This is so simple and easy, without entailing any trouble as to massage, though, used wisely, there are few elements of beauty culture which are so importaut as the aid of a good masseuse or acquiring the art of self-massage; but it must be skillful treatment. Rough and ready massaging Is on all hands to be avoided. One should know something about the muscles and their direction, and a good deal about the human form divine. Health and a youthful appearance go hand in hand, and wa cannot know too much of how to maintain health in the body. reaches the 30s, just in front of the ear and at the side of the face.

They are almost invisible at first, but they Increase later, and add a great many years to the appearance, and tell the number of years in an Incredible way. If treated early they fly away, but once let them obtain a hold, it is very difficult to get rid of them. The chin and the throat also are telltales, for they show lines early, but they are very much aggravated by the position in which the head is held. Great care should be taken to poise it well; this gives a commanding carriage. The chin should be tilted slightly upward.

These little points give much dignity to the appearance. To bold one's head up has always been wise advice, and most, certainly it Is so when one is bent on beauty culture. But there is an is perfectly true that a woman is as old as she looks. The more sprightly a woman is the mora signs of vitality she has about her, the younger she seems. She must move with an elastic step, and there is a great art of sitting and rising in a youthful fashion.

As age approaches one has to struggle for equilibrium, so a woman must study how to balance the body. It is necessary to sit down gracefully, not In haste, and In such a way that one does not lose one's balance, and when rising let the feet be well under one and let the body spring up lightly, not holding on to the chair, as one would do, perhaps by Instinct, aa the years go on, but remember, in getting up, the pose of the feet. It is worth while to practice certain balance exercises, which help greatly in retaining elasticity of movement. One must remember that one cannot keep the equilibrium unless the body Is properly pivoted. Let the feet be well poised first as one rises, and then the body will come naturally over them, and one will get credit for sprlghtllness, which means youth.

Women are so apt to look in their mir MODEL IN BLACK AND WHITE: Most women, if they were asked by Jairy godmother to choose three gifts she rould bestow, like the old story of our (childhood, most probably would demand wealth, beauty and perpetual youth. At Bll events, whatever else they did not de-Ire, they would certainly value the durability of a youthful appearance. No one seems to be careful enough In pteeping control over the appearance. One 0s far too apt to frown and look serious, hereby implanting wrinkles and lines, Which once come are most difficult to Jffface, whereas with a little trouble and these signs of age need not tie implanted for some years. Pose and expression have a great deal do with a youthful appearance, and, Jbavlng realized what in these is most use- Sul in retaining juvenility, our advice Is follow it closely.

Looking downward tend bending the chin a little Inward is fattening to the neck, and women should tiever neglect to massage the wrinkles, when they do come, the contrary way.

And he did come out with the fact that he was over theag limit set down in the league. However, Arthur thinks that if he can't play ball with the league boys he can at least have a quiet little game at home with his Eagle Pennant Game. Ho came in for one the other day.

Other admirers of the Eagle's newest fun for boys are Walter Quinn. Manager Hoag, and In fact all the members of the winning "sixes." That game is really great fun.

Home Made Saratoga Chips "Home-made Saratoga chips are much more of a rarity than they should be," says Fannie Merritt Farmer in the Woman's Home Companion. "It one owns a potato slicer, which It not an expensive utensil, they are not difficult to prepare. They are always an acceptable accompaniment to fried fish, but perhaps are never more happily In evidence than when served as one of the accessories of a picnic luncheon.

Wash and pare me-dium-slzed potatoes. Slice thin, using a vegetable slicer made for the purpose. Into a bowl ot cold water, and let stand one and one-half hours, changing the water twice. Drain, plunge into a kettle of boiling water, and let boil one minute. Drain again, cover with cold water, and let stand five minutes.

Take from the water, and dry between towels. Fry In deep fat until delicately browned, keeping in motion with a skimmer throughout the cooking. Remove with a skimmer to a pan lined with brown paper (which will absorb the superfluous fat), and sprinkle with salt. Always drain fried potatoes on brown paper, for fried food, it properly cooked and properly drained, seldom absorbs enough fat to be Indigestible to adults." NEWS of AUNT JEAN'S NIECES and NEPHEWS.

