ON COMFORTABLE HOMES.
Overcrowding with Accumulation CT
Worthless Things a Deplorable
Custom, But a Common One.

What We all need in our homes is
comfort This cannot be bought and
must be attained by careful thought and
common sense. The first thing to do TO
bring this about is to dispense with
useless trash which does not add to the
beauty of the house, but does add to the
work. This is one Of the first principles
of reform. and the hardest to make peo-
pie believe. Most OF the homes go to
strike me as being overcrowded. SO many
little fOolly things that are not decora-
tive in themselves and yet are Of no
earthly use
OF course, we all of us have things
we value for their associations. These
need never be thrown away. but a
closet in the background made use of
to put these away. where they can be
safely placed until brought out again
and others take their place. 1t is usu-
ally the bedrooms that come in far I'M
necessaries, which are dumped there
and require moving and handling when
busting adding all the time the work
of the house. A successful bedroom
is one that has little In II, but
possessing carefully chosen colorings
and dainty appointments which rest the
eye and satisfy the mind.

NOTES FOR HoMEMAKER.

Whipped cream appears SO frequent
BILE that an appliance which fluffs the
cream in no time Is one of the most well
come of the recent inventions for the
household. The new beater is in the
form of a jar with perforated dasher.
The latest chocolate cups are as high
as their predecessors. but trifle larger
and curve little at the rim.
Patented trunks are numerous. A
westerner recently secured patent on
a new style combination trunk. The
special point is horizontal partition
with two drawers below it. This makes
three sections to the trunk and articles
can be put in or taken out of one section
without disturbing any other section.
The sections, which resemble the
drawers of a bureau, are subdivided.
There is good news for the gardener,
particularly the amateur. Wedding

The Erie Railroad has arranged for the
immediate expenditure of $225, 900 for the
installation of the most modern and eli.
fcient railway signal that has yet been
put on the market. 1t is known as the
Hall Electric Semaphore Normal Clear
System, and is operated by stationary stor-
age batteries. The line between Bergen,
n. j., and Middletown, distance Of 88
miles, is to be equipped at once. For
the first 80 miles, the signals will be put
two-thirds of mile apart; for the rest
of the distance, about one and one-third
miles apart. It will require Ave power
plants for charging the batteries, which
will be located at Rutherford Junction,
Ridgewood Junction, Suffern, Oxford and
Middletown. The line to be protected has
two and four tracks at different places,
and is the most congested part of the Erie
System. Hitherto a manual block, which
is tower with signals operated by
towernan, has been used as block pro-
lection, but it has been deemed best to
install! an automatic system for further
protection, and to accelerate the move
ment of trains. The new system will be
extended over the entire line in the future.
