Fruit and Vegetables Attractive Autumn Dinner Decorations Fruits and vegetables, iiutead of flowers, should be the deroradn for fall dinner tables. For instance, the centerpiece could be a shapely pumpkin, the outride of which must be mashed and rub I" 1 until It shines. Ths top should be taken i ff to form a hole four or six tnches laruc Then, with a strong spoon, the seeds must be removed, and in this- way the pumpkin becomes a dish for fruits. If tha edge of the top is scalloped the ef fect Is prettier. To fill ths pumpkin apples and a couple of oranges ars first put tn, than two or three "lady" apples give a touch of blight eoiiw. Grapes, both Tokay and white, must be used to fill crevices. Much ad.titional beauty Is given if bunches of grapes are draped on the outside, this being dona easily by suspending them f.-un ths top edge. To hold the bunches in place pieces of steel wire may be bent to serve I as hooks, and tiny pieces of string may be tied to the grapes to fjrm loops. Elaboration Is given to the pumpkin by cutting out strips of It lengthways, so the fruits show through all ths way down. Raw cranberries ars not used as much r What Should a Woman Spend for Board? The way each person shall live is such an elastic subject that every one must decide It for hersetf In tha last analyela.

But here a woman meets an a. must unan swerable proposition, for what Is essential to on woman would be th height of luxury for another.
