W0MAN'S OWN FIELD
is ART DESIGNING

There is today a cry for means Of
livelihood open to the woman who has
been brought up in luxury, unac-
quainted with routine work. Art de-
signing suggests one occupation whose
possibilities have not yet been over
developed. AS a moderate amount of
artistic ability may be made adequate,
at least to start with, and no outlay of
expense is necessary, art designing is
peculiarly adapted to suit the need OF
those who have not been trained to
any line of work.
An eye for color and originality are
the important requirements Attrac-
tive designs for dress silks, wall pa
pers, carpets, sofa pillow tops, and
other fittings for a house, as well as
the finer and smaller articles, are all
within the scope of this occupation.
There Is an increased demand FOR do
nestle designs, and some of the most
fascinating patterns of this, as well as
for the past three or four seasons, In
silks have originated in the United
States. The foreign designs, however,
always have an assured value, and
from one of their ideas the clever
American designer may develop a half
dozen Originals" or more.
The developing of dainty designs for
handkerchiefS, waists, collars, menus,
programs, and similar things, wherein
a woman's ideas should be worth
something, are all in line. In linen, all
the patterns for the beautiful dam
asks have largely come from America.
The American design is submitted
here, passed upon, and, IL accepted,
sent on to Belfast or other looms, to
be returned in table cloths and nap
kins to match. Just at present there
is demand for conventional patterns,
succeeding that of two years ago for
natural floral designs, and there is
tendency to do away with the border.
or else to have it merely an emphasized
extension of the pattern that forms
the center decoration.
To any one interested in this art de-
signing, there are several ways open
for obtaining instruction, and some of
the schools are in touch with certain
manufacturers who buy designs done
by the pupils which are considered of
sufficient merit.
Salaries, where services are employed
by the week, are perhaps not more
than SIS to beginners, but advance
ment is rapid and the pay increases
accordingly, this especially where
there is a marked degree of originality
shown. A god wall paper design brings
from $25 to $780, handkerchief designs
S. and so on. The occupation offers
steady employment once one is fairly
started, for patterns in all materials
change continually, and there is such
competition to obtain something out of
the ordinary that there is literally no
slack in the market.

HOW TO KEEP ICE WATER

When there is sickness in the house,
particularly when the patient mas
fever, one of the greatest troubles is TO
keep ice water upstairs. The constant
running about that nurse usually
does is generally more firing than the
actual caring for the patient, and the
keeping of ice water upstairs, where
it can be readily reached, will save
many a hurried trip to the pantry or
basement, where the refrigerator is
usually kept.
The following method of keeping ice
water upstairs is very good and has
the added, advantage of entailing no
expense: Fill pitcher with ice and
water and place in the center of
newspaper; gather the newspaper at
the four corners, bringing them to-
gether at the top; twist the ends tight
ly together so as to exclude the air,
and place a rubber band tightly around
them. A pitcher of water treated in
this manner will last through COM
plete night, with scarcely perceptible
loss of ice. Paper is a most excellent
nonconductor of heat and cold, and
this same plan may be used in keeping
things warm, although the paper will
not retain heat as long as cold.

ONCE In A WHILE

Once in while the sun shines out,
And the arching skies are a perfect blue;
Once in a while mid clouds of doubt
Hopes brightest stars come peeping through.
Our paths lead down by the meadows fair,
Where the sweetest blossoms nod and smile,
And we lay aside our cross OF care
Once in a WHILE
Once in while within our own
We clasp the hand of a steadfast friend;
Once in while We hear tone
OF love with the hearts own voice to blend;
And the dearest of all our dreams come true.
And on life,s way is golden mile;
Each thursting flower is kissed with dew
Once in WHILE
Once in a while in the desert sand
We find spot of the fairest green;
Once in a while from where we stand
The hills of paradise are seen;
And a perfect joy in our hearts we hold,
A joy that the world can not defle;
We trade earth's dross for the purest gold.
Once in while
NIXON WATERMAN.

HOW TO COLOR EASTER EGGS

Although the shops are filled with
eggs of every size, material and style
of decoration, the average child feels
aggrieved if not allowed to do some ar
tistic work on his own account with a
genuine "hen laid" egg as the founda-
ton. While dyes for coloring eggs can
be purchased cheaply, beautiful color
ings can be obtained at home without
money and without price. The skin of
an onion boiled for a few moments
gives good shade of red or orange,
saffron gives yellow, and spinach or
parsley a delicate green. If a flower
pattern is desired piece of new calico
wrapped smoothly around the egg and
then boiled will leave color and pattern
behind. If different name or motto
is desired upon the tinted egg, write
with liquid fat on the shell of the egg.
and let 1t stand long enough to "set"
before putting in the dye. This keeps
the shell from taking the color wher-
ever the tracing was applied, and the
motto name or picture comes out in
pure white.-April Delineator.

