Dear Folks:
I wouldn't take a great deal for my
trip to New Orleans. Of course we
all know that it is noted for the
quaintness of it's French quarter.
Nearly every house, by the way, the
houses are all flush on the street
with adorable ''patios to side or
rear, have grill work of the most in
teresting and beautiful character
around the small balconies that over
hang the sidewalks.
Dearest to a housekeeper's heart,
though, were the antique shops;
wish you could see the beautiful
old pieces of furniture for sale, how
/ longed to load a train and start
home with it. Wonderful pieces of
carving, beautiful mirrors, fascinat-
ing pieces of old and rare china.
Really, cannot begin to tell you
about the things that greet your
eyes, they beSgar description.
Thank you so much for the nice
lot of letters that greeted me on my
return. I am getting so many let
ters asking me to do shopping for
some Journal friend, and 1 attend
ing to these just as promptly as
can. Please remember that / make
no charge for this service, I do it
because it somehow seems to bring
me closer to you all. I know how
hard it is to always get your needs
filled in small communities, the mer-
chants do not have the demand for
a great many things and Of course
it would be impossible. Please re-
member when you send me money to
use for your purchases, send it either
in post office money irder, or GER
titled check, include postage, and if
it comes under the amount you send
l will return it to you.
Cordially,
Aunt Julia.
Mary D:
Indeed I am sorry that you can
not go to school this year, but you
certainly do not have to lose Que"
by staying at home. Do this: write
to Miss Charlotte Templeton, libra.
ry commission, state capitol, Allan
ia, Ga. Explain to her that you
have to be a stay-at-home, tell her
how far you have gone in school,
ask her to suggest a helpful course
Of reading for you to take up this
winter. All you will have to pay
for the books she will send you is
the postage both ways, and my, how
rich you will feel when winter is
over. Write me agin after you start
this system Of study.
Mrs. w. A, M:
Your interesting letter has been
unanswered because 1 am not at all
satisfied with the recipe 1 have for
jellied consomme, will send it to you
within the week, also recipe for
a famous dessert.
Mother:
From what you write me Of your
baby's continued crying I believe
the little fellow is hungry, your milk
may not contain the right proper
ties for him. l cannot give special
lists names, through this column.
You live near enough to Atlanta to
bring your baby up for examination.
1 gather from your letter that there
is no baby specialist in your town.
There are a number Of excellent
ones in Atlanta.
Beth:
1 think you are speaking Of what
is advertised as Fairy Fuel. This
gives the beautiful colors, when
sprinkled on your wood or log fires,
that is given by burning drift wood.
A firm called Pohlson Gift Shops,
Pawtucket, r. l., advertises this in
packages for $1.00.
Flapper:
My dear / think 1 have a heart,
and 1 truly believe the flapper Of to-
day, the times considered, is just
about what the flappers Of all other
days have been. Most fuss and
feathers, and not SO bad as she
paints or is painted. The real flap
per is just young and foolish, and the
worst part of it is how silly she will
feel in after years, when the thought
Of her flapperisms come back to her.
This will be particularly the case if
she has had some kodak pictures
taken in the extreme Of the styles.
Just avoid reckless, thoughtless be-
havior, conduct yourself like a lady,
and even if you do puff your hair
and knee length your dresses ana
lash treat" your eyes you won't
have any heartache when you think
11r
ness, though, if you keep that up
you will certainly have eye ache.
