The plans for this closet call for
four drawers below the counter shelf,
two long ones at the bottom and two
short ones above. These drawers are
intended to hold the table linen. If
the body of the closet clear to the floor
is properly lined and sealed and the
doors made to fit right in front the
table linen will be kept clean and free
from dust, as well as the dishes An
other good plan is provided in the
shelving, which is removable 1t is

This house plan provides for a hard
maple floor in the kitchen. Other
floors may be decorated with rugs or
carpets. but few women care to have
a kitchen floor covered 1t is much
more satisfactory to have a good clean
hard floor that will bear scrubbing and
look right than to try to patch up a
soft floor with oilcIoth or any other
makeshift- A well seasoned maple
floor, properly laid. will last a life
time and make good firewood after
wards, while a soft floor wears to

on such things because they vary in

money and some owners probably

BABY COVERED WITH SORES

Have Died But for Cuticura."

MY little son, when about year
and a half old, began to have sores
come out on his face I had a physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come on
his arms, then on other parts of his
body, and then one came on his chest,
worse than the others. Then called
another physician Still he grew
worse At the end of about year
and a half of suffering he grew so bad
I had to tie his hands in cloths at
night to keep him from scratching the
sores and tearing the flesh. He got to
be a mere skeleton, and was hardly
able to walk. My aunt advised me to
try Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
sent to the drug store and got cake
of the Soap and a box of the Oint-
ment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since. He is now strong and healthy,
and I can sincerely say that only for
your most wonderful remedies my
precious child would have died from
those terrible sores. Mrs. Egbert

How to Put On Gloves.

Open and turn back the gloves to
the thumb and powder lightly Put
the fingers in their places, not the
thumb, and carefully work them on
with the first finger and thumb of
the other hand until they are quite
down; never press between the fin
gers. Pass the thumb into it's place
with care and work on as the fingers.
Turn back the glove and slide it over
the hand and wrist, never pinching
the kid, and work the glove into
proper place by means of the light
est pressure, always allowing the kid
to slide between the fingers In fin

For about three years / had been
a great sufferer from Indigestion
After trying several kinds of medi-
cine, the doctor would ask me to drop

but in few days that craving, gnaw-
ing feeling would start up. and 1
would vomit everything 1 ate and
drank
when started on Grape-Nuts,
vomiting stopped, and the bloating

ach was so weak she could not digest

IRoRs ABOUT THE WHITE
HOUSE.

To the Editor:
noticed somewhere recently
would not say positively that it was in
your columns-an article on the White
House which contained several mis-
statements
In the first place it was stated the
White House was first occupied in
1909 and that its first occupant was
President Madison. The fact is, its
first occupant was President Adams,
who took up his residence there in
1900.
The original mansion was begun in
1892 In 1914 it was burned by the
British and rebuilt in 1918.
Another of the errors in the article
referred to was the statement that
ready-prepared paint is Used on the
White House to make it beautifully
white.
1 noticed this especially because 1
have used considerable paint myself
and wondered that canned" paint
should be used on such an important
building when all painters know that
pure white lead and inseed oil make
the best paint.
1t SO happened also that I knew
white lead and linseed oil-not ready

House, because had just read book
let published by firm of ready-mixed
paint manufacturers who also manu-
facture pure white lead In that book
the manufacturers admitted that for
the White House nothing but Nthe
best and purest of paint could be
used" and said that their pure white
lead had been selected.
Above all peopIe those who attempt
to write on historical subjects should
give us facts, even if it is only date
or statement about wood, or brick,
or paint, or other building material.

This cupboard should receive very
careful attention in building. There
are dishes in every household outfit
