The French word "etiquette"- really means a "label" or "ticket" How, then, comes it to denote "conventional forms of ceremony?" It is said that a certain Scottish gar dener fn charge of Louis XIV.'s, gine den at Versailles was very much put out because the courtiers walked over his beds. To keep oft these trespassers ' he placed labels or . tickets-"eti- quettes"--at 'various spots, . with in- structions as to the proper path. At first the haughty courtiers did not deign to notice these placards, but i hint from high quarters that their walks in future must be within the "etignettes" compelled their obedience. Thus, according to the story" origi- nated our present use of the word "eds. quette. ' A newly stirred soil admits the air - to the roots, conserves moisture and prevents the growth of weeds. Every shower tends to seal up the surface and exclude the air. So aim to stir up the soil after every rain. Little More Than a Bushel.

Every housekeeper should realize that the appearance, of the maids in her house is an indication of her good taste and management. They, in a measure. set the standard of your .es- tablishment from the moment the front door is opened. It need not be a matter of expense to have them neatly and -property dressed; it is largely a matter of judgment on your part in providing thecorrect things to wear on different 'occasions and of your carefulness in seeing that everything la neat and clean. For the morning a neat percale dress of ' pale ping or blue always looks well, or one of a gray blue and white stripe. With this dress is worn a plain white apron, usually without a bib or bretelles. a white linen collar and a three cornered swiss muslin cap with a ruching around it. Before luncheon the waitress or parlormaid should change this dress for a simply made black one or one made of a pretty shade of gray. Tbese are. of course, made of some woolen material, Gray dresses are an innovation and are not so serviceable as the black. With this dress is worn a plain white Linen collar and turnover stiff linen cuffs. The apronshould be quite small and made of thin sawn, batiste, swiss or muslin or fine linen with a frill or embroidered scallop around the edge. Instead of a cap the maid may wear a bow of fine muslin or a plaited small frill on which is sewed a black ribbon' eralack velvet bow. Duties of a Hostess.. • In asking a friend to visit her the •hostess should always state clearly how long the guest is expected to stay. This makes it much simpler and 'more comfortable for all persons concealed. The guest to be knows just what lug- gage uggage to bring and how to make her plans accordingly. At the .end of the visit it is simple for the hostess, if she wishes, to ask her friend to prolong her stay. • A well bred hostess never shows that her guest's visit is a burden to her. She keeps her household duties in the background as mach as possible, nev- er consults her servants before her guests_andLnever...emlaarrasses-tter., y discussions of household finances. She makes her feel at every moment that she is a welcome addition to the house- hold and that her presence is a real pleasure. On the other hand, she is not too attentive,- leaves her friend to her- self for an hour • or two and glees her an opportunity to rest or read. She never obtrudes family troubles on her,, never corrects the servants .in her pres- ence or permits • family differences,. which often amount to quarrels unim- portant perhaps to the persons eon- cerned, but exceedingly uncomfortable Cor the visitor - 4. g isitor.A.g ed hostess is careful to make her guest comfortable.

The lone traveler will find that cour- tesy to subordinates will win her at- tention and service more quickly than the sharp, short, almost peremptory manner sometimes assumed by well meaning but.'misguided persons. It is the woman with a sense of hu- mor who gets the most out of a jour- ney, while the woman who is given to worrying over trifles cannot enjoy the finest trip that ever was planned. Good Breeding on 'Tennis Court. Good breeding clearly shows itself while on the tennis court If a man has a woman for a partner and it is her serve, be should pick utt and hand. her the balls before each service if no attendant is about. Be should also second her more carefully than if she were a man and take charge of the extra balls for her. If a man's opponent is a woman he should consider her by recognizing her lesser strength and serve gently. In double service a man should not serve the Second ball until the woman has recovered her position from pur- suing the first. The choice of racket8 should be the woman's, and any work, Such as putting up the nets, hunting the lost ball, and so on, is done by the man. Nothing 1n a Name. "Look here, waiter," said Me.

This authority as- serts it is one of the most injurious practices of which be has knowledge and insists red noses are the result of veils and nothing else, If there is any- thing a woman objects to it is a red or greasy nose, and these troubles, ac- cording to this physician, find their origin in the wearing 'et a veil on al- most every occasion. The veil pre- vents the air striking the .face as it would if the veil Was oft. and when. the face is heated the nose becomes greasy and almost invarlably has a reddish appearance.

Sloppy, leaky wooden troughs, or clean, durable Concrete ? Wooden drinking troughs are about as 'reliable as the weather. They are short-lived and require re- placing every few years—tot to mention continual patching to keep them in repair. The best of wood cannot withstand, for long, constant dampness and soaking. Its tendency to rapid decay soon shows itself in leaks and stagnant pools of water around trough. Conkitist with this the durability, cleanliness and well -ordered appearance of Concrete. The dampness which destroys lumber only intensifies the strength and hardness of Concrete. You can impair a wooden trough with comparatively little . use; but it takes .a powerful explosive to put a Concrete water tank out of business. Which is your .choice—expense-producing Wood, or money -saving Concrete? We'd be glad to send a copy of our book, "What the Farmer Can. Do With Concrete,"----Free--if you'll ask for it.
