FACTS CONCERNING
WEDDING INVITATIONS

The first point to be thought out in
the arrangements for a wedding is
the adjusting of the invitation list. The
relatives Of the bride should head it. 1t
is rather a doubtful point whether formal
invitations should be issued to them or
friendly ones, and as regards the nearest,
friendly notes should be written in place
of formal ones.
The invitations sent to the bridegroom s
relatives also require a little judicious
handling. If formal ones are given. it is
often found expedient to inclose them in
an explanatory note, specially to the pa
rents Of the bridegroom. SupposinS, for
instance. that the brides parents are
able to ask them to stay at their house
for couple of nights for the purpose OF
attending the wedding, arriving on the
day previous to it. and leaving on the
day after 1t has taken place, each ana
all OF these arrangements have to De
stated in note accompanying the lnVi-
tation. From two to three weeks is the
average notice given, but in the case OF
relatives a longer one is required. when
many pros and cons have to be consld-
cred relative to acceptance.
Even If bride has no relatives she
cannot issue invitations in her own name.
although she may be past thirty. Ihe
only way out Of such a difficulty is for
her to be married from the house or
one of her married friends, and for the
Invitations to be issued in the joint names s
|, Of the said married lady and her nus
band. A widow without female relatives
may issue invitations in her own name.
but even in this case a married tr;end
should be asked to assist in receiving
the guests and in taking up the post OF
hostess when the bride vacates it.

GRANDMOTnERS
USED sage TEA
To Darken the Hair and Re
store Gray and Faded Hair
to Its Natural Color.

1t is easier to preserve the
color of the hair than to restore
it. although it is possible to do
both. Our grandmothers un-
derstood the secret. They made
sage tea" and their dark.
glossy hair long after middle
life was due to this fact Our
mothers have gray hairs before
they are fifty. but they are
beginning to appreciate the wis
dom of our grandmothers in
using sage tea for their hair
and are fast following suit.
The present generation has the
advantage OF the past in that it
can get a ready-to-use prepara-
ton called Wyeth's. Sage and
Sulphur Hair Remedy. AS a
scalp tonic and color restorer
this preparation is vastly su-
perior to the ordinary sage tea"
made by our grandmothers.
The growth and beauty OF the
hair depends on a healthy condi-
ton of the scalp. Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy quick
ly kills the dandruff germs
which rob the hair of its life,
color and luster, makes the scalp
clean and healthy, gives the hair
strength, color and beauty, and
makes it grow.

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth. Cameron.

The more I look at the faces about me
and l never take a ride on the trolley car
or a walk on the city streets without
studying faces-the more it is borne in
upon me that beauty and the lack Of it is
or coloring.
When young girl reads something like
the above statement in a talk like mine,
or hears it from an older woman, she
almost always turns up her nose men,
tally, and thinks to herself: HIN, that
sounds all right. but it doesn't work out
in real life" And if she is plain. she
goes on envying the girl with the regular
features and fine complexion; Or if she is
pretty, in the ordinary sense of the word.
takes satisfied look at herself in the
mirror. You see, I know. because I've
been there myself.
But, girls. we are all wrong-you and l.
That isn't just morality talk. It's true.
Nothing on earth mars a face more quick
ly than an unpleasant expression. Moth
ing makes us turn away offended more
than a cast of features made disagree
able not by the modelling of nature. but
by the thoughts and character Of the
possessor.
without a sneer on her lips. No matter
what she speaks of. that sneer comes and
goes, disfiguring what might be a pretty
face. Don't you dislike to look at her?
I'm sure do.
Then there is the face with the dis
satisfied, discontented mouth, and the
face marked and marred by sensuality,
and the features defaced by an ugly
frown between the eyes.
Suppose any one of these faces to De
fitted with Grecian features and a perfect
complexion. VIII YOU love to look at it?
Indeed, no.
The other day I saw a woman with
large, irregular features, scraggly brows,
thin straight hair, and a slight hair line
on the upper lip. And yet, those unat-
tractive features were illumined by SUCH
a happy. cheerful, lively expression that
1 truly enjoyed looking at that woman
more than at the pretty bu characterless
young face beside her.
A face that is illumined by cheerfulness,
or transfigured by intelligence and inter-
est in life, or lit up by the wonderful
steady light of an inward peace and
serenity, cannot be plain.
You may still think this is just morality
talk, but II you will only study the faces
about you am sure that some day you
will come to realize it is much more
than that.

SARTORIAL HINTS.
BY Elizabeth Lee.

