given a guilt, clean sheet, and q pill

the country, did not murmur, and
climbed the pole ladder to spend the
night. never enjoyed a better nights

raised my head and saw two yearling
mule colts feeding at the edge OF the
stack. We exchanged glances for mo-
ment, while the mules ears showed
keen astonishment Suddenly rose to
my feet, and in doing SO the white
sheet chung to my shoulders. where
upon the colts lit out down the lane
as II the Angel Gabriel were de-
scending to take them to celestial pas

that 1t was the first time he had ever
heard of lawyer being mistaken for

THE HOME MAKING SCHEME

There will be many weddings in June. when young couples will begin to build their nests. I am inclined to think they do not do it half as well as the birds Wrens and robins orioles and martins. each know the needs of their particular brood Blu. human beings. thanks to their slavish following of fashion. tuck themselves into odd corners with no thought of the future
 The greatest happiness comes to those who start with an idea of home making. No matter how simple the beginning, they must plan for the days that are to come Each piece of furniture which they buy should be strong and substantial Not for them are the cheap bargains of the installment houses.
 I shall never forget the joy of the bride who ushered me for the first time into her tiny apartment There was bare look about her living room. but there was enthusiasm over her new rug and mahogany table.
 They are both good" she told me. and when we get two easy chairs and a lamp We are going to stop buying for d while. We are choosing things for comfort and use And, no matter how slow We are. we feel that in the end it will pay"
 Not all new home mdKers can as- pire to mahogany But there is much inexpensive furniture that is not taX- dry: much that is attractive and har- mOnious.
 
 living room brown willow with brown leather cushions. One of her we'd ding presents is a copper lamp with topaz glass shade. Her nest will re- fleet her personality. and, as she has made her selections wisely. there will be upon her husband no burden of debt

There are always enough out siders to give her silver. cut glass. pictures and bric- -brac The furni- ture and rugs may not make show display. but the satisfaction she will receive in having them will more than counterbalance her desire to compete with the friends who point with pride to their oversupply of useless trifles
 There is another important thing for young people to consider when they go to housekeeping: they should place limit on expenses. so that each month something shall he saved from the husbands salary.
