Formal or Informal Afternoon Tea
BIZ LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

means. The fact that one acknowledges
hospitality in this fashion Is no sign
of lack of means, but the fact does
remain that it is the most economical
method of making return for favors
received.
The fexibility of such an occasion
permits it to be formal, with orchestra
for dancing, with entertaining mum
berS" interspersed throughout the att
ernoon, or informal, with merely the
music Of voices and teacupS. But there
is one law which pertains to either
case. It is absolutely necessary that
theoccasion be marked by perfection
of detail, that exquiSiteness be expressed
to the utmost of the hostess ability, not
only in the "dainties" served, but In
the manner in which they are set out.
No pains are too great to be taken
by the punctiliouS hostess OF large or
small means which will add to the
daintiness and delectable quality of the
miniature repaSt. Take such detail
as the manner of serving sugar at such
an occasion. Time was when loaf sugar
was sufficiently novel to be departure
from the commonplace granulated,
which it supplanted. Now that that
is current, the hostess allows q choice
of loaf sugar, sugar crystals, in white
and colors, or goes step farther. The
latest wrinkle" is to offer tiny per
fumed" candies. These sweets are
globuleS of colored sugar coating, which
inclose liquid fiavorings, released into
the tea cup when the heat and stirring
have dissolved or broken the outer
crust.
One hostess gives choice Of sliced
orange or lemon in the cup, another
offers Jasmine tea," in which are tiny
jasmine flowers along with the tea
leaves: and from the infusion delicate
perfume of the flowers rises. Candied
violets. cherries and ginger are some
times selected to augment the regulation
accessories.
So it will be seen that, partly because
afternoon tea is the least utilitarian and
most diminutive of meals, 1t serves
many q woman as means OF express
ing to others her love of the exquisite
and luxurious and extending her gra-
ciousness in a way otherwise impossible.

MILADY BEAUTIFUL
BY LOIS LEEDS.

This method of winding the hair on the
rods is not suitable for all types OF
hair, however. When a poor head OF
hair has been permanently waved 1t
needs an extra amount Of care to keep
It from becoming dry and straw-like.
You should have an oil treatment before
each shampoo, as this will encourage
the wave: use only pure CASTLE soap
for washing the hair. Have the finger
wave put In after each shampoo. Mas
sage the scalp we'll every day. Spray
brilliantine on your hair frequently.
LOIS LEEDS.
Scaly Nose; Measurements.
Dear Miss Leeds-Q) Please recon-
mend something for a scaly nose. I'D
We are two chums and our ages and
measurements are as follows: Number
one is Is years old, feet inches tall
and weighs i02 pounds. Her bust
measures 80 inches; waist, 20: hips,
81; thigh, 10; calf, Is; ankle, az.
Number two Is 81 years old. feet 3
inches tall and weighs liz pounds.
Her measurements are: Bust, "a; waist,
30; hips, IS; thigh 10; calf l212: ankle,
gSA. Are these correct2 TWO CHUMS.
Answer-(l) After washing your face
at bedtime, rinse and dry well and rub
little cold cream on your nose. wipe
of the excess cream that is not readily
absorbed by the skin. If your nose is
inclined to be oily at times, use an
astringent cream instead of cold cream.
A skin lotion or cold cream should also
be used as powder base on scaly,
dry skin. (2J The first girl is II pounds
below the average weight for her age
and height. All her measurements, ex-
cept ankle and waist, are little too
slender for her height. Her hips should
be at least as large as her bust to be
in good proportion. The 2l-year-old
girl is 10 pounds below the average
weight for her age and height. Her
thinness seems to be in her legs as her
calf is very small The other measure
ments are good Her waist is rather
too wide In proportion, however. I adj
wise both OF you girls to build up your
weight to normal; don't try to keep
yourselves thin. LOIS LEEDS.

gainer. and to forget oneself s to

be gamer, and to forget oneself II to
be happy"
Said Phillips Brooks: mo man has
ever come to true greatness who has
not felt In some degree that his life
belonged to his race, and that what
God gives him He gives him for man
kind"
Nature teaches that giving is as vital
rs getting. Nothing that lives in ma
ture lives for itself alone. The plant
that absorbs carbonic acid from the
air must eXhale oxygen or 1t will die.
The same law governs human life. To
live selfishly Is to live meanly and
miserably. Indeed, the man who lives
for himself alone does not really live.
He is dead while he ives-dead to all
that is good and beautiful. dead to
happiness and to all that makes life
worth living.
Life is an elixir that must be shared,
or. like Solomon's elixir, it will soon
evaporate. Selfishness may give SEM
blance of gain. but all its gains are
losses. 1t intensifies ones demands
while diminishing his resources. Be-
ware of selfishnesS.

Two Good Breads.

Brown bread-Mix together one and
one-half cupfuls of graham flour with
three fourths cupful of corn meal, four
teaspoonfuls of baking powder, half a
teaspoonful of salt and half a cupful
of onions. Combine with one and one
third cupfuls of sweet milk and four
tablespoonfuls of molasses and add one
unbeaten egg. Mix thoroughly and
steam for three hours. A double boiler
is very convenient to use when steam
ing bread in this way.
Peanut butter bread-Sift two cup
fuls, of white -four with four teaspoon
fuls of baking powder, one teaspoonful
of salt and a half cupful of sugar. Add
one cupful of milk to two-thirds cupful
of peanut butter. Blend we'll and add to
the dry ingredients. Beat thoroughly.
Bake in a creased loaf pan in slow
oven until brown. This makes an ordi-
nary sized loaf.

Tradition says that when Solomon

when you had the permanent and you
have expected too much of the wave.
Permanents require regular care to
keep them in good condition. 1t is
usually fine, soft hair that will not
hold a wave well. The qualities in
hair that make it hold a wave well
are It's health and elasticity Having
your hair marcelled so often has prob
ably destroyed these qualities. The
way in which the hair is wound on the
wave determines to a large extent the
amount of care the finished wave will
require, The fiat wind will give a
wave that springs back into place after
wetting without finger or comb waving.
