she was tremendously clever because
she didn't say much She would only
look at us with one eyebrow raised
when we made any remark or recited
our lessons. and she used to smile in
such an exasperating, superior way. |

affair was spoiled for me. / saw this
young woman looking me over in that

very slippers even, and doing it all

just sat on the edge of a chair and
froze everybody with her manner be-

roundings worried her So"
For my own part, I remember very
distinctly a friend of the family. She
used to come and call on my mother
mainly for the purpose of criticising
and finding fault with everything the
dear soul did She would ask to see
my mothers new dresses and then i'm
mediately point out that the material
was out of style and ask why the
shoulder wrinkled the way it did. BY
the way. no one had observed the wrin-
kle at all before, but we all became
painfully aware Of 1t. Then she would
stay to lunch and tell what the cook
ought to do and ask what was the mat
ter with the pudding sauce. Next she
would INQUIRE into the doings Of the
children and wonder why on earth
my mother was so foolish as to clip
my hair on the ends when every one
knew that singeing was the only thing.
No one escaped. She passed us all in
critical review, and when she had gone
we all felt tired and disguised with life
and ourselves,

A reader in Nebraska wishes to know
what variety of grass to select for the
purpose of seeding down hog pasture
in which are trees which partially
shade the ground. In any of the states
east of Nebraska there would be no
doubt what kind Of grass would finally
take possession Of such a tract, for, no
matter what seed might be sown, the
blue grass would soon occupy the field,
but we doubt if the blue grass has yet
become domesticated so far west.
What would be better than even blue
grass would be alfalfa, which in most
parts Of that state does remarkably
well. He suggests bronze grass. but we
are inclined TO think the best thing to
do would be to put the soil in the best
condition and SOW to alfalfa. which
makes the very best hog pasture In the
world

J ish Women
Cretonne and the Summer
Hcme-The Critical
L a dy

The woman who is planning to fur.
nish a summer home ought fully to
bear in mind the merits of cretonne.
1t is cheap, attractive in coloring
and above all, cool looking. Nothing
can be prettier for bedroom, for in
stance, than white wicker set up
holstered in pink and white cretonne
bearing a rose pattern The bed.
dressing table and bureau, of course,
are of white enamel. Very often the
walls are hung with cretonne instead
which consists in making a paneling of
plain colored cretonne Oh figured walls.
and vice versa. These panelings are
inclosed with strips of molding after
the fashion of tapestry.
But it is not only in the boudoir that
one finds cretonne popular. 1t invades
even the drawing room of the summer
home, and the latest-the very latest
thing is the cretoane covered piano.
This, of course, has the regulation
wooden frame, but in addition there is
a cunningly fitted slip of the same
dainty material that covers the rest of
the furniture. Rooms done in blue
and white material are considered very
swagger this season, especially when
combined with pale yellow or white
woodwork
