zone out OF every 10 of you sitting
here will never grow up. You will die
before you attain maturity. This is
borne out by statistics. Two out Of

This seems very wasteful and by these
lectures we hope to prevent some of the
waste"

A Worthy Fad.

If somebody is anxious to invest a
really new fad there is one ready to
hand Let us have cult of taking
your time. To fadists 1t has the OBJ
vious advantage of being wholly strange
and revolutionary. We are all convinced
in these days that the proper thing to
do Is to rush. We are exhorted from a
thousand platforms to act and not to
think about II. to reform everything and
not to be continually debating-as II the

new without having made the smallest

II is a good plan for the housewife to
give the new maid list OF duties she
is to perform. II the maid objects to
their number and character perhaps a
little consultation about them will bring
about an understanding satisfactory to
both.

ever, 1t is always necessary to come to
an understanding about this branch Of
the work II the laundry work is heavy
and a laundress is employed the general
maid is generally required to launder
certain articles such as table linen. dish
towels. and her own clothes.
Aside from these duties the general
housemaid's duties differ. She Is gen.
orally willing to wait on the table, and
some general housemaids take pride in
their ability to do really good waiting.
She is generally asked to make the beds
and keep all the rooms dust free. But
in many cases where only one maid Ia
kept the women Of the family willingly
do the bedroom work and parlor dusting
to relieve the maid.
Heavy rugs or carpets do not need
beating every week, but when they do a
strong man should be hired to take care
Of them. Once in a while, too. II 1t can
be afforded, a man should be hired for
half q day to clean the cellar or attic,
scour outside window slls. give the piaz-
zas an extra scrubbing and do other
things to rest and relieve the maid.

Cleaning Floors.

The woman who does all her own
housework may lessen her burdens
greatly by giving attention to her kitch-
en- floor other than its daily vigorous
securing. For perfect cleanliness il
should be painted, oiled, or covered with
linoleum. but such a floor shows every
bit of dust, and is tiresome to the feet.
Rugs made from two thicknesses OF old
carpet stitched together on the machine
will be heavy enough not to kick about,
and If placed at outer doors prevent
much tracking in OF dust and mud. A
large cushion with a stout brown denim
cover will be found very comforting to
weary feet when there are many dishes
TO wash or big ironings to do.
Once \ week the floor margin should
he cleaned with damp cloth over the
broom, and If soiled spots exist around
the stove they should be cleaned with
small scrubbing brush.

THE TREATMENT OF
DIFFERENT WINDOWS
Choice Of Draperies May Make or
Ruin the Appearance Of a
Whole Room.

Easement windows are best cur
tained with thin white net or muslin
shirred at the top and bottom on small
brass rods SO that the window may b.
opened without having a tapping cur.
tain. Easements made OF loaded pane.
or colored glass do not require thir
curtains. A heavy curtain that may
be drawn across the windows at nigh,
is all that is necessary. according to
the Delineator.
heavy curtain may be such a beau
tiful thing. When you choose the fab
ric, select some stun that is nice in
design and texture, especially at night
for while almost any heavy curtain is
nice enough when pulled to one side in
heavy folds by day, when it is drawn
at night 1t should be more than just
nice-it should be decorative.
Are Not Expensive.
A nice curtain that shimmers at
night-a soft fabric with silk threads,
or one of those lovely Japanese cot
tons that are printed in metals and
dull colors-bronze and silver, orange
and brown. on a tan ground. Such
fabrics cost no more than ordinary
reps and velveteen.
Doubie-hung windows may have half
or full length curtains. of thin white ma
terial. hanging straight and full from
the top Of the window to the sill Ruff
fed curtains. crossed and looped back,
often appeal to us just because Of
their cleanly. fresh appearance, but
plain ones are nicer. Rufiies belong on
wearing apparel, not on housefurnish-
ings.
When side curtains of chintz or such
fabric are used at the double-hung
windows there may be a fitted valance,
nlaifad Ymf1a NJ tho ~ hn
window. This valance should have its
own rod, SO that the chintz curtains
beneath 1t may be drawn together at
night. Many people string the val
ance and side curtains on the same
pole. and while this isn't exactly as 1t
should be. the framing of the gay
chintz Is very nice to look upon.
Pleasant Eject.
When glass doors lead to an outdoor
dining or q little conservatory,
or an inclosed piazza, the effect is very
pleasant indeed, because you can en-
Joy the sunshine and flowers and the
feeling of outdoors, while you toast
your feet by q real fire within. Usually
these glass doors are made French
Of two long narrow sashes,
deep. The best method Of curtaining
the sash is to shir a soft white or
cream stuf-muslin or net-on small
brass rods. the top rod being placed
at the second bar from the top, and
the lower rod being placed at the very
bottom Of the glass panes. This leaves
an open square of four panes at the
top of the sash.
Plan your windows for sunshine and
air. and then refuse to have a wall pa
per or a rug that will not stand the
test of the sunshine. This Is a pretty
good rule for the furnishings Of your
home.

Sure Way to Remove
FreckLeS and Eruptions
From Fashion Record.

Some women have skin of such text

the sudden appearance of freckles,

that kind. In such cases If one will

the wax is washed off next morning,
flaky skin particles come with it. The
entire cuticle is removed in this way in
about week, with all its defects. No
bleach could so completely remove
every freckle or blemish. The new sur
face is smooth, clear, fresh looking. No

TABLE MAY BE MADE INTO

Probably no domestic woman ever

results.

THE OLD IDEAL OF
SIMPLE LIVING
To Live Plainly Means More Time fol
Better Things-When Living
Is Burden.

The old ideal of plain living and high
thinking seems far enough from the
place Of high observance it had in the
early days of New England. Time was
in Boston and Cambridge when to be too
elegant was far worse than to be too
plain, for. it argued undue concern with
merely material things. Modernly il is
being understood everywhere that the
good things which are the plain fruits of
the earth are here for use
The grave question is not now the re-
1ecticn OF these things, but rather their
more equal distribution. Shall one lux
uriate while others are in want? This
is question which for many thoughtful
people is not solved even by the theories
of the charitable associations which for
bid one to pauperize others by giving
money or other practical aid, except
work
There was even more than this in the
old ideal Of plain living. To live simply
means in most cases moro freedom for
better things, like books and music, than
when thought and time are given to elab-
oration of detail in everyday life Where
there is money enough to pay plenty of
work people the home life may be elab-
crate and still let higher things hold the
predominance
when 1t Becomes n Burden.
But where housekeepers have to devote
too much thought to planning and even
working out elaborate domestic arrange
ments, either for every day or for the
entertainment of guests, then the home
making becomes a burden, and the
thoughtful householders may cut of the
material luxuries rather than delights of
a higher order.
Furthermore, one may choose to do
work which is less paid than other sorts,
and thus incidentally choose simple living
rather than a more brilliant style. Ar
lists often do this. Tnen one may choose
In many 4 line OF effort, moreover, to

For very little girls nainsook. fine

A small embroidery hoop and a piece
of cheesecloth make an excellent strainer
