tesy, then, in taking your breakfast
when you find it most convenient,
without waiting for others in your
family, though of course one should
try to make the luncheon hour or din
ner hour one that will make it possible
for the entire family to sit down at
once.
Now, here is another question:
'What is considered the fashionable
time to have breakfast"
Well, whether it is fashionable or
not to get to ones work on time in the
morning. it certainly is something that
every one strives to do. If there are
children in your family who go to
school and those children have break
fast with you, then it is hard to ar
range breakfast later than half-pasr
seven or eight The man or woman
who is given to late hours, either In
the pursuit of pleasure or because his
business begins and ends late in the
day, obviously has later breakfast.
Really, there is no fashionable time
for this first meal of the day. The
only thing that can be said is that
farmers and farmers families always
have to rise earlier than most city folk,
and the latter are regarded as being

SARAH

Q ARAH-lately by fashionable con-
~ sent spelled Sara-is derived from
a good old Biblical name and re-
ceived it's right to sturdy religious sig
nificance since it first attached to the
wife Of the patriarch Abraham.
1t is derived originally from verb
meaning to fight or to rule and
the name of Abraham's spouse
Sarai (quarrelsome) was thus con-
verified into Sarah 1.-THE princess). If
we may judge from the example Of the
bride of Tobias, the daughters Of
Sarah were occasionally called by her
name and Zare is used as an eastern
name. Similarity of sound has led
etymologists to derive the term Sara
cen from the assumption that this race
was descended from Sarah, but their
belief is not substantiated
Sara Beauchamp was one of the
first famous women to bear the name.
Sarrota de Mutton, who lived much
earlier. was really Sarah, given an
Italian translation. Sarah was not
popular in England until after the
Reformation, when the contraction

close. I am sure I shall live longer
there, even if 1 am not as beautiful
as the rays of the sun would make
me-"
"Oh, fie, sister, why are you so
silly?" said the other dewdrop. I'D
rather be beautiful for a little while
than let the rose hold me close to her
heart. She will get all the credit for
beauty and no one will ever know
about you.
mo, shall creep down the stem of
this rose and catch the rays of the sun
and all who see me will say, How
beautiful Z when they behold me-"
Down the stem rolled the vain little
dewdrop and soon it was away from
the protecting leaf where It's sister was
trembling.
Soon the warm sun found it and its
wish was granted-all the beautiful
colOrs of the rainbow now belonged to
the little dewdrop and it was happy.
The other little drop nestled close to
the rose leaf and soon it dropped down
deep into the very heart of the open
ing flower and was out Of sight, but it
sank SO deep that the rose grew sweet
and a passing bee stopped to tell the
rose it was the prettiest and sweetest
flower in the garden.
"That is because "a little dewdrop
nestles in my heart, making me hap
py," said the rose. "This morning
had two, but one did not stay; it crept
down my stem to meet the sun, SO that
it might grow beautiful with the rain
bow colors, but the other stayed with
me and owe to it duty for its
goodness.
IT must grow beautiful and sweet
for the dewdrop and myself to repay
it, and if as you say, Mr.. Bee, / am
the prettiest and sweetest flower in the
garden this morning, it is because
dewdrop nestles in my heart"
Mr.. Bee buzzed away. He did not
tell the rose that the little dewdrop

CHOOSE CHAIRS FOR
COMFORT


There are two important points that
you should have in mind when pur-
chasing every chair-the first, vision
Of the position the chair is to occupy
In the room; and the other, an idea
of who is to sit in the chair most
whether it is to be used by a man or
woman, by regular member of the
family or an occasional guest.
No doubt most buyers do have the
first point in mind, but how many, do
you think, give any attention to the
latter?
A guest who has dropped in, all
furred and hated, for short call
will generally be much more COM
Portable in a straight back, rather low
chair, without arms, so that she may
have perfect freedom when turning
from side to side to converse with the
different members of the family. Hence
we have reception" chairs
A chair bought for man should be
very different in both shape and size
from a woman's. For one thing the
seat should be higher and deeper, the
back should be constructed different
ly, and altogether it should be much
more commodious piece Of furniture.
Very soft commodious chairs with
down cushions are generally liked by
men better than women. Perhaps that
is because when woman drops down
to rest for few moments she general
ly likes to busy herself with some
quiet craft-a bit of unfinished sew
Ing or embroidery perhaps-an such
chairs are not conducive to activity.
When sitting down to work, chair
with broad, deep seat, and high,
almost straight back that will sus-
tain us erect will be found to be the
most comfortable.
Many people bewail the popularity
of the rocker" even contending that
there is no such thing as a comfort
able rocking chair, and that it only
dissipates the energy and makes for
NERVES"
Which brings us up to the point that
every chair should be of the most sub
stantial kind, with none too good for
constant use; and that only after a
chair has been selected to conform to
the dimensions Of the person who is
to sit in it, and answered every test
for comfort, can the design and style
be considered.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND H. ALLEN
GETTING SOMETHING TO
GO WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
OOOOOOOOOO'
20, 1922, Harland H. Allen.)

