About the manner of serving their

fancies. In one case a woman fatty
refused to take her beef tea unless

cut In the shape of diamonds, while
in another II is always necessary to
serve the food IN blue bowl. for out
of nothing else whatever would she take

A boy who was attacked with scarlet
fever showed great disinclination to
take his food. but finally agreed to swal-
low what was necessary, provided he
was fed in the following way: The,
beef tea, or whatever was to be given
him, was put into a silver teapot, the
spout was placed in his mouth, and In
this manner the food was poured down
his throat.

DONT'S FOR THE SURF GIRL.

What Not 70 Do when You Go co the
seashore.
The st. Louis Republic offers some
useful suggestions to girls who bathe
at the seaside:
Don't wear conspicuous bathing
suit
Don't loiter about the sands In
your bathing suit; go directly into the
water.
Don't sit IN the sand in a wet bath
sng suit with a man similarly attired.
Don't battle with strange men; the
etiquette of introduction IN just Ms
strict in the water ns In the drawing
room.
Don't loiter about the bathhouse cor
ridois; a woman in wet bathing cos
tune is not thing OF beauty.
Don't wash the salt out of your hair
under the pump with the assistance OF
half n dozen men.
Don't imagine that even the Venus do
Milo could loolr pretty with her wet
hair hanging down her back.
Don't talk from one bathing house
to another, and don't report progress
of your toilet to your girl chum.
Don't encourage men to loiter out
side your clearinghouse waiting for
your temperance.
Don't dry your hair on the beach, but
twist IL in knot, and returning to your
hotel dry it on an upper balcony.
Don't go In to the cafe after your
bath and take cocktail.
