Two blankets are now added. ~
both are IN one, then the fold should
come at the bottom. Next lay on the
bed spread. This should be longer at
the top than the blankets, the extra
length to be folded under the edges
of the blanket-Th Is to prevent
the woody substance from touching
and perhaps irritating the occupant OF
the bed Lastly the top sheet is turn"
ed over the spread. In the case of q
wooden bedstead all the bed clothing
Is turned in. but when making up
beds on the metal bedsteads the
spread only is allowed to fall over the
sides. In placing the pillows in pos
sition the open ends of the pillow slip
Is placed in the middle of the bed
This prevents any sign of the ticking

In regard to the respective merits
of the different mattresses from d
sanitary viewpoint, the hair mattress
stands first, because ii is elastic and
does not absorb the moisture freely
from the body. Also 1t is easily ster-
ilized. The felt mattresses are healthy
but are not as comfortable or as hy~
gienic as the hair. Cotton filing is
satisfactory as long as 1t is clean when
put IN and not kept in use for toa
long a time
Feather beds are so rare nowadays
that II seems scarcely necessary to
mention them except to say that q
physician prescribes them as making
an excellent poultice, being warms

Vanity Of Women.

An unculitvated mind never realizes
the depths of pettineSs it can descend

appear. says Home Notes.
Vanity, as the average woman un~
derstands the word, means the pleasY
ure she takes In the knowledge OF
her own particular attractions, to-
gether with all the feminine prettiness
adopted to set herself of to the best
advantage. There IS, naturally, in most
women an Unborn love of the heauu~

In regard to the best kind of hair,
that taken from the tail is better

there is preference for white hair,
am told, there is really no difference
whatever between the black and the
white. either in regard to wear and
texture any more than there is be-
tween the fair hair of a blond and
the raven locks of a brunette. And
because people demand white hair
frequently the black Is bleached to
