CHEAT IMP OF WAkEFULNESS
Some Methods by Which 1t Is Said
the Drowsy God May Be Sue
cessfuIIy Wooed. =

Sufferers from sleeplessness should
try this trick. Have pair of binders
made from double thickness of black
silk. These should just cover the eyes,
with cut for the nose, being held in
place by a broad elastic band. Hang
these on the bed post, and if the morn
ing light comes in too early put them
on. Another remedy is suggested by
the sleeping methods of pigs. Tie two
paper clips to either end of a cord
seven or eight feet long. Clip the top
Of the counterpane with one and a.
soft weight with the other. If not
sleeping after 15 minutes, pull the
counterpane over your head. This in
duces that long, even breathing, nat
ural to the approach of sleep, as may
be noticed in pigs. AS one dozes of,
the band holding the counterpane re-
lakes. and the weight pulls it down,
so that one is again breathing fresh
air. People suffering from insomnia
should, when travelng, nsst upon a
t.ouble bed in quiet room. Be sure
that it is not over the kitchen or near
motor garage, or facing clock that
sounds the quarter hours, or within a
girls throw of fowl house.

Coupled with this good interior is an
exceptionally attractive exterior. While
the roofs of this bungalow, on both
the house itself and over the porch,
would come under the general term
of a gable, there is a wide overhang
that is usually called a "hip' roof,
which makes the roof lines exceeding
ly graceful. The sides of the house
are of shingles, and with the lattice
work that is alongside the small
porches are attractive.
This is only one of the many de-
signs for frame bungalows that have
been drawn by architects and from
which thousands Of homes have been
| built. But it is an excellent exam
pie Of this style of architecture, and is
home that every builder will find
most satisfactory, both in appearance
and in interior arrangement.
While everyone knows, especially II
he is considering a home-building prof
ect for the coming season, that there
will be an immense amount Of house
construction next spring and summer
it may be well to sound a warning
That warning is that if the home i.
wanted during the season, the time tt
select the design and let the contrac
for the house is now. If the home
builder delays until spring, he will fine
it difficult to secure the services of ,
first-class contractor and may expert

materials. Disappointment will b.
avoided if the home-building plans ar
made as quickly as possible.

Apple Snow.-Pare and quarter tart
apples, add boiling water and cook un-

two cupfuls of pulp add a half cupful
of honey and the grated rind of half
lemon, with the juice. Heat to the
boiling point, add one and one-haIf
tablespoonfuls of granulated gelatine
softened in one-third of cupful of
cold water, and stir until the gelatine
is melted. Chill, and when the mix
ture begins to jelly, add the stiffy
beaten whites Of two eggs, and beat
with Dover egg beater until very s,ne.
Turn into a mold, and when firm,
serve unmolded with cream or boiled
custard.
Compete of Bananas.-Make a siru ,
of sugar or honey and half a cupful
of water. Peel and scrape two or
three bananas, then cut in thin slicer
add to the sirup and boil, shaking the
pan to cook all sides evenly. Add a
little lemon rind or orange rind for
flavor to the sirup. Skim the bananas
as they soften, to a plate. When all
are cooked, boil down the sirup a lit
tie, and when cool add the bananas.
Fruit SaIad.-For each service take
a slice of pineapple, the flesh of ono

But aside from the pleasure derived
from this study it is well worth while.
Building home is move that should
not be taken without careful consid-

neither is there satisfaction in cad-

ART WORKS ON LARGE SCALE
Interesting Figures Concerning Decora-
tions for Lincoln Memorial Build
ing at Washington.

Simply to stretch the canvas, says
Jesse Lynch Williams, describing in
Scribner's Magazine how Jules Guerin
painted the decoration for the Lincoln
Memorial building in Washington, re-
quired eight men, which is less sur
prising when one realizes that each fig
ure in the groups Mr.. Guerin was about
to paint is good deal larger than the
painter himself. One agrees with the
writer that. although such details are
not necessary to art appreciation, it is
interesting to know that the two un-
painted canvases cost S4O0 apiece, and
that when the artist finished his work
the paint he had used added $50 pounds
to their weight. And because the paint
ings will be somewhat exposed to
weather, the paint was mixed with
wax, in way which chemical analysis
shows was done to weatherproof paint
ing when the ancient kings of Egypt
were erecting memorial buildings.

tains five good-sized rooms-living ana
dining rooms. kitchen and two bed
rooms.
All OF these rooms are arranged to
secure the maximum of comfort and
convenience with minimum of house
work. 1t will be noted that the three
living rooms. or rooms that are used
most, are grouped at the front of tho
house, while the two bedrooms adjoin
each other at the rear, with the bath
room so placed that it is convenient to
every room.
The living room, extending across
the front of the house, is large room
and a cheerful room. Its dimensions
are % by IL feet, and light is admitted
from three sides. The triple windows
at the front wi appeal to every home
loving woman. The fireplace, placed
in the corner of the room, adds to the
cheerfulness of the room, and it can be
imagined how much comfort will be
derived from this feature during the
cold weather.
! Connected with the living room by
a double-cased opening, is the dining
room, also large 1t is u feet wide
and II feet long, and is well lighted
by series of four windows in the cut
side wall. Off the dining room is the
kitchen, 10 by 10 feet, which has {
door leading to the artistic little side
porch shown on the perspective.
A second door leads from the dining
room into a short hall which connect:
the two bedrooms and bathroom. Ont
bedroom is ten feet square, and thu
other II by 13 feet. From this brie
description and by studying the foo
plan, it will readily be seen that thi
is an extraordinarily comfortable an,
convenient arrangement.

HAS PLETHORA OF SUNDAYS
Little Town of Sarajevo, in Bosnia,
Observes Three Days of the
Week as Holy.

Sunday is observed three times a
week in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Because
there are $4,000 Turks in the city,
Friday is the first Sunday. Then all
the Turkish stores close and one goes
twice a day to some of the hundred
mosques whose slender minarets

ground of the hills.
Because 200 years ago a group of
Spanish Jews settled in Bosnia, Sat

Then all the Jewish stores are closed
and the Jews of the city crowd the
big yellow synagogue of the main
street.

Baboons Prefer Cooked Food.

It is somewhat remarkable that, al
though a baboon in captivity will not
eat raw meat unless extremely hungry,
it will eat with avidity meat which has
been cooked. Since the large exten-
sion of sheep farming and the conse-
quent restriction of their natural food
supplies, baboons in some parts have
developed the habit of raiding fiocks
in the lambing season and tearing
open the stomachs of the lambs for
the sake of the milk which these con.
tain. This practice has led to the vir.
tual determination of balloons over
large areas. However, in justice to
the raiders it should be noted that ii
is only when food is very scarce in.

Our Faults.

Dirt has been hopefully defined as
something out of place." This ad.
mirable definition applies no less en-
couragingly to some faults. Where
actually placed, they are faults; placed
elsewhere they might develop into vir-
tues. Let obstinacy cleave to the
right, avarice hoard in heaven, covet-
BUSINESS hunger after the best gifts
rashness launch out into ventures of
faith, and then obstinacy, avarice
covetousness and rashness may look
