JUlght at least haVo'Xdld mo omelliInjt
Jeasunt tot that.
Th6 woman grimaced petulantly nrtd
there fth n worried look oh her brow.
It vVns plain 10 sco that she believed In
the truth of her words. Ilep whole sum-
'vner was to be spoiled. And nil bcrituso
A she belonged to thnt class of Women, thah
whont there is none "more foolish, which
persists In frolnp to fortune tellers.
Of course they do not call themselves
fortune tellers this parasitic breed which
draws Us life from the credulity of an
igilbrantt superstitious public They hide
under the protecting cloak of religion or
science. They hro spiritualists or psychic
mediums, and as such drain the pockets
of their patrons with nn unscrupulous
Bess that la nothing short of amazing-.
Suspicions havo been planted In the
'minds' of the visitors to these shrines of
Iniquity which, like bad sores, have fes
tered until an entire household has been
Infected. I remember on one occasion
When t vas present nt a seance In the
capacity of Investigator tho loose lipped,
evIMooklng medium pointed n grimy rin
ger at a.mlsorabte specimen of humanity
nnd In portentous tones said ominously
three times:
"Wntch your husband, watch your hus
band, watch your husband!"
The woman whom she addressed wore
a weddlnj ring, so there was nothing
psychic even in the guess that the warned
one was married. The poor creature, who
was obviously In exceedingly low circum
stances, looked plteously at the medium.
One more burden had been added to hor
''back. In addition to other trying- sor
rows, she now had to watch her husband,
and tho Inference was that tho result of
those observations were to be far from
pleasant.
It woiiM be lmninrnl enough If the for
t'mo tellers confined themselves to op
timism, like the gipsies. If they only
told you about the innumerable dark
jouns myn and fascinating blonde who
were eating out their hearts for you. It's
a singular fact that for the gipsies there
Is no compromise, so far ns complexions
in a concerned. People are very, Very
dark or Very, Very light. ' True, the dark
ones are bften purple villains and advcn
turers, but they're such devilishly wloke'd
monsters, creatures so palpably of the
"mellerdrammcr," that one loses ono's
sense of terror In tho feeling of thrill they
Inspire.
The Influence of the higher-priced
readers of the future is dangerously per
nicious, however. Chiefly, perhaps, be
cause consulting them becomes a habit,
hllc sitting In the anteroom of one of
these mediums (Mio charged from $2 to
$5 a visit and many of her consultations
were by appointment) I talked to a young
girl who, llko the patient of a very emi
nent doctor, was waiting her turn.
"I've been coming hero for thrco years
now, off nnd on," sho told me, "and
though sho ain't never told mo nnything
very particular, I always keep thinking
tnajbe she will tell me something worth
while. It cost n sight of money, too, but
I can't seem to break away."
Apparently the thought never occurs
to the devotees of tho pij chics that peo
ple gifted with tho genius to penetrate
tho veil which hide tho future ought to
be able to do something for themselves In
tho way of storing up this world's goods.
Why Is It thnt they who arc capable of
advising you ns to which way tho stock
market Is going, or what man you ought
to marry in order to reach the seventh
heaven of rapture, never seem to have
profited by this knowledge themselves?
Proverbially, they are a dour, dovvn-nt-the-heel
looking lot.
And Just Btippose that they wero gifted
with the supernatural endowments that
they lay claim to, of what would It profit
a person to know bcfoichnnd the fate In
storu for him? All the Joys of tho pres
ent would b" tainted because of the knowl
clgo of their Impermanenco and that most
healthy of all hum in emotions, hope,
would be destroyed
Uut, of course, these practicing me
diums know nothing of tho future, Just
as they know nothing of the past or
present They are too Ignorant to know
much nf anything. But their Ignorance
Is exceeded by thnt of one other class In
this world. It Is tho Ignornnco of those
people who support them. M'l.ISS.

Nice for Shut-In Child
iAJV a while ago a request for cut
out paper dolls. My daughter would
like to have the addres of the person, as
he could send a little girl some. She has
a good many, and they are nice for a shut
in child, Should you know of any one who
would enjoy picture postals once In a while,
kindly let me have the address. I have
a girl of 14 and a boy of 12 years who
would enjoy spending a few pennies In
making some othur little one happy. Kindly
end me an address
"GnimtUDB c. it."
Olve Ufl the Initials attached to the
mother's letter, and ou will be put Into
communication with her. You will prob
ably hear soon from somebody who will
embrace the offer of your dear girl and
boy to have pictures copied. You are
brtnglns them up In the right way by
infusing Into their tender minds the de
sire to make others happy. This is the
best method of training true Corner
ites. Success attend the noble endeavor.
To Adorn Charitable Home
"Would any ont have to spare a large
picture of George Washington and one of
Abraham Lincoln, the greatest Presidents?
They are to bo found at political Itepub
lican headquarters of every ward. We
wish to adorn with them the walls of a
charitable Institution which Is essentially
American. JOSRPH D."
The request Is from a clergyman con
nected with the Institution for which the
portraits are wanted, It should not fall
upon heedless ears. The large pictures are
to be found .In private houses as well as in
political headquarters. One may easily bj
spared from the walls to give pleasure tc
the Inmates of the retreat and exert In
fluence upon a wider circle.
In Need of a Rug
"f "am the mother of Ave children and
my hutband has been out of work. Has
any one a pair of roller skates she Is not
using? My little girl would like to havo
come and I can't afford to buy them. I
have been sick. And It you can And a
carpet or rug for me I shall be thankful,
"MIIS. W. B"
Motherlike, out correspondent asks for
the roller skates which may bring Joy and
health to her girl before mentlolng modest
ly her need of a rug We must gratify
both desires If we can. Five children,
scanty means, and a hard, bare floor for
the aching feet of the woman of all work
are features of a pitiful story Would that
-it were the only one of tho kind vve are
'called upon dally to contemplate! We may
lighten the shadows in this by looking up
rug and roller skates.

