HOUSEHOLD HINTS

Ketchup can be served from the bottles in which it is kept if they are placed in a little metal holder. The cork should be removed in the kitch- en and over the top of the bottle d cap matching the holder should be placed. After each meal the cork should be replaced and the metal cap and holder should be scalded and thoroughly dried. A metal holder comes also for tiny shaker bottles of tobasco or any other similar hot sauce.
 Home made mustard is useful accessory to many meats. There are very small mustard Jars of glass or china, and perhaps the smaller they are the better. For the small ones need redlling after practically each using and therefore they are always freshly filled for each meal
 When serving more than one con diment at meal, and sometimes it is desirable to pass both pickle and a jelly, the compartment dishes may be used. These are made in a glass, silver and china.
 There is a very practical cork bag that I am sure many a housewife will appreciate knowing how to make. It Is made from a straight piece of ma terial such as cretonne, heavy crash or blue or brown denim. It is gath cred at the top by cords run through a narrow casing and, on the ends of the cords as tassels, dangle small corks to show the purpose of the bag.
 The most appreciative part of the bag might be the corkscrew in tassel fashion to the bottom of the bag by means of a clasp like that on the end of a watch chain. The cork srew will always be in place if snap ped back to the bag after using.
 To get the fasteners on a skirt or blouse in the right position, sew the smallest part of the fastener all of the way down on one side and then pin the placket of the skirt together at the top and bottom and press lightly with an iron. This leaves dents on the other side, showing the correct position for the other half After running a tape in a garment sew a small ivory ring to each end of the tape, having the rings a little larger than the casing and you vii have no trouble with the tapes pull ing out,

Under q Fur Coat.

the fronts are faced to form lapels which run into nothing under the square stitched collar of putty broadcloth.
 The triangular opening so formed gives an ideal chance to display a waistcoat of putty cloth scalloped and embroidered in navy blue wool. The design of this embroidery is conventional and will work up quickly in wool thread. If de- sired, chenille or silk may be substituted for wool
 An interesting touch Is found in the tiny pocket which is tailor stitched and finished at each end with an embroidered arrowhead of silk. From this miniature pocket peeps a handkerchief of putty colored linen.
 The belt designed for this gown IS navy Llue suede, punctured with brass eyelets. It is stitched with black and fastens at the back under a brass buckle
 Tho back of the blouse Is plain and is cut long enough to form a peplum, whose fitness is held at the waistline by the suede belt. This peplum is faced with black charmeuse satin.
 The blouse carries the narrow shoulder line and long tight-fitting sleeves. The sleeves are plainly sewed into an arms eye, which snugly fits the arm.
 Round button moulds. covered with tricotine. run for a space of six inches on the sleeves. The same style buttons of larger mould marks one side of the skirt, which is hemmed with a cu& finish.
 This gown is simple enough to stanG a variety of hats, fairly elaborate or entirely severe, though possibly palmer model is the best choice for wear with this frock
 A hat Of navy blue beaver, whose S- ,i- o1ol --,iA . red chenille thread invisibly "couched'' to the hat, is extremely useful and de- lightfully interesting from the color ! point of view The red of the chenille 1 is lovely in combination with navy and putty.

LOUISE BERGMAN.

Louise Brachman was considered one of the greatest female geniuses of the early nineteenth century. She was born in Rochlitz, Germany, in 177S, and became an intimate friend of Schiller and Novalis and was her self a writer and poet of great ability. In her case, as in so many others, genuius brought with it an uneveness of temperament which at times bor- dered on insanity. She was subject 7 to long and continued fits of melan- choly. She had been disappointed in two different love affairs, and when in 1922, another fond hope of hers had been blasted, she committed sui eide by throwing herself into the River Saale. Her most famous works are Poems" Blossoms of -Ro- nance" and Errors" Those works are still preserved.

MINISTRIES OF ST.
 PATRICK ENTERTAIN

The minstrel show given by mem bers of St. Patrick's choir in Colonial hall last night was largely atteNded. The affair was an entire success.
 The principals included Miss Mil dred Simko, Jim Conroy, Charles and Vine Benham, Art Withstandley, Her man Shelinsky, Mary Kelley, George Rajotte, and Steve McManus.
 The chorus was composed of mem- bers of the parish. The organization was splendidly coached by Mike Hea- ley, and had the services of Miss Lil- ilan Sullivan, organist for the church, as accompanist. One of the most en- joyable features was the rendition of Sons of America" by Miss Aurelia Berger, aided by the chorus.

THE 'LIBERATOR OF
 SOUTH AhFERTCA''

General Simon Bolivar, "the Libera- tor of South America" and first presi- dent of Venezuela, Bolivia and Peru, died 88 years ago today, Dec. IT, 1880, after having driven the Spaniards out of a large part of the continent. Gen eral Bolivar is often referred to as "The George Washington of South America" His first victories were won in Venezuela and New Grenada, which united to form the republic of Colombia, of which he was chosen first president in 1919. Afterwards he fought and won the independence of Peru, it's upper district being made a separate nation, which, in honor of the liberator, was named Bolivia

in a corner is a popular style just now. It is both pretty and health full, but is apt to crowd small bed room.
 If chaise lounge or day bed is one of the comforts of the room a position close to window, is nice for it because one can lounge sometimes in sunshine and get plenty of light to read by. A bedroom with a bay window is particularly charming with a chaise lounge filling the curving space.
 A shirtwaist box or cedar chest of ten fits in nicely at the foot of the bed and it provides a convenient place for extra bedding either on top of it or within 1t.
 Whichever article of furniture, bureau, dressing table or chiffonier- is used to dress before should have the best position to secure good light. Sometimes a position against an inner wall that catches light from windows in front of it will reflect light into the face satisfactorily when one dresses, Strong daylight for the dressing mir TOT is essential as well as a good arr rangement near electric fixtures for evening use. Sometimes a bureau 1an be placed directly against a window with good results.
