water or in very cold. Better yet is to take piece of absorbent cotton rounded and made into a little pad to fit the eyes, dip them in ice-water and place them on the lids, changing them as they become hot. After few minutes of such treatment the eyes will feel com forted and relieved to a great degree. This Is especially grateful to the eyes after riding in the wind or after having been subjected to the dust and cinders of railway or the glare of bright re-
 factions on the water when on a boat. Those who have tendency to weak. eyes should daily use an eye-cup, i'll which is placed some water slightly salted, or a boracic acid solution. The. saturated solution diluted one-half is generally the best, and should be made fresh for each eye. The eye should be opened and shut in the solution half a dozen times or more, so that 1t will thoroughly bathe the eyeball as we'll as the lids
 The eyelashes and eyebrows next come up for consider ation. 1 have re- ceived many inquiries ia regard to their care from my correspondents, and 1 ask them 10 look for their answers here The eyeiashes are bound to be scanty and struggling a1ld u:2even If the lids are infa1ned This is the primary cause of most of the poor growth of lashes. Examine the eyelids, and 1T they are red and infaned take the measures to relieve this inflammation. Many times one or two hairs will grow i'll toward the eyeball; these will cause great irr;ta- ton and should be removed by means Of p1ncers. Clip the ends of the lasfes with fine curved scissors.

 "HIS house is covered entirely
 with shingles on the exterior,
 excepting for the small dormer
 window in the roof over the porch. It will be well to have this dor mer entirely of smooth pine The shin gles should be butted at the corners of building, without using corner boards.
 You can imagine the effect if the shingles are stained gray, and the dormer, trimmings and sash are all painted cream white With du1l-red brick chimneys and gray-green curtains at the windows, the appearance will be remarkably pleasing.
 The plan shown in this house is not an unusual one, although 1t nas several points out of the conventional It is really nothing more nor less than a rect angular plan with 3 hall in the center and rooms on both sides, type hat has been handed down from the days of OUT Colonial ancestors and 1as always proven 2 judicious one. The yeranda, however, Is not like the ordinary porch on Colonial house, as 1t IS placed at one side and IS entered only from the living room, through glass doors. This makes of the veranda private outdoor living which may be screened in the summer and glazed in the winter. Of course, one could build steps from the main entrance steps up to the veran- da floor if one desired to do so. By this arrangement, though, the privacy of the porch would be disturbed
 Three cement steps lead to a broad cement terrace at the front entrance
 The entrance Is recessed under little archway. The vestibule IS entered through a glass door with side lights. From the vestibule three steps lead up to the main floor level With the living room opening on one side and the din ing-room on the opposite, very pretty view Is obtained from the hall. It is preferable to case these openings up like ordinary wide doorways, although, if preferred, sliding doors can be inserted. The mantel in the living-room is large and is composed entirely of brick, with the exception of the wood shelf You will note that there is communica- ton from the kitchen to the front door by means of doorway beside the stairs in the hall This is a great improve ment on the many plans which require one to walk through the dining-room to get from the kitchen to the entrance. The rear entrance is down under the main stair-landing and opens on the small rear porch
 The kitchen, serving-room and pantry have been designed to attain the utmost

SEA FOAM CANDY

Put three cupfuls of light-brown sug- ar, cupful of water and a tablespoonful of vinegar into saucepan. Heat grad ually to boiling, stirring only until the sugar is dissolved; then boil without stirring until it forms hard ball when tested in cold water. Remove at once from the fire, and when the syrup stops bubbling pour gradually into the stifly- beaten whites of two eggs, beating con stantly Continue the beating until the mixture will hold its shape, then add a teaspoonful of vanilla and cupful of English walnut, hickory-nut or pecan nut meats cut into pieces. Drop in small rough-shaped piles on paraffin or but tered paper. This dainty sweetmeat is destined to become very popular.
 Turkish Nougat
 One pound almonds, one of seeded rais,ns, half of figs, fourth of candied cherries, fourth of candied pineapple, fourth of hickory nuts, a fourth of English walnuts, two of extra C sugar, half cupful of water and cupful of heavy cream. Blanch the almonds and toast almonds, hickory nuts and walnuts in the oven until delicate brown; cut figs into strips, cherries into halves and pineapple into dice. Dissolve sugar in the water, add cream and boil without stirring, after boiling commences, until a soft bali is formed when tested in cold water. Remove from the fire, let stand until lukewarm, then beat to cream. Melt the cream by standing 1t in boiling water, stirring constantly. When melted, add the fruit and nuts and flavor with vanilla