How to Can Vegetables
A correspondent, Mrs W. L. G.. nsks for
directions for canning vegetables nnd you
Invite contributions from those who have
been successful In doing this. I venture
to send recipes which have worked ndmlr
ably In my household In canning corn cut
Just tho ends of kernels and scrape down
the rest. Pack the corn tightly Into Jars,
using a small packer Corn should be
pressed down until the milk covers the
top of the can. It should be cut as soon
aB it is picked Put strips of cloth around
the cans, lay rubbers and covers on Jars.
Put Jars In a boiler with a false bottom of
boards and cleats to prevent breaking. Fill
the boiler with water nearly to the rubbers.
Put cover on, boll two and a half hours,
then tighten covers and boll a half hour
longer. Let all cool In boiler.
Put them Into Jars and nil with cold
water. I had a pint of maple syrup, all I
may be treated the same. Don't let them
boll too fast and don't let them boll over
the covers. Keep the same amount of
water in the boiler. Much of the success
In canning Is due to sterilization The can
and cover should lie In boiling hot water 15
minutes. Do. not touch the Inside of the
cover with the hands. Dip rubbers Into hot
water. I had a pint of manle sirup, all I
could get for the rresent. I took six cups
of granulated sugar, made n syrup, and nut
the maple Into It. It Is fine. I haw don
this for years and never fall to convert all
who taste It. They always bay. 'This Is the
finest syrup I've ever tasted.' Try it.
"M. C.G."
A valuable addition to our store of prac
tical recipes that requires no puffing from
official quarters. It speaks for Itself and
for the clearheaded, kind hearted member
who responds generously to the call for
tried and true formulas. The Corner is the
richer and happier for It.
Pin Preserver
It often happens that the pin tray on the
side of the sewing machine tips over, and
the seamstress lias the delay and trouble of
scampering about for pins, or picking them
off the floor every tfine she wants one. This
trial of sewing days Is easily done away
with. Take a piece of soft woolen material
say about 1 inches wide and t Inches Iti
length, and wrap It around the machine at
ha wheel side. This brings your material
across the end of the wooden part of the
machine. When the dressmaker needs Dins
Bhe can take them from the side of the
cloth that la filled with them. When she is
taking them out of a gown, he can have
them slipped back Into their place on the
wool,n goods, thereby keeping the pn
where shecan find them In any emergency
Mending Linoleum
Did yon ever try mending the torn place
In linoleum? It's easy Just trim the edges
of the hole with the scissors kitchen scls
torn then place a linoleum patch under
neath, or If you have pone of this, use
oilcloth. Paint the edges op the wrong
side. Press down tight against the patch
and allow It to dry. Paint all worn places
using paint the same cclor as the oilcloth.

