Perhaps it will be pos- sible to get real cotton plants with the bursting cotton pods which may be used in lieu of flowers. Here 1s a laughable stunt with which to start i the evening's fun. Have narrow white cotton tape arranged as for an old- fashioned spider web, wind it in and out, over and under furniture, but in- stead of having all the guests play at once ask one person at a time and al- low three minutes to see how much tape he can entangle and roll up in that time. When the umpire calls, “Time's up,” the plece of tape is cut | off, and after all have had a chance, each piece of tape is measured and the ‘one having the longest piece is award- ed a prize, which should be of cotton fabric. In the instance where this was done the reward was a cotton batting doll candy box filled with candy. We have all seen the cotton Santa Claus figures and the little doll Christmas tree ornaments? Well, these would be Just the thing for favors at an affair of this kind. Another pastime would be to pass a tting the fourth largest number of words we will give g Chair, value, $5.00. or Words you have Saturday of each week.

The invi- tations were written on brown paper such as butchers use for wrapping meat, and the lettering was done with & heavy lead pencil. At the top of the sheet was this nursery rhyme: Hark hark; the dogs do bark; The beggars are coming to town— Some in rags, and some in tags, And some in a silken gown. followed by the request to dress “in gladdest rags" and come to the ad- dress on the day, date and hqur given. Masks to be removed at 10:30. The hostess handed each “beggar” a dance program number as high as the num- ber of her guests, and as each entered the large living-room, which had been cleared for dancing, a number was pinned upon the back so .votes could be registered as to “who was who,” for the best (or worst) costume. One basket filled with different colors and | may imagine the fun such a party lengths of cotton tape with knots tied , would make.

Bible Contest. @ days ago a correspondent re- quested a Bible guessing contest to use when she entertajned her Sunday school class. Here are a few questions and may be helpful, and I have no doubt others may be added to make it longer. The answers are not given, for it will be much more instructive it they are looked up, with the aid of a concordunce: Give the first and last words of the Bible. Whose three daughters were the fairest in all the land? How old was Methuselah when he dled? Who was called “a ready scribe in the law of Moses?" Give the names of the three persons who were put in the fiery furnace. Who was the author of the expres- sion, “What hath God wrought?” Who was Moses' brother? Who went down into a pit on & snowy day and slew a lion? o said: “The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved?” Who was the mother of Samuel? MADAME MERRI. B RO st bt b pt b =S ®woaaom o Vaporous Blouses. Summer blouses of chiffon or net, as delicate as the stuff that dreams are made of, had an irresistible appeal even when they were first shown in the chilly days of spring. Their own intrinsic charm won immediate popu- larity for them then. But now, with the days of mounting mercury at hand this diaphanous quality is to be the ! supreme touch of elegance of the sea- son. It characterizes entire toilettes composed of layers of net, chiffon and | filmy matrials. ONE’S COSTUME MEANS MUCH Girl That Is “Fond of Dress” Has Nothing With Which She Need Reproach Herself. It is often used as a reproach minlt girls in general that they are “fond of dress.” Nothing could be | more foolish, or generally unmerited than the implied reproof. The girl who {8 not fond of dress, who does not delight in clothing her pretty little person to the very best advantage, is not normal; which means that she lacks all things that make girlhood. | Dress will transform the merely girl " into a positive beauty, and make the plain girl at least distinguished. | A neat, smart, well groomed aspect has secured more enviable positions for the working woman than any abil- ity to reel off incredible numbers of words a minute on the typewriter, be- cause employers rightly expect com- mon sense, neatness and self-respect from the girl who garbs herself so suitably. Take the case of the damsel with flaming locks. In pink or pale blue one pities her; in white or brown, or brack, she is an artist's dream. | Every girl should study her special style and dress up to it. It i{s cne of the most pleasant of many pleasant life duties! | ik et | Ratine Coat and Skirt. ! A ratine suit, with shirt walsts of cotton crepe, voile, or washing silk, makes a serviceable and smart sum- mer outfit, one durable, comfortable, and in style. "t has the advantage over linen because linen crushes, while ratine shows creases and wrin- kies very little. Tne dark shades are sultable for street wear, and when | sofed can be laundered without' starch. It's price by the yard is rather | dear, but the material s 66 inches wide, needing only three and-a-half or | four years for a coat and skirt.
