THE HIGH COST OF SHOPPING

some Of this flour. S1.15 a bag? Well,
 that Is cheaper than what pay. Oh,
 it's on sale. l might have known;
 flour is so high now. Well, please send
 me up bag, and charge it. Oh, have to pay you? All right!
 Well, l guess we had better be go- ing. We have spent so much time now.
 Let's stop at the art department, as it
 is on this floor, and look for the cen
 terpiece.
 Aren't those the lovellest boudoir caps? I'd like to get one for Ernest's mother That dainty pink one would
 go beautifully with her gray hair, and I'd have to get one for his sister, too. She likes yellow. Wouldn't it be a sur
 prise for them? Yes, I'll take those afford to spend that on his people, and he will be pleased that I thought of
 them.
 Now, there is something that he has been wanting to get for a long time. A pair of leather sofa pillow covers.
 Aren't they beauties? Wouldn't they just match his\ den? Brown leather and such lovely designs I'm afraid | they may be sold if I wait till later, so I guess I better get them now. Please send them up to this address. | How much? Yes, l have just the l right amount-S10
 Now for the dolly. Haven't you
 anything any larger that are em- | broidered? Only that one for $25? l haven't any idea of paying so much i for one. I'll look somewhere else l Let's walk up instead of taking the | elevator; then we can see more. Look at those hats! Aren't they handsome: :: l That one with the silver lace is ex- | quisite. How much? Only S1S.50! | How I'd like that hat! I need. one, too. Do you think it looks well on
 me? It's a little too much to pay, 1 don't you think? Oh, it's marked down from SEQ? It certainly is a bar i gain, and as I said I do need one. 1 Ernest wants me to look nice, and es- ! pecially before his people. I'll take it | before I think too much about tho | price. Yes, please send it.
 Lets go over to those tables and l get some cream. Pm tired out, aren't l you? I want to rest a minute and | then we'll go direct to the rug depart
 ment. Yes, Til have strawberry ice i and you pineapple? It's, my treat. i Have you a pencil in your bag? | spent.
 ''Why! My goodness: I-I-oh. 1 have you any idea how much I've
 spent? Why, what have I bought Only that hat, and, goodness me! I've
 spent $40.11. I guess you'll have to ! pay for his cream, for I've only got seven cents left, ands I'll have to go | without my rug and the fern and the l centerpiece and the curtains. Good i nessi everything costs 50 much. We've ! only been down street an hour, too. l Well anyway, we have to eat, and 1 we have to have clothes, but I'm afraid l Ernest will he rather provoked when I 1 go home with only seven cents. I guess i we had hetter walk, too, don't your" i I'll pay your fare" said the rather

GREETINGS FROM READY.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: What a long time of silence for one shat had so much to say at one time. Although silent have lost no interest and have kept track of all Social Corner dO- ings. I have been glad for those who could enjoy what I had to miss.

SOCIAL CORNER POEM
Little Words

By Sylvia Silverthorne. One little word, I would l might recall Only a little word, in haste all heed
 less spoken, Only a little word, but by it hearts
 were broken; That little word, I would I might re-
 call. One little word, I would I might un- say, For, ere I pondered. quick my lips it left, And of a friends sweet trust I found one all bereft; That little word, I would 1 might un-
 say. One little word. would I might for get, For bitterly it rings adown the years, So painful echoes, in unwilling ears, That little word. I would 1 might for get. An! How a little word may fill a life with sorrow, Alas! The arrow sped we may not
 e'er recall. In vain then, deep regrets, tears, an- guish-al, Cue hasty word may fill a life with sorrow. "'

COURTEOUS CONDUCT

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: Not long ago one of the Sisters had an interesting letter concerning good mannerS of children, and I thought there were many good points, for older ones to take note of. We all admire a polite, we'll hammered boy or girl, as according to the old saying hand some is, that handsome does,'' beauty is only skin deep" If it is essential that children should be taugh- to he polite and courteous and if they fail, or neglect to carry instructions out, they are often spurned or criticised by their elders, it would seem that ''grown-1Ips'' should not need be re- may come in contact with in a public way. But we observe this fact that in all local railroad stations there are posters kindly asking people to take time to be courteous to railroad em- ployes Many there are who regard those whose services are for the pub lie, as mere servants, only to be hast fly spoken to, many times with con tempt but on the other hand, those people are human, and often their ia VOrs and helps are not met with a spirit of appreciation. This also ap- plies to the groceryman, milkman and not infrequent to the clerks be- hind the counters in the department stores.
 It is a poor rule that don't work both ways. If we expect those serv- ing us from a public standpoint, to be for them to expect courtesy from us A good motto to follow: Live and lei live"

TAKE LITTLE JOURNEYS.

