with a dash of pink or yellow in the

Striped curtains in two tones of Law

In purchasing oriental rugs be sure
to avoid a certain kind made from
goats hair if you are sensitive TO
odors. In damp weather these rugs
grow decidedly unpleasant. and moth
ing but several days in the sunshine
seems to tone them up again. Age
does not affect this popularity, al
though it sends up the price Of the
carpet. Nor can one usually detect
any disagreeaDle smell in the shop,
where the stock is kept aired and
dried.
Window shades are often rather ex-
pensiye things to replace, and yet they
soil very quickly. Many housewives
will be glad to know they can be made
out Of Indian Head cotton, which can
be had for ten cents a yard Fasten
the material straight across the old
rOllers-Or buy new ones-with many
tacks, stitch a wide enough hem at
the bottom to hold a fat stick of the
proper width and run it in. Shades
that have become ragged at the bot
tom are often improved by cutting
and rehemming. A screw-eye fastened
into the center of the stick through
the muslin will hold the cord.
In making plain fruit cake. if the
raisins and currants are warmed in
the oven before mixing them in, they
will not sink to the bottom in that

the top layer. Cover the dish and
bake ten minutes more to brown the
top. If the cherries are we'll sweet

dessert with a hard sauce favored
with nutmeg.

curried Left-overs.

This is a family name for bits of
mutton, lamb or veal which are too
ragged to be served in any other way.
They are first passed through a chop
ping machine and then mixed with an
equal quantity OF cold rice (boiled)
and seasoned with pepper. salt and
curry powder and a little chopped
parsley or celery if it is at hand Form
into small cakes or croquets, using a
raw egg to hold them together: dip
>in egg, roll in crumbs and fry in deep
lard. Any cold, cooked cereal can be
used instead Of the rice, although rice
seems to lend itself to curries with
peculiar appropriateness.

A Jacobs Story.

A magazine editor was talking about
w. w. Jacobs, the famoas humorist.
Il went abroad last summer" he
said, ito try and get Mr.. Jacobs to
write for me; but / found hat he had
all he could do for six or seven years
to come.
He is a quiet, modest chap. When
l praised his wonderful skill in the
writing of short stories, he said that
1t was only their surprises that made
his stories take.
Then, to illustrate what he meant,
he told ME a story wherein the sur
prises came fast and furious.
He said that a lawyer, defending a
man accused of house breaking, spoke
like this:
".Your honor, I submit that my eli
ent did not break into the house at all.
He found the parlor window open and
merely inserted his arm and removed
a few trifing articles. Now, my eli
ent's arm is not himself, and | fall to
see how you can punish the whole in
diyidual for an offense committed only
by one of his limbs
THAT argument said the Judge, is
yerv we'll put. Following it logically.

years imprisonment. He can accom-
many it or not as he chooses

Midland.

Midland is situated in the valley of the
Bad River, in Stanley County, South
Dakota. The town is beautifully sit
uated. with the river on the south and
Mitchell Creek on the east. There are
beautiful groves of ash, elm and cotton
wood along the river, and the land slopes
gently back from the streams - just
enough to insure good drainage and to
command a beautiful view of the river
valley from what will be the residence
portion of the town.
Underlying the site is an inexhaustible
supply of excellent water, at a depth of
from twenty to fifty feet. A fine steel
wage bridge crosses the Bad River at
this point and a wooden bridge crosses
Mitchell Creek. Midland is located sixty
four miles from the eastern line of Stan
ley County, fifty-four miles from the
northeast corner, fifty miles from the
southwestern corner and the same dis
lance from the northwestern corner, and
