ple as she likes. but there are some laws
she must observe as strictly and with
as much force as those of the Modes and

She must not bake what ought to he
roasted. nor serve a hllet in such a con

mustache feels that every time he passes
his napkin to his mouth he is rsking the
destruction Of the pride of his life.
She must not count the sweets as Of
the greatest importance, nor should she

interested in anything except serving;

She should see that her coffee Is as

And when the successful dinner is

dose of announcements medicine al

woman who is past mistress in the art
