The lat aeven days hav proven one of
the moat delightful weeks of the sum
mer, that Is considering weather and good
time. It haa been Jut ciiol enmifth to be
Invigorating and there ha been enough
variety in amusement to bo exciting. The
largest and most eotmplcuous events of
the week were the vaudeville at the Coun
try club Tuesday evening1 and the seventh
annual Middle west tournament at the
Field club In progresa the entire week.
Then, too, the. aororlty girl have been cre
ating all manner of enjoyable parties,
swimming, hayrack ride to Florence, plc
nlca and nimiieons as well a one large
dancing party at Happy Hollow.
The Rummer days have had. a hint of
autumn In them 'recently, reminding one
that the vacation daya of the college set
are on the wane. It I always with regret
that society aeea theae young people de
part a their enthusiasm Is the life of the
summer gayety, and no social affair Is con
sidered quite complete without them.
The autumn brides will soon be attracting
attention as their numbers are legion.
Some of these nuptial will be very simply
eelebrnted and others will elaborate de
tails that are already being planned and
modistes are doing rush orders for the
completion of September,, .-and , October
trousseaux. 80 with attending weddings,
farewell parties for tlw college sets, Ak-Sar-Bcn
festivities and the horse show,
closely followed by debutante parties, the
coming season has most alluring pros
pects for the smart set. .
At Happy Hollow.

FOR LIGHT HOUSEKEEPING
Helafal Illata on What and What
' Nat to Cook aad
Of course there ar parsons prejudiced
against all tinned and preserved food, and
undoubtedly the fresh ones ar the best,
but kltchenett life becomes loo trouble
some if one tries to make fresh biscuits
and waffles and to boll hams and cabbage.
A small stock of vegetables and meat
In glass and china jars will be found very
convenient, and so will anchovy paste and
capers, pickles and tomato essence, as well
as a variety of small tins of soup.
' For kltchenett Meals It Is unwise to
attempt anything like formal aervlce, but
daintiness la absolutely neccasary, Just a
the most scrupulous, cleanliness is de
manded. Th table can be small, but th
linen must be whit and the china and
glass sparkling.
Spoons, forks and knives must b silver,
but otherwise It Is best to banish all' silver
ware, and copper as well. The things
requlr dally car - and polishing, and If
they do not get this care they suggest
neglect and It Is better to do without
them In living on a small seal.
Th blue and white Japanese china that
Is to b bought for a smsll tun Is th
prettiest for the purpose, and ther must
no: be too much of It just enough for con
venience. There ar even salt and pepper
bottles In this war now to be had. doing
away with the old troublesome cut glass
bottles with silver caps.
Som kltchenettcr carry their Idea of
picnicking o fsr that they have wooden
plates and paper napkins, but this will not
suit anyon who I at all faatldlou and
makes more wast to b disposed of.
Glass and china can be washed and linen
napkin and tablecloths are don now
aday at the laundrlea at a very low rate.
Of cours good fine linen should not be
chosen for the wear and tear of a laundry,
and lace doilies and embroideries should
b done away with altogether.
It I well to vary the kltchenett far
with occasional restaurant meals, aa other
wise th plan prove a bother. But If
car 1 uaed In buying and aelectlng the
simpler things that are put In the beat
manner and tan be cooked without too
much odor thla way of living la delightful.
One a week the Janltress may clean
out th little room and icebox and use a
spray of odorlea chloride In every nook
and corner, shine up th glass doors of the
cupboard and scald out the Icebox and
polish the faucets. Everything Is. therefore
perfectly s- eet and clean in midsummer
as In winter. Otherwise th kitchenette
plan would not be Ideal.
For Palafal Karat-he.
Take a thick slice of bread, four inohe

Illinois Woman Considers Domestic

An Illinois woman, writing In Collier's on
race suicide and conditions that lead to It.
presents one argument that haa not been
generally emphasised, but that la neverthe
lesa on of the most serious obstacles to
the rearing of large families among the
middle classe. She says;
Many women are more Interested In
bridge than In babies. Is utter selfishness,
mere frivolity, the only cause? The fact
Is that the growing unwillingness of women
to accept positions to work In homes, even
at the exorbitant salaries which they can
now command. Is working a silent revolu
tion, one result of which Is race suicide.
People cannot have large families unless
they have stable homes, and It does not
take much of a Jar to upset the equilibrium
of the modern household helper. The ad
vent of each auccesslve child Is aa a vol
canic eruption to the rtomeatlo arrange
