Many Moliner3 are planning to attend the Moiine club masquerade at the club rooms next Friday evening, but are in a quandary as to what to "rig up" in, and a masquerade Is not half the success when only few go in costume as it is when a large number mask. A few suggestions to the doubtful may help some. Even though Folly, the Queen of Hearts, Germans, Italians, gypsies, clowns and school-girls are always present, they are good "make-ups" nevertheless.

Social Progress. Dr. LOVE. There are no days like the good old days, The days when we were youthful, When humankind were pure of mind. And speech and deeds were truthful; Before a love for sordid gold Became man's ruling passion, And before each dame and maid became Slaves to the tyrant Fashion.

There are no giri3 like the good old girl3 Against the world I'd stake 'em, As buxom and smart and clean of heart As the Lord knew how to make 'em. They were rich in spirit and common sense. And piety all supportin'; They could bake and brew, and had taught school, too, And they made such likely courtin'. There are no boys like the good old boys When we were boys together. When the grass was sweet to the brown bare feet That dimpled the laughing heather; When peewee sang to the summer dawn Of the bee in the billowy clover.

Or down by the mill the whip-poor-will Echoed his night song over. There is no love like the good old love The love that mother gave us. We are old, old- men, yet we pine again For that precious grace God save us. So we dream and dream of the good old times And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder. As those dear old dreams bring soothing gleams Of Heaven away off yonder.

A butterfly costume is handsome and is especially pretty made of white tarleton with gilded and painted wings.
