HERE is no room in the house that we
are more likely 70 accept as being one
II with an invarable treatment than the
bathroom, yet this should not be so. With
the exception Of an unrelenting rule OF dainu
ness. cleanliness and sanitation, the bathroom
can be made as consistently attractive as the
bedroom. and to this end one should con-
slider the details Of equipment as carefully as
in any other part OF the house.
In the construction of the room, needless to
say. the white tiled, marble or glazed compost
ton walls are the most desirable with marble
floor. The tiling need not necessarily extend
belond 4, to 5 feet high, but it is quite the
most practical wall TO Withstand the heat and
moisture OF the bathroom and can be readily
washed and kept clean. A plaster wall scored
of and glazed, when the former thing is
found too expensive, is also practicable for this
use. Above this wanscoting, paper of a glazed
cher ter, simple in design and possibly made
10 resent tiles, can be continued to the
ceiling, but even with the greatest care the
paper will become stained and soon be less

For practical use the pure white TURKISH
towel. with two or three broad stripes at the
ends in color, is desirable, at so cents each.
Towels with merely the broad banded end en-
bossed in color. either in a floral or a fruit
pattern $3.50 dozen), also carry out the dis
tinct note OF color, while those Of this same
pattern. made Of white embossed terry,
trimmed at the ends with scalloped blue-edged
hand made lace, again represent the decorative
rather than the practical bath towel. The white
and pink and the white and blue honcycomb
towels are effective in their solid tones and are
not expensive at 50 cents each, but for ordinary
use the white hemmed and henstitched Turkish
towel (79 cents to 81 each) is the most salts
factory These, of course, can be embroidered
with monogram Cat extra COST, which should
comprise three letters in a circle or diamond.
The same monogram should appear on the
bath mat, although somewhat larger than that
on the towels, namely, about inches in di-
ameter. On the wash cloth, the monogram
should be relatively smaller.
Sets of two bath towels, bath mat Greek

marked with any desired monogram, can be

in green, blue yellow, rose or heliotrope, as

MARTYRDOM FOR MOTHER--MONOT-
ONY FOR CHILD.

The mother who assumes her task in meek
resignation may glory in her martyrdom; but
she is likely TO become dreadfully monotonous
which is not very good for the children.
For we expect the mother TO be more than a
nurse or housekeeper She is to be their COM
panion and constant source Of inspiration.
This she cannot be if she allows herself to be-
come a slave to detail and routine
There is no occupation in which the worker
can retain his freshness and enthusiasm, year
in and year out without taking a vacation
from time TO time. This does not mean mere
ly rest from exhaustion. II means a change
OF scene, change Of associations, refresh
ing and stimulating experience in a new physi-
cal and spiritual environment And as there
is no occupation more exactng than that OF
the mother the need for a real vacation in her
case should be recognized as a matter of
course.
A woman in moderate circumstances-and
her case Is probably not unprecedented that
in her ten years Of married life she had had
but two vacations, and both Of these were
spent in the hospital. She had been away
from home at other times, but then she had

nestle problem is likely to that extent to be
a better mother. Even where a woman is
obliged to do all OF her housework in addition
to caring for her children she is likely TO
neglect them so much that she will come to
them little fresher than she would if she
gave them all of her attention. OF course, for
mothers in this situation there is the danger
that they will be too tired physically to give
up the energy that profitable companionship
with children requires.
The mother who is able to purchase relief
from most of her household cares is often the
one who imposes her continuous presence
upon her young children. With the best of
intentions she thus works an injury upon her
self as well as upon her children. She might

At first thought it does seem so admirable
that a mother. in her conscientious devotion,
should be continuously looking after the de-
tails OF her children's welfare. so that they are

HARMONY IN HANGINGS.

The rug used here should also be washable.
In these there is wide choice OF colors anu
designs, but these, too, are usually OF cotton
and should be woven so that they lie HAT ana
cling to the floor to avoid sliding about Inc
newest rugs OF this type are the solid toned
rugs. resembling Wilton carpet which come
with green. red. rose, blue, lavender and tan
centres. and an inch and half black border
$3.50 to $3.50, according to size), and the Eng
lish cotton chintz design rugs (S3.25 to S|.'o)
which consist Of cream ground with flower
borders broken with black stripes and centre
medallion Of blue, gray or rose, surrounded by
flowers These are charming for the bath that
opens from a chintz hung room and where
black is carried out in the decoration OF the
bathroom accessories. Where solid color is
preferred. the washable reversible cotton rugs
with white striped ends are desirable and
reasonable, at prices ranging from 81 to S5.9o.
Once having decided upon color scheme for
the bathroom, as shown in the curtains and
rugs. then the towels and bath mats must be
made to correspond. In these there are many
70 choose from, and this season appear in
variety Of new patterns The stripe. which is
an ever popular treatment for all fabrics is
seen in the broad delicate pink and white
striped Turkish towel, trimmed with two

each), or without the lace at 90 cents each
These are likewise made in different colors.
Then in the solid color towel, intended rather
for display than for actual use, is seen the pink

sion in search Of new strength and new spirit.
The cooperation of relatives and neiehbors
would seem TO be as welcome and as avail
able when there is a reasonable purpose in
view as when there is grief or dsmay to be
relieved.
CULTIVATION OF OTHER INTERESTS.
In thinking Of the beneficial effects of an
occasional vacation, we must not let ourselves
accept this a. a satisfactory compensation for
years Of monotonous and colorless drudgery.
Tie vacation should not be a substitute for a
life's programme that has in it enough variety
to insure constant freshness and interest, but
it should supplement such programme. The
mother who has some serious occupation in

BE KINDER TO YOURSELF
women Are often Victims of Nervous
ness Because They Don't Know
How to Relax.

One of the important things to know
IN iiie, especially If you are woman,
IS now to let yourself alone, writes
mary Carolyn Davies in the Mothers
magazine. The ability to relax. the
art oil being judiciously lazy. the tact
TO let herself alone has saved many a
woman from nervous breakdown.
we all know the housewife who nags
herself into such state of conscien.
t,ousness that she cannot rest II she
hes down she is continually worrying
hersels with thoughts OF the work that
she is neglecting.
Much Of the blame for this state of
aHalrs lies at the doors of the moth
efs' The mistake is In their training
OF their children, especially their
aaughters. They are taught from ear
nest infancy to be kind to others, to
pear with them. to forgive them. to
help them; but from birth to death no
one ever tells them to be kind. also,
to themselves.
lhe woman who nags herself can
MAKE herself more miserable than any
one else possibly could. She can make

misfortune could possibly make it. II
such women could learn to be kinder
