line.
She really has the interest of her
employers at heart, while tho lord Of
creation thinks only Of the graft" I'm

she is doing the thing she is boosting

GUEST AND HOSTESS.

Lines Of Conduct That Make the Sum-
mer Visitor Popular.
A fine line is that drawn nowadays
between consideration of a hostess and
neglect Of her. To be always under
the foot Of the woman in whose house
one may be staying is to render a
guest decidedly unpopular, and yet to
keep away too much is rude.
The exact conduct of a guest must
necessarily be regulated by conditions.
An eXacting hostess requires more
time than one whose life is well filled
and who likes TO have a few moments
TO herself at intervals. No woman.
whether hostess or guest. cares to be
ignored. and to prevent oven the ap-
pearance of this is a matter about
which a visitor cannot be too careful
A woman who visits many weeks
each summer has laid down a general
line of conduct that she has found to
work exccllently, although sometimes
IL must be varied. When she is in a
house where there are plenty OF serv-
ants she does not so down. TO break
fast, thereby relieving her hostess OF
her presence at a time when the head
OF the house may have many things to
attend TO or else may not care to see
visitor. Having taken this time to
herself and given her hostess a chance
TO be alone. the guest materializes
about 10 o'clock and hunts out her
hostess on the porch. sitting room or
other general meeting place. II the
hostess is not TO be found then the
friend concludes that she is busy and
so with book or fancy work waits un-
til her hostess arrives. BY that time
1t is taken for granted that household
arrangements have been made and that
the hostess time IS free. The careful
guest watches 70 see IL there are not
notes her friend wishes to write. and
IL she thinks such is the case she gives
the opportunity either by going out
Of the room or asking her friend to
write regardless Of her presence.
