Many people—perhaps most people —~still are unaware of the dangers to which they expose themselves when they fail to ventilate their houses properly. They are sadly ignorant of the effects of impure air on the hu- man organism, For one thing the breathing of im- pure air prevents the brain from ob- taining the supply of oxygen indispen- sable to its proper functioming. Oxy- gon in sufficient quantities to keep the brain working effectively can be had only through giving the lungs a chance to abeorb fresh air. Deprive them of this chance and you not only starve the brain, you also polson it. For air that is not fresh is air which always contains sub- stances toxic to the brain.

Dear Social Cornerites: It is a long time since my last letter, but I have not been unmindful of you all. Like Louisa May Olcott, author of Little ‘Women, who used to simmer stories while preparing food for her invalid mother, I have had a little sizzling | while shoveling snow, coal and ashes, | and attending the many other duties of the home through this awful weath- er. W. J. Colville used to say it did not matter how the hands were .em- ployed, so long as the thoughts were in the right direction, that heaven was just as near the work shop as the cathedral. But I don’t think such hard labor is conducive to a very high order of inspiration. I was much interested in New York Girl's talk at the last dinner at the. Buckingham, about the tare of our girls. But why not have a little in- terest in and for our boys? It's an old time idea to care for the girls and let the boys think for themselves. I be- lieve this is all wrong. I think we should make the home pleasant and attractive to the boys.' Allow them (o invite their friends to the home in the FLIGHT ! symptoms of fhis brain poisoning.

JLET CONSERVING TABLE LINEN. Sisters of the Social Corner: All of | vou housekeepers can sympathizé with me in my determination to conserve my better table linen, and you will no doubt be interested in some of the pretty and appropriate substitutes T Fave been able to devise, though the ideas have not all been original. Table squares with plate and glass doilies are as practical for the dinner as well as the luncheon table and un- bleached muslin _and heavy white plain damask make excellent sets that wear well and look pretty with the cross stitching or crocheted borders. Tan art crash lends itself well to stenciling and heavy linen lace may be coffec-dipped to trim the edges of centerpiece and doilies if one is tired o the fringe. White wash satin has been used for a special occasion, the circles lined with thin flannel, then linen and lace trimmed. But these sets are hardly practical for ordinary dinner use. Japanese linens are advisable be- cause of their durability and excellent laundering qualites. By such substitutes Zood table linen ean be made to do duty for a much longer period and not require replen- ishing in prohibitive times. SUSAN. HIGHLY PRIZED LACES “By the way, mother!” and the at- tractive daughter who has been swinging lazily to and fro in the ham- mock for a half hour or so, gazing rather thoughtfully into space, turns towards her mother, who is seated near, embroidering industriously on what would seem to be onec of the many articles belonging to an elabor- ate trousseau. “Well, my daughter, what is it? smiles the indulgent parent. “Why, I was thinking of the laces you have and wondering just how | much you are going to give me, and 0% how I can use them.” “I have been expecting that from you for some time, my dear, and have | decided, to give you and your sister an equsl share. Will that suit you?” And 1 ihe mother’s eyes rested lovingly on irl. With a shake of the head, the girl say» quickly: “No, indeed. You must huve enough of each kind for the neck and sleeves of the soft gray gorwsn, as the stories have it, when you are old and fine and of course beautiful.” Th> mother rewards this mild ban- dinage with an approving nod and a “Possibly you are right. We will see what your sister thinks.” “You have never shown me the lace. Am I to have the pnoint d’Alencon on my wedding gown?’ asks the girl as skie. Tooks up eagerly and inquiringly. “I will let you decide for yourself, daughter.” “I wonder how and where that lace is made?” goes on this by no means brainless girl. “It is made entirely by hand, with a small needle, in short pleces, which | are afterward united by invisible seams, and is made chiefly in Baveux, or was before the world war. What | effect that has had on the makine of | lace I don't know,” and the mother | sigke p, little wearily. “I subpose the war has stopped the making of much of it. espectally in the towns of France and Belgium. It must have deprived many women of lucra- tive employment,” said the girl, look- ing_sympathetic. “Speaking of Belgium, mother. What about the Brussels lace? What do you think of the suitability of that as a trimming for a white costume?” “Just as vou think best, my dear” the answer, and the mother sits for o ke il a few minutes with her work on her lap, looking abstractly to the hills as her thoughts turn back to the time of her own wedding journey and how she with her young husband at her side had wandered through Belgium, picking up a bit of lace, almost price- lees, in some little musty smelling store, or a piece of bric-a-brac where no cne would expect to find anything of value. Happy, happy time! Proud, prosperous, peaceful Belgium. But now! And she looks up through tear-dimmed eyes as her daughter ex- clarms: “And the Mechlin, mother. Oh, joy!” flushing with pride at the thought of th matronly honors and the impor- | tance she is so soon to attain. “That lace is or was made at Mechlin, Antwerp, and one or two other cities abroad, wasn't it?” asks the girl to cover her confusion as she secs her mother looking rather roguishly. “Yes, and it is fine trans- parent, web-like. That must be used on my very best clothes.” “Chantilly is very wonderful, I know,” continues the girl. “Yes,” replied her mother. “Not every gir! ias so much. That lace is now made at Bayeux and Caen. “The Lille lace is simple in design but is fine and beautiful and is made in the town of Lille, France, and I have the lace I bought In Bailleul; that is strong and _cheap; also the Valen- ciennes. You will find all these useful in many ways.” R ‘ndoubtedly, mother,” affirms the girl, “The Valenciennes is made in Flan- ders, Ypres, Bruges and Ghent in large quantities. R _“Especially for us poor lttle rich girls.” laughs the carefree girl. “The Honiton lace is the most w dely known of the English' Iades and is made in Buckingham, Devon and Teiford counties. The Limerick lace is made in Limerick, Ireland, in Scot- |1and and in nearly every country of Furope. These laces and my em- broidery. will make very attractive luncheon and tea sets, and the mother settles back in her chair with a deprecating smile*as her daughter, getiine out of the hammock, very: carefully adjusting her coiffure, eross- es to her mother's side. 1 mix thoroughly.

