efficient HOUSEKEEPING
By LAURA A. KIRKMAN.

Or splendid paper-weight!
A flour sitter or sieve could
bear this couplet:
Married life is turn about;
This will help you sift things out
Two aluminium mixing spoons
might be labeled:
When the honeymoon Is over
And the housekeeping begun,
NAV you still remain "in clover
With two spoons that beat as one.
Space will not permit me to
print more verses of this nature,
but IL you cannot make up more
along these lines, you could open
a dictionary of poetic quotations
and copy out r line or two that
would be appropriate--perhaps
changing the quotations slightly
to make them gift"
II you wish, you could make 1t
q Utility Shower, instead of Tin
Shower, and this would enable
you to have pieces OF househ old
linen for some of the gifts. A

be included, bearing this verse:
Two Is company. three's a crowd.
But often, without doubt.
You'll have guest within your
nest;
Then bring this wee towel out.

provided $12,5O0 next year and

corner of the room, and read the
article closely.
Horace Barnes, man about

taken in a tea room where he was
dancing with a lady. a Mrs. Brown.
In taking him the police think they
have found the man who, under
different names. is responsible Tor
a series of forgeries that have
baffled them for a long time so
cleverly have they been carried on.
Barnes was unable to procure bail
in the amount asked so was locked
up pending his trial.

Almost paralyzed with fear
Helen found a hat as different as

NJ NARY BILL, IF
PASSED, To HELP
INDIAN DRAINAGE

According to current information
gwen out here, the drainage of In
ulan lands in the Rio Grande valley
Will be delayed and made more OK
penslve unless the general drainage
provided under the McNary bill is
accepted by the people of the val
leys along the river.
About 1900 acres OF Indian land
are subject to drainage, but only
about 10000 acres of this tract can
be feasibly made separately subject
TO reclamation, TO drain the other
hooO acres would entail multiplied
expense and would require much
more time. Local officials of the
Indian offices are OF the belief that
the only way in which satisfactory
and yet economical drainage could
be applied to the Indian lands
would be the grouping OF those
lands under the general provisions
of the McNary bill.
Appropriations from congress for
the surveys and examinations
necessary to outline the Indian
drainage projects are the only
monetary advances made to this
time. 1t is expected, however, tha.
when an accurate survey is made,
congress will appropriate a certain
amount for the work. Were the
Indian land drainage included I'M
der the McNary bill. time and
money would be saved, according
to Indian irrigation officials.

BEAUTY CHATS
A GENERAL EXAMINATION.
BY Edna Kent Forbes,

You should be your harshest
critic. one reason is that it is
an excellent way to forestall cri'
ticism. Another reason is that
YOU should be the fairest judge
of yourself since you know your
self so well that you should be
conscious of all your defects.
IT is easier to critcise yourself
physically than mentally because
you can hold a mirror up to your
self and find the flaws in your
complexion, There is no such
simple way to find the flaws in
your character.
Someone has said that woman
should be her own worst enemy,
She should, in fact, be a whole
host of enemies She should see
all the things about herself that
anyone else could possibly criti-
eize. She should see where her
hair lacks beauty so that she can
find the way TO improve it. She
should see the flaws in her COM
pleNion, the prominent pores, the
muddy color, the wrinkles that
are appearing more and more fire.
quently. She should see where
her mouth is bad and study to
improve its expression.
She should criticize. the appear.
ance OF her neck, remembering
that most women have very ugly
necks. She should stand before a
full length mirror and look cri-
tically to see whether she holds
her chest and shoulders well,
whether her arms are graceful,
her figure slim and elastic, hec
waist fat and her hips too broad.
She should walk up and down
before the mirror to see how she
looks in motion, for few women
have a graceful gait She shou d
even sit before the mirror to study
her Characteristic attitudes.
None of this is vanity, in fact il
the woman is really critical that
Is the opposite of vanity.

A KITCHEN SHOWER FOR THE

"J know YOU recently wrote

"but that shower you described

I would suggest, in reply to
this letter. that the gifts bought
for the shower be fairly small,
so that they will go inside a large
dishpan. Tho top of the dishpan
could then be covered with white
crepe paper tied on with white
ribbon-thus making large

be placed on the dining room
table and the engaged girl would
be invited to "cut' the pie" Aft
onward light refreshments could
be served right there.

tying verses on each article. This
will make fun when the engaged
girl reads them aloud. A johnny

typewritten on a small attached
slip of paper:

Be sure that it is light.
The surest plan to keep a man
Is through his appetite.
