Guests—Hints For the Entertained By VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DE WATER There are so many more guests than there are hostesses that there must, of necessity, be more discourtesies per petrated by the entertained than by the entertainers. And they do perpe trate them. First of all. one of the most com mon errors of th«* careless guest In posse is committed before he goes to the house of his would-be hostess. It consists of his frequent neglect in re plying to an Invitation. Those who are punctilious in such matters little 'know how many persons are regard less of the notes inviting them to various functions. "Oh, another invitation!" sighs the much-sought-after-man, tossing it upon his desk. "I'll answer it after a while." There it lies, forgotten. Surely the way to social perdition might be paved with unanswered invitations. Men are not the only sinners In this respect. The busy woman, unless she employs a social secretary, sometimes forgets her acceptance or regret. The invitation once accepted there are such well-known rules as to what one should do that the "wayfaring man though a fool" could scarcely go astray sufficiently to ignore them. It is needless call attention to the fact that one should be punctual In arriving at a dinner or luncheon at the hour named. I say It is needless —and yet, is it? Have we not all waited in the draw ing-room before a dinner while our hostess tried bravely to conceal her annoyance at the tardiness of some gue^—knowing all the while that the dinner was being "done to death" or that the raw oysers were getting warm and the souffle cold and sodden? So, perhaps, after all, It is not superfluous to remind the reader that guests are sometimes late. RASH ON CHILD ITCHED AND BURNED Covered Entire Face. Very Cross. Could Scarcely Sleep Day or Night. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Sores Disappeared. 179 Pennsylvania Ave., Phoenlxvllle, Pa. —"The rash that appeared on my little child's face was in spots which covered the entire face and forehead. They itched and burned her so that she scratched causing ■ores to form. It made her very cross and rile could scarcely sleep either day or night. I tried various cores but without success. At last I tried the Cuticura Soap and Oint ment and in two days the little red pimple* showed signs of disappearing. After using the Cuticura Soap and Ointment for a week these sores disappeared and she was cured." (Signed) Mrs. M. E. Freed, July 5, 1913. ERUPTION IN RASH ON SCALP 637 Forster St., Harrisbarg. Pa.—"There was a slight eruption on my scalp in the form of a rash. My scalp itched and burned ▼ery much at times especially when my head became heated. My hair fell out grad ually and was dry and lifeless and also very thin. At t±ie advice of a friond I tried Cuti cura Soap and Ointment. I washed my icalp in warm suds of Cuticura Soap and applied the Cuticura Ointment. After three weeks the Cuticura Soap and Oint ment cured me of scalp trouble." (Signed) Mrs. Wra.

MONDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG flflijiflfl TELEGRAPH JUNE 1, 1914. Hut many functions are of the kind that reach from one hour to another so that the participant may appear when it suits his or her convenience. Such being the case, why does he or she—it is usually she—sometimes ar rive before the first hour named on the invitation, for Instance, at three thirty when the cards for the tea she is attending state specifically "from four to sevfen"? But when the guest has come at the proper time and is safely en sconced in the drawing-room, her duties have only begun. For, deny it as we may, the guest, as well as the hostess, has her duties. One of these is to be as agreeable as possible to anyone whom Bhe chances to meet Even if she does not know the per son touching elbows with her she is quite right in speaking to her and In chatting of the "nothings that make up life." The hostess, unable perhaps to lei -t> her position on what one man tern "the firing line"—or, in other words the place where she must stand to re-« ceive here guests— will feel her heart lighter and herself less burdened by a sense of responsibility if she sees peo ple conversing happily together. Therefore, nobody has a right to be a wall-flower. If one is too difficult to talk with a stranger within a friend's home one would best not go Into so clety. The veriest tyro in social life knows Kiat one should greet one's hostess as soon as one enters her drawing-room. Few persons neglect to do this. As much cannot be said about them when they take their departure. May it not be that in the rush and absorption of everyday life we are losing some of the sweet, old-time courtesy which was, after all, very lovely?

I.ICS MJKKKABLKN. A FIMH MA ST ICR PI EC E Wilmer and Vincent have sent to Harrisburg for to-day, to-morrow and Wednesday, as a three-day feature in their Colonial Theater, a nine-reel masterpiece of motion picture photo graphy. It is the wonderful produc tion of "Les Mlserables" from the cel ebrated book by Victor Hugo, and tells a thrilling story in picture that never has been equalled in the records of motion picture work. There will be two acts on the bill with this big picture, making'a. bill that will appeal to all theatergoers. The picture Itself will consume two hours in the show ing, and Is booked at greater expense than attaches the rental of any other films on the market. This picture was bonked for the Majestic Theater earlier in the season at high prices, but owing to a confusion of dates never reached there. Now the public gets the bene fit by seeing it at reduced prices.—Ad- vertisement. VERDICT IN DAMAGE SUIT Waynesboro June I. —Mrs. John A.
