A LOVER IF THE WILD

Are YOU lover? Gomez
A lover OF wilding thngs!-
The bees bow, haunting hum
The skyward whirring OF wings;
Murmurs of reed and rush
To the rill adVenturing by;
Out of the underbrush
The cukoos shifting cry;
Bruised sassafras scent;
The sweet-fiag's tonic taste;
The winds cool instrument
Wholly assotled of haste!
would take your hand
And lead you into the wild;
There we should understand
Each like a little child.
And the loving mother-earth,
Wise to the depths OF her loan,
She should cry oW with mirth,
Here are my babes come hOmei"

HOW TO BRUSH YOUR HAIR

There is a right and wrong way of
brushing the hair, as there is of doing
center above the forehead, and give it
20 brisk strikes on each side.
Divide 1t down the back and repeat
the same process. Next brush it back
from the ears, giving 1t always the 20
strokes, says Home Chat. Persevere
with this treatment and your hair will
soon become soft and glossy and repay
the trouble taken with it.

not alone for the esthetic taste
displayed in the decorations, but
for the real works OF art which
characterized it.
The parlor and dining room
were picturesque in festoons of
red hearts. Mrs. Wood was as
sisted in the reception of guests
by her mother, Mrs. Merlick, of

After all were assembled, lit

the circulation of twelve pictures,
illustrating the names of late pop.

sketches, drawn by the hostess,
each worked out in minutest de-

face of the old drinker, taking his

lace in the frills of the lady by the
stone wall representing Wallace.
The contestants worked in couples,
and first and second prizes were
awarded, the two gentlemen re-

pictures from the pen of Mrs.

presented with beautiful water
color sketches, done by Mrs. Rus

heart shaped valentines which
served as favors at the table, so
that each guest carried away q

served, and when it was all over

dropped in at the library, visited
