M‘MII..LAN sotirtifrz AND SILENCE Necessary for Thinking Solitude and silence are, to my mind, both very necessary if one is to be able to think really seriously. But that I do not mean that it is necessary to turn into any kind of a hermit. but there are distinctly times when, like Greta Garbo, we want to be alone with our thoughts "Sil2n:c can be really golden after ll visit from a particularly chat- ‘tarvrig guest, who never seems even to stop to breathe. Tiii; kind of chatter is extremely exhausting and leaves us feeling limp after- wards. it is perfectly impossible ever to discuss any subject serious- ly with one of these bom chatter- crs They are rather like babbling br'ook.1 "A quiet half-hour, spent in the silence of a dimly lighted church brings it house of peace and rest- fulncss to the mind. A brief half- hotir in ti. deserted wood with trees niagiiificently arched above our heads gives a feeling of serenity and strength while a brisk walk on a bioiw (lay, with white clouds chasing ca:h other in a vivid blue sky will make its feel invigorated. The silence does not tend to make us feel lonely, and to some of us at least an escape now and then to some such sanctuary is absolutely vital to enable us to think clearly we do not feel the need for companionship at such t.mes. for Nature herself is a won- derful companion. _Unti'l you can face an afternoon ?

She is his gi-rat-aunt Owing to her age, there was no :pecial party for her but the Princess was at home" all day to her relatives The King is her favourite nep- hew it is stated, and is greatly at- tached to her. Few people know of his courteous act to this Royal old lady. Immediately on his accession he paid her a visit at Kcnslngtoii Palace. As Prince of Wales he was a frequent visitor to Kenslngton Palace. An aunt and two great aunts live there. Princess Alice, Princess Louise and Princess Beatrice. THE COFFEE PARTY The coffee party, at which 13th- century politicians foregatliered. is to be a favourite form of enterta- ining with spring hostesses (says the London Telegraph.) In place of the old-time coffee- house of a. former day, women will give these old-world parties in their own drawing-rooms or at West End restaurants. The coffee buffet is to be I fea- tum of the committee meetings. UTILITY OF GLAZED CHINTZ Glazed fabrics are especially popular. These can be relied on to keep dust at bay. Chintz and cre- tonnes are both sold in glazed qualities. For cushion covers and for “tight" chair covers, quilted glaz- ed chintz is very fashionable. If you have an up-to-date sewing- machine, you can do this quilting yourself Close-covered floors are in vogue, but it is only possible to keep them clean easily if you have an automatic cleaner. For complete comfort, especially in a house that is somewhat draughty, a close covering of car- pet or inlaid linoleum cannot be beaten. Oarpet of plal. weave in one of the fashionable “mtural" or light pastrl shades shows neither dust nor footmarks easily Beige or string colour is favoured for car- pets thir. season, since most rooms are fumlshed in light and neutral shades which make a change of hangings and cushions easy. When buying new floor iiigs, hangings and other furnishings this spring time, keep the colours as light as l>05Slbl9- Only black is really fashionable among the dark shades at the moment.

Not once in a thousand times can ll man's wife and his mother live together in peace and harmony and she has sense enough not to take any chance on the miracle happening to 1161‘ household. ‘.4 Tlicrc is no use in saying that both your money and your prospective wife are good women and that because they both love you and desire Y0“! happiness they should love each other. The things that good in-laws 0&1 do to each others are beyond belief, and love for the same man doesn't ziutoinaticzilly draw two women together. It fills them with Jealousy and causes Llicin to tear to tutters the unfortunate man over whom they fight. of course, this should not be the case. It just happens that it is, and you will save yourself a lot of trouble if you do not insist upon your wife and mother living together. Believe me, no man in the world is plliced in such a cruel position as the one who secs the twp women he loves stab- bing each other with poisoned daggers, with mean little speeches, with subtle insults, with all the l.i.;c acts with which women ‘know so well how to torture each other, and who has to arbitrate their quarrels and listen to their complaints against each other, Consider the situation dispassionateiy and you will see how littlfi chance there is of n mother-in-law and (laughter-in-law living happily to- gether. To begin with, there is you, which each of them will feet She has a right to monopolize. No woman short of a saint, can see her son absorbed in his wife and giving her his kisses, his little attentions. his first consideration without E pang of Jealousy. Nor can any woman who is not an angel view her husband turning to his mother for counsel, for help, for understanding without getting green-eyed, Then there is the constant conflict over running the home. The older woman feels thin. she should be the authority because of her years of ex- perience and her kuowierigc and skill. The younger woman feels that it is her home and she has the right to run it as she pleases, and she resents the suggestions and advice and the meddling of mother-in-law, who can- not keep her fingers out of the pie to save her life. The chances for unhappiness for both the mother-in-law and '-he dnught/.-r—in-law urc so great if they attempt, to live together that the flaky adventure should never betricd except in cases of dire necessity. Cer- tainly no womiui who is financially able to have her own home should ever force herself upon her children, because she is not only bringing I 5°’ trouble down on her own head, she is jeopardizing their marriages. Family quarrels are ugly things. They always leave wounds that never heal. Avoid this tragedy by telling your mother that you believe every young couple should start out hOLlS(.‘.(€epll‘lg by themselves, but that you will live near her where you can see her every day. In that way you will preserve the peace and your mother will be far happier, because she will have her own home that she can run as she pleases, and she and your wife will become fI‘lL‘ll(ln, as they would never be if they lived together and were contniuully on eitcli otlicrs nerves. w i. .- sot Dear Miss Dix——Ho\v can I decently end an engagenient with a. young lady? I have deliberately and politely asked for my liberty but to no avail and lltllf.‘ done my best to get her to tell me to go to the "Vale of Gchcnnn," but without results. I have rushed other girls she disliked. but it did me no good. I have done everything 1 know how to make her angry so I could nnikc my getaway, but she doesn't get visibly angry, just hurt and sad. The situation is one that calls for drastic measures and I am at my wil.'s and to know what to do. can you suggest a decent and honorable way out? FRIED. Answer: 1 should think that. the thing to do would be to just come out fiat- footctl and tell the girl in plain and unmistakable language that you do not love her, and that you do not intend to marry her now or ever, that the whole affair is washed up. Finished. Done. Inasmuch as it is difficult to tell the brutal truth in I convincing fuh. ion to one who professes to love you, I would further suggest that you put your ultimatum in writing rather than deiivcr it by word of mouth.

If you lack the backbone to act the part of a man, emulate the tactics of a baby lillili‘. Refuse to budge an inch nearer the church. Make no more dines with the youni: lady. Don't answer her telephone calls. Use passive resistance. After all, no woman, no matter how detsnninod she is, can force a mall to marry her it he puts his back up and refuses to do so. Anyway, I urge you to stand firm and not let any designing female marry you against your will. For the girl's sake as well as your own. There are no iiiorc unhappy inurriagea than those entered into by men who make ll little ncur-love that they never intend her to take seriously to a girl und who find that hey have tied a knot with their tongues that they can't nulls with their teeth, as our colored friends say. i 0 III 0 mi: CRLO’l"rE_ cit: -.---- AAAAAAAAAALA -I:-A Fashions ;-:- who doesn't olmoslr over a fra I ITS PIIFECT IIW GRIND MORE FLAVOUK NO MATTER QAETHOD OF COFFEE MAKING 7/owe//Aéwe ROASTED AND PACKED IN CANADA Just frylio find The man rani cu MAXWE L HOUS wnv oou‘r you my MAXWELL HOUSE NEXT TIME?
