The Married Man.

Dear Miss Poynter,
l come to you for help, for I don't
know what to do. l have been going
around with a young man from the
West, and we were engaged to be mar
ried. One day another friend of mine
met him and told me that he was mar
ried. asked the first man If my
friend had told me the truth, and he
said that he was married, but expected
to be divorced within a month He
said that he didn't tell me about 1t at
first because he knew hat I wouldn't
have anything to do with him. r
haven't seen him since. but he phones
me every day and begs me to let him
call. | always refuse, but am perfectly
miserable about it. What shall l do,
Miss Poynter? HEARTBROKEN.
Your friend was wrong to win your
affection under the assumption that he
was free. He should have told you
frankly that he was a married man
and then delayed paying you any at
tention until he could h~onorably do SO.
You are right not to permit him to, call.
If, when he is free, you feel you can
overlook his first mistake. you will
have to act according to your own
heart and conscience and your knowi-
edge of the a

Miscellaneous and
n
Otherwise.
Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
kindly tell me q nice way to give a
miscellaneous or linen shower and a
way of entertaining the guests. By
doing the above you Will win the
thanks of a FAITHFUL READER.
Owing to the weight and awkward
size of some OF the gifts the ways of
giving a miscellaneous shower are
rather limited. One good method is to
put all the gifts in a large clothes
basket entirely covered with white
paper roses and drawn on a child's ex-
press wagon, also attractively deco
rated, by two little children, one dressed
as a bride, the other. as a bridegroom.
When the children are in front of the
prospective bride one of them should
make one appropriate speech and give
the wagon into her charge. If you do
not care to go to the bother of deco
rating the basket you may have a
child dressed as q messenger boy de-
liver the gifts.
A linen shower may be given more
easily. The gifts may be wrapped in
crepe paper and large pasteboard let
tiers, which when properly arranged will
spell Best Wishes or some other APP
RAOPliolO PNh ON0i 0oSAh
package. The prospective bride may
be requested to go into a room in which
the guests are hidden. and at a given
signal they may shower her with the
gifts. Before the party proceeds any
further she should be requested to put
the letters together until they form the
correct words. Another method is to
tie the gifts to the ribs of a p~arasol
- "a A It'd
Her first thought will be to open 1t,
and when she does this the gifts tied
with ribbons will hang down from the
inside. A third method Is to put the
gifts into a large pan and cover it with
pie-crust in which the prospective
brides monogram is cut She nay be
told that the pie is all for her and be
requested to cut II. A fourth method,
which may be used In either a mis-
cellaneous or a linen shower. is to put
the gifts into n suitcase severed with
white paper roses and tied with white
ribbons. This may be delivered to the
bride by a small child dressed as Cupid.
Instead of attaching the names to
the gifts some quotation which will APP
ply to the giver may be put on each
package. When the recipient has
spelled out the words for which the
letters on the outside of the packages
stand she may take out the enclosed
slips and read them. having the guests
write down the nam of the person who
presented each gift. When all the
slips have been read a prize may be
awarded to the person making the
largest number of correct gliesses
Each guest may be presented with a
dish towel to hem and a prize be Of
fered for rapidity and neatness. The
towels should, of course, be presented
to the one for whom the shower is
given. If you desire to close the after
noon with cards the game of hearts is
appropriate to the occasion. However,
after the shower is over you will find

FASHION has probably always given
l plenty of encouragement to the
woman who Is inclined to extravaganza,
but seldom has the one who likes quiet
and simple apparel found her wants
so we'll provided for as they have been
of late. To her the little o~ne-piece
dress of satin, serge or silk serge 50
much worn now is the realization OF
an ideal long sighed for. Simple as j
is, it needs only a good material and
fin accessories to give it IN air of dis
tinction.
The most charming OF ali these little
frocks is the one in white silk serge,
which is dressier and more summary
than any of it's relatives. One model
in this material is made especially at
tractive just by differing n little in cut
from the usual little serge or satin
dress. The most interesting variation

TWO SIMPLE ICE.SAVERS.