But one forgets or fails to see the tiny wrinkles that come even before ont vwvwwvwvwvvvwvmww IN Washington one may see beautiful representatives from every country to the world. Most of these women are the wives or daughters of the ministers or attaches. Among the many beautiful women attached to the French Embassy is Madame Blanpre, the wife of the military attache. Madame Blanpre Is much admired by Americans of both sexes.

Madame Blanpre has a soft, rich voice and speaks English fluently with a dell-clous accent. She is considered one of the foremost wits of the French Embassy. In looks Madame Blanpre is a typical French woman. She has large, brilliant eyes, an aristocratic nose, a rosebud mouth and a mass of beautiful chestnut hair. Her figure is ideal.

With regard to dressing, Madame Blanpre shows that she possesses her share of the taste and art of the French, and she is always appropriately gowned. She is not a mere butterfly, however, for every morning she occupies some hours in assisting her husband. (Copyright, 1907, Capital Press Association). Flowered Taffeta Linings.

He Had a Good Time. Aunt Jean Having read so much about Aunt Jean's outing I thought I would attend one. It was the first time I ever W6nt with an Eagle outing of the Auui Jean Club, and I must say I had a good time, and so did all the others who attended. We started from the Fifth Avenue Branch of the Eagle; went along Fifth avenue to Bergen street, up Ber-geu street to Flatbush avenue, along Flatbttsh avenue to Ocean avenue, up Ocean avenue to Brighton Beach. When we arrived there was a scramble to get to Aunt Jean's side, to see what she was going to do, or had to say.

We then walked around a while and down to the beach, where we ate our lunch. After lunch we had races, and Aunt Jean ran against a man from Jbe main office. Aunt Jean lost; but we Would liked to have seen her win. Then this same man ran against the young man from the Fifth Avenue Branch, and we were glad to see our friend from Fifth avenue win. After Ihe races we went to the Brighton Beach Music Hall.

We had our picture taken here, and every one tried to get in front so as to be sure they would not be left out. Then we went in to see the show, which we enjoyed very much. During intermission we had icecream, popcorn and soda water. Then we all went back to our seats and saw the finish of the show. After the show was over we walked out of the Musio Hall back to the cars and took our seats.

Coming home we enjoyed the ride very much as it was nice and cool. We had singing and also college calls. Everyone arrived home safely. I thank you. Aunt Jean.

HARRY'S LETTER special court made for the purpose. In the former case, all that is required is a couple of posts such as are used In croquet, and a plot of grass to roll the balls on from post to post, the lines of a simple court on a lawn being as follows: S3 Line nf XI feet.

i 4 Boys, the medals have come, but. In or-Her that more people may know what good ball players you are, and see you get your reward, I have decided to make the presentation of the medals a large end Important affair. I thought it would Ibe nice to invite your mothers, sisters End brothers to an afternoon party, have programme and a social time, and have ItTncle Henry present to you these little bronze remembrances. You see, you are Dot given medals every day, so why not make this occasion one to be remembered? Possess your bouIs in patience. The jrncdals will keep and they will surely be jtfyours.

When the boys all come home the country then we will have this affair. Don't you think this would be ilbetter than my giving them to you just 4n an offhand way? I am now taking applications for enrollment in our boys club, and I am very much gratified by the Interest the boys are taking in it. I can't tell you just now what the schedule of work will be, but I can assure you that it will interest you. It will have variety, because all Iboys do not like the same things. However, in this matter, as in all others, I fcm open to your suggestions.

Please don't be backward in giving them big and little ones as well. This does uiot mean that the big boys will be mem-Ibers of the same clubs the smaller ones (re. Members will be graded according to age. I should like very much to know just MWhat the boys from 8 to 12 would like no do. Also those from 12 to 14.

I desire to say Just a about the meetings of the various clubs.

Nothing is to interfere with your studies. These OUR Saratoga Park, Brooklyn, August 2, 1907. My Dear Aunt Jean In this letter I resume my talk to your boys, and it is in the form of teaching them how to play a new lawn game, especially adapted to boys who are fortunate enough to be able to enjoy their summer vacation In the country; especially when they have no tennis or golf field at command. Now, my lawn bowls game for boys is very simple In Its construction and theory, and It is easily played; and yet it affords the boys lots of fun, without fatiguing exercises. I introduce it to your readers as follows: There is no lawn game in which a ball is used which will compare In exciting interest for old men of sedentary habits, with the centuries old game of bowls, "Bowling on the green" was the game of games for royalty in tho days of brtiff King Harry VIII, at his palace park at Whitehall.

