the busy housekeeper comes OUT 70 cnat
|lwith you. writes Ruth Ashmore 81
Small Faults of Summer~Time" in the
June Ladies Home Journal Instead
of telling you of the things in which she
| would be interested, of some OF the great
| sights of the city, you explain to her how
| little used you are TO country life ard
| how tiresome you find it. Surely this IS
| not much of an incentive, as far as she
is concerned. towards adding to your
| pleasure. Overdressed, disagreeable IN
| your manners. you cannot expect to be
/ popular, and yet you wonder at the en-
| joynent that your friend is finding in the
| place which you refer to as this horrio,
| disagreeable hole.
SUNDAY comes, and with it an invita-
ton to go to church. Again you make
| the mistake Of overdressing. In church
you stare at the congregation, ana are ps
no means polite to the clergyman ana
pay but little attention to the sermon
| When you go out, following the country
| fashion. the neighbors all stand for a nj
| lie chat. and some of the young men ask
| to be Introduced to you. Then you make
yourself agreeable, and being harmed by
the good manners that you have the poi
lev to assume for the time being, they ASK
| permission to call on you. In a snort time
,.a,,, callers appear. AS it is early even
inc the yeranda is filled with the other
| neople staying in the house, but instead
| of Introducing the young men to the other
GIRLS. and forming q jolly party for the
evening YOU take them off IN a corner,
devote yourself to entertaining them, and
exnress the wonder audibly, Why people,
when they see that other people wish to
be alone, do not leave them alone.

For a home wedding the last and most
| artistic touch of festivity centers in the
| bridescake the cutting thereof
The cutting has a drawback.
If the cake is as rich as it becomes a
bridescake to be, the cutters are apt to
have fingers slightly greasy, and a
| thought sticky when they are through.
But that keeps no young woman from
trying her fate by it's auguries.
Nevertheless she would try it with
better grace if she could manage to do
it without detriment to her gloves, or
| soiling the tips of her dainty fingers.

Most of us are familiar with the fact
that onions as an article of diet are sooth-
ing to the nerves. and thus are quietlng
and refreshing to the whole system. Not
withstalding the good qualities of this
vegetable, II is rarely seen upon ouT
tables. Beefsteak and onions on a rainy
day in the country, or when camping out,
or, perhaps a few tiny ones cut up with
cucumbers, are all my lady has hitherto
allowed to appear on her table. Fashion

in hand. however, and proclaims it good
