Now, have tho hostess or somo one stand In the centre of the two rows and blow a feather Into the nir. A line should bo drawn up tho centre of tho space betwoen the sides chalk or a pleco of string may be used. The object of the game Is to keep tho foathor from blowing over on one's sldo of the lino. It must not be touched with tho hand. It can only tie blown. If tho feather falls on the other side of the lino a point Is scored. If It falls within tho line, the opponents score. Thirteen points make game. Toy balloons may bo used, too. "Scandal" Is another lively game. Let a player go out of the room. The others then make remarks about htm. These are taken down by tho ofllclal scandal-monger. When the player returns, these remarks are read out, and the unfortunate victim tries to guess who said each one. Bullet and bracelet Is good also. Sus pend a bracelet from the chandelier by a string. Give your players small bullets of tinfoil, such as come around chocolates. Each player must then throw the bullet through tho bracelet Five points are al lowed tho person who succeeds. Forty rive points make game. BRADY, M.

Fruit Salad A variation of the fruit and nut salad is the pineapple, nut and celery salad, served on crisp lettuce and garnished in dainty fashion. Use Bllces Df canned pineapple and a cupful of chopped celery. Stand these In a cool place until they are thoroughly chilled, having previously sprinkled them with lemon Juice. Add one-fourth of a cupful of blanched and chopped almonds, or pistachio nuts. English walnuts, as you see tit, to a cupful or mayonnaise dress ing. Use, enough dressing to sufficiently cover the celery and pineapple. Serve on let tuce leaves and garnish with green or red maraschino cherries, or pimento strips. Salt a Beautiiier Salt acts as an astringent to the skin. The woman who understands Its proper uses is never without a simple and de cidedly efficacious first aid to beauty. Never use Bait on a dirty skin, for this will close the pores, and with It all the dust and grime accumulated during the day, Sa)t water should be used as an as tringent, only after the regular cleansing process has been completed. The best method of procedure Is to take a piece of soft cloth or a wash cloth wrung out of water as hot as you can stand and use It to remove the cream and Incident ally the dust from the face. Close the pores with cold water, to which you have added a generous pinch of salt. Her Epitaph The handful here, that once was Mary's earth. Held, while it breathed, so beautiful a soul. That, when she died, all recognized her birth. And had their sorrow In serene control Know that her spirit to her body lent Such sweetness, grace, only goodness can? That even, her dust, and this her monu ment. Have yet a spell to stay one lonely man. Lonely through life, but looking for the day When what is mortal of himself shall sleep, When human passion shall have passed away.

