with a few stout wire nails, leaving
the clamps on the side that goes onto
the leg. One barrel end will be for
a foot, the other for top. Take a
piece of cretonne or furniture cotton;
pleat it very fully and tack it on
around the top with preventive tacks
and any old brand of binding; catch
it in half way between the top and

discarded piece of gooos you have
and cover with center piece.

Guessing Contests for Porch Parties.
Girls who have been to recent after
noon porch parties tell me of these
contests which were used while the
hostess was putting the last finishing
touches to her refreshments. For the
first one cards were passed having
humble bees in water color on the
first page, and the second page re-
vealed the following questions, all to
be answered by words ending in
sting"
1, a sting that cures fatigue; 2, sting
that cures hunger; 3, sting that tides
your room; 4, a sting that makes you
laugh; g. sting that cooks your meat;

a sting that browns your bread; g. sting
that spoiIs your tools; 9, sting that
makes you read a book through; 10, a
sting that tries; IL. sting that adapts;
II. sting that shop-keepers dislike; IL, a
sting we observe in Lent; IA, sting tea
experts do; 10, a winter sport.
These are the correct answers:
1, resting; g. feasting; 8. busting; 4, jest

8. rusting; 9. interesting, 10, testing; IL,

Honey cookies and iced tea were
served and the prize was a cake of
honey from the hostess own bee hive.
This contest was used at what the
hostess termed IAN informal porch

MODERN PAPER GREAT TORCH
Enlightens Business Advertising as
Well as Disseminates News-Non-
Advertiser Handicapped.

When you have goods to sell the
first necessity is to let as many
people know it as possible, and as
soon as possible said Mr.. Wilson
Scott of Paterson, N J., in a letter
that he wrote to me the other day.
Continuing, he said:
THE most practical way to do that
is unquestionably by printed an
nouncements.
"a sign in front of a place of bust
ness would inform a limited number
of people-printed hand-bills would
tell 1T to larger number, but a
well-written description of his goods
in daily newspaper would be read
by a great many thousand times as
many people, and, best of all, they
will read it in more leisurely man.
ner.
"The advantage of advertising in a
newspaper is that the copy can be
varied in it's wording every day"
Mr.. Scott suggests to the merchant
that he apply as much thought to his
advertising as he does to the selec-
ton of his goods. Then he ought to
be sure to put his advertisement in
newspapers that are read by the
class Of people to whom he wants to
sell his goods.
He said that newspapers should be
used that reach the homes-newspa-
pers that have clean, bright, whole
some appearance, printed on a good
quality OF paper-newspapers that
can be taken home where a dirty,
fiimsy newspaper never gets an en-
trance
"The modern, up-to-date newspa-
per- he continued, sis a great torch
of enlightenment no less in business
advertising than in the dissemination
of news and education

vertise in good newspaper is handi-
capped in the commercial race by
him who does advertise He is kept
in the background. He should pur-
chase some prominence for prom

1t is better to have both. The
prominence he should purchase is
advertising in the daily newspaper.
