Talk, but Don't
Be a Bore
To talk well is an art almost as
neglected as that of listening to the
talk of others. There are several ele
mentary principles to be, borne in
mind. .
Jf you quote a brilliant or clever re
mark of another person's, always tell
who said it Do not wear stolen jewels
of conversation. They will but make
you own paste look duller.
"It never rains out it pours;"
"every dog should have his day;" "I
think man . and woman are each de
pendent on the other," is the style of
conversation that will cause people
to flee your presence as- they would
the stagnant pool. -
Avoid all references to your own
peculiarities of taste, manner or
thought.
When you are in conversation with
one person do not let your thoughts
or gaze wander to some more inter
esting person or group.
There is far too much of that form
of rudeness. It is the habit that marks
the social climber; a fear lest he or
she may not be getting the best of
everything. ,

When Your Best Girl's Papa Says No Wait
The young man whose hopes have
been blighted by a stern parent's re
fusal to accept him as a son-in-law
is apt to say things uncomplimentary
about fathers in general. He declares
that it is absurd for a father to have
control of his daughter once she is
grown up. -..-.
There he is wrong. If it were not
for fathers having control of their
daughters many rash young people
would rush into marriage and misery.
The stern father, the enemy of the
young lover, is one of the pillars up
holding the temple of happiness. But
for him hundreds of foolish young
people would be unhappily coupled
for life. ,
When papa says, "No," the young

man should swallow his disappoint
ment, and let time prove the strength
of his love. Papa has control, for so
many years only. When she is of age
a girl can marry without the consent
of her parents if she so wishes, al
though it is neither wise nor desirable
to do so. '
Some fathers are unreasonable.
They wish a son-in-law to be a pat
tern of all the virtues. Sometimes they
want him rich. They have their whims,
have fathers. They are easily put out
and readily take dislikes to young
men sometimes because .the young
men have parents -they object to;
sometimes because a man is not their
ideal. They are as fanciful as girls
themselves.
Then the young man, with his head
full of crazy notions, his heart full of
love for his adorable one and her
father's angry words ringing in his
ears, makes up his mind to run off
and get married. He easily persuades
his fiancee, ahd they do it partly to
please themselves and partly to out
wit the stern parent, which generally
means repentance.
The sensible thing to do is to wait.
If the lady is 18, let the man wait
till she is 21. Then if both consider
that the parents' reasons for object
ing to the engagement are absurd
they may marry on their own respon
sibility.' When two persons cam wait three
years for each other there is reason
to believe that the union will not be
an unhappy one.

Asparagus Vinaigrette
By CONSTANCE CLARJUS,
This is an excellent dish for lunch
eon, or it may be served in place of
an entree. Asparagus should be
dressed as soon as possible after it
is cut, although it may be kept fori a
day or two by putting the stalks in
cold water; yet, to be good, like ev
ery other vegetable, it cannot be
cooked too' fresh. Scrape the white
part of the stems, beginning from the
head, and throw them into cold water;
then tie them into bundles, keeping
the heads all one way, and cut the
stalks evenly that they may alt be
the same' length; wrap in a niece of
1 muslin to prevent the heads from be
ing broken and put them into boil
ing water, wnh a luile salt; keep them
boiling gently until tender, with the
saucepan uncovered. When the as
paragus is done, dish it around a
toasted loaf which should be dipped
into the water the asparagus ia cooked
in. Garnish with green pepper rings
and serve. Vinaigrette Sauce Put
three tablespoons of olive oil in a
bowl with a tablespoonful of white
vinegar, a saltspoonful of pepper, a
dust of paprika pepper and a pinch of
salt Mix well together and serve in
a sauce boat

Better; or the Girl
and the Gavel
By ADA PATTERSON.
Fifteen thousand New York women
have taught New York something it
ought to know. All of America should
know it. They have shown how to
run a big convention without noise.
Under the canopy of alternate
stripes of blue bunting, one stripe
dark, the other light blue, women
from every state in the union had t
gathered. The big meeting might
have become a "Niagara of noise.
What do you think made the biennial
convention of the General Federation
of Women's Clubs a thing of order
and quiet?
In and out of the aisles and near
the doors tiptoed pretty girls. Their
eyes were bright, Their forms were
light and trim. They wore simple,
becoming frocks. They smiled. They
carried large white placards. On the
placards was printed in black letters,
"Silence." The girl, the smile and the
placard were effectual.
Had the convention been one of
men the presiding officer would have
used a gavel. A gavel looks like a
baby croquet mallet or like a hammer
with two business) ends. It is a bully
made of wood. Men use it at their
conventions to keep order. They suc
ceed, more or less, because the gavel
makes more noise than does the hu
man voice, it quells a riot by making
a riot of its owu. It is like giving a
medicine to create one disease that
will cure another.
A man who presides at a conven
tion' brings the gavel down on the
table as though he wished it were on
the head of the man who is making
the trouble. It expresses his temper.
It hurls unkind words in wooden lan
guage afthe head of the offender. It
is the cave man's club in modern form.
It is swearing de-profanized. The un
ruly man who has been ordered in this
rude way to be quiet is sullen. He
watches for another chance to get
even, to say rude things. Faced by a
pretty 'girl, in a pretty frock, holding
before him the word "Silence" he
would grin. He would sink into his
seat, and there he would stay.
Most men think they can't do any
thing well without noise. The more
noise the better the work is their
opinion. Men are the human copies
of that symbol of noise the Bull of
Bashan. They talk, they shout, they
bellow and waste their force. A man
has only a limited amount of vitality.
So much energy given out in loud
tone. much energy lost from work.
Who does the most work of all the
daily workers in a great city? The
little woman who sews. All day she
sits quietly and stitches. If she talked
she would do less sewing. The moth
er who wants to finish a dress for her
daughters graduation tells the chil
dren they must not disturb her. She
works all day without a word, and
finishes the gown. The man who is
working m the streets talks, jokes,
argues, quarrels, and wonders why
the work has enrrA it L - t
