) THE CHABLOTTE EViamTO (gBONTGLE, THU3BP.&Y, SEPTEMBER 7,. 1911.' IK p 9 I Sfti' EH m Yes, we are going to get ' out somewhere at least twice a week. Sometimes we'll go calling, and sometimes we'll go to Church or to a concert or lecture or to the theatre. But wherever we go, we're surely go ing somewhere together at least twice a week, and maybe more. We made that our wedding anniversary resolution. You know we had been married so vent years last Wednes day." The lady who announced that de termination, is one of the brightest little women in our neighborhood. She has two children to whom she is devoted. One is four, and the other .six years old. I "You see," she went on in explan ation. "Harry and I got to talking : things over the other night, and we Just decided that we had slipped into 'a rut. When the children were lit- tle babies, of course we couldn't go out very much. But now that they are older and we have a very trust ' worthy maid, there really isn't any ireason on earth why we shouldn't go "out more and yet we are so in the habit of staying in that T don't Re lieve we go out anywhere together once in two weeks. Harry plays with the children until they go to bed, and then reads the newspapers, ' and the magazines, and I read or sew, and half the time we go to bed at nine or half past. "On our anniversary, some friends of ours whom we visited on our hon eymoon, invited us to go to dinner and the theatre with them and we idid enjoy it so much that when we got home we sat down and talked It all over and we made up our minds that we had gotten into a rut, HOME mLKvS IB B ZPIB Simple Talks on Health. High Level mO get the most out of life, both In achievement and enjoyment, one needs to live at the highest level. This does not necessarily mean living at high tension or high pressure. In fact, one cannot live at the highest level without having efficient physical machinery and efficient mental machinery and when one is living at high pressure, one is not always meet efficient. Living at hljgh level means using the best of one's self, not the lowest, or the least. High level living is a condition of growth. This Is the healthy condition and the happy condition, tor happiness Is a oonaequenee of health and right achievement. If we live at a low level, that la, if we drudge along doing lust as little as possible, we deaden every faculty for thought and high feeling. We make drudgery of life. We sink into a rut, and we become content to stay in that rut. Life becomes circumscribed. Sometimes we sink to this low level of Irving because out physical ma chinery is out of order. Flabby muscles are often the chasm between willing and doing. To some ezient, we tread in a circle. We live at the low level because we lack energy to rise. And we lack energy to rise because we live at this low level. For living at a low level brings stagnation. . Our blood flows sluggishly. Our mind is inactive. Our physical and mental machinery is clogged. One, then, must make the break to get out of this endless circle, this treadmill of existence. One must get above these miasmatic lowlands of Hfe. A sound body is the foundation upon which to build upward. With a good body to stand upon, the highest levels can be reached. And a sound body is not such a difficult matter to acquire, If one will go earnestly about getting it or keeping it. Obedience to certain simple laws of health will keep the body in trim,- right food, sufficient exercise, fresh air, rest, recreation. Most people break or neglect all these laws. Their energy drops below par, and they too, drop to a low level of living. And work and life become monotonous drudgery. If a person is sound physically and still lives at a low level, he is suffering from mental inertia. He probably doesn't realise what high level living means. He doesn't -glimpse its joys, its exhilarations. He- should wake up. He should put himself in touch with others who live the larger life, and thus he will come to see how worth while high level living Is. And high level living is for all. It isn't only for the professional man or the man of leisure. Every one should lire at his highest level, the HMle shop girl, the clerk, the business man, the mother. Children grow away from a mother who herself does not grow and keep her life vivid. Living at the highest level means dwelling on the mountain tops of life where one sees life in Its fulness on all sides. It Is decidedly worth while. And many of us have unsuspected levels in us to which we can jet climb. " f i . i To Make Women More Shapely and Comfortable is the mission of Mme. La Burt, the New Yerk La G-recque expert corsetiere who will, beginning next Monday, advise each woman who may call on her as to the proper model for her particular figure. Her expert knowledge is invaluable to you inf MS lecting a corset that will ure and give you style For .one week beginning next Monday. PURCELL'S CHATS 'NEATH :THE: NIGHT LAMP By RUTH CAMERON and we ought to get out of it. "We think we owe it both to our selves and the children to keep alive and young and in touch with things, and we can't do that If we sit down and stare at a book or each other every night. 