Doilies.

The round doilies, made of left over
bits of linen or table damask, and fin
ished quite simply with a scallop, have
lost none of their popularity. But var
iations of the original theme are being
developed from time to time. Dotted
damask-the good old staple kind
which is in use for tablecloths and
napkins in nine out of ten houses
makes the newest of them. Both the
squares and dots are used, but usually
only the smallest size of either. The
scallop is embroidered heavily and
sometimes a smaller circle described
inside, a couple of inches away from
the edge, the scallop reversed, so that
the firm edge comes nearer the center.

RESTORING Run.pown Farms.

The first step in the upgrade Of
farm life is doubtless less land to
farm and more thorough cultivation.
1t would seem a suitable maxim for
the majority Of farmers, If we wish
to restore worn-out lands and main

raise paying crops. The ayes of many
farmers are being opened to that fact,
and their efforts are being directed to
more thorough methods in farm OPP

colored Wash Goods.

Pink is the most fashionable color
this season, but it is always a great
question how much pink linen, mus
lin O. other wash goods will fade after
laundering. To keep the color, instead
of using bluing in the last water get
a piece of clean red calico, enough to
color the water. Wash it out until the
water is tinted; pass your pink dress
through it and the color will be as
bright as when new. Lavender ma
terial is benefited by using bluing with
the red stained water until the violet
tint appears.

OPEN PARLoRS FOR FAMILY

If club women of Los Angeles follow
the advice of Miss Leta Horlocker, the
speaker before the Friday Morning
club yesterday, they will have no more
parlors that are not for general use
They will not shut up their best room,
pull the shades down and put a gem
eral gloom over the place until COM
pany comes and then open everything
up, for their benefit. Miss Horlocker
thinks that the parlor and the use of
1t should belong to the family and not
to the stranger. She says:
"A husband should not have to put
on his slippers when he enters the
house for fear Of getting the carpet
dirty, Fancy pillows, with do not
touch sign should not be put on the
most comfortable couch in the house.
A woman who keeps her house only
for beauty and other peoples eyes is
not true housekeeper. The home is
for comfort and the convenience of the
family circle should be placed over
everything else"
Miss Horlocker is an interesting
speaker and is an expert in china deco
ration as well as an exponent Of home
comfort. She Is visitor in California
and has never spoken here before.

Of Alaska: most of the business of

a particular reason for the Seattle
people to exploit the modern Col.
