YOUR new FALL
FURNISHINGS
Expert Notes About How to
Choose and Buy the Pieces You
Need to Freshen Up Your Home
For Winter = Durability and
Beauty Are Essentials.
furnishing of a room re-
'quires the same kind of dis

furnishing of a room re-
'Quires the same kind of dis
elimination as the costuming
of a person. The stout woman
who has good taste does not array her
self in checks and plaids. She uses the
principle of contrast, and by selecting
materials with stripes or styles of
plain severity she neutralizes her large
proportions and appears pleasantly
well dressed. Similarly, in a small.
boxlike. square room it Is folly to in
troduce massive, heavy pieces, even If
the pieces in themselves are beautiful
to look at and a splendid bargain.
The first consideration Is not price,
but the conditions of the room In
which the furniture is to be placed.
The second consideration is that the
furniture be comfortable and adapted
to re needs of the family.
The third is that it be beautiful and
of good, durable quality.
One of the most common errors in
buying occurs in the purchase of chairs.
How often chairs are bought on looks
without the purchaser ever once sitting
In them to make SUR that they are
comfortable! In buying a comfortable
chair make sure that it possesses the
following essentials: The seat should
slope slightly downward toward the
back, and the back of the chairs should
nclin backward or curve outward
from the seat of the chair so that 1t
touches the back at all points.
For the dining room the chair may
be a little more formal, but there is no
reason why it should be uncomfortable
The arms of a chair should not be
more than ten inches from the scat,
and the seat should be high enough so
that ones feet just touch the ground
when seated.
Another point: If you can have your
choice of woods bear in mind the diff
ferences in wearing power and do not
be governed by present appearances
alone. There is nothing more beauti-
full than mahogany, but it should not
be the polished mahogany, because the
high polish Oh new furniture usually
wears off quickly and likely as not dis.

little scratch and finger mark. Oak

This simple idea is a great help with
summer dresses and especially with
the children's dresses. Before you hem
the bottom of a skirt that is likely to
shrink run a tuck in the hem on the
wrong side, with a long stitch nearly
at the top of the hem, then run hem
in usual way. Be SUR not to take
stitches of tuck with the hemming. If
it shrinks one can easily rip the long
stitches and let down without undoing
the hem.

u. S. WEAK IN SAVINGS
ALL NATIONS OF EUROPE LEAD
THIS COUNTRY.
Deposits OF Eastern States Greater
Than Those of All Other
Sections Combined.

The first savings bank In the United
States was established In Philadel-
phia In 1916. 1t was patterned after
an institution in Scotland. and 1t was
the forebear Of the 2,159 savings
banks that now dot the country. OF
these 2.159 savings banks $50 are mu-
tual institutions and 1929 have a cap
ital stock. In the New England and
the eastern states of New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and
Maryland the mutual savings bank
which has no capital stock is the
popular form of institution. Outside
of the states mentioned there are only
tw~enty-three mutual savings banks.
These $50 mutual savings banks
have $685. $50 depositors and approx
mately $4,000, 000, 900 on depos-
1t. The 1929 stock savings banks
have 1885, 96 depositors and approx
mately $500, 100000 of savings depos-
its. It will be seen from this state
ment that the six New England states
and the five eastern states mentioned
form the section In which thrift has
been carried to a higher degree than
In any other part of the country.
The total amount of all the savings
deposits in banks of the United States
Is a tri1e more than eight and a half
billion dollars. This, of course, is an
enormous sum-, but when It Is reduced
to a per capita basis 1t does not indi-
cate the possession Of large resources
by the individual units of the popula-
ton Only 10 40 per cent of the
population of the United States are
savers. The average percentage Of
savings to population of the ten lead
ing European nations is thirty-seven.
The records show that In Switzerland
So per cen of the people have saw
ings accounts, In Denmark "A per
cent, In Norway Al. in Sweden 40, in
Belgium 80. In France "a, In the Meth
erlands 80, In Germany 81 and in
England 80. A curious contrast is
presented by the statistics from Japan
where there are 8,1S9, 900 savings
bank depositors, but the per capita
amount Of savings is $3.46, while in
Belgium there are only 100000 de-
positors, but the per capita of savings
is $28.50.
The United States, with the highest
scale of wages, has the lowest per-
centage Of savings, while the coun-
tries with the larger proportion Of
savers all have the lower scales of
wages. The comparisons shown by
the figures indicate clearly that the
people of the United States have a
great duty to perform If they are go
ing to win the goal of commercial pre-
Witch their wealth entt

Told in other terms, the per capita
savings deposits In the United States
is 1884. In Norway. Is $62.42, In
Germany $67.73, IN Denmark $57.86
and in Switzerland $86.47.

VILLA AIDED BY WILSON'S
FAVOR AND BACKING.

