THE HOUSEHOLD

Primitive man when he first put up
shelf had made wide stride forward
in the science of domestic economy. Or
was it primitive woman? To be sure,
shelves are sometimes solace to men
as well as women. The college professor
when he finds that he has more books
than he can afford to buy bookcases for,
sometimes bedecks the walls of his study
with shelves of his own making, and the
young business man. when his records
and files warrant his taking a larger
office, sometimes avoids that expense by
shelving some of them on the upper wall
space of his business abode. But every
housewife everywhere resorts to shelves
and not even the proverbial hairpin helps
her out of more difficulties.
Sometimes she doesn't have enough
shelves, however, and sometimes she
tries to get along without them when
she first moves into new quarters and
only resorts to them after considerable
brain storm from trying the impossible
of seeking to put the maximum of per-
sonal effects in the minimum of drawers,
wardrobes and closets.
There is always room for one or two
shelves in your bathroom, and the best
