TURKEY TROT"AT HOT SPRINGS
Not Objectionable When Danced
Properly, Says Member of
Party. -

Hot Springs, Va, Nov. 12.-The
party that Miss Gladys Ingalls, has
been entertaining here broke up last
Sunday night when Miss Helen Taft,
Miss France Lippitt and Lieut.. Adol-
phus Andrews, U. S. n, returned to
Washington after full day in the
saddle, their ride being only broken
by luncheon at Fassifern Farm.
The fact that the Presidents
daughter danced the Turkey Trot'
at the hop in the Homestead hall
Saturday night occasioned no COM
ment, inasmuch as the "trot' had been
danced there every night for weeks
by leaders of society in New York,
Washington, and Boston. Miss Taft
learner the dance a year ago, and
danced it several times in the capital
last winter. She danced it her with
Lieut.. Andrews and Miss ingalls, bro
ther, Fay ingalls,.
One of the women in her party,
speaking anonymously, said Of th>
"t'ot":
"Objection to the dance can be made
only by those who have seen it danced
in other ways than as ii is polite
society. There are certain steps Tor
it. 1t is a dance that has to be taught.
1t is too bad if it has been abused"

The Titanic disaster made many
widows, rich and poor, women
who left the sinking liner In life
boats while their husbands re-
manned behind, that they and
other women might be saved.
A reader asks; 'Isn't it wOm-
ans duty to stand by her husband
even unto the end?
Mrs. Harriet Stanton Blatch.
president of the Political Woman's
union, is of the opinion that every
woman should have been placed in

ARE YOU FAT?

You know you can not stay fat,
don't you? That is, you can not be
fat and be in style. The day when
fat woman was tolerated Is pass
ed, Nowadays all women must be
In proportion or be ridiculous. This
does not mean you should become
skinny, however. You should not
get below the hard flesh line. All
That done you will find yourself to
be a well-formed and therefore
handsome woman.
Now, how can this be done? BY
exercising and dieting? Yes, and
no. These two means will bring
some results, but not easily nor
soon. One is very hard work; the
other is torture. Besides, neither
can be depended on to cause a uni
form reduction. They may take off
q fleshy shoulder, for example, and
leave the double chin untouched.
What you need, you see, is some
thing pleasant to take that with
out injury to your health will take
the fat off uniformly and quickly,
say at the rate of a pound a day or
want 1t to go.
For this purpose nothing is less
expensive, safer or simpler than
Marmola Prescription Tablets. In
expensive because one large case,
costing 75 cents only. will produce
results; safe because they cause no
wrinkles or stomach trouble, but
rather improve the health and COM
plexion, IL anything; and simple, be-
cause they do all the work without
asking thought or effort on the part
of the taker. In short, they are the
ANSWER If you are fat and wish to
be thinner. If your druggist is of
the better kind he will have them.

The finest compliment Va have ever

her: We always think Of her Is a
morning glory. because she looks 60
bright and CHEEKY and pretty At the
breakfast table. How many break
fast-tabIes are presided over by NO
men who make an effort to be dainty
There are a great number who are
al once untidy and even uncleanly to
look at
The claim that household duties
keep women from looking well In the
morning is easily disproved for in
many a household where the lady
gives helping hand in the kitchen a
big apron will thoroughly protect her
dress. and then, too, cooking. unless
one makes IL so, is never dirty work
That woman commits an error who
looks uncared for and badly dressed
in the morning.
The other woman, who wears any
old thing to the breakfast table Is
also making a mistake, for that is
the time when the men OF the house
hold ought to see a woman at her
beet, and not specially rely on her
appearance In the evening. when the
soft and charitable light of the gas
will hide many defects.-Selected.

TOO GREAT VARIETY.

Simplicity of diet should be point
of first consideration with all persons
upon whom falls the responsibility
of providing the family bills of fare,
since the simplest foods are, az rule.
the most healthfui. Variety Is need
ed; that Is, a judicious mingling or
fruits, grains, and vegetables; but
the general tendency is to supply our
tables with too many kinds, and to
prepare each dish in the most elabo-
rate manner, until in many house
holds the cooking of food has come
to be almost the chief end Of life.
While the preparation of food should
be looked upon as of so much import
ance as to demand the most careful
consideration and thought as to its
suitability, wholesomeness, nutritlve
qualities, and digestibility, it should
by no means be made to usurp the
larger share of ones time when SIM
pier foods and less labor would afford
the partakers equal nOurishment and
strength.
Eating simply for the qualification
of taste is a degrading custom. A
great variety of foods at one meal
exerts a potent influence in creating
love of eating, and is likewise a
constant Temptation to over-eat. Let
us have well-cooked, nutritious, and
palatable food, and plenty of it; va
riety from day to day, but not too
io+u OF
The prevalent custom of loading
the table with a great number of
viands upon occasions when guests
are to be entertained in our homes is
one to be deplored, since it is neither
conducive to good health nor neces-
sary to good cheer, but on the con-
trary is so laborious and expensive a
practice that many are debarred
from social. intercourse because they
cannot afford to entertain after the
fashion of their neighbors.
Upon this subject a well-known
writer has aptly said: simplify
cookery, thus reducing the cost of
living, and how many longing indi-
viduals would thereby be enabled to
afford themselves the pleasure of cul-
ture and social Intercourse. When
the barbarous practice of stufing
ones guests shall have been abolish
ed, social gathering will not then
imply, as it does now, hard labor,
expensive outlay, and dyspepsia. Per-
haps when that time arrives, we shall
be sufficiently civilized to demand
pleasures of higher sort. True, the
entertainments will then, in one
sense, be more costly, as culture is
harder to come by than cake.
The needless profusion of viands
now heaped upon the table, betrays
poverty of the worst sort. Having
nothing better to offer, we offer vic
tuals; and this we do with something
of that complacent, satisfied air with
which some more northern tribes pre-
sent their tidbits of whale and wal
rus. "-E. e. K, in Home and School.