Beautifying the City Back Ynrd Ab tho back yard In tho city always and In tho suburban place sometimes Is tho home ynrd, It should bo in ado a thing of beauty. In tho country tho modern Idea Is to use ns much ground as possible for a lawn to glvo an nspect of spaciousness. But even If thero Is a "front ynrd," as well ns n "back yard," thore Is no reason why a llttlo care and a trifling sum Bhould not bo expended In making tho latter bloom, reserving flno specimen plants and trees for tho front, nnd having beds and bor ders of constant bloomers for tho former. The gnrdon for flowers for cutting for table and other dccoratlvo uses will fit In nicely In the! buck. If you havo only dn ordinary city back yard yo'u can stilt havo n succession ot boautlful blooms. It Is not necessary to close In the back yard with a board fence or a tnll hedge to shut out unslghtllness from tho neighbors. If nil the residents In a row tako proper prldo In their back yards and vie with each other In arrange ment and variety thero will bo a lloral car nival. Somo first principles must be considered. First of all, do not cut up tho yard with too many beds or plots. If your separa tion from your next-door neighbor Is by means of the low Iron rail, you wilt havo a good exposure and can place your beds in almost nny location. But remember the fundamental fact, that tho best back ground for a flower garden Is that selected by Nature for Its wild flowers namoly, grass. Another thing to guard against in lay ing out Is following of conventional lines. If thero Is a groat deal of space, cuto llttlo plots In rectangular form will be effective, but only as part of a general and more elabornto design. If, unfortunntcly, thero IS a board fence closing in tho yard on threo sides, this can bo redeemed to meas urable sightliness by vines. In this case tho main flower border will havo to be against tho fenco having tho eastern ex posure. Do not have tho lnaln border cut oft from tho grass with a straight line, and do not hem It In with n narrow boarding. The border will be far moro attractive If It sweeps In nnd out In curves or swells out In one eurvp, at least. It can be planted to beticr advantage also. - A long narrow border can bo placed alqng tho walk. This will give .the only necessary formal tnijch, nnd tho curve of tho big border will relieve nny sense of angularity, particularly If it is, as tho present discussion assumes, on tho far side of the largo grass plot found In moBt city yards. Regularity is all right, but angularity Is nil wrong. Do not have a central urn or vase, and do not have a central bed. Do not havo too many varieties In a Bmall area, and avoid a clash of colors. This gives a general Idea of planning out the city "back-yard beautiful." Later will be given Instruction ns to preparing tho soil, planting harmoniously and se lecting flowers for bloom, color and email expense. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS New Sunflowers Friend John Tlrtrnm Please glve the name of some tall crowlni plant, with Sonera if possible, that will ahow conspicuously as a screen against a board fence about 100 feet Irpm the house. ALBERT. You do not say whether you wish annual perennial plants. If jou wish a changs each iear you cunnot do amthlns better for bril liant results than try some of the marvelously colorful new sunflowera, These are a hybrid of the old-fashioned sunflower and a wild variety found In Colorado. The red lullput grows about six feet, the red and gold runs aa high as nine feet. The plants are well branched und have a fairly heavy foliage. They bear numerous Sower of gorgeous blends of red. yellow and orange. Cut the flowers frequently. If you wish to have a permanent screen plant some of the rudbecklas or goldenglows. These hava an attractive foliage and plentiful bloom from the end of July till frost, when most others are past the bearing season. They are good for cutting, too. Hollyhocks would be anotner suggestion. It la best to plant these each year, though by cutting down the plant after the blooming period and enriching the ground constantly they will come up each year. ' Sowing Fine Seeds Friend John Bartram How shall I prevent a veritable jungle of seedlings springing up when I plant some of the minute seeds? v i. In planting fine aeeds such aa those of the poppy and petunia. It Is the beat plan to mix a pinch ot the seeds with half a teaspoonful 'of sand and shake the mltture well. It can then be distributed gently In the row or drill and lightly covered with a pinch of nne soil, More Foliage on Rose Bushes Friend John Bartram I get some nice blooms on my roae bushes, but the foliage It by no means full and pretty. What Is the cause and the remedy? CAROLINE: TESTOUT. The cause and the remedy are pretty closely allied and If you remove the former you will secure the latter. Vou do not give any par ticulars aa to the location of your rosebed, but It Is obvious that your bushes are hem med In on two or three sides by walls, fences or hedges. Itose bushes should have abundant light and good circulation of air throughout the entire day. Protection by a hedge, fence or house Wall on one side, particularly the west or north. Is desirable, but beyond this jou will lose In ventilation when It Is needed more than you gain In protection from winter killing.

Seeding Lawn Friend John Bartram Tell 'me an approxi mate date to reseed portlonavOf my lawn. . Also Is It too early to put fertilizer on It andnwhat should tuse?' - i , . Q. 1C. I.,. - If you are merely desirous of covering hare catcher on n lawrv already rnailo, lt,nlll be ull right to scatter seed almost any time now. Urass seed Is hardy and the April. vhowera will promoto germination nnd. afford moisture needed for early growth. It's against the rule to recommend brands, but consult our adver tising columns for names of reliable dealers. They all have mixtures suitable for specified soils, situations and purposes. Warning: Do not buy u too cheap brand! If you aro mak ing an entirely new lawn It will be wise to wait till all the frost Is out of the ground and a few bright days have dried tho Roll so It can be worked well. It should be spaded and raked fine, with a liberal sprinkling of bone meal, ground sheep manure or very fine stable manure Incorporated thoroughly. Sow the seed with a generous hand and as uni form as possible, then roll, which serves the double purpose of smoothing the surface and pressing tho seed Into close contact with the soil. Insuring successful germination. Of course, the lawn must have been graded, aa preparation for this work. It is a good time right now to sprinkle finely pulverized stable manure, or ground bone, qloou or sheep manure on the lawn. There will be no danger of burning the grass so early. The nutrients In these fertilizers will seep fnlo the aoll.Wlth the spring rains, and In soluble form provide generously for the root systems below ground. Novel Desk Set If your bedroom is cretonne-hung, a desk set to harmonize Is a pretty conceit, The articles should be neatly made and the cretonne of pleasing design. For the pad, cut out a square of cardboard the size of your desk, or the size you want it. The back of this must be carefully covered with the cretonne, pasted on, and the cor ners turned over on the other side of the cardboard. Small dabs of the paste ought to be BUfllcient. Now put a place of blotting paper In any color that looks well with the cretonne on the reverse side of the pad. Paste down the corners and place under weights. Cut triangular pieces of cardboard the size ot the corners of the pad, cover them with cretonne and paste them on. A small blotter Is a simple thing to make. Cover a piece ot cardboard tha Blze of your little blotters with cretonne, paste on the blotters and tie together.
