The ladies began TO chat pleasantly

of the corners of their eyes, and the
men glanced carelessly around to see

way some of those people saved up
their hunger for dinner was too Pc
nurious for mine.
I took Mrs. Hodge in and she took
in my wife's dress to see If it was
made over from last years.
Young CommunipaW tried hard not
to reach the table first, but a plate of
dill pickles caught his eye and he
won from old man Hodge by an
arm.
The first round was oyster cocktails
and everybody drew cards.
This was Ollies maiden attempt at
making oyster cocktails, and she had
original ideas about them, which con-
sisted of salad oil instead Of tomato
catsup.
The salad oil come from Italy, SO
the oysters were extremely foreign
in taste.
After eating his cocktail Riley
Hatch began to turn pale, and politely
inquired if we raised our own oy-
sters.
But just then little Cutey Coyne up-
set a glass of water and changed the
subject and the complexion of the
taDlecloth.
The next round was mock turtle
soup, and it made a deep impression,
especially on Charley Swayne, be-
cause little Casanova Golden upset her
share in his lap when he least ex.
pected it.
Charlie was very nice about it, how
ever.
He only swore twice. then he re-
membered once gentleman always

and not on him, and when the fish
came on he forgot his troubles by get

When Charlie began to talk like 3
trout, old man Hodge grabbed the
bread knife and begged to be allowed
to carve his initials on somebody s

just to show l wasn't stingy.
Then came the Thanksgiving tur-
key, and this is where that cook Of
ours won the blue ribbon.
My wife had told her to stuff it
with chestnuts, but Ollie thought chest
nuts too much of an old joke, SO she
stuffed it with peanut brittle.
Ollie had noticed some other things
about the kitchen which looked lone
some, so she decided to put them in
the turkey, too.
One of these was the corkscrew.

Use Of the Hardy Ferris.

Graceful effects may be developed
In fairgrounds. in drives through
glades, and in many other positions,
by the bold use of the larger hardy
ferns. Few. people seem to give much
attention to hardy ferns, and in most
gardens, if there are any at all, they
are usually planted in some out of the
way spot where no one sees them.
Rarely do we find them well grown
or an important item in the garden
picture The bold and handsome ferns
of our own and other countries de-
serve something better than to be CON
demned to a miserable existence
among lot of decaying roots, which
the conventional idea always assacia-
ted with them-Garden Illustrated.

AN AMBUSH FOR WAsPs
Special Fondness of the Queens for
Rhododendrons Leads to Their
Death.

A curiosity in natural history that
must surpass all records has been OBJ
served in a garden not far from Alder
shot, says the London Daily Mail A
number of Wasps were heard buzzing
about a particular rhododendron bush
The gardener summoned the owner of
the garden, and the two proceeded to
slaughter. Within half an hour fifty
queen wasps had been killed.
The next day a number more were
buzzing about the bush under the
same fatal but obscure attraction 1t
was noticed that the wasps were
only attracted to this single bush.
which is one of many. A suggested
reason is that the flowers were a lit
tie further advanced and so more
full of honey, but as rule color is al
most as strong an allurement as
scent or the honey sense.
1t is not unusual for few queen
wasps to be killed at this season,
when the time for nest making is
approaching, but this quantity is IN
paralleled The experience suggests
that the wasp might be eXtermlnated,
supposing this to be desirable, if we
all grew specimens of this favored
flower The special fondness of queen
wasps for white flowers of particular
sorts has been observed before, and
some gardeners grow such on purpose,
but fifty in half an hour is new rec
ord Of slaughter.
The queens were killed by pinching
the flowers into which they Owed and
which served as shroud to the guam
tity of bodies lying around the deadly
ambush of the rhododendron.

found horseshoe which Ollie had put
in for luck
It made my wife extremely nervous
TO see the can opener, a pair of sCis-
sors and nine clothes pins come out
of that turkey, but Jack Golden said
that their last cook tried to stuff their
turkey with the garden hose, so my
wife felt better.
The next round was some salad
which Ollie had dressed in the kitch-
en-, but the dress was such a bad fit
that nobody could look at it without
blushing.
Then ne had some homemade ice
cream for dessert.
The ice was very good, but Ollie
forgot to add the cream, so it tasted
rather insipid
! Every time there was lull in the
conversation Charlie Swayne kept
yelling for Bronx cocktail, and the
only thing that kept him from get
ting it was the fact that Riley Hatch
wanted to tell the story of his
life.
Anyway, the dinner came to fin
ish without anybody fainting, and the
guests went home little hungry bat
imprisoned.
The next morning my wife spoke
bitterly to Ollie, and she left us, fol-
lowed by the Thanksgiving prayers of
all those present.
The only thing about the house that
loved Ollie was pair of earrings be.

Roosevelt and the Tariff.

Republican standpatters class Theo-
dore Roosevelt with the insurgents.
Insurgent leaders declare he is a back
slider.
The insurgents seem to have the
better of the argument
| In 1884 Mr.. Roosevelt was an ardent
member of the Free Trade club of New
York and signed pronunciamento cal
ling upon the national convention that
met in Chicago to adopt free trade
platform.
Yet, with seven years in the white
house, Mr.. Roosevelt never took any
action or uttered any word that might
have been construed as antagonistic to
the protectionist doctrine. embodied
in it's highest degree in the Aldrlch-
Taft tariff, under which the country
now groans.
More than that In absolute control
of the New York republican conven-
ton, nominating his own candidates for
every position on the slate, the Roose-
welt platform embodied, not a protest
against the iniquitous tariff, but an UNI
qualified approval CT it as measure
in the public interest.
Mr.. Roosevelt is not an insurgent.
He is not progressive. He is sup
porter of the mill bosses of New En-
gland.
Nobody can point to any act in his
tariff record that indicates anything
else Chicago Journal.

Rehuke to INSURGENCY,

Detroit Free Press (standpatter) (:
We viewed Theodore Roosevelt with
misgivings, even with alarm for a time
Today we rejoice with all good repubiI-
cans and with good citizens generally,
that h S personality and power and in
flu ,nce exist, becau sc they are being
turned to the support of President
Taft, the accepted party lead r. But,
enjoyable as true republicans must find
the situation, what of the insurgents?
Where does the Saratoga convention
leave Cummins of Iowa? His following
is in the Roosevelt ranks, and has been
wheeled into line behind President
Taft, where it belongs. And what be-
comes of the chameleon toadies who
thought that Mr.. Roosevelt was an
tagonistic to Mr.. Taft and were ready
to turn and change about any way to
keep with him?
