judge on the appearance of facts with

In spite of the fact that appearances
are little against a man who comes

Portable
Corner Closets

Interior decorators have turned to the
old-fashioned corner closet, and are busy
copying the old colonial examples in mu-
seums and antique shops. with the in
tention of bringing them up-to-date. The
idea is to make them portable, even
when they have an appearance OF being
built into the room Such a closet will
be appreciated by people who move often.
who have become accustomed to the con-
venlence of a corner closet and dislike to
leave # behind.
Some of the old designs that have been
rediscovered are charming One old
closet, now being copied, stands eight
feet high and has depth OF two feet
and six inches. At the bottom, there Is
n closet eighteen inches deep with double
doors that lock; the top OF the closet
forms the first shelf. The next shelf.
eighteen inches above the first, IL seal
loped and cut toward the apex OF the
closets angle, the edge being cut out in
little Sits into which teaspoons are
slipped resting on their bowls. where
they form a silver fringe to the shelf
The two shelves above follow the second
shelf in pattern, one being designed for
long stemmed goblets and the other hay
ing hooks for cups. The closet has no
doors. Well may the decorators admire
~4H pattern after this grandmother OF
closets, for 1t has quaint charm that
modern furniture cannot show.
OF course, the closets with doors are
the most practical for they keep tFs con
tents free from dust; OF these the ones
with the diamond shaped panes OF glass
in the door frames are the most attrac-
tive. The new closets are equipped with
baIl-bearing casters which enable the
maid to move them without even Earring
the things on the shelves. Another idea
is TO have closets OF well seasoned yell
low pine, painted and decorated to match
the room in which they are TO be used.
This makes them available for other
rooms besides the dining room, where
they will be appreciated as an added con-
venience. In a child's room. such closet
could be nicely utilized TO hold the smaller
toys; It might be decorated with pictures
OF old Mother Hubbard, on It's white
enameled surface.
The advantage OF the corner ehins
closet. over the one standing out In the
room. is that IL takes ap no available
wall or floor space. Every one realizes
the charm of the octagonal room; thii
same effect may be reproduced In meas
ure by cutting Off two or more corners
through the use OF old-fashioned corner
closets.

One might as well try to suppress the
striped patterns that make their ap-
pearance at this season of the year as
to eliminate the flowers that bloom in
the spring from the scheme Of nature

A lot Of striped shantung is being ad-
vocated just now. The natural color Is
the one in greatest evidence and on this
neutral background are woven stripes
OF brilliant green or rose, dark blue or
yellow. A variation of the idea shows a
white background, and by way of strik-
ing contrast the stripes are frequently
introduced in black.
Much of the beauty of the new out
ing materials is enhanced by the COM
bination of the latter with plain colors.

DOG BITE

DOG 81 z
The teeth of a dog, and to a lesser
extent, of a cat, make a rather ugly
wound.
Pending the arrival of a physician,
the first thing to do for a severe dog
bite is to place a cord tightly around
the finger or limb on the heart side
of the wound, and apply hot water
with squeezing to encourage bleed
ing.
Such wounds should be caUterized,
but this should always be done by a
physician, except in extreme emer-
gencies when no physician can be
reached. In such a case a red hOj
iron wire may be used. A match or
toOthpick dipped in strong nitric or
carboliC acid and introduced into the
wound is another practicable method.
As soon as the bite has been eau
terized, the constructing band should
be removed and the wound dressed
with sterile dressing as in case Of any
other wound.
