IRREGuLAR MEALS

Dear Corner Sisters: We are all aware lhat we must eat to live but how many if us except that We are required to do to ever give enough thought to regu- larity of meals. Sometimes it is hours hast the regular time, for one reason pr another,/ before we finally take time D eat.
 The woman alone at home is most ant 70 be neglectful in this respect It is natural to wish to finish certain task hefore stopping to eat Sometimes it is canning, sometimes it is gardening and sometimes sewing. 'I'll enjoy lunch all he more when have time to eat it eisurely.' argues the busy woman, and she goes right on at her work, little realizing that she is taxing her strength when she works long past her habitual eating times little realizing too, that the work she does when she is thus exhaust cd is sure to be less satisfactory than what she does when she has refreshed Nersclf with nourishing food
 No matter how busy you are always take certain time to sit down and eat Don't think that by taking a slice ot bread from the bread box and then get ting some butter and eating it as you gc from one task to another you have had luncheon. It may satisfy you for tho lime but the chances are that some time in the middle of the afternoon you vii rave for another snatch and it doesn' take much of such irregular eating tC upset digestion. And health is cer tainly worth keeping in that respect a. well as others

LIVING ON A SMALL FARM

Dear Cornerites: I am 32 years old and for half that number of years have been local correspondent and received the Daily Bulletin. Each year learn to appreciate more tho quality and spirit of the paper, department by department. I md so many home helps in the Social Corner page that recently when it was int!mated that more letters would be vel come l felt that it was time for me to do my share there.
 We live on small farm near small residential hill town. With the present trend in prices and wages we find it most profitable to raise only our own vegeta- bles, fruit, milk, pork and eggs. The egg profits are the best and easiest mar keted, so we try to raise and keep hens to pay some other running expenses. This allows my husband 10 wory1 a,mos, co,- stantly at trade near by. We have a husky little "yearlng" son and find the work that accompanies caring for such a ! little foor-mop, as he. is still creeping , made pleasant and easy by electrical ap- | pliances, lights, running water, etc. We : even found that we could catch flies on the ceiling with the vacuum cleaner when they got into the current they never came to life again as some that are 1 swatted seem to.
 k My husband carries his lunch and ind it satisfies him best and saves muct fancy cooking to send one dish of well mixed and seasoned meat and potato, fo instance creamed beef with potato O possibly a dish of baked beans and a rel | ish. This with sandwiches and a piec 1 of pie and cheese does not require mucI cake or cookies and then at night wt can have our simple hot supper with cak and sauce or pudding.
 The baby has had good sized pen ol the veranda where he could be saf playing all summer, but is delighted t have to be in the house now and exer l cises \much more in his tours of investi gation. He went with us to town meet | ing when we both voted and was tn, youngest citizen present. He also zoe to church and is gradually learning re straint. Sometimes he says Amen" t the preaching in his own language bu seldom disagrees with the service
 This must be long enough for frs letter.

ANnrHrR EpG1NG pArrEKN.

Social Corner Members: Several of the members written that they were inter ested in crocheting. I wish they would occasionally let me know what they are doing in the way of new work.
 In my last letter. I think it was, l gave the directions for a narrow edg- ing. Since then I have found wide edging which some of the members may like.
 Here it is:
 Oh. 27 stitches, 1 s. CT. in 10th stitch. Oh. 5. skip 4, 8. CT. into next stitch. Continue until there are 5 such spaces.
 Second row-Ch. 6, s. CT, into 1st space, oh. 5, s. into each space to end. Turn.
 Third row-Ch. 6, 1 s. CT. into 1st space, ch 1 s. into next 3 spaces, ch. and d. CT times with chain stitch between each d. CT Turn.
 Fourth row-Ch. 5. and catch between each d. CT stitches. making 6 loops. Fifth row-Ch and q. CT. twice. On twice and d. CT. twice ifl each space, al lowing no chain stitch between each space Turn and ch. G. s. CT. into the space made by the chain stitches and continue until lace is the required length.
 I enjoy the old writers quite as mucf as those who really know them but hope that the new ones will not forge to write also.

