Great Nature stands with her arms wide for the little ones, inviting healthful play in the open air, when muscles are hardened, finicky appetites im- proved and inches and pounds taken on. But the mother must be very careful about food on the hotter days %| —be careful, indeed, all summer long i dPPPRebEPIIO IS BISEI IS P eES PSS90 | —and the daily grooming of the little body must be thorough and regular. Sponge the little body down very gently with tepld water if the child seems too tired for a tub bath, and re- peat the operation several times dur- ing the hottest days. A teaspoonful of ammoniated toflet water will make this sponging doubly refreshing, but it this is used be careful not to have the water get into the youngster's eyes. When the little head feels burn- ing bhot, and the hair is soaked with perspiration and is sour as well, a shampoo would not be amiss, and it would doubtless be relished. The ex- tra combing the small head gets at this time would be an added comfort —you know how pleasant a combing Meeting of the Woman's Aid And Missionary Society. The above society of the Lutheran church held its regular monthly meeting yesterday afternoon in the new church. The regular program of the readings and songs was ren- dered and the routine business dis- posed of. After the regular business an informal exchange of views and opinions with reference to the needs and plans for the future of the church proved very interesting. . . . v LD FASHIONED GARDEN. i time garden, ~t-scented flowers, < a-buzzin’ the peaceful hours. g a bit awry foet a-swingin', . «th the lilac bush violets springin'. + k to Paradise, i of ‘'em blowin,’ b ¢ ws us though the cares, | Syme Luncheon Dishes. 1s to your own tired head—and when f | pain o' knowin', These dishes are suitable for eith-| it {s time to dress the youngster for er luncheon or supper the afternoon pay more attention to ki | wiles 0 city streets When there are bits of left-over | finding the garments that will keep it 1 irit like smoke from fire, | chicken (not enough for a meal) pre- | ool than to putting on those for i inside that gate, pere it by cutting it in small pieces, | mere looks.

Will you kindly advise the custom concerning letters of condolence and congratulation? Should letters be sent only to friends out of town, or may they be used between friends in the same city? Are letters of condolence better than a call? ANXIOUS. Letters of condolence are always proper, no matter whether to a person living out of town or in one's home city. A card with the word “sympa- thy" or “to inquire" left at the house of mourning is always good form, for, of course, only the nearest and dearest friends see a bereaved family; but afterward they look at the cards and letters and deeply appreciate all who have thought of them in their sorrow. Letters of congratulation are always acceptable, enhancing whatever the good fortune may be by sharing with one's frienus. The good book says *“rejoice with those who do rejoice and weep with those who mourn,” or words to that effect, and it is a pretty good maxim to follow. Glving a Breakfast, Would you kindly give a few sug- gestions as to the menu and entertain- ment suitable for a breakfast for about 25 young ladies? This is for no special occasion, but I wish something a little different, SUBSCRIBER. For so many guests you will prob- ably seat them at small tables, It would be pretty to have a different color of candle and flowers at each table. Serve first a chilled fruit mix- ture, chicken and mushroom patties, Saratoga potatoes, tiny hot, buttered biscuit, olives, salted nuts, radishes. Asparagus salad or tomatoes stuffed with shrimps, A strawberry mousse, with small cakes or a tutti-frutti ice cream makes an acceptable finish, Grape juice, Iced tea or coffee may be the choice of beverages, with a cordial, Afterward have a reading or a short musical programme. Perhaps you have some friend who is clever enough to entertain with personal reminis- cences of some unique or interesting cxperience in travel at home or abroad, Etiquette at a Reception, Will you kindly inform me the proper thing to do at a reception? Should I leave my calling card? What should be served? S.A. B, Greet your hostess, be served to refreshments, leave your card and take your departure, is about the prescribed formula for an afternoon reception. Tea, coffee, chocolate, sandwiches, wafers, nuts and bonbons, salad, sher- bet of ice cream are the usual re- freshments scrved in the dining room. Two or more ladies, generally In!lmalu‘ friends of the hostess, “pour,” one or 1o waiters assisting in the service.
