TABLE DRAPERY FOR SUMMER.
Many New and Beautiful Models Seen
This Year.

Dainty napery is an important item
among furnishings for the summer
cottage, AMI though fashions vary but
little in table linens each season sees
some slight changes in designs, or
decoration. Most housekeepers make
no change whatever in dinner cloths
and napkins and use the same napery
as when in town, usually fine damask
hemmed or hemstitched. Drawn work
is always popular as finish for fine
table linen. and many new and beautl-
full models are seen this year. Bor-'
ders so finely worked and drawn as to
appear like a fancy braid inserted,
with corners as fragile looking as
cobweb, decorate dainty doilies, while
holder and heavier patterns ornament
the handsome cloths. Doilies and
table colths are always hemstitched
when trimmed with drawn work. The
former come in sizes from the small
square to be placed under finger bowls
to those measuring 12X12 inches.
Table cloths vary in size from one
yard to two and half yards square,
and come in both simple and elaborate
designs. Every season sees its own
favorite design in damask and this
year the satin spot handsomely Dor
dered predominates. Many women
claim that this kind of a cloth shows
off silver and cut glass better than
any other damask ever woven. The
housekeeper who has to economic
finds the spot and dot patterns prove
less expensive than other designs, for
they can often be matched in case of
an accident to a set, or if some pieces
have become worn before the others.
In buying linen 1t is well to remember
that the unbleached varieties last
longer, as a general rule, than the
bleached and only few washings will
render them perfectly white.

Salt Water for the Eyes.

Salt water, fairly strong, used regu-
larly several times day, will wonder
fully strengthen the muscles of the
eyes. 1t acts as a tonic upon every
part of the under lid and the cornea,
and penetrates deep even into the re-
cesses of the tear gland. Upon eye
lids prone to granulation, or to styes,
the action of warm salt water is most
marked and almost immediate.
The salt bath was tried upon eyes
weakened by long use, that could not
bear the light. yet had excellent sight,
so far as power of vision went, If only
the weakened muscles would allow
the iris to have full play. The salt
bath was tried. first with sponge,
later with the eyes held open in a
basin of salt water, and the result was
restored tone to every feeble muscle

little square tower in the front. And
the different gables agree with the
general plan without discord. 1t Is
easy to imagine such house nest
ling down contentedly among the
trees and vines that we propose to
grow as soon as We can whip the
ground into submission.
You seldom see a plan where the
two porches fit into the general de-
sign al these do. They have the ap-
pearance of growing with the house.
They seem to belong there by right OF
birth and not by adoption. An archi-
tect must be a mechanic, but he must
be an artistic mechanic or his plans
will SAVIOR of utility unadorned.
The side porch of this house is al
most an extra room in summer when
screened as it should be with climb
ers. 1t is a sort of annex to the
kitchen and living room. A woman
who does her own work will take a
good deal of comfort with side porch

a pan of vegetables or fruit to be pre-

feet in the ground, or even deeper,
depending on length of row, with at
least six feet above ground-this
height applies especially to the tall
growing lima and string beans. 1t is
best to sharpen and drive the post,
but if set in hole lamp firmly, and
plant dead-man eight or ten feet
from post in line of row. This may
be large stone or chunk of wood,
buried deep enough to hold the
strain. The dead-man and top post
are connected by two doubled strands
of heavy wire, that may be twisted
with stick in the center totake up
any slack remaining after wires are
stretched and remedy any sag from
strain after vines grow heavy.
Stretch the bottom wires first, ten
to IA inches from the ground, and Sc
curely fasten. Next stretch the top
wire five and a half to six feet from
ground, taking extra care to have it
as taut as ID can be made. Drive
stakes or Strips one by two inches
firmly in the ground along the line
of wire every twenty to thirty feet
and staple both top and bottom wires
to them. These serve to support the
weight of crop and hold the trellis
against winds.
Just before the vines are ready for
the first tying put on the string, or
trellis proper. l prefer some soft
string, such as wool Irvine, which af-
fords the tendril of the plant firm
hold beside being cheap. The distance
that these strings are spaced apart at
top and bottom will depend on the
crop to be trellised; ten to twelve
inches for beans, when plated in
drills and IS to 20 inches for toma-
/ toes. for which heavier Irvine should
be used. In passing over the wire
the Irvine must be knotted TO make it
cling to one place, else the first gust
of wind will blow it into punches and
so make it worthless. The knot that
1 use is. simple, after one gets the
hang" of the twist. Pass the Irvine
up over the wire, carry the ball over
the opposite side and down, then up
and over both the wire and the string