Never thinking when she handed it to- me but what it was some of the Social club day dinner and upon opening it to find the lovely basket of fruit. It was indeed big surprise to us both. I can not express how deeply I appreciate your very kind and dear thoughts of me in the four weeks I have been so closely confined to the sick patient and those also who have sent cheery cards to me. I. trust I shall be able to always live up to your loving and kindly feelings and thoughts of me. also thank the Sisters of the Corner who have called It has passed away number of anxious mo- ments with different thoughts and to ev- cry one I again say we thank you
 Aunt Mary: think your idea of hav- ing sisters in the form of officers whose duty it is to see that proper food for cur dinners is promised by soliciting at each meeting is good one. l trust I shall be able to be present at the next and take hand inthe work. As usual, as in the past two days the sick one has gained fine.

THE WINTER BEDROOM.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: We may not want to but it is time neverthe- less to get ready for the cold months. As you have probably had at least one experience of that kind you must know that there is no comfort to be obtained in a bed provided with insufficient bed clothing. Besides the sheets used on the summer time bed, each bed requires a pair of blankets, preferably of all wool These are light in weight, but very warm. They are more expensive than the blankets having part cotton, but are more economical
 The inexperienced will in all cases do well to patronize the reputable shops when shopping for blankets The day when the housewife made comfortabIes is gone. The highest-priced ones are stuffed with down or lambs wool. If these are used on children's beds the thrifty housewife often devises a wash able cover of cheesecloth or any light weight material to be slipped over the comsortable and held in place with tapes or buttons.
 Then there are other things that go toward making the winter bedroom more attractive. A fresh coat of paint or var nish on walls or trim or dainty new curtains all help.
 
 the home, there should be candle and candlestick as well as matches in ever, bedroom. The best of lighting systemt become deranged and this always at z most inconvenient or inopportune time l There are sets being shown which in. clude tray, water pitcher and mug a; well as candlestick and match holder 1 In the case of the bedroom, as in many other eases, attention to small detail i of much import. I have heard travelin, folks recommend one hotel rather thai another simply because "it has the mos comfortable rocking chairs and well placed lights"
 1 Some housewives have habit of rele | gating the most uncomfortable chairs t the bedroom and continuing to have tn solitary lighting fixture in the middle 0 the room. But in your endeavor to mak winters bedroom more comfortable loo] up comfy rocker and manipulate you light with cord or tubing until it reall, gives service near the mirror or nea the bed or chair, where one may read.
 Best regards to the Corner.

AT THE SHORE AND CHILLING.