Dear Members of the Corner: Dur- ing these Lsing days, when so many are shut In by storms and snow and ice, it is to be feared that the rule; of daily exercise is being forgotten . | True, for those living on a farm, there seems to be plenty of exertion to go around just in trying to keepl shoveled, out, to see to it that the| i | and poultry and stock cared for. But, for the women of the household, with nothing more of variety than puttering about a few rooms, getting the meals aid clearing up after them, deprived of most of the ordinary out- door life and exercise, kept away from neighborhood social affairs, un- able to get into town to buy the most necessary _articles, there is bound to be a disastrous period of | sluggish livers, when, finally winter has melted into spring. Now is the time when more than ever the wise woman will keep up her struggle to continue well and active. The household tasks are soon done up, there is nothing but sewing or mending, or reading, since the snow seems to have put an embargo on al- most everything. Depressing, isn't it? The only hope. ful thing for the woman or women thus shut away from their _little world, while the menfolks are busied out of doors, is to ward off depres- | sion by toning up the body through | soma extra exercise. Really, it would | be wiser to go outstds and join the | men of the farm, fussing about the barn or hay-loft or woodpile, seeing that the poultry is comfortable, may- be making a dash at clearing out paths, than to remain indoors day af- ter day. Just a walle across a near- | by field, battling with the icy crust| of the snow, would set the blood to | circulating, 'while the winter air | would bring roses to cheeks now ! growing pale from so much confine- ment. In the modern system of co plete exercise, even the eyes get dis- cipline, each muscle in the entire body has to work, so gaining strength | and health. : Dear, sisters, don’t settle down and abuse the weather! Keep | body and mind active—it's the one! sure way to retain health and goo Tooks! HYGIENIC. ANNIVERSARY GREETINGS.
