True. she wta ha +1as just as quick as 4-e hr- ba.n uu. kind, but people dc ao, taaa this kind of girl into deep friendship They prefer the more dan.aa.oL. kind.
 The way to have friends js to 5a a friend, and a real friend mat D.. the same yesterday, today and ca morrow.
 But. of course. the quiet gi@ wants to join in the frzJtedas au5 sports of her acQuaintances as well as ta thctr Dmar.t j. .r. rl ous affairs. Lots of quiet ztr's feel this way They want 10 eS. press their pleasure hut do alt seem to he ghle 10 find an oudet For the quiet girl to eusN and oa- thuse about everything as semg girls-to whom it is quite ralura, do, would only bring her into ridicule yet she is quite as appre- ciatiye a. they asa end en.. wishes it were natural to hgr. too to ga.a. But it isn't, and so the quiet ai3 draws back into her shell and goes to the other extreme and shows her lack of interest.
 Now the popular girl is the ora who is willing to amuse and to b. amused It often happens that tn quiet girl is shy, and so poop'r hesitate to ask her to contribusr to the pleasure of others. PerAap she can sing or play or is good al. organizing games, but shyness pre- vents her from showing it. This is quite as much a fault as bain- too forward, though not such an ob- n0Xious one.
 We all know the type of girl who when asked to play monopoli1as the piano for the rest of the even ing, also the kind w'o make them selves a nuisance by their import ance and kEow-it-all-ness These types are offensive, of course. StH the quiet girl is also much to blame She does not give her friends half a chance to know what is in her and then is inclined to feel hurt because they have not discovered it..
 Again, perhaps. she does not talk over social affairs with the boys and girls after they are over. She should do this working a little en- thusiasm into the conversation.
 Quiet persons often see more than the liyelier kind

 When next making rice pudding flavor with lemon and cinnamon. t will be found exceedingly tasty.
 When making layer cakes spread the batter around the pans with a spoon, making it thicker around the edges than in the middle.
 When anything is accidentally made too salty, it can be counter acted by adding teaspoonful O. vinegar and tablespoonful of su- gar.
 When boiling potatoes put tea spoonful of sugar as we'll as salt in the water, This does not give a sweet flavor, but makes them dry and floury.
 Mousse and similar desserts are quickly and satisfactorily frozen il @ baking powder can be used for mould, and this packed in a pal, T Kettle of salt and ice or salt and snow and set out in the snow
 To singe a chicken hold 1t over a saucer of burning alcohol. This method does not leave soot on the flesh and is much safer than trying , singe with burning paper.
 If one would have soup, vegeta. bles or meat remain sweet, do moi cover them when setting them away, until thoroughly cool. Otherwis" they will sour or have a disagree able odor when warmed over
 Instead of steaming brown bread on the stove, put the bread in a pail, place that in a large pail half full of water, cover tightly and steam in the oven four of five hours Have moderate fire. This saves steam from going all over the house, also from filling up the kettle every few minutes.
 A rather hot fire is required for baking cookies or drop cakes and many times they burn on the bot tom of the baking pan. Just invert the pan, bottom side up and place the cookies and cakes on it to lake. You will find that they will not burn as easily and it is very handy to remove them when done.

 The frequent use of an eye cup tiled with tepid water and made about the sallness of tear, CT solution of boracic acid, will rest and strengthen tired eyes and quickly arrest any inflammatiC-l.
 It has been said that women might add ten years to their lives if they would practice the habit of going to a quiet room and lying down in a perfectly relaxed condt- ticn for q half hour CT even twen- ty minutes every day.
 In caring for the complexion 1t is well to remember the necessity fresh air and sunshine every day to destroy any possible germs and give it a freshness and sweetness which only the sun and air can give.
 Lemon juice with gylcerin is an excellent cure for freckles, and should be applied nightly Another fife tive cure is to rub fresh slice of lemon over the face. r your face is too oily wipe 1t off once day with diluted alcohol Put a pinch of borax in the water now and then when you wash your face and use a rice powder that is an absorbent.
 The remedy for the blues" lies within ourselves. On your dark days put on your brightest and prettiest gown and see how it raises your spirits It Is difficult for cheerful ness to express itself in sombel surroundings. If one does not feel like laughing, lift the corners of the mouth and one laughs perforce.

THE TROUBLESOME COLD SORE.

THE TROUBLESOME COLD SORE
 When a cold sore first makes it's appearance take a small piece of common alum and wet it thor oughly Moisten the sore and then rub plenty of alum on 1t. If no alum is handy peroxide of hydrogen, or better still, camphor, will do a great deal. The advantage of the alum is that it can be carried around with you.
 Never handle or squeeze or pull at a cold sore. If you are in no special hurry to remove it, let 1t reach the blister stage before treat. ing 1t at all. If you do not care who sees you with cold sore. do not remove it at all. It is really better to let it go away naturally.
