Fur is composed of two different growths—under fur and over hair. The under fur, the thick, downy wool that covers the pelt, provides the warmth and durability. The over hair, which varies in length and thickness ry th grows, is straight, smooth and glossy and is usually the glory of the pelt. The over hair prevents the under fur from bhecoming matted. Dyed fur Is not as durable as nat- ural fur because of the chemicals used in its process. When selecting dyed furs always feel the pelt to ascertain whether or not it has been scorched. | It it is in good condition it will be pliable and soft and of uniform tex- ture. Another test is to take the fur in both hands and twist it with a rotary | motion. 1f scorched, it will feel stiff and crackle like paper; such fur will g0 to pleces and will not stand hard wear, The most valuable furs are pure { white, not eream. Black furs should ! be jet black and glossy. The dearest of brown furs are those showing a | bluish rather than a reddish tinge. | The bluish tinge is desirable also in | gray furs instead of a yellow tone. |The darkest beaver is the most ex- | pensive. Ermine should be pure white !with black tails. Among the 1éss costly furs are beaver, skunk, mink and marten; of ail the lambs' fur, Persian is the rich- cst and best; when buying it select skins that curl closely and regularly und have a bright silky sheen. Red . fox varles in color from a light yel- 1 low to a dark red, and is more durable | than either silver-blue or white, Hud- son eeal is only a muskrat dyed a seal color after the guard hairs have been clipped.

HHeat dries out the natural oils that keep the pelt soft and pliable. They should be put away as soon as possible. The garret is a poor place to store them. Before putting thém away, clean any spot or any tiny crumb of food that may have fallen inte the fur; shake well, hang in the sun and wind for seyeral hours, lay them on a flat sur- face and beat every inch with a flat stick; after they are beaten, shake and hang' up in the sun once more; then wrap them up in cotton or linen bags. If you have not a cedar chest, put them in'a cardboard box. and paste a strip of paper where the edges come on the box. They should be lgoked at once in five or six weeks, The nat- ural furs are more apt to be attacked by moths than dyed furs. Of all furs, otter is the best, and moleskin the worst; the one having one hundred poinis, the other but seven. All water animals' pelts have the best wearing qualities. Well up the list of durable fur is skun¥. The red fox wears well even in its natural state, or when dyed, and will give ex- cellent service: BLUE BABY.

Dear Social Corner Members: There are many funny stories both verbal and written® about gifts for the holi- days, that many times money wotld be more acceptable and friends could select their own presents, especially when living at a distance. It is_well to remember ones, shut-ins and those years. We hear so much about there being no old people at preseny that one wishes children, young folks and some older ones could be taught that the spirit body is young and only the physical form that becomes feeble, and they should not judge them simply by their outward appearance. They would be reminded and reali to some degree that the fleeting vea: would soon place them in the same condition, and thoughtful _remem- brances would be appreciated perhaps more than in youthtul days. A postcard message will go far at this season to cheer lonely hearts, A merry Yuletide and every good wish. BLANCHE. MAXIMS DO NOT ALWAYS FIT. Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: With pleasant reflections I have been living over again my first visit with the Sisters of Club No. 2, and have enjoyed the sentiments from observa- tion which came to my attention that day. Among old maxims and sayings of the long ago I sometimes hear one quoted which does not appeal to meas fair justice to humanity. A modern author has advanced the idea that “when you laugh, the world laughs with you, but when you weep, you weep alone” These words mar " P s o the little along in - |candle in the front window is be true in a small entage, but I selleve if each individual makeup was 2 there would be a surprjsing shrinkage, only-a few, who do not feel cong over anothers woes. | Again ‘we often hear “Sympathy is more frequently given on paper, When mere words do not count much, b actual, up antl doing is overlooked ‘This is not to denounce kind letters that often speak louder then the voico from a distant friend, but each has its true plice. % It has been ‘my privilege to be a member of different fraternitics or so- cietles awer since I was a young school girl, and I can truly say from per- sonal observations that a more friend- Iy and cordial set of people I have never been .aseociated with than the Social Corner Sisters. 1 am not com- petent to judge the secret or keynote, why they are bound with an impartial friendship ‘to ome another.

These revelations of real friendship from any comer mean much to us all and life is made happier every day for it Too often our thoughts concerning the attitude of another throush silence or some mistake have not heen favor- able.
