The white spots on your polished
dining table may be avoided if you
will cut out rounds of pasteboard
and sew thick white buttons on one
side. Place hot dishes on the button
side and allow a current of air to get
under the hot dish.
Meat patties for luncheon dishes
are economical because they can be
made from almost any kind of cold
meat.

imagine, IL we can, the time
When George, in velvet coat,
Sent perfumed notes to Martha's bower
Or lovelorn verses wrote,
When Cupid sent his piercing rays
In George and Martha's counting days.
And when, perchance. he went to WOO
Mayhap his snowy lace
At wrist and throat just brushed across
His blushing Iadys face
And eyes met eyes in fondest gaze
In George and Martha's counting days.
So picture to yourself her smile
AZ there on Bonded knee
The lover kneit by Martha's side
And vow'd his eonstancy.
For theirs were lovers old. sweet
