entertainment at this time of the
year is the "house party or II
the guests are invited to pay a visit
from, say, Friday until Monday, 1t is
called q weekend party" A country
home is more especially adapted to such
parties, as the outdoor life is enjoyed
by all, and makes the entertainment IT
the guests a far less arduous task for
the host and hostess han il 1t were
given In the town house.
All invitations should be sent as early
as possible SO that the places of those
who may regret can be filled by others
who will prove equally co%ngenial TO
those already invited. All invitations
to house parties or weekend parties
are given In the name of the hostess.
A timetable should be enclosed with
the invitation, and the hostess should
mention what train will be met by the
carriage, automobile, or station wagon.
The names of the other guests are
usually mentioned, and If any special
forms of entertainment have been ar
ranged for, It Is best to enumerate
them.
But a hostess must remember that 1t
is always wisest never to assume any
thing; that is not to try to appear
wealthy If she is not, and not to as
sumo a social position which she does
not hold. Every home has its indi-
v%iduality, and this, after all, is its
true charm.
To be free from the formalities Of
life is what appeals to most guests
when making a visit in the country,
therefore the true hostess will merely
suggest different forms of entertain
ment during the day, and allow her
guests to do whatever they wish, not
urging them to join in anything which
may not particularly appeal to them.
The secret of entertaining with ease
is to live well every day. If the table
linen is always fresh. the glass, and
silver glistening, fresh towers always
on the table. the food we'll cooked and
carefully served-in other words, if
everything is dainty and attractive, a
hostess need never fear to entertain
the most f%astidious guest.
There should be one large room where
the guests may assemble, and where
they may feel thoroughly comfortable
and at ease.
In this room there should be plenty
of books, magazines and newspapers.
A plano Is a most necessary adjunct.
either in this room or in a separate
room, set apart for music. There must
be plenty of comfortable chairs, q
divan, with soft pollows, a large centre
table with a lamp, and also plants and
cut flowers to make the room bright
cheerful and attractive
If possible, II Is well to set apart q
small room as a den" for the men.

To Remove Ink.

Dear Miss Doom:
/ would be very thankful II you could
tell me how to remove ink spots from
white goods; also color goods without
fadeing them. r s. G.
Oxalic acid crystals dissolved In
water and used as a soaking solution
before the material is washed will
prove effective. For the colored goods
try soaking in milk first.

Take u can of salmon, cut it up
fine, season with a little salt and white
pepper. Boil and mash 3 or 4 potatoes
and mix with the salmon. Form in
egg-shaped c%roquettes, dip them in
egg, then in cracker crumbs. Fry, in
very hot fat. Drain them on brown
paper. put on a hot platter. Garnish
with parsley. Serve them with sliced
cucumbers, stewed corn and buttered
beets. The other half of the salmon
may be put in a china bowl with a
cup of mild vinegar, 2 or 3 cloves, a
poured over it and set away to cool.

The traveling-bags, umbrellas, etc,
should be carried to the rooms by d
house-maid or n butler.
II the hostess has a sufficient numbcf
Of servants in her employ, she should
have a maid to unpack the women's
trunks n to assist them in dressing
for dinner, to draw their baths for
them in the morning, and, In fact, to
always be at their service at certain
times before each meal.
II there is a valet. he should unpack
the mems trunks. brush their clothes
and lay them out, polish their boots,
prepare the baths. and make himself
generally useful. A boy could be taught
to perform all these duties II one has
no regular valet.
But both a maid and a valet are I'M
necessary II one has not the means to
support so large a household, and the
invited guests will enjoy themselves
quite as much at a less formal and ex-
pensive house party.
Men are expected to wear evening
dress, and the women demi-toilette at
dinner.
In the morning, whether there be a
ladies' maid and a valet or not, the
guests should be Weakened by q maid
who taps gently on the door and asks
what time the bath Is to be drawn.
Hot water is then brought for the mems
shaving purposes, and placed in each
room.
If the breakfast Is served In the bed
rooms the tray must be daintily fur
nished and the food inviting in ap-
p%earance.
A model hostess makes her visitors
feel perfectly at home. The obvious
effort to entertain does away with
much of pleasure Of both hostess and
guest. She should study the various
tastes and try to place before them
what she sees will appeal to them.

CORN NOVELTY.


A novelty for the table this year is
picked young corn in the ear. 1t comes
from France. The ears of corns were
picked just when the grains had begun
to grow upon the cob. They are about
four inches long,
Other novelties of the season are can
ned sliced cucumbers and onions for
salads, and dried ~cranberries In cans.
To prepare the dried cranberries for
the table they are soaked in water I'M
til they swell to normal size and then
they are cooked as the fresh berries
are.

require two cents postage. and when
the error is made the recipient must

All along the way is high wall with rifle pits and holes for shooting down an enemy in case of in vasion or attack. There are seven large gates. Each one has rooms and can ac- commodate large number of soldiers. There are two marble memorials to Jaimal aud Patta, the leaders who so braveIy defended Chitor and were killed when Akbar took the city.
 The city is one great ruin. Ala ud- din heard that Padnami, the wife of one of the kings kinsmen, was very beauti- ful and asked to see her reflection in a looking glass. Her husband permitted him and accompanied him outside the gates of Chitor. Alla-ud din seized him and said he would not free him un- til Padnami was given to him. They agreed and Padnami's litter with 700 Of her women's covered filters came out. The husband was freed, and instead of the women, the filters had been filled with the best soldiers and the bearers were also soldiers. Alla-ud din was beaten and forced to retreat. Years afterwards he took the palace. The goddess had. demanded the blood of l2 kings-eleven princes were crowned one after another to be sent into battle and be killed. One son only was saved and smuggled out of town to carry on the line. When they could do no more, the men dressed themselves up, the women put on their bridal garments. The men went into action and were all killed. Padnami with all the women and children shut themselves in the palace and in caves They had piles of wood prepared which they set fire to and thousands were burned to death so that Ala ud din did not find living thing when he entered the city.

