RICHARDSON, LIFE'S Advertising Manager, 17 W. 31st Street, New York PICTURE PUZZLE PARTIES promise to be a popular form of entertaining during the coming winter. As a form of enter- tainment they have many things to recommend them. They are suitable for any number of guests, from a few to a great many. While every one is amused and interested in working the puzzles, they are no bar to conversation. Puzzle parties may be given with or without prizes. HOW To GO ABOUT IT. Invite as many or as few as you please. In your invitations name the hour when the play will begin, so that every one will have an equal chance. Divide your guests into sets of from three to seven. or each set provide a table and one of Lire’s Picture Puzztes, or one of Lire’s Gipson Puzztes. If prizes are to be given, they may be awarded in various ways. If, for instance, you have five players at each table, your prizes should be in sets of five—one for each player at the winning table. The set of handsomest prizes should be awarded to the table which completes its puz- zle first. There should also be a set of booby prizes for the table which finishes last. The plan may be varied by having first, second, and third sets of prizes for the table which finish in that order, or prizes may be provided for all the sets. Li Paints, daintily framed, make excell pI Catalogue of these prints to any address on receipt of twenty-five cents. FOR CHARITABLE PURPOSES. Picture Puzzle Parties for charitable _pur- poses may be arranged the same as Prize Zuchres. Owing to the variety of pictures and to the fact that the different subjects in each grade are of about the same difficulty of solu- tion, Lr Picture Pu: gs and Lire’s Gin- son Puzztes are especially adapted to this purpose. In arranging such entertainments it should be remembered that the Gibson sub- jects are intended for advanced puzzle work- ers, and are somewhat more difficult of solu- tion. An especial advantage of the Lire’s puzzles is they are sold in sealed boxes. The boxes should be placed on the tables ready for play and opened simultaneously at a given signal. Allowing seven persons to a table, enough different subjects in each grade—the Live's Puzztes and the Ginson Puzztes—can be sup- plied for parties of 175 persons in each. This number will be increased later. Lire’s Picture Puzzies are sent, carriage prepaid, to any address in the United States for two dollars each; one dozen puzzles, all different subjects, twenty dollars. ,Lire’s Gisson. Puzztes, for advanced puzzle- workers, three dollars each; one dozen Ginson Puzztes, all different subjects, thirty dollars.

QUITE EXCUSABLE They were discussing the relative position of various countries as musical centers. Germany seemed to have the most votaries, much to the evident displeasure of one excitable Italian, who wished his own country to carry off the palm. “Italy is turning out the most musicians, and has always turned out the most," he cried. “Ach, Gott!"” exclaimed a German present, “can you plame her? "’—Kverybody’s. DON'T KEEP THEM “How many servants does your mother keep?"’ asked the lady who had just moved into the neighborhood. “None,’’ replied little Janet, “but we hire lots.’’"—Puck. 572 We want every cigarette smoker in America to know the remark. able individuality and quality of IMPERIALES CIGARETTES Imperiales are rich, mild, perfectly blended so that every puff has the same tempting, satisfying flavor. They are rolled in thin mais paper, crimped, not pasted, and have individual mouth pieces to cool the smoke. Imperiales Cigarettes cost only toc. for 10, yet the most critical smokers use them—men who could afford to pay more, if necessary, but who find in Im- periales the inimit- able flavor and taste that have made them so popular. 10c. for 10 Your dealer should have them on sale.
