Resolutions

Golden Rule Chapter, Number II,
Order of the Eastern Star.
Our worthy brother, George w. Lee,
having been called from his labors of
love and usefulness on earth to fill a
higher and a nobler' sphere. W. deem it
proper as a fraternal order to proffer to
his family and their friends a fitting
tribute to the higher character of our de-
parted brother.
His virtues as a husband and father,
his integrity in business, his faithfulness
as a friend, and his steadfast honesty in
public life all tend to round out a charac-
ter approaching perfection.
We therefore direct that a memorial
page be inserted in our journal, and that
our chapter be draped in mourning
for a period of thirty days.
We extend our sympathy and condo
lence to his bereaved family, and beg
leave to admonish his friends and ac-
quaintances to emulate his noble charac-
ter and useful life.

SMART THINGS TO WEAR
WITH THE TAILOR=MADES

We severe tailor-made costume for
morning wear, to which womankind
has given all her allegiance, naturally
demands a supply of new blouses and
shirts of the freshest and most attrac-
tive description, and couturieres have
been by no means idle in this respect,
in view of the coming spring activity.
Stripes will be used to a great extent
in this connection, especially Delft blue
and white and cinnamon and white, a
new idea being to work the material
over a huge darned pois in common
white Berlin wool, which has a capital
effect when seen from a distance.
Where these morning shirts are con-
cerned, a return has been made to the
simple turnover collar of hand-em-
broidered lawn, with cuffs to match,
the narrow stock tie of padded velvet
in tubular form, hung with little clus-
tiers of coarsely-worked crochet balls,
suggesting a bunch of cherries, being
quite a feature of the blouse, and de-
signed in a Contrasting shade. With a
cinnamon and white shirt a tie of pale
orchid or Marie Louise mauve is
chosen, as we'll as lily-leaf or lettuce
green and Natter blue.

RAIN THAT is NOT RAIN.

In the Colorado DESERT there are
sometimes transforms during which no
a drop of water touches the ground.
The rain may be seen falling from the
clouds high above the desert, but when
the water reaches the stratum of hot,
dry air beneath the clouds, il is entire
Iy absorbed before falling half the dis
lance TO the earth. 1t is Il singular
sight 10 witness a heavy downpour of
rain disappear like magic in the air.
The phenomenon occurs in regions
where the temperature in the shade
reaches as high as 12S degrees, and it
is. of course, tho great heat that turns
the water into vapor.

DYEING GRAY HAIR.

Do you think it wrong to dye the
hair when it turns gray too early? I
am only 80, and my hair is getting very
gray. AS it is dark the gray hair
shows plainly. I would like to dye it.
but do not know whether to or not.
Please tell me your opinion.
A READER.
Personally, I am a great admirer of
graz hair. I think that when 1t is
glossy from much brushing there is
nothing quite SO pretty. OF course.
with this opinion, I would not be sin
cere in advising you to dye it. But r
am sure it would not be wrong. You
should be sure hat the dye is pure
and harmless before you put it on
your hair. At best it is a risky ex-
pertinent.

HoqU to Make
the Home More
AttractfUe

If you wish to keep the refrigerator
clean and sweet smelling do not place
onions, bananas or fish in it, or every
article of food will absorb the odors.
If there are metallic parts never place
steaming foods in the apartments with
out afterward airing the box. The
dampness not only causes rust, but is
instrumental in causing mould.
Frequently lowers will begin to
droop and their leaves fall off without
any reasonable cause. If the roots are
not crowded, the chances are that some
worm is eating them. One of the most
effective methods for DISCRIMINATING the
pests is to pour a strong solution of
ammonia water around the plant roots.
1t must be sufficiently strong to drive
the insects to the surface of the soil,
where they may be easily killed. The
ammonia will not in1ure the plant, but
acts as a mild fertilizer.
To remove bad odors from a room,
burn a piece of dried orange peel on a
hot. howell or old tin. The odor will
disappear, leaving q pleasant n in Its
/ place, Burned coffee is also effective.
Badly furnished brass may be cleaned
with ease IL it is first rubbed with -alt

Great changes can be made in the APP
pearance of a room by dressing the

Used in a bedroom or a room furnished

tional patterns with red, ray or dark
green grounds are generally chosen for
living-rooms. Very lovely for this pur-
pose are the French cretonnes i'm the

Then there are French shadow tapes
tries alike on both sides, the best of
which are in floral patterns of the
Louis periods and other foreign impor-
tations covered with designs in dark,
rich colors representing a jungle of
foliage and tropical birds through
which glimmers a white background.
There are also cretonnes in hunting or
forest scenes that are most attractive.

he will be glad to do so. The difference
