II you are very fond OF birds there is
in New Hampshire a little village that
will delight you TO visit. Meriden-"the
Bird Village" they call it's Just a tiny
hamlet. away from the railroads. prob
ably not on the map at all. But II is
quite worth while. none the less, in the
estimation of its Inhabitants, who love
its maple-shaded streets, its fresh white
houses. its tidy lawns, flowers and all
the charms OF q prim little New England
village.
But most of all they are proud of
the birds attracted from far and near
to the Meriden GARDENS, where they
build their homes. rear their young. sing
their songs the summer long. and some
times stay through the winter months
because their human friends extend such
bounteous hospitality.
Built Cosy Houses for Them.
1t was something like two years ago
that Mer!den folk began to realize that
they We're fond of birds and would like
them for permanent tenants of their
trees. But they could not invite the birds
by dreaming about it. so they built coy
little houses, hundreds of them, which
are alluringly placed on the main street,
in the quieter ways and in the gardens
everywhere. Scarcely a garden that does
not somehow fling out a card Of welcome.
Sometimes It IS in the shape Of free

NECKLACES TO WEAR.

All the girls are collecting necklaces

favorite necklace is Of amethyst-coiored
crystal beads and clasps with silver
bar: another is of bright red opaque
beads and a third Is Of composition
resembling turquoise.
Because yellow is so fashionable this
season amber beads for necklaces are In
great demand. The ornaments are
prettiest when strings Of graduated
lengths are used to form series OF
chains, one of which comes close 10 the
throat, while the lowermost falls halfway
to the belt
White necklaces are particularly fad.

Nv JULIA CHANDLER MANI.

Another proof that the world has
awakened thoroughly to the fact that the
most important lessons which we can
teach young children is that of sef-con-
troll, to think clearly. act wisely, to keep
a cool head In hours OF danger, and be
able to reason out in their own minds
the proper course of action at critical
moments, was the opening last week in
New York City Of the Museum Of
Safety" where children will be given in
struction in a most appealing manner,
IN what they should do and should not
do while out in public thoroughfare.
The idea is to present to them the
foolhardy things that thoughtless folk,
both children and adult, often do in the
streets, some times with tragic results,
in such way that they will remember
the instructions given them in their play
as well as when they face actual danger
Unique Demonstrations.
The manner employed by the Museum
Of Safety Of presenting to the child mind
the dangers ever present in the streets
of our modern city, Is as interesting as
1t is unique. There are model trolley
cars and little dolls which are used for
demonstration purposes The young pu-
pills watch their teacher illustrate with
dolls how folk should get on and of the
cars. the danger of going behind one
car and being struck by another, and
all the other possible accidents which
may occur to the thoughtless.
1t seems like very interesting play to
the little ones. and in a way it is, but
the greatest lessons We learn. the most
helpful and most lasting are those we alb
sorb when We have no knowledge of
learning a lesson at all.
In connection with the talks and
unique demonstrations given, a little
textbook is issued by the museum for
the children containing thirteen ''don'ts."
which are as follows:
Don't hang on behind the car.
Don't stand on the car steps.
Don't touch a wire, 1t may be a live one
Don't put your head or arms out of the
car windows.
Don't run across a car track in front of

Frosted Ham, French Style.

A Buttonhole Hint.

In nearly all Of the ready-to-wear
shirt waist and lingerie blouses sold IN
the shops the buttonhole will be cut
parallel with the opening. and II there
is the slightest strain on them when the
blouse is worn they will either come I'M
fastened or will cape open in a most dis
couraging way.
There is really no way to remedy this
fault in the bought waist unless you are
able to match the material and cut away
the strip of material having the button
holes in It and stitch on a new piece in
which you can work the buttonholes
horizontally. as should always be done on
every blouse that is to be worn buttoned
In the back.

GOOD SUGGESTIONS
CONCERNING BEETS
They Should Not Be Cut Before
Cooking.

The summer time is the time to COM
mence TO eat beets. II you have not been
eating them before. The new beet,
steamed or boiled, then sliced or chop
ped. and served simply with butter. 10
delicious The beet, however. must be
cooked until it is very tender
Each individual may suit himself as to
the amount Of butter, IL the beets are
served nice and hot. Although the beet
may be served with various sauces, there
is no way in which all its excellence
comes out like that with butter.
Beets must be most carefully washed.
but they cannot be touched with a knife
or have their tap root broken. Cut OF
the stalk an inch from the vegetable.
II they are wounded in any way, they
not only bleach out in the boiling. but
| they lose some OF their favor. OF course.
the skin comes of as easily as possible
after boiling, when they are dropped in
/ cold water, and they should be skinned
at once.
The beet cut in various forms makes
the most attractive OF garnishes for
mayonnaise salads, but served quite plain
it is an excellent salad OF itself. On a
lettuce leaf and covered with French
dressing is as good a way to serve the
small rounds OF the new beets as any.
This is a pretty salad. Or the beets may
be chopped. nodded and turned out on
lettuce leaf and served with the same
or a boiled dressing.
Served in a bowl on top of white
crisp lettuce with mayonnaise the salad
is a change from tomatoes served in the
same way. Onions may also be COM
blned with the beets in salad sort
OF calico hash salad may be made by
mixing small dices Of beets with pota-
toes cut in the same way, the same
quantity OF each, seasoning a bit. then
serving the whole with French dressing.
The beet is one Of the few things that
We make an any-day pickle of, but by
boiling the vinegar before covering the
beets with it-letting It cool a little-and
sealing the beets so covered with II, we
may make a more permanent sort Of
pickle 1t is one OF the least expensive
Of pickles. although it does not go far,
not as far as the most other sorts. On
the other hand, It Is less trouble to make.
Though beet pickle is made to-day to
eat to-day or tomorrow, 1t should be
bottled or at least covered and not al
lowed to stand in open dishes, as 1t
sometimes is. II kept in a cool place,
even without sealing. beet pickle will
| keep well, especially IL raw onions in
slices are put in with the slices of beets.

20 Killed in One City in May.
During the month of May. this year.
twenty-nine children were killed in the
streets Of New York. to say nothing of
the large number who were carried to

the growth of the League OF Safety, hop
ing to draw the older as well as the
younger children. into its protection.
In an interview with a newspaper rep
resentative, Mr.. Williams said:
While certain very learned men arc
bemoaning the falling OF in the birth
rate and crying for larger families, would
it not be much more to the point to con-
serve the lives of the children We have
and not kill them of at the rate of

movement will eventually become a part
