.swhat,s In n Name.-

II really believe if man has Chris
tian name that is easily handled he Is bet
ter liked some one remarked. IF fel-
low is called Smith or Jones he is not
nearly so popular as if he is Bobby or
Jack or Jim to his friends. There are
some names that never seem to come easy
to say, so the surname is used instead.
and in consequence there is never much
familiarity. and consequently liking. felt
for the bearer of it. When man is really
too likable for his name, and his popular
ity seeks for varied expressions in the
methods of address. he is sure TO have
some nickname by which he is generally
known; but for shy chap to have
mouthful of name IS fatal. People may
like him, but they do not become inti-
mate with him, SO that in the end the
name actually affects his character.
II really think parents should consider
this in giving names to their boys and IT,
as so often is the case. family names are
given for Christian names. some diminu-
tion should be started at home by which,
later on. he may be known TO the world. ..

Park these crisp. bright mornings may
see a trim little figure on a dark horse
cantering about the bride path. 1t Is
Maude Adams, whose clever acting of La

Lady Babbie is great lover of animals.
There Is a rumor, which everybody

Maude Adams is privately married. Her

which Mr.. DAILY previously used with Ada

Bachelors as Hosts.

At the present time some of the very
pleasantest of entertainments are given
by bachelor hosts. \ few years ago
bachelors occasionally gave n dinner
party or a ball, and then it was generally
there was very little of the informal sort
of entertaining by bachelors which is so
pleasant a feature of society at the pres
ent time.
Now almost all bachelors who are so
disposed invite their lady friends and ae-
quaintances to some sort OF entertain
ment, to afternoon tea, to supper after
the theater or to luncheon.
The reason that bachelors now enter
tain so much more than formerly is that
it is no longer considered necessary that
they should be eountenanced and sup
ported by sister, aunt or other relative
when they desire to entertain ladies. 1t
is now quite understood that at a bach
elor's entertainment a hostess is super
fiuous, which is really the case, for from
boyhood schoolboys are trained in the
duties of hosts. Probably you have some
times enjoyed the hospitality of some
young Yale boy relative at luncheon on
the Fourth of July and have also been
entertained at Harvard or Princeton at
luncheon or tea in the rooms of AN un-
dergraduate friend and thus you have
seen for yourself what charming hosts
young varsity men make Young subai-
terms in the army entertain ladies Just in
the same way. and thus at the present
time, from boyhood to middle age, BACH
elors continue to play the part of host
to those ladies at whose houses they re-
ceive hospitality or for whom they feel
friendship.
In. fact, Mrs. Grundy's ideas have
changed with the times. and she would
not advise a wifeless man to trouble a
lady to help him entertain his guests un-
less it should happen that that man were

BY late afternoon all the photographs
had been soaked OFF the cards. and six
were transferred TO crystals. The next
day they were made transparent and
were painted, and the third day the Con-
necticut girl took them to the dealer. who
accepted two and rejected the others be-
cause of the air bubbles which left little
white points in the pictures.
The coloring Is excellent" the girl was
told, but you will have to remount the

paint in any background"
Back they went with the maiden to her
home and were done over. The next time
one-half of her pictures were accepted,
and now about nine out of each dozen are
taken when first submitted. This, girl
manages to make all the pin money she
really needs by working steadily every
morning-as steadily as If she were en-
ployed in teaching school or in an office in
the city. She thinks, however, that eight
or nine dozen per week can be finished
acceptably only where two or more mem
bers of a family are engaged from early
morning straight through the day until

Marking Table Linen.

A pretty method of marking your table
linen very simply is by embroidering
your initial about three inches long in the
corner. The marking should be done in
cross stitch, very evenly and smoothly.
If you can really be sure of great care
being used in washing, colored fax
thread may be used to work the initial
such as pale green, or blue, or yellow, but
If, on the other hand, an ordinary laun-
dress washes them, you should use only
white, otherwise the colors may run and
spoil the pretty effect on the linen. %

FRUIT TREE B0RERS.
A obstacle to successful Hortieui-
tRre THAT Can Be Overcome onis
by Constant Vigilance.

Among the many pests with when
the horticnlturist must contend are the
two large families of borers, which are
divided In a general way into the round
aeaded and the fiat-headed borers. The
hitter usually attack only those trees
fftat have been from some cause re-
dueed in vitality, but they are liable to
enter the trunk anywhere along IFS en-
tire length. The roand-headed oerefs,
on the other hand, says the Indicator
seem to prefer vigorous trees and enter
near the ground only and they often
kill the trees outright IN short time.
Thew are sometimes as much as three
years in maturing, and instances have
been known where the round-headed
borer has emerged from wood after il
had been made up into furniture. Bor-
ers attack the apple, the peach, the
pear. the cherry and other fruit trees
as we'll as many forest trees, and are
difficult to get rid of except by regular
hunting to dig out and destroy them,
When the borer IS working on trees Its
presence can usually be detected by the
casts or sawdust about the tree, and IN
the peach there is the additional sign
which the emulation Of gum affords.
The deposit of eggs may be in a great
measure prevented by applying a coat
of soft soap and washing soda to the
trunks early in June and again in July
and a deposit of ashes or air-slacked
lime around the tree in May is also help
full. To detect those that effect an en-
trance August Is the best time, as 1t
Is then that the fresh casting are most
plainly visible. At this season the or
ehardist should arm himself with a
piece of flexible wire that is yielding
enough to follow the burrowing of the
borer. and hunt everyone and destroy it.
The grub is not difficult to reach the
first and second seasons. but after that,
owing to the turns made in the bur.
rows, IS harder to get at. Young or
ehards are in most danger, while the
bark IS thin, but if care is taken to keep
taem free of the pest there is not much
danger to the trees when they become
mature. Nursery stock if neglected is
almost sure to be attacked, and buyers
Of stock should always examine It for
borers before planting. The borer may

TIMELY SUGGESTIONS.
what PRESENTATIONS Are Necessary for
Country Roads Before Ihey hE

In a recent article on Things to be

many people seem to think that any
thing thar IS to be covered up does not

less one reason why it is so difficult to
get roads properly drained.
He then goes on to consider what
preparations are necessary for per-
manent country roads before they re-
ceive the stone, OF other material, and
offers the following suggestions:
.The first thing to do is to employ
come competent man to run levels over
the entire length of the road intended
for improvement, and taking levels at
the sides frequently enough to ind
drainage at every available place along
the line Of the proposed road. Then
carefully drawn profile should be made,
efter which the grade Vine of the road
should be carefully studied and drawn
on the profile. If the ground will admit
of it without too much expense, long
stretches of the same rate Of grade
should be avoided, as it Is too hard on
the muscles of the draft animals when
hauling a heavy load, as it admits Of
constant and severe strain on them. as
can be easily seen by the trembling Of
the muscles after pull over these
grades. \ frequent change in the
grades allows some rest on the various
parts of the muscles.
