TO AMUsE GUESTS.

A simple way to amuse guests is &c
divide the party into two sides and
choose a leader, who stands in the
middle and losses a cap. If 1t falls
right side up the people on one side
laugh as heartily as they can.
Any one on the other side seen "a
smile has to join the laughing side
When the cap falls wrong side up the
other sides turn IT Is to laugh and
win the people over. The game usually
ends In a roar of laughter and breaks
the ice OF formality.
The A B G race is another simple
uproarious game. Six girls have old
fashioned school states and six men
have slate pencils. Partners are chosen
beforehand. A signal is given the men,
who stand ranged at one end Of the
room, who rush to their partners at
the other end. and each endeavors 70
write the alphabet on the slate held
out TO him before any one else accom-
plishes the task. Another six contest
until all have tried. Those winning the
races get the prizes.

Care of the Teeth

FROM infancy to old age teeth are
constant source Of trouble to most
Of Us, and no other feature gives great
er cause for anxiety to the would be
beauty. Given care. she may rest as
sured Of good complexion, her hair is
not likely TO turn white In a single
night" but OF her teeth she can never
feel sure. Modern science has done
much for the art of dentistry, but no
matter how good and perfect false
teeth may be they never look or feel
like those the good Lord gives US.
In childhood much can be done to
improve the teeth. and the first set
should be carefully attended 70. Too
many parents are negiectful in this re-
spect Teeth which overlap or are not
quite straight can be improved by the
wearing Of q plate. Every three
months chs'd's mouth should be ex-
amined by dentist. and grownupz
should have his attention every six
months. In this way much expense
and pain are saved, for at the first
signs Of decay small gold filing viii
often save tooth for the remainder Of
ones life.
Although defects IN the shape and
setting of teeth cannot be remedIed
after person is full grown, the color
Of the teeth can be improved by care
full attention and a conscientious
cleansing night and morning and
when possible after meals. A reliable
tooth powder should be used at night
and II desired IN the morning, but dur
ing the day clear warm water is all that
is necessary. When the teeth show
any signs OF accommodating tartar It
should be promptly removed with mag
nesia sprinkled upon a toothbrush
previously dipped in warm water. The
teeth should be rubbed afterward with
very little powdered pumice, used
about once a month, but not oftener.
In brushing the teeth IL should be
borne in mind that the inside of both
the top and bottom rows must be given
as much attention as the outside. The
brush should be used downward on the
upper teeth and upward on the lower.
so as 70 press the gums down over the
teeth and not from them. Care should
be taken TO pass the bristles between
each tooth.

UPHOLSTERY TRIMMINGS.

THE latest fashionable stunt is
hunting for dress trimmings in the
upholstery departments OF shops" said
a gownmaker recently. TITS a queer
idea. but effective things can be picked
up by the clever woman in these
places. Remnants OF tapestry to be
found at the upholstery counter are
rich In suggestion to the woman who
knows. One such woman not long ago
purchased a quarter Of yard Of silk
and wool tapestry Of pattern that
could be easily cut into separate me-
dailions for trimming. When these
medallions were couched around with
heavy silk and applied 70 a black chif-
fon cloth waist and hand embroidery
in the same shade used as a connect
ing link between the medallions the ef-
feet was that OF solid handwork.

THE LATEST MASSAGE WRINKLE

Instead of using hot cloths or steam
to get the face into condition for mas
saying. the latest idea Is TO use water
charged with electricity. The water Is
applied through spongelike substance
at the end Of two tubes attached to
an electric wire or battery. The instru-
ment is 81 constructed that surplus
moisture is carried of in one Of the
pipes. The advocates OF this method
say there is no danger of too much re-
Taxing OF the muscles, as in the case
with steam. and the heat is 50 regu-
lated that there is no danger Of scald-
ing the skin, as with hot cloths.

How to Train Boys

EVERY true man." Milton says. was
born knight" Mothers can train
their boys in their attitude toward
their sisters and themselves in ways
which later on In polite society they viii
have TO practice toward all women
for instance, to give up the favorite
book or toy or comfortable chair to the
little sister, to carry her schoolbooks
for her and to step aside and let her
enter room first and to give In to her
within reason because he is q boy and
the stronger. Another courtesy often
more observed in the breach than in
the observance by boys is the raising
OF their hats to feminine members Of
the family when they meet them
abroad. All these polite acts can be
so instilled into q boy that they be-
come second nature to him.
A mother should teach and eneour-
age her boys and girls to be everything
10 one another. In large families II
often happens that each boy selects
one sister as his special friend. He
confides to her all his troubles and
secrets and shares with her all his
treats. When his school days begin
and the boy goes of to school the sis
ter is apt TO become less OF conf
dant. 1t is here that mothers in
iuence should come In. She should
encourage the sister at home to write
regularly to her brother, and. above all,
she should teach her that on her de-
ponds largely her brothers future ideal
OF wOmanhood. Therefore she must
never lower herself by word or deed in
her brothers eyes.
Foolish and thoughtless indulgence
OF boys by their mothers and sisters
results in utter selhshness and a want
OF courtesy and chivalry to women
later on in life.
"a man is what a woman makes him"
is the old saying, and a mothers Won
derful shaping hands and heart OF love
can mold boy into the manhood OF
Sir Galahad, whose strength was as
the strength Of ten because his heart
was pure"

Two Toned Velveteen New Gown Material

There are predictions rife that vel
vets are being so freely used for new
costumes that a little later on in the
season this fabric will be hard TO get.
As II is. manufacturers have. all they
can do to keep up with their orders.
Velvet and velveteen and a new vel
vetina soft and pliable as real velvet,
are used for suits. for boots. for hats
and for trimmings throughout the en-
tire wardrobe. The velvet sunshade
was one OF the precursors Of the style
as far back as last July. The long
black scarf lined with satin is another
craze.
That a season OF great richness IN
feminine apparel Is with US needs no
telling when velvet. satin and fur are
as prominent as they already are.
