THE CLEANING CLOSET.

Every House Should Have One In an
Accessible Place. "a
The suggestion which the Cooking
Club makes apropos Of setting aside
closet In the house for cleaning fluids
and materials is a capital one. Who
cannot recall the annoyance arising
from having to wear an ink stained
gown or a shirt waist freckled with
cherry stains because one hadn't any
thing TO remove the ugly Disagreement
with7
IF possible have the cleaning closet
separate from the regular medicine
closet, so that In case OF sudden illness
there will be no danger of getting the
bottles mixed" advises this magazine.
Have all bottles plainly marked II
a special cupboard cannot be spared
for the cleaning fluids, place them on
a separate shelf and label the shelf in
order that any one can go there and
find the required drug without trouble.
Ammonia, wood alcohol fOd gaso-
line for the liquids and French chalk,
cornmeal and pipe clay for dry clean
ing are absolute necessities. Each
household has special things that II in
variably uses for cleansing and reno
waiting. and doubtless one is as good as
another. but tie important thing is TO
have them in an accessible place and
where they can be had at a moments

Lace Wraps

Separate wraps are always a most inn
pontant part Of a wardrobe, and yet at
is never very easy TO know just what is
to be at once the most appropriate and
the smartest style of coat for each sea-
son.
This year lace seems to be the favorite
material for the elaborate cloak, and very
handsome are the wraps male Of broad
Irish and guipure. For a light wrap

real warmth is desired the lace may bs
made up over light taffeta silk covered
with chiffon to give a softer effect.
Very beautiful are the Irish lace bolorS
and Eton jackets. The back Is left quit,
full so as TO ft over the most elaborat'
waist and the sleeves are also very large
so as not to interfere with or crush tn,

RULE BY LOVE.

A Motto Every Mother should Use In
Governing Her Children.
Many mothers might profit by max
ing this their motto: "Rule by love"
The child heart is so susceptible to the
influence Of affection that IL seems a
wondrous pity that the budding soul
should be hindered by the stumbling
blocks of severer methods as the little
life develops. Love is the only power
that really conquers after all. Battles
won by force are but battles likely to
be fought over again. A rebellious
spirit overcome by love and kindness
is a conquest made permanent
II a motler desires her child to dc
a certain thing. why not, first OF all
request him TO do it. Just the same as
you would ask IL OF any other person
DO this kindly, but with the appear
ance Of one expecting the request TO be
granted. II the child refuses, explain
TO him why you wish him TO obey.
If he still draws back, appeal to his
conscience, for the average child old
enough to understand what is wanted
of him has a conscience sufficiently de
veloped TO do its work. Say: "Surely
you wish to do what IS right. This 1.
right, and expect IL OF you" Wheth
er the child obeys or not, this method
cannot fail to quicken his conscience
and set him TO thinking.

FOR WOMEN
Useful to Know

To remove wet paint from clothing
Rub the stain at once with another
piece of the same material and the
stain will entirely disappear. You can
use another part of the same garment.
What happens to the paint il is difficult
to say but, certainly. It vanishes.
To prevent lamp chimneys from
cracking. wrap each chimney loosely
but entirely in a cloth; place them to-
gether In a kettle and cover with cold
water. Bring the water to a boil. con-
tinue the heat ten or fifteen minutes
and then cool off. BY this tempering
they are toughened against all ordinary
lamp heat.
To keep lights bright, soak lamp
wioks in vinegar before using them in
a lamp. Wash smoke stained CHM
neys in warm water and soap. and rub,
while wet, with vinegar or dry salt.
They can also be cleaned, as may be
globes on gas fixtures, in warm water
and soda, and then in warm water and
ammonia.

more modern times and with the tools

going to the extent OF carving relief
