Homemade Screen.

useful and ornamental bed or sit ting room screen can be made at home by getting from a builders supply shop four slaters laths: saw each off to the length of fifty y-seven inches. This will leave six short pieces twenty -four inches long.
 Nail the pieces together firmly to form two frames, putting short piece across the centre Of each frame to brace it.
 Select cheap cretonne to harmonize with the color of the room in which you wish to use the screen. Blue and white Is good color combination for bedroom. Get three and one quarter yards, which will cover one side of each frame.
 Lay the frames on the floor and tack the cretonne cn each of them, folding the material over each erd and the sides, taking care to stretch it over the frames tightly and smoothly. This forms the back of the screen. On the front rart put two pieces of stiff card- board eight inches wide and the width of the screen that has previously been covered with dark blue sateen. Tack these firmly to the top of the frame and to the lower edges plait blue and white lowered lawn extending the length of the screen.
 All around the edges. with brass headed taeks, put a binding. of white tape.
 This can be plain or fancy weave: the latter adds to the attractiveness of the screen. Tack the tape on the plain sateen surface so that it forms eighteen small squares.
 Repeat this on both frames and join them at each end with strong brass hinges. With small expense and very little trouble you will have a good looking screen that will answer every purpose designed for such a piece of furniture.

CONGRESSMAN HIGGINs' REcU-
 PERATION.

The friends and supporters of Con- gressman Higgins in the Third con gressionsl district are glad to learn that he is able to sit up and is on the road to speedy recovery.
 ft may be said without danger of contradiction that no representative in congress from this district ever worked more impartially or strennously for he welfare of the people than he. He has never been guilty of negIecting communal interests, corporation or personal claims or national duties His industry and persistence have won many advantages for his district. as well as given him growing strength and prominence in the affairs of con- eress
 Had he known how to spare himself he might have escaped this physical breakdown; and his constituents rec oEnize the merits of his work and sincerely hope that he will soon be himself again.
 He has always served his party well and he has its sympathy and should have it's hearty support.

A TICKET THAT INVITES SUP
 PORT

The republicans of Norwich have placed in the field ticket for town officers which invites the united SUD- port of the party and of all voters who believe that experience and efficiency deserve support.
 Taken from top to bottom the ticket is one which inspires confidence and hope-eyery name upon it represents a citizen who is familiar with public afsfrs and who has a good record.
 Ar. Beckwith is loyal republican and his familiarity with the operation of the sciectmen's office is a guaranty that matters would proceed there un- der him without a jar
 The eapability of Mir. Bushnell for the office is not to be questioned, and his record in every office he has held has been first class.
 There is every reason why the re- publicans should open the campaign with a spirit of enthusiasm and res- olution to win.

Woman in Life and in the Kitchen

to give a formal affair in her honor. invite some of the girls you know for a porch thimble party.
 In extending the invitation ask them to bring their needlework for a chatty afternoon and allow no trace of for mality to enter into the appointments, the introduction or the serving Of the refreshments. Arrange the porch chairs in circle or half circle, pile them with pillows and haze handy all the sewing requisites, such as needles, diff farent sizes of white thread, thimbles and plain embroidery scissors. A guest often neglects to place one or the other of these in her worlkbag and will be grateful for the thoughtfulness of the hostess in supplying them without the trouble of explanation.
 Ask the complimented gtiest to move about among the girls and talk with them all so that congenia1ity may pre- dominate throughout the circle. A graphophone will add merriment to the occasion and keep pleasant chatter going.
 \ Refreshments may be very light. con- sisting of dainty sandwiches, ice cream or ices and cake and fruit punch. Ice cream and cake is quite. enough at one of these drop in parties.
 Later in the afternoon, if your vis- itor sings or plays, ask her to- favor the guests. When she has responded, extend the invitation to any other rlu- sician present, and so have the affair end in round of gayety.

Linen Trunk Sets.

Pretty gifts that ire easily made and are good for porch fancy work are the linen trunk sets. They may be made of any eolored linen-linen in any color which is a. favorite of the per- son for whom the gift is designed. It is usually best to make them of the natural linen and let the satin ribbon binding bring out the color. They are for the bottom and top of each tray. ha bo. and small trays, and include the bag for rubbers, bathing outfit, soiled clothes bag and toilet case.
 They are all bound with satin rib bon and have satin ribbon ties, and ara embroidered to match with the initials either in the center of each piece or at the corner. They are very handy and save taking the usual number of towels Cor the same purpose.
 Many also add the tray sachet pads if a more elaborate gift is desired. The steamer pillows are another fav- orite gift this year and they are coy- cred with brown or yellow denim em- broidered with a large heraldic design in the centers, with the initials at one corner They are cut and shaped to fiji the steamer chairs and have soft ties of the same material.

A GOOD HINT.

