Taxes and Water Rent

MISS MafBery Doom.
How long may a tax bill stay un-
paid before the city can sell the
house? Also, how long may a water
bill be unpaid before they can dis
continue the water? Is there d new
law concerning the water depar.-
ment? By that I mean that II the
water hill is not paid. will they dis
continue the water or will they add
interest to the bill? MRS. L Y.
"a Taxes on property become due
on December 90 of each year. The
city has the power under the law to
sell any property one year after 1t
goes into arrears for taxes. 60 The
city may discontinue the supply Of
water thirty days after a bill becomes
due and is unpaid. (3) Under Chapter
246 OF the laws OF 1912, the city may
discontinue the supply of water and
file the amount owing as a lien
against the property. Just as soon
as a lien is filed the amount begins
to draw interest.

THINGS WORTH KNOWING

The Fruit Closet--At this time of
year one appreciates the convenience
Of carefully marked canned fruit,
jams, jellies and even jugs of grape
juice and cherry juice. This is the
way l mark mine:
Get the little red-edged stickers
with which merchants mark their
goods-the mucilage on them is good
/ get the larger size and cut them
In two lengthwise. This gives a lon
ger space for writing.
Before each batch of canned goods
is put away, paste a label on each
can, giving name Of fruit and date
of year 1t is put up. You will be
glad to use the Oldest first when you
have had some left over, and also to
know just what is inside when the
outsides are so similar.
I find "Blackberries, 1911" and
"Raspberries, 1912,' in my fruit cup
board; also apple Jell, 19i1,'' and
Grab Jell," 1917
Try this. You will never do any
other way.
TO keep curtains straight when
parted. make little white muslin bags
about two by three inches, fill them
with sand and pin on or sew to the
lower inside edge OF curtains. They
will hang perfectly.

A SMART SPRING COAT

The coats of the spring are really
fascinating. They are simple in
general effect. yet they show a great
many little touches that are exceed
ingly smart and even distinctive. This
one includes a back that is cut In
two sections. and these sections are
joined to give the high-waist effect.
In one view there are tab-lilSe ex-
tensions on the side portions. and IN
the other they are left plain, and
either finish is correct The vest
makes an important feature. too. 1t
is found in the handsomest models
of the spring. and it gives Just the
little touch of contrasting material
that is delightful This coat is made
of a suiting with an indefinite stripe,
and the collar is Of satin and the vest
of broadcloth. but a very charming
effect could be obtained by the use of
Bulgarian embroidery or one of the
handsomest brocades for the vest. or
It can be made from one of the
Oriental embroideries that can be
bought by the strip and are always
SO beautiful. For the coat itself. any
seasonabie material is appropriate.
Ratine seems to suggest itself imme-
diately, for il is TO be much worn;
but there are silk suitings without
number. and there is generous oppor-
tunity offered for the exercise of
taste and discretion.
For the medium size the coat will
require yards of material 81, 29l

THE HOUSEWIFE

Homemade Rag Rugs--Save all the
old silk ribbons, pieces OF silk, satin,
velvet and woolen-all colors. Cut in
strips one-half to one inch wide and
two or three inches in length. Now
get your foundation; cut and hem the
size you wish--old ingram carpet or
burlap will do. Proceed to sew strips
on foundation in rows. Stitch on the
machine Sew through center OF
strips. When you get the first row
stitched, turn the edges back out Of
your way and proceed with another
row. Trim uneven edges, leaving a
fluffy surface.

blacks of the early season, III keep
ing with the tailor-made styles, Will
follow the trend to grace in shapes
by assuming a great variety of rich
and mellow colors. Royal, kings and
Copenhagen blues, linen, gold, old
gold, brass, and the new melrose
pink, shade darker than cerise, will
be found. White, as usual. will have
certain popularity during the sum-
mer months.
The exuberance OF color and grace
of shape win be followed in decora-
tions, which viii be markedly in
| formal, in contrast with the severity
of winter styles. Small flowers of
all kinds viii be in good taste. while
ostrich plumes and blrd-of-paradise
feathers will appeal to those who
yearn for ornamentation from the
bird world.
Paris. too, will have its little say
in tendency toward smaller crowns.
The reason for this is not that Paris
decries the present head-fltting and
empowering mode, but that Parish
ennes are wearing less artificial hair
than before and hence require less
capacity in the hat crown. American
women are following the same prac-
tise in keeping with the general trend
toward naturalness and away from a
formal artificiality.
Hats, then. for the coming season
are to be dropping as TO brim, vari-
egated as to hue, natural as to deco
ration, and reasonable as to crown
size. Women is promised an added
attractiveness. Japan, the Balkan al
lies, and Paris are to be thanked.

TO know how 1 can learn where and
when exhibitions of paintings are
held, not those in art galleries or
certain art clubs, but for competition
for prizes. They told me about STATE
fairs. where they hold such exhi-
billions. Ny work Is not yet of such
quality as to compete with the real
artists. Got first prize lasr year ia
a store exhibition, but would like TO
compete with better class OF work.
Can you name certain books on art?

You say that you do not want to
know OF gallery and club exhibits. I
can only advise you to watch the
news and advertising columns of tho
newspapers and magazines for ex-
hibitions in department stores. etc. L

find all sorts of books and magazines
