SEALlNG-WAX LANGUAGE.
Chocolate for Dinner Invitations, Brown
for Rejected Lovers.

Chocolate for Dinner Invitations, Brown
for Rejected Lovers.
In Europe, and especially in France,
there is among fashionable people q
species of code in the use of sealing
wax. The white article is used for
communication relating to weddings,
black for mourning correspondence,
violet for expressions of sympathy,
chocolate for invitations to dinner, red
for businessletters ruby for the billets-
doux of engaged lovers, green for
lovers not yet affianced and brown for
refusals'of offers of marriage.
Blue symbolizes constancy, yellow
sealing wax jealousy, and pale green
reproaches.
Schoolgirls seal their letters with
pink wax, and intimate friends use
gray.
The use of sealing wax is exceeding
ly ancient. 1t was not, however, until
the reign of King Louis XIII. OF
France that it became the fashion
among the higher classes of Europe.
The Oldest known recipe for making
sealing wax was published in Augs-
burg in 1879, and prescribed almost the
same ingredients as those now en-
ployed.
The use of blue wax was formerly
restricted to royalty, superhuous
provision owing to the difficulty of inn
parting this color to sealing wax, for
the reason that vegetable dyes when
united with wax become greenish.

ANTEDATEs THE PILGRIMS.


Our Thanksgiving Day Really Had Its
England.
1t is sometimes claimed that Thanks
giving day is exclusively an American
institution, all of which is not wholly
true. Long eetore the Pilgrim Fathers
braved the storms of the Atlantic in
the memorable year 1920 the land
from which they came had made much
of the ingathering of the harvest
The Harvest Home celebrations of Mer-
RE England were occasions not to be
dispised. The churches were crowded
with worshipers, the finest specimens
of the produce of the fields were
heaped about the altar and the day be-
gan by the recognition of the Divine
goodness that had made the land to
bring forth abundantly, that had
clothed the hills with flocks and made
the valleys smile with golden corn.
Then came the feastings and the mer.
rymaling, the music and the dancing.
All the land was glad and grateful.
The spirit of the Harvest Home" was
in the fathers and founders of the
great republic. They believed in God
with belief that was strong enough
to inspire their motives and govern all
their life. They wrote His name in
broad bold characters on Plymouth
Rock, and laid the foundations of this
great empire in the fear and faith of
Him. Out of all this sprung our ma
tional institution of Thanksgiving
day; the form of which changes with
other changing elements; but the spirit
of which we may we'll hope will never
die,-Saturday Evening Herald.

Market Girls of Paris.

Some lovely types of animal beauty
may be found among the dairy, fruit
and salad booths of the great Central
market of Paris. Here is where artists,
sculpturers, glass painters and illus.
traitors go for national types and ma
tive beauty. The young women are
always bare-headed and brown as nuts
but they have coquetry of their own
that is often irresistible. Nothing but
satin could compare with the gloss they
get on their bair. Like Carmen, they
have an eye for colors. They wear the
toughest of dresses, but under the aver
age is custom-made corset. And such
figures! Most of the collars are turned
in, and the V-shaped corsage, finished
with a poise or knot of green, must be
seen to be appreciated. Every motion
is grace, every article-even the tinfoil
lozenge of cheese, the twin artichokes
of red buttons in their heads, the peach
in a green leaf la Venus in her shell

BAG FOR NEWSPAPERS.
SO Simple That Any Ingenious Woman
Can Make One.

The pretty pocket illustrated re-
sembles huge envelope in appearance,
the flap serving to preserve the con-
tents from the dust, which, as everybody
knows, is very apt to collect among un.
bound papers. For the foundation OF
the pocket, cut piece Of buckram to
seventeen inches in width and twenty
one inches in length. Cut off the cor
ners at one end to the depth Of seven
inches to shape the flap, and fold up
six inches at the other end, to make
| the pocket.
Now prepare the cover Colored
linen is good material to use, being
both pretty and durable, but 1t is quite
possible to make charming case Of
coarse canvas, embroidered in cross
stitch with a thick make of cotton.
Cut the linen the same shape as the
buclkram, but half an inch larger all
round.
If white or colored flax thread Is used
for this purpose there are many Of the
Mountmellick stitches which would
have very good effect-coral stitch,
for instance, would serve for outlines,
Indian filling for the leaves, and
feather-stitch for the stems. The let
ters may be traced out with fine cord.
Another plan is to paint the design and
to outline it with gold.
The decorated linen should then be
stretched over the buckram which Is
next lined with sateen, or something
of the sort, to suit the color of the
linen. Bring the raw edges Of the
lining over to tho right side of the
pouch and sew them down. Sew up

"Well, dcclarel' exclaimed lady
npon entering one of the large theaters
IN New York city. "That's something
would never do" The that" in
question referred to rather unique
custom which is rapidly coming into
vogue in this ever-progressiye country.
In some large cities there are thea
ters which give continuous perform
ances from noon to eleven p. m. Any
person paying for seat can occupy it
as long as he or she chooses, and no eff
forts are spared to render the audience
entirely comfortable. Refreshments
are close at hand, and as the enter
iainment is of the light vaudeville
order, with the scenes constantly
changing, these play houses have come
TO be popular resorts for all classes.
But soon after opening, one gre at
drawback was discovered. Mothers
and nurses with infants of all ages and
temperaments 1ocked to the theaters,
and confusion instantly cnsued. In the
midst of the most thrilling scene
where the prima donna touched her
highest note, a dozen youngsters from
all parts of the auditorium would Sc,
up a shrill and discordant chorus OF
walls. OF course, the aspiring infants
were quickly hustled out by sundry
ushers and supes, followed by humili-
hted mothers or maids.
Nevertheless the number of these
habitues seemed to increase, and the
proprietors were confronted with the
necessity of meeting the difficulty. Ex-
ira rooms were fitted up, which served

Several distant relations were in

Something About Hosiery,

4 cotton stocking is preferred by
many women to a Isle thread, as the
twist of the thread in the Isle ones
irritates the soles of the feet. Dark
blue and black stockings are liked for
street wear, except whore tan shoes
are worn, aud then, of course, the
stockings match the shoes. The navy
blue stocking is usually chosen by
those who find that the dye from a
black stocking affects their skin. This
is by no means common, but the very
minute it is discovered one should
cease wearing the black and select an
other color, or else wear white, for one
never knows to what extent skin dis
orier may go. With gray or scarlet

chosen to match, and these may be got