pose and draw taut, when yiu will

not under the wire. that will depend
for its security on the tautness of the
string. The same sort of knot is
made at bottom, except that the move
ment is reversed. Since l have had
considerable trouble caused by the
slipping of the string as a result of
careless workmen, suggest that
enough pains be taken with this part
of the work to insure the permahency
of the Irvine when once placed. II you
will try one Of these easily made trel-
Uses you will find that the satisfac-
ton and ease with which you are able
to gather the crop will more than pay
for the trouble and slight expense in
putting It Up.

rRELLIs FOR GARDEN CROPS.
Is Easily Constructed and Provides
Ample Support for Plants.

After using bean poles, slat frames,
and wooden trellises Of one kind or
another for years; until the supply OF
poles was exhausted and prices for
wooden frames became prohibitive, l
began using a combined wire and
string trellis, such as is shown by the
drawing, says a writer in Farming
This arrangement serves equally as
we'll for either beans tomatoes, peas,
cucumbers (under glass;, or other
climbing plants, being especially de-
sirable for sweet peas, nasturtlums,
fancy gourds, etc. 1t is desirable, too,
because all of the material used In
it's construction, with the exception
of the string, may be used year after
year.
Those who have never trellised up
their tomatoes, either for home use or
for a select market supply, do not
realize what very considerable gain
in yield and quality is secured by this
method. 1 do not hesitate to say
that under ordinary conditions | have
been able to more than double the
yield, and in some cases triple the
marketable product, over the bush
method, to say nothing of the in
crease in quality, which invariably Sc
cures for the grower the top of the
market, it being possible to secure an
earlier and more even ripening and
greater uniformity in the size OF
the fruit; all of which are desirable
factors in gardening for profit. In
tying up, many of the bloomless lat
erals may be cut out, giving the main
vine more strength and allowing the
sun reader access to the fruit to hast
en- ripening. Trellised fruit is always
bright and clean, and almost exempt
from blight and rot. In planting to
matoes for trellising the plants are
set at less than half the distance usua
when grown in the ordinary way.
This trellis may be made to cover
almost any length of row; the longer
the run" the stronger the end posts
and the "dead-man" or guy post viii
need to be. The end posts should be
solid and about nine feet long, so they
may be set two and a half or three

COLLARS OF LINEN
NOT FOR THOSE WHO HAVE
PASSED YOUTHS BLOOM.
Soft Ruches or NeckWear of Muslin
or Lawn Better Suited to the
ElderIy-Transparent White
UndersIeeves.

Starched white linen should be
passed their first youth. The rea-
son is simply because the hard,
smooth texture of the material
contrasts unfavorably and accen-
tuates every wrinkle and bit
of yellowishness or flabbiness In
the skin. Better admit that the fresh
firmness of youth is gone and dress
accordingly than make oneself appear
older by emphasizing the gain OF
years.
For example, there Is scarcely any
type of face in girl, or young wom-
an. to which a linen collar is not be-
coming. The severe white line Win
smart tie, large or small, is chic, and
1t is this fact which accounts for such
collars not going out of fashion.
Put this kind of neck finish about
the throat of a woman who Is past
middle age and she looks "scraggy
and passe. For her soft ruches should
be considered a necessity of life, or,
in their stead, white collars made, OF
bias folds of soft muslin or lawn.
One of the most becoming, and at
the same time inexpensive, ties that
can be worn is made with width OF
null three-quarters of a yard long
The ends should be rolled and wash
lace four inches in width gathered on
with double the fullness.
That completes the neckpiece, but
the knack lies in the way it is put on.
Instead of holding it so that the ends
will be straight across, pull them SO
that they are bias. Fasten a separate
white collar foundation on the neck,
and then pull the tie so that 1t be-
comes the width of the collar Put
this under the chin and cross at the
back, where it should be held in the
middle with a fancy little pin. Bring
the two ends around front and you will
find that they hang long and pointed.
Tie these ends in two common knots,
one after the other, the second form
ing a SQUARE knot. That leaves the
two ends hanging like jabot, an eff

