MISS MANA ZUOCA, THE OIRL WITH THE. MIDNIGHT EYES.
By JANE M'JLEAN.
"I suppose I have somewhat of a repu
tation for my eyes," says Miss Mana
Zucca, the star who played In "Hlgli
Jinks." "but I assure you any girl may
beautify her eyes to a remarkablo extent
if she has time and patience.
"My eyes are called. 'the mldnlg-ht eyes,'
because of their depth rather than . be
cause of their color, although they are
dark enough In color, too. The color of
the eye makes little difference, anyway;
it Is the setting, the markings and the
expression of the eye that count in the
long run.
"You. may ask any girl in the world
what feature she prefers to be absolutely
beautiful, and she will Invariably reply,
'Rive me beautiful eyes.' Well, girls. If
you would have beautiful eyes follow
carefully the following instructions and
you will have very little trouble. Be sure,
first, that your eyes have a proper set
ting for beauty. If you do not rest prop
erly the eyes frequently have dark cir
cles beneath them, which is very unbe
coming and gives the face a haggaxd ex
pression. - ' '
"Never strain the eyes by exposing
them to strong light; they are apt to be
come easily Inflamed and look very ugly
Tou glrla who' find tears coming to the
eyes when you . luugh heartily, repolce
rather than fool embarrassed at such an
occurrence, because It is a' splendid tliliui
for the eyes,
"Above all, cultivate eye expression
No matter whether you have eyes of ap.
parently no color at all or of a color very
lspleaalng to you, you can make them
beautiful enough to satisfy tho most fas
tidious If you will practice eye expression.
Tour eyes are docldedly tho most mag
netic part of your face, and It is gener
ally through their expression that- you
cultivate personal magnetism. Then
nractlce talking with your eyes; make
thera respond to your different moods
force them to show or hide your feelings
at will.- and you will have mysterious
eyes, the most attractive eyes of all.
"Look at the world normally as you
expect It to respond to you. Be beautl
fully natural with your eyes as well as
with every other feature you possess, and
you will find that after a whUe it will
not be necessary for you to cultivate
beauty of any kind. It will all be com
ing your way without any effort at au
on your part, and you will have the most
beautiful as well as the most compel)'
lngly speaking eyes in the world."
prevailed at that-early time In tho Indian
peninsula.
A "tope" Is a form of Buddhist monu
ment founa in various ' plsrss In India
and southeastern Asia, and it had two
distinct purposes. The first was to serve
as a place of safe deposit for sacred
relics, and the second to- comnmorate
some Important ' event.
In the former case, the "tope-' was
called a "dagnba," and In the latter cam
a "stupa." But whatever -the purpose
of the tope Its external form. was always
that of a circular dome, surmounting a
broader base, which may be either cylin
drical, square, or many-sided. Some
times , these bases rise In successively
nsrrowing terraces, wllh the dome.' or
"tee," In the center of the top, where
relics' were deposited. '
There was a curious mingling at Taxila
of CI reek and Indian art Ideas, and -this

"A His School Affair'
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a girl In the
middle of my teens and in the midst of
what is Kern; rally spoken of as a nigh
school affair." .
I know it Is silly for men to think of
love yet, but the more I try to forget and
Met over It the worse it sems to become.
Can von sufigest any way wlflch might
help matters? Do you think things would
be better If 1 would simply lot Ittvm take
. their course Instead of trying to prevent
them? The boy la all that can be de
sired in every possible way. and I- be
lieve he thinks more of me than I do of
him; but I cannot bear the Idea of liking
any one as well as I do him at my ere
and in my position, for I have work
planned out for myself for years ahead.
M. it
Really, my dear girl, you seem, so sen
sible and logical that I feel sure - you
caa manage your affair very well. You
surely realise that you are years too
young for marriage and that you have
much to accomplish before you are ready
for a serious love affair. Suppose you
simpiy try not to think about this at all
and just force yourself to keep your mind
on your work and your ambitions. ' I have
faith in tbe ultimata common . sense of
the girl who wrote your analytical letter.
IltrrrHlH.
Pear Mies Fairfax: ' This summer, while
visiting a girl friend, I met. through her
fiance, a young man tl years of age, four
years niy eenkir.
During my visit we enjoyed many
pleasure excursions, and in this way be-
ame well acquainted. Just before , re
turning to my home Mr. ft. declared his
love. 1 refused him an answer then, al
though I knew l cared for him more
than as a friend, lie is a college grad
uate, also a graduate of a mimical con
servatory. Whim I nave merely a gram

