TTH marked cleverness and Inge
nuity a woman argue in the
Chicago Tribune that tall glrta
are handlcaped by their alio In
the working world, while the me-
u.u.u or short g-irl la esteemed a priie pack
age and camea off the salary cake. The
reasons for this conclusion are Interesting
and Illuminating. If a tall girl, she says,
seeks employment In a mercantile estab
lishment she finds that the "average sise
figure" counts for everything In all sales
rooms, show rooms and even In ofllces
where the appearance of the woman em
ployes Is estimated by he general effect
they have together. As a mercantile model
she is useless, and as an artist s model she
Is only wanted In special and rare cases.
If she tries going on the stage she quickly
Is brought to a realization of the fact that
her height Is a handicap.
"It was only the other day that a girl
with a perfect face, eyes and complexion,
and Undoubted histrionic ability applied to
a prominent manager for a position.
"On the stage T You?" said the manager,
eyeing her the full length of her Ave feet
even and a half. "No, we could not use
you. You bad better get a job in a gym
nasium." The tall girl may glory In her height and
tier women friends may admire her, but It
la the rare man whose sense of beauty la
developed so that he wants to marry her.
He thinks she Is great on the golf links,
he is less attentive when It comes to tilling
out her dance program, and he is still
more shy at the altar.
Introduce one of these amasons to your
brother or to the friend whom you would
like to have take a fancy to her and you
will have the verdict of the ordinary sized
and commonplace man. "She's a line girl,
but she's too big for me," he will say, un
less he Is a big, strapping athlete himself.
As a matter of fact, the tall girl Is not In
demand except for occasions of show and
when a man wants a "stunning" companion
or a good fellow. He don't want her as a
wife she Is not wanted la business, and she
is at a discount almost anywhere.
On the contrary, the little woman who
Is overdeveloped mentally for her lord has
succeeded in capturing because her small
lse has kept him from suspecting her in
telectuallty. There is many a girl with a
brilliant mind and brilliantly educated
who would scare away the man who
marries her if it were not for the fact
that her brains do not show because of
her being little, and with the atractlve
ways which little women have of looking
up at men who are bigger than they are.
She appeals to his physical weakness and
the dread that she may one day wind him
around her finger never occurs to him.
The small girl is in the ascendant. Out
shone in the athletic field and eclipsed In
publlo gatherings by her tall and queenly
later, she is victor in matrimony, and en
tertains in her own home for her superbly
tall bachelor girl friend.

new styles show red as the predominating
color the redder the better.
A K a or It oa Hick Heels. ,
The Philadelphia Board of Education has
undertaken to go into the question as to
whether the wearing of high heels by a
woman is an act of contributory negli
gence. The matter came up in connection
with the application of a teacher in one
of the public schools for the allowance of
full salary while absent from duty because
of a sprained ankle. In her petition to the
beard the teacher set forth that while In
the discharge of her duties she slipped on
the stone steps leading to the playground
and suffered thereby a severe ankle strain.
which kept her In the house several days.
She claimed that the accident was due
solely to the badly worn condition of the
steps.
In his testimony before the board the
district superintendent in whose Jurlsdlc
tion the teacher worked confirmed the petl
tloner's assertion regarding the condition
of the steps, but confessed, when ques
tioned, that he had not ascertained any
thing regarding the kind of shoe heels the
teacher wore. Now, these careful Philadel
phia guardians of the city's educational
plant are hoping to save the amount of
this teacher's pay by proving that she, In
defiance of the laws of health and the In
junctions of the Quakers bearing on "plain"
dressing, wore high heels to school. The
district superintendent has pledged him
self to investigate the matter further, and
the board Is hopeful.
Club Women Hire Tutors.
New York club women, for all their super
lative brand of brains, often feel that they
don't make deep impressions upon the
minds of the audiences which they address,
which feeling Is almost as Irritating to the
nerves as not being able to talk at all.
Consequently, says the New York Mall,
they have begun to hie them to the elocu
tionists, who take them in hand and tell
them how to deliver effectively the address
which they have learned by heart, and
how to hurl the telling points at the bon
nets in a way to cause certain enthusiasm.
Several elocutionists In town are making
quite a good Income by giving their critical
judgment o club Women. Of course these
teachers are sworn to secrecy, but they
generally manage to drop a consoling hint
to each individual that there are many oth
ers In the same business.

