Chapter XII I
There is no explaining Nora’s state j
of mind. She understood it least of i
all herself. She felt as though her j
faculties were literally tossed back I
and forth between the doubts assail
ing her and the tempting vista pre
sented to her mental and spiritual
eyes.
Rosalie's triumph, too, had shocked
her without question. It connoted
personal gratification, ambition, some
thing altogether at variance with
Nora’s own reaction to what had
occurred.
To admit for a moment that the
message might be true, that Roger
still lived, even though in another,
plane, another life, another atmos-!
phere. to think that Roger -might be
permitted to survive at all, flooded
Nora’s heart with grateful tender
ness. And her dear young father—
that he would have to come to com
fort her. Before the infinite possi
bility not only of survival, but of
communication thus opened up, she
fairly gasped in awed wonder. The .
bare possibility dwarfed all else.
Contrasted with her own feeling of 1
humility. Rosalie’s personal triumph I
seemed very much out .of keeping. !
Perhaps, though, it was also natural. |
It could not but mean a tremendous I
thing to thus serve as a channel of
communication between the living i
world and the dead. The power it j
gave was, even as Rosalie had said, 1
unlimited. Even in Nora’s mother’s j
day as trumpet medium, she had the
guidance of more than one poor
grieving soul quite within her hands.
Ed and his wife would often' talk
such things over in child’s hear
ing, half in contemptuous pity, never
strong enough, however, to cause'
them to relinquish their profitable I
fraud.
There it was again—a fraud! It
was a fraud in that former instance.
Why not in this experience?
Rosalie was involved in both mes
sages that had come to Nora, but
not in either case could she possbly
have known. Or could she? Over
and over again the same weary tread- |
mill —possibility, hope, doubt —over
and over again.
Nora kept at it all night long, rose 5
early in the morning and went to
her office without seeing Rosalie.
But for her feeling of responsibil
ity in Roger'k death it is likely that
that fine flavor of youth, that tanta
lizing taste, never forgotten and yet
so difficult to recall, would have come
back to Nora without undue delay.
She realized this as she walked to
her place of business, breathing in
the fresh spring morning air.’
Despite her night of tossing to and
fro, mere physical vitality asserted
itself in her appearance. She felt
her cheeks glowing, her arm in
voluntarily swaying with her long |
swing step. After a while she began 1
to feel an appetite—and stepped into ‘
a cafeteria for breakfast.
Usually the two girls had their {
morning meal together. Already Nora
felt a twinge of regret at hurrying )■
off. In countless ways Rosalie had
helped her, and definite, practical acts
of friendship they were. To sudden
ly resent a natural exaltation was
unfair.
As her irritation vanished, Nora
promised herself to call up Rosalie
and see that she was not offended.
It was a lovely morning, the break
fast was so good, the sun so bright,
the skies so blue—life was still very
fair. In reaction from her keen suf
fering, Nora felt almost more than a
flutter of happiness within her. She
did good work at the office and even
stopped at noon to chat with one of
the young salesmen, a thing she had
avoided ever since her sorrow.
After office hours, she stopped in
at a movie show where the orchestra
played a two-step which had been
Roger’s favorite. Nora’s feet beat
time. She hummed the air of in
voluntarily going home.
OUR HOUSEHOLD
CONDUCTED BY LIZZIE QTHOMAS
Commiinity Fairs
Many of you know that I have
“harped” on community fairs almost
ever /since I have been writing for
The Atlanta Journal. Since I have
been in this Tennessee valley I have
suggested, every spring, that we
have a community fair. Until this
year my mother’s sickness has call
ed me to Florida every fall and the
community fair has gone by default.
We have two splendid county agents,
but you must not expect too much
from your county agents. Their time
belongs to every other interest as
much as to your’s. But this year
we got the idea really started. Cap
tain Deal and Miss King agreed that
in all the county of Colbert there
were no better prospects than we
had and I agreed to take my horse
agid buggy and see the people. They
met me most cordially and agreed to
be at the Methodist church the next
Friday night. Here is what our
Sheffield and Tuscumbia papers said
of that first meeting, September 17:
“At an enthVisiastic meeting of the
representative citizens, with Miss
Bennie Frank King, Captain E. R.
Deal and Mr. McKee last Friday eve
ning, it was decided to have a com
munity fair. The beautiful grove in
front of J. D. Mitchell’s store was
selected as an ideal place and the
first day of October the date. Mount
Moriah had been asked to join Spring
Valley and sent some of her lead
ers in progressive work to the meet
ing. By a unanimous vote Mrs. J.
