SETTING OFF DINING TABLE
New Patterns in Cut Glass Are Formed
in Imitation Of Beautiful
Flowers.

It Is not usual for new patterns in
cut glass to come in very plentifully,
but the designers and manufacturers
ers have united in a recent effort and
we are shown three beautiful flowers
In the newest glass dishes for our
dining tables. We have the daisy,
with butterfly lowering above it in
a most graceful and perfect design,
made in various-shaped vessels, both
tall and fiat.
Then we have the Scotch thistle.
which is unique in cut glass, and the
clover leaf and blossom so perfect in
the cutting that we wonder there ls
not more persistent effort to re.
produce every available flower.
Another and a greater wonder is
that SO many housewives are given to
sheltering all of these beautiful dishes
-perchance from the careless hands
of servants-until the mere posses
sion" of them has got to be a mania.
It is really better to get the good out
of things than to drift gradually into
what is known as "a slave to your
possessions.
Cut glass should be cleansed IN
soapsuds and then polished with saw
dust and chamois skin.

Small Outlay.

One of the smartest of the new

the collar and strip are finished in IN
irregular scallop buttonholed in a deep
tone of old blue This also runs around
the bottom of the strip, which forms
a semi-circle.
The center of collar and strip are
worked in detached, f1ve-petaled

BET'ZVHIE TALES.
Mr.. Pethcod Scroggs' Identical 7wins
&6~fBy Ellis Darker BuHet8
9N9 Author ofPi8s is Pigs Etc" W.
ILLUSTRATED BY PETER NEWELL

Mr.. Pethcod scroggs, of our VIII
lage, has almost more trouble than
any other man in Betzville, his twins
are go identically alike. 1t makes it
all the worse that both twins are
ldentically the same age, for it would
be easier to tell them apart if one
was few years older than the other
Pethcod says he does not often COM
plain about the ways of nature, but
that II he had had the inventing of
twins, he would have left an inter-
val OF, say, four or eight years be-
tween them, or, If they had to be of
the same age, he would have sort of
distributed them into two different
families. He says he considers two
twins at once in the same family as
almost personal insult.
Last Wednesday one Of Pethcod's
four-year-old twins wandered away
from the house and got lost in the
big woods back of Uncle Jed Free
mans farm, and it worried Pethcod
and Mrs. Scroggs nearly crazy. It
was about five o'clock when he had
feeling that maybe one of the twins
was lost, but he didn't know wheth-
er 1t was John or Joe. He went out

all about being thirsty and started at
full whoop after the search commit
tee. She went leaping through the
big woods yelling as loud as she
could, and just as she came up with
the search committee the committee
mad found Joe, and were singing a
song of triumph that Dave GifRngs
boy had thoughtfully written for the
occasion to the tune of John Browns
body. 1t went like this:
Joe. Joe Pethcod, he is found and he Is
Joe. Joe Pethcod, he is found and he is
found.
Joe, Joe Pethcod, he is found and he Is
found,
He is found and he is found.
They had just finished the first
verse when Mrs. Pethcod ran up
screaming:
stop! Stop! Stop finding Joe!" she
cried. 1T Is John that is LOST"
But she was already too late, for
they had found Joe. So there was
nothing to do but to call a meeting
OF the committee, and the COMMITTEES
decided, quite properly, that as they
had started out to find one twin and
hadn't found him, the whole list of
parliamentary rules we're broken by
finding the other, and that there was
nothing to do but go home and start
over again the next day. So they told
John to stay where he was and they
would come out and find him the
next day, properly and in his right
name. Then they passed a resolu-
tion of censure against Mrs. Pethcod
for giving wrong information and
went home, and they would have
found John properly the next dey,
only the little skeesicks tagged along
behind them all the way home.

MATCHES AND MATcHMAKERs
BY VIRGINIA VAN be WATER.