This is a season of great variety in IIOME FURNISHINGS and we are fully prepared for the great rush which will surely como in a few weeks later.
It is our advice to all prospective purchasers, not to wait till the choicest goods have been selected by the wise ones, but come now and participate in
this great advance showing of spring goods, don't wait with the idea that you will pay less for such is not the case. Every article purchased later in the
season will cost us more and consequently will be sold for more. Anticipating an advance, we placed our orders months ago and secured the best possible
prices, which enables us now to offer you EXTRA INDUCEMENTS. ,
ALL GOODS PURCHASED NOW WILL BE HELD FOR FUTURE DELIVERY.
Red la High Favor.
"Any old color, so long as It is red," is
the prevailing hint In the color of hats, as
brought out very forcibly in the National
Milliners' convention, in session in Chi
cago. Also the death sentence of the long
automobile veil was formally read by Mme.
Hunt, president of the association.
Draped plaques, half turbuns and colling
French sailors are decidedly vogue for the
season. The plaques come In flat, clrcular
hawed straws, which- are tortured, twisted
and hammered In positively lnconcvlvablu
shapes. Then balm Is applied In the way
of soft, beautiful laces, trimmings of
dulnty ferns, and forth comes the "draped
plaque."
The long chiffon draplngs of last season
are decidedly out of form this year. The
very longest will barely touch the shoulder
and will consist of French laces, thread
laces, Valenciennes and duchess laces, and
the common herd cannot touch these ex
clusive designs, because of their high cost.
The half rolling sailor, on the other hand,
will be made much of in every style, and
milliners predict for it a short, but popu
lar life, because It can be put us at com
paratively small cost.
Millions will go Into buckles this season.
Blue hats are not good form any more.
Unless made of the very costliest materials
they fade speedily. They will still be worn
with solid suits. One crimson hat, with
about' four quarts of cherries clustered
under the brim and a few scatered hither
and yon around the top, seemed to be the
New ThlnKS la Jewelry
Oblongs of rare rose-pink coral con
nected by chains set with pearls make a
dainty combination In neck ornaments for
young girls, " says the Jewelers' Weekly.
An example of a unique chain is of
rather heavy gold links, set with groups
of gems, two heart shaped amethysts, be
tween which is a round cut crystal, com
prising each group.
Three curving chains of large diamonds
depend, one above another, from diamond
bows which finish either end of a narrow
oval of diamonds mounted on a devant
de corsage. In this connection may be
noted a bird of paradise, in which platinum
and gold are used together. The diamonds
form the body and long feathers are
mounted In platinum, while bright gold
Is used for the bird's beak and the feet,
which rest upon a curving spray of dia
mond flowers
A pendant of. exquisite gold filigree is
studded with round pearls, which brings
Into greater prominence the fine oval tur
quoise used as a central touch of color.
The prettiest watch cases Imaginable, In
which gold Is chiefly displayed, are those
showing gold filigree over dark red enamel,
the color appearing here and there as un
derlying the elaborately rich design. Cases
of other small watches have patterns or
conventional figures carried out In dia
monds on the bright and plain surface.
The use of fine round pearls Is shown
In almost every direction In up-to-date
Jewelry. Handsome brooches In fine
enamels, as orchids and other rare flowers,
are further enriched with pearls or pearls
and diamonds, wherever thsy can be ef
fectively placed on the petals and In the
heart of the flower, with a large pearl,
sometimes as a dropstone.
Borne medium sized crosses of green
tourmalines or of sapphires have the splay
ends composed entirely of diamonds or of
pearls set above with diamonds.

