Advance Suggestions for the February Hostess Valentine's day is the special holiday of the youth, and nowadays even small | {children feel that a February 14th with- out a party is as incomplete as Thanks- glving without & turkey, or Christmas without a tree. A very enjoyable affair can be given at small expense, and with very little preparation. All that is necessary to the success of a party is originality. Given this, the omission of expensive decorations and elaborate souvenirs will |not be noted, while a novel touch wiil lend to ‘the simplest menu a distinction | Which will make the supper unforget- | able. The small hostess who glves an after- noop party may send some such invita- tion as: Saint Valentine has given me A message just for you: 8o, Monday, if you'll come for it, I'll tell you what I'll do— Tl let you have vour valentine, And have some supper, too. February the fourteenth. From 1 to 6:, Margery Evans, 1420 Kensington Street. It the invitations are written on plain white note-paper, affix here and there a tiny, red, heart-shaped ‘sticker;” these can be purehased, 10 in & box, in any store that handles stationery and office supplies. 4 Before the guests arrive, place the plano across a corner, and have a child s fishing rod and tackle in readiness—a stick, cord and bent pin will suffice; then, as soon as all of the children are assembled, have them take turns casting the line into the pond back of the piano. As each child triés his luck, an older person strikes & chord on the keys—in the bass clef for the boys and the treble for the girla—this is to “call the fish,” the children are told; but it is really a ignal for the person bidden behind the plano, that he may know whether a boy or & girl has the line. Whenever the hook descends, this person puts it through a bit of folded paper, gives the line a jerk, and the fish is drawn forth, When each has had his turn, the fisher- men are asked to open thelr “catch” and to do whatever the fishes tell them. Bach bit of paper instructs its possessor to look in & certaln place; going there he finds & slip which sends hini to an- other part of the house, and so on, until he finally runs down his quarry. For example, the fish may say, “Go to the library and look between pages 9 and 97 of volume 8 of the Encyclopedia Britan- There the child may find a slip “Look under the card tray on nioa." reading, the hall tabk There he may be com- manded to “Turn back the parior rug at the cormer nearest the fireplace;” and under the corner may be another com- mand, or the prize rewarding his search. The most entertaining prizes are the comic, paper valentines, costing 1 cent each. Select those which are humorous without being unkind or extreme. Teen- age boys and girls will enjoy this fishing party quite as much as do their small brothers and sisters, An easily prepared and very effective decoration for the table consists of a large heart-shaped centerpiece of broken evergreen twigs, Outline this with medium-sized candles, one for each guest; run red ribbons from the candles to the places arranged around the table; attach red papér hearts to the ribbon ends, and write on each heart the name of a guest; these are the place cards It there Is a chandelier over the table, a “shower decoration” will be a novelty, Cut narrow red ribbon into various lengths, and fasten these to different parts of the chandelier; then pasie a candy “motto” heart on each of the ends hanging down. Turn out the lights in the room just before the children are summoned; the effect will be wonder- tully ‘pretty. The following menu is wholesome, and tarries out the red color-schemes: Cold sliced ham Frencn-fried potatoes Pimento-cheese sandwiches Currant-jelly sandwich Beet pickles and olive Cherry jelly ® Cake Hot chocolate Assorted candies In making the sandwiches, siice the bread very thin, and as each is made, cut it into the shape of a heart, with a fancy cooky-cutter. (If, you are unable o buy such a cutter, take an empty can —A large baking-powder can will do—and with & pair of pinchers bend it into the desired shape for one inch from the edge.) Cut the beet pickles into the same form, using a smaller cutter, In making the pink gelatin dessert, use heart-shaped molds if possible; placing a mound of whipped cream on top of it, surmounted with & cherry. This jelly is just as at- tractive as the ice cream, which the chil- dren always expect, The cakes should be small individual ones. Cover them thick on all sides with a white frosting, and decorate with tiny, red, heart-shaped clanamon drops. If only round cinnamon drops can be obtained, arrange them on the cakes In the form of a heart. When supper is over it will be time for small guests to go home. If the party is an evening affair for the older boys and girls, the final hour may be very .en- joyably spent singing songs with which all are famillar.—Florence in Mother's Magasine y
