for Prospective Bride.

Dear Miss Doom:
I want to give a luncheon for one of
the brides-to-be. The salad course will
be made up principally of fruit and the
last course will be ice-cream, but the first
two courses are a puzzle to me as yet.
Will you please help me out?
Is 1t the correct thing to serve a soup
for the first course? If not, please sug-
gest something besides oysters or grape
fruit.
I am going to use tiny individual glass
c~andelabra. each holding three candles.
Would it be proper to use with these
three"candlesticks with pretty shades? 1
think the latter always add so much to
the looks of the table, but don't want to
use more candles than is proper
Have you heard Of any new form of
shower for the bride? There will be a
number of different girls entertaining for
her. and 1 want mine to be as %inexpen-
sive as can be.
A VERY GRATEFUL SUBSCRIBER.
Cream of tomato or cream of aspar-
agus soup would make a delicious first
course for your luncheon, followed by
chicken ~'croQuettes and peas or lamb
chops and Parisienne potatoes, lunch
con rolls, fruit salad with cheese straws
and the dessert you have planned.
1t will be all right to use the can
delabra as you have suggested, but a
delightful way of arranging the can
dies is to use for the ce~ntrepiece a
dainty basket or appropriate vase
gracefully filled with flowers, and then
place the tiny glass candle-holders in
a circle about this. The three candle
sticks with appropriate shades blend
ing with the color scheme of the lunch
con could then be placed wherever you
wish to complete the effect.
A ten-cent shower of which 1 heard
recently, seems novel enough to war
ant many repetitions. The more guests
the merrier for this shower. They may
be invited by phone and asked to send
their gifts in advance, so that they
may be wrapped and tied in any novel
fashion that occurs to the hostess.
When the day arrives pile the pack
ages on a table or in a large clothes
hamper and auction them off to the
guests, providing each with an equal
number of beans representing dollars
with which to make their purchases.
The articles as they are purchased are
showered upon the bride.

To Grow Peach Trees from the
Pits.

My dear Miss Down:
Will you, If your time permits, answer
these questions In the evening edition of
the 10th or 18th instant: What will re-
move windowphanie from a window? Also
let me know If by planting a peach stone
will 1t ever amount to anything as a tree
and how long will 1t be before I will have
any fruit? I Would like very much to
have one, even if I had to await results.
If 1t can't be grown this way, let me know
how to go about getting a good one.
A CONSTANT READER.
I think h best way to remove the
windowphanie will be to sponge the
window with a generous supply of al
cohol and hen wash it with warm
water. If any of our leaders know a
better way we shall be glad to heal
from them.
Yes, peach trees can be grown from
peach pits. Use pits that have been
recently taken from the fruit, as they
produce better results than those that
have been lying round for a few
days. Crack the stones and plant the
pits a couple of inches underground.
To increase the chances of having q
tree plant several pits. In the fol-
lowing September take a bud from a
tree whose fruit you desire to culti-
vate and insert it under the bark of
Your miniature tree, which by this time
will be a little thicker than a lead
pencil. The following spring clip off
the top of the tree. In about four
years after planting the tree will begin
to produce fruit.
1t is a pleasure to hear from one of
our old-time friends.

A DAINTY LITTLE FROCK OF
EMBROIDERED WOLFE. !.
BY MAY MANTON

No material makes lovelier frocks
for young girls than the new embroid-
cred voiles. This one is finished with
bands Of cerise satin beneath the skirt
and lower sleeve edges and is worn
with q girdle of cerise. The touch of
color is very attractive and the COM
bination of red with white is eminent
-ly girlish, but although the model is
a simple one 1t can be treated in many
different ways. In place of the ribbon
can be used a little frill of lace be-
meath the points of the wolfe, or a bor-
der with a straight lower edge could
be chosen requiring no such finish, or
again the dress could be made of plain
material with the edges trimmed in
any manner to suit the fancy. The
skirt is just a plain, straight one that
can be either tucked or gathered at
either high or natural waist line. The.
blouse can be made with or without a
lining and consists of the long, straight
pieces arranged over the centre por-
tons, while the sleeves are stitched to
it. All the pretty bordered materials
of the season can be treated Just after
this manner and their name is legion.
Plain material could be trimmed with
inset landings or with lace edging or
in any similar way, or the model could
be used for the soft finished taffetas
and the foulards that are so varied,
The taffeta would be charming trimmed
with the quaint little frills or ruches
of the same and feulard can be finished
with frills arranged on a scalloped out
line or with scalloped bands. For the
chemisette portions can be used lace
or tucking or any ~all-over material of
the kind.
For the 16-year size the blouse will

CAN YOU?

A young oma aspiring for greater
things In the theatrical profession went
to New York to study with one of our
best dramatists. She had a fairly good
idea of dramatic art, was we'll endowed
with a good collegiate education, but
the very first question put to her by
the sleek-looking little Frenchman was
this: "Can re little lady walk grace
fully across the fioor?" She thought
she could, even as you and L" but
when she started across that large
auditorium under the gaze Of many
hundred eyes. some mischievous, others
envious, more than half wholly critical.
she realized just how awskwardly she
did walk. She turned her face to the
professor. who frowned like a thunder
cloud: "ze little lady nevvah walked
in all her life"

Dear Miss Doom
I wish to entertain about ten boys
and girls at nay house some evening
mex week, and wish you would sug-
gest some amusing games to play.
The ages of the guests vary from Is

preciated by an interested reader.

Peanut parties are always enjoyable.
Have a generous supply of peanuts
concealed in the rooms in every spot
imaginable, and when the guests ar
rive provide each with a paper sack
and let h hunt begin. After a half
hour call time and count the spoils,
and award a box of sailed peanuts for
the greatest number and a bag of I'M
shelled nuts for the smallest.
Next provide some peanuts, tooth
picks, pen and ink, tissue paper and
gum and allow ten minutes for the
making of a doll, awarding any simple
little prize for the best effort.
The idea may be carried out with the
refreshments, serving peanut sand
wiches, coffee, sailed peanuts, peanut
candy and ice-cream with peanuts.
Write quotations and place inside of
peanut shells, one for each guest, and

If you want further amusement a
clever way to fill a half-hour is to pass
papers bearing at the top these words:
"What we do not know" For the boys
sample questions would be, "How
would you make out a dinner menu
for six persons, your allowance being
two dollars and a half? Give items"
"How would you make and trim a
lingerie waist?'
what is meant by a gored skirt, and
what is applique"
For the girls give such questions as,
