THE art of being a good hostess
is a subtle one. Grace ana
compoSure of manner. and
certain necessary practical qualities
help to make the ideal hostess. Not
only does a good hostess possess the
gift of making each individual guest
feel at ease, but she remembers the
tastes and habits of each; and, while
planning for their amusement, she
understands the secret of making
them thoroughly comfortable.

man South Africa-decided that Herr
Justh was justified in not keeping
his epistolary promise to marry her.
It is a moving tale-in fact, a
moving picture'ale, as you will pres
emily admit
Wife material was scarce down in
South Africa, where Herr Justh was
engineering prosperously the while
he washed his own shirts and baked
his own indigestible saleratus bis
cults. He really wanted a wife, and
he was in urgent need Of a good,
plain cook and laundress. So, when
no saw Fraulein Bertha's matrimo-
NAL advertisement in a Berlin news
rluer he responded with alacrity
and his photograph. also with his
financial situation, according to spec
fcatons
In due course Herr Justh received
from Fraulein Bertha a charming
letter enclosing the photograph of as
neat and pretty a German girl as
any German South African engineer
could desire for a bride-and cook,
et cetera-
Your photograph" wrote Fraulein
Bertha, "pleases me so much, and
the account of your prosperous con
dition is so straightforward and
frank that ! can hardly wait TO hear
what you think of my picture
His own handmade saleratus bis
cults having at that time caused

hard to bear. Herr Justh could hardly
restrain his impulse to send Frau

her to come on at once and be mar
ried. Prudence prevailed, however.

amusements are planned, it is sensi-
Bile to give hint about them. This
enables a guest to decide what
dresses to take for the visit
Arrangements for meeting guests
at the station and bringing them to
the house should be made. Their
luggage should be taken charge of
and placed in their rooms. These
attentions are occasionally over
looked by an indifferent hostess, and
an unfavorable impression is made
on an arriving guest.
A hostess is. of course, cordial in
her greeting. Friends arriving from
a distance are offered tea or some
nefreshment unless the hour for a
meal is near Women guests are
shown to their rooms by the hostess
with as little delay as possible. Men
are shown to their rooms by serv-
ant.
Before the arrival of a guest a
good hostess sees that everything for
convenience and comfort is in a
guests room. There should be plenty
of towels. fresh water and new soap.
Most persons have the habit of A
daily bath, and a guest should have
the use of a tub either in her
room or the family bath room, if
there is no separate bath room for
the guest room. At the bedside
should be a light stand with candle
and matches. Even where there Is
the convenient electric light, every
one likes to have matches close at
hand. On this stand Il guest should

Easy rules about breakfast are
customary. If possible, a guest Is
offered the option of having a tray
sent to her room or coming down TO
breakfast. When the men of the
family take an early train it is often
better for a hostess to send a tray
upstairs than TO Oblige IA guest to
hurry down for the morning meal.
Coffee or tea, rolls and butter, a
cereal, an egg and fruit are sent up
on a tray.
