WHAT TO DO AND HOW
The Spring Search For Wall-Paper-
 Haste Counts More Than Dollars , An Ideal Apartment

'In the spring the young mans fan cy-"
 Oh for mercy sake don't quote any further, says every woman I know, and every man would too, if perchance he read this page, but I just want to say, and I don't want to be sat all over for saying it; that whatever the young mans fancy in the spring hap pens to be, the young married wom- ans spring caprice runs much to wall paper.
 I don't believe any one of our bles- sed forbears could imagine what beau tiful things you can get in the wall paper way for as low as six cents a roll.
 A room can influence a persons mental attitude very strongly. Few women can maintain good cheer in rooms covered with ugly papers. know a very sweet woman whose tenn per and whole view of life was de- pressed by a gloomily furnished house She tried to commit suicide in a room papered in a horrible brown with craWly figures. I always believed the paper had something to do with it. Later she became the most delight ful sunny creature you ever knew in a home where every paper was of a light and cheerful tone.
 If sanitary thoughts are to predOmi- nate, I would suggest paint rather than paper.
 I know the prettiest apartment of four rooms well worth copying. In the bedroom of the head of the family, the wall is painted delicate tan pink There is border of small roses and leaves cut out, which you know is the way all borders are treated nova days, if the motif is floral one.
 Then in the drawing or sitting room, lovely sunset tintS prevail, on wall and ceiling-all painted. There is an ex- quiSite border in conventional paper pattern of green and tan.
 The nursery-not only a joy to its small occupant, but to those who visit it, has a wall painted in cream, with a small boys, girls and dogs in an eIu- sive chase after butterflies.
 And then the kitchen and dining room in one-this is a joy-with it's hlue green walls, and dado of tiling paper. The plate rack with their few but effective bits of blue china, transform this spot from a prosaic cooking shop to the most attractive room in the house.
 The touch of style and art, so much desired, so infrequently acquir- ed, is still within the reach of every tasteful woman. It costs no more money; but it often requires more time and shopping.
 I would be so glad from my own experience to help any of you who want to write me, for I know what can be done with a few dollars, and how they can be made to look like a lot

HOUSEHOLD NOTES

If house plants droop from no ap- parent cause, try giving them good dose of caster oil or sweet oil, and set the pots in pans. of warm water
 Keep a small sprinkling can filled with water in the coal bin. Wet the coal before putting it into the furnace. The dampness will make hotter fire.
 After using a bottle of glue in which the stopper is sticky and hard to remove, rub a fresh cork with a little lard and use this instead of the old one.
 Putting a small amount of ann monia into the water with which you water your ferns will make them grow very rapidly. Use it about once a week.
 One can buy the white embroidered, machine done jabOts and embroider over them in color, saving the time of stamping and padding. The result is extremely effective.

Especial from United Press.)
 New Britain March 2S-If woman entitled to vote on school matters changes her name by marriage what is the duty of the registrars of voters: Must he change her name on the vot. ing list? If so what proofs of mar. ria ge shall he demand?
 These and other questions growing out of marriage in the case of 2 woman voter are puzzling local regis trars, today, who face a heavy female vote in the coming election on schoo matters. There is no state law point ing out the registrars duty. A mar can change his name in this state only by special permission from the state legislature.
