1 OndGF COAX OF FainIt
| Kansas City Star: Nowadays when
almost every woman is able success
| fully to WELD a paint brush few
hours work will bring everything on
the porch into pleasant relationship,
| even when the porch Is the dump for
furniture relegated there because it
was thought too shabby for the house.
There Is one essential for satisfac-
tory results in drying paint clear,
dry day must be chosen. If the
weather is damp and muggy the paint
will form into a gumrny surface or
skin and no amount of subsequent
sunshine will remedy 1t.
First consider the background care
fully. With a white or light wall a
soft apple green with darker stripes
for trimming is refreshing and cool
and does away with the glare Of sum
mer's sun. Red brick walls demand
ivory or gray enamel with green or
brown and white striped duck or linen
covers. If a figured cretonne Is chos-
en- for covers a bright bold design IS
best because subdued effects appear
faded and characterless when sub
jected to the strong out-of-doors
light
Two or three coats of paint evenly
applied will make chairs, large table
box seat and tea table amazingly
fresh. Plenty of time should be all
lowed between coats and week Is
not too long a time to devote to the
porch refurnishing
While the furniture Is drying the
covers and pillows may be made and
curtains hung.
with green paint q cretonne of
green, yellow and old rose Is good.
Red porch hangings In this climate
should be avoided for they make the
place look hot, even ii 1t is not.
The table cover should be cut just
the size OF the table top and lined
with heavy drill. four brass rings
should be sewn To the corners and
hooked over brass tacSs under the
edges. This fastening prevents dis
order from wind and saves the break
ing Of many vase. A wall pocket
made on the order OF d shoe bag Is q

and newspapers In when the table Ii

The young hopeful of four years
had been a source of continual veKa-
ton and trouble all through the meal
and at it's finish a lady friend turned
to the chiIds mother and said:
IF your boy belonged to me ]
should not stand so much of his non.
sense at meal times. should give
him a thrashing."
But" said the mother. you can't
smack the poor little fellow on a full

vases of green Jap majolica and a
big crockery bowl or jar stenciled in
gay colors are almost indispensable.
What's to go into the jar? Cracked
Ice, to be sure, with a stone pitcher
Or jug snugly set in the midst and to
hold tea. lemonade. Ice will remain
much longer in this way and the
drink is much more healthfuI IL the
Ice is not in 1t. The little tea table
will be nicely dressed IL a cloth of
old rose linen is made for 1t, the
corners weighted by leaden balls
around which wool or hemp tassels
are hung. Striped. pottery in green
and white would be a charming
service and for the little cakes and
sandwiches which dry so quickly in
the open air round tin boxes, either
made from marshmallow tins or
bought ready decorated, are more ap-
propriate than plates. These tin boxes
may be lined with fitted cream linen
slips edged around the top with
crochet lace. When they are mussed
they can be washed like napkins. f.
OF course, striped awning or grass
mat are part OF the general furnish
ing scheme. A couple OF small wood
en- stools are always convenient and
serve for seats when chairs run short.
