Yesterday aftermoon a crowd of happy faced boys and girls gathered at the home of Mrs. B. F. Wilson on South Missouri avenue to celebrate the bitthday of Master Walton Wil- son, who had reached the important age of 7 years on this happy occa- sion. The little folks played games, aft- er which they were invited to the prettily arranged dining room, where delicious refreshments of ice cream and cake and candy were dain- tily served. Master Walton received many pret- ty and useful presents, which he will cherish as mementoes of the delight- . . L] Pleasant Visitors to the City. Mr. and Mrs, F. D. Colson and fam- ily, of Oscilla, former residents of Lakeland, are visitors to the city, the guests of Mrs. Colson's sisters, Mrs. Darracott and Mr. Browning. It has been four years since the family have been in Lakeland, and they are amazed at the growth the town has made in that time. ¢ o o Pumpkinville Graduation.

The Graduation of the Pumpkinville Academy is an en- tertainment that will never come again. If you miss it this time vou will have missed it for always LI I | secured | Not the Original Liberty Bell. A correspondent of the Literary Di- gest avers that the famous crack in the Liberty Bell is not a crack. but only the fac-simile of a crack. His as- sertion is that the original bell was in- deed cracked, but that the present bell | i8 a recast from a model of the old | one, with the crack filled up, though | still showing the lines of the de- | fect. A tollet vinegar of any desired odor {8 made by digesting four ounces of any fragrant flowers or scented herbs in one pint of strong white-wine vine- gar. Merely put the flowers in the cold vinegar and let it stand for a week, agitating three times daily; then strain several times, and repeat the process with more fresh flowers or herbs if the liquid is not sufficiently perfumed. Toilet vinegars made from dried herbs, such as lavender and rosemary or others, can be prepared in the same manner, only half the quantity of these being needed; but fresh materials are better, these exer- cising a more active result upon the skin. Women used to the coquetries of the tollet understand the use of tollet waters and vinegars of all sorts. Where cold cream is much employed, they are indispensable for taking the shine off the skin, and since a liberal use of cream burns the flesh, making it at last darker and rougher than be- fore—remember the point—the toilet vinegar s often required for a thor- ough cleansing. When using, about a tablespoonful of strong sort is put in a small bowl of water. For astrin- gent treatments of the neck the vine gar or water will be used full strength, after the throat has been washed, mas- saged and creamed. Sponging down with & solution of tollet vinegar and water is also very refreshing on a hot day and to sick persons, while if a hot plate 1s sprinkled with one or it is sprayed about the chamber the sick room will be gratefully purified. When treating sagging muscles of the neck use the vinegar hot. Where the herbs or flowers cannot be had, flower and herd olls achieve the next best thing in the way of a beneficlal tollet water, and & vinegar of this sort is as easily managed. One of the simplest lavender waters made, and which always recelves the name of “fine” in the drug stores, can be fabricated at home by digesting one ounce of micham oil of lavender in a half pint of strong rectified spirits. Other perfumed oflls can be used in the same way. A tollet water especlally for resting the muscles of the body owes its In- vention, it is sald, to Mme. Bernhardt, who used it every day, particularly when coming in from her outdoor ex- ercises. As this wonderful woman at sixtyelght or nine 1s younger than many women of forty, I would advise a little trial of her “calming” water, which is made in this manner: Alcohol Spirits of camphor. Spirits of ammonia. Bea salt ...

A | very good boy friend of mine has' failed to write to me for a very long ! time and I have never done zmy!hlng[ to stop him from corresponding. Would like to start corresponding with | him again, as we have been great | friends for four years, theretore 1| would like to continue being triends. I am now seventeen years old and | would like to know if it is proper tor me to wear ribbons on my hair? 1| don't care to do my halr upon my head. 1 want to look girlish as long as possible. 1 am an orphan and will take your advice any time. EUGENIA. Write a letter to your friend and ask | him why there has been such a long | tine between letters. You Kknow “Uncle Sam” occaslonally lets mail go astray, and it {8 possible that “he” has written you and you have never recelved the letter. So give him the benefit of the doubt and write once again to him. This {s all you can do. You are not a bit too old for hair rib- bons. From a 8chool Girl, I have been helped very much by your valuable column. Many thanks. Do you think a young lady should teach a young man to play cards? How often should a school girl let her beau call upon her, or do you think a girl of fifteen too young to recelve company ? Do you belleve in “leap year” af- fairs, where the girls go for the boys? Do you approve of going automobiling at night? “VIOLET EYES." There 18 no harm that I can see in teaching a young man to play cards, for I do not object to cards any more than any other game. A girl of fir- teen 13 entirely too young to have what you are pleased to call a “beau.” Walt until you are out of school before you allow such thoughts. Leap year par- ties are lots of fun when properly chaperoned, as all parties should be. I am not much in favor of night auto- mobdiling without a chaperone. From a “Young Girl.” I am a young girl of fourteen years. Is it right when at a party a boy who fs In my room at school escort me home? My brother s just my slze. When he has one or two boy friends at his home I8 it right for me to play games with them, H. SMITH. Certainly 1t was perfectly correct for your boy friend to see you safely home, and equally proper for you to help your brother entertaln his friends, that is, it he lkes to have you with him, and he shonld MADAME MERRI.
