The secret of the tea lies in the proper fusion.
 The variety of tea is matter of indi- vidual taste The high priced teas are not always the best. A poor tea properly made is better than good tea bndly made A woman in buying tea shoulf find out whether 1t Is from an early or late picking. its name at home. how It Is cured. and then insist on getting the same tea each time a purchase Is made. Tea leaves subjected to different proc esses of curing require different methods to obtain the best beverages. There are two broad rules to follow and several minor ones.
 Black tea requires boiling water anG green tea does not. Black tea requires fresh water poured on the leaves when 1t has just come to a decided boil Hot water that has boiled long time and has lost it's life will not make good tea IL should stand from three to seven minutes. and only in a porcelain pct Then all the liquid should be poured orf.

The bathroom should be examined to the fullest extent. and no lease should be signed before the place has been thor Oughiy gone over. Apartments with an exceptionally low rent rate should be especially examined, for some defect is apt to be found that will explain the low price.
 The janitor service should be thor oughly looked into. A good plan Is to inquire of other tenants in the apartment house as to how they are satisfied with their home Women have more insight into the selection of a home than men, and they are better able to judge the surroundings. Few men can select all apartment and really be satisfied In the months to come. so the main features are better left to the wives.

 Der the good things of life. forget ting the unpleasant ones If only for lime There need be but little formality at these observances: friends may offer congratulations. as they did one, two or more years back. The day Is certainly made an affair when husband and wife take over resembranCeS. and pleasant congratulations are received from n few friends.
 The first year Is sometimes called the "cotton anniversary" and sometimes men toned ns the paper anniversary Either may be correct. It Is just as the wife pleases She can either decorate the home with paper ornaments or with cot ton ones. There are many pretty things In paper to decorate with-dainty dolics table covers lamp shades and pretty nat ural-loOklng blossoms But 1t should be re membered that raw cotton Is lndammable when the cotton decorations are used and 1t should be made tireproOf If used A solution for this can be obtnined from almost any druggist. Cotton snOwballs. garlands of carded cotton and other pretty white ornaments can be strewn all about the rooms, giving splendid effect. The third year is called the Heather an- nlversary" by some and the flower anm- versary" by others. Here again comes the personal preference. Many pretty things can be obtained In leather The bride of three years may decorate her home with leather figures. and her dress may have leather ornaments. Many wom- en who have been married three years prefer the floral anniversary on &C., count of the advantage in decoration. Growing plants can be placed In every corner of the rooms, and the home other wise decorated with cut flowers.

ROUNDED KNIFE BLADE.

hNT1L the seventeenth century the ,nds of all knife blades were pointed. ~This can be easily understood when it is considered that knives in those days were used indiscriminately for hunting and table purposes. It happened that Car dinal Richelieu was compelled to entertain certain chancellor. who at the end of a meal was wont to use his knife as a toothpick. This act upset the Cardinal, and he ordered that the end of each knife In his possession be rounded So great was Richelieu's influence on the fashions and fn6s of that day that the knives were changed almost entirely.

@ AhEl autumn IS the tune Wneu
 the fat hunter gets busy. He Is
 probably the busiest little man N fin the whole city. and he Is
 not alone in hls efforts- Here and there futter the flat hunters, male and female. In their rounds over the city for a suitable apartment-a thing. by the way, hard to find. There is always something the matter with some apartment. It may have the finest and widest halls. a great big bedroom. splendid Kitchen, be in a good neighbof- hood-but, oh, that wall paperl It Is enough to cause one to wake up fin the dead of night with a terrible nightmare.
 Janitors of apartment houses are the gentlest, most sweet-tempered and oblig- ing fellows in the world about hat-hunt ing time. There is nothing they win not do for the flat hunter. They show every room, Its advantages the disadvan- tages must be sought by the hunter and the way all tradesmen come up through the basement door. Then the hardened fat hunter knows enough to beware, for after the lease Is signed the janitor Is not always the humble crea- ture he was before the agreement was made. To the novice in the hat-hunting business new things crop out each month after the apartment is leased. He learns the fine points of fiat like pointer dog on his last training trip.
 But the fat hunter should not be spoken of in the singular. It Is fiat hunters" And. by the wuy, the wife is one of the principal persons to make tue selection of home. She never finds every thing to suit her in any apartment Either the rooms are too small, the kitchen too large. the walls too dark. or something else just as important. It Is impossible to find the ideal apartment.