Something New In Veils.
The man who said that there is nothing
new under the sun lived before the day of
the face veil. Most of the little acces
sories which go so far toward making the
great wall dressed Changs with the seasons;
not so the face veil.
Styles In that change between times as
well. At present, simultaneously with
Paris, New York veil Importers say, there
l3 a great showing of novelUes in veils
and veilings. A made veil known as the
flirtation la having a great run.
The flirtation is three yards long and a
warm article. It is made of washable
chiffon of a filmy texture that would make
Peter Pan ashamed when he holds his lost
shadow up to the publlo eye. The ends ar
hand fainted In big llowers, and In some
cases a painted border extends down both
sides.
It is generally worn loose over a com
plexion veil and is also employed as a head
covering for evening wear.
Many of the new carriage and calling
veils have pin head dots very close to
gether and a sparse sprinkling of large
velvet or chenille dots over these. Sucn
have a border of real lace or narrow velvet
ribbon and should be chosen to match the
gown.
NeVer before have made veils and veil
ings by the yard been obtainable In color
so wonderful and so becoming. Even the
plainest woman. If she has a right sense of
color, can find something In them to hide
her defects and enhance her charms.
Smart automobile veils necessarily are
of chiffon cloth, for it Is both dust and
water proof, and their ends are embellished
and mado strong with velvet dots.
A wise woman expends a good deal of
thought on the veils and sticks to what
suits her best in spite of alluring novelties.
Authorities say that the wash lace veil will
come Into Its own again this summer. Us
advent will be hailed with delight by those
of limited Income, for a veil of this kind s
cheap, durable, becoming and easily cleaned
at home.
Wobh Anions; Cannibals.
Miss Beatrice Orlmshaw hos penetrated
Into the very recesses of cannibal land in
company with a missionary guide, the Rev.
Mr. Boyd, and saw the savages "clothed,
as usual. In their native impudence and a
cartridge belt," and displayed a curiosity
and courage which were truly remarkable
In a member of the gentler sex.
Her escort was a Presbytortan missionary
who, with his wife, had been there for ten
yearn and who bad managed to reduce
considerably the death rate from inter
tribal quarrels, says a Sydney correspond
ent of the Chicago Dally News, lie ap
pears to have been another Tamate, as
Chambers was universally called by the
natives of New Guinea, with a perfect
genius for going unarmed among the
fiercest cannibal tribes and soothing the
Intertribal differences which, but for his
presence, would undoubtedly have led to
war.
On one occasion 100 savages in full war
paint, armed with guns and poisoned ar
rows, surrounded Mr. Boyd's house and
threatened to kill him because a certain
sacred weapon had been pulled out of a
tree and bad weather had ensued. The mis
sionary, we are told, "walked out into the
middle of the hideous company and told
tKtn that he had nothing to do with the
question. They listened to him and were
convinced, and went peaceably away."
The description given by Miss Orlmshaw
of the toilet of one of these Interesting can
nibals made up for a dance is as follows:
His head dress was "a very neat arrange
ment tn powdered white wood ash, giving
him an extraordinary resemblance to a
Sydney barrUtor." All of these delightful
1 personages, it seems, were fully armed
with rifles, which they well knew how to
use. The poisoned arrows were not always
In evidence, but when they were used death
was said to follow invariably on the ninth
day.
Miss Orlmshaw seems to have Ingratiated
herself with the natives, some of whom
had never seen a white woman before.
They allowed her to photograph their Idols,
their sacred- mummies and even them
selves, the photographs bringing Into
prominence ths peculiar native custom of
compressing the head wltn spirally wound
oords.
In one graphio sentence Miss Orlmshaw
points savage life as it really is: "The wo
men of Malekula," she says, "are bent and
misshapen with the enormous loads they
are obliged to carry, and their expression
Is, if poslble, still more degraded than
that of the .men. Pleasure of any kind
is a thing unknown to them; there Is
nothing for them to enjoy -from the pan-danus-plalt
cradle slung over the mother's
-shoulder to the grave, which Is only a hole
scratched in the surface of the earth, un
named and unnumbered if Indeed any one
takes the trouble to bury the poor corpse
at all."
Her Perquisite.
E. Z. Gross, the mayor of Harrlsburg,
Pa., was condemning the fees and unfair
perquisites which swell unduly the salaries
of many unimportant office holders.
"Fees and perquisites," he said, "tend
to cause unjust dealings. Even In the
kitchen this Is so. A burcher told me the
other day that a young woman, the cook
in a prominent family hereabouts, came
into his shop and said:
" 'Gimme a line large roast o' beef, with
plenty o' bones." .
" 'Plenty of bones T" said the butcher,
In amazement.
'Yes," answered the young woman.
'Bones Is my perquisite." "
Only Woman Moll Carrier,
Plnevllle boasts the honor of having the
only woman general mall carrier In Mis
souri, says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. She
Is Mrs. Effie Davis. When her husband be
came an Invalid two years ago Mrs. Davis
took charge of the mall route.
Every day she goes out and is a familiar
and welcome visitor to all the homes in the
hill-locked circuit of her route. Site starts
at 10 o'clock In the morning and drives
twenty or twenty-fltre miles by dark. She
has a rocky, hilly trail to travel, but travels
It Jovially, light-heartedly, faithfully for
she's paying for a home.
She Is stout, short, comely and SS, with
two sons in their early teens. She is able
to take care of herself, but as a measure
of precaution "Bob," the -premier shepherd
dog of McDonald county, always rides at
her feet, and with the dog there she's not
afraid.
She sometimes rides forth gaily In a regu
lation rural delivery wagon of the most ap
proved pattern, white body, with maroon
trimmings, glass sliding doors, Inside pigeon
holes, and all that. At other times, and
more often, she uses an open buggy, with
a huckster's umbrella and a pine box In
front tor the mall. This latter vehicle Is
better adapted to the rough rldge and val
ley roads of the Dog Hollow route.
Mrs. Davis has already held her govern
ment Job more than a year. It pays VO a
month, and she drives only one horse. She
supposed at first that she might some day
sublet, but found In time that the postal
authorities would permit neither this nor
the employment of a substitute for moio
than a few days each month. The work
was easy and pleasant, and she kept on.

