Comfortable Guest Rooms.

You must have small bookcase in your
guest room and one or two favorite pic
lures, not the derelicts which usually do
duty.
A table at the bedside is, of course, in
dispensable. On it there should be (al-
ways in working order), says the ''Phila-
delphia Ledger" candlestick and match
es, water bottle and glass, and a jar Of
crackers.
Sometimes in country house these
seeming trifes are placed, as a matter of
course, in the visitors room. One feels
at once that hospitality there means
home, and that everything else win match
that little table. How often one hungers,
and is too shy to say so, or feels "a sink

been anticipated. and that tender fore

A eDinner of Heads.v

People who entertain a good deal ara
generally pleased to hear of novelties in
the way of entertainments that can be
arranged for moderate-sized gatherings,
and the latest thing in tho way of social
novelties which London has heard of Is
called a dinner of heads says the Lon
don correspondent of the Philadelphia
Inquirer"
The idea originated in high society in
Rome, and has taken firm hold in the
social world here, where it has been car
ried out on several recent occasions. The
scheme is for the diners to wear headgear
either fantastic or historical, and the
effect OF the various styles on different
types of beauty is stunning.
Imagine the petite Countess of Essex

coquettish gilt wicker basket such as at
the original dinner of heads" was worn
by the Princess di Solofra in Rome. Ii

speak with spring flowers, adorned with
pearls, mixed with beautiful hair flowing
over the shoulders; a perfectly novel idea,
inspired by an antique fresco of a feast

The Ruling Passion.

The rector of suburban church was
approached the other day, says the New
York Commercial Advertiser" by a
woman who said she desired TO rent a
seat in a pew nearest the door OF his
church. The rector responded that the
seats in that pew were all free and that
she was at liberty to occupy any one of
them. But she persisted, saying that she
desired to have t for her own.
Being somewhat curious as to her rea-
son, the clergyman said: But, madam,
tell me why you wish to sit so far bach" ;"
After some hesitancy she responded that
she simply couldn't bear to have anyone
"sit behind her.
Yet you will be sitting behind others,
who, perhaps. feel the same way" said
the rector, laughingly.

woman earnestly, but you know L have

Do women Keep Secrets,

There is an old fable that concerns the
inability of a woman to keep e. secret.
But some women do keep secrets, pro-
vided they are mems. 1t is a noticeable
fact that woman viii seldom betray the
confidence placed in her by q man. She
feels little compunctlon in giving away
the secrets her girl friends tell her. but
she excuses herself by saying that she
knows some one will tell it and she might
as well have whatever eclat attaches to
being the first to break the news. She is
profoundly mum, generally speaking.

though.
Some persons who have noticed this are
cruel enough to hint that she fears to

picion. She respects man confidence

kind To the average man who is not too
sick to be impressed by his surroundings,
this hgure of mechanical perfection is
more disturbing than would be a tipsy
coal-heaver in the sick chamber
So perfect a creature spoils all a mans
pleasure in sickness. He can make no
appeal to her sympathy-cannot plead for
delay when the nauseous dose is due, or
conduct himself like a spoiled child,
which Is one of the compensations of ILL
ness to a man. Perhaps he may be dis
appointed, too. When a trained nurse is
suggested to the inexperienced male he
may have visions of young woman with
hGman qualities whose gentle hand will
smooth the pElow and cool the fevered
brow, and that sort of sentimental thing.
Only observant and experienced wives
know how sentimental the most practical
of men-even bank president-may be
after business hours. When the male pa
tient finds himself in the hands of self
contained and unimpressionabIe young
woman, as exact and methodical and un-
sympathetic as machine and as dead TO

be as oppressive as was the red-nosed, fat
old woman nurse who preceded her.

Notions About Nurses.

In an address to a medical society in

the disposition of American doctors TO
avail themselves of improvements which
relieve the profession of much of its for
mer drudgeTy and cares. Here long pre-
scriptions are seldom written since it is
practicable to prescribe palatable tablets
which offer the best of combinations. BY
this system the danger of mistakes on
the part of the physician and blunders
by apothecaries is greatly reduced Dan
