Billie Burke Says

with full understanding of the i'm

This sounds like a good deal of
moralizing from Billie Burke. doesn't
it? But it should certainly make any
girl think twice before she says yes
to the momentous question.
have had numerous letters from
men who have been married only a.
few months and who seem to be quite
disillusioned. One man says:
Il thought my wife an angel. but
md she is just an ordinary little
woman
This benighted chap seems to think
he is fitted to live with an angel.
when all he wants is kind of a toy
that he desired more than anything
else since he had his first real BIZ
cycle-a toy that he can wind up for
his own pleasure and can put away
in silence when he doesn't want to
play any more.
Instead he finds himself tied to an
other human being. one having vir-
tues and faults similar to his own.
The bonds are beginning to chafe and
II ne does not proceed to adjust him
self to them the places will become
unbeatable sores.
And he must begin this adjustment
by trying to understand that mar
riage is no miracle by which two
self-centred people can be changed
Immediately into one element of
force and strength. He must expect
no more of his wife than he is Will
ing to do himself.
Another of my men correspond

STENCILED WINDOWS
.PRETTIER THAN CURTAINED

Every house contains some windows
that would be prettier if covered by
an all-over decorative design In the
kitchen, for instance, the lower half
of the window is better protected
from the neighbors' eyes by colored
pattern on glass than by a sash
curtain. A window that gives on a
area-way offers a discouraging out
look; cover it over with a sunshiny
yellow design. The glass panel at
either side of the front door is a fair
field for decoration; and a nursery
window can be made to delight a
childish heart by reproducing the an
imals of the jungle, or the princess
of the fairy-tale, or the children of
any land.
The materials for stenciling are OF
the simplest; water-oolors, a stencil
brush, a stencil-plate.
The water colors may be of two
sorts; the dry cakes of paint that
come in boxes of water-colors. or the
moist variety, put up in tubes, says
the Woman's Home Companion.
In decorating window panes it
would be firing to hold a stencil
against perpendicular window for
as long as might be necessary, SO it
is advisable to attach the stencil to
the glass.
This is done by rubbing one side of
the stencil with ordinary yellow
kitchen soap. A very thin coating of
soap is all that is required for a thin
paper stencil; prepared stencil. as it
is heavier and sitter. will call for a
slightly thicker coating.
Now apply the stencil to the win
dow pane. While operating the brush
you will probably wish to hold some
part of the stencil firmly in place
with your left hand but the applica-
ton of soap prevents slipping. <
Next prepare your color. In stem
Cling such materials as linen or bur-
lap, you deal with an absorbent sur
face, but glass rejects moisture. so
that it is important, and fortunately
easy, to have your color of just the
right consistency. If it runs, it blurs
outlines: if it is not sufficiently moist
it dries so quickly that the color cam
not be smoothly spread.

BURNT WOOD BLOCKS

A clever girl who does burnt wood
makes children's blocks that are
quaint and artistic. Some sets are
alphabetic blocks. The letters are
simple in form. and the burning Is
strengthened with dark brown stain.
other sets are picture blocks; some
of animals, all the familiar house
hold pets and zoo favorites; some of
birds, and others of droll little chill
dren at work and play. The blocks
are easily. procured, or may be sawed
out at home. The cost is very little
The sale OF these blocks to the moth
ers of her ne'ghborhood, and also at
the local Woman's Exchange, has
made this young craft-worker a nice
little sum.-W oman's Home Com-