PRACTICAL SUMMER MODEL
PONGEE Is used for this attrnctlvo garment which may servo n double purpose. On
cool days worn with a blouse it makes n very practical suit, while for warmer
weather it will serve admirably ns n dress. Tho Callot collar Is piped with taffeta,
which Is also used to trim the cuffs nnd patch pockets Largo pearl buttons and a sash
of self-material add finishing touches. The suit, which is of nntutal pongee, has different
colored taffeta trimmings. It Is n special at 10.75.
The sports hnt Is of Mexican braid In modified sombrero stylo. The high crown Is
covered with green faille and finished with a tnsscl to match. Green fnlllo Is also used
for the facing, which Is finished with a cotded edge. The brim Is hand-pnlntcd. It
may be ordered In vnrlous colors for 1 10,
The name of the shon where these articles may bo purchased will bo supplied by
the Editor of the Woman's Page, Evening Ledoeo, 60S Chestnut street. Tho request
must be accompanied by n stamped, self-addressed envelope, nnd must mention the dato
on which the article appeared.
Daintiness
Daintiness has ever been the most allur
ing of feminine nttrlbutes. but attaining It
Is no smnll trouble To be truly dainty n
woman must spend time and money at
tending to the little items of her toilette
that give her the right to the adjective. To
achieve daintiness while traveling Is an
art.
Several bottles should be Included In the
traveling bag or case. One should con
tain alcohol to cleanse the skin with Pure
alcohol may or may not agree with n
tender skin, so that If it is diluted with
half rain water nnd half alcohol no possible
Irritation can result This liquid, when
dabbed gently over the skin with pads of
nbsorbent cotton while traveling, will re
movo tho dust nnd prevent It from getting
imbedded in the skin.
Benzoin Is nnother necessary of tho
traveler's kit. This also Is to be patted
Into the skin, nnd may be poured, a few
drops at a time, into tho wash basin of
the train dressing-room to soften the water.
Tho odor of tincture bezoln Is delightfully
nromattc, and a dash of toilet water after
ward makes the skin as fresh as a rose.
Good cold cream, of course. Is not over
looked In the list, only It Is taken so much
for grnnted tha't the other articles men
tioned above are to be looked on as Its
successors. The cream should be rubbed
Into the skin when Milady stars out on her
Journey, after the pores of the skin have
been cleansed and opened Then follows
the henzoln and -ollet water treatment.
The last requisite Is a bottlo of pungent
smelling salts for probable train sickness
Every one knows the nauseating sensation
nfter an hour or two on the train. If smell
ing salts are at hand, the knowledge of
their presence Is reassuring.
Night of Spring
Slow, horses, slow,
As thro' the wood we go
We would see fair Dlan rise
With her huntress bow.
Slow, horses, slow,
As thro' the wood vve go
All the beauty of the night
We would learn and know!
Thomas Westwood.
Berry and Lettuce Salad
A pretty salad 13 made with strawberries
and lettuce. Clean nnd hull tho berries,
then put them on tho Ico until they nre
quite chilled. Take the heart out of n crisp
head of lettuce, washing the outer leaves
well and chilling thoroughly by setting them
directly on the Ice In a paper bag until they
nre lendy to be used. Fill In tho centro
of the lettuce with the berries, cover with
powdered sugar or a sweet mayonnaise.
Mending China
sA cement to mend china In nn emer
gency Is made of a little bit of gum arable
dissolved In water and enough plnsttr of
Paris to make a stiff paste Wash and dry
the pieces nnd put them together with the
paste In between.

To return once more to our tnllts on wed
dings nnd receptions nnd other entertain
ments In connection with these events. It
Is usual for the bride to cntcrtnln her
bridesmaids nt luncheon about a week In
advance of tho wedding. Sometimes ths
function Is chnnged to a dinner nnd the
men of tho bridal party nttend, but the
luncheon Is more usual. Very often a cake
Is served with tho Ices, In which n ring,
a coin nnd a thlmblo nro placed. Tho
members of the party who find theso articles
In their portions are supposed to bo destined
for marriage, wealth or Blngle blessedness
ns tho case may be. Many other Innocent
old superstitions nre carried out for the
general delectation of the bridesmaids Very
often at tno uruiesmaiu s luncncuu mu
bride takes tho opportunity to give her
souvenirs to her bridesmaids, though If tho
luncheon Is given a whole week before tho
wedding It Is bettor to wait until tho eve
of tho day.
Remain Seated
Drnr Deooran Kiun Is it correct for a. lady
to rise. when Introduced to a man or when a
man comes into a room and greets her 7
A lady remains seated when n man Is In
troduced to her or entors a room to greet
her; but, of course, there are exceptions
to this rule as, for Instance, when a man
of cmlnenco or a venerable man Is Intro
duccd to a joung girl, sho should rise In
order to show him proper respect for his
age and station.
Bare Tabic for Lunch
IJrnr Deborah Rush Whpn l It permllblo
to servo a meal without ft tablecloth? MAIIY.
Luncheon nnd supper are always served
on the polished table which Is adorned
with embroidered linen nnd lace centro
plece, plate dollies, tumbler doilies nnd
dollies for tho bread nnd butter plates.
Dollies aro also used under tho candle
sticks. Three Questions
Dear Deborah Rush Will you kindly tell me
If It Is considered good form to use a toothpick
nftor eating? '
In It ever permissible for a lady to refuse
to ho Introduced to n man or vtomnn?
What do jou think of the expression, "Not
nt home" when a person Is ut home, hut is en
cuced? M. K. S.
No, in this country It would be consid
ered as Inelegant as chewing gum, Indeed,
even more so.
A -woman may refuse to bo introduced
to a man or woman of known bad reputa
tion, but this Is a matter which should be
handled with tho greatest delicacy.
The expression "Not at home" Is a mat
ter of custom and Is not considered un
truthful as tho person who says tho "Not
at home" has simply the Intention of not
being home to visitors.

But nt that, the worst thing that can hap

very Inrjje practice, for when ho Bets to
tho point where he Is "(rotnR nlsht nnd day"
the doctor Is sure tg ro mostly backward,
so far ns his professional equipment nnd

A Rood mnny things that aVo set forth
In thlq department nre, say, 10 years ahead

the newer methods nnd the latest discov

doctor who Is mediocre Is a. perfectly re

Society and the Prisoned
THOMAS M0TT OSBORNE, former warden
of Sing Sing Prison, has written a'senes ot - -three
articles on "Crime and Criminals, Wexj -Sunday's
