PRETTZ girl In Boston named
A
Miss Bar a Cona Bryant has re
vived the Institution of the old
story teller whose business In
life was to entertain children
with tales of adventure, lovo and mystery,
receiving; for his entertainment dole that
sufficed for Ms dally wants. Miss Bryant
has become exceedingly popular In her
new role and has developed for the benefit
of nil those whom her work can reach, as
well as for her own pleasure, a Rift which
It is the fortune of very few people to pos
sess, that of telling; a tale In such a way
as to prove of an absorbing Interest to
grownups" as well as to the youngsters.
For a long while she has been telling
stories to children for her own pleasure
as well as for their own. says the Phila
delphia North American.
Lately, however, she .decided that by
talking to mothers' clubs and library as
sociations she could widen the field of her
endoavor and accomplish her purpose to
far better advantage.
"The use of story-telling for educational
purposes Is by no means new to a certain
extent," she said recently.
"Every mother has used It since mothers
first were and the teachers of kindergar
tens came to be, and long, long before
kindergartens were ever thought of there
were the court story-tellers who hod
the art of narrative down to a point so
fine as never to have been equaled In
later days.
"X tell stories to children's parties, some
times In drawing rooms where a few chil
dren of the wealthier part of the commun
ity are the guests, sometimes to hundreds
of children of all classes gathered in a
hall as tha guests of a club or school and
very often to members of a Sunday school
at the time of Christmas trees.
"When you tell a story to children you
tell them only the best and most beautiful
parts of the story. You unconsciously leave
out all that which is not absolutely neces
sary for the understanding of the story.
Take, for Instance, the classic fairy tales,
the stories along that line Grimm's, An
derson's and the standard Inventions that
have come down through generation after
generation.
"Next to the fairy tales and the allegories
come the historical legends. These are for
the older children and are of great value
In teaching history. Everyone, child or
adult, like the stories of the heroes, and if
you narrate your history in the form of
a story about some great man or woman
you will not only hold the attention, but
A akin of be-iuty is a joy forever.

Camplexloa Powelera for Every Skin,
tl I foroed to be content with just
white and rose. Both of these
were easily discernible, for they
made her cither too red or too pale.
Nowadays there are no less than fifteen
distinct powders adapted to all sorls an
colors of complexions, from that of the
dusky belle of the Sandwich Islands, the
sunburnt beauty of Narragansctt Pier,
and the ruddy checks of western plaint,
to the pale and fragile complexion of the
young woman who never expnres her face,
unveiled, to the carosse.i of wind nnd sun.
Not only are there fifteen tints of com
plexion powders, but they are put up in
different forms to suit different occislon-.
There are liquid powders, which are to be
"shaken before taken." Pulve:lied row
ders are to be applied with a puff or a b't
of chamois leather. Hard powders are pit
up in cake.1 of different sizes, intended to
bs squeezed Into the tiny compirtments of
a purse or chatelaine powder box, or fitted
Into a dainty silver box for traveling pur
poses. Of the hard powders one carr.'c a cake of
the tint of lier own complexion nnd a tiny
cake of rogue, for blushing purposes. Focts
have sung the beauties of the blush for s
many ages that women have come to re
lieve in it, too, and apply It, with more
or less of art, on most occasions.
In applying liquid powder the fa-.e is
first well washed, dried and rublVi with
some one of the milk preparations In
vogue, and then the liquid powder is rublcJ
in. The result is a soft looking skin.
There Is a creamy texture to the be it
liquid powders. Milady should n-vcr ue
any but the best, because one cinnot buy
a new skin when the old one has tee.i
damaged, complexion specialists to tho
contrary.
Yet the Idea that a face powder any sort
of a face powder Is beautifying has t3ken
such firm hold in the feminine mind t:iat
many a girl who rhoulj know belter will
endeavor to undo the work of nature by
applying powders that her friends recom
mend. In Southwestern Ixmlrlina there
are settlements of Acadian, tho remnants
of the voyagers from Canada, whoso only
Idea of the benefits of education Is that
face powders may be made from chalk. At
any big entertainment the women may be
seen with tholr faces ehcilked till they re
semble nothing so much as a company of
corpses. Thene women do not bother about
preparing the chalk; they Kimply take a
chalk pencil and rub It into the skin with
unction, and the more ghastly the result
the better are they plcised.
Porcelain Jewelry for Dresdeu ;lrl.
INCE the first painted porcelain
I buttons .arrived the fad fur them
v I has been erroulnar. Now m v ladv
fair is adorning herself with
enough dainty "ware" to make
her Identity doubtful you are inclined to
wonder If she Is not a walking china cabi
net. Her "dishes," as one Irreverent young
son calls-them,' spread up and down the
bodice, dangle at her belt and appear at her
cuffs. They are particularly appropriate to
the Dresden style of girl.
Tho women who paint on china can give
themselves and their friends a large amount
of pleasure at a small cost of time and
labor. The method of painting and flrinrr Is
exactly the same as with any kind of porce
lain painting. Last summer the designs
were principally of flowers, but there Is a
tendency now In favor of the old miniature
designs; quaint heads, sticli as the old ivory
painters produced.
One woman who Is really an artist and
does not have to depend upon copying her'
designs, paints real pcrtralts of herself and
friends. 8he wears her husband on a l.irge
oval belt clarp, her daughter on a watch
fob end her sons on her link cuff buttons.
It In something overwhelming to see so
large a family gathering, but it la pretty to
behold a face that the wearer la fond of
tucked away in the folds of a neck or belt
ribbon. ' - .-
The w 11 dr6ed woman will have- many
shirtwaist acts In different colors. On
painted 1b !nk roaasj, another In forget-
me-ncts, and still another in holly will get
her through the winter fairly well. The lat
ter have a rpray of green U-nve nnd scarlet
berries framed In a delicate, lrikcn gold
border, on white ground.
Now that i.-d Is tha smart color of tho
season It Is well to have a complete set of
the porcelain In this design, for It will be
the prettiest possible finish for a scarlet
shirtwaist. There should be a large round
or oval belt clasp to crush the brand belt
ribbon through. Slides, buckles nnd pins
con be bought for the belt, all of porcrlaln,
ready to be painted and mounted In a gilt
metal.
The link buttons for the cuffs have on
one end a go!d ball or fllljree design and
on -the otl.er a tiny pnrccHIn oval, on
which only the smaltet tprny nr held
can find room. Sonctimes the form is
round or heart shaprd iusteid of oval.