The selection of an apartment Is dih- cult no matter how much time Is taken up in the search. There are so many things to be taken into consideration that 1t is certainly a task to find the right kind of home. Real estate dealers who have the rental of apartment houses have lists printed for the benefit of the fat hunters. These lists show the location and costs of the various apartments. SO that the searchers can find their Worx somewhat easier by following the list.
 The average fat hunter has very little idea just what kind of an apartment he wants when he starts the search. but they arrive with each glance. This is usually the way a dat-hunting search begins:
 The telephone at the office rings with a terrific buzz.
 Hubby. with work piled on his desk until he is almost hidden. makes e hasty grab at the receiver.
 "Helo,'s ,.
 "Yes, this Is hubby"
 ''Oh. that apartment. You say you have one in sight and that I must come right awayT Oh, all right No. not much work. in fact, hardly anything to do today.
 "You say you have looked at 1t and It suits you? We'll why don't you take n then. Oh. you want your friends to see 1t first. We'll I'll be with you in just minute
 Hubby hangs up the receiver and dons his coat Then the search begins. The apartment first mentioned In the teie- phone conversation does not come up to expectat tons The outside hall Is too dark. Yes. there are other apartment houses on that street and from that street the searchers go on Into the next one, then the next and the next other searchers are encountered and all are in a hurry 10 make the best selection.
 The flat is not found on that day, or the next The telephone buzzes and buzzes many a time before hubby can rest easy. The wife usually gets the first line on an apartment she Is sure she would like-untii she sees 1t. There Is no use talking. the ideal apartment does not exist exrept fin dreams.

A WEAK WOMAN
and HER STORY
In Floral, Ark, Lives a Lady Who
Feels That Her Strength Was
Restored by Cardui.

Floral, Ark.-"I must speak a good
word for Cardui," writes Mrs. Viola
Baker, of this place.
"About month ago was in very bad
health. was so weak and nervous that
was not able TO do my housework.
"My husband bought me one bottle OF
Cardui, the woman's tonic. took ii ac-
cording to directions and now ] am in
good health.
81 think Cardui is fine tonic for weak
women"
And you are not the only lady who
thinks so, Mrs. Baker.
Thousands, like you, have written to
tell OF the wonderful benefit Cardui has
been to them.
Cardui contains no minerals, or other
powerful drugs. 1t contains no glycerin
or other Misunderstanding ingredients.
It is just a pure, natural extract, OF
natural vegetable herbs, that have been
found TO regulate the womanly functions
and strengthen the female system.
All druggists sell Cardui.
See yours about it.

CHAPTER XIV.
At Anv Price,


Mary was about TO resume her
clearing. But she altered her mind.
She went to the door and summoned
Tanta instead Then she came back
and walked towards the open win
dow as though to pass out on to
the stoep.
All the time Guy stood watching
her movements with a haf-smile
lurking in his black eyes. Now, as
she came towards the window, he
moved to speak to her, AMI his
action barred her way.
I'm glad the mails are in" he
said meaningly.
Mary paused lnstinctive,y she
drew herself up. Her alarm and help
lessness had suddenly vanished. She
stared coldly straight into his face.
Il should have thought you would
have understood by now that your
presence in this house was unWel-
comet is an intrusion. Please let
me pass. Tanta will see to your
requirements
Before the man couti reply the
housekeeper appeared, and Mary
turned TO her.
"Tanta, Mr.. Chalmer has had no
dinner. See what you can do for
him at once. He is in a hurry TO
be away.
The cd woman looked from one
the other. She could not quite un-
derstand. Mary's order was so sharp
and her eyes so cold, and the man
was looking at her in such queer
fashion. As she still waited her
mistress dismissaD her.
That will do, Tanta."
And the tone set the housekeeper
shuffling off abruptly.
Under the circumstances no doubt
you will prefer to dine alone" Mary
went on, turning back to her un-
welcome guest directly the door
had closed.
''On the contrary, | did not come
to .dine. | came to see you, Mary"
The smile had died out of Guys
eyes. AMI l have your husband s
permission TO see you," he added,
easily.
What do you mean?' she cried,
turning on him with flash of in
dignation.
Guy shrugged.
Has not your husband gone out,
leaving me to your care?'
Mary gave short mirthless
laugh
"Just so-for food"
And the common courtesy OF has
pitality. DO you still intend to sit
on the stoep and leave me-to the
food?"
Guy stepped aside, but Mary re-

about and went back to her favor
ite easy chair and sat down. The
halfsmile returned at once to the
mans eyes.
"1Nhat's better-its more digni-
fled. All, here comes 1anta.''
The housekeeper ambled into the
room with tray, and proceeded to
relay the table. When she had pre-
pared the meal, she looked up into
the mans face with no very ia
vorable glance.
Your foods ready" she said
