MT. CARMEL
y" - RECEPTION.

Those who were unable to at
tend the public reception at Dit.
Carmel Convent on Tuesday aft
ernooD missed a rare treat. 10
those who had not watched the
building of this beautiful piece OF
architecture could scarcely realize
that they stood on the dear old
Mt. Carmel grounds. The grace
full picturesque building with its
spacious galleries on LIST and End
floors supported by ornamental
concrete columns stretches almost
TO the limit of the ground front.
The broad spreading oaks shad-
ing the grassy lawn which slopes
gently TO the quiet waters Of the
historic Teche forms a picture
not easily described by the pen,
it requires color and the skill of
an artist. Within the walls the
charm was even more alluring.
Every one you cared to meet was
there and were so happy about
the whole thing and SO glad to
meet you that your heart felt a
comfortable sense of warmth and
you felt it was indeed good to be
there. The old building once the
home of the Duperiers is kept in
tact a land mark of ante belluM
days. The first floor of the add
ton is taken up with class rooms
and study halls with every posi-
BILE modern convenience. On tn"
second floor are the dormitoIies
daintily fitted with white iron
beds and perfectly ventilated.
At the west end of the 2ud floor
is the Chapel; perfect gem, the
climax Of the building. The
pews are ID heart oak, polished
in natural color aud grain. The
Altar is in dazzling white with
gilt candelabrum, and statues of
rare artistic merit. The Bishops
chair in hand carved oak was the
gift of the Knights of Columbus.
Indeed every thing within the AL
tar rail was an individual gift, as
were the OIL paintings, so restful
and peaceful was this place of
prayer that one could easily ex-
pect great and good results from
the training of the fortunate
young girls who enjoy the privil.
eyes of Mt. Carmel School. Dain.

one of the class rooms by the la.

One beautiful and significant fea
ture of the happy occasion was
that all UNCONVENTIONAL lines were
ignored. All the Christian
I Churches were represented by
priests and members and all seem.
ed to rejoice at the completion of
this comfortable home Of educa-

gram was of unusual merit. The

FOR THE INDOOR GARDEN
The Floral Artist Selects Not Necessarily Abundance
of Plants, but Those Which Harmonic with Zach
Other and with Their Surroundings

leaved plants in close proximity where
the effect Of contrast was not desired,
nor would one place delicately foil
ated plant in a room so stern and for
NAL that the plant might seem like d
stranded exotic. Again, scarlet-fow-
cred plants would hardly be in keep
ing with a room decorated with GRIM
son wall paper or hangings; nor would
it be we'll to place plants, such as the
tuberose or the oleander, whose flowers
are strongly scented, in a very small
room, as their fragrance is oppressive
in the confined atmosphere of a small
space. Musk is so offensive to many
persons that, lovely little plant that it
is, it would be we'll perhaps to omit it
from the indoor garden list. On the
other hand, there are plants whose
flowers, though they exhale a pro-
nounced fragrance, are not objection
able, for, while their perfume IS pene-
trating, it is delicate. In this class OF
house plants may be listed the hya-
cinth, the narcissus, the rose and tn:
lemon verbena.

Plants,
When choosing plants for indoor use
it is we'll to select some that will bloom
continually, so that there will not be

Window Opening Into Kitchen.
The dining room may have q built-in
sideboard or buffet which will be very
scrviceable. Many such Bullets are
built within alcoves or recesses de-
signed by architects for the purpose,
and they frequently include tiny
window or door which opens into the
pantry or the kitchen and which will
be useful to the maid who serves the
table. China closets or cupboards are
particularly beautiful when built into
house, and, as in the library, excellent
use may be made Of the spaces which
in many dining rooms exist at the sides
of a mantel or a chimney piece.
China Cupboards in Recesses.
Low china cupboards may be built
within these rcccsses, with their tops
on 4 level with the shelf Of the mantel.
The glass doors may be either plain
or designed in any simple, beautiful
pattern. Corner cupboards are often
very beautiful as we'll as useful, and if
the woodwork of the dining room is
white and the surroundings of a
Colonial character one might copy the
ancient corner cupboards built within
certain New England houses and adapt
the very simple and graceful designs OF
early American architects.
When one is remodelling a house or
a city apartment the use Of built-in
furniture will often be helpful. Ere
quently there exists an awkward recess
or an alcove space which seems to defy
any snccessfnl ARRANGEMENT, and in

~ AREFUL experiments have
proved that in the average
~ household it is possible to cut
down the gas bill by onc-thiri.
Ore Of the simplest means Of effect
ing this saving is to plan to cook at
the same time a number Of dishes that
require a-long, slow fire, such as baked
beans, brown bread or rice pudding.
There are also on the market sectional
steamers, and if the housewife pos
sesses one of these several things can
be cooked over one burner.
Iron Lid When Ironing.
When ironing over a gas fame it has
been found decidedly economical to use
an iron lid over the gas under the
! irons. When this iron lid is once heat
ed it retains the heat, and the irons
can be kept piping hot with a slow fire.
Another way Of saving gas while
ironing is to cook over the same burner
that heats the irons. When two irons
are kept continuously on the stove a
fat-bottomed kettle can be placed over
them, and even with the interruptions
caused by changing the IRONS the con-
tents can be kept at the boiling point.
This is a very important point when
cooking ham, soup ard other foods
that demand SLOW boiling for many
hours.
Gauge the Point of Maximum Heat.
There are also comparatively few
women who realize how much gas is
wasted when they turn the flow on to
its highest poEt. By experimenting
you can ascertain the point at which
your burners give the maximum
amount of heat, and will find out that
no matter how much more gas is
turned on the fame will remain the
same. By turning on the flow o. gas
carefully until the maximum fame is
reached and then never turning it be-

be saved in the course Of month.
Light the Gas Slowly.
A man who understands the inner
workings of gas meters recently ex-
| planned the most economical way of
lighting a gas burner or jet. He said
that when the gas is turned on very
slowly until the point of lighting is
reached no gas is wasted, but that if
the gas flow is turned or to its maxi
mum point at once it causes the meter
Jump rapidly forward, and as a con-
sequence it will register in the course
OF ! month u good many feet Of gas
that has really been wasted.
While all of the foregoing economies
may sound small, yet when taken to-
gether, at the end of the month they
make a very appreciable difference in
the amount of the gas bill.
