BACK INTO FAVOR HAS COME SOFT GLOW OF CANDLE
 LIGHT TO CAST ITS CHARM OVER FEMININE BEAUTY
The Fashionable Dinner Hostess Now Burns Can dies Instead of Electric Lights

Would you make your dinner party a shining success, turn off the elec- tric lights and distribute among the silver and china slender oandlesticks. The soft glow of the candles cannot help but pervade a room with a spirit of festivity and enhance the charm of fair guests. Nothing is as becoming to feminine compleXions as candle light.
 Besides it's quite the thing now to use candlesticks everywhere. For dinners. good form calls for candle sticks of crystal or silver designed in slendor simple lines. Custom fa- vors white candles Of approximately the same length as the candlestick. However, many hostesses prefer to use candles matching the floral deco rations. Candleshades are quite passe.
 With the return of candles to favor, snuffers have made their re-appear- ance. Small discs of glass which fit around the candle just where it stands in the candlestick. can be purchased | to catch the drippings l Ask for Banquet Candles A wise hostess, however, will ask | for banquet candles, as these do not drip, and thus will save her a lot of ! annoyance.
 For decorative purposes there are candlesticks of brass, wrought iron, wood and those known as polychrome work.
 Wrought iron candlesticks have only lately come into wide use and are especially suitable for a room having Italian furniture. The tall candelabras look particularly well beside simple ! fireplace, whereas the regular sized candelabras are used to advantage as a balance on a heavy table, such as a refectory table.
 The beautifully colored ware, known as polychrome, is widely used for decorative purposes. Two short polychrome candlesticks can be used on the hall table before a small pic ture. The candles should be long. In fact. a sense of proportion should gov ern the choice of candles in all cases.
 Candelabras on Mantels
 On the mantel candIesticks help to effect beautiful groupings. In some cases, two slender candlesticks are used on each side. If there is no mirror or picture above the mantel, candelabras can be used. Silver or brass candlesticks are used for this purpose, and sometimes the old fashioned ones of crystal.
 Sconces, too, have come into popu- larity lately. Flanking mirror above a hall table, or in the dining room be- side the buffet they can be used ad- vantageously.

A small shallow tin can may be con verted into a pretty powder box.

 A Novel Gift
 For an inexpensive, small gift, use little baskets filled with candied orange peel. The baskets can be made from oranges by removing the pulp from the skins and cutting them in basket form, leaving strip for the handle. The baskets are filled with the candied orange peel and a large green bow is tied to the handle, with a Christmas card.

That is the summary of opinions
expressed by Ottawa officials as to
me situation regarding smuggling of
liquor from Canada 10 the United
States. Further, high officials of the
royal Canadian mounted police say
mat while they are doing all in their
power TO check infractions of the fed

tor the American authorities to see
that liquor does not reach the thirsty
souls beyond the imaginary line
1000 miles long.
The situation apparently is that
from three provinces in particular
there is a large trade in Bookkeeping

tario. Quebec and British Columbia.
At the same time a respectable guam

across from the maritime provinces
and from Manitoba.
Carry on Constant Campaign.
At Windsore and in the surround

carrying on constant campaign
against the Illegal liquor vendors.
and many have been hauled into
court and condemned to pay fines
from $500 up. One parched Detroit
man, however. is said TO haV$|parted

that some farmers in that vicinity
have found it more profitable to
shuggle liquor across the border than

run to weeds while they pursue the
elusive dollar via the Bookkeeping
route.
Quebec Mecca for Thirsty.
Quebec. it is stated, is the mecca
for thirsty thousands of Americans
every week end, and automobiles
passing back and forth carry their
loads of human and other freight,
bound for the Sahara across the Dor
der. Under these conditions Cana
dian police authorities admit that 1t
is practically impossible to enforce
the stringent liquor laws at present
in force
The chief reason for the difficulty
of enforcement, according to an of-
fetal of the royal Canadian mounted
police, who have under their juris-
diction the carrying out of all fed
eral laws, is the fact that many peo-
pie are not in sympathy with the
hQuor legislation. and the securing
Of contraband liquor is regarded in
many quarters as an achievement
rather than disgrace.

into the United States from Canada
is to be prevented, it is intimated
