How to Keep Clothes Neat.

1t Is being tumbled about on chairs
or being heaped up one above the other
on hooks, on doors and In ~cupboards,
which ruins clothes most, and not the
actual wear to which they are SUBJ
jected. 1t Is an excellent plan to hang
up skirts and bodices, but not on hooks
or peg in the usual style. Instead one
should take a hin from the shop
keeper and note how all their ready
made garments are stored. If you cam
not get the proper "coat-hangers' used
in shops you al make a good substi-
tute out of barrel hoops. Half a hoop

thus treated, being apt to become drag

folded with plenty of paper in the
creases and trimmings, and laid away
in a box or drawer. Skirts should al
ways be freed from dust or mud before
being put away.

AttracttUe

The Kitchen Floor.


Those who have made a failure in
evenly distributing stain upon the
kitchen floor have found that the wood
takes" the stain much better If an
hour before the stain is applied the
floor is wiped with a damp cloth.
When the stain or filler is applied, 1t
must be rubbed we'll into the wood and
made to blend the very same as paint.
When vanished the first coat should
be just as thin as possible, and it
should be thoroughly dried before a
second coat is applied. Three coats of
paint or varnish will not be too much
for a floor not previously stained or
painted. 1t Is not necessary to scrub
a floor SO often after this process.
though a kitchen floor may need to be
washed at intervals. Very little alkali
should be used only where grease spots
are found and white soap will make
them disappear. For every day clean
Ing the brush-broom may be used and
the dust is easily taken up with a soft
cotton mop, wrung dry from warm
water. To clean a floor with a polish
have a mixture of one-third turpentine
and two-thirds boiled linseed oil. Ap-
ply sparingly with a light brush, and
then rub 1t in. Never use coal oil: ii
holds dust and dirt and gets sticky If
too often used. 1t will also ruin the
finish.

THE LIGHTNING ARTIST.
" ERE is a dainty little trick by
which you may successfully fool

TT ERE is a dainty little trick by
which you may successfully fool
a number of your friends, who
cannot possibly detect the deception II
you are at all careful about 1t.
Get q picture of some size; say about
three feet square, although a much
smaller one will do. This picture may
be a painting, on a regular painters
canvas, or a colored print If you cannot
obtain the former. If you selec a print
mount it carefully by pasting it on a
piece of stiff, white cardboard so that
the edges of the white cardboard project
some inches beyond the outside of the
picture.
Now take a piece of chalk and pow
der 1t very carefully till it is as fine as
dust. Now spread this powdered chalk
all over the picture till it is completely
covered, and so thickly that it does not
show through anywhere, but presents
a clear, white surface. Get an easel
on which to stand your picture, some
paint brushes and a painters palette
on which are some various colored
paints. all hard and dry, so that they
will not stain anything, and you are
ready for the trick.
DO not let your riends come too
near the easel, but seat them at the
other end of the room. On the Ledge
OF the easel on which your picture rests
must be a small glass of water. Dip
your brush in this, pretend to mix the
naints on your palette and begin to
make brush strokes on h picture. The
moistened brush will bring away the
white covering of chalk, and as yon
continue to a strokes with your
brush, the picture will appear, looking
exactly as If you were painting 'he
colors on the white surface.
In a very few minutes the chalk viii
be entirely gone and the complete pic
ture will stand forth for your friends
to gaze at and admire.

A Foolish Correspondence.
Dear Margery Doom
I am a young lady of %, and have
been corresponding with a young man

duced by letter through a mutual
friend, and of late our letters have
become more than interesting. Now he
wants to come and see me, and says I
have no right to refuse to see him,
after having written so often. l do
not know what he looks like, as | have
never even seen his picture, My friend
says he is very good looking, but | do
not want to see him, as l go with a
fellow anyway. VIII you please tell me
what to do to get out of this scrape.
which 1 was a fool to get in, and l will
will always be grateful.
COUNTRY MAID.
Indeed you were foolish to start such
a correspondence. No wonder he wants
to see you. The best thing you can do
is to write once more. telling him that
you realize how ridiculous the CORE
spondence has been, under the circum-
stances, and stating that once for all
you want to end the whole thing. Tell
him you do not care to have him call.
1t is the only course for you to take.

Health and Beauty
For Ebery Woman
To Keep the Neck Looking Young.
Importance of Correct Breath
ing and Massage.
BY MADAME ALTA.

The woman who is blessed with a
good neck and shoulders need only try
to keep the flesh smooth and white,
which can be lone with no special et-
fort.
Her less fortunate sister, whose neck
is scrawny and hollow must work hard
to improve conditions.
Of course, If the lines of h Shout
ders are a little can be done to better
them.
But smooth white flesh cover a mass
of defects, and flesh Is lot impossible
to any who will take the trou-
BILE to acquire 1t.
Deep breathing and massage will do
wonders in improving the neck, but.
in addition, one must exercise special
muscles.
To get the best results 1t Is important
to build up more than the meek mus
cles."
All the chest muscles should be
strengthened, the throax should be
widened and deepened and the muscles
along the spine must be made strong,
as they assist to keep the chest arched
and the head erect. ,
