Workinu In the Sun.

Most of us are such creatures of habit that we are likely, in digging, cultivating, transplanting and thin ming, to begin always at the same end of the garden rows and to work al ways in the same direction, says Coun- try Gentleman. Try varying the meth cd to suit the season and the time of day. If the day is hot and you want to avoid the effect of the sun as much as possible turn your face to it. If the day is cool and the suns warmth adds to your comfort turn your back to it. Tn garden work you are bound to stoop more or less, and with your back to the sun you present the broadest ex- panse of your person to its rays. On the contrary, when you face the sun. 50 stopping the rays strike mostly on your head. which of course should ba protected by an ample hat, with per haps a cabbage leaf in it.

Household linens are of never failing interest. The diagonal and horizontal striped cloths are still much used and are likely to be this summer, but fer tue banquet cloth the plain white dan- Ask, with the double four inch satin borders, is still a fashion leader.
 Initials on the embroidered cloths have become gnaiteA which is to be expected, for In color they would look out of place. Those used on the white cloths are still the four inch letters, which are placed eighteen inches from the center of the cloth. so as to lie between the carver's platter and the edge of the centerpiece.

big Accomplishments.

The greatest thing the Govern
ment has ever done for business
men in the history of the country
was the enactment of the currency
law. 1t was something the Repub-
licans had talked about for twenty
years. but 1t was not until the DEM
ocrats came into power that it went
on the statute books. Now, under
the leadership of Woodrow Wilson,
Congress is taking the final steps in
establishing a rational system of ru-
raj credits. II will do for the farm
ers what the currency law has done
for the business men. Republicans
also talked about rural credits. But
there was no action until the Demo
Gratis took hold.

LESS REVENUE NEEDED
FOR NEXT FISCAL YEAR

Washington, May 20.-Secretary
McAdoo submitted to Chairman
Kitchen, of the House Ways and
Means committee, and Chairman
Simmons, of the Senate Finance
Committee, revised estimates of the
Governments receipts, and eXpendi-
lures for the remainder of the cur
rent fiscal year, and the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1917, tending to
show that much less new revenue
will have to be raised to meet the
bill for preparedness, and other
large contemplated expenditures
than was supposed.
Only about S150,O0O,0O0 addi-
tional revenue will have to be pro-
vided during the coming year. Secre-
tary McAdoo said. This is less by
$75, 100000 than the most conserv-
ative members of Congress calculat-
ed at the outset of the session
would be needed. All additional
revenue will come from taxes on in
comes, inheritances, and munitions,
in accordance with the plan the
President approved last week.
