was the prevailing color, e%nlivened
with yellow. This girl did most OF the

yeis0w tan, with a picture molding
painted cream color ear the ceiling.
The hoOr was stained a slightly dark

Ions. The girl branded these rugs
from white material she had dyed her
salf no that they would be just the

and buzz. Now for variety and color
nha chose a lowered %cretonne with a
design Of little ye&ow roses With

low rocker, a valance for the top Of
her wimdow with side curtains just to
tho sill, aNcurtain ran on a brass rod
instead Of her cupboard door which
sAe had taken of, and a slip cover for
her lounge. She preferred the slip
covers for her chair and sofa because
they could be sent to the wash occa'
stOnally, so keeping her room fresh
and bright. She framed an oblong mir
n0r In the yellow rose %cretonne, and
painted a bureau, a small kitchen
table, and two kitchen chairs in cream
cOiOred paint. On the table she placed
hGr blctter with its %dull-brown cor

had q room to enjoy.

That Is a fair arrangement. Some Of

common as constipation is many peo-

drowsiness or biliousness, all uncon-

You should have a full and free
movement at least once q day. IL you
pass q day you are constipated, and
the result will be that you will catch
a cold easily Or have a more serious
ailment. To cure the constipation and

To Clean Rubber.

A rubber coat can be nicely cleaned
by the use of automobile soap, a jel'
LyIike substance of dark color, which
can be procured at any automobile
supply store or at a garage.
The soap can be used for other
garments also. as. it does not injure
the finest finished material, but the
effect seems better on rubberized
goods. The first step in cleaning is
to make a strong lather. Clean the
coat thoroughly and then apply the
soap over a small portion OF the gar
ment. Carefully wash of the soap
by sponging with clear water and pro
coed to next space to be cleaned. Dry
out of doors.

START CHICKEN RAISING
ON A SMALL SCALE

Zone Of the best ways for a be-
ginner to begin is by buying a mock

pay 10 to 20 cents each. II he IL stock
Ing his SKIS foot house he had better
buy 80 chicks. A few will die. though
the loss should be small, about one
half will be cockerels and should be
fried early in the fall; while the flock
should thus sift down to a dozen
healthy, .contented pullets. ready to de-
liver the first nome grown Eggs early
in October. To do this, OF course, the
chicks should be Matched some time In
March.
THE very minimum of and on which
to set up in the fascinating sport of
poultry growing is 144 square feet.
This would be occupied by a house SKIS
feet. More and is highly desirable,
though not absolutely necessary.
Back yard poultry culture seems to
originate usually In mercenary motives.
When eggs go above so cents a dozen.
as they do with remarkable frequency,
families of moderate means must cur
tail their use. Immediately II seems as
though hens fed on table scraps could
do the work cheaper and easier at
home, and presently there Is a little
square shed in the back yard, and some
feet of fencing. YET other and pos
sibly liner motives nay be touched by
the poultry ambition. The outdoor life
is worth something. 1t is better TO
be pottering about the chicken coop
than to be sitting in the front room
smoking or In the parlor playing
bridge. Live animals are pets and per-
sonal friends to those who nurse them
and they draw out many amiable hu-
man qualities. "
For the education of children moth
ing can be better than such a gentle,
trough exacting, occupation as feeding
the hens and looking after the chicks.
Children, Of course. ought to be brought
up in the country, on farms II pos
sible. but where these very desirable
conditions fail, back lot poultry cul-
ture offers q fairish substitute"