Another Ice saver is to place a folded

SOME HELPFUL HINTS.


To remove aniline (this is the name
of a huge class of dyes made from coal
tar) stains. which are usually very
stubborn, use liquid opodeloc-a soapy.

causes the stains to disappear at once
To remove ink stains from tan or
brown shoes, make a little chloride Of
lime into a paste with water. cover the
stains with the mixture and after an
hour or two wet a rag and wash off
the chloride of lime.
In polishing a brass cornet, 1t al be
made brighter and will keep clean
longer If 1t is polished with crocus pow
der and sweet oil, finishing the lustre
with dry crocus and a soft cloth.
This is the season of the year when
most people feel impelled to gather
shells at the shore. If these are in
tended for ornamental purposes they
should be polished. Mussel shells are
best polished by rubbing them with
the finest emery powder, wet, on a
piece of flannel, hen polishing with
oxide of tin or putty powder, and finally
with whiting, applied with soft channels
or the ball of the thumb without a
cloth. When polishing many shells use
a weak solution of hydrochloric acid to

polish as above.

To Press Linen Suit.

Dear Miss Doom:

sort of stifenirE matter in the water
that they use in pressing linen suits, as
when j dampen and press it my suit is

readers help me about this? hank

arabic to one quart of water, apply
lightly with wet cloth to the wrong
side of your suit and press dry. This
imparts a new appearance to the linen.

Simplicity of New Gowns
+FFFFF*FFF1

some similar combination, worn over
a white washable slip. with a lace or
net yoke n sleeves, is a costume that
will carry one through many vicissi-
tudes. Instead of having a lace yoke
in the slip, n car have onc sewed
into the dress itself. If the edge of
the dress at the top is finished by hav-
ing a narrow tape stitched securely on
the wrong side, the yoke can be sewed
on by hand and taken out when it
needs washing. Irish crochet is a good
choice for the yoke and the finishing of
the undersleeves, as 1t is practically
im~perishable.
Cotton wolfe, being so thin as it is,
demands a trife more elaboration than
some of the other materials reckoned
among the serviceable ones, but a few
touches of satin are sufficient, and these
will not unfit a gown for a useful
career.

NEWSPAPERS AND PR cEs.

The newspaper business is one sort
where increased prices do not go.
While labor and raw material and
machinery and everything entering
into the cost Of manufacturing a
newspaper has been going up in price
the cost of the newspaper has re-
NAMED the same, or else declined in
price. Even the price Of advertising
space per thousand Of circulation has
declined. The Randolph tVt.) Her
aid well says concerning these facts:
We doubt if there is business
where a dollar is more fully earned
than in the average newspaper Office.
Certainly, as compared with former
years, a great deal more is expected
and given for the dollar. Newspaper
revenues! are from subscriptions and
advertising. For the former larger
and better paper, involving infinitely
more work and expense to the pub
Usher, is given-at no greater, and
often at less price. And every pub
Usher knows that it is twice the work
to handle the same amount of display
advertising that it was fifteen years
ago, due to the frequency of changes
and the exactions of difficult copy to
be followed with cuts, borders, pan
els, etc. An ad put up slapdash out
of two or three cases of old type,
without style or ornament, doesn't go
nowadays. The publisher doesn't OBJ
ject to the improved discrimination,
but the advertiser generally COM
plains if asked to pay extra for the
added material and labor involved.
Except the item of print paper, ey-
cry element that enters into the COM
position of newspaper is more cost
ly than ever before, and the6publish-
er feels as keenly as anybody the gen
eral upward trend in the cost of liv-
ing, yet he is expected TO keep sell
ling his wares at the same old price.
When he is told that he must pay
more than he used to for this and
that because it. costs more he wonders
what his patrons would say if he
tucked on for the same truthful
reason.

The challenge is issued by ]. j

follows:
That I can raise bigger pota-

In order to take no advantage