D. Thomas was elected president and
Miss Bertie Mitchell, secretary. Mr.
Ricks and Mr. Sparks were the com
mittee to see after the live stock
and agricultural exhibits. Mrs. Rob
ert Cook, Miss Lillian Ricks, Mrs.
Jeff Johnson, Mrs. Rumple, Mrsi
Walden. Mrs. Veesta Coburn and
Mrs. Hargett were the committee on
woman’s work, and Miss Alice
Thomas had the poultry.”
I am giving you these details be
cause I want some of you to get
busy and have a fair. It’s not too
late. We had exactly two weeks.
I have lived in the buggy or at the
school house or in some way work
ing up the fair five days a week
since the time of” that meeting.
A lady of the committee was in
wonder, we met the Tuesday after
our meeting in the church, and
mapped out our booths, decided that
the school grounds would be better
suited, and named the entry clerks,
the girls to stay at the booths and
decided to sell coffee and sand
wiches to those wanting a lunch.
You see, we charged nothing and
had to have a little money to buy

ROSALIE. Nora had learned when
' she called up that morning,
had a lecture which would
keep her out until late at
1 night. Still humming the -dance
tune When she reached the flat, Nora
hesitated a moment, then selected a
record and set the music going. And
before she realized what had seized
her Nora found herself fox-trotting
across the polished floor, pausing only
to toss aside a loose rug or push
away a chair
It was a familiar air, one she had
danced to often in the past with
I Roger.
“I am dancing with Roger now,”
said Nora, to unwelcome memory,
whose cold, accusing touch she felt
even while the gay notes throbbed
through her being. “Why can I not
dance when it is with Roger I am
j dancing?”
But Memory, however unwelcome,
is not to be so easily shaken off.
“You may pretend that you are
dancing with Roger,” she whispered,
“but it is not true. You know it is
not true. You are dancing with the
spirits of Youth and Joy. You have
broken the faith with your pale lover
who is no more. Go on dancing. You
are no more disloyal than most oth
, ers, and no less.”
I Was it a real voice Nora heard?
: to hear no more, she
; turned the record and was now waltz
; ing. A beautiful figure the girl made
I in the twilight of the room, moving
I with light step, swaying z with the
: music. Only one close at hand could
i have noted the look of growing fear
iin her big, shining eyes.
“Is it a real voice speaking?”
j “Go right on dancing. Why not?
All forget us; you are no more dis
loyal than the others and no less.”
Whether it was before the door
opened or just as it happened, would
be hard to say x Nora stopped sud
denly at the sound, slipped and fell
heavily to the floor.
' Some one switched on the lights.
It was Rosalie, returned home earlier
than she had expected.
Rosalie bent over Nora to find that
her friend was quite unconscious.
After trying vainly to reach several
doctors, Rosalie called one she knew
quite well, Newton Findlay, a neurol
ogist in special practice, who fortu-
I nately was in his office and prom
ised, since she could get no one
else, to come.
“Perhaps it is a fainting spell, but
I fear she may be hurt,” Rosalie ex
plained when he arrived. “I came in
unexpectedly and perhaps startled
her, for I heard her fall. The music
was going, too, but there was no
one here. I am worried, Newton.”
“No wonder,” said Dr. Findley, who
was bending over the prostrate figure.
“The way in which she has fallen has
probably fractured her hip.”
Further examination confirmed his
belief that Nora’s hip was injured.
“Is it a dangerous hurt? I mean,
do you think it will be permanent—
I make her lame, that is?”
“Probably not. But I would rather
■ have an X-ray examination to make
i sure. We must get her to a hos
pital at once.”
But Rosalie was already revolving
this matter in her mind —that clever,
i wide-awake mind whiqh was so quick
■to grasp opportunities duller wits
could never even see.
There were reasons why Rosalie
preferred to keep Nora near her at
this time—not so far removed from
her influence. And there were also
reasons why Rosalie was quite anx
ious for an arrangement which would
bring her into more frequent con
tact with Newton Findlay.
Few men, as Rosalie evaluated men.
were worth bothering with. But it
so happened that Dr. Newton Find
ley, the clever young neurologist, was
one of these few —the one, in fact.
So it was that Rosalie, while ad
ministering to Nora, was also think
ing.
Now she bent closer as her friend
opened her eyes wide.
“I fell,” she said, “help me get up,
will you?” When did you come in,
Rosalie? Just when I fell?”'
