WI ~Jt
 good books need not be told @ how to take care of them, but
 the person who really loves books is rare. Many of us enjoy them to the extent of picking up book in our idle hours, to receive from it's pages entertainment, instruction or amusement. That is our sole interest in the book. AS to how it fares once it is out of OUT hands we give not 8 thought. Whether it is put away on its proper shelf, whether it is dusted regularly, we know not, and, what is more, in many instances, care not.
 This is all wrong. A book is treas ure' of thought and should be given some consideration. Those who are not willing to assume the responsibil- ity of owning books should not have them in their homes. They should give away the transient volumes which they read one day and forget the next. Some one will be glad to care for them and treasure them atstheir worth.
 Books that are well kept have a dec orative value in the home which should make them respected if for no other reason. The room that is lined with books immediately assumes a digni- fled thoughtful appearance that cannot be gained by the costliest furniture.
 The best sort of book shelves are the open ones, built in a nook or ccr- ner of a room. These, of course, en- tail more care as the contents of the shelves must be dusted frequently, but they are better for the books than a closed case. Have the shelves rather deep and bring the books out to the front edge of the shelf rather than crowding them back against the wall. They look better, may be dusted more easily, and where the walls are damp are not so likely to become moldy. Tip the books gently forward and dust the tops each day; occasionally take them down, two or three at time, and care fully dust them and the shelf behind them. Commence, of course, with the top shelf.
 The best way to do this is to spray the books and shelves, by means of an atomizer, with oil of lavender, penny royal or any of the other perfumed es- sential oils This will drive away all suspicion of mold.
 Often a book seems ruined when grease or oil is spilled upon it, but all traces of these spots may be removed by sprinkling the spots thickly with little powdered pipe clay. Over this should be placed a piece of heavy brown paper and hot iron should be applied. The iron should be hot, but not hot enough toiscorch the sheet. If the powder sticks to the book rub 1t off gently with soft eraser.
 If the leaves of book have become soiled from much usage, they can be considerably freshened by rubbing first with a piece of stale bread to take oil the loose dirt. Then lay clean piece of plotting paper moistened in a sat urated solution of oxalic acid, and go over this with a hot iron. Do not use enough of the solution to wet the page, but simply moisten the leaf of the, book with the acid.

@ AMY days are unwelcOme vis- 6N itors to the average woman, M but if she has practical turn
 of mind she may utilize such days to good advantage. There are many small tasks one can do on a rainy day-little odds and ends of work that seem irksome and bother some if one decides on doing this work where the sun is shining. Therefore, the prudent housekeeper will welcome rainy day now and then and while engaged in small, but necessary tasks, make the dreary hours pass pleasant ly.
 Every one knows how quickly bu- reau and dresser drawers become dis arranged and where young children are in, the household it is next to i'm possible to keep such drawers in apple pie order. Therefore, why not clean out the dresser drawers the next rainy day? Take out all contents, remove the drawers and brush them thoroughly. Line the bottoms with clean newspa- pers. as printers ink is excellent for keeping down ants and other insects. Dainty crepe paper may be used to cover the newspaper, and if one cares AOA = o"SOSp NOAASdIC OOOl OA AlA6CIl lC or bed linen tiny bit of good sachet powder should be sprinkled in the drawer
 All useless articles that have been accumulated should be discarded. How ever, bits of lace or ribbon should be washed, pressed and put in a box, or boxes, labelled to identify their con- tents. Velvet that is wrinkled or life less should be well shaken. dampened on the wrong side and steamed. "Steaming' is simply drawing the dampened wrong side over hot flat iron. Heat the iron to pretty high temperature, turn it on its side on the back or cool part of the range or gas stove. Hold the velvet ribbon or piece of velvet firmly between both hands and draw it slowly Con the wrong side, of course) over the sharp edge of the hot fatiron. The pile of the goods will come, back into shape, showing new life and lustre. Then when all pieces are thoroughly dry fold them, or, better still, roll them loosely and put away in a labelled box.
 When autumn days arrive all these odds and ends of velvet will come in very handy to trim or make the Tween Seasons" hat all women and girls require.

MONEY AND
 a CAREER
BY ANNETTE ANGERT.

