Tho Ideal Bedroom.

The bedroom is what its name i'm
plies, place Of repose. and every
thing about It should be conducive to
the one purpose Of obtaining rest
Everything In It should be simple. i'm
maculate. and easily kept SO. The
floors Of such rooms should be COW
cred with mating or should be oiled
and rugs placed beside the bed. The
paper on the walls should be quiet
and subdued. II, to make the win
dows uniform with those in other
rooms in the house. curtains are
necessary, they should be as simple
as possible. Garish furniture, and
articles not absolutely necessary to
the occupant should have no place
there. Above everything the bedroom
should be flooded with sunshine for
at least on hour in the day and an
abundance Of fresh air admitted at all
times.

Cool and Meat.

Not every woman appreciates the
qualities of pure white percale. This
fabric IL much used BY trained nurses,
for lightweight uniforms which may be
laundered to spic and gpanness with
much less labor than linen requires,
Percale Is also cooler than linen and IL
much lighter In weight. For beach
dresses for morning wear It is a spe-
cially satisfactory fabric and may be
trimmed with stitching and buttons In
SMART style. A young woman who al
ways looks az though she had stepped
out Of q Bandbox wears nothing but
white percale frocks in summer time.

The feeling of many men with re-
gard to public Office is much the same
as that which certain distinguished
Trenchman had toward the academy
that group of forty who are called
the immortals." He was asked one
day why he did not propose his can
didacy for the academy.

Is he in it?' and / should much rather

quiet and handsome-an alliance OF
charms much In request.
Other frankly vivid colors borrowed
from flowers and fruit are apple
green and hawthorn rose, and we have
frambolse, a rich red, which Is very
useful side by side with black or bis
cuti, and q particularly lovely azure
called love In mist.
Such colors when softened by the
juxtaposition of. say. biscuit linen.
embroidered in relief with cotton Of
the same shade, or with the ever
useful touch Of black, will make the
summer months radiant indeed.

called sometimes peony and some
times hollyhock. Frocks made all Of
pink mousseline blush wildly, and
would be truly trying possessions for
anyone except the quite youthful
wearer
Every shade OF azalea is greatly
liked. It Is a beautiful color. rich
withal dainty. and a very good choice
for the mother as well as the daugh-
ter. The pale amber tint flushed with
pink is the young wearer's choice, and
the more distinct golden shade Of the
flower that Of the dowager.

There must be hint Of romance In
the new cloaks II they are to be Ia

Spaniard's cloak, the Scotsman's
plaid or the Irish colleen's all-envel-
oping cape, the fashionable models
just suggest them.
It is difficult to produce the COM
p!ete charm Of the folded draperies
unless the aid Of an expert be called
In. Some Of the new models owe
their allurement to a long and Hopping
overcape, which falls upon the Shout

chance weighted by tassel. Others
have the finish Of huge hood, formed
with very little precision. but recog-
nizable as hood Of large dimensions.

Wet mashes are better for fattening
fowls because they are more easily

Strips of cane sown at intervals, near
the COW lot, will come in handy when
pastures fail in early fall.
No land is so rich that Its owner
can afford to waste the manure that
Is made by his farm stock.
The work OF lice Is often mistaken
for disease. When a fowl seems 10
be ailing look for lice first.
When cultivated cowpeas are to be
cut for hay, the ground does not want
to be ridged up very much.
Move the colony houses and brood
GOODS on to fresh ground every day or

Feeding the chicks too much IS
worse than waste, as feed lying about

Chickens at ten weeks old are ready

Unless the little turkeys are allow

II the peas are obstinate about US

give them start up to the brush or

| In order to get the greatest profit
from the pigs on the farm, 1t Ia neces-
aary TO encourage them to consume as
much of the cheap feeds as possible

Don't expect the hired man to

With the exception of the pillow, the
