to go on with his mother. She had
tried brides and was now threaten
ing.
First of all, l wouldn't have that
kind of child. A mother who uses
brides and threats to make a child do
the most evident thing is all wrong.
To begin with, she had no right to
take the boy on tresome shopping
trip. If she can't leave him at home,
she had better make several shorter
trips, rather than keep him out so
long at one time. Maybe she has
promised him something which she
failed to carry out, like toy or ice
cream. Youngsters soon learn when
promises like that are as empty as
air. What is more than likely is that
this is not the first time the child has

M III RS. BENNETT sat reading a

made it double interesting, for it
said:
Dear Auntie-All the boys called
you Auntie, didn't they, when they
stayed with you during the war?
And you will let me, too, won't you?
Because, you see, I married one of
them. We just moved to Port
bay, which is not so very far from
where you live.
"But, oh, am SO rev at house
keeping, and Bob talks so much
about the nice things you used to
cook. Do you think you could write
and tell me how you planned the
meals they all enjoyed so much. I
have seen your picture, and know
that you are kind. Will you help me
just little. For Bob's sake?"
With one hand Auntie reached for
a timetable, and with the other for
her .fayorite cookbook. 1t was not

acted like this and she has not
dealt with him properly before"
WELL" pursued the friend, "sup-
posing this were the first time and it
were your child, what would you do?
I'm anxious to know?"
I'D leave him entirely alone, that
is after I had carried him off bodily
to some less conspicuous place, like
the rest room. I'd set him down
there until his tantrum was over, or
if it threatened to become hysterical
I'd try dousing with cold water.
This produces a reaction and quiets
the nerves. When the youngster had
quieted down he would go home di-
rectly, and if I felt that there was no
valid reason for the tantrum except
pure naughtiness, he would be pun
ished. If I felt that he was tired,
disappointed, sick maybe, I would
let it pass by, but would see that the
situation was not repeated again."
Sounds good" said the friend
convinced, for she knew the good
sense which directed most of the
actions of her logical friend.

how you managed to be always

There are three habits that help
about that; one is the early morn
ing habit which gets the baking out
of the way between chores. Another
is the gelatine habit that furnishes
many delicious deserts, and the last
is the freless cooker habit. I'll leave

Rejuvenating Your Old
Furniture

PTN AXE a look about your home.
You are sure to find some fur
niture that needs rejuvenat-
ing. 1t is all very well to talk OF
buying other pieces when this is
worn out, but, in the meantime, the
old and the new, are laughing at each
other. 3"
Begin on that old mahogany table.
It is mellow with age. but it looks
dull. Try washing it with pure
soap and warm water; then wipe it
dry and apply furniture polish. Go
over the wood several times, rubbing
in the polish thoroughly. The re-
suit will be complete revival Of the
heirloom.
In the living room you find fathers
comfortable oak chair, several pieces
of mahogany and willow chair al
sadly in need of paint. You mus
get off the old coat before you car
apply the new. Rub the wood even
ly with sand paper and pumice
stone.
When the natural wood is re-
duced, put on wood filled, and wher
this is dry, follow it with brown
mahogany or an oak stain, depend
inn ,,ror fba Micro Of wood
If your wood is close-grained, yol
will discover that it takes up les'
stain than open-grained wood, 81
choose your stain with this fact il
mind. Apply only one coat Of stall
at time.
Do not begin to apply the varnis1
until stain is perfectly dry. Put OF
the varnish, ore coat at time, rub
bling each coat down as it dries wit
a paste of powdered pumice stOn'
and water. When the finish /
smooth, apply the next coat
varnish. Do this three times. Tsat
final finish of mahogany or oak MAJ
be rubbed and left dull, or madt
bright, by using white shellac last o.
all.
If your shabby willow chair has
never been stained, go over it with
the shade that best suits the room.
When it is painted, begin on the part
first finished and rub it very softly
with a cotton cloth. Wipe off what
ever stain remains wet, then rub
harder on the outer surface to bring
out the gloss. To darken the furni-
ture you will need two or even three
coats Of stain.
If the chair has been stained,
paint it, giving it two coats. besides
the enamel finish.
When the fresh-looking furniture
has been put back in its old place.
you will happily decide that there is
no need to buy new pieces.

w ERE is a little coat set that

The coat is made from Spring

is left unlined, or else lined through
out with thin silk lining, just for
style. Under it is worn, however, a
quilted jacket, full length and with
sleeves. This makes the coat warm
enough for wear in cool weather.
Lots Of mothers follow this plan
with children's coats through a
whole Winter.
Now, the cunning little collar can
be made from contrasting silk or
even from the coat material if it is
not too heavy. The hat should be
covered to match. A secret is in
volved in that covering. Use a straw
foundation for that hat, covering it
with the silk and facing it with
georgette crepe. Then when the
crepe becomes soiled, it can be
ripped off and leave the little girl
with a silk hat faced with straw.
Speaking of the high cost of living,
isn't that economy? Make the coat of
some bright material. Youngsters
like bright colors and are wearing
them more than formerly. The
trimming on the hat is two luscious

But there are some other defects

naturally coarse and thick, but
thanks to exercise and research they

An excellent exercise for thick,

squad. The rink has been entirely
cleared of snow and two coats of top
Ice nave been put on making the sur
face fairly smooth. A few more thin
coatinss Of water will be added the
next few days and the rink will then
be in first class condition for the
game with Bowdoin on Saturday AFT
crnoon.
Captain Berry announced last night
that the same team which played
against Bates will start in the game
Saturday but there will be several
substitutions made to give the men
practice. The team will hold prac-
tice daily until the end of the week
in an effort to overcome the slarng
defects which showed up at Lewis
ton Saturday.
1t is expected that Vale, a veteran
OF last years seHtet. will be eligible
to play in a very short time. He will
prove great addition to the Blue
and Gray as he is fast man and
one of the cleverest performers that
Colby has on the ice. MCGOWAN.
another fast man playing his first
year will probably be shifted from
center ice to defense giving AIillett
and McBay a chance to alternate in
the center position.
Coach Marsh will keep the men
busy all week in ar effort to speed up
the offense and to give the defensive
men chance to practice keeping
their eye on the man with the puck.
