HARMONY IN COLOR.

There .s horror that men have not
yet got onto, and that Is the discord OF
colors. A man will put green and vel
low and crimson and gray and blue to-
gether, In any variety of combination,
and think 1t is all right, but Ii there
are two colors that don't accord to a
woman 1t Is a painful sight, says the
Ohio State Journal. A woman In town
suffered pang when her husbands
stickpin did not tally with his necktie.
But the most emphatic of all events In
this line was that which occurred at
thhe Martha Washington hotel In
New York, when woman had been
assigned to room, but Immediately
repaired to the Office, where she COM
planned that the green foliage In the
wall paper did not match her complex
ion, which was an olive hue. Il

ration that will harmonic with my
skin. and must have 1t right away or
I'll leave" That is woman's hotel,
and she got what she wanted. II
II had been a mans hotel she would
lave been told TO go to Bedlam. Men
IRE not up on harmony; but they
might compromise on a Brindle wall

Wilson's Faith in Publicity.
AT an times and nIaees

AT all times and places, says a
writer in Success Magazine, :"
Woodrow Wilson has counselled
opening our governmental processes
to the light Thus at Minneapolis:
Every community is vaguely a.
ware that the political. machine up
which it looks askance has certain
very definite connections with men
who are engaged in business on a
, large scale, and the suspicion which
attaches to the machine itself has
begunn to attach also TO business
enterprises Just because these con-
INJECTIONS are known to exist, If
these connections were open and
avofed, if everybody knnew just
what they involved and just what
use was being made of the alliance
there would be no difficulty in keep
ing an eye upon affairs and in con-
trolling them by public opinion. But
unfortunately the whole process Of
lawmaking in America is very OBJ
scure one There is no highway of
legislation, but there are many by
ways"
AT another time he paid this hui
morous tribute to publicity:
There Is one very disturbing
quality in man. and / have experience
ed it myself and dare say you
have. When you are long way
from home and see no neighbor from
near your home you give yourself an
extraordinary latitude in your con-
duct but If you were on the desert
of Sahara and met one of your i'm
mediate neighbors coming the other
way on a camel you would behave
yourself until he got out of sight, :

HOW TO PREVENT WASTE.

To keep down expenses, prevent
waste In food and conserve the
| strength OF the housekeeper Is the
great problem OF household economics.
One of the best methods of prevent
| ing waste in food Is to prepare only
as much as will be eaten; this does
not mean being niggardly, but simply
thrifty.
Wilted vegetables may be re-
stored by soaking in cold water sew
eral hours.
When opening can OF tomatoes.
use the thin juice for soups and the
tomatoes for an escalloped dish.
Look over the Ice box before plan
ming a meal; often things most appe-
tizing are forgotten.
Wise planning and careful buying
will aid In reducing expenses, but all
left-overs must be used or the table
expenses will be too high.
Wash peaches before peeling and
the skin may then be used with apples
for Jelly, giving the jelly delicious
peach favor.
A dainty little toasted cracker may
be made from thinly sliced baking
powder biscuit that have been toasted
and buttered. Serve with orange
marmaiade and tea.
To prevent the waste of energy In
the housekeeper. plan to lie down IL
but for Ave minutes, completely relax,
close the eyes and II the feet are tired
and swollen, elevate them and the
blood leaving them relieves the tired
feeling.
A. hot bath and q brisk rub will do
wonders to a tired body.
In the cool of the day get the pastry
| all ready for the water, and set on Ice,
then when the pie is to be made a
few moments will do the work,
Watermelon rind makes delicious
preserves and y cut In small cubes
and preserved with ginger makes a
most appetizing garnish for ice cream.
| Use a carpet sweeper instead of a
broom on the rugs and carpets unless

vacuum cleaner
| Wash window now and then.
Don't try to clean the whole house in
