EVENING CHAT
BY RUTH CAMERON.

| A man I know, peing disappointed
at the last moment by the lady OF his
| choice, took his young sister to the
| theater the other day.
1t was evidently the first time in
years he had been anywhere with her,
and he made a discovery -
He confided it to me later.
| Never thought much about Sis
| one way or the other before, but do
you know she's really good deal
| brighter and better looking and all
| that than a lot of the girls I used to
tote around. I'm going to try it again
some day."
| He evidently belongs to that large
| class of people who would discover
source of pleasure hitherto hidden
by its nearness, if they would only
cultivate their families.
If you are a man, have you taken
| pains to find out what a nice person
| to take to the theater, or some other
| good time occasionally, sister is, and
what a good fellow on fishing or
| hunting trip father can be, or what
a nice evening you can have just Wis
iting with mother once in awhile?
If you are a girl have you ever dis
covered how much father would like
| to beau" you to the concert or the
party once in awhile. or how wonder
fully mother can fit in with your
crowd of girls and become one with
them If you give her half a chance,
and what excellent manners and con-
versational qualities big brother may
develop if you treat him in the same
way you do your masculine friends?
II you haven't discovered these
things, suppose you start ON voy-
age of discovery right away.
think you'll find it worth while.
Have you by any chance some old
friend whose annual birthday and
ricfT Gifts from long piu-
ing, have become rather q puzzle to
you?
II you have, you may be interested
in a plan that girl know has taken
up. She has such friend.
She has given her haphazard gifts
the idea of giving her each Christmas
and birthday silver spoon, until the
set of dozen should be completed.
After that she plans to start on the
forks.
The girl who receives these gifts is
simply delighted with them.