lowerpoints are pinned invisibly to
the waist.
For the reason that hands betray
age or illness by becoming wrinkled
or scraggy, stiff cuffs should be avoid
ed by all but the young. Soft frills
must be used instead.
The reign of elbow sleeves is so
complete that it takes a brave woman
to give it no heed. Yet better that
one should ignore it than spoil ones

which these short sleeves usually
make. This is due to the fact that

It is because the germs OF the disease
have been carried into the house by
flies during the late summer and early
fall when the flies are the worst and
the nasty stuff that they wallow In in
out of the way places is more abun-
dant. They come straight from de-
caying carrion to the kitchen If they
can get inside. Fly screens are not
expensive. The protection they az
ford saves dollars where you figure
the expense in dimes.
Unfortunately some women have
never learned how to use fly screens
and some men are so careless as to
have them put on in very shiftless
manner, leaving window cracks for
the flies to crawl through and by fit
ting doors so they won't shut tight.
The way fly screens are made and
used in some houses they are worse
than none at all because they shut the
flies in, and you often have more flies
inside than you could find outdoors.
Then there are women who would mis-
use the best set of fly screens ever
put on a house. 1t is easy to keep
house clear of flies If the men will
provide good screens and the women
learn how to use them. I know OF
houses that never have more than a
dozen flies at a time, and they are
not permitted to stay very long. They
may slip in while the work is going
on in the kitchen in the morning, but
they are driven out and shut out for

BROUGHT DEBTORS TO TIME.
Lads Death Source of Financial Gain
to Father.

OF course the man didn't look at
it that way, but his bereavement was
really source of financial gain. 1t
was a son who died-a boy of 10.
He was killed in a street accident.
The fatality touched the public heart
strangely. He had been a popular
boy, and his death aroused the SYM
pathy of the neighbors for blocks
around. The father was small
tradesman, who went on the principle
that all mankind was honest. He
trusted right and left. He had be-
come creditor to two-thirds of the peo-
pie in the neighborhood. Many OF
those debtors were sharks. who, either
because of financial disability or
naturally dishonest propensities,
probably had no intention of ever pay
ing up, but with the news of the lads
death all experienced a change OF
heart. When the shop reopened after
the funeral the dazed proprietor en-
tertained a stream Of callers.
81 am so sorry" they said,, one and
all; then they added, half-sheepishly
81 owe you so and So" and planked
down the money.
In some cases the shopkeeper got
money that had been due more than
a year, and he piled up dollars in cash
that, only for the sympathy called
forth by his bereavement, would have
been a dead loss.

Care In FEEDING.

If the hogs are in dry pen, start
in by feeding them a little green
clover at once. AS soon as the corn
is hip high, give them a little of it to
eat. 1t may not add a single ounce of
flesh to their carcasses. but it will
accustom them to eating it so they
can be fed a great deal Of green corn
when it becomes large enough. The
one great mistake in feeding green
corn is that the change from dry feed
to it is made too quickly. BY start
ing in gradually now with corn and
green clover, this rapid change can be
avoided.

to it that this porch is properly fitted
for the purpose.
One of the greatest luxuries is a set
Of wire screens fitted fly-tight to be
hooked on in summer time. OF course
there will be a screen door entering
the kitchen, but flies learn quickly
that the screen door is the entrance
to the savory part of the house, and
thsy VIII sit there and watch their
opportunity to slip in when the door
is opened. II you don't believe 1t sit
out there some day and watch them,
then put up a screen around the
porch and watch the flies sit on the
outside waiting for the side to open
up. You will see the worst fooled lot
OF flies in the neighborhood.
incidentally, this screening Of the
kitchen porch is a great prevention
against sickness. More contagious
diseases are carried into the house by
flies than in any other way in the
summer time. You have noticed the
increase in typhoid fever in the fall.
