How to Make an Attractive and
HeaIthful Lawn.
There is surely nothing more beauti
full than fine green lawn and really
not so difficult Il thing to obtain ii gone
about in the right way. The proper
way to start is after the lawn has been
graded to put in it a top soil of at
least six inches and have Il gradual
sloping grade for drainage, or If the
ground is low and damp it will be best
to lay drainpipes from two or three
feet beneath the surface.
Soil that is rich is very often acid.
which can he corrected by applying
air saked lime in sufficient quantity
to correct the acidity. With sandy soil
the question of fertility is OF prime i'm
portance after the grading. The en-
tire area should be covered with well
rotted manure. Where this is not pos
sble IL chemical fertilizer should be
used After this fertilizer has thor
Oughly mellowed the soil and a smooth
surface has been secured it is then
time to SOW.
A day should be selected when the
wind will not blow the seed. In an or
binary open lawn good mixture is
Pod pratensis mixed with AgnOstis
acamna. For under the trees where it
is difficult to secure any kind Of a lawn
the ground should be covered with
myrtle or hedera ivy. After the seed
has been sown the ground should be
raked and gone over with heavy
roller until perfectly level
When the grass is three to four
inches high it should be cut with
scythe until strong enough to bear the
mower. Should any bare spots appear
these must be made mellow and again
sodded down. The best season for max
ing lawn is Immediately after the
spring rains and before the heat Of the
summer tends to dry out the ground.

POINTS FOR MOTORISTS.
How to Take Proper Care Of Spare
Tubes and Euvelopes

The average mOtorist has learned by
mechanism of his car, but he too often
neglects his tires. Ordinary care ac-
corded spare envelopes and tubes is
good insurance and will save the mo-
forist much trouble and money. A few
suggestions at this time regarding the
reader.
Never carry spare tubes unprotected
IN the tool box. They will inevitably
come in contact with sharp tools and
greasy substances. resulting in their Sc
nous injury. 1t is we'll known fact
that oils and grease are deadly enc
mics of rubber.
Exposure to strong light and varying
degrees Of temperature is also very in
furious to rubber, robbing it Of its
elasticity and making 1t brittle. All Of
these dangers are overcome by the use
Of waterproof cloth bags made espe-
cially for carrying spare inner tubes.
These are supplied by all accessory
dealers.
Motorists sometimes carry spare
tubes in the original cardboard boxes.
The jolting of the car in motion causes
the tubes to chafe against the sides Of
the boxes. eventually weakening or
wearing away the rubber. Unless the
tubes are to be stored in the garage
they should always be taken from the
original boxes and placed in tube bags.

Economy
Hints
A penny saved 10

Benjamin Franklin.

TIME problem Of taking the best
care OF her clothes is one that
constantly cOnfronts the girl
who has q limited wardrobe, a
limited space in which to keep it and
limited spare time. Not only must
garments be kept clean and fresh. but
there is constant mending and repair
ing to be done. and then comes the Of
ten perplexing question as to how the
articles can be stored without being
wrinkled.
The modern fiat or house is seldom
built with ample closet space, and If
girl is compelled to live in one room
there seem to be so many things to be
placed in the closet that it is extreme
ly hard to keep the garments from be-
ing crushed. A pole put in lengthwise
is useful. for on this number Of
hangers may be suspended.
When the wardrobe is all fixed for
use make up your mind that no dress
shall be put away there until it is in
the best of shape. Keep your closet
tidy by keeping your clothes well aired
brushed and pressed.
Put in first such frocks as you may
have for evening use. Press these be-
fore hanging them up; then they will
be ready for wear at any moment. A
word to the girl who has but one room
in boarding house: II you wish to
keep your clothes nice and vet save
money invest in an electric or gas iron
and Il small ironing board. Clothes
cannot be kept neat without pressing.
and the expense Of having ones suit
pressed by tailor every time it gets
wrinkled is too large for the ordinary
business girl.
Now we come to the care of suits.
These should be thoroughly brushed
and any mud or dirt spots removed be-
fore the garment is hung up. Upon
taking the suit off. if possible. put it
outside to air. Then in the morning
give it ten minutes brushoff and put
it away or put it on. as the case may
be. Velvets and heavy broadcloths es-
pecially require heavy brushing, as the
dust becomes grained in the goods If it
be allowed to stand too long. Grease

or benzine before hanging the garment
with other clothes.
Waists can be kept in a number Of
places. If Il shirt waist box is an un-
known quantity and an extra drawer
an unheard Of luxury, waists may be
hung on a hanger just as well. Mend
ing and pressing. if needed. should be
done before putting them away. Shoes
receive so little attention that it Is a
wonder If they are even mentioned in
an article on clothes. So many girls
seem to think that If the upper part Of
their body is properly clothed their feet
will escape observation. This is very
erroneous impression. and the sooner
corrected the better. Shoes should
have trees to keep them In shape.
These should be put in Immediately
upon removing the shoes. A good
brushing ut the same time leaves them
ready for use. A little vaseline rubbed
in while the shoe is still warm will
keep the leather soft and pliable and
will keep patent leather from cracking

How to Wash the Face,

When the water used for the facial
bath is hot enough to sting the skin it
is too hot to be beneficial. 1t is likely
to cause the skin to become ultra SEN
sitive. so that when it is exposed to
the sun or wind it will burn and grow
red. Hot water for bathing the face
should be just hot enough to be used
with perfect comfort.
After playing golf or motoring 1t is
well to use cleansing cream. rubbing
1t we'll into the skin and removing it
after four or five minutes with a piece
Of absorbent cotton. Then dip soft
cloth in warm water and hold it
against the face for minute or two.
Dry the skin gently with towel with
a gentle rotary movement.

How to Make Nail Buffer,

What do you do with the wrists to
your wornout evening gloves? You
must no longer throw them away, for
they make a splendid covering for a
nail buffer. Make a finger shaped roll
about five inches long of flannel or soft
cotton rags. rolled tight until about an
inch in diameter. Sew them at the
edge. then slip over it the wrist of an
old white glove. Fold it over and over
to fit. tying the ends with ribbon or
elastic that is easily removable when a
fresh cover is wanted. This makes a
very pliable nail burnisher that gives
ii wonderful polish and costs absolute
~ nothing.
