RAG RUGS,

Hit or miss patterned rag rugs are at tractive; out even more attractive are those of single color, or two colors well blended. One way to get good results from dyeing rag rugs is to dye the rags before they are weven-some one color, others another color for the border.
 Another way to dye rag rugs is to have them woven in any colors you have on hand-bright red, for instance, with vel low for tke border, or blue with a border of white. Then dip them into a dye of some neutral color-olive green, gray or some shade of tan or brown.

BEDROOM CARPETS,

There is an excellent way of laying bedroom carpets where rugs are not the rule. Fasten small, strong hooks to the baseboards. close to the floor. and on the edge of the carpet sew corresponding rings. Slip the riggs over the hooks and the carpet is securely laid. By this method carpet may be taken up, shaken and replaced with little labor.

During the last few weeks of the sessions, work has practically been done day and night. This rush of work at the end of the session can be eliminated if members will pre- sent their bills, resolutions and memorials at the beginning of the session."
 Adjournment was taken at 11:30 o'clock until Friday morning at 10 o'clock
 Yesterdays Late Session
 Following the joint session of the Legislature yesterday afternoon, the Senate met for a brief time Sen ator Chamberlin was granted person ter of the distress among the people at Unga, which is contained in an other article in today's Empire.
 Senator Chamberlin then asked about extra copies of the Senate's daily journal for distribution to com merciaf organizations and others, and stated he would like to make re- quest for additional copies. Senator Hess, chairman of the finance and corporation committee, stated he would like to know what was to be done about extra copies for mem bers as the question was one that should be known when bids were requested for printing them. Sen ator Hess also stated that the daily journals probably would prove an enigma to outsiders as the record was not like that contained in the Congressional Record.
 Senators Price and Collins suggested that if the newspapers in the Third Division did not carry daily press dispatches regarding the proceed ings of the legislature. those inter- ested in the doings could subscribe for the Juneau newspapers.
 Senator Hunt said lie believed that the journals would prove of little use to those in the Second and Fourth Divisions as very few copies would reach destinations before the legislature had adjourned.
 Senator Chamberlin then stated he would not make any motion until the printing committee had made a definite report.
 The Senate adjourned at o'clock until 10 o'clock this morning.
