WHAT'S WHAT
by HELEN DFCIE

At its best, tabe-talk is one Of the
most stimulating OF social enjoyments
That Ia why even more care should be
taken In selecting the dinner-guests than
IN composing the dinner menu. People
accept invitations chiefly for the sake Of
harmonious social intercourse IL It were
solely a question of food they could
dine more conveniently at home And
they should not come unless they are
prepared to contribute their share to
the entertainment II Is not sufficient TO
be well-dressed for the occasion their
conversation should be finer than the
fashion of their garments
Experienced hostesses and diners-out
keep the Chat-ball rolling lightly along
until the Ione-timc) wine e-and-walnuts
stage which marks the climax. the
brilliant conclusion OF the feast OF
reason and the flow of soul" People
who are not naturally witty sometimes
brighten themselves up with good effect
by reading a witty new book tor n
world forgotten old one) before dining
out, for an apt and fresh quotation Is
the next best thing to an original bon
mot. Also. 1t serves to toss the ball
among the wits present, of whom, we
may thank our stars, there are usually
enough to make life worth living and
dinner worth discussing.

In him 7 see the sons OF Martha and
the sons of Mary working side by side

Summing up the modern man, in him
I see a type which compares favorably

probably cleaner, at least he faces fife

enemies he gives only as hearty a dis.

not come out OF his shell as often as he
would like, for his first instinct Is al

sire to give a square deal to his ac-
quaintance until proved. Those Of his

society of their own, who attempt in
puny ways TO battle for themselves

Adventures With a Purse

Nd now comes the time of the year
~ when some unfortunatcs suffer with
burning. aching feet. There is nothing
that can so take the JOY out Of a warm
languorous spring day as poor. tired
fcqt that one drags YEARLY along with
every step an effort. There are various
things one can buy to help this condi-
ton, but the one that recommends itself
TO me is n cooling salve. One rubs il on
the feet. and it is as cooling and sooth-
ing as ice cooled cloths. a jar of it
costs seventy five cents, and il is worth
many times the price,
For a small affair | know Of few
things that can be more useful than the
glass holder and cover. II consists of
a-well. saucer in which the glass sets
and Il top that matches, to cover the
glass and keep out dust and germs.
This is so convenient for the woman
who keeps a glass of water by her bed
at night or for the sick patient whose
medicine is kept in IA glass of water.
You can get these sets in old rose or
yellow, similar TO the tea cups and Sau
GERS that are so attractive. The price
iS fifty cents.
One shop has cutiCle ointment that
ought to interest you. II is salvq
that softcns the cuticlc and makes il
possible for you to keep it back SO that
the half moons show. But it has also
an extra use and one that should be of
great value to the woman who washes
dishes and has her hands in water fire.
Qucntly 1t sOftcnS the nails and kecps
them from being so brittle and easily
broken. Its price is thirty five cents a
jar.
