May day ought to be an inspiration

to look after.
Pack the food in paper boxes. and
use paper napkins. paper plates and

How TO Remember.

How do you remember?
Do you simply engrave the fact to b,
remembered upon your mind so that Their,
will be no forgetting. or do you US,
some of the various aids to memory tha
other folks resort to?
There are women VINO set an alarm
clock to remind them of the time fol
the baby's Next bottle; there are women
who write themselves postal cards &c
remind them of things that have to b.
done o. a certain day in the future;
there are women who have a code of sig
nails. things out of place, an overturned
vase a note in the oven door, or a pic
ture hung upside down-tO remind them
that something must be done. though the
reminder never tells just what is TO be
done. And, of course, there are the
strings around tire finger and hetters in
tobacco pouches that are gentle remind
ers TO the forgetful husband or the hus-
band whose mind already is weighed
down with its own cares and worries
1t may honestly be said that the more
complex our lives become and the higher

and the more we resort to aids TO men,
DRY, even if they are not like ten pic
ture hung upside down. Clocks and
calendars of which our primitive fore
hears had none, are nothing more nor
less than reminders; and how much We
depend upon these? The very busy wom-
an. the woman who is absorbed in the
work before her. may not be able TO tell
within two or three hours what time il
Is; and how many of us on a busy day
have 10 consult the calendar for the day
of the month?
The woman's whose life is comparative
ly simple needs no engagement pad She
needs no address book and no calling
list. These facts can be retained all
within her own mind. But when life
becomes more complex and the calls
upon her time become more numerous.
it is impossible to~trust these things to
her own mind. To attempt to do so
would he waste of energy and appl-
cation.
So why tax your minds with remember
ing these things that YOU can consign
TO paper? Why not reserve your pow
crs of remembering to things that are
worth whi!e-to remembering faces and

May 1-Janet Monach Patey.

One OF the greatest contralto sing
ers of all time. Janet Monach Patey.
was born April 81. 1912. In London
of Scotch parentage. Her first ap-
pearance as soloist was when she
was Is and after this occasion. in
spite Of the great applause that fol-
lowed her singing. she was under so
great nervous excitement that she lost
her voice completely, not to regain
Its use for six months. And this ten
dency to extreme nervousness fol-
lowed Janet Patey through life. Back
on the concert stage again she had
unusual opportunity to show her pow
ers on the occasion of the illness Of
Nine. Sainton Dolby. the greatest con-
tralto singer in England at the time
Janet was called upon to fill her place
at the last minute and showed such
brilliant powers that her future was
assured from that time. Not long
afterwards on the retirement of Nine.
Dolby Janet Patey became the ac-
knowlcdsed leading contralto of Eng
land. In the meantime she had mar
ried a concert singer named Patey.
who was her inspiration and COM
panion thereafter.
In 1871 Mrs. Patey came to this
country for her first American con-
cert tour and four years slater she
created small sensation In Paris.
Her rendering of the famous %. Rest
in the Lord" was the cause of a
veritable storm of applause and those
who heard her sing this never for
got the rare powers and charm Of her
voice.
Later in life Mrs. Patey was known
as the English Alboni. so highly was
her voice esteemed But toward the
end Of her life the old nervousness
returned and her death was caused by
stroke uf apoplexy brought on
through extreme excitement follow
ing an exceedingly successful concert.
Mrs. Patey's voice was described by
contemp oraries as being pure. rich
and sympathetic In ballad and ora
torio singing she has seldom had a
superior.

Shantung Silk Returns.

There can be no doubt that Sham

will once again hold its own this
season as a favorite fabric. not only
for useful blouses. but also for spring

children. To be worth buying, how

Ovcrfondness for Candy.

Mrs. o. r. writes: My 1S-year-old
girl is just crazy over candy. She
spends every cent she has given her on
it and she gets it charged to my grocers
bill, although | have forbidden it,
Find out what is Wrong in the child s
diet that makes her crave candy so. She
probably needs more sugar and you can
give this to her in a wholesome way. See
that she has light. sweet dessert every
day and follow that with a few pieces
OF pure, simple candy. The harm in
candy eating lies in eating 1t between
meals and being tempted by the variety
of flavor into eating too much of 1t. Most
certainly prevent her charging forbidden
sweets to your grocery account. Why not
give her stated allowance for spending
money and insist that she render ac-
count of itr Interest her in saving her
money for some particular purpose. Then
she will think twice before spending 1t.

Cosmetics Not Needed;
Peel the Skin Instead

One reason mercolized wax is so
strongly recommended is that it really
takes the place of several different cos
metics, saving time, patience and ex-
pense. 1t is better than any cleansing
cream, better than any massage cream,
and better than any rouge, for accom-
plishing the results for which such ar
ticles are used. AS the wax actually
absorbs an old. faded or discolored cuti-
Gle. a little each, day, the underlying
skin which gradually appears, is clearer,
softer, healthfer-hued and more youthful
than any cosmetic-made complexion.
Spreading on thin coat fthis wax at
night, washing 1t off mornings, in q
week or so produces a marvellous trans
formation. Just one ounce of mercolized
wax. obtainable at any drug store. will
do the work. There's nothing better
to remove freckles, moth patches, liver
spots, sallowness. blotches. pipmples or
blackheads.
For wrinkles and loose. saggy skim a
face bath, made by dissolving l OF pow
dered saxolite in 10 pit. witch hazel is
the best thing that can be recommended.
This has remarkable astringent and
tonic properties.-Ady.

THE OLD TOWN.

The city lights are gold and red and
strung in garlands overhead,
They whirl and dance and turn and
spread till nights like day,
Till all the wild that's part of you
comes leaping from the heart
Of you
And swings you all a-quiver down
the flashing way;
But oh, the little old lights, not gar
landed nor gold lights,
One by one they petaled out, the
pleasant lights you knew,
AS up and down the pavement's hem
the old man limped a-lighting
them,
The old lamps in the old town when
the sleepy day was through.
The city streets are straight and
wide, and hurrying on every
side
The people crowd and cross and ride
and elbow past,
Till down the pavement's noise and
beat your feet keep time to
swifter feet,
The pulses Of the city as it hastens
past;
But oh, the little town streets, the
rambling up and down streets,
All the twists and turns are just the
way they used to be:
You'd think the very dead you knew
might round lane and smile
at you
And nod careless welcome in the
old way cheerily.
The city's gay and wild and kind, and
full of joy for you to find,
And all its ways that cross and
wind are blithe each one,
It's like sweetheart reckoning; and
laughing at the reckoning,
You spring to follow after till your
youth times done:
But glad Of you and sad of you, the
little wistful lad Of you
Leaps up to greet the old place
when you're grown too old te
roam!
It's like your mother calling you
whatever is befalling you
The little old towns waiting til
you're ready to come home.
BY Margaret Widdemer.
