Room Corners.

Few women realize the decorative possibilities of corners. The result Is that even in pretty and artistic rooms the corners are too often left bare. the walls being allowed to meet in hard, straight lines. with nothing to break their monotony Before attempting to alter thls, however, 1t is well to reeog nlze fully that corner dec&ation must depend somewhat upon the architec tural qualities of the room, When an apartment Is small the corners should not be filled up or cut off by placing pieces of furniture diagonally across them, for thls only dlmlnishes the ap. parent size of the room. When the ceiling is low nothing should be put into corners which does not carry the eye beyond it's own level. It is, there fore, only in large rooms that we can have absolute freedom In corner deco. eating

MASONIC.
Good System For Preserving Rec-
 ords-Craft Tidings.

The method adopted by Crescent lodge of Cedar Rapids, Ia. for preserv- Ing it's record of existence is a splendid one One Of it's features Is scrap book, kept constantly up 10 date, con taining everything printed of the lodge or any of it's members, advertisements of all mem bers in business and every possible item of interest, from q lost dog or cat to death or fire Annual ly there is prepared q chapter cover ing the years work. This includes ac- tivities of men and descriptions of events, record of lodge work, bogra- phes of the dead and activities Of the members Each chapter is in such shape that 1t can be published without revision or change. It Is sealed and docketed and placed in the lodge vault The next year another chapter is pre- pared, and so on. When another his tory is to be published the historian has all necessary material at hand Such system covers the field so thor oughly that it seems to forget nothing of possible value.
 Masonic circles in England are inter- ested in the spread of Freemasonry in the far east and in Africa. New lodges are springing into existence in India China and far back in the heart of Persia.
 Alpha lodge of Newark, N j.. enjoys the distinction of being the only lodge of negroes in the country constituted under authority of a regular grand lodge
 One of the many ways in which Ma sonic brotherhood may be exemplitied was demonstrated by the members Of Wabash lodge, No 119, at Etna, Ill., who went to the home of the widow of Brother Rotten Deckard tn Paradise and cut up and sawed several cords of wood before leaving.

ODD FELLOWS.
What the Order Has Done-Triple
 Link Notes.

It Is stated that within the eighty six years of it's existence the order of Odd Fellows has helped over 2,5OO, GOO of it's mem bers in tines of need, relieved more than POO eco widowed families, buried nearly an equal number of it's honored dead with all the honors and ceremonies of Odd Fellowship and to do all this has involved the outlay Of over S63, 100000, which has been cheer fully contributed to the noble work Verify. the fraternity has something of which it may be justly proud.
 The orphans home located at Cot tesloe, Western Australia, was opened recently. and the matron. Miss West, received her first charges-twin girl ba- bies a fortnight old. The mem bers across the deep are demonstrating the teachings of the order by practical les- sons.
 The work of Calhoun lodge of liar din. H.. Is an example of what enthu siasm and work will do. This lodge has doubled it's mem bership since Jan. 1.
 The reports of the subordinate lodges of Massachusetts for the year ending Dec 31. 1905, show membership of 55,643, gain of 736 for the year 19O5
 The law provides that a lodge may create an entertainment Ssnd by set ting apart per cent Of it's receipts for dues Every lodge should maintain such a fund and thus avoid many ar guments as to proper disbursement
 The largest jurisdiction of Odd Eel lows is Pennsylvania, with l30,OO0 members of subordinate lodges.
 The earnestness of Grand Master " R. Humphrey of Illinois is telling all over the state, and already scores of lodges have made the requested net gain of fifteen In membership.
 The building and maintenance of Odd Fellows homes in so many states and countries where Odd Fellowship four ishes is the best evidence of the fdel- ity of the order and the zeal of it's membership.

THE WORKBASKE ET.
An Article That Ought to Be Tn Every
 Girls Room,


 4 well fitted out work basket tor bag or stand, as the case might bel ought to be part of every girls room. For it's all very well to preach to yourself upon the threadbare text of a stitch in time saving nine if you haven't the necessary tools right at hand to do that mending on the spur of the moment.
 These pretty little stands of wicker hold plenty of the little necessary things and should be kept supplied with hooks and eyes and buttons and tapes and silks and cottons galore, to say nothing Of scissors kept in such perfect condition that they will cut through bit of chiffon or other elusive stuff cleanly.
 Go step farther and include with shoe buttons and thread tor fasteners a few pairs of shoe laces. Broken laces should rightly come under the head of mending even though the mending takes the form of replenishing.
 Glove thread and buttons or clasps form another necessary set of little things which that basket should hold, as well as the alarming and other mate rias which point to weekly work.
 If you've room for neither basket nor stand, at least keep a wee bag In your top drawer fitted out with the most frequently used things. You'll find the dreaded weekly mending shrinking in quantity and difficulty If you follow that plan.
