The Blue and White Kitchen.

Kitchen decorations and furnishing,
assume new Importance under the direc-
ton or artistic home makers. It is
now quite the proper thing to adopt a.
scheme OF blue and white. Thus the
moor Is laid with blue and white oilcloth
and the dresser has n covering of the
same colored table oilcloth scalloped.
ABOVE the marble top pastry table is a
small cupboard filled with blue and white
cooking utensils. even to the rolling pin,
which may be found to harmonize with
this new fancy. Sash curtains of cheese
cloth are recommended for this room be-
cause SO Inexpensive and easily washed
The frying pan clock from being an
extreme novelty has become quite COM
mon. Plants in blue and white Jars on
the window shelf add to the general
effect.

gard charging persons that ride over tho bridge

nor do believe that any driver Of a truck will
charge the oCcupont thereof one cent for riding
agross. as Mr. skinner says for l have often rid

money from the million "deadheads, that other

Very odd,

Funny little housewives are fashioned
out OF bit of Bingham and flannel. A
round piece Of cardboard Is covered with
the Bingham to serve as a base, and this
full skirt Is pinned closely around this at
the bottom and gathered around the waist
which consists Of small stiek-acths
top An apron of cardboard Is covered
with the ginsham, edged with pins and
fitted closely over the head, while thin
bic set on top gives the semblance Of 4
bell crown. A fichu Of the gingham II
crossed over the stick shoulders and
across the back Is fastened an ivory
crochet hook, from either end Of which
are suspended tape needles stuck through
and upholding two spools of white cot
ton. Two small whitfield sticks come out
from under the fchu for. arms. and the
whole effect Is ridiculously like q peasa14

For Pretty Nails.

No woman who confines her manicur-
Ing 10 hasty use of a nailbrush and

pretty nails. But she who takes a half
hour every week and ten minutes a day
to the operation may have beautiful
ones. First the hands must be soaked
in warm water, and when the skin about
the nails IL soft and pllable It should
be pushed back and the little rough ends
Of cutlcle cut off. The nails should be
cleaned with soft orange wood sticks:
then they should be cut. shaped and
filed.
