If she hasn't it already
There are so many fads it Is impOssl-

not to put much money into any one.

The Sitting Room.

So much is said about how to furnish
the bed room, the dining room, library,
and drawing room, how they can be
made most attractive and useful; but
the sitting room is left entirely out and
one might suppose that It could be fur
nished with any old thing. It should be
the very prettiest room in the house and
the most comfortable. 1t is the gather
ing place for the entire family, the one
room In the house for games, reading,
sewing, and, in fact, a little bit of every
thing.
Soft white curtains should be hung at
the windows, and, IL possible, there
should be one or two south windows, as
this room needs plenty Of sunshine. A
table in one corner, or, better still, in
the middle Of the room, will be found
necessary. Here good, attractive books
for the young members Of the family
should be kept. If the boys Of the fam
lily always found interesting reading
matter on the sitting room table there
would be less dime novel reading.
Now, of all things. have big, soft
couch; do without other pieces of fur
niture before that. Let 1t be well sup
piled with sofa pillows and be made to
look comfortable and cosy and altogether
homelike. Then some easy chairs, a
rocker or two, and footstOol.
On the walls put some OF your choic-
est pictures and a rich, warm looking
wall paper. Light the room with a lamp
and this gives a mellow light which Is
very restful to the eyes.
To all this now let the women OF
the family add their dainty touches, and
who shall say that this room is not the
most attractive in the house?

To Keep Furniture Looking New.

1t seems nearly impossible to keep
furniture looking fresh, when dirt, like
the poor, Is always with us. When there
are steam and dust and, in most homes,
children who will make finger marks,
the task seems doubly difficult. There
is simple mixture Of kerosene and lin
seed oil, two parts Of the kerosene to
one of the linseed oil, which makes the
best polish that has come to my no
tice. This should only be mixed little
at a time. Some use turpentine, but
this is not nearly so trustworthy, as 1t
will dull instead of brighten the polish
in time. After the piece Of furniture
to be treated has been well busted, take
a soft piece of flannel and dip 1t in the
preparation, rub a small surface OF the
woodwork, and then take another small
surface, allowing the first to stand while
this is being done; then takea clean fan
mel, rub until the polish shines to suit
you. This will leave polish brilliant
and beautiful. If this polishing takes
place occasionally the furniture may be
kept looking like new for an almost In
definite time; indeed, / might say in
definitely, If it is all Of wood. Be sure
the rags are absolutely clean and free
from dust. The same ones may be used
and washed to use again as long as they
last
When there are upholstered cushions
on the chairs or other furniture, dust
well with whisk broom, and then rub
rapidly with flannel wet with gaso-
line. There must be no fire in the room
during this process, and not even a
match struck in it until the odOr has
evaporated. II will be best to set sucn
pieces out of doors to clean them' IL
