MRS. J.. w. RANKIN ENTERTAINS.
Pleasant Occasion Last Monday i'm
Honor of Bride-ElcCt.

On Monday afternoon last Mrs.
Jesse w. Rankin entertained most
delightfully."- at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. NJ. T. Hughs in honor Of Miss
Gertrude Biemann, a lovely bride
elect of June 18th. The guests on
arrival were received by Miss Lilly
Hughs, sister of the hostess, and
uShered into the spacious living
room. When all had assembled
Mrs. II. II. Hughs, seated at the
piano, began the well-known we'd
ding march Lohengrin), and the
door opened to admit Mrs. Rankin,
attired in her brida. gown and veil,
and on her arm Miss Biemann, dress
ed in dainty pink figured null. Mrs.
Rankin then informed her guests
that on June s, 1911, she became a
bride. She then gracefully gave the
bride-elect of 1914 to her groom,
with a pretty little speech of con-
graduation.
Papers were next passed round,
on which each guest was asked to
make a fairy wish for the bride-to-
be. This was heartily entered into,
and when all were ready each in
turn read her wish, after which they
were collected and given to Miss
Biemann. Mrs. Rankin then asked
the ladies to solve a pretty little love
contest, and when time was called
several had been fortunate in hav-
ing given all the answers correctly.
Mrs. j. A. Steck was successful in
the draw for the prize, a lovely lit
tie pin-cushion, which she presented
to Miss Biemann.
After a few moments spent pleas

vited into the dining room. where a
lovely table was spread and a tempt
ing sweet course set forth. Mrs.
Rankin had prepared for the fair
honoree a surprise shower. and over
the centre Of the table hung a large
work bag, which, when opened,
proved to have concealed in it's ca
pacious depths everything needed for
mending. embroidering, etc, and on
the cards accompanying the various
gifts from those present were aDDrO-
pirate words Of love and good
wishes.
Before this happy gathering dis
banded Mrs. Rankin charmingly rem
dered an amusing mOnOlogue on
Boys" which created a gale of
merriment. The souvenirs and dec
orations we're in keeping with the
occasion. n the little button bags
each guest received will prove a
dainty reminder of a most delight
full afternoon.

POliteness.
PoliteneSs is to do and say

Poitencss is to do and say
The kindcSt thing i'm the kindcst way.
Some BOYS and girls think that polite
ness is just bowling TO Il person. or dol
fling ones cap at the right time or Civ
ing up ones scat in the cars. or
course. il is polite To do these things
gracefully. but If they are done Grossly
or grumbingly they are far from po-
lite. Why? Because politeness IS
really not so much Of outward show
as it is of inward feeling. If You feel
kindly toward any one you can't help
doing the things YOU want TO do in the
kindest way you know how TO do them
Bowling. giving up ones seat. letting
the lady 20 in or out first. rising when
grovn-up speaks 10 you-all these are
polite forms which grew UP because OF
the kindness of people which always
makes for geutlcneSs and comfort.
A savage, if he feels kindly toward
any one, really acts politely, and,
though lie may not call it politeness.
il is nevertheless the most real kind
of politeness.
The word polite comes from the
Latin word "politus," polish, but re-
member that the ordinary polish which
We generally know is easily rubbed of.
Real polteness can never bs rubbed
of, because it is so deep in us that
nothing but ourselves can alter it.
Have you ever heard person say 4:
oh he is polite when everything
goes well. but the test of 4 real gentle
man is his actions during any disagree
able, uncomfortable time In other
words, during excitement our real self
asserts itself, and If our deep down
real SELF is kindly, courteous, or, in
other words, really polite, then no
crisis or excitement can rub our pol
ish" off, because il is deeply imbedded.
Let us try 10 be really and truly and
deeply polite!

the operator shifted it ever so slightly

the 2-cent Columbian.
Tho man who laid the transfer roller
on tho tTudson-Fulton plate first laid
on tho first four stamps and afterward
found he had them too low to come out

then attempted to remove the designs,
and succeeded only partially. The plate
was Furnished and the stamp designs
started little higher. but the STAMPS

DOUBLE TRANSIT GRS.

sometimes the plate receives a double
transfer or shifted transfer al ac-
cidcnt which rarely occurs under the cN-
pert handling Of the instruments by the
present makers OF United States postage
stamps But il has occurred, and quite
recently. Double transfers occur on the
plates which were used for the lately
discontinued parcel post stamps, on the
1-ccnt and scent, but ] am going TO tell
YOU about others, and for the present let
Won see whether YOU can discover the
double" designs on those two stamps for
yourself
Soon after tho issue of the 3-cent
purple stamp of tho Columbian series OF
1895 a variety was found which showed
part OF the design missing at the lower
right corner. This IS the common stamp.
which was printed by tho millions and
which everybody saved in like quantity.
\ year or so ago the subject was once
again taken mp by collectors, and this
time they found several varieties on
which minute differences AT tho lower
right corner we're discovered. The Illus
,ration % will show the normal design

frame line stops at the eleventh hori-
zontal line from the bottom Of the de-
sign In We find the line stopping At
the same place with a small portion be-
tween the fourth and fifth horizontal
lines from the bottom Of the design. I'm
4 and the vertical line stops lower down
on the stamp. and the small portions
below are AT varying distances from the
bottom, while is a variation Of the
same.
You can now sec why common stamps
are as entertaining and interesting TO col
lcctors as rare stamps. A single one OF
these varieties may be OF very little
value. but if YOU can pick out and form
a collection Of them. and use a little
