Show Ladies' Corner. Mrs. Andrew Carnegie, one of , the wealthiest ladies in the world, i is u sniccesyful amateur photographer. photo-grapher. Mr. Ruskin declares all women should be beautiful and charming and his recipe amounts to this: "'Handsome is as handsome does." The boldest man must soon become As quiet as a mouse, For very soon 'twill be once more The time for cleaning house. Ex. Madam Patti's explanation of how she keeps her youth and good looks is this: "I have kept my temper. No woman can remain young who often loses her temper." It is about seventy-three years ago since the parents of Queen Victoria, who were living abroad, hastened home in order that she might be "born a Briton." Her 73rd birthday occurs May 21. Tho pretty woman fully realizes that never does she appear to greater advantage than in a tutste-f tutste-f u 1 and bccoi n i n g teago w n , a nd haviVigdiscovcred its combined ease and grace, she will be slow to discard dis-card it. Young ladies, always love and confide in your mothers, and ten chances to one you will get along well in this world. Watch the young men you drive with; he who will beat his horse will ill-use bis wife. There are at the present time many branches of employment which are of inestimable value to a young woman. Among them is the printer's trade; the "intelligent compositor" has one of the best chances in the world to become self-educated. It is Mine. Patti's intention, on I her return from her present tour i in this country, to produce, in her private theatre at Craig-y-Nos, Douglas Jerrold's fine old play of Black-Eyed Susan, with herself in the title part. Henry Irving, it is said, has promised to assist in the production. There is nothing that so becomes a young woman as a thorough knowledge of housekeeping, and most of all to be able to prepare a palatable and delicious meal. I don't believe a man's conscience would allow him to get a divorce from a wife who was a good cook and could delight his appetite at dinner time. Ex. The Prince and Princess of WaleB, who are in the south of France, are literally unable to stir out of their hotel without being pursued by well-dressed men and women armed with cameras, and regular picnic parties come over, equipped with lunch baskets, to establish themselves in and around the hotel gardens for the purpose of catching a glimpse of the still grief-stricken royalists. "White, the color of purity, is the only color that all women of all complexions and ages can becomingly becom-ingly wear. It is suitable for the young, innocent baby, the little maid, the sweet girl graduate, the happy bride, the stately matron, and the dear, old grandmother. And last of all, it is the color in which we lay away our dead and the color in which they will appear to us when we meet them again as shining angels of light in the home of our Father in heaven. Much has been said and written of late upon the value of fresh fruit as food, and competent authorities among physicians and scientists agree in insisting upon the use of fruit, especially as an introduction to the morning meal. And here in Brigham, where- s.uch quantities and varieties of the best fruits in the land can be had during all the summer and fall months, the housewife house-wife can spare herself much of the labor of preparing food by serving fresh fruit on her table in tho many dainty, appetizing ways that will suggest themselves to her woman's wit. |
