The reasons why people should
trade at home are numerous, but so
far as we are able to learn but n
reason is advanced for purchasing
goods of mail order houses. That n
O saving of money-is often
no reason at all, for in many instances
the express charges or freight n

Gle that as quoted in the price list
seemed a wonderful bargain, almost
or quite up to the price charged by
the local dealer. But eve were n
able to save a few cents on the pur-
chase price by buying away from
home, it appears to us that the loss
is infinitely more than the gain, for
he who sends the money which he
earns in the home town out to swell

considerable degree the respect of
those around him, nor can he under
these conditions preserve his self

A Novel Luncheon.

Dear Madame Merri: Is four o'clock
a proper hour for luncheon? l want
to have a little entertainment scheme
afterwards and please tell me if l may
seat the guests at one time at one
table and if / could only use candle
light, drawing the curtains? Please
give me a menu and a suggestion for
place cards. I'd like to use flowers
somehow; / think tulips, as they are
out in April. The luncheon is to be
given for a bride-elect. How can l de-
note her chair at table and how many
prizes should there be?
Very truly, x. Y. 2.
Four o'clock is decidedly too late
for a luncheon. One o'clock or half
after is the accepted hour, then there
will be time for whatever is planned
for the special entertainment and per-
NIT the guests to get home for dinner.
The shades are drawn and candles
used for all daytime functions. A CEN
terpiece of tulips with candle shades
to match would be both appropriate
and s~easonable. l should serve first
a course of fruit, whatever you can
get, then a bouillon, followed by a
chicken or sweetbread patty, potato
croquettes or Saratoga chips, olives,
nuts, bonbons, a tomato or fruit salad,

PET ECONOMIES OF WOMEN.
Some Examples of a Good Thing Car
ried to Extremes.

You never really know a woman,
some one has said, until you discover
her pet economies.
One very wealthy woman whose hus-
band is a judge her pennies by
saving bottles. Whenever there is
need to have a prescription put up she
sends an empty bottle from the house
instead of paying five to ten cents for
anew one. The woman often. heads a
subscription list with a $1,000 check,
but she won't buy bottles.
Economy in the kitchen is frequent
" the cause of trouble. One woman
simply can't keep a chef because she
insists that every particle of butter
left over from the table shall be used
for cooking.
Another had no end of trouble with
her servants because she insists upon
their using candles. Saving paper,
Irvine and wooden bundle carriers
from the shops is a common economy.
An actress who has plenty of money
saves all her old shoes and slippers.

A Petticoat Party,

AS it is quite "commeil fault for the
intimate girl friends of the twentieth
century bride to contribute bits Of
lingerie to her trousseau, this unique
party was given recently for an April
bride-elect. 1t was given in place of a
shower. the girls cut, sewed and made
two fetching chambray petticoats; one
pink, one blue, trimmed with white
curtain net ruff1es. 1t takes six yards
with one yard of net to make inc
skirt. A deep founce is made of the
net ornamented with three graduated
bands of the chambray and a bias
band at the top of the ruf1e. These
creations will delight the heart of any
young woman and launder beautifully.
Chocolate and waters or a chatting
dish supper is served, and at the party
l refer to the hostess had plates of
fudge and a huge pitcher of lemonade
conveniently placed for the happy
workers.

Seeming the Hair,

A good method Of seeming the hair
is to drop five or six drops Of oil OF
jessamine or some other perfume of
the same kind into the palm of the
hand and rub hard over the brush,
SO that the oil Is transferred to the
bristles. The hair should then be
well brushed and will be found to be
quite sufficiently perfumed by this
method. This should be done after
it has been first washed. Damp hair
loses its curl. Hot weather increases
the perspiration Of the scalp and SO
causes much-tried woman a little ex.
ira trouble. There are many excel
lent lotions for preventing and rem
edying the mischief. Here is a pre-.
scription: Five parts Of hazeline,
two parts of eau de cologne and one
part Of spirit Of rosemary, well
shaken together.
