 Elizabeth: I hope yOC will write soon again as I enjoy your letters. Didn't you laugh outright when you read Huidas trip to Leonard Bridge ?
 C. n, $. 1913: l have attended a picnic al Riverside, and am acquainted with vour aunt It is certainly a pleas ant place to spend a vacation.

 QUEEN BESS-The original story, The Oak and the Dog, received and ac. cepted. It will appear in due time.

 JANE GREY-The omission was an oversight. You will receive due credit and reward.
 PRONOKED-Th Editor is fully aware of the disappointments trials and provocations of the Social Corner; but it is teaching him as well as others patience and self control. There are 16 senders or excellent poems, 90 writers Of stories and 12 writers of letters, at least. who are wondering why their contributions do not appear. and some may think they have gone into the waste basket when they are only wait ing a chance. It is easier to write short letters than long ones and it Etves a larger per cent. of the Sisters a chance. The Editor makes no com plaint has no favorites, and tries to manage the Social Corner for the best interests of all who write and all who read

AUNT JERUsHA MAKES A GUESS

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis terS: l am so interested in reading the letters 1 can hardly wait for them to come.
 The letter last week from A Mother did please me, as it reminded me of an old maid who worked for families in the town of H. some forty years ago. She always talked to herself and when not talking she was singing just "Oh Q. Oh Q! Oh e." over and over; and when it came to ironing she just pounded out the clothes; you could count every stroke. The folks. as well as herself. have been resting for years, but it brought back lots of such little thoughts to me when she mentioned ironing in that way.
 The recipes are all such nice ones hardly know which to call the best, for all are good.
 How true: Honor thy father and thy mother" I have known just such a thing to happen myself; but it is a heartless son to do it. but you know when rum is in wit is out" l guess that is about so. ] don't think it is much good to vote all the time and not put what they vote for into force. Such foolish things they make laws over. If it is necessary to have such laws, why put them in force. or they are no good. If l were a voter l should want to have things done as l voted.
 like the Suet Johhny Cake that Grandma wrote about. l like all things made of cornmeal
 Clara of Canterbury May I ask if you did not live in Dayville, Conn? l think we have met several times. Should like to meet you again. You send in some recipes just like what I always use. l am not very much as a maker of fancy dishes. but l can cook a good dinner from the garden and hope We will have a better season for | gardening this summer. ] just live on a garden. and 1t is better than cake or pie.
 How interesting the story Of the last visit to Grandpa's, and sad it must | have been for the little girls parents l but it does happen a good many times I wish you all the best there is. AUNT JERUSUA

M. RoENA MISSES COUNTRY LIFE

Dear Editor and Sisters of the Social Corner: To, the winter is past. The rain is over and gone: the flowers ap- pear on the earth, the time of the singing of birds is come.'
 To me, this is the most beautiful season of the year. How I love the springtime! The early Easter flowers. the green velvety grass. the singing of the birds. Robin redbreast is my fa- vorite bird. How stately he treads on the soft green grass. and how sweety he sings his chccry song. How the robins song of praise lghtens our weary hearts and creates within lis a desire to hear that new song that is sung only by the redeemed ones,
 l ana wondering if my little birds will come again this spring. and will they miss the warm welcome they have received. or will a stranger welcome and make them feel at hOmer
 The English sparrow is about the only bird We see here in the city. ] had hoped to be in the country enjoy ing these bright spring days in the maple grove in @ western state, but these frail bodies of ours often prevent us from doing what We most desire. but believing firmly as ] do that the Lord guides and directs our pathway in life, I cannot but trust him and feel that all things will be for the best When days seem dark and clouds hang low. I look up and see the patch of blue and know that Gods love is broad and deep and what to me seems dis appointing now will end. l am sure well.
 With best wishes for Editor and all the writers and readers Of our Corner I am yours sincerely. N RptN \. Camden \

sUNFLoWER's INQUIRIES
 FOR CO., SOLID

Dear Social Corner SisteEs: do not know wether it is Master, Mr., Miss or Mrs. Co-solid: Which shall l call her? It gives me great pleasure to answer your inquiries of the 3Oth ut, for see that your head is sadly twist ed on some points, and l shall be glad to set 1t straight
 First: Four girls 10 each boy 2 Very strange, indeed, where did you receive such infOrmatiOn2 There are to be sure, more girls than boys; but there are certainly not four girls to each boy. Considering the boys as the minority party as you have done, why don't they speak up and suggest that either the cumulative, or the limited vote plan, be practiced? That was just my point in my last argument The boys lack common sense and backbone"
 Secondly: From what did you take that quotation eff may ask) :? Yes, allowing your statement (that minors cannot obtain liquor from sa loon -keepers) to be true. l still stand back of the statement that mothers have a right to protect their helpless children, etc. If minors cannot obtain liquor from saloon keepers. but they will procure it in some roundabout way just so long as there is license Besides, the children are very often abused and disgraced by the father who comes home drunk.
 Thirdly: Politics are corrupt and women can correct them. Vain jeal- ous' you must tell me about before ] can answer that.
 Fourthly: In what way does the husband of the suffragette suffer. suf- fer. and suffer- Does he pine away for his wife, while she goes to the polls to vote?

