THAT night, remember, all going up to
the Parkers' country place to barn dance. Their
great stable was lighted with lanterns and trimmed
with festoons of c'enatis and punches of daisies
Punch was ladled with tin dpper from milk pals,

to me.
When got home that night l reviewed the Incl
dents of the day, and really, couldn't see where
had made much progress. We had taken the course
that Petes fertile brain had planned, and there
going back; but it made me writhe mentally, to
think of Nell's intellect being thrown away upon
chap like Pete, who frankly preferred a fivecent
magazine to Maeterlinck and vowed that he'd rather
listen to one piece of ragtime than to all the
bined composers of classical stunts And as for me

HOUSEHOLD NOTES
BY Msuds E. cilIsy.

Canvas shoes may be cleaned with
soap and water, If one works quickly,
so that the moisture does not penetrate
the canvas. Make a thick lather of
pure white soap and warm water.
In scaling a fish, hold It under the
water to keep the scales from flying.
The scaling may be much more easily
done If the fish is first dipped for an
instant into boiling water.
For a refreshing desert, partly fill
sherbet glasses with vanilla ice cream.
Put over each service a spoonful of
very sweet currant jam and cover with
a pyramid of whipped cream.
Excellent butter may be made in a
small ice cream freezer, but care
should be taken that there is not a
particle of rust in the can, and 1t
should be polished until it shines.
When cold halibut is left from din
ner, cut it into slices large enough for
individual plates, put them on salad
plates with slices of tomato and green
pepper, and serve with mayonnaise.
Washing lamp ehimneys by immers-
ing them I'm hot water often makes
them brittle. A safer way to clean
them is to hold them for few min
utes over a steaming. Then polish
briskly with a soft cloth.
If a hardwood floor is sticky after
being treated with boiled oil and tur-
1 pentine, get a pail Of strong cider vim
egar, wiring cloth out of this and
wipe the floor with It. It will cause
great improvement.
If a ham that is to be broiled fol
breakfast is allowed to soak over

flavor If it is not too salty, the mill

place it in a pan in the refrigerator
with about an ounce of olive oil, int,
which has been stirred half table

There is no uncertainty as to the
edict of the French style specialists
regarding fall fashions. They have
drawn the line, and it is perpendicular.
Straight, straighter. straightest are
the new lines for coats, skirts and
sleeves.
This, according to Grace Margaret
Gould, writing in the Fall Fashion
number OF the Woman's Home Com
( panion. means a lot to American wo-
men, but will be accepted only accord
! ing to its practibility.
No woman in the world cares more
to be in style than the American wo-
man. She appreciates that the French
have inherited taste. that they fairly
breathe charm and that the ideas
that come from Paris are generally
! speaking, good ones. But she looks
upon these ideas as suggestions. not
edicts. What is possible in style she
will follow, but she will think long and
/ seriously of herself, her advantages
and her limitations before she will
adopt a style which will make her ap-
pear ridiculous.
