You sometimes see a woman whose old age is as exquisite as Was the perfect bloom of her yo..th, says the Pittsburg Dis- • patch. You wonder how it is her life has been a long and -j happy one. Here are some of! the reasons * She knew how to forget the I disagreeable things. She kept her nerves well isi j ■ hand, au inflicted them on no! :One. She mistered the art of say ing pleasant things. She did not expect too much j j from her friends. She made v. hatever work came to her congenial. She retained her illusions and did not believe the world wicked or unkind.; She relieved the miserable and sympathized with the sor rowful. She never forgot that kind | words and a smile cost nothing, ! buß" are priceless treasures to j the discouraged. She did unto others as she i would be done by, and now that! old age has come to her, and; there is a halo of white hair about her head, she is loved and ! considered. -This is the secret, of-a long life, and a happy one.

General Young: entered the army as a private' in 1861, rose to the rank of | brevet Brigadier General in ISGS, and re-entered the regular army in 18G8 as a secQnd lieu tenant. Wlien the Spanish War broke out he became a Ma-j jor General af volunteers,fought j the battle of Las Gausitnas, and later went to ; the Philippines. Last winter he was chosen io be president of tlie new War : Colieire at Washingtan. Gen eral Young will hold the posi-; tion only a few months, when he will be retired ; the next in ' line is General Chatfee, whose term of service will be short. i General Chaflee will probably; be succeeded by General Corbin himself after whom comes Gen-| eral Mac Arthur. None of these Generals will have a long lease of office, but General Leonard W»od, who is next in rank to General Mac Arthur, will have several years of active service. —Public opinion.

They are not only more convenient than long, dragging skirts, but are much more serviceable. The strongest argument in favor of the short skirt, however, is tliat it is so much easier to keep cleau and is, therefore, much more healthful. The subject of dress reform is being discussed with great interest in Canada. Not by women alone, but by physicians and health authori ties. One of the subjects most fully considered at a large con vention of physicians in Otto wa recently was tuberculosis. An eminent physician gave it as his opinion that one-fifth of all the deaths in Canada last year resulted from pulmonary con sumption. There was a con census of Opinion that trailing skirts were veritable germ traps and tliHt their use out of doors ishould be strongly discontinued. It is very difficult to make fash ions conform to rules of com mon sense, but the reasons for abolishing trailing skirts for street wear should be sufficient to appeal effectively to every woman who values her health. Dragging skirts are not neces sary to woman's attractiveness.
