In these days when the baby Is out
of doors practically all the time his
mother wants to be assured of his
safety and comfort. One of the big
shops Is showing a canvas pen made
with strong framework of wood
with sides. high enough to prevent the
baby from climbing out unless he is
particularly acrobatic.
The pen is so arranged with ropes
Mt each corner that it may be raised
off the floor Of the porch or room to
keep the baby entirely out of draft
The canvas floor has enough spring to
it to be entirely comfortable to sleep
on and is big enough to allow the
baby plenty Of room to creep about In,
Equipped with such an arrangement
a mother would be spared many hours
of fretting with q small child. not to
speak of the unnecessary handling the
baby would be spared,

CoIeridoe's Imaqination,

From his early youth Coleridge lived
in world of books and dreams, yet
his favorile walk seems to have been
the Strand. the last place in the world
for poet TO lose himself in reverie.
AS he strOled down the street he i'm
agined himself swimming the Helles-
pont. the feat of which other poets
had written and which the poet Byron
was to accomplish later Once while
the mind of Coleridge was thus far
from the busy Strand he absently
thrust his hands before him in the
manner of one swimming. Suddenly
one hand came in contact with gen
teman's pocket.
The gentleman. thinking to capture
a thief. seized the hand and exclaimed:
"Wbat. so young and so wicked.
He accused the poor, poetic boy of an
attempt at pocket picking
With some fright and a few tears
the boy explained. and we can mag
inc that words did not fail him who
was to become the most brilliant talk
er of his age The gentleman was de-
lighted with Coleridse's Imagination.

Hellespont. The intelligence of the
young Leander made the stranger in

he found the boy liked books he open

When wife or daughter makes a to-
bacco pouch for the pater he's always
delighted. A pretty pouch in rich
brown or dark green, lined with a
maroon silk. would be attractive when
the edges are pinked and draw
string of heavy silk with long tassels
run In near the top. It's not the kid,
the lining or the cord that makes these
bags so unusual, for without the mon
ogram or crest done In gilt thread or
In bright colored silks the pouches,
aside from being handmade, would be
quite the same as those bought in the
shops. But with an attractive emblem
or two or three initials prettily en-
broidered in one corner the pouches
are presents any man, no matter how
surfeited with gifts, would be glad to
receive at Christmas.

THE VALUE OF TIME.
Making Every Moment Count the Sc
cret of a Successful Life.

Making Every Moment Count the Sc
cret of Successful Life.
The average woman does not appre-
ciate the value Of time.
She is rushed and heated and over
worked because she does not make the
spare MOMENTS count,
have seen women sit whole morn
ing idle and then rush madly around
nll the afternoon, undoing all the good
work of that rest.
When you sit down to chat with
friend. why don't you do some simple
sewing. such as finishing seams, sew
ing on buttons or adjusting loose
hooks?
You will need to do all these things
later on. and probably they will come
up at the very time when you have
an engagement to keep. II you are
late for that engagement it puts you
back for the entire day.
Before you go to bed at night lay
out your clothes for the next morning
See that you have clean shields In your
waist, fresh tie and collar and that
your shoes are polished.
And don't throw your things around.
You take more time hunting for them
than you would take in putting them
where they belong.
Don't waste your days with people
that do you no good. Associate with
those who stimulate you mentally or
aid you to rise in the world. 1t isn't
necessary to be snob or a climber
to do this. The idea is not to make
companions Of those inferior to you,
That is sheer waste of time that
had better he spent at home resting.
When you work don't allow people
to walk In Oh you and make you lose
precious MINUTES If you must meet
them do so ut certain hours, Keep the
rest of the day to yourself In order
that you may concentrate fully and in
that way finish your work quicker
with less labor on your part.
Learn to make time work for you
and you will always accomplish every
thing you have to do.
The women who are the most rushed
and flustered are not the hardest work
ed. They are the ones who waste the
most minutes.

gift that an ingenious woman who is
clever with carpenters tools can make.
This present is Il novel pipe rack. 10
make the rack procure four boards
from carpenter-twoe eighteen inches
long by six inches wide and two eight
cen inches long by five inches wide.
In one of the latter pieces get car
penter to bore four holes three-eighths
of an inch in diameter and running
lengthwise in the board. The two end
holes are four inches from the ends OF
the board, and all of the holes are two
and half inches apart. The two
larger boards are joined together by
means Of braces, which screw on the
backs with very small screws, Five
inches from the top of the longer side
is fastened the board with the holes in
It. so that it makes shelf on the first
piece. Then, five inches below this, Is
fastened the other board in the same
manner as the firstly means Of
screws from the back. The rack Is fin
ished as far as the carpentering goes.
The upper shelf is for the pipes. the
holes being made for them to rest In,
while the lower shelf is for tobacco
boxes, matches. etc.
The next thing is to stain it the pop
ular mission color. Then get screw
eyes and put them on the back, and
through these put picture wire to hang
1t by. The hardest thing is to print
above the first shelf, "A Mans Best
Friend" Paint the letters with gold
paint. which sets off the dark color OF
the wood and gives the rack finished,
decorative appearance.
