How to Make
the Home More
AttracttUe

Between furniture and furnishing
there is a subtle difference. not very
apparent. perhaps, on the face of it,
but very perceptibly to be felt in
actual, everyday experience. It is quite
possible to possess good furniture, and
yet for the furnishing of the house to
be wretchedly inadequate or altogether
bad. One may buy or inherit excellently
made, admirably designed chairs, ta-
bles, beds and all the other items OF
pl%enishing, but if the complement for
them be ill-considered in the way of
carpets and draperies, if the element
of color be wanting or inharmonious,
IL the hundred-and-one indescribable
little touches of nattinesss and taste be
lacking, the house canno be described
as well furnished, and the home feeling
will probably not be there. It does not
matter which comes first, furnishing or
furniture; indeed. this is more a matter
of circumstances than anything else,
for the furniture may be there, needing
the furnishing to accord with dt-or, an
easier method of proceeding, on the
whole. the furnishing may be lone first

Is a continuous process, involving the
additions, alterations and replenish-
ments which are as amending as the
stocking and arranging of a garden.

which the mistress of the house ex-
presses her kindly thought for the we'll

on however small a scale 1t may be;
the house in which it is neglected is

MANURE SHED

The idea of covered place where

an excellent one. Almost any sort of
shed will serve, but it is really nearly
as cheap to make an upper story under
the one roof, where straw may be
stored for bedding, and even hay may
be placed. The shed proper should be

HEALTH BOARD
TO HEAR PLANT Of
HUNGRY NURSES
Food Served at City Hospital
Will Be Made Subject OF
Investigation.

The claim Of the forty nurses in the
Nurses Training School at the City
Hospital that they have not been re-
celving proper food will be considered
by the Board Of Health, to which the
nurses petition was addressed. DIR. G..
r. Kent, chairman of the committee
on training schools of the Board of
Health, which will hear the testimony,
said today:
1.-THE committee on training schools,
to which the nurses complaint has
been referred by the Board of Health,
of the conditions existing in the
nurses training school. Just how soon
this will be done l cannot say, although
it Is not likely that we can get around
to it before we return from Washing
ton, where members of the board will
attend the tuberculosis convention.
Il have, however, personally talked
with some of the nurses about the
food which they h~aveSbeen receiving at
the City Hospital. All say hat they
are now receiving the best of service,
though some of them claim that the
food has not always been just what it
should in the past. l am inclined to
believe that this Is true"

Hospital, has left the city on a vaca-
ton. Attendants at the hospital today
were unanimous in their statements
they were satisfied with the food
they received.

continued to drive at a furious pace.

accounts for the big difference in the
vote between the two candidates, and
that this assumption is correct is
shown by a comparison of the Assem-
bly, vote.
Never has the foolishness of split
ting party strength been shown more
distinctly. May this result serve as a
warning to the liberal element. Unity
is a condition of party success, and
where this fails and each man is
seeking popularity the evil cannot be
stayed.
Another highly important phenome-
non is the enormous difference In the
vote of the city and townships.
THE great mass of the voters of
Newark are w~orkingmen, while in the
suburbs are the well-to-do and rich
business men, the majority of them
New Workers, who hold the balance of
power. Newark's population is ex-
tremely cosmopolitan. The immigrant
and his children form the majority,
with the exception of the Eighth,
Ninth and Eleventh wards, while In
the townships the Anglo-American is
in the majority, The division of ma
tionality Is shown in the vote. The
Sunday law fanaticism finds the APP
prevail of the Anglo-American element.
In the first place, because hypocrisy,
the hateful heritage of the English
Puritan, unfortunately adheres to it
still. Secondly, because it's tastes are
different, and thirdly, because the we'll
to-do class within its limits, that class
which runs automobiles and has plenty
of cash, does not look upon Sunday as
a day of recreation. Since Colby and
Morgan are near and dear to this class,
personally and socially. unusual efforts
we're made to secure their nomination,
to a certain extent to show the damned
foreigners that they are the masters.

1.-The difference in the vote also
shows the injustice of allowing the
voters of the township to foist their
views on the Sunday question upon
the great mass of the citizens of the
city. The law should recognize his
difference. or We in Essex county will