T DOR little persons who have
 never known anything stable @ in their home, who have to
 earn their own living as soon as they can toddle, they have reasons for cringing and lying, for cheating and sharp practice, for discomfort, envy, hatred and malice, and all un- charitableness. which might overcome many of us happier folk. Of course, they do not all succumb. That "the poor in loom is bad" is no. more true than that all the rich are villains. But poverty has it's dangers to the immor- tai soul
 All this, you naturally complain, is argument from extreme cases. Sup pose it is granted that grinding pover- ty is disastrous, it does not follow that certain scarcity of means is not wholesome. Nearly all the great men of the world were born poor" we are told in one of those impressive facile congratulations. But is it so? You think of Shakespeare. Certainly he was poor; possibly without the stimulus of need he would never have written a line. But who can prove that? Or, if you could, what is the use of the unique case of Shakespeare as a gen. eral guide? Look at some other poets. Goethe came of the well-to-do middle class. Shelley was heir to a consid- erable estate. Take the men of action. Napoleon, indeed, is an example of the stimulus of poverty. But even he came of good family, and could enter the schools of his time and country.
 In our own country Washington was a gentleman of wealth and breeding. Lincoln, on the other hand. was pitt fully poor.
 Turn to our big financiers They seem to be about equally divided be- tween boys who were helped to their present high stations by the fact of having fathers of wealth behind them and boys who made their own way in the world through sheer pluck added to brains
 If we are to deduce anything from such examples, it seems to be that neither wealth nor poverty is the best school of greatness, but a modest stat us which, while sufficient to liberats young persons from the handicap of poor living, poor education, bad breed ing and so forth, leaves them to fight for their own hand. Such conclusion omits the advantages of influence, friends who can give helping hand and the like. which most of our hap hazard instances enjoyed. Moreover, it is to be remembered that the num- Der of children born to vast wealth is insignificant.

 OF ANGER

RH-HERE are few things that can

 angry tone. Mothers especial ly should try to overcome this habit. Children are ltantslizing at times-we all admit this, but each one of us has been a child, and perhaps we. too. often broke the rules laid down for us.
 It is when young people are going to work-their first positions proba- bly-that the employer should re- member his or her first days in the business world, and give the young man or woman a fair chance to show what he or she can do. To lose pa- tience with them-to speak in an angry tone because of some unconscious mis- take-the result of inexperience, is not woman. Many young persons who now hold responsible positions look back with terror on their first ''boss." whose Reconsideration and sarcasm made life nightmare in the first few days of their business career.
 
 Giving way to anger is taking most unfair advantage of the person who ia compelled to listen. Heaven knows we all have failings, but why be taken unkindy and sarcastically to task for them? A good old man once gave this advice to young person who had a lofty idea of himself-"Remember a gentleman should never let his temper get the better of him. When the angry word rises to your lips. stop to count seven; if still inclined to give way to your anger, count twenty, and by thai time you will have come to your senses will have won victory over your. self and most likely over the person who provokes you"
 One story of the great war now rag ing in Europe relates that during a petty quarrel a little French bride drove her young husband away from her with angry words. That very day he joined the army, and was killed in his hrSt engagement. Can any one picture the anguish of that little bride when news was brought to her of her husbands death? The memory of those last angry words she addressed to him will always remain with her. and time or distance will never efffface them.
 Anger serves absolutely no purpose. A trivial matter that amounts to noth- ing will cause lifelong friends to be- come bitter enemies. Spite fences lew suits-even the taking of human life have resulted from giving way to an angry mood. The man or woman who makes no effort to overcome this habit shoud certainly follow the ad- vice of the gentle old man quoted above. Smoothing over any little diff ficulty is accomplishing sort of feat, because little difficulties" can in a flash become gigantic troubles, and gf- gantic troubles take a long time-Eerr often nfetime-to- xaotifx

RAG RUGS

Nl RETTY ana inexpensive rugs
 can be made for bathrooms @ and also bedrooms from old
 percale dresses. The only ex- pense is a long wooden needle, ten inches long and thicker than lead pencil. The rags should be cut and not torn, to avoid the threads hanging They should be cut three-quarters of an inch wide, sewed together just as rags for old-fcshioned rag carpets.
 Crochet a chain of several inches and make in this way center, and then knit around and around, throwing the rag thread over before putting the needle through the chain. You must put in two stitches to keep, it from drawing up like poke. Put your nee dle through the back part of the stitch and use your taste in knitting the col 1ors. Finish with an edge like an old fashioned tidy.

women wash the hair with liquid brewed from camomile leaves to pre- serve the color and brighten the gold en tints in the hair. This is an abso- lutely harmless herb and will strengthen rather than harm the hair. Different colors of blond hair require different proportions of the leaves. Fix pertinent with a small piece of your hair before applying the liquid. The very best champoo is the white of an egg beaten into pint of soft ccol wa ter Rub the shair with the egg, mak- ing soft father, after wetting the hair with cold water, and finish the same as with any other shampoo, except the last rinsing water, which should be cold.
