My Neighbor Soys:

In selecting color for the
flowers you use to decorate your
home it is well to remember
that blue flowers usually 20
better in a small room, while
red flowers should be used in
a very large room or to accent
certain places in a room.
Keep meat in the upper part

full flavor and moisture.
To dust doughnuts with sugar
place the sugar in a paper sack
and put in six doughnuts at a
time. Hold the top of the sack
together and shake it. The
doughnuts will then be quickly
coated with sugar.

children, an irreparable wrong. For
to larger extent than they dream
of. women write their husbands
pricetags and we take man pretty
much at his wife's valuation. Nor
is this unreasonable. We naturally
conclude that the woman who is
married to a man and who knows
him as nobody else can, has better
line on him than we can possibly
get. So when Mrs. Smith tells us
what wonderful business man or
doctor or dentist or whatnot her
husband is, we believe her. And we
also believe her when she tells us
that her husband is lacking in in
dustry and energy and has no initi-
ative or judgment.
A man can't fail if he has a wife
behind him who believes in him.
No matter how many bumps he gets
he always comes back. But the wife
who belttles her husband and makes
him believe that there is nothing in
him is licked before he starts to
fight.

Nj a n n e r S
of the
Moment

There is type of train traveller
who much prefers to let the fellow
next to him do his strap-hanging
for him. He is the man who
smugly gets out his paper, leans
heavily upon his neighbor, and be-
gins to read. 1t leaves his neighbor
with no choice but to hang on a
strap in protection, and to give
up all thought of reading himself.
I think that the least the leaner
could do for his prop would be to
offer to read the headlines out loud
to him. In fact, the prop might
suggest it. If l hold you up, then
you read the paper to me and it
will be bargain, he might say.
But sometimes the leaner is so
oblivious to his surroundings that it
is difficult to engage him in CONVEX
sation. In that case, I can suggest
but one thing. The person against
whom he is leaning should just
quietly slip out from under and
move down to the other end of the
car. 1t will give the leaner a jolt, at
least. JEAN,

Queries
Proper Way to Set
Lunch, Dinner or
Supper Tables
BY EMILY POST.

Dear Mrs. Post: Please explain
the real difference between the set
ting of a dinner table, lunch table
and one set for supper.
Answer-The setting of lunch
table differs from a dinner table in
that mats or runners or bare table
take the place of a tablecloth. Nap
kins are smaller, bread and butter
plates are correct, and bouillon cups
or bowls are used in place of soup
plates. Tablespoons should be used
for rimless plates, as we'll as for the
formal dinner soup plates with rims
Candles are omitted unless the
dining table be dark without them.
A supper table is the same as a
lunch table with the addition of
candles as for dinner and its own
characteristic tea tray, holding tea
perhaps, but usually chocolate or
coffee equipment is placed in front
of the hostess, who always pours
whatever the hot beverages may be-
Even though called dinner" the
table appointments of the evening

precise as to correctness, actually

Avoid Mistake Made
BY This Young Girl.
Frances avoids the mistake
another girl made in her Office.
This young woman was about to be
married and she planned to con-
tlnue work after the ceremony. But
She was so busy with all the grim
details of her approaching nuptials
that she couldn't possibly handle
them outside the office.
So she stealthily addressed all her
wedding invitations on office time
and wrote lengthy letters of in
structlon to her bridesmaids. To
top it off, she mailed all these
eplstles with the firms stamps. She
got married all right, but she didn't
continue to work after the ceremonv
at least not in the same office.
Her employer decided that business
was interfering too much with her
personal affairs, so he arranged for
her to have ample and permanent
leisure as far as he was concerned.
Frances tries to give the impress
sion that she is interested in her
Work-not just in quitting time, pay
day and her annual vacation. She
takes time off as seldom as possible,
and then only for a legitimate rea-
son. If she's i'll she lets her en-
ployer know as soon as possible. so
that he won't be inconvenienced
