If a hostess is wise she will offer
an alternative and give a guest the
option of choice of pleasures or
occupations. A good hostess remem-
bers that a guest likes to have some
time in the day to be alone, to go to
her room, to rest, read or write let

hostess is careful that persons who
do not care TO play cards should not
be expected to do so. Everyone is
not enthusiastic about bridge, AMI
it is unpleasant to be asked to play
on a warm Summer evening. It goes
without saying that card playing for
money should not be allowed.
The hostess suggests the hour for
retiring. Early hours are KEEP in
quiet households
1t is not the custom to urge
guest to lengthen a visit. Regret is
expressed that the time for depart

visit may be repeated in the future.
A hostess should not be casual
about the arrangements for convey

Cruelty Deceived by the
''Movies.

your little Bertha who comes to mar
ry you"
Half dazed, Herr Justh took from
his breast pocket the photograph
Fraulein Bertha had sent him. Then
she broke down and confessed ev-
erything. She was so plain she did
not dare send her own photograph
So she sent the picture of a pretty
moving picture actress. And when
he asked for the moving picture
film, and sent the money, she had
to hire the same actress to act the
part. What else could she do? All
along she hoped Herr Engineer would
be satisfied with a good and faithful
housewife
And then Herr Justh simply turned
and fed back to his engineering job
and his handmade saleratuS bis
Cuits-a sadder but a wiser man.
When Fraulein Bertha, plucking up
her courage, followed him to Wind
hook and sued him for breach of
promise of marriage, all his pity for
her vanished. He told the Judge the
whole moving picture story, forti-
fed by Exhibits A and Band there
was nothing left for Fraulein Bertha
to do but take the next ship home to
Hamburg.

Well, that does settle it, Herr
Justh rushes forth to send his cable,
adding the words: Letter follows"
That letter contained another
check-two thousand German marks
this time, for Fraulein Bertha's out
fit and passage. Herr Justh was in
a mood to spend his money like any
inebriated sea-faring man.
Even sooner than Herr. Justh had
a right to expect, Fraulein Bertha
cabled the date of her sailing for
German South Africa. In a month
her ship was due! Then and there
Herr Justh foreSwore handmade sal

journeyed to the port city and pro
ceeded to diet himself on civilized
victuals and practise genteel man

should declare it all off.
He was at the steamers dock to
meet her, watching the gangplank
with eagle eye. Alas! The beloved

Heartburn, Gas, Dyspepsia and All
Stomach Distress Ended with
"Pape's Diapepsin."

You don't want slow remedy when
your stomach is bad-or an uncertain
one-or a harmful one-your stomach is
too valuable; you mustn't injure it with
drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for its speed
in giving relief; its harmlessness; its
certain, unfailing action in regulating
sick, sour, gassy stomachs. Its millions
of cures in digestion, dyspepsia, gas
tritis and other stomach trouble has
made it famous the world over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in

then if anyone should eat something
which doesn't agree with them; if what
they eat lays like lead, ferments and
sours and forms gas; causes headache,
dizziness and nausea; eructations of acid
and undigested food-remember as soon
as Pape's Diapepsin comes in contact
with tht stomach all such distress van
ishes, Its promptness, certainty and
ease in overcoming the worst stomach
disorders is revelation to those who
try it.-Adet.

There is considerable talk of limiting the players to native sons, but it is hardly expected this will be urg- led.
