AS soon as the children are started
off to school again and the household
has settled down to normal conditions
the good housemother turns her
thoughts to her linen closet. This
period comes between preserving time
and planning the winter wardrobe. a
kind of breathing spell of the year.
The long seams necessitated when
sheets are worn thin in the middle call
for no special skill, neither does the
cutting up of tablecloths into smaller
articles of house linen.
In turning the edges of the sheet in
ward let it be done with fiat seam.
Two rows of stitching will be neces-
sary, but the sheet will be much more
comfortable to lie upon. If the middle
is worn quite thin it will be better to
take this part away before hemminS
the sides, making the sheet to fit
smaller bed If there is no use for
smaller sheets the better parts can be
made into under pillowslips to protect
the ticking. 1t is surprising how much
an extra slip tends to keep pillows
clean 1t will be well to furnish these
slips with tapes for tying.
Sheets that are Worn beyond redemp-
ton Will come in for covering furniture
when sweeping, or, if thin and not torn,
should be put away in case of sickness.
Old sheets are Valuable at Such tlnes.
Some women tear them up for cover
ing ironing boards and for dust rags;
but there will be more economy in buy
ing new unbleached muslin for the for
mer and cheesecloth for the latter.
Tablecloths wear down the fold first,
and the usual thing is to cut away
couple of inches from one side of the
cloth. This rather spoils the design,
so novel way of mending is to open
the cloth down the center, cut away
the thin part and insert band of
strong linen lace. This need not cost
more than ~ cents yard. The idea
could be improved upon by placing a
lace dolly IN the center of the table,
cloth and letting bands of lace run
from it in the form of cross. Thus
an old tablecloth could be made into
one for company use and a new, cheap

TRY THIS If HAIR
STARTS FALLING.
Some Good Advice for Those
Threatened With Badness

Al this season of the year many peo-
pie find their hair coming out at an
alarming rate and often fear bald
ness. This may very easily be the
ultimate result If proper scalp treat
ment is not taken at once. All ex-
cessive loss of hair can be almost i'm
nediately stopped by the use twice
daily OF little Partisan Sage which in
vigorates and nourishes the slowly dy-
ing hair roots into renewal of healthy
normal action. New hair quickly grows
on the thin spots, old hair stops fall
ing and the difference is apparent in a
few days by the very look OF the hair
itself taking on new life, luster and
beauty. Partisan Sage can be obtained
from any of O'Donnell's Drug Stores
or any good druggist. 1t lis not ex-

There is no doubt that the dressmak-

material for gowns this season. Every

the hustle effect.
This bow leaves the middle of the

the drapery is punched exactly in the

the waist and from each end of 1t

Vote FOR tom BALLARD.

For Sheriff

To the voters of Garrard County:-
1t is generally known that the late
Curt A. Robinson was elected sheriff
of GGrrard county by one of the largest
majorities ever given any man. and
that George I. Ballard Jr., was his
chief deputy, George T. Ballard Sr.,
his father, being partner with Mr..
Robinson in the emoluments or fees of
the office. If Mr.. Ballard is elected
for the two years, vet remaining of the
term, he is pledged, and Justly so, to
give the widow of Mr.. Rob sn half
the profits or fees of the office, which
as certainly belong TO her as any pro-
perty he left her. The truth is, an Of
flee is most sacred property right, be-
ing bestowed by the people. the high
est authority, and it would be the gros.
sest injustice to deprive the holders of
such property Of their rights. 1t is
not believed that the voters Of Garrard
county will overlook the principles of
justice and equity in this race, If the
office belonged to Robinson and Ballard
before MIR. Robinsons death, the re-
mainder of the term belongs 20 Ballard
and Mr. Robinsons widow.
II the voters will calmly consider
this, as a matter Of right and justice.
they will not recall or revoke what they
have done and Tom Ballard viii be
elected by an overwhelming majority.
