BORN HOME MAKER
bU|LDSFOR FUTURE
Sees the End Even While She
Works for a Beginning.

To be a dreamer of dreams" is a
very great asset TO the woman making
a home. for much of the real beauty
must lie in the future, the gradual
getting together Of this piece of fur
niture, or that rug, that TO her only
who has infinite faith, and the ability
to see the whole as finished is the
reward great. To the born home
maker even when she plants six inch
high vines at intervals of three feet.
around an exceedingly long porch
she sees only the house entirely COW
cred with these same vines, and in
such abundance that from the Chin
ney tops can be seen the ends blowing
and swaying with every passing
breeze. Nor does she see a few sticks
stuck upright into some Chinese
puzzle designs. which an outsider
might think a child's garden but only
great clumps of shrubs blooming in
rotation and seeming as we'll as beau
tifying the entire place. And so
while with the outer eye sshe tends
her garden and arranges her house
she sees best with her inner one, the
ultimate beauty of the whole. Thus
no time to her Is unbeautiful, or lack
ing in any true essential.
For those who wish to do a house
in yellow, lavender and gray, the sug-
gestions given today seem well adapt
ed TO this combination.
Walls in both living and dining
rooms should be tinted a soft warm
yellow, preferably over rougheped
plaster. In this yellow there must be
no green or brown lights but the yell
low which holds the gray tone. For
both rooms, use an all-over gray rug,
which in its turn must carry the yell
low light. The inner curtains should
be cream colored net, while the out
er ones should be OF soft finished Law
ender silk. The furniture covering
should be OF plain lavender-the win
dow-boXes filled with heliotrope and
ferns.
The front bedroom should be done
as is the living room so the curtain
effect will be the same from the street.
Here the furniture can be one of gray
or white.
The second bed room can be of the
yellow, thus keeping the same tones,
but in these rooms, use both gray wall
paper and rugs.
But your porch will be your joy.
Here you start with the cream wall,
and your furniture should be of the
gray wicker with cushions of lavender
denim. The flower boxes between
each pillar can have heliotrope, ferns
and daisies. the yellow centers of the
latter giving the touch of yellow
wanted. The floor mats should be
gray and the hammock of gray can
vas, but cushions and pillows should
be of lavender denim. If you can af-
ford to screen this piazza, which
would more than repay in comfort the
money invested, it could be used as a
very charming outdoor dining room,
as we'll as sitting room, and the cleo
trio lamps could be of the gray wicker
with wicker shades lined with wellow.
To furnish a porch like this is not
always as eXtrava CANT as it seems, for
it lasts for years. and If desired the
furnishings can be used in the upstairs
bedrooms in winter, when you are
more apt to have guests, and the
pleasure and comfort you derive
from a porch like this is not to be
counted in dollars and cents.

DR.. THOMSON'S
EYE TALKS
An Error.
(TALK NO. 149.)

Almost every day someone says TO
me that if they begin 10 wear glasses
they believe they will always have to.
This seems to be a popular impression
but il is a mistaken one. 1t is true
that most people who begin wearing
glasses usually keep il up but it is not
because they are compelled to. They
needed glasses before they commenced
and they need them still. No person
in the world who does not need glasses
will ever be as comfortable with them
as without Those who do need them
continue 10 wear them because they
are a benefit. They could lay them
of if they chose and the eyes would
be no worse off than when they first
began. Do not be afraid that you
will form a habit which cannot be
broken. If you need glasses you
should wear them at once If not
you should leave them alone. 1 will
be lad to tell you which TO do.

walked from the City Hall to the
Glove building, at Mechanic and
Broad street, owned by the Pro-

The land was assessed at 1886, 500
which was later increased to $552, 300
by the county board, when 1t was
found that the property on the east
side of Broad street was assessed
almost 100 per cent. less than that on
the west side of the same thorough-