Dear Social Corner Members: Too many think of travel as something in which, only a favored few can in- dulge themselves. Most persons as- sunle that it means spending a great deal of time and money. But travel that crosses oceans and covers con tinents is not the only kind; nor does the value Of a journey depend on the number of miles that are traversed. The trip that is most worth while is not necessarily the longesl. The spir- it of the traveller is what really counts. All that is needed is to pass from your regular weelI-in-and- -week-Out surroundings to surroundings that are fresh-if only for a day or two To do so at leace once in every year, should be the aim of every man and woman who is truly alive.
 We read occasionally of some man or woman who has lived witlNn a score of miles of the railway without ever having seen a locomotive or a train of cars. Such a life, If the person is in good heaIth," is a cause for regret rather than for boasting.
 The farmer needs to break away from his routine at least once every year: if only for a day or two He need not journey several hundred miles to some city, at considerable ex- pense. In the very next county, al- though he will see no people wear ing nose rings, or eating with chop sticks, or living forty odd stories above the ground, he may see a new cattle-stanchion, or a novel method of road building, and he is certain to broaden his knowledge of the world.
 In the same way if the city man never leaves pavements and sky scrappers," he is wilfully starving himself elf--depriving himself of what is best in life.
 The true spirit of travel is to be eager to see another-any other place that the spot in which you live; to look. not with envy, but with inter est, upon the lives of strangers; to broaden yourself by learning new ways; adopt any new methods of life that may be truly beneficial to you; and finally, to return refreshed and full of contentment to the blessings that are yours at home.

The rather stout woman responded to the doorbell and admitted the rather thin woman, who came in like a gust of wind, all ready for action.
 ''Oh. my!" she exclaimed. You've got your work all done, and sewing, as live! We'll, put it away and come with me shopping. I hate to go alone and want your opinion on rug that I want to get for my living room. Ernest gave me $40 to bay one with, and must have it down this week, as I expect some of his folks for over Sunday; and, o6 course, I want every thing as nice as possible. I want a fern for the table and a new center piece. always keep the cloth on, but as long as they are here I'd like to tute a dolly. I shall have to get one all embroidered, as I haven't time to do 1t. need new curtains too, so I shall have to skimp on the rug and make the amount do for the three ex- tras I've made up my mind to get. You have such good taste that I want you to come, too; so come on. We'll have a whole afternoon for 1t. think l hear the car. so I'll run out and stop 1t while you lock up.
 ''Yes,' added the rather thin woman as they entered the store, T do like that suit I need one, too. I hate to look shabby. but, of course, I can't get 1t today. We'll go direct to the rug department. Oh, look! They're having sale on coffee percolators. I need one. I've always used a coffee pot but with his people coming I ought to get percolator. How much? $2.19? Well, I'll take one 1 can save on the rug, perhaps, for that much. Well, it's one needed thing, anyway.
 "Oh, did you know that there was a sale of gloves today" Why, isn't that a bargain? Regular s2 gloves for $1.79. I'll need some new ones when they come, so I guess I'll take two paits. certainly need those before houseN old things, and perhaps I can save on She centerpiece.
 Lets go upstairs now for that rug. Here's the elevator. Fourth floor, please. Why. everybody is getting out on the second floor. Such crowd. Let's see what is going on. Oh, a food sale! And just look at the lovely booths all trimmed up. Aren't they pretty? They're demonstra ting. Let's go and sample them; it doesn't cost anything.
 Such delicious cocoa! Ernest s any on hanG, so I ought to get some. I'll take two boxes. Oh, it's on sale only this week for B cents? Well, guess I'll take three boxes. then. I like to save where I can, and, besides, she drinks so much.
 Well, here are some biscuits. and honey, tool Did you ever? Don't they look perfect? My dear, did you ever taste such beautiful biscuits? Ernest just dotes on them. Oh you're adver- Using the flour" No, I never have used that kind; maybe that's why mine aren't as light and f1aky IS these. How pleased he would be if I passed out some biscuits like these to his people. He would be proud of my accomplish ments as a cook. I do believe I'll try
