The Porch Rockers.

For the rorch rocker there Is much
that can he done In the line of embroid-
ery. knowing that they have to be saved
from the rayages of dust that seem to
penetrate into the very heart or the
woven mesh Of the split willow.
The antimacassar can be utilized for
this purpose, also making an addition Of
back and seat cloth to protect the part
Of the chair that comes in contact with
our clothes when reposing comfortably
within the expansive arms of this sum-
mer necessity.
One can make these antlmacassars and
chair cloths as simply or as deliberately
as one desires, as 1t opens a field for the
embroidery enthusiasts that can run the
whole gantlet of the fancy as well as
the simpler stitches
If one might choose to emorolder IN
colors 1t is best to choose the soft shades
Of the higher colors so that there Will
be no indication of the degree of warmth
that the full colors are SO apt to impress.
Openwork is less to be desired tlan the
blind embroidery, for should one choose
to decorate these with the openwork there
will be left a loophoe as ii We're, for the
ever present dust to seep through and
thus set at naught the fuil service for
which these Servlceable artnles are &C
tually intended.
AS there is no rougher service to which
an embroidered piece may be put, one
can give way to the vagaries of ones
Imagination TO an unwonted Limitation
by designing or sketching on these cloths
whatever seems to them most weird and
mythical or by copying out of story
books such hobgoblins as strike ones
fancy.
The lighter shades Of lavender and
green are the colors that are most TAX
ing for this kind of work they do not
denote warmth as would the different
shades of red or the other high colors,
such as yellow or brown.

Needs of the College Girl.

The girl who starts to college will need
various belongings besides the clothes or
dinarily supplied. Most schools provide
just the furniture for room and den. The
furbeloWs which give the individual
touch are brought by the occupant
Curtains are one Of the necessities Tn
less the measurements OF the windows
are known it is wiser to postpone max
ing these until after reaching college.
They should reach to the sash and be
washable.
Pretty curtains in net, with tho banded
edge OF satin weave, are attractive; so
are scrim or barred muslin ones with
banding of color. Coarse fish net with
cretonne Powered band are smart If the
banding runs down the fronts and across
the bottom it should be about two inches
vide; If across the bottom only, seven
inches wide.
Where the room is light, then under
curtains of dotted net with finish of mar
row hem and white ball fringe may have
over curtains of Powered cretonne or lin
en- taffeta in plain colors. Make sure of
the color of wall paper before ordering
decorations.
If desk is not provided one is indis-
pensable The new table desks with
raised compartments are light.
If the size of the room permits, a divan
is useful. These are lighter, more easily
handled and cheaper than a box cot, and
clothes may be stored In their depths.
Navajo blankets denim or cotton We
lour make artistic coverings. The ordi-
nary Roman blanket Is a good choice.
One of the latter should be included In
every outfit. as some light cover is al
WAYS needed. A girl should also take her
own eiderdown quilt to college.
When closet room is limited there are
shirt waist boxes, boxes on rollers for
under a bed and layers Of hat boxes on
stands at the shops. A clever workman
can make such boxes at home.
In single room with small seating
space box seat under each window is
ornamental and useful. These can be
made by any carpenter in the school vii
lage There should he hinged lid. up

pad. School books. clothes and shoes can

frame to hold seasoning was q gift that
delighted one girl who goes to college
this fall.
No college equipment is complete with
out a hot water bottle. bath spray, a
medicine chest. containing alcohol, cam
phor, witch hazel. absorbent cotton, mus
tard rolls, listerne and quinine. These
save visits to the infirmary.
a closet rod with combination coat and

THE DAILY CHIT-CHAT.
By Ruth Cameron.

