Stunts for a Dinner
To the Editnr of 1 Oman's Pas''
Dear Madam I belong to a foreign
missionary sooiet called "The Stand
ard Bearers.'' We expect to have u
dinner next month, and while we are
still sitting at the table we usually have
some kind of entertainment. I would
be er.v grateful if you would suggest
some kind of fortune or games that
would int"rest girls from sixteen to
twenty -five" ears of age. I expect
from thirty-fhe to fort girl.
M. A. L
Teacup fortunes would be fun for
jtur dinner. When the banquet i
over have teacups passed on a traj aud
ask each guest to take one Inside have
little fortunes written on a piece of
paper carefully folded up. Let no one
read a foune until eerybody has a
teacup. You can arrange the cups in
one of several wajs; the drawing may
be huphazard, or jou may have the ont
for the women tied with a pink ribbon,
while men draw the blue -ribboned ones .
or j ou could have a tag attached to each
cup. bearing the name of the person for
whom it i- intended. If you used the
third idea it would be better to have the
tra placed upon the table, so that it
can" be paed down the length of the
table in full view of every one. This
ought to tak up a good deal of time.
In the same cup you might have slips,
just for certain persons, asking them to
perform in some way for the entertain
ment of th guests. That is, if jou
know that one person sings, inclose in
her teacup u request for a song ; or if
Eome one plays or some one recites, call
upon each of them for a "stunt."
Another stunt that is lots of fun is to
ask each guest to tell u story, an
nouncing that a prize will be awarded
for the best one. Then, as soon as the
story is bfgun, interrupt with questions
and pxclamations that take so long that
the time limit is used up without anj
story being told After several persons
have gon through this ordeal the rest
will get "on" to the game, and it will b

I Save the Kisses
Dear Cjnthia Mav 1 saj a few
wordi to "Anna P.' '!
"Anna C." why not sac jour kisses
till the right man comes along?
i I agree with "Babj " when she says
that those bojs wouldn't, for a minute,
'think of asking jou to be their wife.
You are all right just for a good time in
their opinion, and when thev are tired
of jou jou arc the onlj one who is hurt,
not they.
I am only joung in; self and 1 used to
think the same as jou along in 1917,
but on" night one of those kind of boj-s
who only want jou for a whilp uiftil
thu' ship sails told hip a few things,
and one bit of adwoe he gave me was
"sae your kisses, si.ter, until you are
old enough and jou meet the right one.
ours arc too nice to gic awaj."
Anna, it was a prettj decent chap who
told me that and he was a sailor. I can
tell jou I took his adMce and I have
met the right one, and 1 feci repaid for
waiting
Save your kisses. You won't regret it
and the boys will think more of it. We
all differ in our opinions, of course, but
that is mine save them, Anna, till the
"man" tomes along. ENGAGED.

THE NEWEST INDOOR SPORT
OF STANDING IN EMPTY CARS
Is a Game That Is Played Only by Men, but Women Arc the
Proverbial Innocent Bystanders That Ahvays Get Hurt
THERE is a new "Indoor sport"
which is Indulged in exclusively by
men. The game can- be played only on
tiolley cars which have long seats run
ning lengthwise of the car. The rules
urc unwritten; in fact, Uio game Itself
is not 'o recognized one, but it must
be a game. There is no other name to
rtive it.
The object is to fool the greatest
possible number of riders about the
number of empty seats in the car. I
-aw the game played this morning. A
woman got on the car, finding it crowd
id, with a double line of mep standing
in the aisle.. They were talking Big
Business in flowing terms, us men do
in trolley cars in the morning, as they
swayed and swung on the straps. "How
nice of them!" the woman thought.
"They have given all the scats in the
car to women." For there was not a
woman standing up.
Then a "foul" was made. Some one
who was sitting down got up and
edged her way through the double wall

Most attractive models, for
immediate or early spring wear
of men to get out. And the woman in
tho aisle pushed in and took her place.
Then sho looked about her In aston
ishment. She and two other women
were the only ones on that whole long
seat! The only other occupants wero
the knees of the men standing up.
WHY? Men have grumbled for years
about having o get up and give
seats Jn trolleys and trains to women
who give no thanks, etc. In these long,
empty cars the men have a chance to
sit down, there would be room for
them to sit down and not even be com
pelled to move up to make room for a
woman. But they stand up. For blocks
and blocks they stand up. They beckon
to a woman who is standing to show
her that there is a sent for her. But
the -woman cannot accent their gallan
try because she cannot get through this
line of them standing up, with their
knees braced against the edge of empty
scats.

