How to Make the Stranger Within
Your Household Comfortable.

The first consideration for a guest is
comfort. She may be delighted with
the vase of flowers that greets her
! from a table, but she will be sure to
! appreciate pretty negligee hanging In
the closet Luggage seldom arrives at
its destination with the traveller, and
negligee to slip into is often a com
fort indeed. Feet are apt to be tired,
and until slippers arrive the feet would
be glad to rest in pair Of simple bed
room slippers. These are really no
trouble ut all TO make. You Just take
a pair of lambs wool soles and strip
Of ribbon long enough to 90 around the
sole and four inches wide. One edge is
sewed to the edge of the sole, and the
other is turned down TO make hem
through which is run a narrow elastic.
This draws the ribbon up, shaping 1t
into a shoe.
Supposing you choose blue ribbon and
work few rosebuds on the toes in
embroidery silk and make a simple XII
mono Of pale blue cotton Grape trim
med with a frlll of white lace and fin
ished with a loose belt Of pink ribbon.
This would be a dainty outfit and cost
but little, -Four yards of Grape at Is
cents a yard, plain or Powered in blue,
with two yards Of lace at 10 cents a
yard and two yards Of ribbon at 1917
cents a yard. will be ample. In fact,
II one looked around for bargains 81
would probably cover the entire cost.
Curtains can be made before they are
needed, and dainty inexpensive mate |
rails can be had In the early spring. |
The printed lawns In the dress goods |
section make the prettiest curtains The
scrim and curtain muslins are not desir-
able. White cotton voile can be used
FOR the sash curtains edged with lace
The colored curtains should be made
with valance, and If made as follows
may be saved: Cut two
engths, each measuring two and one
half yards, and hem one end. Cut
"trip the entire width Of the goods and
welve inches wide. Hem one raw
edge and sew the sewage edges to the
op Of the two curtains coming be-
ween them and making one long
taight edge. Hem this and pass the
cd through, then hang.
The bedspread edged with frill

urtains, and slips for cushions could

are incompetent"
Some measure Of that incompetency
has been referred to hitherto in stories
pointing out specific errors in the tar
if bill due to inexcusabe laundering.
Mistakes in other laws have been dis
cussed in more recent articles. A
brief resume Of these mistakes is Civ.
en- herewith, to be followed later by
instances of other faulty Democratic
legislation.
No. S. The provision enacted by the
Democratic Congress TO build up the
American merchant marine utterly
failed to achieve its purpose, and CON
ferred the proposed benefit instead up
on competing vessels Of other eoun.
tries, giving to foreigners the profits
from high freight rates, according to
the decision of the Court Of Customs
Appeals in the five per cent rebate
case.
No. O. The Democratic Congress
blundered in enacting the law to pro
vide greater safety and comfort at sea
for passengers and seamen by naming |
two conflicting dates for the time it +
should take effect.
No. 10. The war tax law was in
accurately drawn; was not based upon
correct estimates and failed to provide
the money needed; neccssitated expcn-
sive litigation; and the adequate prep
aration for its enforcement was not
made, causing great delay, annoyance
and confusion.
No. II. The executive branch of the
Democratic administration is at war
with the legislative branch, and has
asked the Supreme Court to declare
the law allowing a five per
,ent reduction in the tariff on goods
in American bottoms.
No. IL. The most vital error a leg
slative body can make was incorpor-
tied in the "war tax" law, Congress {
having given two conflicting dates as !
o the time Schedule B should begin to t
perate. /
No. 10. Congress invited litigation s
yer Schedule B of the war tax" law t
y failing to clearly express the mean t
ne Of the provision to tax "cosmet- b
IS" and the matter is now in the [
curtis. v
No. IA. Thousands of dollars col p
,cted from trust companies under the a
war tax" law may have to be refund S
d because Congress failed to make
ear whether or not they are subject

lken to the courts for determination. a.

Police Court Matinee.

Yesterday afternoon the police mat

negro woman named Mary Peppers as
performers. Against each was charge
of being drunk. Wray had deposited
an appearance bond of SO and failed
to appear, forfeiting the bond The
negro woman was ushered into the
presence of Judge Burton. but was so
under the influence of the forbidden
liquid that Judge Burton soon ordered
her returned to the Jail, postponing the
trial till this morning. Her language
was something wonderful and appal-
ing, and proved that the time honored
tradition to the effect that a sailor has
a corner on all cuss words, does not
always hold true. The astounding
part of the performance was how she
could distribute her profanity over so
wide range and yet confine her re-
marks to one language. This morn
ing, being duly sobered, she appeared
and entered plea of guilty, to a
charge of being drunk and disturbing
the peace. She was fined So. you all

Deafness is caused by an infiamed condi-

Deafness is the result. and unless the in
