' 4 FOR THE LUNCH BOX. There Is a preparation now on the market which requires but a d cup, a spoon and boillug water la order to have a refreshing and hot d beverage while traveling, or at a d picnic, or even at home, when one la harried. If tb "soluble coffee" d d Is not to be had a bottle of cottee syrup Is Just as good, and caa be.d freshly prepared at home. To make d the syrup, take half a pound of d very- arood coffee and grind It line d d (not pulvrrtsed) put It Into a per- d plats of water aad boll down to d d one plntt strain this off and put d Into another perfectly clean saucepaa, aad bring to the boiling point, d aitd as It bolls, add white sugar d d sufaclent to give It the ,consls- d tency of simple syrup when boiled a few minutes without stirring t d then take from the lire, and when d eooL put Into bottles or bottle aad d seal. When you want a refresh- d lag cup of coffee, put two tead spoonfuls of the syrup Into ordinary cup, ail with boiling water, add cream If yon like Irond densed milk Is good), and you have a good coffee with little trouble. d their wives are invited to attend. The public Is given a cordial invitation. A literary and musical program has been prepared for the evening's entertainment. THE SUCCESSFUL HOSTESS. You may have a dinner with the best appointment and cluslne, and if your guests are badly chosen the dinner will be a (social failure. Certain elements will not codiesce, and the woman who tries to force the process is courting an explosion. Choose guests as you would shoes because they fit. ' You may be catholic In your tastes and enjoy the butterfly without a brain and the woman who Is all brain without social grace, the artist or musician, the snob who distrusts all the clever cotorle, the man who loves a gay story and the woman who is easily shocked. But gather those friends around a common board and you may count on their boredom. Never seat your guests according to social position. The practice makes neither the dinner nor the hostess popular. If you pjut the socially unimportant together your entertaining will never be a success. Custom has It that those who sit on the right and left of the host and hostess may feel themselves singled out for attention, but choose for reasons. Do not give your guests a chance to gibe at you as a money worshiper or one with an axe to grind. Do not have dinners so large as to prevent general conversation. Not all who go out to dinners are blessed with manners, and the hostess should have It in her power to go to the rescue of the guest who is neglected by her neighbors. Nor should your dinners be long or heavy. The day of dozens of course is past. The most brilliant diner out finds It hard to shine when eating through an overla borate menu. Learn the art of switching the conversation. Many a dinner is wrecked because the hostess does not know how to stop an argument that is verging on controversy and has not the social sense to scent dangerous topics or sidetrack the bore. Encourage brilliancy and gayety. FAIR ADVANCE GUARD (Special to Tks Ttmeb.) Crown Point. Ind.. Aug. 13. The advance guard of the Lake county fair is beginning to reach town, race horses and special features being brought In by the carload. This year's fair promises to be more prolific In attractions than any ever held, and the concession man Is kept busy selling space on the grounds for those anticipating exhibiting.
