Many of the most carefully bound
examples were found to contain not a
completed bird, bit only a bunch of
feathers; others again consisted of a
few bones and feathers mixed, and in
one case a single egg. The careful
preservation of not only complete
birds, but of eggs, bones, and even
odd feathers is good evidence for
supposing that the worship of Thoth
and the veneration for the bird, which
was sacred to him. still had a strong
bold upon the minds and imagination
of the people of Egypt, even as late
as the Roman period.

slums. His tombstone, with a curious
epitaph, was often used as a poor
man's dinner table until the reform of
the graveyard. Whatever the house

bored by the Penderells may be now.
It was in those days a forester's house

from an Interesting book printed In

blouse, a dolly varden hat, motor vepl,

Dressing was not an easy matter. The
skirt was rather tight round the waist
and the movements of my legs were
much restricted. The hat went 6n
easy enough, but I had a little trouble
with the blouse.

came down to eighteen inches. I saw
Butler standing near the gate and I
walked up to him. Then I thought of
my voice, which is rather deep. I

I could and said, 'Good evening.' Ele

'dearest' and suggested a walk, which
we took. He never doubted my iden-

All that some girls need to make
them attractive and gpod looking ,1s
poise. The older one grows the more
essential It id to take things calmly.
Poise Is synonymous with, good
breeding. An excellent plan to hqlp
yourself acquire It Is to go into a quiet
room by yourself each day. for at least
twenty minutes and relax, not only
your body, but your mind as well.
After you possess this necessary
quality It will become part of you and
you will not mar your health and
beauty by unnecessary distortions ot
the face and body.
Silken Waistcoats.
Waistcoats are much in evidence.
Some are long and narrow, others
quite wide and no more apparent
than a man's waistcoat worn with tha
morning cutaway coat.
These waistcoats, like the braided
coats, are mostly to be seen In ben-
galines, silk crepons.and other silken
fabrics. The classical tailor-made la
at Its newest In violet, green or white
serge In thick diagonal rib. Its con-
struction Is rather curious, for at
though there are no draperies the
skirts are so cut about In strangely
shaped points and squares that the
result Is slightly puzzling.
Anyhow, the effect Is quite Interest*
lng, and, what la the chief point, it la
very new and very difficult for lndlf1
ferent workmen to copy successfully.
For this reason It will hare a cartel*
popularity.
Hair Ornaments.
The straight fillet* so much seen
with evening dress las* year, are now
partially superseded by those arrang-
ed In curves which form a wavy line
upon the coiffure. They end In Jew-
eled circlets with short fringe to
-match, and can be adjusted in a mo-
ment. One of the prettiest of jeweled
bands for the hair Is In a design of
wheels between'two bands of Jewel-
ing. The whole bandeau enda In a
point nt either side. It Is rather
high In front, a fashion which suits
the round-faced.
CONTRASTS THE BEST MATES fOLEY KIDNEY PHIfi
Quiet Men Should Wed Vivacious
Women, an English Opinion,
Expressed In Print.
"Does the average man prefer the
deofcre, coy kind of girl or the
bright and vivacious girl—in all proba-
bility a flirt—and which kind of a
girl makes the better wife?" This is
the question on which a modern girl
asks opinion through a London news-
paper. ' "
"I have read in your paper many
opinions on the modern girl given by
young men," she writes, "but I have
not found an answer to the question
which countless other girls besides
myself would like answered.
"It seems to me that the average
man marries the coy, quiet girl, but
after a few years of married life is
apt to seek the society of the viva-
ctous girl, very often at the expense of
his wife's happiness."
Here are some opinions of London
people:
Rev. C. H. Grundy, vicar of St.
Peter's, Rrockley, believes in the at-
traction of the opposite.
"I think the quiet man generally
marries, and generally should marry,
the vivacious girl," he says, "and the
bright, vivacious man, on the con-
trary, prefers and gets on better with
his opposite.
"Some of the quietest men I have
known," he said, "thoroughly enjoy
the vivaciousness of their wives.
"Men like contrasts. You don t
want a replica of yourself You want
variety. A wife who is your 'double
doubles your dullness.
"The best wife is the 'contrast' wife,
and if you are both alike your home is
dull and monotonous."
When It comes to work, in the spring
almost anybody is willing to pose as a
total abstainer.

I Iola, Raa«M.—"DuringtheChange
of Life I was sick for two years. Be-
fore I took yoar medicine I could
not bear the. weight of my clothes
and was bloated very badly. I doc-
tored with three doctors but they
did me no good. They said nature
must have its way. Mr sister ad-
vised me to take Lydia B. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and I purchased
a bottle. Before it was gone the
bloating left me and 1 was not so
sore. I continued taking it until I
had taken 12 bottles. Now I am
stronger than I have been for years
and can do all my work, even the
washing. Your medicine is worth
its weight in gold. I cannot praise
it enough. If more women would
take your medicine there would be
more healthy women. You may use
this letter for the good of others."—
