It is natural for all women to wish to be liked and admired byItheir ao- quaintances, or, in other wOrds, to wish to be charming. Some people imagine that chalm is a natural gift impossible to acquire. Such 1s by no means the case. It is an art which may be acquired and cultivated. The word “charming” is not an easy one to define, because it com- prises so much, but we all recognize instinctively acharming woman when we see one. . First, to consider the subject from a negative point oIf view. The term charming could not be ap- plied to Ia loud, fast woman Such a woman may, it is true, win the admira- V tion of some, but she would not be de- scribed as charming. ' As we consider the. subject a picture of a bright}: before usI—a woman whose dress is re- markable only f01 its exquisite taste andeimp‘l-i'city.‘ It 15 not, in fact, her. dress which strikes the eye first, for‘ '-‘> . . itis so thoroughly in harmony with. " V herself that it is, as it were, .but .the £1 ame to the picture - Beauty' 15 not an essential feature of ‘thé7‘ ivoinaii who chalms,” but hei smile is sweet and winning and her laugh drives away the blues. Neither is she'necessarily a- talented woman, butcher converses with ease and in- telligence on the topics of the day. Her opinions are defined, and to a certain extent decided, but at the same time they are Open to correction, nor does she set them up in opposition to the opinions of Others. ' The charming w‘Oman is not in the habit of talking about herself and her own peculiar troubles and grievances She has her “bad days” like every one else, but she takes care that others shall nO‘t~ sufier on her account, V' and whehshe has an attack of the dumps she isolates herself in order that the infection may spread no further. She is, above all, a sympathetic woman, andknows how to make. people feel that she takes an individual interest in them. She is never too busy to lend assist. ance, and a shake of her hand is as good as any number Of words from any . one else. She is a woman who adapts herself to the varying circumstances of life and who prefers to look on the bright Side of things. All disagreeable and unkind remarks she hears made about others die with her, and she knows how to say the right word at the righttime. In con- versation she studies the sore points of her acquaintances and studiously avoids them, and adroitly introduces subjects on which they can talk best. She is content to be in the shadow if 'she can make another shine. Such is the description of "the woman who charms.” These characteristics have not been acquiied in a flash, but by ca‘. eful study of he1 self and others. She is by no means a paragon of pe1- fection. but, with all her shortcomings, she is possessed of the valuable art of charming. 1 M filly/[ea a/deite. -——"—‘—‘0-0 TEIE ROYAL BL Ur} LINE Offers the finest and most pe1fect train service between New York, Philadel- phia, Baltimore and Washington.

The student in cap and gown this J une' has given way to the soldier boy at the photographers’. its renewal a cu1iously uncertain qual- ity not altogether pleasing. N 0 load of baggage designed for out- of-town shipment is complete without a bicycle or two perched on top. Little by little wall paper is getting back to the designs that our grand‘ mothers thought truly beautiful. The cook who gets intoxicated and thrdws things is not a pleasant acquisi- tion, even in a family that likes excite- ment. A 16-year-old girl that giggles is bad enough, but a boy of that age who knows it all is a still more awful abo m- ination. - To be the most admired individual on earth—never ask a favor. The woman who knows how to dress when traveling 13 never seen in black satin. The smallest boy in market always directs _ his attention t0wards the ”largest basket. The woman who moves out of the corner seat in the open car for the benefit of an incoming passenge1 is as scarce as a white c1 ow. The girl who declares that she isn’t hungry generally eats her way through the menu 1n 3. scientific fashion that makes a small purse quake. To be particularly well dressed on Thursday afternoon is to arouse ' a suspicion in the minds of the observer that you are a maid servant on her day out. With tours of all sorts being planned, the really exclusive woman finds that the only way to live up to her reputa- tion is to remain at home' during the‘ summer. ‘A‘ ‘vr .Wl WILL POSITIVELY PAY -YOU .1 00 If one bottle of Smith’s Green Moun- tain Renovator does not benefit you in case you are troubled with any. blood disorder, chronic rheumatism, Or voneuralgic afiection. _It' is endorsed by" the béSt phySiciVans' 1n the country and is warranted to do what is claimed for it; JOHN A.
