LOS ANCiKLKS. This city has :i man who has lived W years and says he's going to keep rlplit on living for some time. He I Dr. .Tamos Marfin Peebles, physician and author, who remit ly celebrated his ninety-ninth birthday anniversary and lias written a hook on "How to Live u Century and (Irow Old (Jraeefully. He uscrlhes his lon life In large measure to abstinence from eating animal nVsh. Doctor reel des stopped eating meat when !e whs thirty-nine years old. He wrote his hook on the rules of living when he was sixty-two. Other rules he made for himself and which he said he believed had helped him U reach his advanced years Included: -Co to bed every night at 8:,'i0.' Out of bed every morning at 0. Never use tobacco. Never use Intoxicating liquors. Never complain. A Second Solomon LAKH rOHHST, ILL. What type of girl appeals to a wholesome boy? What things do boys object to? What qualities has the Ideal girl? Floyd Itrown, director of the Young Men's Club of Lake Forest, who says he has had lots of experience witn girls, having been engaged three times before he married, answers all these questions. On invitation he spoke to liV) girl students of a fashionable seminary. "Hoys do not like girls who talk loud, chew gum In public, powder their noses or cross their legs in public, or lllrt with other men while under escort." be said. "They like silk stockings and shapely legs, but girls who exhibit these do not make much of a hit. "Paint and iowder may help at times, but a boy likes best the ruddy natural complexion. He likes a girl who snuggles up to him while dancing, but doesn't respect the girl for it. He doesn't care for the clinging vine type. He wants a girl who can cook, who Is economical and thrifty, and who takes nn interest in children; a girl In a clean dress, one with a smile and a pleasant greeting. MI can tell you from my own experiences why some young women do not attract men. There was one who was

N:V VOIIK. Magistrate 'John Kochemlorfcr of this city has be..u to put into effect Ills doctrine that the right kind of punishment for erring husbands will end marital infelicity. Holding that husbands are to blame for seven-eighths of all domestic rows. the magistrate announced that instead of sending them to Jail he would sentence them to any one of ten tasks they might choose. Then, the next convicted husband who was arraigned liefore him for abusing his wife wa ordered to common housework for a week, or go to the workhouse. The choices Magistrate Kochcndorfer allows his prisoners follow: Prepare the family breakfast every morning.

Suspenders in Gotham But Not Chicago

CHICAGO. The artless and touching custom of embroidering a trailing design of forget-me-nots on a pair of suspenders for the young spruce Is the latest wrinkle in New York, but woo to the trouble-maker Win attempts such a thing in Chicago, say State s.reet authorities. The male species ha a perfect right to go back to a primitive and logical method of holding up its con- ; tinuations, elsewhere, if it wants to. !

but it just isn't heing done in Chicago, l'nless, ays H. Young, it h done under cover. "It's like this," s:;hl Mr. Yoimc, "You either wear suspenders and keep your vest on, or you luy what hks like the latest thing in harness. It gMs on under the shirt and it has an equipoise arrangement of straps that tits over jour shoulders and is adjusted oer jour trousers at the sides. Hut not a man under forty will wear them and only 10 per cent of thov over forty. 'As for the suspenders being in fushion this year, and -mbroidercd flowers at that, it jur isn't possible." It was a b.ng tüue ago. s:iy 10 jears.

"Avoid all worry and keep u harmonious mind. Worry Is anions tho worst things In the world. Have a strong will power. Always look for the 'new. Keep calm. On his ninety-ninth birthday anniersary Doctor IVebles walked erect, only occasionally using a cane; his sl;:ht was Kfxxl, although be used spectacles for reading; his hearing . "as K'kmI as ever," and his appetite and digestion he declared excellent. His long white beard and hair gave him a truly venerable appearance. Asked what his plans for the future were, he replied : To live n number f years more and to write at Itast another book. This will be on the progress of Christianity as It Is preached, showing how preachers are leaving hell tire, brimstone, purgatory and many other oldtime dogmas behind." Then he added: "In every marble block there is an angel's form awaiting the sculptor's chisel. God Is good. There Is no absolute evil in the universe, because God made It." Doctor Peebles was born March 23, 181TJ. at YVhitingham, Vt., and was graduated from Oxford academy, Chenango county, New York, in 1SU. He has traveled around the earth five times.

