THE USEFUL SAFETY PIN.
Il Can Be Employed In Many Ways
About the Household,

Not even a hairpin is capable of so
many uses outside its legitimate office
as the safety pin. Like the hairpin.
the safety pin may be employed to do
what the needle is supposed always to
do on we'll kept garments-faSten bur
tons and catch ripped facings. As
button fastener on a garment ii has
no rival for thoroughness. though it
might not be we'll to whisper this fact
to the girls who have not made the
discovery for themselves and who are
apt to find sleight of hand methods in
mendlng
But in the closet and wardrobe and
the workbasket the safety pin finds
its greatest usefulness. And right
here why does not some enterpriSing
manufactures bring out safety pins
that are fine enough to run through
small button eyes? For in keeping
buttons of the same kind apart from
the riffraff Of the usual button bag
there is nothing like safety pin
that is when the eyes of the buttons
are not too small to let the pin 20
through IlleHl
Most women have washable waists
and skirts from which the buttons
have to be removed when they are
sent to the laundry. and Il mere safety
pin will keep these together and save
the wild excitement of finding that
last button that is sure to disappear
just at the most exasperating mo-
ment.
Half dozen long. fine safety pins
in the workbasket threaded with but
tons of various kinds. hooks and
eyes and the like will save trips to
the button bag and prevent nervous
search when one is in a hurry. Moth
ing will take the safety pins place in
the small travelling sewing receptacle.
A small pin will take on all the but
tons one can possibly need for an ordi-
nary trip. and another will hold to-
gether the hooks and eyes that may
be required.
For the closet. especially in travel
ing or visiting, few safety pins will
make themselves very useful. If there
are not tapes on skirts-and there
never are these days-a pin catching
both sides of the skirt together at each
side the front and then these pins
caught on two hooks in the closet will
do better service than the usual skirt
hanger.

Getting Tobacco Smoke Out Of the
Draperjes,

Many women who do not in the least
object to the odor of fresh cigar or
even cigarette smoke about the house
find the stale after odor that hangs in
draperies and furnishings intolerable.
The window of room where smokers
sit should always be dropped al inch
or two from the top, for the light
smoke rises and Is sucked out through
this aperture. When the room has
become permeated with the smoke
from several cigars or cigarettes close
it up tightly and place on the floor
large tub of cold water in which float
bits Of straw pulled from a broom.
The straw and water for some reason
absorb all the stale odor. and when the
windows are thrown open next morn
ing the air of the room will be fresh
and pure.

He was the delivery man for the local

with, "Hello. kid; come in!' when I
peeped through the crack in the barn
door at him. And one day he lifted
me up on the high seat Of the deliv-

When he put me down he told me to
hurry home as fast as my fat legs

The prancing Of the horses, the gay

an interim of triumph!

The Proper Sized Broom.

A heavy broom should be chosen for
thorough sweeping in preference to a
light one. for the weight adds to the
process. To test a new broom press
the edge against the floor. If the
straws bristle out and bend the broom
is a poor one and should be rejected.
They should remain in a firm, solid
mass.

Do You Realize What This Bombshell Letter Means?
Very truly yours,

This means an end Of the arbitrary prices on shoes
These arbitrary prices have for years been fixed
on good shoes immovably at $3.50, $780, $3.50,
$500 $3.50 and on; each price always half
dollar jump away from the next
If designer produced new shoe which could
properly be sold at say 81 50, the manufacturer had
either to take something oH Of it to bring the price
to $500 or to add extra and unnecessary expense
merely to shove the price up TO $3.50.
Thus you can see that under the fixed price system
the customer often had to buy and pay for more
than actually necessary. True the difference
was seldom large-2O to 80 cents at most-and true
too, that in Regal Shoes the full moneys worth was
always given. But what the customer wanted was
