see by Figs. 8 and 4 that uprights A
and B are notched to receive the hori-
zontal pieces G and D. Make pieces
A, B and C of ~2-by-4-inch material, and
D of a 1-by-4-inch board. The notches
in upright B can be cut square across
the piece, but those in A must be cut
obliquely to allow for the slant of the
seat back Zig. ~.
Fig. 8 shows the necessary measure
ments for cutting and assembling the
parts. First lay uprights A and B
upon the floor with their ends at the
distances apart specified on the dia-
gram. Then place c and D across
them, and mark the positions for the
notches. Cut the end notches in A
and B with a saw, and the center
notch in A with a saw and chisel.
Be careful to make the notches no
wider or deeper than necessary, so
the joints will be snug and flush. Be-
fore mailing the c~rosspieces in place,
cut one end of each to fit the slant OF
upright A; also mark and cut off the

A Gift Suggestion

A petticoat ruffle makes a pretty and
unusual gift for the birthday of a
friend. Now that skirts are so vol
luminous most girls are reveling in fluff
fly rufles to their hearts content. If
you do not care to embroider the
s%calloping, which is really the tedious
part of embroidering a petticoat, have
rather large shallow scallops piqueted
on batiste, nainsook or handkerchief
linen.
You a then put a trifie more time
on embroidering with a skeleton stitch.
cry a pretty design that will fit partly
into the scallops. The ruffle is then
mounted on a beading of val lace or
fine embroidery and ribbon is run
through and tied in a bow at the front
side.
The f1ounce should be made quite
wide, at least two yards and a half
so that when 1t is to be attached tt
the old petticoat or a new one it will
be wide enough to compare favorably
with the full skirts now in vogue.

The positions for these notches must

Dry Dyeing.

For laces put a tube of paint into
gasoline and stir until dissolved, then
test the shade by dipping in a sam
pie. If too dark. add more gasoline,
but If the shade is too light, put in
more paint. Dip the lace up and down
until the tint Is obtained, then shake
the lace out and let it dry. Press on
the wrong side with a warm latiron.
Pull gently, but do not wash first os-
trich feathers, quilts, wings and faded
artificial flowers respond to the same
treatment. Goods not touching water
are almost like new again. Ceylon tea
will give lace a pretty cream tint.

THE TRUDGE-AWAY LAD
BY JAY 3. lDEN.

So DedrH so weary of running,
So Weary of romping and play,
The Trudge-Away Lad to his mother
Comes home through the brink of'the day;
The Trudge-Away Lad from his roaming
Through Trudge-Away meadows alarms,
By portals of loUe to discover
A haven in mothers dear arms.
And wonderf'ly sweet is his story
of TrUdge-Awdy meadows SO grand,
Where tower the castles of Fancy,
And wonderful 6attements stand.
And patient the mother tUho listens
While little boy Trudge-AWay tells
Of perilous dangers attending
The Voyager through Tradge-Awdy deHs.
Then lulldbies sound in the evening,
Forgotten are perils l know,
And launched are the Sunderland UeSsels
That glide Where the dream ~rs7qOw;
Where islands are fruited NTH kisses,
And blossom the lilies of joy
Oh, wonderful heart of a mother,
Oh, wonderful Trudge-AWay Boy!

BAD ROADS CAUSE BIG LOSS
Dairy and Food Commissioner Weigle
Estimates Badger Farmers Lost
$4,000 in May and June.

Madison Bad roads cost almost
100000 to the dairy farmers of Wis

This does not refer to all the loss
caused by bad roads, but merely to
that one feature of loss, the delay In
delivery to the creamerles.
Such Is the statement issued by the
Good Roads association of Wisconsin
in its campaign for better and more
continuous highways 1t is issued on
the authority of State Dairy and Food
Commissioner George Weigle, based
on the prices and information re-
CeiVed from throughout the state dur
ing these two months.
May and June were exceedingly
rainy months, This resulted in slow
and infrequent deliveries of cream -
weekly or twice weekly instead of oft
ener II Is Conseryatiyely figured that
because Of delay in delivery there was
loss OF one-half cent per pound in
the price Of butter. The approximate
Of the output last year was 10000 900
pounds Onequarter of the output Is
in the months Of May and June. which
would mean approximately 3i.000,OO0
pounds One.hali cent a pound means

opinion that it is the best camp ground
