SATURDAY SETS
VALENTINE PARTY.

The valentine party given bv the
saturday Set, at the home of Miss
Allene Fields, Monday evening was an
unusually beautiful and enjoyable af-
fair of hearts. The parlor had gar
lands Of ivy vines extending from the
four corners of the room and crossing
IN the center. Along these Japanese
lanterns were hung and small parasols
to match were in the corners. Red
hearts were on the window curtains
Ike petals of crimson roses fallen in
showers and a portieye of red hearts
hung between the parlor and the din
ing room. In the bay window of the
dining room, under a great Japanese
umbrella, was a round table with a
Cluny lace cover over which violets
were scattered and with a glass bas
ket of violets in the center.
On the center table in the parlor
stood a big red vase filled with red
poinsettias. A white square yard of
linen bordered with red hearts and
having hearts scattered over it was
on wall and the beaux successfully
shot an arrow into these. Each pierre
ed heart had girls name on its hid
den side and the arrow revealed the
partner for each beau's first proposal
After every girl had listened to
proposal from every boy votes
were cast by the girls for the boy who
courted in the most gentlemanly way
and votes were also cast by the boys
for the girl who responded most grace
fully, either in accepting or rejecting
their addresses.
The couple receiving the most votes
were bride and groom in a mock mar
bons streamed out and when the
guests drew them forth each found
a comic face and sentiment. All were
provided with bags of corn for money
and used it in bidding for hearts on
which each guest had written his or
her characteristics.
Miss Matt Black was elected to be
bride and Mr.. Ed Henderson groom.
Miss Lucy Fields, maid of honor;
Mr.. Herbert Handy, best man; Mr.
Ralph Stringer, to bear cushions for
the nuptial blessing, and Mr.. Stanley
Welsh the clergyman.
Before the ceremony, Miss Made
Austin sang All That l Ask is Love-"
and then played the wedding march
After good wishes had been showered
upon the victims of st. Valentine,
refreshments were served and the
glowing evening faded into a misty
milestone of Joy on the highway of
life

frequently been. said to be the real
dictator Of the present regime In
Turkey.
Really, Gen. Sheyket is practically
subordinate to one of his own aids
and associates. He is not In the In
ner circle of the committee OF Union
and Progress. although a genuine
Young Turk. 1t is perhaps an incon.
siderate way of putting the case, but
l am credibly informed that he is
only a sort Of puppet in the hands
OF stronger men. However, he looks
the part of popular idol. Tall,
bearded, with small black eyes that
fash, he is veritable Beau Brummel.
He could readily be cruel man and
dictator II he had the power, else
| misread physiognomy. While we
talked he tWirled his nose glasses by
the handle, or rolled them on his fin.
gers, or twiddled his nose-the right
side Of which bears large vaccina-
ton mark. Frequently he tilted aside
his green astrachan fez and scratched
his iron-gray hair.
He is a charming gentleman to
meet, and he speaks with an apparent
openness that would disarm an IN
sceptical interviewer. He told me in
all earnestness and apparent sincerity
that there was absolutely nothing in
the rumored agreement between Rou.
mania and Turkey. although I had
other more trustworthy information,
which history has since confirmed,
that the deal had been made. He
speaks with the greatest optimism
concerning the future of the new
regime. The financial revenues In
creased by thirty-three million francs
during the first year and, because of
better methods of collection, a still
greater increase will probably be
made during the present year. The
situation throughout the provinces.

turbulent Albanians have been pacf.

may remark that one who saw the
arms the government took in, says
that they are only fit for a museum
and that the rifles and reYolvers
which can really do business are still
within reach of the warlike Albanians,

CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUM0R

Il think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard OF. My mother had child
who had rash on its head when it
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave US medicine, but it did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, box of Cuticura Ointment,
and a bar Of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolyent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
iful head Of hair. I think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
It makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept. 10, 1910.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment are sold everywhere, a sample
Of each, with 32-page book, will be
mailed free on application to "Cuti-
cura," Dept. IL L, Boston.
