to gather rose leaves for our pot
pourris?
For our new readers I will tell
how we prepare %these leaves for
lovely satchets, excellent for Christ
mas giving, and a gift so full of sen
timent.
All rose leaves are good Dry them
thoroughly, and put them in glass
jar. l fill a quart jar at time. Add
cinnamon, ground cloves and nut
meg and allspice, one teaspoonful
each. Also add teaspoon of good
sachet powder. I use Azurea, as it
| is very pungent. Shake your jar
we'll so that the powder is thorough
ly distributed. Close your jar tight
and allow to remain closed for about
ten days. When you open this jar
"all the perfumes of Araby" will
greet you.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
p, L. w. B.-The most successful
way ! have ever employed in ship
ping out flowers was one that l used
with jonquils. | soaked a piece of
cotton in water, wrapped the stems
of the jonquils in this, covered the
cotton with oiled or rather waxed
paper tied this snugly and packed
my box with the flowers alternat-
| ing. stem and blooms. They went
perfectly. "
wren-If you have given the boy
every opportunity ITO see that you
really like him, and regret the joke, I
| do not see what else you can do. Your
own conduct would keep him from
believing anything your cousin
might say. Many people dislike a
joke to the point of never overlook
ing it. All that you can do is to
! conduct yourself in such way as to
win his friendship and respect. And
do let this be lesson to you that
practical jokes are not in the least
! funny.
June-Picn.c sandwiches should
always be made with a view to the
condition that they will be in when
served. For this reason, a very
moist sandwich should be avoided
A too dry sandwich is equally objec.
tionable. When / want. to have sar'
dine sandwiches I take my materials
with me and make the sandwiches
at the picnicf The same way with
tomato sandwiches. Ham, cheese,
! chicken or any meat sandwich will
keep well. Spread your bread with
dressing, that will keep it just moist
enough. OF course you will have tC
have your sandwiches well wrapped
to keep them~well at all.
Bess-If a boy is sufficiently &C
ceptable for you to go walking with
him, and your parents do not OBJ
ject, there is no reason, when he
wishes TO go home with you. why
you should not ask him. When &
boy gives you candy, flowers, books
etc. it is the proper thing to thank
him cordially, saying that you APP
preciate his thinking of you, ant
know that you will enjoy whatever
the gift happens to be. You natur
ally suppose a man loves you If he
asks you to marry him. His conduct
will have to be the proof of that.
