owner and the people would think they
were patronizing a Mormon store"

Courting in Holland.

Holland is place where primitive GUS
toms abound, says Pearson Weekly.
Traditions are sacredly handed down and
observed, and this veneration for ancient
things has kept alive in the country what
are known as courting Sundays. Through
out Holland the four Sundays of November
are kept as fete days. They are named
severally Review, Decision, Purchase and
Possession Sundays. On Review Sunday
every one goes to church, and after service
there is church parade, when all the
young men and maidens look at each other,
but forbear speaking. On Decision Sun
day each would benedict approaches the
maiden of his choice with ceremonious
bow, and from her response judges whether
he is acceptable as suiter or not. On
Purchase Sunday the consent of parents
and guardians is sought, if the wooing
during the week has been happy Pos
s ,>son Sunday witnesses the first appear
ance of the various lovers before the world
as actual or prospective brides and bride

The Clever Bridesmaid.

1t is wise bride who chooses amone
her maids one who can write clever notes.
For wedding presents must be acknowl-
edged, not only promptly, but with per-
sonal touch in the note, and a fashionable
bride would need a private secretary not
only with an iron hand, but over it vel
vet glove of graciousness. This combina-
ton is not easy to find, but a friend may
have it, and to lose her services is mis-
take too grave to be omitted by the think
ing.
Consequently such girl is asked to be
bridesmaid, and then, on the old general
prin pie that one gets nothing without
giving something, she is pretty apt to be
asked if she won t help write notes of ac-
acknowledgement of the presents. And the
best part of it all is that she Is always
enormously pleased at being asked. Not
only is the request demonstration OF
friendship, but it is a subtle tribute to her
pen about which only the most hardened
could be callous.

Have You a Pretty Bedroom ?

Now that pretty and artistic wall paper
can be bought so inexpensively there is nc
excuse for not having our rooms always
bright and fresh looking.
We are all unconsciously affected by oul
surroundings, although we may not think
much about them, and should, therefore,
endeavor to have everything about us as
cheerful and artistic as possible.
The size and aspect of the room should
be considered.
Warm rooms looking south should have
a paper of a cool shade, while those of a
northerly aspect require something warmer
in coloring.
Large patterned papers should not be
hung in small room or it will appear
smaller.
A dado or frieze also has the same ef-
feet, while perpendicular patterns add to
the apparent height of ROOM
A pretty scheme for bedroom would
be to have pale pink paper of chrysanthe
mum design--one with "a satin stripe woul
be charming plain, soft green wool c r
pet with mating border, curtains Of .Feen
linen, edged with torchon lace, wi h un-
dercurtains of cream madras muslin fixed
to the lower half of the window, caught
back halfway down by narrow ribbon, the
edges of the curtains to be edged with cot
ton ball fringe.
The green linen might be used for the
toilet covers and mantel drapery.
IF there are hangings to the bed, they
might be of green lined with pink, or the
toilet covers and bedspread might be Of
white linen embroidered in pink
Green stained furniture would look wei
in this room, with pink tiles to the wash
stand and cream ware.

tearing hole foot square in his dress
and cried because he had not had any fun.

will then want 1000 bundles; more he did
