MAKE HOME A BEAUTY SPOT
"atter ts More One Of Careful
Thought Than Mere Expenditure
OF Actual Cash.

The Frightening up" process ought
TO start with the lot line. Invest in
some fertilizer for the lawn-youII be
surprised at the good it will do. Then.
over IN one corner may be a spot
where spirea, or a climbing rose
could work wonders in transformation.
Perhaps the sidewalk entrances NAV
need repairing, or the porches have
to be painted. and surely every two
or three years house needs a coat
or two OF good paint, remembering
the slogan that when you "save the
surface. you save ALL" Then the ga
rage and the flower garden come in
for their share Of new things. Perhaps
there's cracked window pane some
where that needs replacing, or a cup
board to build.
Inside the home, most folks clear
eway the dirt and the CRIME and the
smoke of winter hours with a vigor-
GUS application of the scrub brush,
plus the services of good decorator.
A few dollars invested in matters
like these aids the inmates Of any
dwelling, no matter how modest or
pretentious, to get a new grip on life
But just word of caution before
you do anything. Consider well what
should be done, make your plans. then
60 to dealers you can trust and make
your purchases, keeping in mind the
fact that those who advertise their
wares, who are unafraid to speak of
the merits of their merchandise pub
licly, through newspaper columns are
the ones to turn to both for advice
and for the actual investment of the
dollars you have planned to spend for
the little things that help make a
house home.
After dark the Careless Cit throws
the paper off the bread out the kitchen
window Of his apartment to his neigh
bor's lawn, to save himself ten steps
to the incinerator, and when he sees
small boys throwing a milk bottle or
a dead electric bulb on the pavement,
spraying glass in the path Of vulner-
able tires. Careless Cit laughs and
says boys will be boys.
Home doesn't begin at the front door
and end at the back. 1t goes from the
curb to the alley fence. 1t takes In
the clothesline and the green shutter
and every bough of the apple-tree.
Poets may rave of the old oaken, moss
covered bucket, but they don't drink
out of it. The inconveniences of the
summer hotel are all right when you're
on q vacation.
The time Of home regeneration is
here, however, and it doesn't end until
the blackness cast up by the radiator
is cleansed from the wall and the In
door hicks of winter have disappeared
under the application Of elbow-grease.

SORRY SHE DIDN'T LIKE IT
But Anyway, That Particular Hat
Wasn't for Sale, and 1t Made
Little Difference.

In and out of department stores and
millinery shops went the Woman and
her friend, trying on hats trimmed
with robbOn, hats smothered In feath-
ers and hats where bloomed flowers
that never were on sea or land. The
Woman's friend was as hard to suit
as the little girl in the Three Bears. -
They were all "tOo" something. The
Woman was growing weary, and spy
ing an attractive black hat with some
spidery white feathers in heap be-
fore another fussy shopper, she point
ed it out to her friend.
"Try to get chance at that un-
usual hat. 1t has great deal Of dis
tinction," she whispered.
The friend sidled up to the show
case, and when the fussy shopper was
trying on a yellow-flOwered creation,
she seized the hat and viewed the ef-
feet in the glass, exclaiming: ugh!
don't like this one little bit"
Excuse me, madam" icily said the
fussy shopper, ''that is my own hat
bought in Kenosha. Sorry you don't
admire .t."-Chicago Journal.

CACRAMENTO, CALIF.-At the
- opening of the recent celebration
here Of the seventy-fifth anniversary
of the coming of Capt. John A. Sutter,
founder Of the city, Gov. William D.
Stephens addressed his words not to
q ''sea Of faces" but to forest OF
whiskers." And now the question Is:
"How many of the boards will stay?'
You see, the Forty-niners all wore
boards because they couldn't take the
time from picking out nuggets to
shave. &c.. for the celebration all the
men grew boards by decree OF a
kangaroo Court" which enforced its
decree. Before this court the wretched
shavelings were dragged by the city
police. sheriff's deputies and volun-
teers. Males Of whiskerabie age found
In the street with smooth chins were
seized and sometimes handcuffed.

I had been tramping through the

to teach the porter much-needed les

"Why didn't you clean my shoes,

II didn't know you wanted 'em

"Why in thunder do you reckon l
put 'em outside the door?"
"Well, sab, I allowed there wasn't
