THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mother S ignorance; or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suffer, ="
and young women are SO taught.
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs Pinkham and secure
the most Efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became so poor that L
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. l was also troubled
with irregularity of menses. L was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who is firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia F. Pinkham' S
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as l
ever was. have gained flesh and have
good color. l am completely cured OF
irregularity.

Linen showers is rather an odd name
to give to a young ladies' luncheon. but
linen showers they are, and the latest fad
The luncheon is given usually by some
married friend of an engaged girl. Each
guest brings a piece of linen, a dolly, SER
viette or center piece, which is presented
to the girl in whose honor the luncheon Is
given.
These are only small tokens and not 70
be taken in lieu of the wedding present
Frequently girls classmates or intimate
friends join together and make up a set
of doilies or napkins, which the happy
wife will cherish as a lasting souvenir Of
her girl friends.
The first linen shower was given by
lady VINO tied filmy linen handkerchief
to each of her name cards. all being daint-
lily embroidered with the recipients name
in running script. She also gave series
of teas from which each guest was ex-
pected, like the late George w. Childs'
visitors, to carry her cup and saucer home
with her lin memory of the day"
A handsome wedding present which, by
little strenth of imagination, might come
under this head, is made by several of a
girls friends. Heavy linen, such as is used
for sheets, is bought for bedspread;
large. snowy design is stamped out, rum
ming toward the center from the corners.
Each friend is asked to work a certain
amount until the spread is finished. This
is particular instance where many
hands make light work. Six or eight
can work at the same time, and the pat
tern is so large il is quickly finished.
Thimble bees are given morning or after
noon, as suits the hotess' convenience
The invitation is simply a calling card
bearing the date and hour and the word
''Thimble" in the corner. This means that
the gathering is a new fashioned sewing
bee.
Each girl brings her own fancy work
and it is needless to say, one and all en-
deavor to have a new stitch or design to
exhibit. At an afternoon function. tea IS

site each number for the name to be in
serted. The person guessing correctly the
greatest number of names was to receive
a handsome prize
Among the fifty portraits were those of
Gen. Miles, Admiral Dewey. Henri Roche
fort, Capt. Dreyfus, Kaiser Wilhelm, Clara
Barton, Jean de Reszke, Richard Mans
field, Mrs. John Jacob Astor, Sara Bern
hardt, Sir Herbert Kitchener Queen VIII
helmina, Mrs. Kendall and Henrik Ibsen.
In choosing the pictures preference was
not given to any particular country or pro-
fession, but it was understood that only
living celebrities were in the list.
1t was agreed that guests were not to
consult together in regard to names, but
each was to make his or her own guesseS
without aid or suggestion from others.
Sometimes when half dozen people had
been gathered for quite a while around the
picture of a particularly elusive celebrity,
the name would suggest itself to one of
the young ladies, who would triumphantly
write it down on her card and then pass
on to the next picture. leaving the laugh
