ON HOMES.
overorowding with Accumulation of
Worthless Things a Deploratle
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 10 do 10
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 n of the first principles
of reform. and the hardest to make peo-
pie believe. Most of the homes | go to
strike me as being o~vercrowded. 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 un-
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 it, but
possessing carefully chosen colorings
and dainty appointments which rest the
eye and satisfy the mind.
