First-Aid for Callers.

Women who make and receive many calls during the season, and who have difficulty in remembering the dates of teas and receiving days, have found a way to save themselves from overlooking the dates of social affairs and “at home” days. They have adopted a small box made with six partitions, one for each

day of the week, and marked with the day. Into each compartment they slip visiting cards and invitations as they are received in chronological order. Each morning they go through the cards and invitations in the day’s compartment, and decide on the houses they will visit and the ones they will be forced to send cards to. They can also take a peep at to-morrow’s visiting list, and arrange their plans ahead. The visiting card box is much easier to get at than a book containing an alphabetical visiting list. Yon have the whole thing before you, and it is much simpler to slip the cards as received into their proper compartment than it is to copy down in an engagement book the date of the function and the name of the one giving it. All these little timesavers are of great value to the woman whose days are taken up with social engagements.
