Draperv Materials.

A young housekeeper desires 0

materials, and what will be tn Q
most suitable for the floors of two
connecting rooms in common use.
The answer is: Denim is one of the
best OF all fabrics for a portfolio
in rooms constantly used. 1t may
be washed and will look quite as
well as new. If you want little
variety, put one entire width in
right side out, and split another
and join to the first section put
ting the side pieces wrong side
out. Sew the seams then fell them
and feather stitch the outside of
the seams in colored linen. Then
with teacup or saucer draw
some circles intersecting or lap
ping at one edge. Work these with
linen in long stitches and make
eccentric lines or spider web lines
from the central design. Il he edges
may be hemmed and feather-stitch.

When Serving Pears.

When serving pears for break
fast, select ouly ripe, mellow ones
wash and polish with a soft cloth
arrange in a basket on a bed of
pear leaves, or they may be pared,
sliced and sprinkled with powdered
sugar, writes Eliza'R. Parker in the
July Ladies' Home Journal.
When baking pears, take the
large, sweet ones; do not remove
the stems. Stand them in an
earthen baking dish; pour in a
cupful of boiling water; add half
a teacup of sugar; cover the dish,
and set in the oven to bake slowly
until the pears are tender, basting
occasionally with the syrup. When
cold serve with cream.

HER SON MISSING.

ious of His Whereabouts.

Rudolph Motsch, a seventeen
year-old lad, formerly student of
Temple & Hamilton Business col
lege, is missing, and his mother is
anxious to learn of his whereabouts.
She says he has been away from
home since last March and she has
never heard of him since. Her rea-
son for not reporting the fact until
now, she says, was because
she thought he would have return
ed by this time. She says she
cannot imagine where he has gone
to or what induced him to leave
his home, as he had all the com

Before leaving he did not tell his

no preparations. 1t is believed he
left with a crowd of boys of about
the same age. She intends putting
the matter in the hands of the pc.

The paper, however was defective and in
few months commenced to fade.
| have, therefore, placed a suit for indem-
nifty in the hands of my attorney-to recover
damages caused by the same; to set myself
right before my patrons and substantiate my
oft assurances of guarantees of all my work.
In order to carry out my purposes as above
given, will consider it a marked favor for all
my patrons to examine their pictures, and
those of their friends made by me, and, if
defective, collect them, and | will with pleas
ure replace them.
1t has been a most unfortunate affair to
me. aiming, as do, to use the best material
and thus insure the best possible work.
As proof of the permanency of my work

of the pictures in my show window, which
