KITY CLOVER. MAY BE MADE AT HOME. Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: Now that the evenings are getting longer, some of the Sisters may find time for more sewing. Here are two useful devices which may be readily made: Hair Curlers are -still in use, al- though we may not confess it aloud and seek to hide them under a bewitch- cap. Who does not remember see- ing a tiny tot with hair done in rags? There is nothing-that you can buy that will make the hair curl as naturally as the old-fashioned rag curlers. We have improved on this idea, and today the big sister is making her curlers out of ribbon, in her favorite color. Select ribbon three inches wide and 11 inches long. Double this, twist to- gother loosely and sew narrow ribbon of the same shade at each end. After the hair is rolled over the ribbonm, tie firmly together with the narrow ribbon ends. . Make two small flat bows with ends four inches long. Fasten one at each sido with the ends pinned down against the ears, and you have almost hidden the curlers, except where the color peeps through at intervals. A very useful Apron to wear when giving the wee tot its bath is made in three parts. The first is rubber cloth 24 inches long and 27 inches wide, with & muslin band. The second is elder- down 36 inches long, with Ioops of tape at the top. The third is like the sec- ond, but four inches shorter. Tie on number one, button number two on this, and number three over all, After baby is sponged and dipped in her tub, she is again wrapped in this top apron, which has loops at the lower end to fasten over the buttons at the band. It keeps her snug and secure while drying head, face and ears. When sLo 1s dry, unfasten number three and throw it aside; you then have a dry apron to wrap her in while dressing.

I do not agree with those who think the Social Corner page is in danger of becoming a cook book. Its columns often contain a large and pleasant va- riety of themes; but I should like to suggest one more way in which, pos- sibly, it might be made to minister tg the mind as well as the body. All of those who so faithfully write to The Social Corner must have a fond- ness for writing and many of them evince considerable talent. Probably most of the writers would be glad of some help in the exercise and cultiva- tion of their gift, and would welcome hints about finding time to write. A few years ago a friend who has achieved success in writing told me of a little magazine which she had found very helpful. I promptly sub- scribed for it and although the price twice has been ramed I continue to {eel that the magazine is indispensable o_me. It is not a large magazine. One can read it through in an hour, or in small installments of spare moments. Its purpose and ideal are to encourage and help those who are striving to write and find a market for their manuscripts, Certain special departments are con- tinued from month to month, the other articles are varied from time to time The special departments are A Short Story Virtuoso, The Literary Market, How_to Write Advertisements, Writ- ing Photo-plays, and interviews with and letters from writers who have “made good.” Among the miscellaneous articles are helpful ones about grammar, punc- tuation, literary style, plot construc- tion, etc. In the Short Story Virtuoso one or more stories which have been pub- lished in some recent magazine are reviewed and criticised. Their faults and virtues, their style and plot con- struction are carefully and intelligent- ly explained, ‘Whenever it is possible, I secure the magazines mentioned and read and re-read stories and criticisms.- In this way has been acquired what little knowledge I possess of the way to,get the stories which clamor to be writ- ten upon paper. I have also attained unto a greater enjoyment of the storfes I read because of an increas- ing interest in and appreciation of the ‘way that others do it. In The Literary Market is given the best knowledge obtainable of the needs and requirements of up-to-date mag- azines and papers. Here also are the names of publishers of books, music end plays, and full details of prize contests. Courage, patience and optimism are the key notes of most oZ the articles. Courage to begin to write, no matter what may be one’s age; optimism, which will enable one to continue in the face of obstacles and hindrances. In a recent issue of the magazine was a letter from Amelia Barr, now in her eighty-second year, to a lit- erary aspirant. She wrote: “Your age is-ail right. -1 was just forty when I began writing. Writing before that age is only pouring one ink bottle intc another, Life must go before litera- ture or else literature is little worth.” Among the many examples of pa- tience and perseverance the followin; two are speclally impressive: Mr, Jer kins, the managing editor of The At lantic Monthly, gave, at the Bosto: university, a _lecture on saort story were unable to attend them feel grate- | ter is a good rémedy for sore throat, ful to the sisters who wrote such good | especially if the throat is raw.

Mr. Editor and Soclal Corner Mem- bers: The ruit season calls out many useful recipes. I find pleasure in sending two someone may find useful Pear Mascotte—The ways of serv- ing pears being less varied than ways of serving many other fruits, house- keepers may welcome the following recipe, which is new and novel. Pear mascottee is a dainty sweet, which combines choice flavors. Take good- sized fruit, core, after cutting In halves and peel. Cook in a thin syrup—equal parts of sugar and wa- ter—until tender, then let cool. When cool and ready to serve, fill the cen- ters with vanilla ice cream. Slice al- monds with a sharp knife and stick these shavings into the pear halves like quills. Set the prepared fruit squares of spongecake and pour over each a boiled custard sauce flavored with chocolate. Peach Charlotte—Soak a third of a box of gelatine in a third of a cup of cold water to soften; then dissolve it with a third of a cup of bofling water. Add a cup of sugar and the juice of one lemon and rub enough freshly stewed ripe yellow peaches through a- sieve to make half a pint, add to the gelatine mixture and stir all together in a basin. Set in cold water until the mixture begins to mold rinsed with c(fld ‘water, and set away to harden. HANNAH WHO. ‘Willimantic, A CHAT FROM PAULA.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: The warning to the Sisters from Aunty last week against the delusions of new thought surprised me because I know she is a good Sister who means to do right and not knowingly violates a ain- e scriptural injunction, but she fo! got the “judge not lest ye be judged” admonition. It seems to me from much reading that new thought is simply a new way of galvanizing old thought into life. free choice and individual responsibil- ity.
