What Do You See
from Your Windows?

What do you see, busy .housekeeper,
from the windows of your home?
You whose long day is filled with
round of small duties that seem
always to take the best of you, do you
save little thought for the wonder
full world outside?
Our windows frame for us Just
about what we put in them. Though
they overlook only our neighbours
back yard, there is surely bit of
sky and perhaps hilltop beyond.
Do we let our mind dwell on the
stains on our neighbours tablecloths
In the foreground, or do we send them
on over the hill to the busy world be-
yond and try to realize ourselves a
part of 1t all? II we keep ourselves
informed about 1t, we are part Of
It.
And If, lifting our eyes from the
work table, We fill our window with
big visions of humanity sturdily
marching forward to a great destiny,
we are not living a narrow life.-De-
lineator.

A Wall from Daisy
Dear Miss Doom:

Dear MISS Doom:
I am greatly troubled by dandruff
and an itchy scalp. have used the
solution you recommended in your
paper without result. My hair falls
out and am simply at loss what
to do, as ! always had lovely hair.
Please tell me what to use for a
shampoo. / have tried several kinds
lately but most of them made my
hair too fluffy. as my hair is dry
and fluffy.
Would you advise me to use a
hair tonic? Do you think using
different kinds of shampoo or tonic
makes your hair gray? Thanking
you in advance, l am. DAISY.
Dandruff departs slowly, and II
were you I would give the lotion
a fair trial before permitting myself
to become discouraged. If your hair
is dry and fluffy any shampoo would
tend to make 1t more so for day
or two. Perhaps you change too
often. How can you tell if any one
remedy is helping or injuringl your
hair when you are always trying
something new.
Liquid green soap affords salts
factory shampoo to most people. A
good shampoo or tonic will not turn
the hair gray. Rather will it pro-
mote its growth and keep 1t from
turning by nourishing the roots.
There is nothing better for falling
hair than massage. Be sure to get
the treatment from someone who
understands his profession, at least
until you get the proper movements.
The following is said to be an ex-
cellent tonic:
One-half pint clear alcohol, one
half ounce castor oil, one-quarter
ounce carbonate ammonia, one-half
ounce tincture cantharides. Mix
thoroughly and rub into the scalp
az night

Davie Dear climbed up on the
couch in the sewing room, punched
two or three pillows until they were
wadded enough to suit him, then
buried himself in their midst and
said to Dorothy:
Now you may begin, and 1 hope
I'll like it."
Dorothy looked properly indtg-
nant She had promised to tell him
about story she had been reading,
in order to make him forget his dis
content because 1t was raining, and
because il had been warm winter,
and he hadn't had fair chance to
use the sled and ice skates he got
at Christmas time, and because he
couldn't have more fudge when he'd
already had too much-at least that
was what mother Dear said-and
because of all the things that piled
up to make a six-year-old, nearly
seven, boy pucker his face in
frown that wasn't pretty at all, no
matter how you looked at 1t.
I'm doing you a favor to tell you

A Song That Was Requested
and a Way to Wash a
Sweater
Sweater

Dear Miss Doom:
Am enclosing words for I'VE Are
Just Plain Folks" Am quite sure
they are correct, as some years ago
I used them frequently. r.
If Mrs. Karl ]. will wash her
sweater in quite warm suds, to
which a generous amount of borax
has been added. Possibly two tablea,
spoonful to a small tub of water
and dry quickly. it may help her
had the same trouble and my
laundress used the borax and dried
II over the radiator, after she had
drained nearly all of the water out.
It Is perfectly fine now.
or course, the sweater must be
pulled into shape. Hope this Is
clear and that it will help Mrs.
Karl J.
Enjoy your Hearth and Home"
: very much.
MRS. ELENoRE N. B.
WE ARE JUST PLAIN FOLKS.
To a mansion in the city came q
couple old and gray,
To meet their son, who left them
long ago.
He had prospered and grown
wealthy since in youth he ran
away;
And now his life was one of pomp
and show.
But coldly did he greet them, for
rich friends were by his side.
Who had often heard him boast of
home so grand;
And the old man sadly looked at
him, and said with modest
pride
As he gently took him by the hand.
q Chorus.
I'VE are Just plain folks,
Your mother and me,
Just plain folks like our own folk
used to be.
AS our presence seems to grievs
you,
We will go away and leave you.
We are sadly out of place here,
For we are just plain folks.
!" 'Tain't so many years since You
were but a simple country lad,
And did the work that country
boys all do.
In those days you never looked
with shame on mother and old
dad;
In fact my boy, we both were
proud of you.
But something must have changed
you, or your wealth has given
vain pride.
But riches sometimes take swift
wings, they say,
And you'll always find a hearty
welcome at your parents side.
They will greet you in the same
old loving way"
I'm indebted to you, Mrs. Elenore
N B., both for the words of the
song and the directions as to wash
ing the sweater. Mrs. Karl J. will
also be grateful, without a doubt.
Am glad you like the column.

broidering the word Baby may be
embroidered on one section of the
pillow.
One handkerchief should be cut In
two to form the ends OF the pillow
and the remaining handkerchief
should be used for the centre section.
Measure the sides of the handkerchief
in order to find out just how many
yards of lace will be needed. The
edge can be finished with lace edging
and the back may be plain piece of
lawn or muslin.
