! VISITORS ETIQUETTE ]

I IT 1AST summer the young ladies of a
 fashionable and well known college were invited to spend the week end with a fashionable family in one of our large cities on a lake.
 Arriving at the home, accompanied by their dean, teachers and assistants, one can imagine the grandeur of this domicfle when it is known that each young lady was given her own room. A retinue of servants attended every want, and their social program was one continuous round of pleasantries dances, buffet luncheons. campfire parties at night on the lake shore, with frequent automobile trips to and from the city.
 Immediately after this publication the young ladies returned to their own homes. scattered throughout the United States. A young lady in Ohio received an official looking letter. typewritten, inclosing a list of articles left at the house. This list contained hundreds of articles, everything from gold pins, hats, collars, nfghtgowns. and the like, to tablets and envelopes, a list more than two feet long. She was asked kindly to check off such articles as be- longed to her and they would be ex- pressed to her at once all charges pre- paid.
 s.I was never happier in all my Iife,'' remarked the girl, than when wrote to my hostess stating that no article belonged to me that I had been taught how to care for my clothes, how to pack them, and was pleased to know I had not added to the household con fusion by leaving articles of Nnlue in her home. I certainly pitied the girls who did. I know my hostess dislil<ed anything of the kind, as does any Wo- man with regard for her home"

fTHE table which holds the Thanks

 Use the best tab1ecloth that the house affords and have it Ia4mdered to per Gectfon. A damaslx cloth with the design Am autumn leaves is the most appro- prfate- Have the color scheme of the table carried out in shades of gold r1sset and brown. with here and there a faint touch of green Tn the center of the table arrange a mound of nuts about a large vase of green glass, which should be filled with leathery chrysanthemums, yellow and brown and rich red in color. To please the children have three or four dirninutive brownies in the act of playing football over the nuts. These funny little men will help to make the dinner a jolly affair.
 Have the table lighted by six candies. Select yellow ones and place them in Dresden china candIestfcizs shaded by yellow silk chrysanthemums. The rest

of the room should be lighted with lamps.
 The latest idea for dinner cards is to have the card bent so that it stands up like a little frame. At the top an. ex- quisitely made paper chrysanth heuurn is tied, and the name of the guest is written below it in gilt. straight across the card.
 The souvenirs of a Thanksgiving dinner are also important They are passed tos each guest right aftar the ices. which should be in the form of small turkeys The kewpie souvenirs are most in demand this year. Little pumpkin shaped bonbon boxes covered with yellow crape paper and support ing on the cover merry-littie kewp dressed in yellow paper are suitable for inexpensive souvenirs. The boxes are filled with chocolate pepperTnints 9th CT boxes in this same shape have a brownie playing football on the cover. They are made of thick, water color paper and painted with whole swarm of little brownies. Brownies tied to packages of chocolate wrapped in gilt paper are sold for Thanks sgiving sou yenfrs, and so are turkeys in gold and red standing proudly on top of the packages.

: FloWerpot Cookers For the Children

TE yod wantste keep the children quiet
 and happy for a long morning set them at dowerpot cookery. It is a game they will not have enough of in many mornings in fact. for it's possi- hilities are many.
 Get a good big fiowerpot for each child. The large twelve inch pots make the most successful stoves" Set a good sized candle in low cand1esticl and place the dowerpot over it, bottom side up, in such way that the flame is directly beneath the hole in the bot tom of ths pot. The candle should be just long enough to reach the hole. Over this tiny but efficient burner all sorts of cooking can be done in little cake tins. Tiny bits of meat can be brofled. potatoes can be cut in tiny cubes and fried. little pieces of bread ran be toasted. and water may be boil ed Eggs, too, can be fried. one at a time.

 Quite often she can find a Iandlady who will furnish room for her like

OPEN NECKS AND HEALTH

PORTRAITS of famous beauties who have kept their good looks late in life always show that they wore open necks and heeIIess shoes. says phy- sician writing in contemporary news paper Certain it is that when the neck is restricted with tight collars the important thyroid glands on either side of the windpipe, the great stabilizers of the human body, cannot do their work properly, and the correlations between other glands in the head throat and chest are interrupted. It is these glands which store up the reserve strength and vitality so much needed In later life and which regulate the en- tire body and head. The thymus glands in the chest are particularly important to growing girls.