1 "Harry works hard, but not so hand that he needs to drop into a chair and doze or read all the even ing, and 1 he says he felt better and more alive the day after our little 'spree' than he had for weeks. "So we're just going to drive our selves out. We're going to look up some of the friends we lost sight of when we were so tied down by- the babies, and we're going to take in a good play or concert or lecture oc casionally, and we're going to take some part in our Church life, and we're just going to get out of this married folks rut. "I know it may come a little hard at first we've vegetated so long, but I'm sure we'll enjoy ourselves and everything else better, once we get thoroughly waked up, and I think, too, that when our children get old enough to want to be friends with us, we'll be better able to be friends with them than if they kept on veg etating the way we are." Does the lady's resolution appeal to you? I must say that it does to me, and that I know more than one married couple who would benefit themselves and future generations, by making and keeping a similar one. Va IB 0"VJ Living. most improve your fig and comfort. yaA.. .7- HOUSEHOLD Chloride of lime as a disinfectant is in valuable, especially on humid days in summer. Spr inkle it about the cellar floor if there is any evidence of dampness. It is advisable to sprinkle a little daily in the garbage can. To make m us room simples, peel and trim some large, flat mushrooms; lay them on rounds of buttered toast, place a lump of butter on each, pepper and salt, grill or bake till cooked through. Serve hot with good savory gravy. A delicious and nourishing hot weather drink is a fruit eggnog. Beat up a raw egg well and then add half a cupful of any fruit juice. Beat hard and then add gradualy, still beating, half a cupful of cream. Serve immediately. For a good silver polish, take half a pound of whiting and mix with two ounces of turpentine, one tablespoonful of ammonia and halt an ounce of cam phor. Apply to silver with . a Canton flannel cloth; let dry and polish with chamois- Cold baked beans may be used as a sandwich Ailing or a salad. If for sand wiches, r mash them and season highly with tomato sauce catsup or chili sauce. For a salad, a plain French dressing is best. Garnish with tomato and serve on lettuce. If in making a salpicoh of fresh fruit the diced fruit is sweetened to taste and then put into a mold or pail and packed in ice and salt for an hour or two, the dessert will be 'found especially pleasing. The fruit, partly frozen, is very refresh ing on a hot day. A substitute for aspic Jelly is quickly made. Get a can of the consomme or bouillon and prepare it as for serving hot, adding enough gelatin to make it the desired consistency. Then it may be easily molded by itself or with poultry or meat as one desires. Before washing silk stockings they should be soaked in cold water for one half hour, and then washed in luke-warm water with gd white soap. Common laundry soap should not be used, nor should the stockings be ironed, as heat is apt to crack silk. Peaches are delcfous served with ice cream. Make a plain vanilla cream. "When frozen, line a melon mold with the cream and fill the centre with the peaches cut into small pieces and well sweetened. Cover 'with the cream and then pack in salt and ice for an hour or two. When boiling a pudding in a cloth, first wring the pudding cloth out in boiling water and then, spreading it over a bowl, dredge it well with flour, flouring it well again near the opening, after the pud ding is tied. This will prevent the bag's contents becoming water-soaked. It is a decided economy to stuff sweet green peppers with a forcemeat made of left-over meat or fish. The forcemeat may be mixed with a cream sauce or a little tomato sauce. If the peppers are set into custard cups or muffin rings while being baked, there will be no dan ger of their falling over to one side, thus spoiling their appearance. To recurl an ostrich feather have a tea kettleful of beHltng water and shake the feather vigorously through the escaping steam, being oarefol not to get it too damp. Xext, take a silver fruit knife and beginning with the feathers nearest theraill take a small bunch between the thumb and forefinger and draw it gently over the blade of the knife. oooooooooroooooooo o o FASHION FAD& o o OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOJOO Skirt hems of velvet, fashionable. are immensely Three-piece suits of serge are In gresvt favor.
