Before the first mornings selling was fair

ENOUGH CHAIRS.

Many Young housewife going 70 her

question Of devising substitutes for chairs
in the way Of inexpensive window seats
and stools Is frequnetly pondcred hy the
hostess who has more friends than re-
sources.
Here are some possible ways Of getting
more chairs al q very small outlay.
If you can beg. borrow, or steal any
sort Of object that has the shape Of a
chair and is not actually wobbiy ii can be
made quite presentable BY the use OF
little crctonne OF other upholstery ma
terial. Even an old kitchen char viii do
y ou can restore an old dining room chair
that has lost It's seat without going to the
expense of having 1t reeained which Is
considerable at present. To do that first
brace the seat frame by laclng it in and
out with splints or merely strengthen
with STRIPS of ticking or burlap- Then
buy thin wood seats or paper seats such
as can be bought for twenty or thirty
cents a piece and nail them firmly in
to position. Now over this seat place
thin, but soft padding ordinary cotton
batting in a neat case will do If YOU
want to make the chair really luxurious
fasten another cushion across the back
Now paint with some enamel that har-
monies with the furnishings Of the room
in which you intend to use this restored
chair legs Of the chair. ii is now
ready for the cretonne cover. TO make
this YOU will need more patience than
actually q craftsman, though it need
not be a model Of perfect fit, either, cut
the cover on generous lines-seam it up
and draw it ON inside out and then make
such alterations as YOU would in fitting

the alterations. try il on again and then
stitch it. 4 chair Of this sort would really

Then, each customer, as he purchases each
article, pays exactly 20 per cent below the
marked price.
A single example will suffice Today, as
every man knows, is Straw Hat Day.
We had prepared for it long in advance
We had already decided that prices Of the
famous Lincoln Bennett and Redeaf hats
which we believe to be the worlds best were
to be marked at the same fgures as last year

The hats in just as the plan and an

and 50, with the privilege 70 you of buying
them at 20 per cent off.

When N. c. Macdonald, elected by the
farmers to state superintendent Of
public instruction, began his work in
this state, there were only 95 such
schools In the entire state. The in

the support given him by the farmers
legislature and farmer-elected state
officials, who stood for getting the
farmers child the same school advan.
