Care of TabIecloths.


When not in use a tablecloth should
be kept in folded creases and when
brought out to be spread should be
laid on the table and unfolded its eE-
tire length, the width being doubled,
with the center crease along the center
of the table. Then the half breadth
that is folded should be turned back
and the cloth will hang even. Careless
servants often gather up a cloth ANY
how without taking the trouble to
fola 1t up again in its own creases, and
thus fresh ones are made. A table
cloth will keep fresh looking as long
again If it is always folded up in its
own folds and put away until the next
meal.
The French have a way of making
sven an inferior quality of table linen
look well without the aid of starch.
When the napkins are washed and
ready to be ironed they are dipped
into boiling water and partially wsung
out between cloths. They are then
rapidly ironed with as hot a fatiron as
possible without burning them.

A VALENTINE SEARCH.
Substitute For the Uusual Heart Hunt
That Is More Exciting.

A substitute for the usual heart
hunt, but iresher and more exciting, is
a valentine search. The valentines are
hidden in hooks and crannies around
the room. A few are paper, but Others
are very much more ~pretentious.
There are heart shaped boxes filed
with chocolates or with bottles of per-
fume in nests of artificial flowers,
heart shaped pincushions and sachets,
penwipers, blotting pads. calendars
and a variety of attractive articles in
scribed simply, ITO My Valentine"
Cordate photograph frames are repre-
scented in leather, silver and pyro-
graphed wood.
When the search is about to begin a
tiny hand bell is rung by some MEM
Der of the household and away all
hurry. Much of the fun lies in the fact
that the first object discovered is the
valentine of the person discovering it.
When it is found the player must stop
searching. A couple of comic valen-
tines are put In gilded envelopes and
hidden with the rest to add to the fun.
These boobies do not count, and those
finding them are told to continue their
quest until something more desirable
Is unearthed.
II any hostess should find 1t too ex-
pensive to provide gifts for all mem
bers Of the company she might limit
the number to three or four and let
those first to discover them retain
them, or valentines might be in store
for all women of the party and the
men detailed to help them search.

ished now and then by the most sensi

hearts to let. For this as many chairs
as there are women players are deco
rated with huge bows of ribbon or It's
sue paper, punches of artificial flow
ers and golden hearts. They are ar
ranged back to back in the center Of
the room. Each man selects a chair
and marks 1t as his own by writing
his name on a card and placing 1t on
the back of the chair. The girls blind
folded scrambled for the seats.

game.
Or the hostess may cut from pink
cardboard or tissue paper a quantity
OF wee pink hearts, which are scat
tered or hidden around the room.
While the hearts are being distributed
Danish the valentiners into the hall
or an adjoining room. When they are
readmitted have them ranged in line
and get some one to play a lively piano
tune. When the music stops the play
ers scramble for the hearts. When IT
begins again they must fall into line
once more. This continues until all
the hearts are gathered up.

ANNA" HAD
A CUTE SKIN GAME

New York.-Here's the very latest
in skin games, as developed and per-
fected by Anna A. Strula, otherwise
known to- fame as Banana Anna"
AS feminine Rufus Wallingford, the
fair Anna was in a fair way to amass
fortune from her inventive genius,
until some naughty men got wise to
her game. That was last June, and
since then Annals address has been
the well-known Tombs. where she
has been awaiting her appearance be-
fore the courts. The trial is set for
today.
was a poor but honest boarding
house keeper in New Jersey village.
Occasionally, as a variation from the
customary prunes, she served BAN
anas for desert. To this fact was due
Annals fall from grace. She was a
thrifty soul, and didn't like to throw
anything away. But what to do with
the skins of the bananas? Long and
deeply Anna cogitated, until one day,
alas! she hit upon what seemed to
be the answer
AeiNliS q ShIu Ill neT ndIrQ-
bag. she sailed forth to try out her
invention. Selecting a suitable place
on the platform of railroad station,
she dropped the banana skin, then
stepped upon it, and gracefully sat
down. AS game sport she sat
down hard, injuring her spine and
nervous system something awful.
When claim agent of the railroad
had settled for the damages to Annals
constitution, she found herself in pos
session of more money than could be
derived from the prune-an-hash bus
iness in many months. Choosing
different cities as the scene of oper-
ations, and other railroads as the vic
Tins. Anna repeated the operation
with great regularity, at times running
the price of her banana skin up to
$1,000. But she played her skin
game one to often, and the Alliance
for the Prevention of Accident Fraud
got busy, with the result that Anna
was sent away to the skookum house.
