These Days.

Formerly the decorator or painter
merely had to deal with colors and
paints, and use them to the best ad-
vantage. Nowadays a decorator ia
compelled to have knowledge of the
several branches in rugs, furnishings
and draperies, their adaptation, selec-
ton and utility, and wen the plaster
ing branch Of building construction,
advising for rough or smooth plaster,
relief OF stucco work, carpenter or
cabinet work, says the Real Estate
Magazine. He must make himself
familiar with all these things in or
der to carry out his scheme and pro-
duce the effects which he may desire
to produce in the respective rooms of
the modern house.
The decorating, and, to some ex-
tent, the furnishing, has become al.
most as much a part of his calcula-
ton and work as the mere painting.
He must make his interiors handsome
and inviting. The tenant when nego-
tiating for a first-class house is no
longer content with bare, white walls
and plain floors. The demand in such
cases is for a house that is finished
according to the modern idea. Like
everything else in building construc-
ton, these perplex:ties are turned over
10 the architect to solve, but the mod.
ern metropolitan owner or manager
must take them into his business
along with brick, cement and steel.

Night on Listening Post Is Eerle
Experience.
Small Groups of Men Get as Close to
Enemy's Position and Lie There
All Night Just Listening

London.-An officer back from the
British front describes the listening
post as the most trying experience OF
the war. Every evening little groups
of men steal out between the oppos-
ing trench lines and squat quietly in
a depression all night long, trying to
catch in their straining ears some
inkling of the enemy's d0!ags.
Not until the night has well fallen
do the posts go out.
The object is to get as close to the
enemy's lines as possible without De-
ing defeated; and to be able to re-
main there as long al human beings
can, until the first streaks of dawn
show in the sky.
Once the precise spot is located, the
men who will form that particular
post that night r carefully tutored
in it's position by means Of the invalu-
able p%eriscope. They instruct them
selves in the various obstacles to be
encountered on the way, and commit
to memory every tussock and every
little obstacle that will afford them
cover as they creep out to take up
their places after nightfall. 1t is not
easy work to map out even a hun
bred feet of country through a peri
scope. But since dear life depends or

made, those concerned are not dis.
posed to leave anything. to chance,

INFORMATION THAT HAS TO DO
WITH TWO MATTERS OF
IMPORTANCE.
Sensible Apron Designed to Pro-
tect the Dress Without Con-
veying Sense of Discomfort
Teapot Handle Holder OF
Novel Design - Keeping the
Neck and Shoulders in Proper
Condition.

Every ~housekeeper knows the dis
comfort of an enveloping apron that
has sleeves from the shoulders. When
the absence of cook makes kitchen
work imperative or when there is
busting to be done that the housewife
wants to attend to herself, 1t is a seri-
Gus discomfort on warm days, OF in
the heat of the kitchen. to wear about
the body any more apron than is nee
essary. For this reason the square
neck apron, with its open, wide arm
holes and separate sleeves to the ell
bow, becomes a boon that women
thankfully receive. The dress Is pro-
tected all the way to the hem, in
places exposed to dust and to the
danger of splashing water or sput-
tering grease, but the upper arms and
throat are free.
This is the easiest kind Of long
apron to make, as the square band
around the neck serves as a sort OF
yoke to which the plain apron is gath
cred. The sleeves are caught about
the wrist with a fitted waistband, and
an elastic run through the top of the
sleeve holds it in place on the arm.

FASHION AND THE HOME

of your generation, but that suited the
owner to perfection. There was a
canary bird in a cage and a window
full of growing plants, and a tall bu-
reau with small mirror before which
grandmother had dressed for her own
wedding and there was the spinning
wheel that her grandmother had used
and the rocking chair that three gem
erations had been rocked in and that
grandmother still used, drawn up to
the cheerful CRATE fire. There were
just a few very good steel engravings,
for grandmother had very good taste
and had thrown away all the atroci-
ties, and there were old daguerreo-
types and here and there an interest
ing candlestick or mirror OIL vase that
suggested the days that are gone. And
everything In that room was grand
mothers own, and that's why it vas
worth all the rest of the rooms put to-
gether, because they had been as
sembled by a decorator who was work
ing to please others, not himself.

Room That Has Real Charm.

In a certain louse in town where
almost no expense has been spared in
furniture and decorations the most
delightful room of all and the one
that possesses most of what decora'
tors call atmosphere" is the grand
mothers room, says the Kansas City
Star. For in furnishing this house the
grandmother made the plea for a
room that vas all her own. There
she had just the favorite pieces of
the old-fashioned mahogany, just the
pieces which suited her best. Instead
of the hardwood floor that was origi-
nally in the Dom she had a carpet
that went right up to the mop boards.
She had her Owl little shelves of ia

poetry that would not suit you or any

MAKE BACK YARD ATTRACTIVE
Cost Need Not Be Great If a Little
Care Is Given to Proper
Expenditure.

Why not make the back yard just
as attractive, or even more attrac-
tive, than is the front lawn? 1t can
easily be done and at very small ex-
pense. Instead of piles of rubbish, an
unsightly ash barrel or two, a more
unsightly garbage receiver, ~unsightly
clothes-line poles, ETC., take a little
time and spend a little money and
make the back yard lawn or garden
a place upon which you will like to
pass a portion Of every day.
First, by an underground garbage re-
ceiver, which is sanitary, does not
take up space in the yard, keeps away
rodents, and is a permanent invest
ment. The cover operates by a sim
pie foot trip, a blessing for the wom-
enfolks.
Keep the ash barrels in the cellar
or under the piazza, where they may
be screened from sight.
Then, instead Of the clothesline
poles, bare and dirty, build a pergola
around them and cover it with climb
ing vines which will keep green all
summer; this will cost only a few dol
lars, and will add hundreds Of dol
lars worth to the beauty of the back
yard.
Then, il you have two oil three
shade trees there-and if you have
not, you had better have some trans
planted at once-build around each
one a rustic seat; this you can do
yourself at the expense of only a
pound or two of nails and a few
hours of work cutting the sticks which
you will need from some nearby