The matchmaker rushes in where
angels fear to tread. And yet she is
no fool. And her lot is not an easy
one. She is suspected by the world
wise. tolerated by the young and sunin-
itiated, and frequently ashamed of
herself. Still she exists and continues
to make matches.
In one of the Gypsy Brenton books.
dear to the childish heart of quarter
century agone. the small boy says
that God made matches, but that "He
used the burning birthstone from the
bad place to put on the tips" Later
a. Well-known author makes her hero
Inc remark: Matches may be made
in heaven, but they sometimes serve
to light the fires of-well- other
place, very effectually" The fact that
the two characters mentioned referred
to d1herent kinds of matches does not
alter the truth that may be drawn
from both remarks. This truth is ap-
pl1cable to the match with which we
have to do more than to the innocent
little wood and birthstone article.
It Is not difficult to understand why
the devoted mother attempts to have
hand in the settling of her daugh-
ter's marriage. She takes it for
granted that she will marry-most
women do-and no woman knows true
happiness until she is beloved and
loving wife and joyful mother. Is it
strange, then, that the elderly woman
IN whose power the happiness or un-
happiness of her child cannot always
rest longs to. play destiny for her
darling and establish her in life as she
thinks will be most conducive to her
future welfare? To this end she wants
ner girls to marry a gentleman, and
here the is the rock upon which
many mother and child spilt-a man
with enough money to support his
family in comfort.
Love must be the keynote of a hap-
py marriage, but the keynote alone

affairs the next day. Pethcod had tied
him to the pump II. such a way that
the handle Of the pump was tied in
with him, SO the family could not
pump any water, and Pethcod was so
busy drawing up the petition that he
had no time to unite John. Our duty
to lost child should always be fore
most.
When the meeting met the next
night the petition was accepted and
resolution to get up a search CON-
mtttee to find Joe in the big woods
went through with a rush, and in less
than three hours the search commit
tee had got its torches and lanterns
and was on it's way into the big woods
to find Joe
Just about then Mrs. Pethcod
Scroggs became so thirsty her tongue
hung out, and she simply had to have
drink of water, so she went out to
the pump, but the minute she saw
John she gave a scream, for it was
not John at all, but Joe. She knew
by the way he snored that she must
have been mistaken when she thought
he was John, and she was so cha
grined and startled that she forgot

match" for her child, II she some
times sets aside the chili's wishes, in
cites her to a cold, practical consid-
Grafton of marriage that is to be de.
plored, we must remember that her
oVer-zeal is due to a great love, and
conndone the error for the motive that
actuates it..
We cannot say as much of the mar
ried woman who sees a possible en-
gagement and marriage in every
couple that she, or chance, has thrown
together. One is almost tempted to
wonder If there is a matchmaking
microbe that attacks such matrons.
Since, as has been said above, the
perfection of bliss is to be found III
a happy union, the converse is also
true. No greater misery is known
than that brought about by an un-
happy marriage. To be tied for life
(unless one rushes with an eagerness
worthy of a better cause into the d.
vorce court) to an uncongenial mate,
to live under the same roof, to eat at
the same table, to share the same in
come, to consider the tastes and dis
tastes, to receive the reproaches, to
obey the behest of such an one, to
humor his or her whims-is a fore
taste of that locality from which the
small boy declared the tips Of match
es were made.
Knowing all this, our matchmaker
continues upon her way, playing prov
1dence or fate to many a young couple
who were better left apart. Or, If not
better apart, they will seldom appre-
ciate the fact that they were brought
together by a well-meaning friend,
and if she calls their attention to her
Efforts In their behalf they will resent
her suggestion. The idea! Were they
not meant from all eternity for each
other? Could she, or any one else, be
instrumental in bringing together two
persons whose affinity was a foregone
conclusion? Verify, she has her re-
ward!
All these things being true. it is
strange that the matchmaker exists.
1t Us to some of US incomprehensihle.

some stumble and few run.
She may receive the appreciation
and thanks she seeks in better world
than this; she seldom receives them
here.