inieresled in his ambitions. Now 1 am
wondering if he would ia Urns become

Toung women who may be unable to
devote two or three years to a course of
study which will fit them to become
trained nurses are seeking -to obtain the
necessary instruction which fits them to
bo trained attendants. This enables them
to find positions whero they may take
care of Invalids or convalescents.
In many families there Is a need, at
one time or another, of the aid of a
trained attendant, where the servloes of a
trained nurse are not required. The com
pensation Is, of course, more moderate
than for a trained nurse, but an attendant
has neither the experience, the skill nor
the responsibilities which are part of a
trained nurse's life.
Opportunities for gaining instruction as
a trained attendant are to be found in
classes organised In our large cities. The
course of study is for a term of two
months, and Includes lectures and class
work. Students are required to have refer,
encea of high moral character and to be
not less than 20 years of age.
A girl Is not to imagine that Instructors
or training can make a good attendant of
one who has not the qualifications. Among
the requisites are strength, good health,
good manners and a reasonably good edu
cation. To these must be added kindness,
patience, tact, cheerfulness, neatnesa, self
control, quickness of comprehension, and
a natural aptitude for nursing. Every girl
or young woman who enters this work
needs some of the same qualities as one
does who enters a training-school for
nurses. In fact, it may be the beginning
for a girt of a larger field of service She
may discover it in her true vocation and
determine to follow the profession.
Students are required to devote their
emergency, quiet In manner, self-reliant
and companionable.--
. Young, women who aru-adapted to this
occupation seenr to have no difficulty In
getting work.' Very. often the demand for
good attendants exceeds the' supply.
Although the course of study Includes
classes in cooking for Invalids, . this branch
Is not compulsory, out It is advocated
for all who wish to become proficient in
their- work. In 'these classes may be
learned the care and sterilization of milk.
preparation of beef essence, the making
of soups and "delicacies. -
You are clever and ambitious, and I am
sure you can read and study enough to
keeD yourself so well equipped mentally
that your admirer will neither have to be entire time to the course of practical ln-
ashamed of you, nor inclined to tire of
you.
Doa't Be Billy.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a high school
student and am In love with "tt college
graduate. He greets me, but does not
know I love him. Khouid I press my at
tentions or try to give him up?
ONE IN LOVE.
For a girl to talk of "pressing her at
tentions" upon a man who does not care
for her Is sad and absurd at once. You
will only make a fool of yourself, my
dear girl, if you give your love unsought
and a ' little high school student must
think of .winning promotion In her studies
Instead -of hearts.
Aa Oatraaeoas Marriage.
Dear Miss Fairfax: I am a girl of Is
and going to high school. I made the ac
quaintance of au eldwly gentleman about
tiO who has a daughter mu'h older than
myself and no wire. lie likes me very
much sn-1 has asked me to marry him.
I like him, too, and. aa he is very
wealthy, I think it would be very well
to marry blin. as it would also bolter
conditions at home. I have not had any
consultation with my parents as yet
about this fact, so I surely would ap
preciate your advice flrnt.
SWEET SIXTEEN.
The marriage you, contemplate Is
against nature. Sixty and sixteen are
two generations spart and not meant to
mate. My dear child, you must not ssc
rlflce your youthto "better conditions st
borne, Walt for lovs and the happiness
tbs years will bring you.
Aloxander and His army. But an abun
dance of things remain st Taxila, which
antedate Alexander.
The great Oreek conqueror was not a
destroyer of anything but the armies and
fortification of the enemies. On the othnr
hand. It was a principle of the other fol
lowers of Buddah never to destroy a
monument, or any other meritorious work
of human genius.
It Is both remarkable and creditable to
the conquerors of ancient times, that al
though Taxila was under the dominion
of five successive empires, within a period
of only 400 yearn, beginning with the In
vasion of Alexander, iminy of Its most
ancient structures with their contents re
main intact, or at least as nearly Intact
as the great lapse of time would permit.
in me course or many centuries dlf-
terent nations hold possession of Tax
ila, and developed there their .own forms
of art, but they respected ttie work or
their predecessors, and so left, in the
remains of the city, a series of relics In
which the history of the place may be
read..
In one of the rrllo caskets discovered
by Dr. Marshall was enclosed a box of
gold containing a fragment Of bone (prob
ably ascribed to Buddha), together with
pearls, and carved oarnellana and other
precious stones.
It Is discoveries of this kind that are
gradually disclosing the anciont history
of mankind In forma more authentic than
tradition, or even, in many cases, than
written records, and It often happens that
the materials thus brought to light con
stitute the only evldonce that we have ot
the character and doings, and even of
the existence, cf peoples and places which
played a considerable part. In their tune,
In the evolution of humanity.
