Window Seat
AS Wood Box
Here is Attractive Sugges-
ton For Those Who Live
in Small Houses.

A commodioUs and inviting window
seat. recently devised for a bow win
dow in a suburban cottage may offer
some helpful ideas to those who live
in apartments or small houses. The
window in this case Is shallow bay,
three feet deep ans eight feet long
a Pinch shelf runs around the three
sides. Just below the windows, the
shelf being Of mahogany while the
sides OF the enclosure are white, TO
match the woodwork of the room. In
winter this shelf is filled with sand
pans containing pots OF flowers, each
van having a layer Of oilcloth beneath
it 10 protect the polished wood. The
shelf forms the top Of a fOot-wide
cupboard extending around the win
dow. the central space being entirely
filed with a broad, deep seat. The
comfortably sloping back of this seat
is made up of two paneled doors which
open upon the cupboard. The doors
hinge at the bottom and the space
within is ideal for holding unbound
magazines.
The cupboards at each side open to-
ward the front, with narrow doors
reaching from shelf to floor. Within
are two shelves for such bulky things
as bill files and letter files.
These, however, are not all the Sc
crets Of this window seat. The fitted
cushion upon it is made in two parts,
and so is the top OF the seat beneath.
These two lids are hinged at the back,
and when the cushions are removed
and the lids lifted, a capacious wood
box is disclosed. The floor of this box
is a trap door leading to the cellar,
from which vantage point the wood
Is supplied.
The decorative effect of the seat is
in
additional seating capacity is most
welcome.
Little Helps.
Mud spots may be readily removed
from dress skirts, trousers, rubber
coats or children's clothing by rub
bing we'll with sliced raw potato. Even
the most careful brushing does not
remove the stains, but the potato never
fails
In taking out the winter clothing il
is an excellent idea TO stretch a strong
line over the bathtub and hang the
wrinkled garments on it after nearly
filling the tub with steaming hot wa
ter. This takes out the creases much
better than pressing and is much less
trouble.
Never wash silk blouses in hot wa
ter, which turns white or delicate
colors yellow. Wash carefully in te-
pid su6s. rinsing thoroughly, then
wiring softly in a towel and iron damp.
One way of restoring a feather
which has lost it's curl Is to sprinkle
it thickly with common salt, then
shake il before a fire until it is dry,
when IL will be as good as new.
In boiling caulifiower use half milk
and half water. This will give it a
finer flavor and keep it white. Cooked
in plain water, it takes on a grayish
color
In washing plain board floors, scrub
with cool, soapy water, using no soda.
Scrub with the grain of the wood, and
not around in circles, as one usually
does TO take of the dirt. Change the
water often, using plenty OF soap, and
YOU will be surprised to see how clean
and white it can be made in this way

Tea Table Talks
May De Witt Talmage.
ARE WE IN TUNE?

If we would stop to consider that
we are in harmony with some people
and absolutely out Of tune with others
it would make life much easier and
pleasanter Tact and adaptability are
great accessories to popularity and
important in many phases OF life.
But why waste unnecessary time with
people who irritate us and make us
unhappy? For steady diet why not
choose people who have the opposite
effect?
Have we not all at times been de-
vitalized by trying to overcome some
antagonistic feeling we have had to-
ward someone? Someone whom we
felt we ought to like, whom we want
ed TO like, ret all the while they irri-
tated us just by their presence. They
need not speak or do anything to us,
but like a cat at the approach of a
dog we bristle when we are with
them. In trying TO ADAPT ourselves to
them we lose so much energy and
vitality
On the other hand there are those
who bring out the best that is in US.
They make US content with the world
and with ourselves. If we were cats
we would purr. We never have time
20 finish half we have to say. But
who has only been with us a short
time before we feel we have not an
other idea in our head.
There is a great deal in the Ital-
ians' view OF life; that we are sim
patica or non-simpatica to others. If
you are non-simpatica waste no time
in trying to make a friend of such a
one. You could never affiliate any
more than oil and water could mix.

MESA
RESOLUTION FAvORs
 ARIZONA STATE FAIR
Commercial Club Endorses Present Ar rangement-Pubicity Committee
 Active

The Mesa Commercial club met in regular session Thursday evening with H D. Evans in the char and proceeded to the passage of a set of resolutions directed to the Arizona legislature wherein it was set forth that the club in representing the sentiment of Mesa and the surrounding community is very much Tn favor of state fair at Phoenix once each year. It was brought to the attention of the club that on account of the somewhat chaotic condition ex- isting in the legislature a measure had been introduced providing for county fairs to take the place of the state fair held at Phoenix each fall. The resolu- tion is against the fair proposition. The publicity committee manifested signs of activity in asking for an ap- propriation sufficient to print several thousand postal cards which will be used in sending out to part of the list of 6O.OO0 names of prospective land purchasers nov in the possession of the club. This list recently compiled rep resents a great deal of work and it is | planned to invite each of the men it represents to visit Mesa.
 Commercial club rooms are being over hauled and by the removal of partitions are being enlarged to accomodate much larger assembly. At the last sev- eral meetings the room has been en- tirely too small and the making of larg- CT quarters was necessary. In addition to the rearrangement of partitions. the interior $ being treated to coat of white paint by MT. Holland. which adds much to the interior appearance of the place.
 ] The club is getting down to business
 in splendid shape and the members are
 very enthusiastic for a most successful year.

 Ray C. Dains opened the debate for the affirmative and stated the question: Resolved, that it would be for the benefit of the human race that nations of the world do away with all that pertains to war, with a view of universal peace He at tached the question from a moral and human standpoint, and endeav = ored to show why the nations should resort to ther means than murderous war to settle disputes. Robert J Pritchard, the Daniel Webster Of the Club, opened for the negative and m a moderately toned. gramnatically eloquent speech told from q biblical and practical standpoint why inc methods of war are still to be prac- ticed Lawrence Austin, rebutirg fer the affirmative, made a convincing llea, in showing how the money now ;,, he, ,,,j naVies. might be profitably expended in educating the young r. ople oi the country and providing for tho;t social pastme of worthy nature Herton Rice closing for the negative scored big with his audience in the straight forward fact for fact debate that was listened to with alternative interest
 The decision of the judes. Mir. G A. Rowe. was in favor of the mega tive.
 Preliminary to the opening of the debate the band gave a short con cert This was the first time arN musical organization in the nature o the band has ever appeared in the normal auditorium, and the way il which the music carried through tho large hall made everyone of tho large audience hope that the banC men may again be called upon t entertain in the auditorium.