(To be continued.)
I ribbons and the red-white-and-blue
paper that we decorated with.
We worked hard to get things in
shade. The school grounds had
been left all summer, and Tuesday
before the fair we met there, took
lunches and spent the day. Mr.
Rumph was our faithful ally, he
never deserted us from the first
meeting, all the committees were
faithful ajid you know we hustled
t z o get booths made, pens for pigs
and a stand to set the chicken coops
on. They look better if not so low
on the ground.
The men borrowed some lumber
and run the 2x4 pieces through the*
schoolhouse windows and rested one
en’d on the ground. They nailed
slats on them and run the 2xlo’s
under the others to make shelves or
steps for the canned things. At
regular intervals, uprights were put
in t>lace to divide the booths. The
side of the school building was the
back of the booths, we tacked sheets
up to cover the wall, and shelves,
There were three shelves the lowest
about two feet from the ground. We
made them beautiful.
We could not use the schoolrooms
beca.use the desks were screwed to
the floors, but we had fires in there,
and in one room we had a better
babies’ contest.
We took dinner enough for every
body. We had a splendid array of
material on the shelves, a creditable
display of cajined vegetables, jel
lies, jams, pickles and sauces. Cakes,
bread, even corn light-bread, and the
crochet and other finger-work was
splendid. The corn, cotton, peas, po
tatoes, pumpkins, pears, apples,
safcgnum and vegetables was amaz
ing; fine Jerseys, fat pigs and beau
tiful poultry. The country fair will
be next. It begins October 5, and
they wanted all the exhibits.
I wish you would try one time; the
social feature is great. So many of
us get busy and do not mix with
our neighbors as we should. We
meet certain friends at church and
| the others drift away. Two days,
I as we fixed the grounds and booths,
we took simple lunches and ate to
j gether and made picnics of our work;
j after dinner we played a game or
two before we started to work again,
got in a ring and played "Mrs.
Dumb.” It limbered us up and we
worked better afterward, because we
had laughed so much. We had visit
ors to the fair from three counties
anil several of the men from Shef
field and Tuscumbia wanted to know
I why we .had not asked for prizes. I
| told them that we did not vyant to go
i munity fair and did not want to go
out of the community, even for
prizes. We used ribbons this time,
and I shall be so glad if some of you
will get to work and have a fair.
It’s a wonderful help and the school
exhibit from Mount Moriah was an
eye-opener to the city teachers.

MARY MEREDITHSADVICEI
TO LONELY GIRLS AT HOME
When a girl enters a room away
from home, where a young man is,
and she has on hat, coat and gloves,
should she remove her gloves be
fore shaking hands? If she is tak
ing off her glove while entering the
door and ha.s it part of way off and
he offers his hand instantly, should
she finish removing it', apologize for
its being half off or what?
When a solitaire diamond is worn
on the engagement finger and no
other ring is worn on that finger,
does it necessarily mean an engage
ment ring?
How should a baked sweet potato
be eaten? Is it proper to mash It
up with butter - on the bread and
butter plate?
. When a girl has been visiting in
one town and starts home, and a
boy friend carries her to the train,
if the cost of the ticket is small,
should the boy or the girl pay for
the ticket?
If it is almost train time and the
boy has not offered to get the ticket,
should she giye him the money and
ask him to get it for her, or should
she go and get it herself?
When traveling in the Pullman,
how does a person go about getMn
the ticket? When a girl traveling
alone wishes to have a berth re
served, how does she go about it?
Thanking you in advance, I am,
IGNORANCE PERSONIFIED.
“Ignorance I’ersoflified”
It isn’t necessary to remove
one’s gloves to shake hands. By
the time you remove them it
would take too long. Unless
you have one hand ungloved it
it proper to shake hands with
gloves on. Women rarely ever
wear a solitaire diamond ring
on the engagement finger. But
if you prefer it, it is not im
proper. Sometimes one hand
looks better than the other and
a diamond ring might look , bet
ter on that hand. Remove sweet
potato from skin always, place
it on your plate and if you like
butter on it, put it there, but
do not mash it too much, it at
tracts attention to one’s plate.
