PROTECT YOUR CLOTHING

The surest way to protect cloth
ing from damage by moths dur
ing storage is to rid them of all
moths, eggs, or larvae by beating,
brushing and airing, and then to
seal them up so, that no more
moths will have access to them,
says Miss Ethel Phelps of the
home economics division of the
University of Minnesota. Pack
ages closed by means of strips of
paper pasted over the joints are
safer than packages tied with
string. Large bags of heavy or
tarred paper can be purchased
which may be sealed tight. Bags
made of heavy cotton cloth and
sewed up on the machine will
also be moth proof. Such receipt
acles will provide safe storage
space for the summer if there are
no moths in the garments when
they are put away. Nothing will
prevent moths already present
from developing at the expense OF
the garment.
All wool or fur clothing not
protected in moth-proof bags
should be aired in the sunshine
for several hours at least once
month.
Camphor balls or napthline
may repelI the insects but will
not kill them, and their useful
ness as a repellant disappears
with the loss of strong odor.

Although humanity is now free
from the menace of the kaiser's
mailed fist and sword, there is an.
other freedom which must be gain
ed If we are to be free indeed, and
that is a freedom from the social
and Industrial enslavement of gold
in the hands of those selfish, prof
iteering, autocratic capitalists who
produce little of any real value
but who, although they already
have more of this worlds goods
than they can rightfully employ,
are ever struggling to gain more,
regardless of the fact that by so
doing they are constantly making
it harder for the worlds real work
ers and producers to obtain even
the bare necessities Of life.
While the world war has stopped
in Europe, there are still millions
of people throughout the world
who hate peace and love war, and
who despise the univesra' freedom
to which all mankind IS entitled
and desire only autocracy. At the
moment they are lost sight of but
they still survive in great numbers
on every part of the globe. Many
of them are camouflaging their real
feelings by q pretended fondness
for universal freedom when in re-
ality they loathe it and await only
a favorable opportunity to do their
utmost to destroy it. Perhaps they
may never again dare to strike in
open warfare at our great cOnstitu.
tional guarantees of liberty, but
they worship the god of selfishness
and secretly plan and work for the
regime of the subserviency of the

FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS

LONDON, England.-To many
people, there is something wanting
about a room in which there are
no flowers, however perfect it may
be in all other respects. in sum-
mer, at any rate for people who
live in the country, there is no diff
ficulty about maintaing a constant
supply of flowers; but in winter, for
anyone far from the flowershops,
the case is different, and, if the
garden contains no greenhouse, the
provision of flowers for the house
is not an easy matter. There is a
temptation 10 give it up, and, when
once the summer months are over,
placidly 10 accept the fact that
flOwer-time has gone. IL is how
ever, quite unnecessary to do this
and, when a little thought is given
10 the matter. IL Will be found that
the time when nothing can be
gathered out of doors 10 beautify
ones rooms is remarkably short. a
walk round an apparently flower
less garden, in the late autumn and
early winter. will generally reward
the careful seeker with a handful
of blossom found i'm ones and
tows. here and there about the bor-
ders. Roses, If the trees are care
fully attended 10, may generally be
trusted TO provide a few buds until
well into the winter, and there al
ways seems TO be something es-
peciany charming about these late
rosebuds, although they seldom
open fully. When the time of flow
ers Is really over. something may
still be done with leaves and ber-
ries. Branches of the scarlet-fruit-
ed berries will retain their beauty
throughout the whole winter;
beech boughs will keep their leaves
and these may be pressed by the
simple method OF putting the
branches under a heavy carpet for
a few weeks. If this is done. the
leaves will not curl up.
In really skilled hands much
may be done with apparently un-
promising materials. and the writer

LINEN SHEETS

Every woman should gc over her
linen and take stock a least once
year. She should have some
marks upon the sheets and table
cloths whereby she can tell the
date Of their purchase. In this
way she can tell whether a certain
make is wearing we'll, whether il
does or does not pay to get the best
quality and also tell exactly how
much more is needed to replace
that which must be discarded
Nice linen is expensive, but Il
has been found 10 outwear the
cheaper grades. Furthermore. nice
linen bespeaks refinement in every
way. incidentally the war has
brought about so many uses for
cotton that by next year linen
promises to be less expensive than
cotton. For this reason we can all
reveI in the luxury of sleeping in
linen sheets. using linen towels and
having only the purest OF linen for
