time he had very little education, but
by steady, industrious labor he has
won out and today is a promising
young lawyer. He told me tina he

employment in a machine shop at what
seemed to his mind a large sum Of
money, $12 a week He worked hard
for nearly three months, when one day
he received a telegram from his father
asking him to return at once.
Having left a delicate little mother,
he rushed home with all haste, fearing
to find some trouble at the n of his
journey. His father met him at the sta
ton and calmly explained that his hired
man a left and he could not get his
hay in alone. My young hero, not daunt-
ed in the least, informed his father that
he had given up his job to return homo
and asked what pay he was to receive
for his work. The father promised q GER

work the son asked for money to buy q

SOMETHING new IN
PLAIN CARD PARTY
Thoughtful Hostess Springs
Surprise Upon Friends With
Unique Entertainment.

This was an evening party and on
the invitations the hostess merely said:
Cards." so the guests were surprised
when the game Hearts was proposed
and the score cards were hearts for
the girls and arrows Tor the men, each
bearing a half of a quotation like this:
On a heart-"Two souls with but one
single thought"
And on an arrow-"Two hearts that
beat as one"
Or-"Needles and pins. needles and
pins"
And-"When a man marries his
troubles begins"
When a perfect sentence was formed
partners were chosen for the first game.
Still the guests did not know just what
all the love symbols meant. The cards
were Cupid" backed, and candy hearts
pierced were strung on to the gilt card
attached to the hearts and arrows to be
used as score cards and markers for
the game. For prizes there were heart
shaped picture frames in silver. The
refreshments told the story, for on each
plate of hea~rt-shaped ice cream lay a
pink tulip; in the petals were tiny
white hearts tied together with the
names of the engaged pair written in
gold ink. Congratulations followed.
This announcement was a complete sur
prise. as none Of even the "best
friends" suspected.

INCREASE IN CITIES
ADDS TO LIVING COST
Consumers In the United States
Are Increasing Faster Than
the Producers.

Washington-Special: Census figures
now at hand show that 1900
and 1910 the city population of the Unit
ed Stated increased from 81, 610, 900 to
AZ, 623, 900, a gain OF 34.S per cent. Dur
ing the same period the rural popula-
from 44,SS5,00 to 19,349. 900. Thus it
appears that in ten years the popula-
ton which consumes farm products in
creased II, 013, 900, while that which pro-
duces such products increased only a.
964, 900.
1t is also to be noted, as even more
important in it's bearing as an economic
factor, that in 1910 the urban, or con-
Suming pou1ation, was II, IT'S, 900 persons
less than the rural or producing pop-
u%lation, while in 1910 it was just the
other way about to the extent of e.

engeged in agricultural pursuits.
During the decade under considera-
ton the total population Of the Unitea
States increased by 49, Z 900, or 81 per
cent. In the same time the improved
acre from A. 9S, 900 to 47S,452,0 900 acres,
or 1874 per cent. The cereal crops for
1899 were grown on 1874, $50, 600 acres. For
1909 the acreage in cereal crops was
191, 1896, 900 acres, an increase of only 3.o
per In the same time the yield
l lie CeHedl crops Increased only Ii
per cent.
For 1909 the per capita production Of
cereals was 40 bushels, or more than
nine bushels less than it was ten years
before; but comparing the two years
the total value of the cereal crops
jumped from $1.4S2, 900, 900 for 1899 to
$2,665, 500. 900 for 1909, a gain of so per
cent. This reflects M basic cause Of
the higher cost of food supplies.
Relatively short crops last year in
tensified the situation as between con
sumers and producers Of food pro-
ducts.
In 1901 flour sold at sS.45 per barrel,
on May l last it was $40, both being
wholesale prices. Taking the same
dates for comparison, wheat is up from
81 cents to $1.22 per bushel, corn from
so to Sc cents, oats from 80 to So cents
per bushel. Beef have gone
up from SIS to liza cents per pound, hog
c~arcasses from II to IL cents and nut
ton from 81 to Is cents per pound.

TEN LUNCHEONS THAT
ARE EASY TO GET UP
The Lemon Offers Many Differ
ent Things For the Menu
Other Suggestions.

