Authors of Proverbs "Can you tell mo the authors of the ac companying proverbs? Who said first To run with the hare and hunt with the hounds,' and 'He wants to have a finger in every man's pie'? How did the last saying originate? Who nowadays puts his finger In a pie? I am greatly Interested In this mntter of popular proverbs and I like to trace out the meaning and origin of each that I hear. MADELINE B " You do not quote either proverb quite correctly. John Heywood. an English writer, better known to the eighteenth century than to the twentieth, wrote "To hold with the hare and run with the hounds" In a volume of proverbs popular In his day Earlier writers quote It In effect one In 1672. In Shakespeare's "Henry VIII" Buck ingham says: "No man's pie Is freed from his ambitious finger." The meddler Is thus characterized by a score of writers, ancient and modern. You say truly that the subject u jjupuiur uiiages is curious nnd entertain ing. It Is a pleasure to "run one to earth." Concerning an Indiana School "About 25 years ago a publication Issued at Terre Haute, Ind devoted several pages ,to Coates College, with pictures and n general write-up of that Institution, which has been discontinued for 20 or more years.

It must be remembered that most of the queries In this column are answered ac cording to general rules of etiquette and In some cases to local customs ns well. For Instance, In this city It Is not considered good form for n woman to take a man's arm when walking with him. Some' 30 or 40 years ago It was tho proper thing to do. but now It In not done These cus toms change according to the time nnd the place; In Cuba, for Instance, It would be considered strange If a man did not offer his arm to a woman nfter dark, nnd n.fter n dance there it Is customary to take a man's arm when going back to one'B place. In many European cities It Is good form to walk In tho street arm In arm. It Is like the cutting In on dances, which Is done here so much nnd yet In New Orleans It Is not good form nt all. How to Eat Sandwiches1 Drnr Deborah Jtuth: Kindly tell me the proper way to eat nundwlchea, especially club nandwlchcs Also If It la proper to place tho fork In the riant hand nfter cuttlnic meat or other foods with tho fork In tho left hand as onu aeea ao many people do? R. U M I cannot give you a general answer about sandwiches. It depends very much on their size and the Ingredients. A club sandwich must, of course, be eaten with a fork, and If the toast Is too crisp to sep arate with a fork a knife may be used to cut it through. A club sandwich should nover be eaten with the Angers. The small sandwiches which are Berved with afternoon tea, should always be eaten .with the fin gers. Sandwiches which are n little larger, such as ono would order In a restaurant, should bo eaten with a fork. The fork Is held n the left hnnd when one Is cutting meat, and It Is permissible to eat the meat with the fork In the left hand, but It Is very seldom done, and It Is far better form to hold the fork In one's right hand when eating. Form of Answer Dtar Dtborah Rush. Will you kindly outline a reply of areptanco In an InWtntlon In, wnlrh "tho honor of jpur presence la requested at the rlosln exercls-m" nf a certain school. The Invitation Inclosed the card of one nf the stu dents whom 1 know and requested an ansuer. Should not tho emelone nf the reply be ad dressed to the head nf the. school, and how? What -re some nrnclrei pns-ons In the nee or writing paper ana caras tcorresponcience for men, as compared to those of women L. du C. If the Invitation mentions the head of the pchool or the faculty, the answer should be addressed to them ; If not, direct your en elope to the school, as. "Episcopal Acad emy." "Penn Charter School," The answer should read: Mr. L. du C. Accepts with pleasure . the kind Invitation to be present at the closing exercises of - . i. i i School On Thursday, May the thirty-first, at 10:30 o'clock. (Of course put in the proper date and hour.) a Of course, f the president of the school and faculty are mentioned, the line "Mr.- and (he fapulty's kind Invitation" should be written Instead of the word "the" In front of Invitation. There is no difference In the custom of letter writing for a man or -a woman. Cor respondence cards may be used for little potes of thanks or for messages, or when only a few words are to be said. Small note paper Is used for answering lnvlta tlona or for small notes and larger paper for more lengthy letters. A man seldom uses colored paper.