be in this progressive age In time gone by a woman started in by getting down on her knees. taking up her carpet, carrying it out into the yard. many times beating it herself, and after washing windows and paka then tack it down. and that was conn pleted: another room was commence0 and finished in the same way until all were done and poor tired mothers back would ache for a week after wards
 But dear sisters. J hope none of you do house cleaning this way now. I find it very good plan while the weather is still cold to open up the house. to clear all closets, bureau drawers. trunks. and so forth
 Then when the weather is favorable just hire a vacuum cleaner for the day tit costs but a. dollar and a half) and will clean all your carpets without taking them off the floor. besides all mattresses, plush furniture and drap cries.
 My son of fourteen does all this for me The rest of the cleaning is easy work, and q woman is not all worn out when the housekeeping season is over.

with two tablespoons butter and two tablespoons flour.
 Pures of Lentis-Pick over pints of lentiis and soak over night. In morning drain and wash well Put on to boil and cook hard and fast until they go to pieces. As the wa ter evaporates add more. Shred in a leaf of parsley, four stalks celery two leeks and an onion, four ounces salt pork. Cover to simmer until all are soft enough to rub through seive. Bind with tablespoons butter. two table spoons flour and one teaspoon sugar. Serve with slices of lemon in the tu- reen and small squares of brown bread fried in butter served separately on a plate.
 Peas, beans and lentils are legumes containing much protein, which is the same muscle and tissue builder as is contained in meat 1 find bacon fat an excellent substitute for butter in binding the above soups to keep from separating.

lsA5EL's METHODS IN FLoRl.
 CULTURE.

Dear Sisters: As this Is the season when our thoughts turn toward seeds and planting, 1 am going to write you few suggestions which 1 hope will prove helpful for the Sisters who are flower lovers. It is so interesting to study seed catalogue plant our own flower beds, and tend the young plants. It is time well spent, for out of door life Is what we need after being shut up more or less for the winter.
 For covering @ trellis or an insight Iy place, we want rapid growers. such as the morning glory, the yariegated Japanese hop or cobea. This last is very rapid grower, with beautiful foli- age and large bell-shaped flowers, the blue being the showier. Give this a foreground of scarlet salvia or dwarf
 crimson zinnias and the effect Is beau tiful
 Start the seeds indoors in April and plant them singly in cans, placing the seeds edgewise and covering with nearly an inch of soil. Keep in a sum- ny window and water lightly. At plant
 ing time, If the soil is quite dry, the plants may be slipped from their pots with no root disturbance.
 For a porch screen, or an arbor plant, scarlet runner beans alternately with wild cucumber seeds, and as they bloom early by midsummer the effect of the scarlet blossoms with the fra grant white cucumber vines is indeed lovely.
 The meOnfower is one of the most beautiful climbers and has dense foli- age and is ideal for porcheS. The flower is a curiosity inasmuch as one can watch 1t unfold in all its beauty. Late in the afternoon 1t opens and my neighbors often come to watch it with me, as but few people seem to have seen this rare flower.
 Nasturtiums all through the year may be had if early in April seeds are planted in 8 rich soil in a 12-Inch pot. | Thin out in May, leaving nine plants. Place the pot outdoors and train the foliage on twine fastened to a piazza if you like. On Oct. 1st remove the pot to a sunny window by cutting back the plants and unfastening the twine, re- fastening 1t to the window The blos- soms will continue until spring. I have written thus at length about trailing vines, for so many people who
 want a rapid climber always use the
 morning glory, and although that Is lovely, there are other vines just as
 much so and not so common, and if we
 are planting annuals we might as well | have a variety.
 When preparing your beds for plants
 give them a liberal sousing of boiling
 water. If this is thoroughly done 1t
 will destroy weed seeds, and put a i speedy end to all insect life. After the | plants are set give the bed a dressing with sand to prevent reinfection. | There are lots more things I wish to | say, but my letter is becoming too 1 long.
 | Gienwood: Thanks for your appre- citation of my last letter. Yours are l always helpful
 Corndower: Your suggestions were
 fine. I have put some of them to use | already. ISABEL.
