One of tlio largest " stores " in America recently advertised ,* forre.d-haired girls " to take charge of' the luncheon-room. When asked tho reason for this, the. manager replied:— ' ' V ■ ' "Bccause tho red-haired girl is more optimistic, energetic,' and adaptable .than, any other kind of • girir;' She; is * generally, -gifted with a clear complexion) and is always the piefcuro of neatness. ' " Jso ono ever heard of a lazy, red-haired girl. She-^quick-witted'and cheerful, and all- men particularly appreciate these qualities. It is an indisputable fact that 300 men out. of 103(j,wil] turn to look at a red-haired girl, whili/prie with brown or golden tresses willgo. brfunhoticed.' "I advertised for red r haired girls because I firmly .Believe they are moro likely to have tho characteristics wo consider valuable than girls, with hair, of any other colour."— < " Liverpool Fast."' •' ;
Tho afternoon tea. was' apparently devised for tho cspeujal 'benofit'of women-who cannot afford to' speivJ much money in entertaining. If hospitablo 'inclinations and 'the Amount of one's income always went hand in hand, it would be a simple thing to invito our. friends to our homes. .Often, however, it is the. woman who desires most earnestly to show, hbspitivlity who has to be so careful in managing hor expenses that there seems to bo no.. 'money left for parties after the "bills havo.-been paid.—Marion Harland.
