count where they are to live. whether a
suburban villa or a tiny apartment in

were tables, chairs. corner cupboards
and sofas, inlaid and carved or in satin
wood, quite enough to furnish a draw

A Unique Entertainment.

A doll luncheon. given in a Western
city. and participated in by twenty
young women, had in it much OF fun
and novelty. All the guests came dress
ed as dolls, prizes being awarded for
the best representations. The young
woman who took the first prize deserved
II, without doubt. She had herself done
up in tissue-paper. was put in a large
pasteboard box, and was delivered by
express at the house at the luncheon
hour, addressed 10 the hostess. During
the unwinding process in the parlor
she made no sign, and when head, arms
feet. and body had been relieved of the
enfolding paper, a perfect French bebe
was revealed, who said Papa" and
Mamma in a nice little machinery
voice, and who stepped out OF the box
and across the floor with the mincing
gait Of walking doll. All sorts and
conditions Of dolls were there-Chinest.

and nurse dolls. and a clever imitation

Making Room for Books.

The rooms Of the modern house are
frequently hard put to it to harbor
the modern book supply, and practical
architects are learning to take advan-
tage Of every opening for this purpose.
The wicker chair with pockets Tor
magazines is now a familiar article OF
summer furniture.
Book tables and book footstools and
book settees are now sold under these
names. and very handy little pieces
many Of them are.
BY way Of economizing space some Of
the smaller tables are built with top
arranged as a chessboaf3. the lower
shelves being open for books and mag
azines.
A new library table has book shelves
inserted where the rather useless draw
ers for writing paper, ct cetera. are
usually TO be found
Some specially built settees have book
cases at either end, If the seat Is dou-
bic. the space devoted to books is lar
from incOnsiderable.
Or a seat placed in an alcove may
have built-in book case filling the
space above IL at the back
The coy seats Of bay windows in
stead Of being made to do duty as chests
for odds and ends about the room can
serve as book shelves. accommodating
ones pet volumes.

Use Youc Fngers.

1t is sometimes hard to decide what
one may and what one may not eat
from the fingers.
Bread, first Of all. But it should not
be buttered in a broad fat slice and
eaten bite by bite. A small piece OF
bread. preferably not more than enough
for mOuthful. should be broken from
the bread or biscuit, buttered and trans
ferred with the fingers to the mouth.
Then crackers. celery. olives. pickles
Of the small varieties radishes and
bonbons are eaten with the fingers.
Cake Is eaten with the fork or Is
broken and eaten like bread.
Corn on the cob may be eaten from
the fingers. II Is with corn as with
oranges; one never feels quite at his
best eating either. except in the pri-
Yacy OF his apartment.
Authorities are constantly warning
against eating chicken. game and like
foods from the fingers. Chicken IS
eaten from the fingers, but it is inele-
CANT.
