Charm Is a fairylike elfin thing which the dictionary defines as the power of delighting, bewitching or en chanting. Magnetism is defined as hynotism and carries with it the idea of a force which attracts one even against his will. Now a few nights ago a group of us were discussing certain people we know In terms of great enthusiasm. "She is one of the most magnetic women I know," cried a man of one friend, and then someone commented of another: . "He Is irresistible. You forgot everything about him except his tremendous magnetism when you're with him. Of course when you get away— The sudden break made me stop and think, but it was filled in by a comment on a third person whose charm was a thing we all felt and loved. Now the charming woman is a shy, simple little creature who is devoted to her husband, her home and her child. She will probably never do anything very startling with her life—but all who come into it are re freshed and delighted. As I contrasted the woman, to whose charm we all attested and agreed. I realized that It had the fair elfin quality of cobwebs on the grass at early morning and of birdsong at twilight and evening dew. It was nothing tangible, nothing startling or conspicuous, merely an exquisite and enchanting something like the hush of the woods or the first faint tinge of sunrise. Charm is the perfume of a rare and fine personality. It is the ex quislte aroma and fragrance of a life beautifully and graciously lived. It is due to thought of others, to unselfish love for humanity and to all the truly delightful qualities which anyone who thinks kindly and expresses his thoughts delicately and with quiet courage Is bound to express. Perhaps not all of us ran attain the magnetism of boundless vitality and forceful strength. But we can strive toward the expression of belief in life and the gracious sweetness of meeting each day with high hope and kind liness which Is bound to give us some of the charm we all long for. By rejoicing in each new day. by striving to make it bring to life some thing of courtesy and consideration for all who cross our paths, we will attain charm and so revive our powers and vital energies that some of the magnetism of health and strength shall be ours. too. For in the final analysis, both charm and wholesome magnetic qualities come from a fine spirit rather than from any physical form of expression. As Good ag New.

Strawberry Charlotte Have ready on large cup of sifted strawberry pulp, to which has been added one teaspoonful of lemon Juice and three-quarters of a cup of sugar. Chill for several hours in the ice box. Whip stiffly two cups-of chilled cream and add a few grains of salt and a small cup of crushed macaroon crumbs. Then heat in a spoon at a time the Btrawberry puree and pour into a melon mold lined with halved lady-fingers. Adjust the water-tight cover and bury in ice and rock salt for four hours.

Junkman—I buy empty bottles, too. mister.—New York Bun._ Impromptu Picnic If a picnic is planned in a hurry— and iiometimes these are the very nic est ones—make some sandwiches from sliced tongue from the delicatessen, using home-made whole wheat bread. Prepare a generous quantity of any fruit beverage, drawing on your sup- ^ ply of grape juice or other fruit, juices, and stop en route for a ger - erous amount of fresh fruit and boxed wafers. It will not be as good a menu as you could prepare by know ing in advance, but the children will enjoy it, and a whole day in the open will lie more than food and drink. White Woodwork.
