FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

The mistress Of a modest income has
had a good deal to say on the subject of
entertaining She says that all OF her
troubles come from seif-invited guests
who outstay whatever welcome she might
have had for them under happier circum-
stances. She began married life In an
apartment containing just rooms enough
for the little family. with a couch on
which a guest could pass a comfortable
night IL the necessity arose. With par
donable ambition she outgrew the place
and took a house in the suburbs with
spare rooms. which had TO be furnished
and extra expenses in the shape OF heat,
service. and food prices.
She was simply deluged with company
and her weekly bills climbed 10 appalling
proportions Worse than that. she has
been overworked and was a nervous
wreck when her husband assumed charge
OF the situation and procured a suite OF
four rooms In a neighborhood where
there were good stores, including dell
catessen place. Heat and janitor service
are included In the rent. and she has
found a woman to work by the hour. She
has kept the best Of her furniture for
daily use and stored the remainder In the
basement room which goes with her
apartment
The state OF her health will not permit
guests, even if she had a guest chamber.
which she has not. She manages to en-
terrain an occasional relative or friend
al luncheon or dinner. but without elabo-
ration, and she is finding the family purse
deep enough TO cover her wants in such
modest circumstances. She will recover
her health in time, for she rests a good
deal and is under no strain now. but it is
safe 70 say that for the rest OF her life
she viii eschew ambition in the house
keeping line and refuse 20 be imposed
upon by either friends or relatives.
Every housewife IS expected to do
something in the line OF hospitality-sh
wants to, OF course-but she has right
to select her time OF entertaining. Pos
slbly those who keep open house do not
understand any other course. but delicacy
/ Is expected In persons OF good breeding.
In large families one or two extra per
/ sons DO not matter much. for the food
/ supply is liberal In small families. where
/ purchases must be small 20 avoid waste
! unexpected guests arc embarrassing. and
/ all housewives are not clever enough TO
evolve delicious dishes from next 70 Moth
/ ing In families Without a maid the
/ mistress has 10 work hard enough with

/ shoulders, and she may be excused for
\ finding no pleasure IN visits which in

cry inflicted upon helpless women by
