DECORATIONS FOR THE TABLE.
Contrasting Shades Necessary fer
Most Perfect Effects.

Never at any time choose lunch
con table with entirely white decora-
tons. If you choose white carnations
and Roman hyacinths and ferns or
graceful dropping white lilacs, at least
have pink roses at each place, and
pink candle shades and bonbons and
icings on fancy cakes. If violets are
used, or pansies, or purple iris, COM
bine them with just the right shade of
light blue for decoration; the blending
of violet and blue is very charming
when we'll done. In the south or
wherever the large violets grow we'll
violet luncheon can be given, with
whole clumps of violets transferred
to large deep dishes and platters, and
punches of cut violets tied with rib
bons for every guest At one large
fete table was wreathed with a
border of violets. Of course, violets
look best by daylight and not by
artificial light, which makes them ap-
pear so dark.

Success in lroninu Shirts.

Any of the following named sub
stances when put into boiled starch
will help to make the garment iron
smoothly and take gloss: Borax, SUI
gar, salt, wax, lard, turpentine, sper-
maceti. The shirt front is starched
with hot boiled starch in which there
has been mixed one or more of the
above ingredients. 1t is dried, and
then dipped in thin, raw starch. After
few hours it it ironed. A thin piece
of muslin is placed between the
starched surface and the iron. After
the shirt front has been ironed smooth
it is rubbed with a damp cloth, and
then polished with an iron specially
made for this purpose. There must
be great deal of pressure used on
the polishing iron, and practice is re-
quired to do this work we'll. Place a
hard, smooth board under the shirt
front when polishing. Many men OBJ

good condition.
Bedding makes the manure much
more valuable and makes the horses

Every pound of feed above the act

Four or five years is generally the
life of a blackcap patch, but they

broken or rubbed off, it will not. be

HOUSE PLANTS IN WINTER.
Few Little Hints That Are Well Worth
Remembering.

Window plants should be turned
around once a week so that the sun
will strike them on all sides.
IT you are going to keep geraniums
in the windows, be careful to select
only the best varieties
Air, light, warmth and a moderate
supply of water are the essential
things that winter plants require.
All winter plants require plenty of
sunshine. Windows in which they are
kept should never be darkened.
Several bulbs planted in the same
pot will make a much better showing
of color than if planted separately.
Don't forget to have some foliage.
Ferns make excellent winter plants.
They require light, spongy SOIL.
Bulb beds should be we'll. covered
with litter from the barnyard. Ten
inches or foot of such refuse is not
too much.
Half a dozen tubers of the butter
cup oxalis planted in a pot will bloom
all winter producing hundreds of
beautiful yellow flowers.
By melting small cake of hand
soap and adding five quarts of water
an excellent infusion for exterminat-
ing the aphis can be made.
Gladioli and dahlias should not be
left out of doors. They should either
be stored in the shed and covered
with blankets or placed in the cellar

Old-Eashioned MoIasses Candy.

Into a kettle holding about four
times the amount of molasses to be
used put the quantity of molasses re-
CURED, and boil about one-half hour
over rather slow fire, stirring ell the
time and taking off the kettle if there
is any danger of contents running
over, and be careful and not let the
candy burn. When a little dropped
into cold water becomes hard and brit
tie (boiled long enough for this to oc-
cur after trying) add a teaspoon Of
common baking soda free from Jumps

lasses, stir quickly to mix and pour on
platter creased with butter to cool.
When sufficiently cool pull back and
forth (greasing the hands beforehand
with butter) until the candy is a yell
lowish brown color, add flavorlng if
wished.
