Dear Social Corner Sisters:—As ring draws near 1 suppose you are all planning, as far as possible, to re- plenish your wardrobe. How many of you have house dresses on your list? 1 am afraid we all consider too much our appearance outside of the home to the detriment of our appearance dur- ing our working hours. After we have purchased, our spring clothes we generally have little if any- thing left for house dresses and con- sequently we make use of some dis- carded dress quite out of place in the kitchen. 1 decided this year to have my house dresses completed first. {,L find that the crinkled seersucker gives the most satisfactory results as far as wear and laundering are con- cerned, they wash very easiiy and do not fade and require no ironing ex- cept where there is trimming used. I am having one each of dark blue; brown and gray stripe and having two aprons and a dust cap made of the same material as each dress. Hach dress and cap is trimmed with _self colored chambray. The dresses have square neck and short sleeves trimmed with bands of the chambray and also a piping of same where waist and irt join. Cap has a band of -the chambray. prons are the short three cornered hich are worn so much now and the edge is finished with scalloped braid purchased at the “Ten Cent Store”. When the first set was made it looked so'nice that I decided to tell you all about them. Helena: Did you ever try dried beef with macaroni escalloped in the same manner as your “Escalloped Oysters and Macaroni”? It is delicious. Best wishes to all the Sisters. NAN. POTATO FLOUR SPONGE CAKE. Dear Editor and Social Corner Friends: T have read your Social Cor- ner letters for a long time with much interest and have decided I would like to become a member.

You can purchase the potato flour from any grocer for 10 cents a package and can make four loaves of cake with that size package.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis- ters: May I, too, enter your charm- ing circle? One of the things I like best about the Social Corner is the variety of subjects discussed;: so since 1 do not wish to be o parasite, taking all and siving nothing, 1 will write 8. few words on the laying of the table for dinner. ing the table all the linen should be a spotless white, and under- neath the linen table cloth should be spread one of thick cotton flannel or, baize to give the linen a finer appear- Ierse and meatly folded napkins, with pieces of bread three or four inches lons, placed between the folds but not to completely conceal it are laid on each plate. An ornamental centrepiece,, or vase, filled with a few rare flowers, put on the table. All dishes should be arranged -in harmony with the decorations, such ts, relishes and confectionersy. of dishes has also & great deal to do with the appearance of a dinner table, Beside each plate should be laid as many knives, forks, and spoons as will De required for the several cours vidual salt cellar may each plate. The dessert plates should be set ready ,each with a doily; and a finger- bowl partly filled vyith water, in which is drepped a slice of lemon, these with extra knives and forks an spoons, should be on the sideboard ready for, use when required. At the end of each: course plates give way for those of the next. Soup and fish being the first course, plates of soup are usually placed on the table before dinner is announced. Soup and fish being disposed of, then comes the roasts, entrees, poultry, etc. After dishes have been passed and are required no more, they may be set upon the sideboard. Jellies and sauces should e helped on the dinner plate, not on a small side dish, if they are not to be eaten as u dessert, The hostess should retain her plate, knife and fork, till all guests have, finished. The crumb-brush is used hefore the dessert is brought; then all glasses, except flowers, and water-tumblers are removed. = The dessert plate con- taining the finger-howl, also a. dessert knife and fork should then be set be- fore each guest, who should remove the finger-howl and its doily and knife and fork to the table, leaving the plate ready for dessert. Sugar should always be placed up- on the table and if cream is required let it stand by the dish it is to be served with. Coffee and tea are served lastly, served clear and passed on a tray, then the sugar and cream passed, so that each guest may season to_ suit him- a be placed at THE CARE OF THE HANDS. Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis- ters: Put a little ammonia or borax, in the water vou wash your hands with, will keep the skin clean and soft. A little catmeal mixed with the wa- ter will whiten the hands. The best preparation for the hands at night is the white of egg, with a grain of alum dissolved in it. Spread it on your hands end the work is done. The roughest and -hardest hands can be made soft and white in a month's time by doctoring them a little at Dbedtime; and afl ‘the tools You-need are a nail-brush, a bottle of ammonia, a_box of powdered borax, and a little fine, white sand to rub the stains off; or a cut lemon will do even >, T have got a wood- Come up and sit awhile ‘on it?

SAMANTHA. M. Roena Describes Her LIVING-ROOM. WARJROBE BEY -ROOA PLAN OF COTTAGE Dear Editor and Social Corner ters: It seems like a long time since I have added my mite to the Social Corner, I am afraid our kind Editor will think T am very ungrateful in not acknowledzing his~ very ndness in making it possible for all the Social Corner Sisters to have a pitture of my dear little home, and have a glimpse of me as I am in Ohio. I surely do appreciate this kindness, and his kind words I appreciate more. As he has given you a picture of the outside, I thought perhaps the plan of the inside would alsg®be pleasing to some of the older writers. My house has four rooms and a bath, two closets, ome wardrobe and one cupboard built in, The cellar is 12 feet by £ The house is heated and lighfed all through with natural gas. I have hot and cold water in kitchen sink and bathroom. ‘The bath is heated with a horseshoe burner under the circular boler. We have no city water supply, so it was necessary for me to have a cie- tern and cesspool dug: they are ce- monted; also walks are or cement. I have the gravity water system, with a force pump in the cellar; enamel tank in the attic. I prefer the air pres- sure, but it is more expensive, and my friends thought it would be too hard for me to operate. The woodwork hardwood finish., The frame ofimy house came from the woods of my childhood home, making it doubly: dear to me. The paper is very neat and pretty, harmonizing with the rugs and carpets and draperles-of the rooms.