Come to Judgment always losing buttons. Another spooned with everybody. A third swapped boys' letters with other girls. "I knew another girl who was sympathetic, who understood. She was quite attractive. That is what the ideal girl should have: understanding and sympathy. The golden girl is cheerful. She is not an angel; she has plenty of fatdts; but she Is lovable. Sh? is not a reformer. ' She is a good listener. She has self-respect. She doesn't have to be pretty, though good looks add a certain charm. She is not a gossip, though everylNxly confides In her. "Always have a bright face and wear a fresh, clean dress for your husband when he comes home. Never let him see you In an untidy kimono and with your hair awry. Take care of the children one hour every day. liny candy and fruit for the wife and children once a week. Stay home one night a week. Take the family out every Sunday to church in the morning aid for a walk in the afternoon. Allow the wife to handle the finances of the family. Start a savings hank neeount. Walt on himself Instead of asking the wife to wait on him. Repeat every day to his yife. nt least once, his marriage vows. Wash the dishes every night. Magistrate Koehendorfer saj-s that few men recognize the daily monotony of a woman's life in keeping a household together on small pay. The men nave some variety even if only going from their homes to their olliees, but the wives are sentenced to monotonous drudgery. "Men who abuse their wives need waking up more than they need Jail," the magistrate expounded. "The average man would be cured iennjinently if he could te set to the tasks to which his wife is committed and thus leant how much less attractive is her day than his," ha. foe maie of the species began dis carding coats on hot d:iys, thus expos !ng tho-e unattractive Items of attire called suspenders. liefere that he used to swelter in the lightest of tweeds and serges with linen waistcoats. Then fellows began to leave off their waistcoat and, although the exposed shirt looked awful at tlrst, the custom te came universal. That was when thn belt came In. and suspenders were put aa for the summer. The later com lag in of the coatless man completed the banishing of suspenders, for mo men. Only lu re and there a tran would continue to wear 'em. because he had to, but at the same time would gird Ms bay window with a belt."

Heavy Black Satin Reversed With : Harding Blue, Affords a Winsome j Two-in-Ont Garment. . j It Is Interesting to note the enthusiasm with which women are greeting the newest wraps. Every week now models are shown In tricotlne. twill cord, nonnandy, bolivüi 4ind velours. To cover one's afternoon gawn there is a delightfully swagger wrap f heavy black satin reversed with Harding blue satin and heavily fringed at the bottom knee deep. The nicest part Is that one may reverse this wrap for evening occasions to the light side, thus making It a sort of two-In-one model, j And the fringe lends graceful ef- , feet, swaying gracefully when the wearer Is In motion. A big collar capes the shoulders aud Is tied in ; front with long sush ends. j Just the thing for motoring Is a brand yew wrap of plaid wool, fringed at the bottom and deeply collared and cuffed in plain matorial. This model wraps itself close about the figure, j

thus insuring warmth and beauty. Among the slender coat wraps there is one in tobacco brown, excellent for street wear, developed In loose wrapMke lines, shirred at the waistline, j;irdled by a narrow belt and pouched here ami there by silk stitehery. For dressy occasions is a coat of gray tricotine, in Tuxedo style, with facing extending from neck to hem. For added attraction the revers are scalloped deeply ami the turn-back cuffs also follow this example. A narrow string girdle Is tied about the hips, giving the low line so fashionable this reason. IMack satin and navy tricotine combine effectively in many top coats for daytime occasions, and in almost every one there is a hint of embroidery that lends a subtle charm all Its own. AN 'OFF-THE-FACE' ROLL BRIM : try . X.. rtr,. Opal blue taffeta is featured in this winsome Moff-the-face" roll-brimmed hatwhich is meeting with favor among the carefully dressed 'women. Crepe de Chine. It is possible now to have suit, blouse and hat of crepe de chine, and the effect for summer and early fall Is good. A cape Is a handy garment to throw over the crepe de chine suit for warmth, if needed. Self-trimmed. The self-trimmed dress is having Its day. Incrustations, appliques, llutlnjrs are all very good. The latter are simply pressed into shape and allowed to fall loose.

MADE - OVER "BARGAIN" GOWNS

Slight Alterations Will Enable the Transformation Where There Are Objectionable Features. Quite frequently shops offer excellent values In dresses that are extreme in style or that have some feature about them that blocks their sale. One's first impulse is to reject such a .in lelt but exiKrlence has taught one canny shopper that models of this tyje are possible after they have been revised at home or by a reliable tailor or seamstress. An mnVcoxiIng neck-line, a sleeve that is the wrong length or does not fit well, even the introduction of a conspicuous color, in some way may he altered with gratifying result s. Klimiuntlug objectionable details, a dress with a very full circular skirt proved to be rather a drug on the market at one shop, principally because brilliant green cloth With steel button had Wen inerted at the sides, so that in the swing of the skirt a not too generous display of hosiery would result. The cut of the skirt was extreme enough to give pause, but plus the sjH'etactdar touch of green it w:;s voted ImpossilOe by the vomcn to whom it wn offered, until ilong came a woman with a vision that eou'd ee black satin substituted for the gnen. and the severe renaisance neckline could be softened by opening the fr-nt nt the plain bodice and inserting a V of some Mattering lingerie materia! changes, which, while very slight, altered the entire spirit of the gown.

