Visiting Nurses' Annual Meeting.
Tfie Visiting Nurse association, one
of Portland's largest and most pro
gressive social agencies, held its an
nual meeting yesterday afternoon with
a large attendance.'. Mrs. Robert Dieck,
president, was In the chair and gave a
comprehensive report of the past
year's work. She laid special stress on
.the constant growth of the work and
the many needs that the organization
" will be asked to fill within the next
few years with great numbers ol for
elgners coming to this section.
Miss Emma Grlttlnger, superintend
ent of the nurses, gave a most lnter
eting report, which showed that 7337
- general visits had been made during
the past year, which is more than
double the number made the previous
year. It- was reported that 1500 had

Beauty Hint. i
The "floor dive." which Is an excel
' lent exercise for reducing the hips
nd for general dally exercise of the
waist and arms, consists In extend
ing the hands as high as possible
above the head and then without re
laxing them and while holding the
knees rigid, bending to touch the
floor. Practice enables one to per
form this exercise quite rapidly, thus
accelerating the breathing and the cir
culation. "Elisabeth aad Mn Garden."
Elisabeth is starting a souvenir
garden.
One friend will give to her a bridge;
another will contribute a tree; one
will donate a tail boat for the tiny
Ihke which is to occupy the central
space in the garden; another has vol
unteered to send a summer-house for
the knoll. Water fowl will be sot
afloat upon the margins of the lake
by other friends who wish to write
their names upon the souvenir ''land
scape, and quaint statues, representa
tive of the good will of other friends,
will adorn secluded nooks designed
for cooing lovers. I
When all bave added to the plan
whatever of beauty suggests Itself,
mill not this prove a souvenir worthy
of long treasuring?
A very large consignment, say you?
Not so at all-
You see, the bridges cost but a few
cents apiece. Imposing though they
seem, and the summer-houses, how
ever artistic their form, are equally
inexpensive, 'and it is the same
' throughout the list of -garden beauty
lnaktng objects.
Do you begin to understand? Tes.
That's It. It is one of those wee gar-
Upiis of Japan. You see them in the
oriental shops and the variety of com
Dosltlon which can be wrought in
them is practically without limit.
Is not Elizabeth's plan an Interest
lng one? Far- ahead of autograph
albums or souvenir postal cards, and
the cost is scarcely more, you see.
For Summer Hangings.
A wonderful array of gay and dainty
prints In plain and crepe-like ma
terials is on sale at a big up-town
shops for a few rents a yard. All sorts
of possibilities are suggested by these
piles of fresh, new prints, and dozens
of yards are being picked up by pru
dent buyers for hangings for beach
and mountain cottages. At the prices
asked one can hardly expect the colors
to bedfast, so it is suggested that all
' purchases be dipped into a gallon of
boiling water to which an ounce of
acetic acid has been added. After
thoroughly saturating the material
hang It across a pole over the bath
tub and let drip for a couple of days.
, If care Is taken in keeping the ma
terial folded very little or no pressing
is necessary.

Beets in How Style.
Some people who have never cared
for beets think they are fine prepared
In this original way:. Take six ordi
nary sized beets,, scrape off skins and
cut into small dice. Boll until tender,
having enough water left to cover
them. Season with salt, pepper,
lump of butter else of walnut and
tabiespoonful of sugar. Add about
two tablespoonfuls vinegar and boil a
little longer, then thicken with flour
in water as for gravy, be careful not
to make too thick. This covers the
beets with a rich red sauce. They are
tnen ready to serve- as a vegetable.
Bulgarian Wall Covering.
Bulgarian colors and designs instead
of being ou the wane are invading the
sacred precincts of the wall paper
house, and In that' exclusive little
Broadway shop 1 was shown recently
what is termed a "Bulgarian cloth"
paper that so closely resembled rag
carpet of the hit and miss variety that
I rubbed my eyes and looked a second
time to see ir it really was paper. The
colors are not brilliant, as we usually
imna oi Bulgarian nues, but are in
stead softly toned. A marvelously at
tractive ana ingenious frieze of con
ventional design and hand blended col
or makes this paper complete. No
more restful and satisfying wall cover-.
ing could be imagined than this new
-tiuigarian cloth," and . besides it is
an admirable background for pictures.

