CONDUCT WITH STRANGERS IS

Tenderness. and Chivahy Natural Impulses to Men and
Women Among Kmsmen and Friends, Should
Be Extended to Others.

+, still are found thoughtful, chivalric. and
kind, then their chivalry is the brand
that reaches deep down.
| Real Test Is with Strangers.
| II one cares to Judge Of men and wom-
en- and how they will stand the wear and
tear of daily living through all the years
! to come, don't look at their actions when
there is the softening. impelling influence
of love to prompt them. but follow them
out as they brush against the folk they
do not love. If they stand that test, there
is no need to look any further. And II

There is the brand that is always on
duty. no matter what the setting. whether

For, while it is easy and really quite

Aunt Sally's Advice
to Beauty Seekers

X c. F. says: My skin becomes so
greasy every summer, and this so attracts
dust and dirt that i have an awful time
keeping my face clean looking. Can you
suggest anything" The method men,
toned in reply to Eloise will overcome
this condition.
D. n. A writes: How can l get rid of
crowsfeet and wrinkles about the mouth
rorners?" Use wash lotion prepared by
dissolving l OF. powdered saxolite in u
pt witch hazel This tightens the skin.
lending to disperse wrinkles. and its tonic
effect is more than temporary.
Eloise says: My freckles are worse than
ever this year. made doubly conspicuous
by a pallid complexion. Is there any
curer' Ask your druggist for an ounce
Of mercolized wax, apply nightly like cold
cream, removing in the morning with
warm water. As the wax gradually and
harmlessly absorbs the affected cuticle,
not only will the freckles vanish. but the
new and younger skin which appears will
have a healthy color. Probably you Will

CHILDREN's CORNER.
Doll House.

For making this small playhouse, which
has no outside walls, two large squares
of cardboard are needed. A good size
Is twenty inches on each side. Take one
square for the floors. cut the other square
in two, so as to make two pieces each
sxl9 inches for the walls. Fit the wall
pieces together as shown in the diagram
by Sitting each up five inches and over
tapping the cut edges. These rooms are
to be respectively: Kitchen, dining-room,
bedroom, and parlor. Cut connecting
doors and windows where you want
them. Now fasten the walls to the floor
by pasting strips of paper at the lowest
angles. or by sewing stitches of strong
thread at the ends and the middle,
Having your framework you are now
ready to decorate. Get pieces of wall
paper or other fancy paper and paper
each room al your taste dictates. A green
and white parlor. q blue bedroom, and n
red dining-room would look well. Take
paper lace from q candy box and make
lace curtains; bit Of pretty silk or cloth
will make nice portieres You can put
pictures on the walls IL you want to,

EPISCOPAL MEN TO
 HEAR FATHER SILL
Master of Kent School Will Speak At Corporate
 Services.
Clergyman, Noted As Pulpit Or- atOr, Is Member of Order
 of Holy Cross.

For several weeks past there has been movement afoot among a num- Der of the laymen of the local Episco- pal parishes to hold a church service designed especially for the men of the Episcopal churches in Bridgeport So well has the idea been received that arrangements have been com pIeted for corporate communion service of Bridgeport's Episcopal men to be held next Sunday morning at 8 o'clock at Trinity Church, Fairfield avenue and Broad street, when the Rev. Frederick H. Sill of the Order of the Holy Cross will be the celebrant. An invitation is extended to all the Episcopal men of the city to attend this service. Trinity Church was se- Iected as the place for the corporate communion service because of it's central location.
 On Saturday night, there will be a. preparatory service, for the corporate communion of Sunday morning. At this service Father Sill will also be the speaker. The Rev. Frederick H. Sill is head master of The Kent School for Boys. He has spoken in Bridgeport previously to this time, and is regarded by the people of this city as one of the most forcefuI and appealing orators of the Episcopal Church.
 NeXC sunday evening, there will be a mass meeting of the men and wo- men of the Episcopal Church of this city and their friends at St. PauTs Church on kossuth street. Father Sill will be the preacher. The service will begin promptly at 7:3o and al- ready over 200 men have signif1ed their intention of being present
 From present indications it is be- Heved that nearly 500 of the men and boys, communicants of the Episco- pal Church in Bridgeport will attend the corporate communion service at Trinity Church on Sunday morning, as well as the preparatory service at the same church building on Satur- day night.
