Nowadays you must tell your guest
when it is time to go as well as wnen
to come When you write to invite
your friends tell them by what train
they are to come and give them all
needed information as to their route,
writes a contributor to the Woman 5
Home Companion. You are not guilty
OF a want of hospitality when you
state the time of their departure as
well as that of their arrival. This
wise custom, which has gained great
ly in popularity within the past few
years, makes for the comfort OF all
concerned. In these days of rush en-
gagements, attention to this detail is
obligatory.
Never fail to meet your guest or TO
have him met promptly. Plan long
enough in advance to make sure of
the carriage or motor being at the
station when the train pulls in. and
If possible have q member OF the
family meet and welcome the arrival.
We may say we wish to be treated
like members of the family when we
are staying with our friends. and in
a way we mean it--or think we do.
None the less we enjoy having
agreeable persons invited to meet us;
we like to have little festivities ar
ranged in our honor; we are pleased

It's best to hit first and debate after

"No debate. mind you," protested

A Mesh Bag and Falling Hair

Dear MISS Doom:
Will you please publish in your
column way to clean u silver mesh
bag and also give me remedy for
falling hair? Kind regards from
MABEL II. Fl. :.
Rub the mesh bag with u paste
made of finely powdered whiting
and alcohol, using an old tooth
brush for the purpose. Polish with
soft flannel. and after the bag Is
thoroughly dry remove the powder
from between the links with a
brush. Bi-earbonate of soda may be
used in the same way.
Brush your hair thoroughly every
night, using at least one hundred
strokes. The. sooner the dead" hair
is removed the better. The follow
ing Is an excellent tonic for falling
hair, I'm told:
One pint bay rum. one-half pint
clear alcohol, one-half ounce castor
oil, one-quarter ounce carbonate am
monia. one-half ounce tincture of
cantharides.
Mix thoroughly and rub into the.
scalp at night.
Massage will help your hair con-
siderably. ] would advise you to
have it done once or twice by pro-
fessional, or until you learn the
correct movements, as improper
massage is worse than none.

The New Potato Ricer May
Be Used for Many Things

The familiar potato ricer, which
consists of perforated drum through
which the potatoes are forced by
pressing down the upper part with
lever, is seen in an improved de-
sign.
The drum is now supported on a
strong bar of galvanized iron which
clamps to the table after the fashion
of meat chopper.
This prevents the wobbling of the
masher and allows more purchase and
less waste motion.
A bowl may be placed under this
stationary masher, which can also be
used for making apple sauce. jellies,
purees, az we'll as ricing potatoes.
