What to Eat for August has, among
other interesting matter, an account of
the dinner which Mrs. May Wright Sewall
gave recently for the crown prince of
China. during his stay in Indianapolis.
Mrs. SewaH's dinner was notable, for at
the close the hostess was asked to select
an American and Chinese name for the
daughter of the crown prince. The child
was born after her fathers departure
from China and will not be named until
his return. Not only was Mrs. Sewall
emperor of China, but the little princess
was enrolled as an honorary member of
her school.

noted in history. were notable affairs
Some of them have been reproduced
by great actresses in historical plays.

Silk. lace, yelling. net. and once again
chiffon. are 10 be worn for afternoon
and house gowns. Both long and short
coats, the former. however, more in
the nature OF wraps than when made
to wear with a skirt to match, will be
fashionable.
Muslns and thin materials OF all
kinds will be most nOticeably popular
and an immense amount Of embroidery
and lace and p1ssementerie will be
found necessary to the success OF the
so-called simple little muslin frOck.
Shirt-waist suits are again to be fash.
ionable. and made in heavy as we'll as
light materials, but these are very
much more elaborate than they have
been; and it will be found necessary
to have a lining. and often a boned
one, in most Of these waists.
The skirts will be worn short and
long-the short skirts for street wear
and also for morning wear I'm the
country-but no smart gown will be
made with a short skirt. Veilings.
silks, and all such materials, and more
elaborate cloth gowns as well, will all
have trained skirts There is a great
attempt being made to have skirts
very full, gathered and shirred on the
hips, pleated, and in fact. constructed
in such a way as TO use just as much
material as possible; but as yet the
question is not definitely settled as to
whether this full skirt will be received
with enough enthusiasm TO make it
desirable one TO invest in for ali the
gowns in an outfit.-IIarper5 Bazar.

AN IDEAL GUEST.

A busy housewife to whose home in
the course Of the year come all sorts Of
company. recently had an ideal visitor
She was never "under-foo when the
hostess was at work and she seemed to
have some magic charm that drew all
unneeded members Of the family away
from the scene of labor. If there was
an errand TO be done and the children
were in school, she always .ueedcd a
walk"
She was never bustling around the
house, playing the piano, or netting
the wee ones to frolic while the
hostess rested But when the sesta
was over and the mother sat down
with mendinC or sewing, the guest was
on hand. fresh and merry with inter
eSting stories of life in another en-
virOument
She had found the dainty new sofa
pillow that waited for its rufile: and al
she talked she hemstitched. That
completed pillow will always be elo-
quent of the pleasure Of those after
noon chats and of the tact and thought
fulness Of that ideal visitor. The
goodbye to that guest was sincerely
spoken from a full heart. DO come
again. You have been such good com.
pany: and no more trouble than the
birds in the trees. New York Press.

HOW PLANTS GROW.

Mr.. Boyd recently gave technical
description of vegetation and detailed
the relation between water and the
soil. Roots are mouths and leaves the
lungs Of plants, and all food except
carbonic acid gas entered through the
roots and must be solvent So that
water is essential TO the growth of the
plant He spoke OF the element con-
stituting plants. oxygen, hydrogen. nj
trogen and carbon, and told how the
plant secures each. The organic ele-
ments should not be permitted to get
out Of the soil. Leguminous plants in
creased the amount of organic matter
in the soil, and so there should be rota-
ton of crops so that the soil may be re-
plenished. .,.. -

FAILURES WITH PEACHES

It Is believed that failures with
peaches in many sections are due par
TALLY to the fact that the proper varie.
ties for each section OF the country are
not carefully selected. To learn more
on the subject the work Of testing the
varieties has been submitted to the Cx.
pertinent stations. and it is beliey ed
that the result will be very beneficial.
One OF the great difficulties in the way
is that Of procuring varieties true to
name. 1t is seldom that a peach grow
er succeeds in procuring the exact va
rieties ordered, unless he knows from
whom to buy, or has evidence that no
mistake will be made.
