HOW TO EAT

ORN-Pick up the ear of boiled
~ corn with one hand and eat 1t
from the ear. This is in perfectly
good form and is better than cutting
the kernels frcr the ear at table.
Cherries the cherry by the stem
to the mouth, and discard the pit into
the right hand. Then lay it on the plate.
Baked Potatoes-Cut them length
wise or crosswise on the dinner plate
if they have not already been opened
in the Kitchen Take the morsels of po-
tato from the open skin with the fork.
Do not expedite this by squeezing
the skin With the fingers. If you like
to eat the skin cut the potato with
the skin on with the knife and fork.
Never scrape the skin with the side
of the fork tt get the last morsel.
Berries should be eaten with
fork or spoon excepting Strawberries
which, if they are served with the
hulls on, are raised to the mouth by
means of the hull and bitten off.
Lobster in the Shell-It is necessary
and quite all right to pull such sea
food apart with the fingers and such
things as shrimps may even be sep
arated and peeled with the fingers.
However great daintiness should be eX-

I even so far forgot my high station
as to speak to you.
"a queen should speak only to her
equals, and 1 wish you would not ad-
dress me again, for 1 really cannot
notice one so far beneath me"
Pumpkin Vine said something about
kindness being the greatest virtue a
queen could have, but Miss COrnstalk
only shook her silken locks that they
might gIisten in the sunlight and held
her head higher than ever as her
green sas ffuttered in the breeze.
But one day when Pumpkin Vine
had forgotten all about the unkindness
of naughty Miss Cornstalk, down fell
something close beside her.
Pumpkin Vine now had a large yel-
low pumpkin of which any vine should
have been proud, but she did not brag
about its gold She knew that other
vines had golden pumpkins and that

the world.
But what was it that lay on the
ground beside her? Pumpkin Vine

proud and naughty no more, for her
silken tresses were gone and her
green sash and all that was left of
her former glory was long stalk
with husks withered and dry.

ture. And the dress worn under a
wrap of this sort sinks into obscurity
because of the beauty of the outer COW
ering. 1t can be either a plain black
dress or one of white that Is designed
quite without trimming, for the coat
supplies all of the dash of decoration
and color that could possibly be de-
sired.
Coats Match Dresses.
The costume suit, which was so
loudly heralded In the fall has carried
over into summer with all of its finest
points to the fore, and it bids fair to
be one of those things which, in the
fall, we will cling to as an inspiration
not to be foresworn.
One of the very latest ones is, the
long-w aisted, short--peplumed coat.
There is every attraction here of femi-
nine grace and charm, and at the same
time the suit, either with it's coat or
without it, has every attribute of dig
nifty to carry along with it. The dress
portion of this costume suit is made
from a combination of that soft,
cream colored French cotton crepe,
and the skirt is made from a lemon.
yellow ratine. Now those two ma
terials are, to be sure, only the foun-
dations. Upon them are superimposed
many bands and lines of embroidery
done in stitches of merceriZed cotton
in colors of black, brown, sparkling red
and white. On the blouse these hRnd-
worked bands contain all of the col.
ors, but when it comes to the skirt
only the black and the white threads
are used, and the same is true of the
belt made of shaped piece Of the
ratine. Then the coat Is made of the
same fabric that goes to make the
skirt of the frock worn underneath it.
And the little jacket is further embel-
lished by bands of a dyed kolinsky fur
carrying the softest of the darker
tones of brown. The coat is lined then
with soft, cream-colored silk having
a smooth surface which turns back on
the collar and cuffs and shows becom-
ingly against the neck and against the
puffed sleeves of the cotton crepe
which jut out underneath the wide
cuffed sleeves. One nice thing about
the skirt to this frock is the way it
pleats in ON the sides. This gives a
sufficient amount of room for walking,
and at the same time it keeps that trig.
straight look.
Golden Brown Creme
Another dress designed for street
wear and worn, indeed, by the very
smart woman in New York was made
of a golden brown crepe. The skirt
had straight panel at front and at
back, while at the sides were these
inserted sections of narrow side pleat-
ings At the base Of the skirt the little
pleats were tackled together so that
the skirt puffed out above that point in
sort of harem fashion. Worn with
this skirt there WAS cape jacket with
loose and flowing sleeves through
which other puffed sleeves of Rus
sian blouse bodice were seen to pro-
trude This little bodice of white
had lines of Russian embroidery in
tones of yellow and brown marching

MISS CORNsTALK grew very
Ava proud as the days went by and
her silky hair foated over her pale
green dress in the breeze.

will see that 1 am quite your equal,
though I do not think I was made to

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
BOARD"

THE resources of a language
L for the expression of thought
are frequently increased by at
tributing to the same word a
number of different meanings.
Thus we have "post''-from the
Latin rono, Il place"-showing
MP in such words as postage"
'post-haste," ''post-office" and
the like, while "head" and
court" are others of the same
type. But, of all these, the
most interesting is 'bOard." orig
inally connected with broad"
and applied to that form of
timber which is characterized by
it's breadth rather than its
thickness.
Several boards manifestly 60
to make up table but, in the
old days, a single plank. rather
flimsily supported, was sufficient
for this purpose. We, therefore,
have the use of the word in the
sense of the table itself-the
festive board'-and also the
meals, board and lodging" The
significance of the table is also
apparent in the use of the word
in such titles as Board of Trade,
Board of Commerce and the like
all of these bodies meeting
around or sitting beside a table.
Again, board" is specifically
used to denote the plank cover
ing of a vessel, and in this
sense, gives rise to new group
of phrases. of which aboard"
and "above-board" are typical.
The paper-maker, too, has his
technical uses for the term. To
him it signifies the stiffest and
thickest-the most bOard-like-
of his products. and card
board" is the result.

Bertrand Russell, writing il the Daily

white people in China. According to
Russell's view, the Chinese, gentle

liZatiOn as superior to that of the
west lin all that makes for human
happiness and states that all they
need is little time to "reviVify China
and produce something immeasurably
better than the Worn-out. grinding
mechanism we call civilization"
What China needs, in Russelfs
opinion. is a period of anarchy during
which she may find herself But he
doubts whether she will be allowed
such period.
