her and bestow you love on some one
who viii appreciate it. You will only

The problem Of the hour is to decide
what style of couture we intend to
adopt for the summer season, as, need
less to say, it must harmonic with the
Fascinating hats and toques which are
now arriving from Paris in bewildering
variety, and also it is important that
it should be quite in keeping with the
smart frocks that are destined to be
worn at the afternoon and evening
functions for which ever now we are
making preparations. Undoubtedly the
leading feature of the new coiffures
will be light and graceful clusters of
curls, such as those depicted in the
accompanying illustration.
The low coiffure with the Grecian
chignon of curls is suitable either for
day or evening wear. and the cluster
at the back, fixed to a tortoiseshell
comb so that it can easily be adjusted
at a moments notice, can be supplied
in different sizes, according to the
number of curls required. The front of
the couture can be arranged with ones
own naturally wavy hair, or, where
only a slight addition is required, a
fringe of wavy hair, with or without
little curls on the forehead, can be
used. Little extra curls for the sides
may also be used if desired.
Equally charming in it's W way is
the couture showing curls in the puft
at the side over the temples, n this
will be a very popular style for even
ing wear.

If you wish to draw down tho blind,
yet have the window open, it is a good
plan to have q screw eye in each end
of the curtain, which can be fastened
to the hooks at eacn end of the window
sill. Unless the wind is blowing very
strong this will prevent the disagree
able soun of it's Tapping, yet will adj
init plenty of fresh air.
When ironing, the best thing with
which to rub the irons Is a fairly large
pad of folded brown paper. This will
also serve to test their heat. Besides
this a cloth should be kept at hand on
which to wipe off any flakes of SCOT oil
dirt. A small piece Of wax is excellent
for producing a gloss when rubbed on
the iron, and parafin has he same
effect.
At this season of The year many dis
infectants are used, largely -four sui
phur and roll sulphur (brimstono) o
fumigating rooms. Carbolic acid Is not,
however, recognized as a reliable dis
infectant. The strong odor gives a
false sense of security to the house
cleaners. 1t kills vermin and drives
them away, but it would be necessary
to use the acid in 'arge quantities to
destroy disease germs, and 1t would
be by application and not through the
strong fumes that these germs could
be killed. Stick birthstone, placed in
iron pots and burned in a closed room;
Is more efficacious and will more readi-
ly destroy disease %poisons. There are
more powerful articles, burned with
wood alcohol, but they are prescribed
by health officers. For disinfecting
bed clothing use a solution of sulphate
of zinc and ordinary salt, proportions
four ounces of sulp'1ate of zinc, two
of salt in a gallon IF water. Sulphate
of iron ~(copperas) dissolved in water
is for cleaning drain pipes. Carpets
can be ~fumigated on the floor, but
should be removed Immediately and
| aired in the sun.
When oilcloth has been laid for a
few months and is beginning to lose its
shiny surface it can be renewed and
made to last twice as long. Melt a
little ordinary glue in a pint of water,
letting it stand on the top of the oven
until it is dissolved. Wash the oilcloth
thoroughly and let it dry. Then at
night, when no one will walk on it, go
over the entire surface carefully with
a flame dipped into the glue water.
Choose a dry day for doing it, and by
morning you will have a fine gloss.

SHORT AND
ODD LENGTHS
Tremendous Loss in Lumber
Through Sticking to
Traditional Lengths.

The fact that great waste occurs in
ordinary lumber manufacturing, be-
cause short and odd lengths and
widths are not used has been mainly
blamed on the 1umberman. The truth
is, however, that the lumbernan Is
practically helpless. He can find a
paying market only for the lumber
cut from logs of regulation length,
as called by the builders and arcki
tect=. If specifications were drawn
for the sizes actually used the short
logs would be in demand, and the ire
mendous present waste due TO this
cause would be saved.
This fact has recently been brought
out in connection with the study OF
forest utilization now being made Dv

Conservation commission. One of the

THEY INJURE CHILDREN
Ordinary Carthartics and Pills and

You cannot be over-careful in the

ders. We have such absolute faith ir
the supreme virtues of this remedy
that we sell it on our guarantee OF
money back in every instance where
1t fails to give entire satisfaction. and
We urge all in need of such medicine
to try it at our risk.
Rexall Orderlies contain an entire
ly new ingredient which is odorless,
tasteless and colorless. 1t embraces
all the best qualities of the soothing,
laxative, Strengthening and healing
remedial active principles OF the best
known intestinal regulator tonics.
Rexa1f Orderlies are extremely
pleasant to take, are particularly
prompt and agreeable in action, may
be taken at any time, day or night;
do not cause diarrhoea, nausea, grip
ing, excessive iooseness, Or other IN
desirable effects. They have a very
natural action upon the glands and or
gans with which they come in contact,
act as a positive and regulative tonic
upon the relax, dry muscular coat OF
the bowel, remove irritation, dryness
and soreness, overcome weakness, and
tone and strengthen the nerves and
and restore the bowels and
associate organs to more vigorous and
healthy activity.
Rexall Orderlies not only cure con-

of this ailment. They also overcome
