this day of days.
 All the old ladies and lonely old maids are hostess to swarms of gall lant young beaux. France takes It's social obligations very seriously, and one of the most rigid of these Is New Years calls.
 New Years calls are such a de- lightful custom, 1t seems a pity to have 1t fall into disuse. It Is so pleasant to see ones friends on this first day of brand new year.
 Why not send each of them your calling card, with a friendly invita- ton scribbled on 1t to your inti- mates, and the more formal an- nouncement "At home from four to seven on New Years day" to the others on the list?
 Then build up q cracking fire on the hearth and sec that the "mistletoe and holly hang high" and that the house wears It's best dress or polish and perfection. Candlelight and freight are suit ably soft illumination for such a scene, and if a glint of snowy land scape peeps from under lowered window shades, so much the more atmosphere for your New Years afternoon.

New Years day is pretty grand day. No mistakes on anybody's calendar. Nothing to look back upon and everything to look for- ward to. The French have a nice name for 1t. They call 1t "Le Jour de rAn," which means the day of the year.
 New Years day Is a great day in France. There the old custom of New Years calls continues, and 1t Is done with such dignity and charm. It Is the gentlemen who call; the ladies receive" in the quaint and lovely old sense of the word.

CZ- liant acting in a new play--or Q home party, logs cracking, conversation at top speed--any of those may introduce New Years eve, but in each case the hostess responsibility Is iden- tical.
 She must be sure that the supper at the climax Is in tune with the thrill of the occasion. The food in appearance and taste must match or surpass the effect of the enter- tainment, 50 that the guests will depart sincerely expressing thanks for delightful time." Supreme food for New Years eve of all oc- casions, should cause the guests to talk about its perfection and beau- tiful serving on their way home and for days after.
 Every hostess wants this to happen, and the search for the lit- erally magic" menu Is arduous to say the least. It must consist of things simple to prepare adn easy to serve, inviting to see and per- feet to the palate. A great volume of hints from successful hostesses, and comments from guests have led to the suggested menu given here. 1t meets the problem in all essen- tial respects-and (no small meri) 1t is not expensive. The chocolate cake particularly, is captivating to look at, and brings forth the "oh's" and "ah's' to much desired.

WOMAN'S NEW DAY
Love No Longer Is Sole Existence,
Says Writer.


BIZ NEA gerUice
LONDON, April 17.-Love must
have been woman'S sole existence
years ago. But Ursula Bloom, ia
nous novelist, says that love is no
longer woman's whole existence. A
career is the logical thing for a
woman to choose, she thinks.
Love demands everything OF a
woman" she says. Love offers her
home which is too often the pri-
son of her better self. It saddles
her with worries, it ages her with
childbirth and cares, with the per-
petual effort to make ends meet.
ION the other hand, the career
is a sound proposition. An ade-
quate salary will supply her with
comfortable rooms. These are not
her prison. They do not confuse
her and her life is not cluttered up
with the workings or home.
To-day opportunity has opened
most of its doors to woman. I'm
doubtedly she has come into her
own"
