I do not remember and have no record
of having published a recipe for rose Jars
that would keep fragrant for 20 years. Per
haps they will, but I haven't experimented
with them for that length of time. Tho
following recipes are worth while:
Sweet Jar Half pound bay salt, U
pound saltpetre and common salt, all to be
bruised and put on 6 baskets of rose leaves ;
24 bay leaves torn to bits, a handful of
oweet myrtle leaves, 6 handfuls of lavender"
blossoms, a handful of orange or syrlnga
blossoms, the same of sweet violets and
the same of the red of clove carnations.
After having well stirred every day for a
week, add ounce of cloves, 4 ounces of
orris root, 4 ounce of cinnamon and 2
nutmegs, all pounded; put on tho roses,
keep well covered up In a china Jar and
stirred sometimes.
Oriental Jar Three parts filled with dry.
fresh petals of pinks, cloves, carnations or
roses then add the rinds of 2 or 3 lemons,
cut thin ; an ounce of powdered orris root,
H pound or more of bay salt, an ounce of
powdered benzoin, ditto cinnamon, ditto
cloves, ditto nutmeg, a grain of musk, 10
or 12 sweet bay leaves and an ounce each

NE of the several evils that have grown
out of the so-called fight aeainst the.
mysterically speaking, great white plague
Is an Insano fear of tuberculosis. This fear
has been deliberately Inspired by the coun
try fair faker method of "educating the
people." Tuberculosis Is caused by germs;
the germs nre glyen off from the diseased
lung In the sputum ; wherefore, take It from
the frightful placards. If you live nenr a
victim of the disease you are In danger.
Moral: Don't !le near n victim of tuber
culosiscast him out, wash your hands of
him, imprison him, make him n pariah
Should any one plan to erect n hospital for
his proper treatment In your neighborhood,
resist with all your might for, tnke It from
the social service worker, tuberculosis Is
a menace to any community. Should one of
jour friends develop tho disease, cut the
friendship without ceremony for, as you
have been credibly Informed, you might be
Infected by visiting the sick friend.
Tuberculosis is as contagious as quinsy,
pneumonia or "cold" in the head, Does
anybody ever oppose the admission of a
case of pneumonia to a hospital In a res
idential neighborhood? No. The campaign
against th(? Indoor plague has not yet been
taken up by the salaried soda) service peo
ple. Does anybody refuse to bo friendly
with a Uctlm of quinsy? No. The germs
of quinsy hae not yet been featured In
stereoptlcon-plcture talks. Does the State
or city pass laws requiring renoatlon,
fumigating or any other particular rite fol
lowing the death or removal of a pneu
monia patient? No. The pneumococcus
destroys more lives than the tubercle bacil
lus, Is at least as frightful an enemy of
the race, yet hysteria Is not Inspired by a
case of pneumonia In a building or neigh
borhood. So far as the chance of Infection goes.
It Is positively absurd and a wicked ex
travagance to renovate, fumigate or other
wise treat a room after the death or re
moval of a consumptive. If the patient was
careless, filthy or improperly cared for. the
danger existed only while he occupied the
room the danger was thafof contact with
the patient. If he was careful, conscien
tious In the disposal of all sputum, or Intel
ligently nursed, then, of course, the wall
paper, woodwork, hangings and furniture
In the room require no unusual treatment
whatever.
, The time of Infection with the tubercle
bacillus Is Infancy and early childhood.
Usually the disease remains latent smould-
ere until early adult lire or, at least, be
yond the age of puber'y. Then symptoms
manifest themselves, and we say the pa-
tlont has incipient tuberculosis. Neglected
teeth, kissing, milk from tuberculous cows,
nnd the very intimate con'act of tho child
with parents, relatives nnd friends offer
nmple opportunity for infection In enrly
life. The essentials for Infection In any
enso nro two: First, personal contact; sec
ond, prolonged or very frequent contact
with the disease. Casual visl ing, friendly
meeting with a tuberculous person Is In no
seqso dangerous.