Peelings should be placed on
the side of plate or a * plate
nearby whether bread and
butter or another, plate put
there for that purpose. If . a
young man wishes to pay your
railroad«fare home, and it is
exceedingly small, that is per
fectly proper, but a larce
amount you should pav your
self. You should get your own
ticket or have the money ready
to hand the young .man to get
the ticket for you. Never allow
him to pay it. When traveling
on a Pullman, one should go
down a day or so before de
parture, and get reservations
then one can get the best. Al
ways have Pullman reserved a
day or so ahead to avoid clash
and discomfort. Tell ticket agent
where you want to go, and get
eiUer berth near ladies’ dress
ing room as possible or in cen
ter of car. The center is easier
riding and, in case of wreck, is
about the safest place.
I am coming to you for advice. My
parents won’t let me have good times
like other girls. They keep me at
home most of the time. They make
me go to Sunday school and church
and then I have to come home and
spend the afternoons by myself. They
won’t let me invite any boys and
girls to our home. They say I am
not old enough for boy friends. I
do not want them as sweethearts,
only friends.
There is a boy that lives about
three miles from my home. I would
like to correspond with him. He is
a nice boy. Woul'd it be all right
for me to write him a letter and tell
'aim I would like to correspond with
him? He is sixteen and I am four
teen. Please give me your best ad
vice as soon as possible.
“ROSEBUD."
“Rosebud”: My child you must
have patience. I know how you
feel, you are at the age now when
other ideas are calling to you
besides dolls and toys. But wait
until your wings are stronger,
like the little birdling in a poem
T know, you too shall fly away.
No, I do not think you should
write to the boy until he asks
you, then it would be all right
to correspond with him.
Dear Miss Meredith: Please give a
heart broken girl good advice. Tell
me is there any harm to kiss a boy
when he says he loves you and is
in earnest. Reckon does a boy love
you when he gives up all others for
vou? Thanking you for advice.
Please print this as it is my fourth
time. CURTIS' DARLING.
Yon don’t, sound like a broken
hearted giri, evidently you have
been trying to extract a bit of
“joy” out of life. But you will
be a broken hearted girl if you
keep up the “kissing game” for
it that game, many women are
losers and they pay highly: It
has always been an indication
that a man cared for the wom
an when he forsook all others
for her. I suppose your friend
must care for you.

Sabbath School
Lesson
Matt 3v-4:4
BY D?.. MARION Mc3K. FUM
Golden Text: “This is my beloved
son, in whom I am well pleased.”—
Matt. 3:17.
Matthew, in presenting his theme
of Jesus as the Christ, sets before
his people, the Jews, those events in
the life of Jesus that should con
vince them. So today we are to
consider his story of the way the
King was heralded and inaugurated
into office, and tested.
The Herald of the King
We have on record only one inci
dent in the life of Jesus after His
birth until His public ministry be
gins, and that is not recorded by
Matthew for a reason that will be
seen. It was not until he was thirty
years of age that Matthew has any
thing more to say about Him. Then
he tells of the stir that was caused
by the appearance in the wilder
ness of a prophet whose plain dress,
direct language, and simple life
broke through the crust of the un
realities that had been super-impos
ed on all that was religious, and
brought the nation to a sense of
its need.
In order to properly understand
the messages of John we must re
member that he came to a nation of
legalists. God had given them the
law to give them a standard of holi
ness, to let them know what right
eousness is; but they had assumed
their ability to live up to that
standard. It was intended to show
them their need, and they had per
verted it into a system of religion.
They had of course utterly failed to
attain to its standard, had been con
demned and judged by it, and yet
had increased their sin by adding
a mass of tradition that made their
whole lives an attempt to do or a
failure to do.
To such a nation John came with
his abrupt message: “Repent, for
the Kingdom of the heaven is at
hand.” This was not the gospel
that Paul preached,' he preached the
gospel of the grace of God, and it
was entirely different from the gos
pel of the kingdom that John preach
ed and that the disciples preached
before the crucifixion. John was
telling the Jews that the Kingdom of
the heavens that the prophets of the
past had spoken of was now ready
to be established because the King
was at hand. He was announcing
the approach of the King; as of old
when a king was to come that way,
the forerunner went ahead and had
the rough places made smooth and
the ruts filled up to make a highway
for him, so now John was preparing
the way for the coming of the King
of whom all the prophets, had spok
en, by telling them that pride must
be abased and humanity exalted that
the Way might be made smooth.
Repentance as John preached it
was not reformation, as so many
seem to have thought, not “doing
better,” but it was the repentance
such as Job made. Job was the best
man that the Gentile world had ever
known; in fact, he was used by God
as an illustration of a righteous
man; but Job had to be brought to
the point where he could see that
all his doing was of no avail, and
to cast himself as utterly worthless
and undone when he saw himself in
the light of God’s Holiness.