On this costume the embroidery is no set design; It is scattered everywhere, and the petal-edged panels all aid in making this violet-colored frock delightful and summery. FASHION FRILLS Lavender hats worn with dark dresses are very smart. IJaroche pearls worn on a silken cord are the latest fancy. Canton crepe continues to he the season's most fashionable fabric. Chic, allover embroidery jackets are worn with plain skirts, giving a twofabric effect. Lace-trimmed hats, with cascades of lace off the left and sometimes off both sides, are worn. Felt hats, In white, gray, lavender, tlame and orange are fruit or llower trimmed and much worn. ! (Jinghams, chambrays, organdies and dark dotted Swisses are among the favorite cotton fabrics. - . Illack and navy, with an occasional gray gown, make the sum total of most smart daytime gatherings. White veiling is having a tremendous vogue and usually It Is dotted with variously colored chenille. Coat drosses, the' front draped over to the side and held with one button, are much worn In navy or black cloth. Few hems are straight these days.

J Coiffure hands cVuning down over the forehead and fastening under the hair at the sides have been seen much . lately. Lace has invaded the realm of the purse the outside this time! Afternoon bags, pouch shape, are often fashioned of it. Princess frocks, the seml-tittod kind, are made with shallow neck lines ami without sleeves, and are very smart for evening wear. White Evening Dress. The vogue of the all-white evening dress seems to have come into its own with the late spring. Many beaut'ful all white gowns are to be seen at every evening function of any importance along the north and south shores. Combinations of kitten's-ear crepe and soft laces, canton crepe and chiffon, white chantiily and net, make the most attractive of the all-white effects. IMack wraps of elaborate design generally are worn with the white dresses. terial are voted smart, one might be tempted to select a gown which could be altered by changing the sleeves Of course, any changes one's originality might suggest would be helpful to the woman who to her dismay finds that the model she selected has been selected by her nearest noighWr or her dearest enemy. Lace Cap for Baby. Pretty lace caps for babies are easily made by using white lace allover and drawing in the fullness at the back with ribbon run through a tiny hem. The edges of the bonnet are trimmed with lace nifties and the long strings are made of fine insertion about three inches wide. Senile pretty caps are made from scraps of lace and embroidery of all kinds and shaies, sometimes with three or four different kinds In one cap, edged with narrow rufile of. lace and finished with a pompon of lace or ribbon. Pretty Gifts. A quickly made gift is a branch of foliage painted in the new style with colored silver or gilt paint. Pussy willows or catkins -left over from former years are charmim: slivered. And while one i wielding the paint brush in these new artistic effects one can transform obi bric-a-brac into something smart and new.

WRIGIXYS The Flavor Lasts HAD SOMETHING IN COMMON Lawyer's Sharp Questioning Finally Drew Material Answer From Old Lady on Witness Stand. Philander C. Knox used to tell the story of a Pennsylvania lawyer, known throughout the state for his sharpness, who once met his match in a very unexpected quarter. An old woman was being cross-examined by him as to how the testator had looked when he made a. remark to her about some relative. "I don't remember, lie's been dead three years," she answered, testily. "Do you mean to tell me that your memory Is so bad that you cannot go back three years?" demanded the attorney. The witness was silent. "Did he look anything like me?" the lawyer finally ventured. "Seems to me he did have the same sort of vacant look," responded the old lady. A Pernicious Influence. Frederick had discovered "Treasure Island" the other day, and devoured it in one blissful feast, lasting from breakfast till bedtime, when he was forcibly pried loose from the book. He was obviously in a trance as he undressed, but still Ids demure mamma was not exactly prepared for the variation which he sprang when he came to say his prayers: "Give us this day our daily bread yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of rum!"

He seemed greatly Impressed by the height of the building and the number of floors. One of his little playmates who had been listening attentively finally Inquired: "Did you go away, 'way upstairs?" "No,' said Teddy. "We just went into the tiniest, tiniest little room and stood still and the little room went upstairs."