ARouT EARRINGS

Paris says that earrings are seldom
worn, and that pendants are now the
reigning favorite in the line of jewel
ry; but here the leader of the world
makes some mistake, for never have
earrings been more popular in this
country. At the opera and on all for
NAL occasions we find the women with
huge barbaric hoops of diamonds in
their ears, while there will also be
very many wearing small pearls, and
depending from them, on the lightest of
platinum chains, will CLEAN tiny dia-
monds.
These novelties are very lovely, and
if madame is learned in the art of &C.
quiring the best effects, she will be
able, merely by the choosing of her
earrings, to impart the desired hue
to the skin.
Blondes should, of course, wear tur-
quoise, while the woman with the per-
feet complexion will be delighted by
the result of pearls in her ears.
For the pale brunette, nothing could
be more effective than the red coral,
while for evening she may seem to
possess the most gloried coloring If
she wear pendent earrings of ruby
red.

much at one time only stirs up difficult
ty with the digestive organs.
Fresh, pure buttermilk is given ty-
phoid patients when nothing else can be
retained, and the most delicate stom-
achs can stand it when everything else
has failed.
During the period OF sleep the brain.
being inactive, does not send out its
supply of nervous fluid as in waking
hours, and consequently all the func-
tions of life go on slower and the sys-
tenn has not its full power. This Is
shown by the respiration, which is
slower during sleep than at other
times. OF course, the stomach shares
in this temporary dimirfution of power.
Though many persons have strong
stomachs so that they can digest food
we'll even in the feebler hours of sleep,
still it is imposing labor on the stomach
at a wrong time. This is especially in
furious to such as have weak consti-
tuition or weak digestive powers. The
rule, then, is important: Let two or
three hours intervene between eating
and sleeping.
The carriage of the figure is even
more important than the lines of the
figure itself. beautiful figure poorly
carried shows none of it's beauty, while
a poor figure well carried with grace
and dignity gives distinction which is
In itself beautiful. To acquire a good
carriage it is necessary to study the re-
quired pose carefully in the mirror, to
then remember to take that pose when
ever rising from a chair, and to hold it
steadfastly. 1t requires a constant
watchfulness which makes one self
conscious at first, but in time becomes
a habit-shoulders back and down, alb
domen in, head up and chin in.
Why do you scowl?
Does it improve your looks? Not even
so much as the thundercloud in a sum-
mer sky, for it, at least, gives signs of
the sun behind.
Does it add to your popularity? Not
while a sunny disposition Is the winner
as friend maker and keeper.
Does it heighten your charms? Not
to those who count sullenness the dead
lest fault a woman can have.
Does 1t boost your chances in life?
Not with the man who has ever had
the i'll luck to employ sulky worker.
Does 1t keep you young looking? ASK
the masseuse, who has to wage war on
that heavy line between the eyes and
the crows feet at the corners.
Does it make life sweeter? The sweet
ening power of a scowl is as salt in the
sugar bowl or vinegar in the molasses
jug.
Does 1t make things easier? About as
easy as sand on ballroom floor, or
running an unoiled jigsaw.
Does it pay? Not until crossness be-
comes currency for content and frown
is pacemaker for smile.-Phfladelph

Los ANGELES VS.. CHICAGO

While. Los Angeles is considering the
advisability of adopting the not very
gentle policy of putting UP the bars
against all persons afflicted with tuber-
culosis, in all cases where such persons
are sent there by charitable organiza-
tons, Chicago is preparing to submit
to the people of the city the PROPOSE
ton of providing means with which to
build and maintain one of the finest
and best equipped tuberculosis sani-
tariums in the world.
No doubt Los Angeles has suffered a
great deal on account of the presence
there in large numbers of impoverished
tubercuIar patients; but Chicago's way
of dealing with the problem is the
right way, and it is the way every
American city should follow.-Seattle

A SUBURBAN BREAKFAST TABLE

Coffee cup and roll in hand
And fifty seconds late,
Father breakfasts on the run
To catch the 7:0S.
Nibbling at a soft boiled egg
And hoofing might and main,
Mother breakfasts as she speeds
To catch the shoppers train.
Carrying his bowl of mush
And double-quicking far,
Tommy breakfasts as he hikes
To catch the high school car.
Thus for suburbs 1t would seem
Though revenues are lax,
No breakfast tables will be found
On which to lay a tax

A little gold amidst the gray
That's sunshine;
A little brightness on the way
That's sunshine;
A little spreading Of the blue.
A little widening of the view.
A little heaven breaking through
That's sunshine.
A little looking for the light
That's sunshine;
A little patience through the night
That's sunshine;
A little bowling Of the will,
A little resting on the hill,
A little standing very still
That's sunshine.
A little smiling through the tears
That's sunshine;
A little faith behind the fears
That's sunshine;
A little folding of the hand,
A little yielding Of demand.
A little grace to understand
That's sunshine.