 have been too windy, although l boiled things down so as to make very dull and uninteresting reading. But there are generally one or two things worth noticing at every city. The Ajmir people are past masters in the art of grating. There is not much 10 see-a walled city, red stone palace built by Akbar, very old mosque, Hindoo temple with the tomb of saint and the crowned heads who insisted on being buried beside him. At the mosque hoary old scoundrel showed me his picture taken by some hysteri. cal young lady from the New England states. He also showed me 8 picture of herself in rural surroundings which she had sent to him. He wanted me to take his picture and when Ltold him 1 had no kodak he charged me thirty cents for the picture 1 might have taken of him. The mosque was not worth looking at and l did not go in. 1 was turning away when about dozen braced me for things might have done and did not do. I might have put on slippers, I might have gone into the mosque, 1 might have climbed the min aret, might have gone down into the tomb, etc. I am sorry, but still owe all those people.
 At the Hindoo temple they put a wreath of flowers on me. 1 had paid forr or five guides and priests, the slipper boy and the boy who gave me the flowers when eight more claimed something. The flowers came from the garden of one, another plucked them, another washed them and another had them blessed and so on. put the wreaths around the neck of goddess and hurried away.
 It was very hot in Ajmir. Ihad often admired the careless ease with which men or women would sit down on the ground and gossip. They have as little self consciousness as children. A bunch of grown women will sit in the dust with their bare legs stretched out per fectly happy. About noon was hur- rying to the station. The sun was straight above me and the hot sand and dust glared at me from below and burned worse than the hot sun. By i the side of the road a woman and child lay sleeping. She was young, well formed and naked excepting loln cloth. The dust was several inches deep and buried one of her breasts; the baby had evid ently gone asleep and just dropped off the other, for stream of milk was still trickling from the corner of his mouth. He was perfectly naked and both their faces were fully exposed to that burning sun. Not one of us in ten thousand could have stood it. But I will always think of that sight as a picture of contentment.
 CHITOR.
 From Ajmir to Chitor is l2O miles and it takes all night. My car windows were all open on account of the heat and at every station had the baggage porters wake me up to ask me how Milton Vim was and if did not want my baggage taken to hotel. Very pleasant night. At Chitor there are DO hotels and had to go to a Dak bunga low. These are built by the govern. ment when there are no hotels. Some deserving native is put in charge. My mans name was Nasie.ud- din, a Mo- hammedau, and he was very indignant

ELLERY CHARGES KENNEL
CLUB EVADED INJUNCTION
Alleges Committees Action
Caused His Suspension

William Ellery, proprietor of the
Valverde kennels, charged in a supple
mentary complaint, filed yesterday, that
the Pacific advisory committee of the
American kennel club violated the in
junction of the superior court prohib-
iting the committee from taking any
steps tending to disqualify his dogs
from participation in shows. The COM
mittee accused Euery of falsifyfng ages
and pedigrees of his dogs, and was
about TO try him when Ellery obtained
an injunction.
He now states that in violation of
that injunction the committee sent an
official communication to the head
quarters of the American kennel club
in New York, the result of which being
that August Belmont, president of the
club, wrote a letter suspending the
San Francisco kennel club and Elery
from participation in any shows until
the charges of misconduct against Ell
lery had been investigated. August
l Belmonts letter was dated November
IS. 1903.
December q, 1909. the American ken
mel club adopted a resolution offering
TO withdraw the suspension if Euery
would dismiss his injunction suit and
pay all the expenses to which the Pa
cific advisory committee has been sub
jected by reason Of the suit All this
time the American kennel club had full
notice of the courts action and was
acting for the purpose of nullifying the
judicial order, it is alleged. Ellery asks
that the temporary restraining order

/ qualifying his dogs now be made per-

v. Litigation Against the Company.

No extended or adequate reference can be
made in this report or at this time to the
litigation against your company and some of
its employees, for the reason that these
matters are still the subject of judicial in
vestigation. In April last the Board. through
its Secretary, communicated to you state
ment signed by the counsel for the company,
giving the reasons why this company had
settled claim, which had been made against
it by the United States Government by rea-
son of certain fraudulent underweighing OF
sugar at one of your several rehneries-
Your Board has endeavored in every way to
facilitate the Investigations of the Govern
ment. Without the formality of subpoena,
the officers of this company. with the knowi-
edge and approval of the Board, have put in
the possession of the special counsel for the
Government, all books. documents, letters and
minutes of whatever kind, that such special
counsel desired. and have given them the
freest and fullest access to the Offices of your
company and the freest and fullest opportun-
ity to interrogate any and all employees.
No attempt whatever has been made to
shield any one and your Board has no reason
TO believe and does not believe that any ex-
ecutiye officer or director of this Company
had any knowledge of or participation in this
fraudulent underweighing.
Another litigated case. which has been the
subject of much inaccurate and unjust COM
ment, is the suit brought against this COM
peny by the Receiver of the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining Company, growing out Of
transaction known as the SSegal loan. As it
has also been made the subject matter of legal
proceedings by the Government against this
company and some of it's directors. any ade-
Nquate statement of the true facts of the case
at this time might be misconstrued and is
therefore best omitted. 1t is sufficient 10 say
that the Supreme Court of the United States
when called upon to consider the legality Of
the ACQUISITION by fhs companv of four sugar
refneries in the City of PHILADELPHIA. held
that the interstate commerce law did not