Acts may he forgiven. Not even God can for
give the hanger back
Robert Louis Stevenson.
The most of the world. it seems to me.
can be divided into two classes of peo-
ple-those who think UP obstacles and
those who overcome or overrule them
In almost every family is at least one
constitutional wet blanket. Sometimes
it is a woman; more often, it seems to
me, a man.
No matter what project is suggested
this person always opposes it.
1t is desired that a new flower bed be
made in the garden He is up in arms
The looks of the grounds would be
spoiled. Long argument sometimes over
comes his objections, and in the end no
one takes more pride in the dahlias that
I'LL that new flower bed than he, but, Oh
the energy that had TO be expended be-
fore the obstacles he thought up could
be overcome.
A family outing is contemplated. and
straightway he thinks of dozen OBJ
jections Perhaps the united efforts of
the family overcome his objections Per-
haps the family vitality chances to be
less abundant than usual and the project
10 given up simply for lack of energy to
overcome his obstacles.
Even such a simple thing as the NOV
ing of a piece of furniture from one room
to another is made the occasion for in
Vulnerable objections.
Life with such a person is just one long
obstacle race.
At the start the wife or daughter or
husband. or whatever relative bears the
brunt of the situation. may take the
obstacles calamity, but by and by most
of us who are not gifted with super
human energy begin to slacken.
Some simply give UP the race and
lapse into weary quiescence
A few. IKE the spirited race horse
drop dead in their tracks. The epitaph
for such one should read. She died
OF objections but she died game
The strangest thing about the whole
matter to me is that so few. especially
Of the women. ever seem to think for
moment that this state of affairs is any
thing else but inevitable.
One would expect them to realize how
simple life would be If there We're no one
determined to make it complex and to
protest with vigor, but they seldom do
any such thing.
Personally l am inclined to think il
would be better IL they did realize and
did protest. There might be some of the
objection raisers sufficiently decent to
be reached by plain talk: TO be made
to see how much unhappiness they
caused, how much OF other peoples
energy they wasted.
Surely it would at any rate be an ex-
pertinent worth the trying.

The Ideal Nursery.

The Young mother who wishes to have
an ideal nursery for her children in these
days has only to visit the shops and ex-
ercise her taste in the selection Of quaint
and dainty papers, white enameIed furni-
ture and the oldest Of curtains.
But first she should give due thought
to the situation of the rooms she Is to
use for the nurseries. The day nursery
Should always be on the south side of
the house, where part of the day 1t is
flooded in sunshine. and where the north
winds do not reach 1t. The night nursery
should always be the qufetest room in the
house, and should face north. for babies
should have absolute quiet to sleep in
and plenty Of cold. fresh air.
It is believed by many that oil-painted
walls are the ideal ones for the nursery,
for they can be washed easily and dust
ia not apt to collect and settle upon
Them But the objection is raised by
some that they SAVIOR too much of insti-
tutiOns.
There are always charming papers that
can be selected. These papers should
have q frieze of some quaint and inter-
estina design that will amuse and appeal
to the childish mind The mother who
IL clever with paints and brush could
easily paint an attractive frieze IT
should be about sixteen inches in depth
Boats and birds and blue waters can be
woven into theme of enhancing charm.
or else animals of an odd and freakish
character.
Attractive friezes can be made from the
coiored pictures in magazines. Figures
cut from them and pasted into a process
sion or quaint groups with few lines of
water to give the figures sequence are
most attractive. \. soft tan, like the in
side of an almond shell. is a good color
for nursery walls. With 1t can be used
cream scrim curtains, with quaint figures
stenciled in delft blue or light rose linen
ones.
Every nursery should have an open
crate. protected by a heavy fire screen.
because it Is such an assistance TO good
ventilation, as well as being cheerful.
The mantelpiece should be tiled with
white and delft blue, or else white and
rose.
The furniture should be Of the simplest
design, so that ii can be washed daily.
and the lines low and broad. SO that the
children can Chamber into the chairs cas-
lily and when they fall they will not have
so far to go.
A broad low window seat is a good
idea. for children who play too long on
the floor are apt to get cold. This should
be near windows that are protected with
weoden bars SO there is no possibility Of
falling out. 1t should be less than foot
high and have washable cushions.