In an emergency, where one has to evolve fancy costume with little time and apparently less material, some thing very lovely can be made of seS eral of the beautiful evening scarfs. either the spangled ones or plain ones. Nearly every woman will possess a scarf of one kind or another and these can be borrowed. as no damage need be done to them. Over white dress hang two or more of the silver span gled ones, so that they fall from the shoulders down as far as possible on either side. Then wind others about the hips and around the head, crossing a piece over the forehead and another over the chin and lower part of the face. The eastern effect is graceful and usually very becoming.

NO CHARGES NEEDED.

Democratic leaders have been boa sting says the Hartford Courant, that as soon as this session was over they would get Governor Bald win to turn Highway Commissioner Mac Donald out They have more than intimated that they had made un case and had assurance that the thing would be done. Asked if Mac Donald had not full defence against charges, they declared that this made no difference, as the governor didn't have to make any charges or allow any defense. As the law is drawn, the governor, any governor. not Simeon E. Baldwin at this time but any gov- ernor at any time, can remove the commissioner because he wants to do so. That's reason enough"
 The Courant, after reviewing the senseless and unjust assaults upon the state highway commissioner, says further:
 'On the personal side. it should be remembered that long as Mir. Mac Donald has served there has never been even s serious charge of graft never a particle of proof. The record is beautifully clean. The millions so far spent have been disbursed without a bit of scandal. On the business side it should be noted that a change now would develop endless confusion and the successor, however incompetent would have only to unload on Mac Donald and slide out from under blame. On the political side, if the democrats could get this office into their camp, it might be made a mighty party engine.
 Under all the circumstances, if the senate can, as proposed, provide for a judicial trial before a removal of any commissioner is possible, 1t will be acting for the best interests of the state and the cause of fair play"
 It is certainly due to men of ability and honesty and long and faithful service to have a hearing upon charges made against them; and this provis- ion for an opportunity for defence should certainly be made as q future protection to all men of character and faithful service who may serve the state in such a reSpOngible capacity

o.-Piease explain this Scripture: "eut every one shall die for his own IniquIty; every man that eateth the sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge"
 Answer.-The Prophet is here de- scribing the condition that will prevail. during Messiah's Mediatorial reign Prior thereto conditions have been diff ferent- Adam, the father of the human race, sinned and was sentenced to death, which judgment or sentence of death passed by inheritance upon all men. (Romans V, t2.) FigurativeIy speaking, Adam ate the sour grape and his children's teeth were set on edge. but since Jesus has redeemed the hu- man race from that judgment of death. He will try all mankind for life during His reign (Acts xvii, SD; all who then disobey Him He will destroy (Acts iii, 23: 2 Thessalonians i. 9.

Use of Gold Beads,

Now that the gold bead is again so much in vogue-a few words about this decoration, which is really ornamental when properly worn, would be highly apfopos.
 If you should be the possessor Of some of the old style beads learn from the oracle that only the tiniest are of correct proportions. They must not be much larger than the size of a pin- head. Be it distinctly understood that those that are the size of a marble are taboo.
 They should be in strands-number- ing from four to nine-according to the length of the neck. The 1issone girl with the throat that is swanlike can wear the full number of strands in her string of beads and not appear wanting in the finesse of knowing how to dress
 It is far better taste to wear the beads with high necked collar than with decollete gown; in fact, the dictum is, do not wear them next to the skin, but rather as an ornament on the dress about the neck.
 The gold beads are far more becom- ing to the brunettes of decided color than to the lighter skinned or the blonde. They have also the trait of making the blue or gray eyes to ap- pear cold and s#eely.
 It is also to be noted that if worn Tn the evening they nave d Sofl ol cooling effect on the onlooker. while if indulged in during the day when the glare of the hot sun falls on them they seem to be heat absorbing and warmth diffusing.
 On the background of a dark gown they look inexpressibly beautiful and are decidedly recherche worn with gowns that are trimmed in either black or any of it's companion colors
 In the cleaning of gold heads that have been laid away for some time and which seem to have taken on tar nished appearance, the best forTnula to follow out is, the following: Make a paste of whiting and water to which have been added quantity of bran and a few drops of ammonia Rub the heads with this and with the hands and then rinse off with water that is luke warm. This will make them ap- pear like the beads that are recently bought

Prasent Waist Measure.

According to feminine statistics. the waist measure is more normal at the present day than any time sincs woman began to wear corsets. When one quotes a, waist measure of twenty six or even twenty eight inches the Iissome corsetierre no longer raises her brow in that cultivated sort of covert dismay that she was once prone to assume. and when the general inn provement in health and comfort of the weaker sex is taken into consfdera- : tion it is to be wondered at that the ateliers of the Paris drapers did not sooner come to the conclusion that the women of today do not want thirteen inch Catherine di Medici suicidal waists.