There wouldn't bo nn odor of cabbage nround her Utopia. It Is to do nwny with these and worso evils that philanthropic men and women of Philadelphia are Undertaking tho work of listing all the boarding hous:a In the city. Every single houso will bo classified, nnd at the mero mention of tho name tho Regis tration Bureau of Boarding Houses will bo nblo to tell you Just In whnt class tho houso In question belongs. Miss Mary Morris, of tho Welfare De partment of tho Curtis Publishing Com pany, together with Miss Mary Gillette, of the Travelers' AlaASoclcty, at.d Edwin Lane, Bishop Hhlnelander's secretary, nre doing some of tho work of classification. "Thcro is no system of Investigating boarding houses In Philadelphia unless tho neighbors Insist, nnd there In no lnw to prevent any ono from starting a boarding house," Miss Morris snld In explaining tho work. "It requires no license to be a boarding house keeper in Phllndelnhln. "In this way many of the disorderly houses that existed In certain districts be fore tho police started to close them up now exist In tho form of 'boarding houses.' No boarding house Is safo unless It 13 Investigated. A girl comes hero from out of town, or lives hero alone, nnd how can sho tell what sort of a placo she Is getting Into? Tho Travelers' Aid Society makes a list of approved places, but since boarding houses In this city may chango charaetcr over night, constant Investiga tion Is Imperative. "Why, Philadelphia has more boarding houses In proportion to tho population than New York has, I placo an average of f6 girls In houses In a month All employers should bo sufficiently Interested In their employes to know how and whoro they live. Thcro are boarding houses for girls from $1 a week up to $10 a week; surely every girl would bo willing to live In a place sho felt Buro of. The Registration Bureau keeps a list of the clean ones, tho sectarian ones, tho cheap ones nnd the moro cxcluslvo ones. There Is a house to suit every type of working girl. "With thl3 Information at hand It Is pos sible for tho bureau to do a tremendous work. Our plan Is very much like tho sys tem now In practice In New York. The list of aDproved boarding houses Is sent to every department store, factory and cor poration In Philadelphia, They pay so much a year for tho use of It. Then as long as we guarantee to keep each board ing house filled tho landlady pays a per centage of her profits. Naturally, It Is a mutual affair, for, a boarding house mis tress likes to feel that her tennnts are de sirable. Just as much as her' tenants deslro tho samr of her." Hetdlng girls together In two-by-four apartments, forbidding nny light laundry work, freezing them In the cold weather, forcing them to seek warmth and shelter In a nearby movie or cafe when their beau calls all these things are tho trials that send the girls nway from a boarding house In disgust. "Every girl has the home Instinct," de clares Miss Morris. "No matter how little they jet, they want privacy and they want a room to themselves. If It'a only a hall room, it'p theirs, and they want to havo It to themselves. The committee In charge. Including Bishop Ilhlnelander, Mrs. Louis Madeira, Mrs. Charles String, of the Board ing House Association ; Mrs. Martha Fal coner, of the Girls' Reformatory; Miss Pratt, of Alcott House ; Mrs. Samuel Fels and Father O'Donnell, of the Catholic Chil dren's Bureau, are enthusiastic over the plan.

