The Cedar Chest.

If you have to live in furnished
room get cedar chest at one of the
big department stores and Danish
your trunk to the cellar. The chest
is pretty to look at, it is useful as a
seat and it preserves furs and wooden
garments from moths. There are
prices and prices, Of course, accord
ing to size and make of the recep-
tacle. but $11 will buy treasure. The
box at this price is long enough for
skirts and high enough for settee.
The top is arranged with two little
end arm pieces which hold cushion
comfortably in place and inside there
is tray for unnumbered odds and
ends. The smell Of cedar on all clo-
thing is delicious. A good chest will
be lifetime possession. never going
out of fashion and always being SER
viceaDle for the beloved things one
cares to keep in a choice receptacle.
The cedar odor is considered rather
smart, too-suggestive Of the aristo-
cratic fragrance Of sandalwood.

RIBBONS MAY Be WASHED
And, as Most Mothers VIII Agree,
There Is Considerable Economy
in the Plan.

When there are several schoolgirl
daughters in the family the expendi-
ture on hair ribbons becomes quite a
considerable item Fastidious moth
ers who declare that ribbons never
look well when washed should try,
the following method:
Make a mixture of three ounces OF
soft soap, three tablespoonful Of
honey. to a teacupful OF gin and wa
ter.
The ribbon is placed on board and
scrubbed with the mixture. 1t is then
rinsed by dipping several times in
clean, cold water, and not squeezed
out, but hung over line to drip,
then put between cloths and ironedsby
drawing the ribbons from under the
iron. This prevents creasing and a
stringy appearance at finish. The iron
should be kept still with pressure up
on it.

when washed If the water is warm in
stead of hot. and the soap used fine

MILLET CROP
Is VALUABLE
It As Good MIR Producing Food
and Yields Well on Good
Land-Moisture Is
Essential.
By WAITER B. LEurzl

The claims of millet as an impor-
tant soiling food rest upon the fact
that it is good milk producing food,
that it yields well on good land. that it
may be grown as catch crop and in
hot weather in some instances after
another crop has been harvested.
It's weak point as a soiling crop is
the short season during which it can
be fed
The great points to be kept in view
IN preparing the land for millet are to
have it finely pulverized and moist and
as clean as possible. The question of
moisture is all important.

be found helpful not only in retain
ing ground moisture short distance
below the surface, but also in accumu-
lating the same even in dry weather.
Usually depositing the seed with
the grain drill is more satisfactory
than sowing broadcast and in some
instances following at once with the
roller will make the difference in a
dry season between success and fail

acre for soiling and of various vari-

If large varieties like the Japanese
kinds are used, they are usually sown

Dresses of blue serge can practical
ly be considered staple merchandise,
as they are usually in good demand
for general wear. says the Drygoods
Economist. This season they will be
especially favored and are being fea-

in Paris, and manufacturers who have
several models showing the white or
blue and white trimmings anticipate
they will take well with the trade,
judging from the orders already
placed.

The reason that men of the Get-Rich-
Quick Wallingford order get by with
their dubious schemes, is their ability to
keep their temper in the face Of great prov
ocation. Most men, when denounced as
thieves and bunco-steerers, get into rage
and are ready to fight, but not SO with the
disciples of the Wallingford school. They
will simply smile and gently assure the
man who is denouncing them that he is
wholly in the wrong and bless me if they
don't usually succeed in making him sorry
he has uttered such injurious language.
