nounced us as being foolish for undertaking the inn

about to do, tells us that neither political party

Word from the seat of government at Santa Fe
is that every official the handwriting on the

We are curious to know which politicians of the
state reject this effort to put the power back into
the hands of the people. Any who ressts this

OIDEN DREAMS.
by Edgar A. Guest.

DTowsy old summer, with nothing to do,
I'd like to be drowsn' an dreamn with you
+ I'd like to stretch out in the shade Of a tree
An fancy the white clouds We're ships out at sea,
An conjure up pictures OF treasures an things
All peopled with pirates an princes an kings.
An Just drench my soul with the glorious joy
Which was mine to possess as a bare footed boy.
! Drowsy old summer, your skies are as blue
AS the skies which a dreamy eyed youngster once
knew
An l fancy today all the pictures there
5 The ships an the pirates am prncesses fair,
The red scenes of battle the gay, cheering throngs
Which greeted the hero who righted all wrongs;
But somehow or other, these old eyes of mine
Can't see what they did youngster of nine.
Drowsy old summer, ia like to forget
Some things which I've learned an some hurts
have met;
I'd like the old vision of splendor an 10y I'D
Which were mine TO possess as a barefooted boy
When dreamed of the glorious deeds woHd do
AS soon as I'd galloped my brief boyhood thru
I'd like to come back an look into your skies
With that wondrous belief an those far-seeing
eyes,
Drowsy old summer, my dream days have gone
An the things which real must now look
upon;
No longer l see in the skies overhead
The pictures that Were for the last one has fled;
/ have learned that not all of our dreams can
come true
That the toilers are many and heroes are few:
But Fd like once again to look up there an see s,
The man that fancied some day might be.

LETTERS ON INTERIOR
DECORATION.

Disappointed.-"M husband and
I chose a lovely rug OF old-blue
some months ago at a furniture
store in a nearby city--and they
have delivered to us totally diff
ferent rug. The one they have
sent Is a bluff color and is not bad
to look at, but of course does not
help to carry out the color scheme
as the old-blue one would have
done. What would you suggest?
Is there anything to be done in the
way of dyeing 1T? We had to wait
so long to get this one because OF
freight conditions that We don't
want to bother TO exchange 1t and
wait as long again. The rug is a

Answer-Interior decorators have
achieved wonderful effects with
rugs by applying oil paint mixed
with naphtha. Just buy pint OF
naphtha and a tube of the regular
artists oil paint of the shade you
want, and soften the paint with the
naphtha. Apply it to the rug with
an inch wide paint brush. You
might pick out certain parts of the
pattern or you might do whole
portions solidly at regular intervals
around the entire rug.

keeping with our quaint, oldfash-
toned furniture. We don't want to
go to the expense of buying a plain
one just now, and | happened to
think you might tell us of some
way to paint or disguise 1t"
Answer Make a shirred cover
for your art dome of thin silk of
the same color as that which forms
the main note in your dining room
color scheme. The patchwork like
pattern of stained glass will show
through and you will find that it
adds to the general effect rather
than detracts from it. Before maxi
ing the cover, experiment with
odd pieces of silk by hanging a
small piece over the dome at night
when the lights are turned on. In
this way you can be sure of getting
a covering that looks well both by
day and night before you so to the
expense and trouble of making up
the cover.

Answer When white willow
