Many women read of the pure food law
In a varus sort of way, wondering Just
what the term means, or at least bow tbs

duality of the food which comes to their
tables day after day.
Tbe average womaa notices little or 00
difference la the supplies which sh buy
and ber excursion to the market or gro
cery reveal do atarUicg changes.
And yet the passage af the pure food
laws is heralded aa a great revolution.
If this is true it baa taken place so quietly
that the poople la general have known lit
tle of it-
A bas often been said, tha law 1 not
a measure to prohibit adulteraote of a de
ceitful but oc harmful character, but only
to insist that labels must state clearly
a hat such materials are. Ia this way
the purchaser caa at least tell what be is
buying.
It 1 said that fer fteopie realise the
rsormooi extent to which foods were adul
terated before the passage of these laws.
It baa been estimated that It par cent
of all the country' ediblea were adulterated
or cheapened by the use of foreign nb-
Thi was particularly noticeable ta spices.
The adulterant for peeper were burnt
flour, starch, cocoa shell and a dose.a
other substance. Even floor waoptsr
tare been used for the very low-priced
grade. Instances have beaa know a where
unscrupulous fellows bav adulterated red
pepper, ths ground sort, with powdered
brick dust, a cheap and entirely Innocuous
substance.
Jellies and Jams had mora attention from
the adulterators thaa almost any other
aabsLance entering Into the food suppUe
of the people.
Tha basis of nearly all tha Jams and
Jellies baa been apple core and peelings
and pumpkin. Theee wha cooked up are
practically taatelea and are, of course. In

suited them to the Jelly makers' purposes.
The ekemlet furnished him with all sort
f colors and flavors which, by the way,
were entirely tanooent ef any oocaerUon
with tha fruit which they purported ta
represent If the Jelly man wanted to
make raspberry Jelly be used tbe right
shads of axaUae dye and raspberry flavor
and hayseed. For cherry preserve or

beh of thi class Just piaced oa view
ia the ahopa sLgw great variety la width,
color, buckle and shaping despite their lim

obtained la the colored morooooa.
No otier leather lead Itself to tha dyer's
purposes so readily aa does moroooo, and
In consequence It la la Lhi leather that
one caa find belt of almost every color
plain, rather narrow belt, with unpretea
tioui buckle of burniBhed cold.
For the wider belt softer leather are

though the smooth, dull finish leather and
the suede or oose leather, which are gen

the coioritga with such richness a doe

For these wider crush belt larg buckle
re used and often elides or ornament of
aoaae sort at tbe back, but a certain sever
ity characterise even the large metal
buckle when they are asaoclated with
leather. Buckle covered with soft leather
and studded or trimmed with steel or other
metal are used for some ef the wide
leather belt, particularly those la white or
light color, but the very ornate buckle
are usually reserved for silk, ribbon or
elastic belt.
Patent leather 1 more used by tha belt

leather tian employed alone. Very rood

There has always been plenty of clever
rtpartee in toast giving at large functions
between mea and women, but It is cot al
ways that thers ar two wits ao easily
matched that one can give th retort dis
courteous to th other in so quick a
manner as to br.r.g out applause.
The way In which this was done at a
recent dinner Is worth repeating, so the
toast ar given In detail. They were both
uncomplimentary, but it goes without ey
ing that thy will be used sgain aad again

sr. an who avowed himself a womaa
hater was asked to give a toast to "lovely

"Here t the womeu who ar tender;
Here to th women who ere teridr:
lieres to the wvmea who are larg and
fat and red;
Hre' to the worn or. wh ar married:
Here to the women who have tarried;
Here to th women who ar speechless
but they are dead."
Without a moment's hesitation a girl
at the other end of the tsble got up and
gave this toast:
"Our sex. you know, was after your de
signed. Trt lest perfection cf th Maker mind:
Heaven drew out all tb gold for us and

costume, when Rodin told her that be did
not need her any more and that be would
finish tha work at hi leisure. When the
American came again h found to ber
amaaemeat that the bead of the statue
bore no resemblance whatever to ber. She
complained bitterly that ao on would even
reoogn'a her. "It 1 true." said th great
sculptor dreamily; "your bead did not tn
spire ma at all. At first I thought I
would sot put acy brad oa tbe statue, a
