The hostess asked each guest to
bring a basket of some description.
AS the "a guests were all intimate
friends they consulted among them
selves, so the selections made did
not include duplicates. There was a
stunning brown Wistaria waste bas-
ket; one Of same, weave to hold fruit /;
a market basket made by a Dutch
peasant; a clothes basket; tiny COW
cred basket to hold a thimble. This
was in a round work basket that also
had scissors shield woven to match.
There was a clothes hamper, and a
cunning covered basket with a handle,
just large enough to hold a lunch for
two.
To go with these baskets there was
a tea or coffee rest woven of sweet
grass to use when serving on the
porch, and quaint wall holders in
which tumbler could be inserted to
hold wild flowers. The honored guest
was perfectly delighted with this
shower, for it turned out that baskets

told them she wanted their very best
ideas regarding house building; that
for the two best plans there were
prizes.
Paper and pencils were passed and
a half hour allotted for the architects
to turn in their creations. The result
was delightful. Each one was allowed
five minutes to explain the merits of
her plan. Some remarkably clever
ideas were developed and much I'M
suspected talent revealed. The prizes
were subscriptions to well-known mag

and the favors were tiny wooden Jap

refreshments there were canteloupes

In many stables the ventilation pro-
vided is largely the result of accident
rather than of a prearranged plan.
The idea seems to be not how to ad-
nit supply of pure, fresh air but
how to keep it out. AS consequence
the animals are breathing over and
over again the same air which gradu-
ally becomes poisoned with an excess
of carbonic acid. Moreover, the at

much of either? Three other re-

its action; the more stock in the

sufficiently large to be used as feed

causes the whole system to go on

rule that the total area of foul air
shafts should be from one-fifth to one
tenth greater than the area of inlet