A woman's soul was naturally stirred to Its depths by tho awful scene, nnd Instinctively Bho yearned to forestall a repetition of tho event. Then, ngatn, a stovepipe Is such -in ugly thing, even when well blacked ami hidden from view, ns much as possible, by Iho whatnot or the piano. Ana unaiiy, wio plumber, the gas-fitter, the hardware man, In fact nit Iho authorities lately found It convenient to assure the householder that no stovepipe was necessary with the now tangled gas stove, which, tnko It frffm tho rvtiinw with one to sell, "consumes nil the gases and docs not pollute tho nlr of the room." Housewives, save your stovepipe. It Is tho best kind of health Insurance, plumbers, gns-fltters and stove denlers to tho con trary notwithstanding, i Where there Is smoko there Is probably somo fire, Thnt Is a proverb. Where there Is flro thero Is certainly combustion. That Ib common sense, Where there Is combustion there Is some carbonic acid gas produced, bo the fuel coal oil, gas, wood or conl. That Is n scientific fact, and It can not be dispelled by a plumber's logic. Car bonic ncld gas (carbon dioxide) must be produced when carbon burns and It U tho carbon In conl, wood, oil or gas thnt burns to produce hent. Carbonic acid gas Is produced In the blood by tho combustion of food (fuel) nnd given off to tho Mr by tho lungs. Thus the effect of a. gas stove, oil stove or other burner In a room without a Stovepipe to carry off tho carbonic ncld gas Is precisely tho same as that of a crowd of peoplo In tho room the nlr Is polluted and Boon becomes poisonous. Carbonic ncld gas polBonlng Is very Blow and Insidious It tnkes a whole season to got In Its work But tho effects nre, never theless, manifest: Thnt tired feeling, spring fever, dull headaches, poor nppetlte, anemia, sallow complexion, lack of ambi tion, poor circulation, nervousness, Irrltn blllty, cantankerous disposition (husbands, have a heart!) and a strong conviction of tho "need of a good tonic." Tho tonic needed Is tho open nlr, whero tho victim escapes tho carbonic ncld gas poisoning. Do not confusa carbonic acid gas (car bon dioxide) with conl gas (carbon monox ide). Tho latter Is a deadly poison, a quick one, too. It It believed when combustion Is Incomplete, when tho drafts aro poor. It causes that blue flame you seo over a coal fire or gas fire.

" '" The Daily Menu When tho spring- and summer months come, tho Bystem requires a change of dial just ns tho body requires a change of ri mont. Lighter foods nre needed to rellsv. tho Btraln on tho digestive organs luii .! much ns lighter clothes are worn to r llevo tho heat of the body. This brings the housekeeper to tho question of proper food vatucB. Meat Ib nutritious when properly and ' wholesomely cooked, but not any more so than cheese, fresh salads, vegetables, fruits etc. Thero are plenty of palatable dlshea that could displace meat at the luncheon table, with very good results. Eggs, cooked InVnll forms, aro beneficial. Then, too, the modes of life of the various occupants of tho house, should receive at. tontlon. The well balanced menu for the worklngmnn IncludeB solid, cnergy-bulldlnr foods, such ns steaks nnd ronsts, and such "heavy" dishes. It Is obviously foolish to give a meal such as this to peoplo of seden tary lives, or old people, or children. Once In a while, but not ns a regular diet. Light fricassees, stews, meat pics, patties, cutlets and green vegetables and fruits aro better'' at this tlmo of rtho year. Heat-making foods aro all very well In zero weather, but the wlso housekeeper shuns them on warmer dnys. A Fruit Dessert Cut a grapefruit In half and remove the tough fibre and part of tho pulp.

But the latest way to adapt dellcnte colored china painting to modern use Is the china desk set. This Idea Is quite In line with the various sanitary appointments, for everything nowadays, besides heing beauti ful and useful, must be sanitary. Blotter holders, pad corners, pen tray, calendar, and inkwell are mado of the finest glazed china, decorated to suit tho artist's fancy. A monogram done In black and burnished gold on a bluo background made one effective set seen recently. Any way, china's the newest thing for desk-ware. Mildew Stains Mildew on garments la easily removed. Wet the artjcle with soft water, rubbing It well with white soap, then with powdered chalk. Place It on the graBS in the sun shine and be sure to keep (t damp with soft water, repeating the process the next day. The mildew will not be noticeable after this. Egg Salad Cover the eggs with boiling water and reduce tho hat at once, cooking the eggs solwly from 2C to 28 minutes over the sim mer burner of tho gas stove. When the eggs nre done, cover them with cold water. Pre pare mayonnaise, when thick, add four or five sardines that have been shinned, boned and pounded to a paste.
