USES FOR NEWSPAPERS.

"What do you do with your news

asked a woman whose rooms were usu-
ally half buried under the daily and

a wooden arrangement like series OF
saw-hOrses on a small scale. 1t stood
perhaps eighteen inches high and was
about two feet long. asked the store
keeper what it was and he said it was

at struck me that it would be just
the thing to hold newspapers and mag
azines, so l bought it. and when it ar
rived home took down my little box OF
gold paint and decorated it. You

1t looks pretty. too. You can run rib
bons in and out if you wish, but don't
fancy ribbons much, so l have none.
"By the way. let me tell you how to
buy gold paint. Don't get the cheap
stuff that comes already mixed IN bot
ties. If you buy II in the box, the bot
tie of medium never lasts as long as
the bottle # powder. Now, instead Of
putting it up in that way, go to the
paint shop and buy Is cents worth of
the medium and 10 or 90 cents worth
of the gold powder and you will have
about three times as much as If you
got it in the box. Keep your medium
tightly corked and put IN the cork the
moment you are through using 1t.
Only turn little out at q time and use
it quickly before it has a chance to dry,