Finds She Loves Him
Dear Cjnthia 1 have known a joung
man mj own age for more than three
j ears. Before the war he used to take
me out quite often. When he went away
he started corresponding, and I an
swered his h'tters. In some of them he
told me that he eared for me, but in
answering I necr said whether I cared
for him or not I hae only seeu him
twii-e since his return, us he went to
his home town to live and work. Ho
started corresponding again, but not
lery regularlj. I didn't hear from him
for two mouths until Christmas time;
then he sent me a nice booklet and I
sent one in return. I haven't heard
from him since. What I want to know
is, do jou think he cares for me? Would
you tend him a nice, friendly letter,
thanking him for his booklet, or would
j-ou wait until jou heard from hiin?
There has never been any love-making
between us, just good friend5, hut I
find I really Iote him. STELLA M
The joung man must certainly like
jou. or he would not trj to continue the
friendship by mail. Ccrtaiuly write and
thank him for the boukltt You have
never encouraged him into thinking jou
raio Y'ou can, therefore, tafelj write
frinndly letters to him.
' Be careful not to be sentimental in
your letters, but if he tells jou agaiu
he cares, be honest and saj jou care,
too.
Y'ou can't see Iier face, but she turned away purposely, so that jou could
see that big bow of while organdy that finishes her sash. Her ruffle,
are all of organdy, too, hut the froilt itself is of French blue dotted
swiss. Tho hat matches the dress and, like it, is adcrned with a floppj

Adventures With a Purse
"D
O YOU think there will he any
don't know," she replied, rather dis
couruginglj. "There are only a few
sets lemainiug." But I aiu going to
tell jou about them, anj how, and 1
think perhaps you can get them if jou
look sharp. 'Thej" are a salt aud
pepper shaker. "I don't sec unjthiug
in that," jou suiff disdainfully. Yes.
but wait just a minute. They stand
about three inches high, are of oxidized
silver finish, and they are cunning little
ken pie dolls, with holes in their heads
for the pepper and salt to sift through.
Your baby would adore u set. if he is
old enough to lmc attained the dignity
of the use of salt and pepp'-r The
set costs $2.DU
Tt has been claimed br tho-e who
have nvide the studv of feminine beauty
a serious mattnr that relaxed aud tired i
muscles, and tissues aie th" cause of,
wrinkles. Naturullj. then, the way to I
preent w- uklos and lines is tu keep
the facial muscles and skiu tissue iu
healthy condition One waj to do this
is by means of a lotion I know of The '
claim is that the lotion will not onb I
help to prevent wrinkles, but that it
also will frequentlv cause small lines
and wrinkles already started to auish.
The price is ,$1, aud certainlj, if it will
do all that is claimed for it, it is well
worth the price. And surely it is worth
a trial.
There is no particular reason why you
should use a wooden salad fork and
spoon, for, of course, you can serve
salad with anj; fork nnd spoon. But
iust the same, if ou are a woman who
rejoices in perfect appointments in j'our
home, jou will like to have oue of the
Japanese wooden salad sets, which may
be had for teventy-ne cents. I know
jou will like them.
1 guess mj statement would go un
challenged were I to assert that every
shop in the city which sells any kind of
'lace also sells filet lace. It becomes
meielj a questiou of finding where the
assortment is best, with the prices most
reasonable Well, then if you are look
ing for lilet lace for a dress, or for
collar aud cuffs or for uny other trim
ming, jou hid better ask me about the
shop I haie known about since only
ery lecently. The filet lace is ex
quisite, and the assortment quite large.

So much for the distinction.
Now for the reason
Just one small word QUALITY
We say to you in all sincerity, voicing at the same
time the testimony of hundreds of thousands of hard to
please coffee drinkers, that "Asco" Blend is the most
satisfying cup that ever passed your lips. ,
That rich, sniooth, delightful flavor and pleasing
aroma, coupled with its full, heavy body, is the reason
why it is the almost universal coffee.
