Household Economies.

An economical suggestion for the
housewife is to take any old carpet
which is whole, but too discolored
and shabby for use, and tack it down
smoothly on the floor. Make thick
starch of flour and water. Put coat
of this on with large brush. When
dry give it coat of paint any color
desired, though red is preferable. Then
give a second coat, and you have a
cheap floor covering fully as good ao
linoleum and not half as expensive
BY painting once year it will last a
number of years.
Soiled or discolored bric-a-brac may
be made to look very much up to date
by light wash of the copper stain,
which is quite inexpensive. A cheap
tin pot, If one can secure an odd or
very old-fashioned shape, or even a
heavier material, is made very quaint
by a coating of this material.

acceptable gifts made on the same
plan with frame fashioned at home.
There is just now fad for mono

A water set as bridal gift would be
pretty with the monogram. One can
get this done quite reasonably and
quickly. The old-fashioned Bohemian
with its beautiful flashing tints is be-

sets and lemonade sets.
Innumerable novelties are seen in
the way of motto fans, autograph fans

TRAVELLING COSTVMH
OF WOOL MIXTURE il

As many occasions arise during the
year for making a small token OF
friendship, it is we'll to know of the
many inexpensive ways OF making
gifts. The white china tiles used for
mantels, about three by six inches, can
be made very artistic by small pic
ture or poster head The amateur
can also utilize these in a charming
way with a coat of lustre such as is
used by china decorators in any de-
sired color. A favorite toast or motto
written on them, burned in a frame,
can be provided for about twenty-five
cents. The numberless novelties
shown in the way of ceramics are in
teresting and instructive. Decorated
china is taking the place Of jewelry in
many ways. The newest fad in this
line is the miniature painted heart worn
on a chain of long fiat china beads
painted in the various cOlored luStres.
A lovely little pipe rack may be
made of dark brown leather on which
clever design is burned and stained
This offers many suggestions for cal
endars, book covers and newspaper
racks. Picture frames would lend
themselves readily to such treatment;
fiat cheap frame could be easily COW
cred with the leather, and a whip, rid
ing cap and spurs burned in this frame
to surround the head of horse.

huge butterfly, then covered with

and corn meal griddle cakes are not
made from prepared flour, but from
the plain flour and meal, which is
raised by yeast after the old-fash-
toned methods. The result is most
delicious cakes, light and wholesome,
and not so difficult of digestion as
those made from prepared flours
The Southern cook invariably uses
more butter in making tea biscuits,
which accounts for their crispness.
Instead of mixing the flour with water
or skim milk, cream or very rich milk
is used.
For those who oppose breads made
light by artificial raising, there is the
old-f fashioned Southern hoe cake,
which is absolutely free from any rails

bread as any one can find. Hoe cake

Great discretion, therefore, Is nee

the trend of fashion, the styles select

son. The prospective bride should
bear in mind the possibility of max
ing over her handsome and expensive
outfit, otherwise the outlay would be
unjustifiable, except in rare cases.
The wedding dress of white silk or
fine white cloth-satin, by the way, is
going out of styles eliminated as
feature of the trousseau. This tradi
tional gown must be considered as a
thing apart, eminently loveless and,
alasl useless after the wedding day.
The first consideration of the bride,
after her wedding gown, is the go
ing away" or travelling costume. In a
rousseau of perhaps half a dozen
suits, this costume must serve all the
purposes of the tailor-made. In color,
tone and style il should be adapted for
morning and afternoon wear. Indeed,
it should be sufficiently elegant and
distinguished for the informal family

even during her honeymoon. For
this reason a delicate color, although
somewhat extravagant, is perhaps
preferable. Tan and pearl cloths,

satisfactorily dyed rich bronze OIL

70 the daughters. But 1t was great
sport even TO watch it. Many OF the
gray-whiskered papas joined their sons
and scampered madly up TO the tops
OF the highest trees. throwing redwood
acorns down at the merry crowd. Many
games were played by the children. the
sedate elders looking on the while.
There was hunt the handkerchief,"
hide and go seek" ''puss wants a cor

was created by the swapping bonbons,
and the young rabbits were delighted
to find that they popped like frecrack-

pulled so hard on one that 1t broke

of witch-hazel growing near and his
mother chewed up some of the leaves
for poultice and bound up the burnt
tail with her handkerchief.
And the frecrackers; Oh myi

teeny. weeny ones for the babies, some
middle sized ones for the other chill

very much, either, because il scared

were delighted and the louder the
noise the better they liked it. It Is
true there were good many singed
whiskers and tails. but they would
grow again. and anyway the mammas
and papas could do the children's
smelling for them until their smellers
grew again.
The skyrockets looked like stars as
they shot up in the darkness higher
than the tops of the big redwood trees.
