FEMININE PHILOSOPHY.
It Isn't woman's righto that aone
women are constantly clamoring tor;
It’s all the righto.
A girl's Idea of “getting even” with
her best girl friend to to do tbe same
foolish things that she does.
The woman who "Just dearly love”
grey hai r are the ones who spend their
•pare change tor Meek-hair'dyes.
Somehow or other, the eight of a
‘‘builness woman" at a piano makes a
person sympathize with the Instru
ment.
FEMININE PHILOSOPHY.
The bachelor maid seldom boasts
that she Is self-made.
Many n true reform Is started In
a club—or awitch.
By saving her old clothes any worn
an can be to atyle once In a lifetime.
Mott new wrinkles are caused by
worrying over those we already have.
Hereafter Nicholas Longworth will
be known as Alice Roosevelt’* hus
band.
Photographers are the only persona
who take women at their face value.
8ome girls wash their hair very
regularly but overlook tbelr necks and
ears.
Every woman Ukes to be Just a tew
years younger than the other women
of her age.
Every man has a right to hts own
opinion until hs gets married or telto
hla wife about It
Oniy tbe woman wbo hasn't new
furs to wear thoroughly despises wint
er westher.
Even the woman who baa perfect
feet worries all the time for fear no
body will see them.
Show a girl seveoty-one new styles
of shirtwaists and she will want
something different
You can always tell the state of
a man’s health by the kind of pies
that his wife bakes.
The joke that the average woman
can tee the qnlckest is the one that
Isn't a Joke at all.
You cannot glorify God by despis
ing His world.