In March last, Villa made a
raid into American territory. He
was a bandit leader whose
career of successful infamy had
been greatly aided by MIR. Will
sons favor and backing. He
was at the head of Mexican sol
diers, whose arms and munitions
had been. supplied to them in
consequence of Mr.. Wilson's re-
versing Mr.. Taft's policy and
lifting the embargo against arms
and munitions into Mexico. They
attacked Columbus, New Mexico,
and killed a number of civilians
and a number of United States
troops. On the next day the
president issued an announce
ment that adequate forces would
be sent In pursuit of Villa with
the single object of capturing
him." On April 8th, the an
nouncement was made from the
White House that the troops
would remain in Mexico until
Villa was captured. 1t was
furthermore announced In the
press dispatches from Washing
ton that he was to be taken
dead or alive" Fine words
Only-they meant nothing. He
Is not dead. He has not been
taken alive.-From speech of

cred at Lewiston, Maine, in be-

Useful Products From Pine Needles.

Pine needle oil. a volatile. color less liquid distilled from fresh nee- dles, cones and young twigs of pine trees in th.s country, is widely known and esteemed as a remedy for rheumatism and similar dis eases. Fresh green needles and young shoots are picked from the trees to produce oil of the best quality. Needles from old trees are lees desirable; the oil obtained from them $ smaller in quantity and inferior in quality.
 As the oil is in considerable de- mand large distilling plants, with improved. secret appliances, have been established. These now pro- duce enough to supply domestic needs and provide considerable quantity for export. The purified  oif ranges in price from $20 to $50 per gallon. Turpentine oil is fre- quentIy used as an adalterant to produce a cheaper oil but oils SO adulterated are inferior.
 In distilIing pine needle oil, the raw material is placed in a closed kettle into which live steam under pressure is conducted in such a manner that it passes up through the contents from the bottom. The steam vaporizes the volatile oil and carries it off through a eoiled condensing tube. After the steam with it's content of oil has been condensed the latter collects on the top of the water from which 1t is readily separated.
 After the oil has all been driven off from the needles they are boiled in a soda solution which separates the resins and non-fibrous matter from the fibers. After being washed and dried the fbers are separated and loosened. A bleach ing pro -ess now converts them in- to an excellent material for stuff fing pillows and mattresses. The fbers are highly valued for this purpose because of their perma- nent pine odor which is considered healthy and Vermin-proof.
 The fbers can also be converted into material known as pine wool" which can be woven into strong. warm fabrics. Pine wool cloth is used for making various articles of clothing in Europe. It is also used in the manufacture of quilts, deafening material for the walls and floors of buildings, knit ting and darning yard, wadding, etc.

Pili4GRA PRtyENTIdN.
Spring Diet Determines Summer Symptoms
 Of the Disease.

A faulty or restricted diet at this season of the year is the chief fac- tor in the production of pellagra Measures to prevent the develop ment Of the disease should be in- stitated during the early Spring months, according to a circular of information issued today by the United States Public Health Ser vice. While the manifestations of nellagra are in most cases not in evidence until June CT July, the condition invariably dates from a faulty diet of earlier months. Therefore. if due precautions are exercised by individuals at the present time the havoc wrought by this seourge may be greatly less ened, if not entirely eliminated.
 The diet recommended by the health service for the prevention of pellagra will not produce results if followed fora week or ten days only. but f continuously and con sistently used, under cifcum- stances similar to it's administration in the various institutions where experimental tests have been per- formed, 1t will protect the individual against development of the disease. Necessarily, a rigid unvatied diet is wholly undesirable and the menu recommended is only to indicate in q general way the character of the food to be prescribed. Frequently the element of proyerty, inaccessi- bility to market supplies, or even personal idiosynorasy, may require some modification of the diet table, so that strict adherence to it's com ponents may not in all respects be practicable. The object of the diet as submitted is to minimize the consumption of the carbo-hy- drate (starchy and sweet) foods and to increase the amount of fresh animal protein and of fresh legumes (peas and beans.)
 The breakfast, for example, should consist of oatmeal and cream, without sugar, with either ham or breakfast bacon and two eggs. Not more than two thin slices of whole wheat bread should be taken, preferably untoa8ted. Hot bread or biscuits are inadyisa- ole. A glass of fresh milk is to ac- company the breakfast and either oranges or grape fruit may be the initial course. The dinner should consist of either pea or bean soup, prepared from dried peas or beans, with a meat stock. The meat may be beef. pork, ham, chicken, veal or mutton, prepared in whatever man. ner is the most appetizing. prefer ence being given to roasting or broiling rather than frying. Ham burger steak, meat hash, or fish may be substituted to afford yarie- ty. Care should be exercised that the meats are not overdone. Of vegetables, Irish potatoes, boiled in the jacket or baked, cabbage. turnip or mustard greens. oollards and lettuce, are to be recommend ed. For dessert, stewed, fresh or dried fruit will prove sufficient The dinner should be accompanied by not more than two thin slices of whole wheat bread and a glass of buttermiik.
