This is the time to be freed OF
heavy chairs. draperies and carpets
which suggest warmth. Choose such
furniture and colorS as will give q
sense of GOODNESS. A color scheme
is a good one.
In point of practicability and artis-
try the world gratefully acknowl-
edges as its ideal the masterpieces
originated by such artists as Broth
crs Adam. Heppelwhite. Chippendale
and Sheraton. The furniture made to-
day in the United States is recognized
as the finest produced in any ag,,
for it combines the faithful reproduce
ton OF the old styles with far bet
tCr construction than was ever dreamt
OF in hE-Eone days.
Lionel Robertson says that in the

4 delightful surprise awaits the
purchaser of porch furnishings. The
porch is as important in its furnish-
ings as any room, and American
manufacturers have taken care OF that
fact. For the porch hand wrought fur
niture made of reeds without glue or
tackled on braids. can be had in al
most any desirable shade. Besides
porch furniture. this made in Cali

Willow is especially adaptable for out

Swinging hammocks, hanging flow
er baskets, comfortable chairs. maya
zine stands. lamps, tea wagons, are all
made in materials designed for ex-
terror use. The space should not be
crowded with too many furnishings
and no article should be considered
whose weight makes il stationary.
Comfort under all circumstances is one
OF the demands of our age. and cane
and woven furniture have proven
themselves most adaptable for porch
use. The very thought that they owe
their origin to the Oriental countries
and tho fact that they could with
stand the climatic conditions there,
are one of the best credentials they
have to offer.

or their hallway as by any other room.
The first impression of the home IS
given by the hall. which welcomes
the coming and speeds the parting
guest" The furniture required for the
hall is very little-a table, a chair and
a place for the guests wraps are the
only essentials. The color of the hall.
If it is dark. should be in buff or
champagne. SO that the room will be
given A brighter aspect.
The living room should be furnished
with an air of informality. comfort
and beauty. 1t should be marked by
what may be termed "livca bleness."
The real tests for the furniture for
the living-room is the fitness for the
purpose for which It is intended and
the amount of satisfaction with which
1t continues to serve. Never before
has there been such a vast array OF
furniture made IN the United States
honest furniture which carries with
it a guarantee for service.
Furniture should be considered in
connection with the construction OF
tho room. Do not mass big pieces of
furniture together. such as large ia
bles and chairs. but place your fur
niture so IL suggests the social idea
There is only one right way to ar
range your furnishings. You may try
time and again different ways, only
to arrive at the conclusion that there
is only one best way. The lighting OF
the room. the sunshine and shadows,
of course must influence the color
scheme. A dark color scheme is diff
cult to illuminate and thus adds to
the cost Of evening lights. Plants add
much to the cheer of the room and
hooks give II a liveable atmosphere.
Open bookshelves. inviting free use
OF the books, give an added charm
to the room.

Planting Potatoes,

A writer in a current periodical
advocates shallow planting of
potatoes to secure early germin-
alton, as they soon sprout under
the influence of the heat of the
early spring days. Later as the
vines develop, the depth OF soil
over them may be increased and
the resulting crop will be better
than under the usul system OF
deep planting. Besides this cul-
tivation is easier, and the weeds
more easily kept down.

Measles Prevalent
In Idaho.
Kills many more than Smallpox
State Board of Health Takes
A Hand in Suppression.
Now Rules Of Quarantine Must
Be Observed Throughout State.

The person who knows, looks
upon measles with fear in his
heart. and well he may.
Persons who don't know, and
their name is legion. go blunder-
ing OH IN their careless, unthink-
ing, indifferent way and daily our
children are paying the price in
precious lives.
To the health officer alive to
the facts and awake to his res.
possibilities there is no thing more
perplexing and little that appears
to be more in need of correction
than the present day almost un
iversal indifference to measles.
AS destroyer of child life mea-
sles holds position very close to
the top of the list. In Idaho IN
1913 upwards of ten times as
many little graves were dug on
account of that terribly dreaded
disease. smallpox, and smallpox
was quite prevalent throughout
the State. too, some SS4 cases be-
ing reported. 1t is very doubtful
whether these reported deaths
represent even small percentage
OF those actually due to measles
as many of these deaths ar. re-
Eputed to be due to pneumonia.
In Idaho at the present time
there are thousands of cases O.
measles and numbers Of death,
are occnrfing.
The widespread prevalence o
the disease is in largest measur.
due to improper handling of tn,
cases. to the looseness of quaran
tine, and is in direct proportion
to the ignorance, careless ness, in.
difference or lawlessness of par.
ents and attendants.
Measlesis wholly unnecessary
disease and no one should have
it. To wilfully expose child to
it is nothing short OF criminal
and to permit child togo about
spreading the Infection among
other children is, indeed, quite as
serious an offense.
The suppression of measles is ii
matter OF strict isolation of the
Infection bearer.
The State Board of Health. be-
lieving that the time has arrived
to clamp down the lid on measles
has recently formulated and pro
mulgated rules of quarantine for
measles which must be observed
throughout the State of Idaho.
The new State rules governing
measles, briefly stated, as follows
/. All cases of measles must be
Immediately reported to the local
health authorities.
2. The front and rear entrances
of the premises must be placard-
ed with a red warning card.
3. The patient must be isolated
for at least IA days after the be.
ginning of the disease, or until all
infectious discharges have ceased.
Visitors are prohibited. Suscep-
tible children of the family must
be confined to the premises, but
may be permitted the freedom of
an enclosed yard in which they
do not come in contact with 9TH
er children.
4. The patient must be excluded
from the schools and places OF
public gathering for at least three
weeks from the onset of the dis.
ease. Susceptible children of the
family must be excluded tor at
least 18 days from date OF last
exposure.
S. The sale OF milk and food
stuffs from infected premises is
prohibited.
