Room holdings.

1t is often more refreshing to gid
holdings in part than to gid them
wholly. Thus an inch bead may be di-
vided into short chunks Of three inches
in length and alternating gilt and
cream color, thus saving half the gold
and enhancing the effect. It must,
however, be borne in mind that in such
a case there must be sufficiently strong
combining members of red or other en-
phatic color to keep the holding rigid
or loss of repose would result instead
of an accession of richness. Curved
members SHOULD be enriched by the
application OF straight line ornament,
and vice versa This Is a good rule
and gives full value for the expenditure
of time. Another rule is to put the
darker tints on the recessed parts and
the lighter on the raised parts, prae-
tice approved by the best tasta.

Simple Plays For Children.

mother called upon to plan many

upon the plan Of taking the children's
favorite story and making a simple
dramatization Of 1t and allowing the
children to give it before their little
friends.
The parts are divided between her
own children and their friends. Some
times the story is given as a series Of
tableaux. In no case is the dialogue
long or heavy or the scenery elaborate.
This mother argues that all children
love to initiate and to dress in cos
tune and that these little home dramas
train them in many ways, besides Civ
ing them much pleasure.
They memorize the words, they form

HOME Gov;
why Not Have Every Room In the
House a Sitting Room?

Why Not Have Every KcoTn In the
Hocse a Sitting ROOM:
"Eyery room in your house seems to
be a sitting room.' remarked the rela-
tive who was being 'taken through the
house,
so it isl was the reply. Il don't
believe there's a bedroom in the house
that is merely sleeping apartment
and nothing more"
Both comments indicate the tendency
in. many homes toward turning the bed
room Of each individual into private
sitting room, where it's owner may re-
tire from the bosom of the family when
desirable and yet be quite as luxurious
as if downstairs in library or family
sitting room,
JiIl's room contains not only her lit
tie white bed and dressing table, but
also her bookcase, her desk, her loung
ing chair her alcohol teakettle and al
the small personal belongings which
make it possible for Jill to live a quite
complete existence in her own little
room, says the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Jack, too, has his lounging chair, his
desk and books and prints and smoking
things up in his room, and perhaps you
will hunt in vain for his bed, for very
likely it disappears in the daytime in
the guise Of a big, roomy davenport or
wardrobe, with plate glass mirror.
Downstairs is the commodious family
sitting room, where all assemble when
socially inclined. But when the spirit
Of solitude impels then the bedroom
sitting room offers a refuge unknown
in the old days, when in the middle
class home there was no place to sit ex-
cept with the whole family or In a
cherries, barren sleeping apartment.
This tendency toward isolation may
be decried by some as selfish, but one
wonders if it is not one Of the most
helpful aspects Of the steady growth of
individualism. We all become a little
weary Of each other, and brief respite
from the society Of even the best be-
loved is sometimes desirable.

Stephen Roster Struck by Train
at the Crossing North ofthe
Pennoyer Sanitarium
HORSE INSTANTLY KILLED
The Old Gentleman Had Attempted tc
Drive Across the Track and Did
Not Hear the Approaching Train
Escapes With Few Bruises

Stephen Roster, an old resident of
the North side, had the narrowest
sort of an escape from being killed
under the wheels of a train Saturday
at the North-W Western crossing
just north Of the e anitarium, and the
fact that Koster escaped uniniured
seems to be nothing less than a mir
acle. The horse he was driving was
instantly killed and the vehicle was
demolished, but Roster rose from the
ruins with a few bad bruises and no
bones broken.
The accident occurred just after 10
o'clock, and the vehicle in which
Roster was riding was struck by a
north bound passenger train due to
leave Kenosha at 1910. It is said
that the fact that some freight cars
were standing along the track made
it impossible for theEold man to see
the oncon1ing train. The injured man
had gone out into the town of Somers
this morning to do some work and
was returning when the accident took
place. The train was some distance
from the crossing, when the engineer
noticed that the old man was APP
preaching the crossing and he sound
ed the warning signal. Roster seems
to have failed to hear the signal and
he drove on to the track just as the
train dashed by. The horse was di-
rectly in the path of the engine and
he was instantly killed. The light
vehicle was reduced to kindling wood
and Roster was thrown to the side of
the road bed. The engineer wit
messed the entire accident, and in a
minute he reversed the brakes and the
passengers were thrown from their
seats by the sudden stopping of the
train. The passengers rushed out of
the cars and picked up the injured
man. He was bruised and bleeding,
but he vas able to stand when he had
been assisted to his feet. The pas
sengers and trainmen carried the old
man to the side Of the road and it was
discovered that he had not been badly
injured. He was taken to the Pen
meyer Sanitarium, where his son had
formerly worked, and the people at
the institution d once identified him.
DR.. Adams had him removed to room
and made an examination of his in
juries. The examination showed that
that Roster had a bad cut on his
scalp, but the skull had not been
ractured. He also had several bad
bruises about the body.
1t is thought from the nature of the
injuries Of Roster that the train was
running at such rapid speed that it
simply cut off the front end of the We
hicle and that Roster fell over back
wards and that his bruises were re-
ceived in the fail. Roster will be re-
moved to his home this afternoon and
it is expected that he will be able to
be out in day or two. The horse
killed was valued at 500.
