Ways by Which Best Results Can Be
Obtained.

with the best pipe clay, which must
be dampened before using.
Patent leather shoes should first be
wiped dry with a soft cloth before.

wiped with a soft cloth dipped in
warm soapy water
little vaseline should be applied
from time to time, especially after a

Ing II over, the man saw that IL was
addressed to Cynthia in his own we'll
remembered hand. There was q
strange clutching at his heart when he
took out the tearstained bit of lace
paper, with its cupids and it's roses,
and read again the foolish little verse.
Ii was two mornings later. Cynthia
stood by window in her room looking
listlessly out at the snowy expanse of
lawn. Her stolen watch had been re.
covered the day before, but her ebony
box had not been found, and she could
not well advertise for a box containing
al old valentine.
She had heard that Harold was at
home, and looking well and particular
ly happy. but she had not seen him
She must look happy, too, when they
should meet. for she would rather die
than have him guess how her heart
ached.
The door-bell rang sharply and she
heard some one go through the lower
hall TO answer the ring, but she did
not take notice of what was happen.

SHADE FOR THE CANDLE
Pretty and Novel Affair by No Means
Hard to Make.

So many persons find the light from
. candle or lamp trying on the eyes
that they always insist on shades Of
some sort.
pretty and novel affair for a
candle may be made OF strong wire
bent into a rectangular shape. six
inches wide at the bottom, with the
inner side IL inches tall and the
outer seven and one half. This will
give a decided slope to each top.
Make two of these frames and
cover them neatly with silk muslin
OF very thin liberty silk.
This cover may then be painted
or 1t can be studded in conventional
design in seQuins. Tie the backs to-
gether with bows of narrow ribbon
for hinges, and around the top and
two shorter sides sew . box.platins
Of narrow lace.
The candle is, OF course, placed be-
tween the two leaves when they are
opened wide. Extreme care must be
taken to observe this precaution. As
fre might easily result from such
infiammable materials in close proxim
tty to flame.

SECRET CLUBS
Meriden School Board Does Not
 Sanction Such Societies

The action of the board of educa. tion of Meriden in regard to secret "frats" in the high school recalls the organization which at one time ex- isted in the local high school under the name of Theta Sigma. Although lit did not last very long, for time it was strong although as in the ma- ljority of high schools in the state 1t did not have the sanction of the faculty.
 The secret fraternity in the Meri- den school always was considered as having a large amount of influence. At one time 1t was going along hav- ing things pretty much its own way. Shortly after, it's rooms were entered one evening and the furnishings for the most part destroyed. and a teach- CT is said to have done the heavy work. The formation of the local branch of Theta Sigma was organized as the result of trips to Meriden of the football and baseball teams of Crosby high. Although the society was not formed to buck the faculty
 
 as many thought, the latter were of the opinion that 1t was not a good thing for the school but made no real effort to make the lot of the mem bers any more difficult than that of other students. It disbanded because of the original members, for the most part. leaving or graduating from school.
 Frats" have become very popular throughout the high schools of the state the past few years and not only the young men but even the members Of the fair sex have formed fraterni- ties for the purpose of sociability and clique work. Although as yet they have done no real harm in the schools of this state, at least the faculties as we'll as the board of education. fol- lowing in the footsteps of the Chicago board of education where secret fra ternities for time had the schools almost under their thumb. are mak- Ing crusade against them.