HOW TO KEEP THE HOME
 CLEAN AFTER IT'S BUILT
Household Hnts-Germcides and Bleaching Agents-Use-
 full Recipes and Gntormation

When ready to bleach mix four ounces of chloride of lime in each gallon of water, stirring with stick. Place the washed fabric in this mixture, stirring 1t about until we'll blesched. Now, lift ing the fabric, rinsing and freeing it fairly well from water, place 1t in solution of four ounces of hypo-sulphite of soda to each gallon of water. The chlorine from the bleaching powder that IS, the portion which still remains in the hbers of the fabric-goes into chemical union with the hypo- sulphite of soda, forming new chemical com pound that is harmless to cloth. Thus the fabric is bleached and the further harmful effect of chlorine stopped After removing the fabric from the hypo-sul- phite of soda put 1t through the usual rinslngs.
 Both the bleaching powder mixture and the hypo sulphite solution must be made freshly for each wash-dav's use This suggestion being followed, there will be no difficulty encountered in thor oughly whitening the wash, or such special pieces as are considered worth the extra effort. The hands should be kept out of the bleaching powder mix ture as much as possible. The hypo- sulphite solution is practically harmless to the hands.
 Sometimes, as a matter of economy, the bleached cloth, when taken out of the bleaching powder mixture, is rinsed, and then the hypo-sulphite solution is spread over it and rubbed in. This method, however, is not as sure of harm less results as is the soaking of the fabric in a vessel containing enough of the hypo-sulphite solution.
 Chloride of lime bleaching is employed only with linen and cottons. Animal fbers, like wool, are yellowed, not bleached, by this process.
 Javelle Water
 Not as good results in bleaching are obtained with javelle water. The com mon method of making this is to boil four pounds of washing soda for ten minutes in gallon of water, then add ing a pound of chloride of lime and straining off the clear liquid when cool. An improved javelle water is made by substituting potassium bicarbonate for the washing soda. In either form of the javelle water the intention is to do away with the rotting effect of the chlorine set free from chloride of lime. The hypo- sulphite solution, however, is the most reliable anti-chlor that is known for household use

CT forget to put near the face, so that the eyes will reflect it, just that shade of coloring which will bring out that of the eyes.
 The whites of the eyes should be of clear blue whiteness, and the blood-ves- sells should not show.

Avoid the strain that comes from wear ing heavily dotted veils, or those with intricate meshes, which try the eyes and destroy their looks more than women realize.

After it has performed its legitimate work of bleaching, chlorine carries its action further, to the destruction of the fabric The industrial bleacher knows this, and he is aware also of the remedy. His method is to dip the cloth in the mixture of water and bleaching powder, stirring the fabric about until bleaching is accomplished, and then, after rinsing the cloth out, to transfer 1t to another bath known as the "anti-chlor," the term meaning, something that destroys the home laundry, the best anti-cllor is the everyday hypo-sulphite of soda of the photographer, which can be had at retail at ten cents a pound.

Bleaching Clothes Laundry Chemicals That Do Not
 Destroy the Garments

T T seems to be common impression
 E. that most chemicals, or at least
 K nearly all effective ones, are acids: -4A It is an even more common belief that acids are ruthlessly used in the laundries that turn out the "whitest" results As matter of fact, the whiten- ing of washed fabrics is accomplished, not by means of acids, but of bleaching agents.
 The most ancient of all bleaching methods lay in spreading the washed clothes over grass, which is done even to-day. The people of olden times did not know aOhy bleaching resulted; the modern housekeeper who has taken a course III so-called domestic science" probably does. In the early morning hours, when the dew is still upon the grass, there is some ozone in the air, more especially near the grass, and ozone, which is a condensed form of the ordinary oxygen of the atmosphere, is a capable bleaching agent. ~ .

The coloring of the eyes, like that of the hair, is made to match the complexion, and fortunately cannot be changed; and everyone should believe the fundamental fact that the color of the eyes which he or she has Is just the right thing However, the effect of the color of the eyes can be greatly enhanced by the color of the dress or accessories worn around the face.

MARCO MILLER, WHO USED
CANDLESTICK AS WEAPON,
IS FOUND GUILTY

Marco Miller, who stabbed Ed