Women sailors are employed in Drnnwrk.
Norway and Finland, and are often found
to be excellent mariners. In Denmark sev

It is the same In Finland.
One of the best known women In the
state of Idaho Is Mrs. Emma Edwards
Green, who designed the seal of Idaho,
being the first woman to design -a state
seal. Her design showed the rich natural
resources tn this mining - state, and the
men who competed with her passed them
by for purely Imaginary designs. She
travels with her husband through the
state to the most Inaccessible places and
can stand the privations as well as the
men. Her work is principally, however,
for women, whose mines she sells and
develops. She enjoys having the ballot
and takes great Interest In the politics
of the state.
Half a dosen clever girls in Now York
are earning substantial Incomes as "book
digesters." Each of them has for her
olientele women too busy with social en
gagements to find time for reading, yet
who wish to keep abreast of current litera
ture. The "digester" carefully follows
noteworthy publications In fiction, art
science, history or religion. Once or twice
a week she calls at the home of her "client"
to review the contents of the books read.
She Is careful to memorise any epigram
or witty saying that her client might in
troduce effectively In conversation. "It Is
remarkable how little leisure some women
have," said a Vassar graduate who has
adopted the new calling. "They can sel
dom give rns a half hour all to myself.
I am asked to call at the same hour as the
.hairdresser, the manicure or the chiropo
dist, and in specially gay seasons all three
of these attendants may bo at work upon
her while I sit at a little distance and
post her on. current books."
Prills of Fashion. ' ,
Braids and gimps come In all colors to
Correspond with the new cloths.
Crochet buttons will adorn the linen and
cotton suits for the coming season.
Braces of material to match the skirt
are worn with the corselet skirt over the
lingerie blouse.
For the theater there are little boleros
of silk muslin covered with Valenciennes
ruffles and insertions.
Buttons designed for trimming use have
been introduced In a variety of shapes and
there are pretty conceits In floral effects.
Elbow length sleeves and long gloves
seem especially adapted to the old-fashioned
wide band bracelet. Which is again
In vogue.
The mushroom, or Inverted plate, hat has
come forward again In the spring models
and promises to be extremely popular.
For morning wear smart little toques of
fine straw or crin are trimmed with a
single stiff wing In front or to one side, and
a bunch of ribbons loops at the back.
. Some of the empire princess gowns are a
bit extreme for good taste. They are mere
slips, waistlens and sheath-like, and ono
thinks of nothing but a bag in contem
plating them.
What do you think the girls are wearing
now? Necxluces of shells. They come
from Honolulu and are as beauliful as
they are cheap. Nothing could be more
beautiful In color than these island chains,
and they measure about two yards In
length, making It possible to wind them
three times about the neck.
Lacc in combination with net is seen In
the handsomest waists. All-over Valen

model. It haw a yoke ot duchesse lace
elaborately put together with hand fagot

made with a bolero of baby lrlsu crochet,
threuted with pale blue velvet ribbon, which
drew the bolero Into shape over the bust.
The waist patterns ready to oe made up
Into charming lingerie waists are very at
tractive. The newest of them have de
tachable, leudy-lo-wear collar and cuff
bands. It Is admitted that cuffs and col
lars of white waists soil much mori
quickly than the rest of the garment, and
to have adjustable ones will mean a sav

of too trequeut Uiundernigs will also bo
saved.
