SOME IDEAS
IN MAKING
COSY HOMES
ELEANOR FRANCIS WRITES
ABOUT HOUSE DECORATIONS
AND COLOR SCHEMES, AND or
MAKING THE HOME BEAUTI-
Full.
some Eau Renovations.

The-Fall has come to be the NOV
ing season as well as the time when
most people do any important house
hold renovation and the choosing Of
new wall decorations confronts
great many people. Papers have a
way of looking so very different
when enticingly displayed by the
decoration, and hung on ones own
particular wall, that the results Of
even a very painstaking selection
are often far from satisfactory.
A Few Suggestions.
A few points that everyone has
perhaps heard, and quite forgotten
to use at the critical moment, would
prevent many disappointments if
kept in mind. Don't cut your house
into dabs of color--a blue room, a
green room, a pink room, etc. Cse
tones Of one color, rather soft neu-
trail tones, that don't clash with
ones household belongings, but are
complimentary to them and to your
own personality. Don't choose wall
hangings and carpets that glare at
you when you enter the house.
These should be only backgrounds
to set off the other contents of the
rooms becomingly, including the hui
man contents. Don't have a wall
that makes your complexion appear
washed out and yellow. You are
more important than your mural
decorations every day in the year in
your own home.
Some Trends in Fashion.
There are, of course, fashions in
decoration as in other things, and
just now there is a decided vogue
for stencilling, for hangings and up
holsterings, as we'll as for walls.
This work is, of course, done on
plain backgrounds and materials.
Often the same design is stencilled
on both walls and upholsteries, or
the idea is revised, with excellent
effect; thus a figured wall will have
some of its pattern repeated. in stem
cillings on the plain draperies, or
the figured draperies will furnish a
motive for the stepcilled decoration
Of the walls.

Volcano Z? Emif Lara.

Last sunday alter con 3 mighty
volume Of white smoke raised
hoayenward from Mount siegal,
aud some person shot the news
along that the extinct volcano that
emitted lava ash as late as a
million years ago, has broken forth
afresh with possibilities J frunning
a close race with that i've one al
Mt. Aetna. Fer a while II did
look as though The Almighty had
opened up the damper to the in.
iernal regions and vas letting off
an over supply OF fire, smoke and
birthstone.
1t proved to be a big brush fire
Just over the summit bat a more
amazing spectacle would not have
been witnessed even though a
volcano had been belching from
the summit Of Mount Siegal.

Rattle Snake
Breaks Up
a Party.

Last Sunday Mrs. C. Nielsen
took her 40 children aud went
Tor an outing on the banks OF the
Carson river at a point near the
Rodenbah far1i. At noon ime
lunch was spread on the ground
for three, noi knowing that a vsi-
tor wa lurking near Lunch was
half tiuishad whsn "a qaser noise
preturbed the little party. They
stared al each other lii silence and
waited for second alarm. It

the furtherest Is hard % tell, bul
the children have showered the
credit upon taeic mot er, but
to- they're children, and that's
naturally. The sudden vocal out
burst WAS probably what made the
snake take retreat under the robe
instead Of the lunch as was the
object of his unannounced visit.
With no further questioning the
right OF his seizure of their be-
longings, The Nelsens hurried to
the nearest farm house and got a
man to return with them and take
possession OF the lost fort. This
accomplished, they returned to
Gardnerylle mons the worse off for
their experience but avow never
again.

Lady injured in a
Gasoline Explosion

Mrs. Chas. Bliven had narrow
escape from serious injury few
days ago in gasoline explosion,
and as result her left hand was
badly burned by the flames. Her
chin was somewhat blistered and
her eyebrows and hair was also
singed.
She had been removing a grease
spot from a carpet with gasolene
and having completed the task,
she placed The pan containing the
gasoline on the Kitchen stove, be-
lieying that there was no fire in 1t.
However, the stove was warm en-
ough to bring the temperture of
the gasoline up to the explosive
point. Mrs. Blivea was alone in the
house at the time of the accident
and her first thought was to save
the house flom destruction. She
grabbed the pan containing the
burning oil and carried 1T out of
the house, and in so doing the
plucky lady was painfully burned.
1t requires no little amount of
courage and cool action in a NOM
ent of such intense excitement as
Mrs. Bliven was subjected to, and
that alone saved the house from
being destroyed.
Although Mrs. Bllven's injuries
are quite painful, and necessitating
her hand remain in bandages for
some time, no serious injury will
result.

FIRST OVER
STATE HIGHWAY

C. G. Cello OF Placervillc, arrived
in Gardnerville last Saturday,
havin4 been the first to make The
trip over the summit this year
He was accompanied on the trip
hy Geo. Marquhart, NJ. b. Ryan,
J. Sackett and Frank Adams, who
remained in Lake Valley.
The trip over the second summit
was made very difficult by seven
feet OF soft snow. The only time
OF the day that any headway
could be made was early in the
morning and the snow wouldinot
hold the weigh, OF the horses.
The animals became discouraged
from Laundering around in the
deep snow, aud il was necessary t.
Tighten their LOAD Provisions,
oeacaat-, and other bag gage was
lel. in IRE snow by tire roadside.
Ths party s9as determined not to
turn back, ard when finally the
summit was reached and the down
grade inlo Lake Valley started, the
almost exhausted but faithful
horses and their masters breathed
a sigh Of relief.
DIR. Cello reports that the snow
in Lake Valley almost entirely
gone, and that the meadows are
already in their green robes Of
summer wear. Just as soon as
possible, his dairy herds will be
brought to the summer ranges.
The cid method OF making but

Man
kUenfOr of
DeUtce.

When Babcoek invented the
milk tester he refused to apply for
a patent, claiming that the device
was helpful to the dairy industry,
and that no restrictions would be
made by him. A similar oeourance
although on far different ines, was
brought to our attention this week
in the successful use sof a simple
device thought out by 4. Jensen,
and has to do with cement con-
struclion. A cement contractor,
who has been in the business for
twenty years, declares, that the in
vention will do away with many
kinds Of cement brick construction
The plans Tor the foundation Of
Mr.. Jensen's new home called for
cement bricks. The IDEA did moi
exactly suit, and a ive-foot cement
foundation as left by the rough
boards OF the ordinary mould, was
not 10 keeping with the rest Of the
D lans. 1t was then that the new
idea flashed through the inventive
mind of Mr.. Jensen. He had
made from ordinary gaive aiz ID
sheet iron, a stamp CT mould
to represent the rough face
of a cement brick wall. These
tin sheets were tackled on the in
side OF the boards the MADE up the
outside or face OF the cement forms
and the mixture was shoYeled into
the wall. The osmen. msn did not
take to the idea and others deelar-
ed it would prove a failure. When
the forms were removed from the
irst section 0i the .5at ioanda-
lion a few days ago, exposed as
perfect cement a.oek wall as
could be made, but ~ ia one solid
concrete rock. IN entire building
could thus be Constructed and
while giving an outward appear
anee OF block construction would
he one solid wall that would
stand NATL the end OF lime.
The idea has maay points in its
favor. Cheapuess is the main
factor OF the galvanized mould,
costing but trihe, yet capable OF
being used over and over again.
"The idea is for the free use OF
all who wish it9 deeia Sir. Jen-
sen, and by many who baVe view
ed the result Of It's use, de are that
the invention viii Had q paetiaal
field OF useful operation.
