Books for the Library
 In the House Beautiful.

The book committee of the hospital ba- zaar has made an appeal for books to be sold in the library of the House Beauti- ful. Almost every book case has dupli- cate volumes which the owner can spare, or else a book that has been read and put aside without any particular regret although it might prove very intertaining to another person. Such books would be gratefully accepted. All volumes not sold at the bazaar will be placed in the library at the hospital.
 It is thought that if the books are au- tographed interest will be added to them as a gift, but in this event it will be bet ter for the name of the donor to be written in pencil.
 Books may be sent to Mrs. R. s. Mum ger, Mrs. Stonewall Jackson Cole, Mrs w. s. Brown and Mrs. Edward Kernan Campbell.