"When I am buying one new article
I always try to select something that
will go we'll with what | have on
hand" says one well-dressed woman.
l call that frst-rate guide in
choosing new clothes.
For instance, If you have gray furs,
don't buy brown dress, but choose
black or blue or gray, so that next
winter they will look well together.
But if you have brown hat, do not
select a gray dress, but take brown
one.
When a woman buys at random any
color she may fancy, it can readily
be seen that she will require many
more clothes than the woman who
selects everything new to harmonic
with something she already has.
Many a hat looks well with one
suit, but does not go with any of the
others. An evening coat may look
lovely with your blue dress, but posi-
lively hideous with the pink one, so
that they can never be worn together.
If you know that blue and brown, for
example, are your most becoming col
ors, you should decide which of these
is going to be most popular with the
fashion dictators, or best suited to
your purpose, and let this be the gen.
eral tone of your wardrobe, keeping
all your coats, suits and gowns, at
least in harmony with it. Especially
can the number of outer coats be re-
duced in this way. And, of course,
all waists made this season will then
be just the thing to wear with the
next new suit.
In the same way, if you can afford
only one new outfit, and you decide
that a tailored suit best fills your
need do not spoil it by purchasing
an over-elaborate hat, or shoes meant
only for party wear Or if you have
found by experience that fluffy, frilly
things best fulfill your purpose, do not
change over to tailored clothes all at
once, and expect to keep harmoni.
Gus effect
This is one of the greatest secrets
Of economical dressing. If you will
plan your wardrobe so that any article
you buy can be worn with any of the
others, you will find that you do not
begin to need so many hats, gloves,
shoes, furs, petticoats, parasols, and
the like, as the woman who does not
use such foresight in her shopping.

BREAKFAST
And to breakfast with what appetite
you haVe-ShakeSpeare

And to breakfast with what appetite
you have.-Shakespeare
COME of the men back from France
~ are full of enthusiasm over the
French way Of solving the breakfast
problem. They like the habit of taking
a light breakfast of coffee and rolls
on rising and not assembling for a
hearty breakfast until the middle of
the day. That second breakfast, which
is more like our luncheon is a leisure
ly meal and quite often it is the first
occasion of the day when the entire
family gathers together.
There is not much likelihood that we
will adopt the continental breakfast,
bit it is easy to see that we Americans
are finding the convenience of having
a breakfast that is a movable feast.
That Isl we no longer regard it as es--
sential for every one to appear around
the breakfast board at once. The time
for breakfast should be arranged to
suit the convenience of the one who
breakfasts and this is quite possible
to manage, whether you have many
servants or none. If there are guests
in your house they will quite likely
ask you before retiring for the first
night what time you have breakfast in
the morning. If they do not ask, you
should tell them your breakfast ar
rangements. A very good thing to do
is to tell them that breakfast is served
up to a certain time in the morning.
If there are some members of your
household who arise from necessity or
choice at very early hour, that is
no reason why guest within your
walls, who may not be used to so early
a rising hour or who perhaps needs
more sleep after a journey, should
rise at the same time. Moreover, we
no longer eat the kind of breakfasts
that must be served promptly, as soon
as they are ready. Fruit will keep all
the morning and cereal, if left in a dou-
Bile boiler and covered on the stove,
does not deteriorate. Eggs can be
boiled as they are needed and coffee
can be left in the percolator for an
hour or so without becoming unpala-
table, or it is an easy matter to make
a fresh brew when the late break
fasters need it.
There is not the slightest discour-