Dear Cornerites: Remember, the 10th of November, in Franklin hall Williman- tic, Club No. l holds it's meeting. As my last letter seemed lengthy enough, omit ted some which will now add,
 It might interest some of you to know that the authoress of Uncle Toms Cabin and other books-Harriet Beecher Stowe was a great-aunt of the writer and speaker to which alluded in my last let ter
 Perhaps some of you think had more than my share of vacation days, as spent delightful time at my favorite re- sort, where I could enjoy the salt sea breezes, bathing and fishing and resting to my hearts content. It seemed as II some days were not long enough to pack so much enjoyment in. At times there was just the wonderful mystery of the quiet calm of that vast expanse of water and at other times the raging fury of the waves as they dashed and beat against the unrelentless rocks, ever reminding us that 'the hand that made it is Divine" Then one day great pleasure of an- other pleasure came to me. l was in- vited to spend the day with Lucy Acorn. Now you who know her know that was treat. In spite of the efforts of the trolleymen to frustrate my plans by talk l ing me past her station, my feet came to l the rescue and in due time q guess it was past due time. for our timepieces did l not agree) I came to her Social Corner colored house and was made welcome by her cordial greeting. That Social Corner color was the outward emblem of what was insi warmth of hospitality in a bright anu cosy home where Lucy reigns supreme in MT. Acorn's heart and home. 1 We all agree with her that MT. Acorn is all right. The time passed quickly, as all Social Corner hours do, and before I left I visited their extensive poultry plant, where there were hundreds of red-headed beauties that will keep Lucy pussy gather l ingg GEES soon. A visit to the garden proved they had an abundance of every thing to satisfy the appetite and speci- mems from the flower bed provided me with beautiful bouquet of every color, | yellow being prominent. There was one i flower of rare beauty, so frail and deli catily crinklcd, of sweet perfume, gener- ous size. pleasing shape, and delicate shade of yellow, that was an attractive addition to my bouquet; yet it blossoms yearly in many gardens and We never | stop to admire or think of picking it. Now { what was it?
 Another day I ventured out to call on M. and H. and was much disappointed to ! find her away, and having plenty of tin e at my disposal I turned to cali on Dom Pedro, and with the same results, as she, too, was out of town.
 I was sorry not to attend our first club meeting, but found the sisters intended I 1 should be at the next one and go to work. That is what I always get into when I get back

cARINa FOR CLoTHEs.


 Dear Cornerites More than casual thought has to be given to garments these days
 < A good deal depends on how you keep your clothes cs to whether their life is long or short Everybody who has ob- served the life of two different frocks, one of which was carefully used and the other of which was carelessly used. knows this.
 It doesn't follow that you must not wear your clothes, or that you must wear them carefully. When one sees wo- man too careful of the clothes she has on, one is reminded of the little girl all of us knew who was eternally founclng her sash out of harms way when she sat down, and vigilantiy, If surreptitious- ly, rubbing her shoes on her stockings to remove the dust. Too great care in the wearing of clothes Is an unattractive habit. Far better to wear cotton frock and wear it easily than to wear one of satin with too great care. 1 As for the care you take of the clothes once they are off your back-that Is an- other thing.
 | For one thing, air everything that does not go to the tub. Place blouses and frocks coats and skirts on suitable hang CTS, and air them at least once a week, 1 if possible out of doors, on a porch, or else in an open window. Have plenty of hangers. Never hanl anything up carelessly. You can say, tailors bills by observing this hint. Have your clothes cleaned when the, need it, either by yourself, by a tailor, or by a dry cleaner.
 Brush or shake out everything wheI lyou take 1t of. This removes much sur face dust that would otherwise becom, firmly lodged.
 Keep velvet clothes in bags. to pre- 1 vent their rubbing against other cloth and ruining their own soft nap.
 I am glad to see so many letters ir the Corner. Keep them coming. Tn, more the rnerrier With best wishes MARTHA

MAKING USE OF APPLES.

Dear Corner Sisters: This is the sea son of the year when apples are plenti- ful. They can be used in a great many ways and should not be allowed to go to waste.
 I am sending a couple of recipes con tainihg them which you will like.
 scalIopcd Sweet Potatoes and Apples Cut cold boiled or baked sweet pota- toes. in one-fourth inch slices; there should be two and one-hah cups. Put half of the prepared potatoes into a we'll buttered baking dish and cover with one cup of thinly sliced sour apples sprin- kle with one-fourth cup of brown sugar, dot over with two tablespoons of butter and sprinkle with one-hah teaspoon of salt. Repeat, using the same quantity of ingredients for the top layer. Bake one hour in slow oven. Serve in bak- ing dish. This scalloped combination Is particularly good with roast pork, goose

Let Us Smile.

Let Us Smile. The thing that goes the furthest towards making life worth while. That costs the least and does the most, Is just a pleasant smile.