How pretty is the millinery for the
small girl compared to what was worn by
/ them only a few years ago.
Until the child was. at least seven years
of age she was doomed to wear nothing
but the stiffest looking land feeling) hats
While there We're only a very few models
| to choose froom.
| The harsh straw in a turn-up Breton
sailor severely trimmed with a band of
ribbon or velvet around the crown and
ends hanging down the back was the ac-
cepted piece of millinery, subject to only
slight variations of trimming. Not Bit
of shade for the tots eyes unless the
child could stand the sun no longer and
so pulled down the brim. But this was
not always allowed. because the bending
was apt to crack the stiff straw. and. OF
course, breaking followed. But all this is
| changed and the small girls millinery
| is just as attractive nowadays as her
| mothers.
Cunning little mushroom shapes that

was GApeCleu ~ wear
| The bonnet then really heated the head
coming down to far in the neck. while
the entire face was exposed to the sun
and other diScomforts. The little hat OF
today rests highly upon the top of the
head. shading the face, the air freely
circulating around the head
| The millinery is SO simple, too. that
very dainty hats can be made al home by
any one who knows how to sew. I saw
a lovely little mushroom shape covered
with ruchings of taffeta pinked on the
edges, the ruchings just sewed on round
and round until every bit Of the founda'
ton was covered. The facing was shirred
with white chiffon. and the trimming, q
wreath of small ribbon roses. The tafeta
ruching can be bought by the yard if cne

caught on the left side with a buckle OF

teur to attempt.
The frames covered with white taffeta
ready for trimming are most con
venient and quite. inexpensive. AL
the trimming necessary is a dainty
scarf, soft ribbon or ribbon flowers ar.
ranged as fancy dictates. Fer more prac-

tie mushroom shapes in brown and navy
blue flexible straws. Striped or polka
dot soft ribbon is very smart used as a
trimming on the straw hats in brown
and white or blue and white as the color
of the straw is chosen.
The spcckled straws are always in good
taste, and, of course, plain. solid colors
in ribbon should be used for the decora-
| ton.
| Flowers are not pretty trimming
for sreckled straws. but velvet ribbon is
very effective.

HOW AN ENGAGEMENT
SHOULD BE ANNOUNCED

We have advised young people to an
nounce their engagement and thus sat
isfy for a time the well meaning curios-
ity of their friends. Both their parents
and they themselves must expect to be
asked a great many questions as soon as
the happy news is made known. "Ail
the world loves lover" and every one
is eager to learn all that he or she can
about a successful love affair. We should
be verj careful, however, not to cross
question the persons interested about
matters which do not concern us. 1t is
not polite to ask how much money or
what salary the prospective bridegroom
has Neither should We be too eager to
learn whether the prospective match is
really liked by the parents. Ii they
have sanctioned it We must not INQUIRE
any farther. unless We are on terms OF
especial intimacy with the parties con-
ccerned. People often say: Il hope tnat
you like your future son-in-ia". or
trust your daughters engagement Is sucn
as, to please you" If the parents are
we'll bred persons and have the right
feeling in the matter they can make only
one reply to such questions. Even II
they do not altogether like the match
they will not tell THIS 10 the world
Why should they?
with regard to the method Of an
nouncement, here. as in so many other
social matters, the simplest is the best.
We do not advise inserting notice In
the newspapers. The case of marriage
is altogether different. since the parties
enter into civil aud religious contract,
which is made matter of record by the
laws of most states Of the Union.
The best way is to name a day in
the near future when the enga cement
will be announced to the world at large
In the meantime the young people tell
their relatives and intimate friends the
wonderful tidings, asking them to keep
usually necessary to write some notes.
especially to those living at a distance
II the young couple have a large circle
of relatives ard others to notify the
mothers usually write some Of the let
ters, which are of an informal charac-
ter
Some young women invite their inti-
mate friends to luncheon, where they
announce the engagement. Various in
senious devices may be used for this
purpose, but care must always be taken
not to give the matter frivolous as
pect. To have the engagement ring make
its first appearance at the lunch table
would be to take a serious matter alto
gether too lightly. In these days, when
We so often hear the sad news Of d.
vorce, it behooves our young people to
enter into the new bond in the right
spirit. This should be spirit of joy
and happiness surely, yet touched with
the seriousness demanded by the prospect
Of a union to last until death do us
part"
II the prospective bride feels that she
cannot make the pleasant announce
ment herself. her mother or sister may
do SO for her In few simple words
while the guests are still at the lunch
table. FLORENCE HOWE HALL

engineers are stripping a fifty foot

lake with hose which carries 1900
gallons per minute. The hose has a
three and half inch nozzle.
Mr.. Stoner is furnishing the cleo

trical power will supplant steam in
the operation of the Minnesota
mines. A 100 horse power motor is
used in connection with the pumps