PAYING HER WAY
. f i .
By Jessie Roberts. . I
borne time ago I printed a letter
from a girl raising the Question as to
whether or not most girls who were
self-supporting preferred to pay their
own way when going out with their
men friends. In this week's mail there
is another letter on the same subject
which comes out strongly for inde
pendence in the matter. Here are some
portions, for it Is 'too long to give en
tire:
"I was surprised to see exactly what
I think myself in the letter signed
Rose W. There are certainly many
girls who wonder what to do when
asked to go out by their men friends.
I know I do when I am asked to go
to the theater or a dinner by a man
when I can afford better than he to
pay the expenses. Yet I dare not
offer to pay my share, because I am
afraid of hurting his feelings. And
I do not want to refuse to go. and so
make him think I do not care tor his
society.
It seems to be a matter of habit and
tradition, and I believe thiav habit
, could soon be changed, to the great

Jumper' the Hare Consults fluster
Bear. -.
Jumper the Hare was sitting under
a low growing hemlock ' tree deep in
the Green Forest, where he' could look
out over the pond of Paddy the Beaver.
Jumper was "not feelingr at .all good
that morning. No, sir, Jumper was
feeling anything but good,. In the sec
ond place, he couldn't rest easily a
minute even with his eyes wide open.
All the time he felt as if his heart
might Jump right up in his. throat any
minute. And it was all because Reddy
Fox hrfd set out to catch him, and
gave hinl no peace night or day.
Old Mother Nature certainly takes
better care of some than; she does of
others,'" thought Jumper Just a wee
bit bitterly, as he watched Paddy the
Beaver swimming about in his pond.
'Now. there Is Faddy perfectly safe
out there in the waterand here am, I
not. safe anywhere.. It. isn't fair.-' It
certainly isn't fair."
Then Jumper looked and listened
anxiously for the least sign of Reddy
Fox.. But all was quiet, and once more
he began to think about the unfairness
of Old Mother Nature. Now, that isn't
a bit; like Jumper the Hare. - Jumper is
almost as nappygo-iucay aa rmier
Rabbit and takes things just as they
come. It wasn't long before he began
to feel a little ashamed of himself lor
having such thoughts. He thought of
those long legs Old Mother Nature had
given him to take him quickly out of
danger, and then he remembered how
Paddy the Beaver has to get. nis rooa
on shore, or most of It, anyway, and
bow slow and clumsy Faaay is outoi
the water. The 'more be thought of
this the more ashamed he4jrew of the
thoughts he had had of Old tfothtr Nature's-
seeming unfairness, and pretty
soon he knew right down in his heart
that he wouldn't change places with
Paddy the Beaver if he could, not even
to get rid of Reddy Fox.
He was still thinking or this wnen a
stick snapped a little way from him
and his heart gave a great frightened
thump. You see. he nao grown so
anxious and nervous that whenever he
heard a stick snap or a leaf rustle he
was sure it was Reddy Fox trying 'to
steal up on - him. Jumper held bis
breath and looked in the direction from
which the sound had come. There,
shuffling along and muttering to him
self, was Buster Bear, jumper gnnnea.
It was a very great relief to see Bus
ter Bear Instead of Reddy Fox. You
see. Jumper isn't the least bit afraid of
Buster, because he knows that he can
keep out of his way. Buster knows it.
too, and so he wastes no time trying
to catch Jumper. So they are very good
advantage of both . the men and the
girls. ,
First of all, the girl would be more
independent. I like Independence and
I do not like to feel that I owe any
one anything. Often, too, a girl could
suggest an outing if it were under
stood that she was to4&y her own ex
penses. ' " "
On the other -hand, the man could
not think then, as I know men often
do. "She goes out with, me simply be
cause I do the treating." He would
Irnnv vmi went because vou enlovad
his society; for certainly, when you.
paid your own way you would not
go out with him If you did not like
him. '
The young man, having less of a
burden if the girl paid her own ex
penses, would surely ask her oftener;

Jumper hopped out and sat up in
front of Buster Bear. Buster sat up,
too. - Very funny they looked as they
faced each other, one so very big and
one so small, .and. both sitting up In
Just the same way. Paddy the Beaver
had to laugh as he looked across at
them. ' -
"Hello. Buster!" said Jumper. "How
do you like the Green Forest?"
Buster's little eyes twinkled as ne

such a nice piece as the Green Forest"
Buster shook his head as if he didn't
understand It at all.
"It's all your fault!" cried Jumper,
Buster Bear looked puzled. "How la
It m"y fault T' he demanded.
Then Jumper told him the whole
story, how he bad been sent to Invite
Buster to meet the other little people
of the Green Forest, how Reddy vox
had tried to catch him and then had
been terribly frightened by the sudden
annearance of Buster and had run.
and then how he (Jumper) had ruuJ
after him iust for fun. and how all
the little people were making fun of
Reddy now, so that he was spending
all his time trying to catch Jumper so
as to get even. Buster's eyes twinkled
more than ever as he listened. .
"Perhaps I can help you" said he.
"Oh. will you? That would be per
fectly splendid!" cried Jumper.

and so both of them could get much
more fun together, and on a better
basis.
The hardest part of the business Is
to get the habit of It, but that would
come in good time. For there is real
ly no reason why the men should do
the treating all the time, and it is for
us girls to get together and down
the old prejudice and establish a more
sensible and honest custom. Sincerely

The bonds were voted by the city of

cities with 3000 population or ever au

charters so as to authorise them to

In the case, which was brought by E.
