The members and frif nils of the iramrnoml Woman's club wern treated to one of the most unusual and pleasing programs of tho year when Mrs. Kathryn Sharrer, and her committee "called the old times back." The subject of the day was "Auld Lang Syne," and the committer' and those who took part on the program were in colonial costume. The first number was given by Master Cyrus Campbell, aged three years. Ho was in patriotic dress, carried a largo flag and completely v.on the hearts of his audience by his singing of "The Grand Old Flag." Mrs. Smith read "Court in by Firelight," telling flow people courted in the olden times, and Mrs. liornberger sang to guitar accompaniment, "My Grandmother's Advice." The hall was then darkened and a red light thrown on the stage which was furnished to represent a colonial room, containing lire-place, spinning wheel, etc. Three tableaux were given Here. The first represented a home scene, with colonial dame, colored mammy, and children. The second showed three Quaker women spinning, and the third was a scene between I'riscilla and John A Men. After this Mrs. Johnston, whose voice has never been heard to better advantage, sang "Why do Summer Hoses Fade," and as an encore, "Annie Laurie." Then came one of the most unique numbers on the program, a minuet dance by Mesdames Sharrcr, -Itelter, Kingwill, Smith, Olwi-i, Mack, Atkinson ami Johnston. The beautiful colonial costumes were here shown to good advantage and the ladies were congratulated on the ease with which they went through the stately and graceful dance. After the program, the colonial dames served their guests with tea and honey cakes, and tints coucluded a most delightful recalling of the "memory of by-gone days." o "Mrs. Poach, the soloist, selected her numbers with excellent judgment, and her responses to the encore which were hearty and continued, proved her suavity of manner and her musical training as well. Her voice was sweet and in the numbers which she sang, she delighted the whole audience." Elkhart Review. Mrs. J. Weinand and sons, Frank and Js'iok, and.

"A nasty trick was played on a bachelor friend of mine at a dance. A lady was reproaching him for never having married, when her husband, a little bored, perhaps, said gruffly: " 'He says he could have cut me out and married you if he wanted to. "The lady started. -Indeed!' she cried. 'Why didn't he do it, then?' " 'He says he owed me a grudge,' the husband explained with a chuckle." Palace of Sweets CANDIES AND ICE CREAM

Woman's World Why Some Girls Are Awkward. How to Retain a Husband's Confidence In Business Matters Some Little Things That Count :: :: ::

"Isn't Henrietta awkward I" "Yes. Her mother believed children should be seen and not heard, so she used to make Henrietta sit still in a chair for hours at a time, with her hands primly folded and not a word or a sign out of her, while she, the mother, paid calls or entertained her company. The result is that when Henrietta was unglued from her chair and put into long dresses, lo and behold, she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet, let alone the fact that she was speechless on most occasions. Poor child, she is the victim of a mother with old fashioned educational notions!" "Well, but speaking of awkward girls, what about Mary Jones? Mrs. Jones is one of the most brilliant women I know. What is the matter with Mary? "Completely overshadowed by her mother. Oh, yes, I hear you say: 'But Mrs. Jones has done her best to bring Mary forward. She has never tied her to a chair and told her to be quiet.' That Is true, but whenever they go out together, in spite of Mrs. Jones' efforts to make 'my little girl,' as she calls her, popular it is always the mother who Is the center of attraction. You see, she Is always telling some funny story or making some brilliant epigram, so that Mary's feeble efforts are quite overshadowed. If Mrs. Jones could glitter less, so to speak, poor Mary might have some chance, but as it is" "And Sallie White, who bumps into everything. What is the secret of her awkwardness ?" "Absentmindedness. Sallie Is in the clouds half the time. When she Is WHO BUMPS rNTO EVEKTTHISO. making pies she is thinking about her new gown, and when she is trying on her new gown ten to one her mind Is on her pies. If she could only think pie while she made pie or gown when she sewed gown there would be some thing to her. Vulgarly speaking, Sallie is not 'on to her job.' Break vases. tread on people's toes, bump into ev ery thing? Why not? So would you if your mind were off woolgathering in Timbuktu or Afghanistan. Let Sallie come to earth and I promise you she won't be awkward any more." An Honest Confession. "Mv husband used to tell me all his business affairs until one day he con tided he had lost money in a certain deal and I reproached him. He has never told me a thing since, and I would give almost all I have to be on the old footing of comradeship with, him again," said a woman recently. "I tell you what, if you want to be chums with your husband you must adopt his point of view, the way a man would, and stop thinking of your own woman's Interests. I was selfish, and I have had to pay the price. I am now left out entirely from the most Important part of his life, and, looking back on it all, I say it serves me right" Worth Considering. "It is the little thing3 which count in friendship and don't you forget it," said the woman who knew. "Calling up on the telephone is one of them, sending notes without delay is another, returning things the moment you are through with them is yet a third, while if you are busy traveling and have no time to write how easy it is to send a picture post card and what pleasure It gives the home people! "The woman who waits until she can give a grand party has few friends. It is Jhe little lady who invites you to drop in all the time and enjoy the little things of life with her every day who has a long list of admirers and wellwishers." MAUD ROBINSON. Cynical Observations A friend may forgive, but a lover never does. There never was a married woman who sympathized with an old bachelor, and there never wa3 a married man who didn't,
