adjustable top, they contain drawers for Irons and cover- ings. Are Women Too Active t The women of this generation ore undoubtedly suffering from too much occupation. The listless, bored, dis- contented, unsettled girl of twenty years ago has given place to tbe rest- less, energetic and positively de-sperate business woman thirsting for fresh outlets for enterprise. We are caught up in the whirlwind of modern unrest, and we Imagine wo are happy because we have no time to think anytblng to the contrary.—London Ladies' Field. Increased AUomua.ee Far D»M, Dress, says a London ladies' journal, like everything else in these days, has completely altered a n d t b e standard of dress likewise. What was consid- ered suitable and becoming twenty years ago would be obsolete and Im- possible today. Thirty years ago $500 or $600 a year was a good allowance for a married woman who went much Into society. Nowadays it would hard- ly pay for her petticoats, gloves, shoes and boots. 8oui>. Soup to be satisfactory must be well flavored and not watery looking. Ex- cess In the quantity of flavors must be guarded against There must be a careful blending of material, with Just enough salt to taste. Loft overs of can- ned or fresh vegetables combined .with good stock or beef extract make good soup. If beef extract la used, one tea- Bpoonful to a quart of water is suffi- cient. suit Unfortunately this unbecoming blemish is not easy to cure. The prac- tice of touching the lips must first be abandoned and the lips gently rubbed with cold cream two or three tunes a day. The girl who unconsciously plays with her lips will do well to wear a pair of woolly gloves when reading or studying. She should also get those around her to correct her directly they notice her hand raised to her face. Biting the lips Is another habit which also thickens them besides denoting a bad temper. The best cure for this is to keep a white bone penholder in the mouth in moments of leisure, and this will prevent the teeth closing on the lips. THE NURSERY.

Good literature that is interesting and adapted to the small minds should be plentifully supplied for the children. Almost every child has some ear for music, and it will improve If it Is en- couraged, so teach it some simple little songs to sing about the house. Remember that milk is sufficient nourishment for a child until it reach- es the age of a year, and do not be tempted to give him "Just a taste" of table food. A trained nurse suggests substitut- ing for the familiar powder puff used after the baby's bath a piece of ab- sorbent cotton. Discard for a fresh piece as often as required. Do not let a little child be frightened under any circumstances, and do not disappoint It if you can possibly avoid it The griefs of childhood are very bitter, sometimes laying the founda- tion for ill health in after years.

To Sulk* Ckoeolate* The daughter of a certain New York household Is the chocolate maker of the family, and the drink as she serves it is especially delicious. Her secret which alio willingly gives away, ilea, she says, solely in the fact that the drink is made hours before It 1* served. Plain unsweetened chocolate is used, a half pound cake for ten" cups. Tbe chocolate is broken into pieces, put in an earthenware vessel and slowly dis- solved hi warm water whose heat Is gradually increased till the boiling point is reached, and it is allowed to boll for fifteen minutes. The porcelain or earthenware vessel in which it Is cooked is then closely covered and left to stand on some warm but not hot part of the range for several hours.. Just before it Is to be served boiling milk la added and the mixture brought to a quick boll. By this process the chocolate Is thoroughly blended, and that smooth; rich flavor from which all raw taste Is taken is produced,—Har- per's Bazar.'

To S u l k * C k o e o l a t e * The daughter of a certain New York
household Is the chocolate maker of the family, and the drink as she serves it is especially delicious. Her secret which alio willingly gives away, ilea, she says, solely in the fact that the drink is made hours before It 1* served. Plain unsweetened chocolate is used, a half pound cake for ten" cups. Tbe chocolate is broken into pieces, put in an earthenware vessel and slowly dissolved hi warm water whose heat Is gradually increased till the boiling point is reached, and it is allowed to boll for fifteen minutes. The porcelain or earthenware vessel in which it Is cooked is then closely covered and left to stand on some warm but not hot part of the range for several hours.. Just before it Is to be served boiling milk la added and the mixture brought to a quick boll. By this process the chocolate Is thoroughly blended, and that smooth; rich flavor from which all raw taste Is taken is produced,—Harper's Bazar.'
