Boys, when you choose a wife look out
for these two or three things: Is her hair
nice, sweet and kissable looking? How
few girls have kissable hair. Are her
and what about the inside edge of the
white skirt? Oh, dear, yes; you are sure
to see it some ~time-whcn she steps into a
car or out of an omnibus. When she gives
you n letter to: "Just post this for me-"
is it stamped? Oh, but girls are unscrupu-
lou about stamps! Is she on time and
with gloves on for the theater or concert
to which you take her? How about the
lace in the neck OF the dress? Oh, you
want to notice these things when you
think of marrying.

Alas for the song that the siren sang
When she whispered soft of your nice

For reasons apparent enough to see,

pattern, characteristics Of the place in
which it is bought, can be found, so
much the better; for instance, in the
Pennsylvania oil regions teaspoons may
be found with an oil derrick for their
decoration. In the city of Washington
spoons may be found with the cut of the
capitol in the bowl or on the handle.
Single spoons also make a very pretty
Christmas, birthday or Easter present,
if sent to a friend residing in another
city from which you live. The prettiest
way for marking is to have the lame Of
the city engraved ~diagonally in the
bowl Of the spoon, so when taken in the
right hand the name is distinctly seen;
this often furnishes a topic for a Ian
gushing conversation, and prevents
dullness. The year should be marked
on the handle of the spoon-perhaps on
the under side. This custom of col
lecting spoons is making inroads upon
another fashionable fad, the collecting
of friendship rings or bracelets, for this
later one is really so very serviceable a
reminder of travels and places of inter
est, and n can have spoons and spoons
and still find use for nor spoons.
Spoon collections, though quite a new
idea, already contain some note worthy
curiosities. At a tea given in New
York this winter, the Russian tea tum-
bier, with silver frames, were supplied
with Russian teaspoons from Moscow,
and st. Petersburg, and from far
Siberian cities, both modern and
barbaric in design, and yet har-
monious in their %splendor. No two
were of the same pattern, OF of quite
the same period, and many had a wealth
Of curious detail work in their de-
signs.

spoons is made of q piece of chamois

A Delicious Relish for and In
formal PARTIES.
These are q delicious little relish and
can be made from the veriest tritle Of
cold fowl. Cut small two parts of cold
chicken and one of tongue or ham. To
q quarter Of a pound of this mixture
add three tablespoonful Of some good
meat gravy and a little curry paste or
powder. If the sauce was not thickened
add a teaspoonful of flour wet with
cold water or stock to give it con
sistency. Simmer for a few minutes
and stand back while you cut slices of
stale bread about q quarter of an inch
thick, stamping them with a round cut
ter the size of q silver dollar. Fry
them by immersion in boiling fat, lift
out with a colander dipper and drain
quickly on paper. Spread each of these
with the meat mixture rather thickly,
piling one on top of the other. Allow
three or four for each person. They
make a nice separate course or a side
dish. Sometimes these circles of bread
are cut slightly larger and two are
placed together, with the meat be-
tween, and on top n ball of mixed but
ter and grated cheese about the size OF
a hickory nut. They are then set in the
oven for five minutes to allow the but
ter and cheese 10 melt through

of the spoon, on each side of the spoon.
Tack q strap of the chamois about an

slip the handle of the spoon, turn over
the flap at each side and then roll up
