BEAUTIFUL HOMES,
The Tendency of the Age Is Toward
Mural Decorations.

Probably at no time in the world history
has as much attention been paid to the in.
terror decoration of homes as at present.
No home no matter how humble is without
its handlwork shat helps to beautlfy the
apartments and make the surroundings more
cheerful The taste of the American people
has kept pace with the age, and almost
every day brings forth something new
IN the way OF a picture, a draping, 4
piece of furniture or other form of mural
decoration. One of the latest of these has
been given TO the world by the celebrated
artist, Muville, in a series Of four handsome
porcelain game plaques. Not for years has
anything as handsome IN this line been seen.
The subjects represented by these plaques
are American Wild Ducks, American Pleas
ant, American Quail and English Snpe
They are handsome paintings and are es
pecially designed for hanging on dining
room walls, though their richness and beau
~ entitled them to place in the parlor of
any home. These original plaques have been
purchased at cost of $4,000 by J. {. Hub
niger Bros. Co, manufacturers of the cele-
hrated Elastic Starch, and in order to enable
their numerous customers 10 become posses
sors of these handsome works of art they
have had them reproduced by special
process, in all the rich colors and beauty of
the original. They are finished on heavy
cardboard, pressed and embossed in the
shape OF plaque and trimmed with heavy
band Of gold. They measure forty inches
in circumference and contain no reading
matter or advertisement whatever
Until September LIST Messrs j c. Huhing-
er Bros. Co. propose 10 distribute these
plaques free to their customers Every pur-
chaser of three tencent packages of Elastic
Starch, fat-ron brand, manufactured by J.
C.. Hubinger Bros Co. is entitled TO receive
one of these handsome plaques free from
their grocer. Old and new customers alike
are entitled to the benefits Of this offer.
These plaques will not be sent through the
mail, the only way to obtain them being
from your grocer Every grocer store in the
country has Elastic Starch for sale. II is the
Oldest and best laundry starch on the mar
ket and is the most perfect cold process
starch ever invented 1t is the only starch
made by men who thoroughly understand
the laundry business, and the only starch
that will not iniure the finest fabric. II has
beten the standard for quarter of century
and as an evidence Of how good it is twenty
two million packages were sold last year.
Ask your dealer to show you the plaques and
tell you about Elastic Starch. Accept no
substitute. Bear in mind that this offer
holds good a short time only and should be
taken advantage OF without delay.

PRETTY WELL HOUSE.
IL Is Not Only Very Attractive, But
Helps to Keep the Farm
Water supply Cool.

In view of the comfort which comes
from a well of cold water during the
hot weather on farms where ice is not
put up, it is worth the while 10 do all
in ones power to keep the suns heat
out of the well. Few realize the
amount of heat that goes down into a
well of water through the platform
that surrounds the pump. 1t can be
partially realized by going up into n
close attic under the roof some hot
day. AS a matter of fact, closed air
spaces beneath boarding that is eX-
posed to the bright sun become fear
fully heated, and in the case Of wells
this heat is soon transmitted to the
water. a double platform with an air

The sprayer permits Of giving the
poultry house a thorough scrubbing
occasionally. 1t is done on warm
clear day, thoroughly spraying the
walls and floor with water, using ar
old broom on the floor to loosen the
dirt. and finally drenching with the
sprayer, first removing the nests,
After this is done leave the door and
windows open and let the work be
performed early in the morning, but
not in winter, when the temperature
of the atmosphere is below 40 de
grees. In summer it should be done
as often as once a week.

There is a quick way of fattening
fowls for market. 1t cannot be done
by confning them in coops, as they
