A Good Thing to Know.

To increase the lasting capacity OF
candles, KEEP them in the ice box for
"a hours before using. They will
burn much slower, and to the up-to-
date hostess who uses candles con-
stantly this is quite an item. 1t is
quite customary to light the dining
room almost entirely with candles
placed around the room or the plate
rail, mantel and sideboard. These are
not shaded, and it is a very pretty
idea to have individual candles at
each plate, These are usually shaded
to protect the eyes.

THEIR POINTS OF VIEW
BY SARAH e. HIPP.

She was about nineteen and she
wore canoe-shaped hat with one red
rose dangling rakishly off the back of
the brim. Her cheeks were as pink as
baby's. The headgear of her male
companion had little bow at the
rear. His trousers had cuffs ct the
ankles and he had not shaved often
enough to have acquired the whitish-
gray complexion of grown up man.
The two fell into the chairs at the lit
tie table in the confectionery store
and ordered chocolate sodas with the
exuberance of youth.
Goodness" said she, following
with her eyes a middle aged couple
who had entered and taken table in
corner. Shouldn't you think when
people were as old as that they would
have got over caring for soda water
and ice cream?"
Il should say So" agreed the young
man. His expression was distinctly
plying as he watched the newcomers
The man was getting portly and.
while the woman's hair was arranged
in the latest mode, it was sprinkled
with gray and she had a decided ma
tronly look One could be certain that
she had tucked all the children in bed
before she and dad started for their
evening stroll.
Wouldn't you hate to be as old as
that?" said the young man. What do
you suppose people find to enjoy in
life at that age?"
Goodness knows!" said the pretty
girl. They can't go to dances any
more or have any sort of fun! l
should think it would be perfectly aw-
full! 1 read about a woman once who
was a famous beauty and when she
found her first gray hair she died of
broken heart. l know just how she
felt!'
You'll never get gray!" comforted
the young man. Not if you live to be
100. But l should think people like
those over there would envy young

folks like us when they saw them
getting so much enjoyment out OF
life! Why, they aren't even talking
to each other only now and then!
They're just bored with existence.
don't wonder!"
81 should think" said the pretty
girl as she daintily poised her spoon
and watched the persons under discus
sion, that they'd feel kind of silly
coming in here and ordering anything
SO juvenile as sodas! 1t seems funny
somehow! You never think of old
people liking such things!"
We'll never be as old as that" said
the young man meditatively. eve
won't let ourselves get so old. l can't
imagine you getting old, anyway.
You'll always be just as slim and girl
ish as you are now"
And think of you as fat as thar
mani" she trilled with laughter. 81
suppose they have grown so apathetic
that they don't care! Poor things!"
Meanwhile the middle aged man in
the corner was saying to his wife:
That's pretty girl over there with
the funny shaped hat"
"Yes," agreed his wife. 81 may get
one like it for Milly. How callow the
boy with her looks! Somehow it al.
ways makes me want to cry when
see two inexperienced young things
such as they are!"
81 know" said her husband under
standingly. They are so beautifully
sure of themselves and their knowl-
edge of the world! When you think OF
all they've got to go through"
"And all the disillusionment and
heartaches," said his wife. And ii
takes so many years to get to the
point where you can begin to under.
stand and really enjoy life! 1 sup
pose they fancy they're having good
time!"
"Silly children!" smiled her hus-
band. They're only playing with
tops and dolls yet! I'll bet they
haven't exchanged one sensible re-
mark since they sat down there!"
"She's got an engagement ring!"
said his wife suddenly. Think of in
fants like that marrying! Why, it's
terrible!"
You were only eighteen when you
married me-" her husband reminded
her.
"That was different" said his wife
quickly. I'VE had more sense than
those twoi They are so terribly mex.
perienced! Life must be SO empty for
them, really"
But they think they're having a
good time" said the man as they rose
"They don't know you have to be as
old as we are before you're really
happy! Poor things s!"-Chicago

Celebrating the Tin Wedding.


An author who was about to cele-
brate the tenth anniversary of her
marriage describes her plans in this
way:
For refreshments, will serve coffee
In tin cup, with tin spoons, and dainty
sandwiches on tin plates; will pass
water in a tin pail, using a tin dip
per. All refreshments will be passed
in tin pans, the walters will usea tin
coffee pots TO refill the coffee cups.
For centerpiece for the table, will
use a large tin cake pan, with an
opening in the center, in which
small fish horn can be placed. the
cake pan and fish horn both being fill
ed with flowers. Shall decorate the
rooms with tin as far as possible. In
one archway shall use tin plates tied
together with ribbon, a small hole
being punched in the plates for the
purpose. This will form a curtain for
one archway. In another archway
shall use tin cups for the same pur-
pose. Tin candlesticks can be used
If one is fortunate enough to have
them. Wire coasters tied with ribbon
can be hung on the walls to hold pho
tographs. Small tin spoons tied with
ribbons can be given as souvenirs, be-
ing passed around by the walters, in
tin dust pam
A few more suggestions would be
that the bride carry her bouquet in
tin funnel and the bridegroom could
have a very small tin horn in his
httt airin
quet. Potted plants and flowers may
be set in tin pals for jardinieres and
vases, and small tin basins can be
passed instead of finger bowls. Tin
foil may be put to various decora-
tive uses, not forgetting to wrap the
bonbons in it.

A Jack Horner Pie "shower.u


This is a pretty way to present the
gifts to a bride at a shower if the
articles are small like hosiery or hand,
kerchiefs. Make Jack Horner pie in
the colors the hostess wishes to have
and when dessert time comes (if the
occasion is luncheon) ask each guest
to pull her ribbon and as the package
is forthcoming, each one has some ex-
cuse to find like This piece of pie IS
too large, please hand it to Miss B.,
(the honored guest). And the next
one says: my piece is very much
too small, just pass it to Miss B."
This makes loads of fun and opening
the parcels adds zest to the occasion.
1t is well to have an appropriate senti.
ment written on the donors card to be
read aloud. Handkerchiefs and stock.
ings may be rolled and concealed in
tissue paper with fringed ends and so
look like the swapping motto favors SO
popular at all social functions. The
ribbons tied around each one and all
put within the pie.
