WHEN you buy food, have you
any guide to ko by? When a
merchant sells you one-qumter peck
or one-half gallon of food do you
know how much it should weigh? To
market intelligently the hou.-.eife
must know the various weights of
the foods in the maikets..

When Birds Fly South
Some hirds begin their southward
flight in July, and they nre the ones
that have farthest to go, as some are
not content until thev reach Patagonia,
says the American Forestry Magazine,
of Washington, D. C Septembpr marks
the great exodus, and n majority of birds
select the night for fljing In tllght thi
birds can be heard calling to one an
other on almost any cloudy night On
clear nights they go up several thousand
feet and nre out of hearing.
Home-Making
The art of home-making is very dif
ferent from the art of dressmaking.
Slany women have beautiful clothes and
hideous homes. Others dress like frumps
and leave one spellbound at the gra
ciousneKR of their houses. Dressing
one's self i a far lesser art tbap dress
ing one's home Dretslug one's self is
a wholly egoistic amusement, while ere
i ntiug a beautiful atmosphere where
others may rest and be happy shows a
developed social consciousness and a
brotherhood with the world spirit.

Scrub the stains with a cloth senked

as soon as it becomes discolored, and
continuing uloug as any color comes

removing pitch stains from rugs or deli

For Soldier's Party
1o fhe'l dttar of II omnii v rave
Dear Madam: I nothc wheic jou
have given games foi parties. I wonder
if jou could mention a couple of games
that could be plaved at a patriotic party
that is to be given for a soldier who
returned lately. HIS SISTER.
In one corner of the loom have a table
with a "tent" arranged over it. The
tent mnj be made of canvas or of a
blanket, thrown over a clothesline. At
the table sits a "recruiting officer,"
who. as each reel nit for the evening's
games come up, hands out a score caid
in uiue or Kiiuhi. rue two wio lcccivc
gold cards nre captains of the respective
sides Theie should be an equal num
ber of plajeis on each side. Kach player
is equipped with a palm leaf fan and
each side has a basket tilled with
"bombs" made of blue or khaki paper.
The divisions are lined up on opposite
sides of the room, and the object of
the game is for each side to send bombs
into the other's territory nnd to make
them fall to the lloor. The opponents
try to keep them away with the fans.
Kach bomb whkh lands in opponent's
territory counts one for the successful
ship, and a gold star may be pasted on
caeh score card. The greatest number
of stars wins a prie for the captain
who holds it, and each star counts for
the members of the division, as the
sioie cauls arc kept throughout the
evening.
In another part of the room have

DANCING WITH STRANGERS
AT THE SUMMER RESORTS
Is a Hazardous Pastime, but Too Strict Mothers Unknowingly
Place Daughters in the Path of tt
'pWO young girls come' to me with, the
question as to whether or not it is
proper to dance with strangers in the
pavilions, etc., at summer resorts. The
girls are seventeen and eighteen and
say their parents will not permit them
to make engagements with boys becnuse
they think they nre too young. There-
lore, each night the girls go off
themselves.

the danger to which thev nre snbtect
ing their daughters. 1 wonder if such
parents realise in what an utterly in
consistent way they nre bringing up
their daughters. Such an utter lnck
of trust in one vvny nnd sin h a whole
sale dose of it another.
At seventeen nnd eighteen girls nre
well on the wny to giving n grent many
of their thoughts to bojs. All girls
are the same at heart nnd jou might
as well try to stop n dancing siinbenui
as try to do away with these thrills
they get from the merest thought of
.some youth in-n blue coat, "ice-cieam"
trousers and beautifully cleaned white
buckskin shoes.
The most successful parents aie those
tvho give open ear to these thrills. As

rug! Not a pink and white affair with
"bath" appearing on it. Dear me,
no ! This bath mat bus n foundation
color of delft blue, and the design is in

' We lead intuh about the ninny hair
tonics which aie guaranteed to grow
hair whore theie never vns a hair be
before. However, whnt I really want
to tnlk about is not a hair tonic, which
most people do not use until their hair
begins to depart, but of a shampoo,
which helps to keep the hair fiom com
ing out in the first place. It comes
from Russia, and every one knows what
beautiful black tresses the ladies have,
and what bushy beards adorn the Rus
sian gentlemen. It is a powder, makes
the hnir soft and lustious, and even
has such a foreign look that to see it
is to buy it. That is, of couise, if jou
have fifty cents, and like foreign
products.
Tho renson this tnpe is considered a
verj superior kind of tape is because
it doesn't wrinkle nnd twist. Hvery one

you can see from the girls' meaningful
miery, it is those mother who do not
g)ve ear who nre fatally defeating their
own ends.
IT IS UFIcsq to dwell on Uie dangers
of girls' talk-iug to strange men.
whether it lie on dance floors, on the
beach or wherever it might hnppen
to be. It is simply too great a hazard
to make any mother keep her engle eye
open.
But you can't keep your eagle ey
intelligently open Unless jou see to it
that a girl's natural interest in boy
and pnstimes suitable to her nge are
satisfied. One of the most interesting
summer vacation families I ever knew
was one where the four girls in the
family had n fearful time to get stnrted
in the evenings because the boys who
came for them loved tn linger and talk
to their mother and father. The secret
of this wns, of course, thnt the parents
weie jolly good pals with the boys,
And because they were and therefor
got to know them very well, they knew
their daughters were fnr safer in these
escorts' hands than if they hnd gone
meandering off by themselves.
