Of the Christmas dinner table. and the
unique arrangement Of toys around the
lodges of the cake is sure to please
the youngstCr.
Tho cake can easily be decorated at

tions given below. Use any favorite
cake recipe. and bake the mixture in
three round pans. each one smaller than
the last. The largest pan should meas
ure about ten inches in diameter. When
the three cakes are baked arrange them
in the pyramid shape shown in the
illustration. Tho entire cake is now
frosted. either white or pink frosting

OF egg and powdered sugar will be
found the most satisfactory for fancy

to give smooth surface to the cake.
As the frosting begins to dry the dec

asked me II did not want the last
dance?
ward and I told her as she was with
me she should have spent the greater
part of the evening with me. and not
leave me by myself I did not Know
ANYBODY there but this girl. while she
had quite a few friends of both sexes. She
said as he gave me three dances during
the whole evening that was SUFFICIENT.
Now. cynthia, / love this girl. but she is
so stubborn and independent that ] find II
hard to get along with her. VIII you
please puDIlSu liI'o AZ 49,
i,nn and let me know who is at fault?
SOUTH PHILADELPHIAN.
While conceding that the girl should
have danced oftener with you since you
took her to the party, Cynthia does not
hIame her for not doing so. since you did
not seek her out before the last dance.
~ ia never a girls place to ask man
II he wants her to keep dances for him.
He should do the asking himself
Another thing, because man takes a
RirI 10 a dance. he has no right to claim
nost Of the dances from her. At the
Same time, If he does not know any
o. the other girls at the party and the
pirl he takes does, she should introduce
Sjrn 10 some of the other girls and men,
and should dance with him quite often
through the evening.
