If you have run the gamut of card parties, luncheons, charades, tableaux vlvants, rainbow sociables and the like and are in search of the novel and amusing an alphabet supper can be recommended with perfect safety as it is in its line one of the funniest as well as the cheapest of affairs. The idea is to serve only those dishes that come to you in turn of letters in the alphabet. For instance, a number of friends join together for mutual amusement during the winter. The first one who gives an afiair serves only such things to eat as begin with

UA,"

with "B," and so On until the alphabet has been used up a* far as the number of parties given will allow. If you think

Highest of all in Leavening Power*—TJ. S. GoVt Report, Aug- *7»

for a moment the humorous possibilities of such a bill of fare are certain to represent themselves, and a conglomeration can be served strictly carrying out the idea of the letter, yet which will be as ridiculous as possible. With "A" apples, almonds and auchovies are among the delicacies, while "B," presents greater possibilities with beans, bread, bisque and other refreshments beginning with the second letter. It looks simple, but the ingenuity of a hostess sometimes has to be exerted to the utmost to serve a palatable meal which, at the same time, strictly fulfills the law laid down regarding her especial initial. The element of surprise in the matter is no small or unimportant item, as the guests do not know what strange dish may beset before them. An epicure might object to this extraordinary mode of catering, yet, as an innovation, it has its advantage over many other forms of amusements that may be more elegant, but not one-half as original.

This is Meanl for You.

It has been truly said that half the world does not know how the other half lives. Comparatively few of us have perfect health, owing to the impute condition of our blood. But we rub along from day to day, with scarcely a thought, unless forced to our attention, of the thousands all about us who are suffering from scrofula, salt rheum and other serious blood disorders, and whoso agonies can only be imagined. The marked success of Hood's Sarsaparilla for these troubles, as shown in our advertising columns frequently, certainly seems to justify urging the use of this excellent medicine by all who know that their blood Is disordered. Every claim i/i behalf of Hood's Sarsaparilla is fully backed up b^ what the medicine has done and is still doing, and when its proprietors urge its merits and its use upon all who suffer from impure blood, in great or small degree, they certainly mean to include you.