A lemon luncheon is interesting, and
there are no end of good lemon things
to eat: Lemon pie, lemon biscuit,
lemon cake. Tenor snaps, lemonade,
lemon candy, etc. The center of the
table should hold a lemon tree of d.
minutive sizc-any kind of tree will do.
Tie emons made from yellow silesia
upon the trees. Hand your guests each
"a lemon" from the tree-the funnier
the contents of the lemons the better
will be the joke.
2. Blue chine Dutch boys and girls
with china baskets suitable for holding
nuts and candy at a Dutch
are very inexpensive and can be util-
ized on many occasions. A pretty idea
is to use a blue and white tablecloth-
the kim used for children's rooms.
3. a college luncheon given at small
tables, where each table represents a
different college, gives play for plenty
colors, tied with ribbon to match, make
appropriate and effective favors.
4. A hat luncheon is always popular
with girls, and Is especially interesting
when the hats of different nations are
used as souvenirs. They are not diff
or colored cambria Dishes set in straw
hats are a pretty idea. or the first
course could be served that way.
5. All women are pleased with the fol-
lowing favors for a ribbon luncheon;
Make six sachets two inche square of
different colored ribbons, with a tiny
gilt safety pin attached to each sachet.
Tie the six together with a baby ribbon
and on top place a tiny artificial flow
er.
6. Ar animal luncheon causes much
fun. Be sure to have lemon pigs with
toothpick legs for the lemonade. A
small wooden circus of Mathis ark ami
mails makes an excellent centerpiece.
Velvet animal pin cushions make use
full favors.
Z. A feast of lanterns makes a good
Japanese luncheon. Follow out the idea
of the name In a darkened dining room.
This gives opportunity for all kinds of
Japanese effects. A tiny paper lantern
at each place can hold candy or nuts.
Japanese parasols are very good fav-
ors.
8. A lavender luncheon should be
given In violet or lilac time. Violets
scattered over a white cloth without
the usual c~enterpiece are extremely
dainty. Sometimes the stems are tied
in tiny punches with narrow violet rib
bon and Zigzagged over the cloth.
effective to place the sprays in small
baskets abou the table. Purple grapes
hould be the first course.
9. Many will enjoy rose ~luncheons in
June. Here are q few appropriate ia
vors: A nhaplet of small artificial roses
suitable for a girls evening wear, a
rose sachet, a rose pin cushion, tiny
straw hats with rose wreaths (bonbon
boxes), a satin rose for the corsage, a
bouquet of rosebuds for the hair.

pleasing, and especially If luncheon is
served at small tables, each decorated

ENTERTAINMENT SCHEME.

A hostess noted for her ingenuity in
arranging pleasant surprises for her
guests had this the other night for her
after-dinner pastime. There were just
eight people. and all thoroughly con-
genial and amenable to anything pro-
posed. so wher a huge ball Of carpet
warp was produced and the hostess
said: Now. Madame x, you must be-
gin a story as you begin to wind from
TINS ball and continue until the first
objects is found. then you weave it into
your tale and hand the a to your
next door neighbor." such fun as en-
sued; n the first article discovered
was a toy elephant. The Judge
came next, and, strange to relate, his
tale was woven, or rather wound,
around a collar bottom, and the next
object he found was a tiny Jap doll.

easy to carry out that l am sure

WALL PAPER
AN IMPORTANT TASK
Walls Should Conform In Tone
With Furnishings That Are
To Be Installed.

AS the walls form the background
for all furnishings, it is essential thai
these should be quiet in tone and in
perfect accord with the furnishings to
be installed. With the wonderful as
sortment of beautiful wall papers on
the market this season. it Is possible
for us to make our homes individual
and artistic. 1t is very often the in
~diViduality exercised in the planning
of u homes that transforms a COM
monplace interior into one of real ar
tistic merit.
In the well lighted or sunny room al
most n color that is not too bright
or strong can be applied. Brown, gray,
green, dull blues and some shades of
red can often be used in such rooms
with good results; but the choice of
color for rooms not well lighted is more
llmited-warm grays, yellow and tan to
reflect light.
n to give rules that would govern the
selection Of wall color and have as a
basis for this advice the meager in
formation as to whether the room to be
decorated is well lighted or not. This
would go a long way if the house were
to be decorated n furnished newly
throughout, but it is only the fortunate
few that can do hat. Most of us have
draperies, floor coverings and furniture
that must be considered, says a writer
in Today's Magazine. 1t, too, is not al
ways possible to change the finish Of
the woodwork. which must bear har-
montous relation to the walls.
Where old furnishings are to be made
use OF, 1T is sometimes found that a
tapestry paper showing a mingling of
SOFT harmonious colors will bring to-
gether difficult color effects in a room,
but when a figured wall covering is to
be chosen, the proportions of the room
and wall Cpnoac ,,,,p 10
studied. 1t can therefore be readily
understood why a set method cannot
be given for the selection of wall COW
erfngs that would be adaptable to uni
Yersal use.
When the new wall papers are put
out, n often has a desire to follow
the fad of the season. 1t is we'll not to
be influenced by this. but only by your
general surroundings; In this way you
VIII secure results of which you will
not grow tired. The same way to take
up this problem of rede~corating is to
assemble the furnishings and view
them from the standpoint of color
The background color, while
lzlng, must be less intense thar the
furnishings; otherwise these lose all
color value and look fnsipid.
h the living room on the first
floor open well together, as they so Of
ten do, 1t is a good plan, especially if
the rooms are small, to use the same
paper throughout or different shades
of the same color. This always adds
to the apparent size of the rooms. The
ceilings should be plain md the same
color throughout if possible. Often
dining rooms are paneled with wood.
leaving only a few feet of wall space
above which a generally be effective
ly treated with a tapestry paper or
frieze. Where this condition exists,
the colors chosen should bear close re-
lation to those in the adjoining room.
