She hadn't eneryg enough {0 caper before them, to smile bland- ly at Juanita"s rudeness. Not today. But she did want a party. Now! If some one would come in this afte:- noon, some one who Hked her--Vida er Mrs. Sam Clark or "old Mrs. Champ Perrys or gentle Mrs. Dr. Westlake, Or Guy Pollock! She'd telephone-- No. That wouldn't be it. They must come of themselves. Perhaps they would. ' Why not? She'd have tea ready, enyway. If thoy ecame--splendid, It not--what did sho care? She wasn't going to yield to the village and let down; she was going to keep up a belief in the rite of tea, to which she had always looked forward as the symbol of a leisurely fine existence. And it would be just as much fun, even if it was so babyish, 0 have tea by just herselr and pretend that she was entertara- ing clever men. It would! She turned the shining thought into aption. She bustled to the ki'- chen, stoked the wood-range, sang Schumann while she boiled the ket- newspapér spread on the rack in' the ovon. She scampered upstairs to bring down her filmiest 'ea-cloth. She arranged a silver tray. She proudly carried it into the lving- MAIN STREET | The Story of Carol Kennicott By SINCLAIR LEWIS ginning! She conceived so clear a picture of their bending over large fair pages by the fire (in a non-exist- ent fireplace) that the spectral pres- ences slipped away. Doors no longer moved; curtains wore not creeping shadows but lovely dark, masses in the dusk; end when Bea came home Carol was singing at the piano whica she had not fouched for many days. Thedr supper was the feast of two girls. Carol was in the dining-room, in a frock, of black satin edged wi'h gold, and Bea, in Blue gingham and an apron, dined in the kitchen; bat the door was open between, and Carol was inquiring "Did you see any ducks in Dahl's window?" and Bea chani- ing, "No, ma'am.

A friend suggested I try Milhurn's Heart and Nerve Pills, so I procured three boxes, and by the time the first one was used I began to fmprove.

When Carol sat at the plano again she did not think of her husband bux of the book~drugged hermit, Guy Pol- lock. She wished that Pollock would come calling. "If a girl really kissed Bm, he'd creep out of his den and be human. If Will were as li'erate as Guy, or Guy were as Guy as executive as Will. I think I could endure even Gopher Prairie.

But to have him wood tbale, pushing aside a hoop of embroidery, a volume of Conrad from the library, copies of the Saturday Evening Pos:, the Literary Digest, and Kennicott's National Georgraphic Magazine. ~ She moyed the tray back and forth and regarded the effect. She shook her head. She busily unfolded se sewing-table, set it in the bay-win- dow, patted the tea-cloth to smoofa- | ness, moved the tray. "Some ime 1'll have a mahogany tea-table," she sa:d happily. 8hé had brought in two cups, two plates. For herself, a straight chair, but for the guest the big wing-chair, which she pantingly tugged to the table. She had finished all the prepara tions she could think of. She sat and waited. She listened for the door-bell, the tesephone. Her eagerness was stilled. Her hands droped. Surely Vida Sherwin would hear the summons. She glanced through the bay-win- dow. Snow was sifting over the ridga of the Howland house like sprays of water from a hose. The wide yards across the street were gray with ed- dies. The black trees shivered. The roadway was gashed with ruts of ice, She looked at the extra cup aud plate. She looked at the wing-chalr, It 'was so empty. The tea was oold in the pot. With wearily dipping finger-tip she tested ft. Yes. Quite cold. She couldn't wait any longer. The cup across from her was icily clean, glisteningly empty. Simply absurd to wait. She pour- ed her own cup of tea. She sat and What was it she was going to do now? Oh yes; how 'di~ otic; take a lump of sugar. She didn't want the beastly tea. She was springing up. She was on the couch, sobbing. " II Bhe was thinking more sharply than she had for weeks. She reverted to her resolution te change the town--awaken it, prod it, "reform" it. What #f they were wol- ves instead of lambs? "They'd ear uer all tha sooner if she was meek to them, Fight or be eaten. I: was eas- fer to change the town completely than to conciliate if! She could no: take their point of view; it was a negative thing; an intellectual squat- or; a swamp of prejudices and fears. She would have to make them take hers. She was pot a Vincent de Paul, to govern and mold a people. What of that? The tintest change in thew distrust of beauty would be the be- ginning of the end; a seed to eprout and some day with thickening roots to erack their wall of mediocrity, If she could not, as she desired, do a great thing nobly and with laughter. {yet she need not be conten wi'h vil lages mothingness.

During these winter months, there are sure to be many parties for young people of all ages, from the primary to the graduating class, and the following suggestion may prove helpful in planning these festivities. An alphabet party for youngsters from eight to twelve is always voted a success. In the invitation each child is given a letter which is part of a word of four letters and the completed word decides the partners for a game table. After the guests arrive, the words are spelled and the children who hold the letters of each word come forward to the table des- ignated. The tables have numbers. Each table has a different game, which is played fifteen minutes, then the living words change tables. The party is arranged for from three to six or from eight to eleven o'clock, according to convenience. Refreshments may take the form of an early supper or be served in the usual manner. After 'the seated games, an old- fashioned spelling match is in order. For this, two first and two hooby prizes are provided. If there is still returning from Lac-qui-Meurt, * fait] nights and the walls of Bagdad, of in| One seed. .

A few flowers are all the decora- tions needed, except about the table. For the supper, cover the table with white crepe paper with a border of large letters of the alphabet in gay colors. In the centre of the table, use a Jack Horner ple in the shape of a Noah's Ark. Paper animals cir- cled around outside are each attach- ed with a ribbon to the favor inside, and the youngsters spell their ani. mals and pull out the prizes. Chick- en boullion; chicken croquettes, peas|. and creamed potatoes, fruit salad, ice cream, cake and cocoa are suffi- cient for supper. For evening re- freshments, cocoa and sandwiches of various kinds, with ice cream and cake will be sufficient. With a good leader to keep things moving, this makes an excellent entertainment. "Juniors" are a bit more difficult to plan for becausy they at at the age which wishes to appear grown- up and hence must be nandled with infinite tact. A small and early dancing party lasting from 8 to 1° is a popular choice. It order to make it a bit "different", call this a and abnounce in the invitation that it will be a pantomime party until 10 o'clock. Black and white costumes, paper or muslin, with little black masks and pointed caps, are inex- pensive and attractive and may be worn all evening. " Black and white decorations and foods help carry out the coior scheme. A black and white paper table may bave for a centrepiece, a black paper pirate ship with white salls and a cargo of favors. A sil- houette artist who will cut® each Jill's picture for her Jack makes the souvenirs a lasting pleasure, As for the black and white menu, it may be accomplished by serving the food in white paper cases on black service- plates. Another idea for young people of the "junior" age.is a fNlower-garden party. Each girl is asked to cone as a paper flower and the boys dress as gardeners. . The decorations for this party should be entirely of gar- lands and vines, hedges and p.godas of rustic paper trellis-work. Every- thing should be planned to make the house as like a garden as possible in order to show off the flowers. Fay- or dances, with wee rakes, hoes, wat- ering-pots and barrows, cause much merriment, : The invitations are written on brown paper flower-pots. Deside each plate a wee potted plant bears the place-card. Tha table may be covered with brown crepe paper. In the centre use a pyramid of potted hyacinths in all eolors, the pots con- cealed with moss or smilax, Suppér or refreshments nay de either simple or elaborate, 'but sweets and fancy foods should pre- dominate. Marzepan garden vege tables may be used for the bonbonms. Garaish the dishes with colorful BA nishes..
