PLACES FOR EVERYTHING.

A really restful, attractive home can
not exist without neatness. How to Sc
cure neatness is one Of the lessons some
housewives have never learned, and not
possessing the secret, they Cannot i'm
pert it to their families. Sometimes a
big mistake is made. in beginning a
home. The wife or husband, or both,
may have lived in one of those clut-
tered up houses most of their lives-a
place in which things in general are just
dropped down in any place at all.
There are homes with a really elegant
exterior and an attractive front en-
trance, in which the living rooms are
in a constant clutter. Window sills are
convenient places for small things. and
you can find spOols of thread, thimbles,
toothbrushes or boxes of pills on them.
Ihe sideboaTd and kitchen cupboard
drawers are stuffed full of wrapping
paper, cord, patterns. etc, miscellan-
eous lot of stuff for which no place
has been provided. It is true that some
homes are sadly lacking in closets and
eupboards, and store room space, but
a neat housekeeper will manage to pro-
vide places for every day things.

NO CUT IN EGG PRICES IS
EXPECTED HERE THIS
SUMMER.

This summer is not likely to see
any reduction in the price of eggs, as
far Is the Washington market is con-
eerned. Despite the efforts of local
commission men to augment their
supply, there has been no appreciabIe
increase in the egg shipments to this
city within the past ten days, ans the
price, always ruled by the law OF sup
ply and demand, has continued ur-
ward.
Another factor in keeping up the
price OF eggs Is the shortage in New
York. which has its effect in the local
market. So far there has been a
shortage of $4,000. O00 dozen in New
York, ana 10 meet the demand much
OF the egg supply which Washington
ordinarily can depend upon has been
diverted TO Maphattan. The expiana-
ton OF this is that New York prices
generally rule higher than locally.
While the shortage of fresh eggs has
increased. the demand for the cold
storage article, there is no dispose
ton TO use the latter because Of the
natural prejudice against anything
considered unreasonable.