Back of one of tho busiest parts of Chest
nut street stands the Business Girls' Chris
tian Club, the last of an historic row of
houses on OlrArd street, Philadelphia's old'
est thoroughfare. This old-fashioned house,
with Its high ceilings nnd huge rooms, Is
to be torn down verv soon, but tho little
gicup of workers who brought tho'buslness
girls' club Into existence will see to It that
their now quarters. Ills Walnut street, win
be Just ns comfortnblo nnd Just ns homey
and ns delightfully hospitable as tho pres
ent clubhouso Is.
Mrs. Ethel Flsk Moore, the secretary of
the houso nnd general i manager,' has the
unique distinction of being the acknowl
edged "mother" to some 3000 girls. These
"children" of Mrs. Moore's come from every
sort of workshop girls, factory girls, little
plg-tnllcd "cash runners" from the depart
ment stores, stenographers nnd some girls
who do not work. Young or old, rich of
poor, Mrs. Moore Is there to encourage them
with their work, to listen to their tnlcs of
woo or to lend a hand In getting up overy
sort of amusement from a moonlight hike
to a class In nmateur nursing,
Not only do tho members of the Business
Girl's Club enjoy a wonderful 10-cent sup
per nnd a substantial lunch at the cafe
teria for 16 or 1G cents, but any 10 girls
who want to get up n class In anything, bo
It drcssmnklng, millinery, gymnasium or
nursing, can pay a small sum, nnd, presto 1
an Instructor' Is provided for them.
"My girls' nro always ready to help,"
Mrs. Moore said. "All I liavo to do Is post'a
sign asking 10 or 15 minutes of their time
when I havo too much work. There will be
GO of them ready and nnxlous to help out
before nn hour Is up. They like tho club
house because they can do as they please.
"Upstairs nro tho roat nnd meeting rooms.
Here a ulrl can wash un and change her
shirtwaist If she Is going out In tho evening.
Sho can check her bng nnd call for It when
she goes home. Her best benu can call
for her from hero. They don't mind coming
to the club nt all.
"Wq havo had thrco weddings In the last
month thoro nro plenty of married girls
In tho club, you know. One girl camo In
with her friends and said she wns going
upstairs to chango her clothes, Well. I
novcr thought anything of it. although I
know thai tho girl hnd no horrtt: sho lived
in a tiny boarding house Tho first thing
I heard was tho chug of a taxi In front of
tho door. There, If you please, was tho
smiling bridegroom nnd best man, all done
up In their evening togs, with lilgh silk
hats and boutomiieres' And down came the
bride in her charming white frock, nnd her
attendants In dainty rose silk. It's the first
wedding wo oer had from tho clubhouso.
I hope If we ever have another I'll have a
chance to give them a send-off." Mrs. Moore
smiled. She's a tall, dark wompn, with
bright, twinkling ojes.
"Wo are able to do moro fon tho work
ing girl and her comfort than organizations
that are run on a chnrltablo bnsjs, because
our commltteo In chnrgo Is composed of
two-thirds working wonien. The other
third Is prominent clubwomen, so thnt th
girls get tho benefit of older women's ex
perience In the dally needs nnd situations
that the working girl Is called uhon to
meet. The girls run everything themselves.
If they want a party they come to mo, and
we get It up. If they want a dance or a
history class, or nny sort of entertain
ment, I seo to It that an Instructress In
this lino is procurod. No, I don't feel
proud of It; that's what I'm here for," Mrs.
Moore will tell you modestly.
l"Tho dues arc only n dollar a -year, al
though nny working girl can come Into the
cafeteria for her flinch. We servo about
10,000 girls a month. I hope that when we
get over In tho new building on Walnut
street, there won't be a girl In Philadelphia
that works who Isn't n member of our
club. They are all happy, and they love
the club. That's a good enough recom
mendation for nny club."

NOW comes the question of wedding
presents. This custom has grown to
such an extent that tho young people of
these days nnd they have very little to pro
vide for their new homes so numerous nnd
so useful are the presents which are sent
them.
It Is the usual thing for all thoso per-
mnna .I.m a a Bt,A,1 in tllA WIddlnR TOCep
tlon to send the brldo a present; for the
bride Is always the recipient of the wedding
offerings. It Is better not to have the silver
marked, as so many duplicates are npt to
bo sent, and It can be readily understood no
persons would want 24 meat platters, 12
dozen salt spoons and equal numbers or
things as often happens, and thero nre
bound to be repetitions In gifts.
Another Bridnl Question
Dear Deborah Ruth Do the maid of honor
and the best man walk up the aisle totetner at
a fcedd ng? " " "
No, the maid of honor walks up tho
nlslo alone, ahead of the bride. The best
man does not take part In the procession, ho
enters tho church from the chancel door
with tho bridegroom. Sometimes, when the
procession goes down the nlslo after tho
ceromony, the beBt man and maid of honor
walk together, but It Is not a very usual
custom.
Chance Acquaintance
Dear Deborah Rush I met a man last week
nt a party when we were all dancing- the Paul
Jones. He asked mo my name and address and
gavo me his name. Yesterday he telephoned
to me nnd asked me to go out to dinner with
him. Do jou think It would be proper for me
to go. Ife seems very gentlemanly, but, of
course, I have never been Introduced to him In
thn iifliml wnv nhil T do not know any one who
knows him. I like him very much, but my
mother says I should know more about him. I
am IB years old and considered beautiful by
my friends. MADEL.
You should follow your mother's advice
In tho matter. Such chance acquaintances
arc seldom to bo encouraged, unless tho cir
cumstances are very extraordinary. And
also except In very unusual cases It Is not
wise for a girl of 18 to go out to dinner
with a man unchapcroncd.

Deor Deborah Ruth Is It good form to use a

No, a knife Is never used for salad. A
fork Is sufficient to separate the leaves.
It Is usual to serve salad as a separato

formal homo luncheon to servo It on n
