A Carnatlon Luncheon.

Now that Queen Mary has desig-
mated the carnation as the coronation
flower it is enjoying increased popu-
larity. very smart luncheon was
given for girl who is soon to be a
bride The table was set for twelve
the centerpiece was a low glass bowl
filled with dozens Of pink carnations;
in circle just above the place plates
were punches of the same carnations
twined with loops of pale green ma
line. Afterward, when dessert was
served, each girl pulled bit of the
maline nearest her and brought out
the bouquet intended for her. To it
the bride tied notes sealed with gilt
hearts telling the happy news The
candles were shaded with exquisite
creations of pink silk with gold braid;
the holders were crystal twined with
smilaX The place cards were pink
carnations cut out and tinted with wa
ter colors, the names were lettered in
gold and green. A charming conceit
was the dessert plates, heart shaped
decorated with carnations and the
brides monogram in gold. These were
ordered especially as a gift and made
by clever woman famous for her
original work In ceramics.

A WIDOWS LUCK

A woman tells how coffee kept her
from insuring her life:

from trouble with my heart, with
severe nervous headaches and neu-
ralgia; but although incapacitated
at times for my housework, l did not
realize the gravity Of my condition till
l was rejected for life insurance, be-
cause, the examining physician said.
my heart was so bad he could not pass
me.
This distressed me very much, as
| was q widow and had child de-
pendent upon me. 1t was to protect
her future that l wanted to insure
my life.
Fortunately for me, l happened to
read an advertisement containing a
testimonial from man who had been
affected in the same way that | was
with heart trouble, and who was bene-
fitted by leaving off coffee and using

disappeared, gained in flesh, and my
appetite came back to me. Greatest
of all, my heart was strengthened
from the beginning, and soon all the
distressing symptoms passed away. No
more waking up in the night with my
heart trying to fly out of my mouth!
Then | again made application for
life insurance, and had no trouble in
passing the medical examination.

German valenciennes Is better liked

summer.
Coarse blue linen frocks embroider-
ed with blue and coral silk are fetch

Among dainty little fancy effects for
neckwear are clusters of small silk
roses with plain silk for stems.
An odd fancy is to show little frills
of maline on the inner hens of silk
coats and deper ruffies of 1t edge lin

Cameo sets are chic and wonder
fully pretty with summer gowns. They
include belt buckle, cuff buttons and

Maline lace holds first place in pop

used on rundown collars Of embroi-

Silver sets for running ribbons of

PIGEONS HATCH A CHICKEN

! have two fantail pigeons, both
male birds. and | noticed one day that
they built a nest and then were sit
ting on it alternately, as if they were
going to hatch eggs, says a writer in
the Strand.
1t struck me that it might be a good
idea to put an egg of my bantams
into the nest to compensate the
pigeons for the trouble they had TAX
en- in building it. Apparently they ap-
preciated my doing so, as from that
time they never left the nest for about
three weeks, when to my great sur.
prise / found little chicken peeping
from the pigeons nest.
1t was touching to see how the
pigeons tried to feed the chicken by
opening their beaks, as pigeons do
and inviting the youngster to help
himself TO the contents Of their crops,
which, of course, it refused to do, be-
cause it is a chicken and not a
pigeon. The pigeons are very fond of
the little one and take it under their
wings to keep 1t warm whenever it
wants it, exactly as a hen treats her
chickens.

On January Sd. precisely at three.
And the quaint grandmothers who

And quainter still were the dear lit
tie mannerisms Of each delightful old
lady. The costuming would have af-
forded amusement enough, but we had
provided little slips of paper on which
were written questions about each
grandma present; the tea she used or
didn't use. The first question was:
or what tea is Grand Graham fond?
Answer: Honesty.
Another question was:
OF what tea did Grandma Holmes
drink too freely in her youth? An
swer: Naughty.
Other questions were:
What brand of tea do Grandma
Halls guests drink often? Answer:
Hospitality.
What tea does Grandma Gray dis.
like? Answer: Partially.
What tea does Grandma Biddle drink
too often? Answer: Frivolity.
And SO on through as many brands
of tea as there were grandmas pres
ent. The answers were given as cha.

which proved the art was by no means

TELESCOPES MADE FOR TWO

In Switzerland. at various promi-

observation telescopes by means of
which visitors may survey the won

found inconvenient to have telescopes
through which only one person could
look at a time, and the existing in.
struments were replaced with glasses
which allow two people to use them
simultaneously.
The new instruments are double.
barrelled, and, Of course, have a dupli-
cate set of glasses and prisms. They
produce a wonderful stereoscopic eff.
feet, everything standing out boldly
and clearly and appearing to be but
few yards away.
With the instrument shown, objects
40 or 80 miles away can be detected
with comparative ease. This is due
to the clear atmosphere Of the Alps,
in part; but. nevertheless, the new
telescope has a much better range
than the old variety. Moreover, it is
attractive to gaze at the scenery in
company with a pleasant companion.