In the crowds that came to John
were many of the Pharisees and Sad
ducees, as utterly apart as daylight
and darkness, except that they both
trusted in their descent from Abra
ham for their salvation. When John
saw them he distrusted the reality
of their repentance, and so said to
them that they must show fruits
worthy of repentance, and that the
best way for them to do this was to
cast away entirely any dependence
they might have in their Abrahamic
descent; for if necessary God could
raise up children to Abraham out of
the stones that were all about them.
This was a bitter pill for these Jews
to swallow, but it was a necessary
one if they were to be subect's of the
Kingdom.
Those who confessed their sins and
repented after this fashion, he bap
tized in the Jordan, as an evidence
that they had turned their back on
helf and all that it represented, and
turned to cast themselves wholly on
he mercy of God. But Jqhn dis
tinctly stated to them that his bap
tism was only of water and had no
efficacy, but that there should come
One after him whose shoes he was
unworthy to unloose, who would bap
tize with the Holy Ghost and with
fire, and whose purging would sepa
rate the good from the bad.
The Inauguration of the King
At this time carhe Jesus from Gal
ilee to the Jordan to be baptized of
John. Npte that it was for this par
ticular purpose that He came; it was
not but of curiosity or by chance. Os
course, John demurred; but Jesus in
sisted, saying, “Spffer it to be so now,
for thus it becometh us to fufill all
righteousness.”
We can probably get a better idea
of what Jesus intended.and why He
was baptized if we go back to the Old
Testament a bit. Os course He had
no sins to be repented of, and it
could not have been for that purpose
But we know that it was at the be
ginning of His public ministry and
that He was at that, time about thir
ty- years old, and that all of the years
prior to this had been years of si
lence, and that there was an interval
between this and the cross. Now
with this as a background we, may
get some further light. When the
paschal lamb was taken it was on
the tenth day, it was then kept four
days, and on the fourteenth day was
sacrificed. I had to be without spot
or blemish. Now after three times
ten years of silence, during which He
had lived as a man without spot or
blemish, Jesus comes to identify
Himself with His people and to of
fer Himself as the Lamb of God, as
John proclaimed Him to be without
spot or blemish, that He might offe<
Himself as a sacrifice for His peo
ple acceptable to God. And after His
baptism, God spoke saying. “This is
my beloved Son in whom I am well
pleased.” In other words, I do ac
cept you as a Lamb wittout spot, 1
am satisfied that the years of si
lence has about pooved that yoti are
worthy to take the sinners’ place."
And further to prove that, the
Third Person of the Trinity, the
Holy Spirit, descends upon Him as
a dove and rests upon Him. At last
He had found a Man whose heart
was in such thorough sympathy with
His own that He could come and
lodge with Him. It is rather sig
nificant that He took the form of a
dove for that was the only bird that
was resignated as a sacrifice; and in
the 68th Psalm, verse 13, the wings
on the dove are spoken of as silver
and the feathers of gold—speaking
of the divine redemption and the di
vine glory.
And so the baptism of Jesus was
for the purpose of inaugurating Him
into the office of the king; for be
fore He could become the actual
King of the Kingdom»which God was
to set up, He must be the priest and
the sacrifice to put away the sin
which separated the people from
God. He was anointed but not y.et
crowned. From this time He was
in reality the Christ, the “anointed
one.”
The Testing of the King
Before He could begin His public
work, however. He had to be tested,
and so immediately after His bap
tism tie is led of the Spirit into the
wilderness to be tested of the devil.
The first man had been tested in a
garden, where he had everything
that heart or soul could desire; he
had failed and fallen because he
had not obeyed. The devil had test
ed him because God had given him
dominion over all His creation, and
this was what the devil had stolen
and intended to keep. Through dis
obedience the first Adam had fallen
and come under the power of the
devil. Now that a new Man has
come, not generated by man but by
God, in very truth that Son of God
but yet a Man, who has come to do
what the first man had failed to do;
He is tested under far different cir
cumstances—He is in a wilderness.
He is hungry after forty days of
fasting, He is alone.
Space forbids as complete a dis
cussion on the temptation as we
would desire, but suffice it to say
that He was tested in the same way
that the first man was—-the lust of
the flesh, the lust of the eye, and
the pride of life. This was the es
sence of the testing of Adam; it is
also the essence of the testing that
you yourself have every day. The
first man fell because he disobeiyed,

A Proverb Puzzle

PROVERB "WHERE j
I THERES A WILL THERE'S AWAY ' " i
The answer to The Tri-Week
ly’s last proverb puzzle was,
“Where’s there’s a WILL there’s
a WAY.” Did you guess it?”
