CLOSE UP THE, HOUSE.

It's warm, isn't it? And of course it will get warmer So naturally you must be thinking about vacationing for a while in some cool little spot you know of, far or near.
 A vacation isn't worth the railroad fare, if you must worry all the time about the house at home. Nor do you enjoy rushing madly on the last day, shutting up the house in a hurry. With a little itemized planning, this work can be done gradually, day by day, during perhaps week or ten days before the vacation start for fresh fields.
 Plan the meals so that food will not be left over to spoil.
 Clear the tops of bookcase, tables and mantles of small articles that will gather dust At the same time take down all heavy hangings if they did not go several weeks ago, during the housekeeping.
 Bookcase, china closet and linen closet sure to get their interiors dusty if left to themselves, may be made dustproof by stuffing the door cracks with newspaper strips. Pictures should be encased in cheese cloth slips, along with the elettric lamp fix lures.
 If you don't want to trust rugs in storage at the cleaners leave them on the floors, but scatter tar balls or camphor over them to keep the moths away. Stuffed furniture pieces should be covered with slips, or with home made substitutes of old sheets.
 As you go about the house, don't forget to pick up all stray matches, and bottles of com bustible cleaning fluids that might be the cause of fire
 Early on the last day, or the, day preceding that, if you must leave in the morning, you can then easily wind up the house closing process. In the first place, take the silverware to a safety deposit box at your bank if you value it.
 Clear away all food, even to the staples; wash the refrigerator care fully and let it air thoroughly. Then put in 1t a lump of charcoal to absorb Sprinkle insect powder around the pipes and chloride of lime in the drains, rub stove pipes with an oiled cloth and drain the water from heaters and boilers, letting fresh wa ter run in. Have the water and gas turned off for the whole house.
 Then, as a thought for your own further vacation enjoyment, leave your forwarding address at the post office and arrange to have a home paper sent to you.

The first application of Howard $ Buttermilk Cream will astonish you. It Creates beauty almost like magic.

It actually vanishes from sight and the most heated atmosphrre will not produce the least shininess or greasiness of the skin.
