NEED A LITTLE SPECIAL CARE.
chiidren's Aprons Must Be Looked
After to Insure Proper Appearance.

These should always be slightly
starched, il left quite limp they will
not keep their appearance any time
and will very soon soil. Muslin pima
torres should be put through stifr
starch and must always be starched
wet. Wiring well and roll in q towel
Tor some time before ironing. Those
made Of thicker material may be
slightly dried and then rolled I'D.
When ironing aprons always COM
mence with the embroidery, pulling it
out we'll and ironing very carefully.
The rest OF the apron is, as a rule,
very simple to iron. Always keep the
top OF the apron at your left-hand side
and iron the material single when pos
sible.
II the pinafore is joined up the back,
iron 1t double, first the front and then
the back, or iron IT on the skirtboard.
IL there are tucks along the foot,
stretch them out we'll when ironing to
prevent them dragging. Iron as much
as possible with the thread OF the ma
terial. A small iron must be used for
getting into all gathers. Always finish
OH well round the armholes and iron
out all strings and iron round hens on
the wrong side

Curious Mourning Custom,

A curious mourning custom obtains
among central Australians. who, al.
though representing, perhaps, the low.
est and most degraded type Of human
beings have managed to evolve a most
complex system Of rites and ceremo
MES, which governs almost every &C.
ton OF their lives. When a husband
dies, the widow paints herself all over
with white pigment, and for the space
OF year must not exhibit herself TO a
male member Of the tribe on pain OF
death. For the rest Of her life, unless
she marries again. which is sometimes
allowed, she must not speak, but com.
municate with the other women by
means OF sign language. consisting
OF movements Of the hands and fin.
gers, which has been developed bv
these savages to marvellous extent.
and by which their limited stock OIL
ideas can be fully expressed.

Two Marks of Beauty,

Man" n plain woman is redeemed by
nne eyes, many Il pretty face spoiled
by red-rifnmed, dull. lusterless eyes.
But at tie same time great deal may
be done to make even unpromisina
eyes clear and attractive, to render
eyes which are only passably pretty
really beautiful. ....I..
Attention to the general health will
go far to make the eyes clear and
bright and prevent fatigue. even when
they are, called Upon to do a great
deal Of work.
Have you never noticed the dull
eyes OF a person afflicted with dyspep
sia. the yellow tiRge of overfeedine

ill.ventilated room, who takes no ex.
ercise and spends all her spare time

RETAIN LONGING FOR ROMANCE.

ALL HAIL THE FOOD rAsLErsl
No Dishes, No Kitchen Work, Hence
No Household Drudsery.

How would you like to throw away
all your kitchen utensils and most Of
tho dishes; send your hour. meats,
spices and othor pantry stun to .
charitable association; turn the kitch-
en- into 4 den or sunroom; turn tho
pantry unto . coy corner. and live on
nuts, fruits and fot d In tablet form?
It's long question and 1t isn't abso-
lutely new, but 1t comes In for consid-
Grafton in connection with the recent
discussion of How to Get Rid of
Household Drudgery," says the Kan
sas City Times.
The suggestion was made In good
tatth by woman who believes In the
system. She advocates 1t without re-
gard to the fact that such a plan of
near eating" would rob life Of its
dearest privilege, that of gazing oh
and devouring the luscious roasts and
broils that competent cooks prepare,
to say nothing of potatoes mashed,
hashed or Drowned with butter and
gravy and pumpkin pie.
This Is no jest" the writer of the
essay says. 1T has been my dream
for years. There is only one solution
to the problems of housekeeping, only
one way to escape the ills that come
from unwise eating. Do away with
the kitchen and pantry, live on fresh
fruits, nuts and condensed foods in
tablet form. Have a refrigerator or,
better still, cold storage room where
drinking water may be cooled and the
fruits chilled. An ornamental jar or
cabinet will hold enough tablets to
feed family for week or more.
Think of the time saved that might
be devoted to reading or outdoor exer-
else! And with the money saved we
could buy motor cars or electric car
riages"
Think Of the saving of time and
energy, too! No more luncheons to
put up In newspapers every morning
for the children and father. A tablet
or two in their pockets and possibly a
nut for dessert and away they go to
the Office. Can you see fathers face
when he comes home at night, tired
and cross. the children romping in
from school with cold little noses and
empty stomachs. ready to grow rap
turous over a plump, fat chicken or a
pan OF Irish stew and hot biscuits?
Can you see the faces Of the children
light up with JOY when you point one
finger at the tablet Jar and go on with
your Browning or Emerson? No
dishes to wash. no scraps to throw
away-nothfng to do except read, sing,
play and eat fruits. tablets and nuts

cheerfuIness and MIrth.

Il have always preferred cheerful
ness to mirth. The latter | consider
as an act, the former as a habit of the
mind. Mirth Is short and transient,
cheerfulness fixed and permanent.
Those are often raised into the great
est transports OF mirth who are sub.
ject to the greatest depressions of mel.
ancholy. On the contrary. cheerfulness,
though 1t does not give the mind such
exquisite gladness. prevents US from
falling into any depths OF sorrow.
Mirth Is like q flash OF lightning that
breaks through a gloom of clouds and
glitters for moment; cheerfulness
keeps up a kind OF daylight 4, the
mind and fills 1t with a steady 4 per.
petual serenity."-Joseph Add2o
