COMPETITION GREAT FUN.
New Touch That May B? Qivnn to a
Last Ytar'a Belonging ? Wild Flowar
Gar-Ion Mad* on a Half Dollar Scrap
of Ground.
Pear Riga-Summer ton parties are
fascinating till* seaaon. Everybody
dances ut these llttlo gatherings ua
much as? 1 mean moro than? th*y drluk
tea, punch, etc. Tho other afteruoou 1
went to a delightfully "a nappy" (by
tho way, this uml "wonderful" are the
slang words that are being worked
orerUine this summer) ten served In
the garden of a friend's home.
It was given In honor of two (Iris
who were stuylng In tho bouso and
who frankly owned themselves "utter
ly frivolous," "So I am giving a tea
parly to uiatcb," my hostess wbls
pered, as she bung round my neck a
lubel bearing a largo number.
"Just as If I am a motorcar or a
thing at auction to bo knocked down to
tho highest bidder," I laughed.
"That lust Is moro or less what you
are," Mrs II. replied. And, as a matter
of fact, time proved that I was. So 1
carried olT a very beautiful silver rase
bowl, which was the first prize for
ladles.
Hut I must explain the competition
It was both uovel and original, ami It
Isn't easy to Hud these two quallticu
tlons at "name" teas. Is It?
After having been duly numbered
' each guest was given a little card,
with pencil attached, on which was
? written: "If you had to choose bo
; tween Instant annihilation or marriage.
| which girl (or man) lu this room
would you take for your life partner?
Please put down tho number of the
candidate you select. N. B.? It Is
against the rule* to voto for unnihlla
Kach card boro the nuuil>er of the
person holding It, aud It would surely
have been discovered If guests voted
for themselves, which of courso would
not bo fair, since the lucky owner of
the highest number of votes took flrst
prlie. What a mean Insinuation this
is. but It would spoil tho appearance
of the page If I erased It, so let It go
as ?n expose of my really truly self.
To como back to the competition, a
lot of pleasure wus given to a dear old
bachelor eolouel of seveuty-three, who
easily beaded the men's poll and was
| presented with a charming' leather
blotter. The popularity of tho girl
who got the most number of votes was
easily accounted for because she was
going to be married the next week,
and tho men felt they could vote for
her without compromising themselves
Another story:
If .vou Iittvc n summer pnruwi ui?>
needs rejuvenntlng try Kntherlno L.'s
latest scheme. You know bow {Cath
erine lores pretty thing*, and this para
sol Idea of here Is really worth while.
Tbe sunshade was originally a beau
tifully embroidered one of white lluen
with a design of roses, and ufter care
fully washing and bleaching tbe para
plule she tinted tho tluwera lu rose
shades and tho leaves with water
colors.
This gave an entirely new touch to
a hist year's belonging. Katherlne, the
Immaculate, as wo call her, always
uses a little water color paint the cop
rect shade of yellow on the extension
part of the soles of her nisset shoe*
In order to keep them looking like new.
With a [hi I ogles to Mr. Kipling? an
other ?tory:
1 know how fond you nro of wild
flowers, so a garden I saw recently
Immediately suggested your brighl
iKinn.v self to me. It was a wild Howe:
garden, and. as tho owner expressed
It, she had made It from a scrap ol
ground "ua large us a half dollar," am
It certainly does blossom llko a rose.
'The best way to uiuke your garden,'
said the womiiu who knew, "la t<
transplant your flowers from th(
woods. It Is almost Impossible tc
gather wild seed*. The wind and thi
birds get ahead of one. And tbe flor
lsts have very few of the seeds needed
Some of the wild plants that coun
from bullis can be procured from thi
nurseryman. Mnny of the violets ant
hcpatlcas. but practically all of thi
plants, must bo taken from the wood*
"ltcgln your garden," continued th
flower enthusiast, "by transplanting I
bit of tbe soil as well, for few of th
flowers will thrive In ordinary gardei
soil. l>ig out a space of fourteen o
flfteen Inches deep and till It with lea
mold and loam from the woods. If yoi
can't do this mix a little sand uu<
much fertilizer In with tho garden sol
If It Is heavy; If It Is light and sand
enrich It thoroughly with manure.
"When the Iwd Is accomplished begl
to transpluut tho flowers aud plaut:
'?In a moist, shudy corner pile sou:
stones. It Is here that the ferns an
moss can lie placed."
This garden Is going to be lovely n
summer, and I am sure tho advlco I
reliable. The results so far sufel
prove It In a most satisfactory way.
Why don't you start a garden of thi
sort on your half dollar plot? Tln.e
up: so. with all good wishes and
pleasant month of roses for you ill