It's full of worth and goodness. too, with manly interest blent; It's worth a million dollars and doesn't cost a gent There is no room for sadness when you see a cheery smile, it always has the same good look, it's never out of style It nerves us on to try again, when fail- ure makes us blue, The dimpIes of encouragement are good for me and you. IL pays a higher interest for it's merely lent It's worth a million dollars and doesn't cost a cent. A smile comes very easy. you can wrin- kle up with cheer A hundred times before you ! squeeze out a soggy tear.

each succeeding rinse. The whole point is. to rinse in a soapy water and not clear one.
 Bluing is both unnecessary and unde- sirable for blankets. They naturally have creamy tint which looks far bet ter undisguised.
 Select clear, breezy day for the process, so that the drying will be rapid. Quick drying is one of the secrets of restoring the fluffy ightness to the blankets The ideal way to dry blankets is to spread them on the lawn,s thus elirn- mating any possibility of stretching. A sheet underheath will prevent its becofn- ing soiled from grass or insects, If the space is limited, spread the blankets ever a line, taking pains to have an equal weight on either side of the line and to have the edges and corners meet.

TIE woRNorr SHIFT.

Dear Corner Friends When mems shirts become too badly worn to mend around the neck, good way to fix-them SO that they can still be worn for a little while longer is to rip off the neckband. Then cut away neatly and evenly all of tae worn part This of course makes the ncc. larger than the neckband. so open the stitching on each Of the front of the toAe and push about one inch of the neck into the shc-,lder
 Stitch it - and then put on the neck band. pushing the rest of the fullness, if there is any, toward the center of the back. where it does not show and is real iy needed. If the shirt is fixed in this way. it will look almost like new and can be worn for 9 long time
 Cuifs wear out at tie fold almost all ways before the rest of the shirt. If the cuils arc the soft kind, they can be turned and folded on the other side. If they are the stin kind, it is little more work to hx them They should be soaked in hot water to take iut the starch Rip the stitching and cut down to the worn part and then stitch as before. The cuff will b. Q little narrower. but it will be as good rs new.
 Kind regards to all

THE srRAM RInE.

Social Corner Sisters: Country peo- pie, occasionally, find it hard to know just how to entertain their city friends One instance is as follows:
 A young girl, who lived on farm, 1 went into town to high school every morning on the tSain. She was very i popular girl ,and naturally was invited to all the parties given by her school l mates. As the term was nearing the end she felt that sine ought to have some sort of an affair to pay them back for all they had done for her. But after long talk with her mother who was a very sensible woman, as you will see, she realized that it would be utterly foolish for her to try to give the same sort of an affair as her city friends had gieVn. They finally decided on an old fashioned straw ride, as near like the i ones her father and mother had gone on when they were young as possible. The invitations were very cute. They were written on small white cards with ] envelopes to match, but in one corner were tiny little straw stacks made of the l sienderest little straws that could be l collected, fastened or with rnucilage. 1 The guests were met at the station by l two huge hay riclls partly filled with ! straw, driven by the hostess father and her older brother. It was about O. clock then. They were taken on a long
 moonlight ride before going to the house. l This was a wonderful treat to the boys
 and girls, who were accustomed to being
 whiZzed about in motor cars, but most of l whom had never ridden in hay rack, i at least not since they were children. i When they got back to the house, about g o'clock they were all ready for
 the regular old-fashioned supper that the hostess mother had waiting for them It l was served buffet style, the girls sitting about on the steps and the lawn on rugs and cushions, and the boys serving them There were chicken salad sandwiches little cucumber pickles, hot chocolate, big bowls of homegrown strawberries and
 cream, and sugar cookies sprinkled with
 sugar.
 After they had eaten their fill they
 were given little booklets made of a
 piece of straw2colored paper folded once
 with the cover decorated with pictures of
 old time carriages in silhouette. If the
 hostess or one of her friends cannot , draw, these can be cut out of maga-
 zines.
 On the cover was printed an old time
 romance.
 The contest consisted of filling in tho
 blanks with the names of the old time conveyaqces that were used before th< , day ef automobiles.
