curtains are thin they should be, as a
rule, short, not coming below the sill.
When they do hang to the floor, the pull
back must be low, just above the sill It
self. When short and with full ruffles the
pull should be four or five inches above
the top line Of the bottom sash. The pro-

Don't Look for Thorns

Think Of this IL you are ever tempted
to discourage and sadden others
Don't make the road any harder than 1t
is by pointing out all the thorns that
have lain or may still lie along the way.
Just because you like to find out all the
shadows In the path and walk in them
yourself, don't try and make other people
do the same
Most OF us do far better work, besides
being much happier II we are given a
word of announcement now and again.
And when you come to think of 1t, few
encouraging words cost nothing, and are
just as easy 20 say as the discourage
words that come so readily to our lips.
Make up your mind to look for the
bright side of things always, and you will
be surprised to find what a difference It
will make, not only to yourself, but to
other people.
And anyhow, nobody likes the person
who persists in acting as a wet blanket"
so If you have got into this habit, get
out of 1t as quickly as possible, and start
to cheer and encourage people instead.

Some Famous Children of History

Tad" the little son of Abraham Lin
coin, was named after the martyr prcsi-
dents own father, Thomas Lincoln. The
little pet name by which the boy was
known to those who loved him and by
which he is remembered in history, Is an
abbrevlation for tadpoe and was really a
term of endearment.
How close TO the heart of Abraham Lin
coin was his little son Tad" may be
guessed from one little incident. After the
horrors of Gettysburg, when Lincoln was
harassed by many difficulties, tormented
by doubts and suffering such physical and
mental torture that the strain began to
tell even on his great strength, he wrote
a letter to his wife. who was then away
on a visit with Tad"
Lincoln refers to his boy in this charac-
teristic sentence: Think you had better
put 'Tals' pistol away. l had an ugly
dream about him"
During those troublous days at the White
House in war time Lincoln evidently found
comfort in the affection OF little Tad"
and in his association with him. Often,
equally busy evening, he would escape

Dress for Winter

be worm for nothing woven is so warm as

To prevent taking cold in the throat or
chest when wearing a dress with thin
guimpe, rub the flesh exposed with grain
alcohol. To apply put few drops into
the palm of the hand. and friction the flesh
brislSly and thoroughly The combination
of rubbing, with the spirits, closes the
pores and stimulates circulation.
Another preventive is 70 rinse the throat
with cold water every morning.
Many times cold is caught by discarding
fur from the throat when. in the habit OF
wearing furs. For such an extreme change
the throat cannot endure, and when boa
is given up for a time a. scarf, or other
extra covering, less warm must be put on,
A woman who is in the habit of taking
her tub in the morning instead of at night
will find an alcohol rub afterward may
prevent cold. These spirits should be put
on quickly, to close the pores, which have
been opened by warmth of the tub. She
who is unaccustomed TO wearing a low
neck dress and has occasion to put on
one, should always rub throat, chest and
shoulders with alcohol to avoid cold.

An old theory falling into unpopularity
is that the weight of clothing worn in
winter should not be changed in any way,
lest the wearer takes cold. Newest hygiene
has It that garments should be chosen to
suit shifting thermometer, and that to
continue to wear, on mild day, the same
heavy coat which he needed in very cold
weather, is a mistake.
There is no doubt of the excellence of
tie new theory, If it Is only worked with
intelligence. For instance If the day Is
mild and the month is February, 1t would
be absurd to put on a spring suit, however
sufficient its weight, For the wearer must
bear in mind that changes of temperature
come rapidly, throughout the Atlantic
states, and that sufficiently warm cloth
ing must be worn always, so If there is a
drop of 10 degrees in the mercury the
body would not suffer.

you wish, l am giving you several recipes

forty minutes.