In fact, the game of bowls was in vogue In the time of King John, In the thirteenth century. It was played in New York before the Revolution, in 1776, the old Bowling Green at the foot of Broadway being a popular resort for the leading merchants of those old days. But If you boys want to know all about the old game, get my handbook on "Lawn Bowls," from the American Sports Athletic Library, and you can learn all you want to know. What I want to talk to you on the subject now is, about a boys game of bowls I constructed over a decade ago, and which 1 now offer to you as a first rate game for boys having command of a small lawn or a piece of ground about ten feet wide and fifty feet long. The boys' game of bowls In question is played either on a field of grass or on a From the Country Dear Aunt Jean I thought I would write to you as you said you liked to hear from children away in the country.

We have been here ever since June 7, and we intend to stsy away from the city until September 10 at least. In winter my home is in Bensonhurst, where I go to Public School 128. I belong to the Literary, Art and Humane Clubs, but I am especially Interested in the Literary Club as I read a great deal and I write Stories. I sent a story to you once, but it was never published. I cannot seem to write short enough stories to have published and I suppose that is why my story wasn't printed.

The name of it was "Marguerite's Dream." I hope that this letter will be published. This place is situated on the top of a Entrance to Prospect Park. Photo by Melvin vireenhall. UNCLE post than that of his adversary. After bowling the first ball to a good position near the post his next play if his ball at the post is not knocked away Is to roll his ball so that it may form a "guard" to bis first ball at the post.

This Is the simple theory of the boy's game of bowls which I have laid out as above. The "court" game of bowls for boys, which I arranged years ago, is more elaborate in ItB construction and requires a regularly laid out court, of which the base or floor Is a hard ground field of play, bordered on one side with boards as a side frame, about five Inches above the hard, smooth floor of the court Isett. This court has two circular ends, Just as shown In the appended diagram: 3 To lay down a bowling court like the above a level piece of hard-surface ground is necessary, and it would be well to sink the level of the court about four or six inches below the surface, boarding the sides of the court. When a regular court is not laid out in this way the game can be easily played on a croquet or tennis lawn, the only points to be laid down being the "tees" or posts at the two ends, and the lines behind which the bowlers are to stand when bowling. A small quoit is laid down In the center of the circle at each end, and this forms the 'tee." In my next letter I will describe the lawn bowls court game for the boys more fully.

With two or rour on a aide each takes two balls. If more than four on a side each player uses one ball only. The object in view Is to place the ball as near the "tee" post as you can, the person bowling the ball nearest the post and having It stay nearest at the close of the "end" counting one point or ace. Twenty-one aces constitute a game and so many games a match. Suppose two persons are playing a match, A begins the game by bowling the ball close to the "tee" post.

The one playing second-each bowling alternately endeavors to knock his opponent's ball from Its position close to the post, and at the same time have his ball remain closer to the mountain five miles from the village and six from the station. It Is a private park containing one inn or hotel and about twenty-five cottages. We have a cottage. This is our fourth summer up here and we like It very much. There is a lake, Masten Lake, about a quarter of an hour's walk from here, where we can fish and row.

There are also many other things to do. I am studying a little each day so that when I go back to school I can pass In the examinations I missed and get promoted into 8A grade. I am taking up Latin also as my chum is, too, and my mother and she both help me. I enjoy it very much. I must close now as I believe this letter is long enough.

Evolutiori of the Raft The canoe was one of the earliest of boats, but it is not In line with the later growth. The ancestry of the modern boat begins with the log and is traced through the raft rather than through the canoe.

By lashing together several logs It was found that larger burdens could be carried. Therefore the boat ol a single leg grew into one oT several-logs a raft. By the time man had learned to make a raft we see he had learned something else; he had learned to row his boat along by pulling at an oar instead of pushing It along with a paddle. Rafts were used by nearly all the nations of antiquity. Herodotus, the father of history, tells us that they were in use in ancient Chaldea.