Here’s another. The little cartoon
shown above illustrates an old, fa
miliar proverb—one you’ve probably
heard many times. Can you figure
it out? Look for the correct answer
in the next issue of The Tri-Weekly.
Don’t Discard Your
Old Knitting Bag
(New York Evening Sun.)
And do you knit? But if you don’t
at you own a knitting bag. If
not, buy one. I know of nothing
under the sun more useful when one
starts to go anywhere. All the odds
and ends that cannot be tucked into
the suitcase or the bag can be thrown
Into the knitting bag.
The idea can be carried very, very
far. Jessie, who is pretty and young
and smart, came out from New York
to spend the night with a friend in
the suburbs. They were going to a
dance that night, but Jessie appeared
only with a voluminous knitting bag
of bright hues. She was knitting,
too.
Her hostess was rather taken
aback. Furnishing Jessie with night
things and toilet things and evening
frock presented difficulties. But
Tessie emptied her knittjng bag on
the bed, and there were everything
any mortal young woman could need
for a short visit, including a super
fluous blouse and some napkins to
hem in tier leisure minutes.
Things do not get crushed or rum
pled in a knitting bag. Put any heavy
articles on the bottom and then fold
your clothes up loosely, wrapping in
tissue paper to keep fresh and clean.
Jessie does not use paper, for she
says it “gives the show away.” She
buys silk mull by the yard, hems it
around neatly and uses as little bags
in packing. It lasts indefinitely and
takes up no room.
the second Man won becaue' He
would not do anything that His Fa
ther had not first told Him to do.
The secret of His success was that
He walked with God and waited on
God. He proved Himself worthy to
be the King. He .was tempted in all
points like as we are yet without
sin, therefore, He is able to suc
cor those that are tempted. In the
wilderness He won the first battle
with our great adversary; the others
were easy to win after that, although
they were terrible.
What a glorious Savior we have!
When you are tempted by thp devil
now, do not try to fight him your
self; for if you do you will be cer
tain to lose; but just turn him over
to the One who has met every test
that He was subjected to, and al-’
ways won.

KITCHEN TABLE HINTS
The worktable should be plain, sub
stantial and of such material that it.
is easy to clean and keep in good
condition. Most kitchen tables have
a shallow drawer for small utensils,
while others have drawers, draw
boards, and bins for storing supplies.
They are known as pastry tables.
Where storage space is liynited, the
bins will be found particularly use
ful.
Unfinished wooden tables require
much scrubbing and under constant
use become stained and unsightly.
Varnishing, or painting and enamel
ing, the lower parts, and covering
the top with a non-absorbent, easily
cleaned material saves fnuch labor in
the end. It should be brought well
over the edges and fitted and tacked
carefully so that no water can get
underneath and so that no sharp
edges are exposed. Zinc has the ad
vantage of being proof against hot
utensils, but it is affected by both
acids and alkalies and is, therefore,
rather hard to keep in condition. It
is not a suitable material to come
in contact with many foods, house
hold specialists of the United States
department of agriculture say. Oil
cloth is also widely used for cover
ing tables, but linoleum, although
more expensive, is far more durable,
especially when fastened to the table
with waterproof cement.
Porcelain and glass table tops are
very attractive and easy to clean,
but are relatively expensive and
must be used carefully. Separate
enameled -ware tops in various sizes
fit over wooden tables are on the
market. They are very convenient
and not expensive. Marble-topped
tables have long been considered
especially good for pastry making,
but are now almost prohibitive in
price, and a polished marble slab laid
on an ordinary table answers the
purpose fully as well.
The Cult of Black China
(From the Edinburg Scotsman.)
Hostesses are using black china
more than ever, and .every kind of
design is in favor for table decora
tion, necessitating new ideas for the
manufacturer and also for the hos
tess.
Although much color is used, many
women revert to the black flower
bowls, because such a great variety
of floors can be arranged, and all
colors can be made to harmonize
with the neutral vase or bowl.
Although black china has been In
vogue so long, it is more popular
than ever before, and brilliant but
terflies are perched on the brims
for color effect. Old rose colored
mats can be used with bowls of
roses, and rose colored candles in
the black candlesticks.
All kinds of new, quaint birds and
little animals are being sold for
those who like the bizarre effect.
