lnEAR MRS. POST: A friend and
would like to give . large lunch

bridge, in honor of my new sister in
law, and we are not altogether sure
| about sending invitations. have
some of the folded cards similar to q
visiting card, but my name alone ap-
pears on the face of these. However,
We thought perhaps you might ad-
wise getting this same type of card
printed with both our names on the
front, and then if this is right will
you please suggest the wording? Also,
there is one other confusing point. We
would like to invite several good
friends of my brother-the husband
Of the guest of honor. They do not
know me very well and it is even pos
sible that they may not recognize my
recently acquired married name We
are wondering, therefore, If we should
have the cards printed Anne Jones
Blank" instead Of Mrs. Andrew
Blank"
Answer-No. Your name should
appear Is Mrs. Andrew Blank. And
since you have these cards, the. name
Of the other hostess could be written
under your own. On the inside write:
To meet

1t will not be necessary to explain

particular instance write (nee Mary

ceptlng, Is that the party is given

simple, should any one not recognize
your name. to ask younc Mrs. Brown
who you are.
DEAR MRS. POST: Ata recent
church dinner we called upon
the clersyman's wife to say srsce,
Her husband was not present or we
would have called upon him, nat
urally. But now the question is being
discussed as to whether it was not out
OF place to call upon q woman when
there were men present.
Answer-N was quite natural to
suppose that the clerrymans wife
would be best prepared TO ask grace,
unless one Of the men present was a
clergyman. To call upon man not
accustomed to saying grace might
have embarrassed him greatly.

and cause child to think that 1t Is
something shameful. The feeling be-

1t Is never possible to hide feeling
from child. It seeps from mind to
mind. Its communication Is electric
and its force Is dynamic You can
no more tell q child one thing while
you feel or think another, and have
him accept the word rather than the
thought and the feeling, than you can

Children take their habits from the
parents feelings, whims and actions,
not from their words. Even in SO sim
pie a matter as eating, a parents at
titude-one he fondly thinks he hides
from the child-speaks to silence his
words, and the child follows copy.

Attitudes on behavior, on religion,
on relations with other people in busi-

were necessary. The clearest express

has taught them her unbelief, but she
doesn't know it."
Children know When you want to
rear children successfully you must
first like them. Love them, If possible,
but like them you must. or you can
not teach them a thing. They close
the doors against those whose feeling
is not with them. They will take
anything from the one they know likes
them. Nothing from the one who dis
likes them. And they will know.
After establishing communication
with them through mutual liking, you
have to make sure that you believe
firmly in what you teach them. You
cannot haxe reservations. Children
do not nesd sto be told of the, faith
that Is In you. They feel it. They
know 1t. What you would teach q child
to be you must first be in yourself.
What you are Is what you teach.

VIRTUALLY all brides q

~ bridegrooms 60 to the altar
". with their hearts and heads
filled with high ideals and
noble purposes. Theirs is going to
be the perfect marriage. They are
going to make 4 home that will be q
place Of peace and happiness. They
are never going to quarrel or take
each other for granted. They are
never going to let the fire of love
60 out on their hearthstone for want
Of tending. They are going to make
their marriage a grand and glorius
success.
That few couples live up to the good
intentions with which they started
out Is only too sadly true, and If
most men and woman after S, 10,
is years Of marriage would make
a check OF themselves to see what
kind Of husbands and wives they
have really made they would get
the shock Of their lives. They would
be amazed to realize that they had
done pretty nearly all Of the things
that they had promised themselves
never to do, and left undone the
things that they most intended to do.
When John married he never
doubted he would always be the
perfect lover. He would never let
Mary become one of those pathetic,
heart-hungry women who are so
starved for affection that they grow
bitter or fiirtatious. He would tell
her every day how beautiful and
wonderful she was and that she was
the only woman in the world to him.
He would pay her little attentions on
which women set such inordinate
value. He would never become the
kind Of husband who treats his wife
as II she were pust piece of useful
household furniture.

he would be to find it had been years
and years since he had even thought
of Mary as a lady love or paid her
a compliment or given her a kiss

on the cheek favored with ham and
eggs instead Of passion. OF course.
he still loves her, but she would have
to be mind-reader to find it out.
When John married Mary and took
her life into his hands, he intended
to make it happy, but when he stops
to ask himself what he has done to
keep her glad she chose him for a
husband, he is appalled,. He has fed
and clothed her, but she has earned
her board and keep a thousand times
over by her work for him. For the
rest he hasn't considered her pleas
ure much, or felt called upon to enter
tain her or amuse her or even to talk
to her OF an evening. And he has
made home place where he could in
dulge his tempers and his grouches
and vent on her the irritability he
dared not show his boss or his clients
or his customers. Really, when he
comes to think of it, he can't recall
anything that he has done to make
marriage picnic for his wife.
When John married Mary he never
dreamed that he could be anything
but gentle and tender and chivalrous
to her, and when he checks up on his
conduct to her he finds out that he
hasn't even been polite. He hasn't
hesitated to tell her that she has lost

Steaming Vegetables.

Try steaming Brussels sprouts, broc-
coli, celery, asparagus, onions, carrots,
cauliflower or turnips. They will keep
their shapes better and won't lose so
much flavor. They also will cook in
less time than they would if they we're
boiled. Use regular steamer or put
the vegetable in large strainer or
colander and suspend it in kettle of
boiling water an inch above the water

made primarily for daytime wear.
With black it is superb. In its mas

Is irresistible.
The new interest in gold has come
to us along with lot of other fashion
inspiration from the 1890 and 1900
period. There are many heavy chains,
lockets, clasped hands and old floral
forms, but they are old fashions plus
lot more glamour than they used
in the old days. Where they wore
one chain, We use three or four, and
although We borrow their motifs in
many instances, we elaborate upon
them and bring them in line with
the whole modern tendency of drama

the Importance of quantities of gold
for daytime wear is the first really
new fashion in jewels since the ap-
pearance of clips about 10 years ago.
COLORED stones are of great inter-
est, set in either gold or plati-

old-fashioned manner, but set in mod

colored stones. Topaz is mentioned as
particularly smart with tWeeds. The

Check.Up Necessary as Altar
Vows Too Often Forgotten.

Is fool and doesn's know what she
Is talking about. He swore at the altar
TO endow her with all OF his earthly
goods, but he has been a tightwad who
mas never given her a dollar to spend
as she pleased. Taking it all in all, IL
Jonn Is honest with himself when he
auolts his accounts with his wife, he
doesn't see where she has got much
percentage out Of marriage with him.
WHEN Mary checks up on her per-
formance as a wife. as compared
with her girlish ideal of the kind Of
a wife she was going to be, she is
in the red. too, up to her neck. She
was always going to keep herself
glamorous in her husbands eyes, and
she has slumped down into a frump
who only dresses up for company and
goes around home looking like heck.
She was going to keep romance alive
and be her husbands sweetheart, and
she hasn't told him since their honey
moon how big and strong and hand
some he is, and how proud she is of
him. Maybe she loves him, but he
doesn't know it. So far as he can tell
she merely regards him as a cash reg
ister.
She was going to be her husbands
companion, but she has never had any
time for him since the first baby came.
That turned her from being all wife
into being all mother, and since then
she has given all her caresses, all Of
her thoughts, all of her interests to
Junior and Sister.
And Mary intended to make such
comfortable home for her husband
and be such helpmeet, and she has
never even learned how to boil an egg
or to run budget.
What pity that husbands and wives
do not check up on themselves every
now and then and see whether they
are making good on their bridal inten-
tions. 1t would save lot of divorces.
