By HELEN KENDALL THE BED O DREAMS

Aren't they doing the ioveliest things to beds nowadays ?-dressing them up in flounccs and frills ant draping them in soft silks and dotted swiss oVercolor, with putty rolls or embroidered strips to conceal the prosaic white pillows, and darning them with French knots, appliqued baskets of poSies, monographs and dear knows what not!
 They suggest pleasant dreams in deed-these gracious modern beds. not only the beds of which we have dreamed, but those in which We may dream contentedly. How different they are from the hard boiled, cold, white eXpanses of spread" O. coun- terpane, headed by two big square pill lows tmussed hopelessly after the first nights use). which all of us used to use not so many years ago Even the stiff, plain "shams" which useG to be suspended over the pillow S could not make those old beds any thing but severe and uninviting.
 The other day l was shown a bed room which was a heavenly blur of soft French blue and pale violet Tine twin four-poster beds were covered with puffed and pinked covers of French blue silk with silver change able sheen in 1t. The outings, which ran around the outside edge of the bed, were of pale violet or lilac silk and similar puffings ran in soft scal- : lops around the bottom of the val ance, below which was scalloped ruffle of the blue silk finished with q pinking iron. The blue silk roll case for the pillows had fulled ends of the violet silk, drawn tightly to the cen- ter, where blue silk button was at- tached with q deep spider-web stitch
 At the little diamond paned case ment windows hung side draperies of the blue silk, with a puffing of the violet across the top. and violet or gandy of the sheerest quality was hung over the sash itself. On the floor lay braided rug with a French blue center and bands of vio- let around the oval edges.
 But 1t was the beds themselves to which the delighted eye returned They looked so impractical and fairy tale as if one would be s-~c,ited away to enchanted regions the mo- ment one dropped into them. Yet be- meath the sky-soft covers were 1prac- tical, cool white sheets and pillows of yield ing plumpness, for We are learning that beauty is not incom patible with comfort

 use now. You will not feel like fuss ing with it when the days get warmer.
 If no regular dust brush is avail able use q paint brush to remove all dust. Make soapsuds with tepid water and a good white soap. and add generous pinch of salt. Wash the chairs we'll. using a flannel cloth---a nail brush will do for the especially soiled parts of the crevices that can not be reached with the cloth. Rinse with clear water and dry well.
 Whether the chairs are of willow, rattan or the straw basket work. an oil wash is advisable. It not only gives polish, but it prolongs the usefulness of the furniture by keep ing the reeds or strands pliable, thereby preventing. breaks in these. It also obviates that annoying, crack ling sound so often experienced when sitting on porch chairs. So the oiling seems quite worth while.
 After the furniture has been cleaned and is thoroughly dry, give 1t one or two coats of oil stain and follow this with coat of raw lin seed oil. If the furiture is in the natural light color. use only the lin seed oil as the oil stain will give improvement in the opinion of most housekeepers. Use a stiff round paint brush to apply the oil and press it well between the strands.
 It Is well to apply coat of linseed oil even to new rattan furniture. A furniture dealer asserts that this pre- caution, together with the regular spring cleaning and oiling each year will double the length of wear of this furniture. He also suggests cushions as a protection to chairs of this class. He says "even thin pad to fit the seats will help greatly to making the chair last longer"

BEAUTY AND HEALTH

 T. S.-You are considerably over weight. A woman of twenty weight. weight. woman of 24, standing D feet , inches, should not weigh over 110 pounds. An additional 10 pounds may be added without detriment to your health and appearance, all though you would then be too heavy

 Mrs. L. J.-I have known local fat to be successfully treated with a re- ducing cream. Some of these reme- dies are quite worthless, others are good when faithfully applied.
 S. Koster-Thick lips can be re- duced somewhat by means of astrin- gent lotions and creams. My advice is to leave them severely alone. Give the utmost care to the hygiene of your mouth and teeth, also cultivate a pleasing expression of your entire face, especially of your eyes, thus calling attention away from the lips.
 MarJOrle-The. premature SlSnS os age you describe can all be over come if you build up your system VI ith an iron tonic in powder form, practise breathing. exercises at an open window with clock like regu- larity and at the same time treat your gray hairs and the lines on your face with suitable remedies.
 May T-Yes, water when con- sumed in large quantities, Is fatten- ing. Take no liquids at meal times. Two glassfuls of water on arising and on retiring, one two hours after breakfast and luncheon, both meals very light, will give you the amount of water you want and still keep your weight down. Pimples cannot be got rid of as easily as you seem to think For an occasional single eruption, carbolized zinc ointment Is as good as anything.
 Marile-Now is indeed the time to bleach out the skin. You will find this an excellent mild bleach for discolored neck or for slight dis coiorations of the skin on the face and hands: BoraX, l dram; lemon juice( drams; bay rum, ounces; rosewater, ounces. Daub on fre- Quently with absorbent cotton.

 No. indeed, it won't" Grinny Bear said, II think 1t is nice for the Wig gysnoop and the Snoopwiggy to have the bicycles. And I am very happy that the Raggedys have given them to yod,'

 Turning slightly in her chair, she watched him as he returned to the table he had just left and paused to speak to q we'll dressed woman who stood up while he threw her light wrap about her shoulders. Then the pair left the veranda by the front entrance.
 Richard Rankin had arisen at Don aids approach. Now he seated him self again.
 "so Muir has his car here.' he re- marked.
 Winifred started from her reverie "fes-l suppose he has. of course. l know he has a roadster-a very good one, I've heard him say. 1 have never ridden in it," she added as if to herself.
 It had suddenly occurred to her that Donald might have asked her to come with him to place like this. Who was his companion? She had not thought of her guardian as a 1ady's man. Yet-he was here with a fashionably dressed woman.
 What is MT. Muirs business?" Richard was asking.
 Again she drew her attention from Donald to Rankin.
 Real estate" she briefly replied. "The good-looking woman with him may be one Of hlS clients, the young man opined
 He was watching her closely and She was conscious that he was, all though she did not know why this consciousness made her vaguely un- comfortable. Could he suppose for moment that she cared who Donald had with him?
 "Yes. she may be a client, or just a friend of his" she said, with little shrug. She is just about his age, isn't she? I meant. she is not very young. anyway"
 No Richard agreed. 'I should say that she was at least 35 or 40." (Which is just about MT. Muir's age" the girl observed Here is our waiter Won't you have another French pastry?"

 "Ccrtainly I will" she agreed.
 But although she selected a delect- able-looking stra wberry tart. she only tasted it. Her appetite had de- parted suddenly. She supposed 1t was because she already had eaten so much.

TIMBER GIVEN AWAY
TO IMPROVE FORESTS

OGDEN. - Nearly two million
board feet of timber from the ma
tional forest of Nevada valued at
about $4,000, was given away to
nearly 500 persons in 1921 according
to Districe Forester r. H. Rutledge.
District Forester X. H. Rutledge.
These figures show slight increase
both as to amount and number OF
users, from the previous year.
This material consists of dead,
diseased and insect infested tim
Der and small trees removed In
Trimmings, which have little CONNER
cial value and would be practically
impossible to sell. The forest ser
vice gets well paid. however, through
the benefits secured by the removal
of this class of material in checking
insect attacks and the spread Of
disease, as we'll as in getting rid Of
large quantities of dead wood which
forms a dangerous fire hazard as
long as it remains in the forest.
The removal of small material in
Trimmings allows the remaining trees
to grow very much more rapidly
and to develope into commercially
valuable timber in fraction of the
time that would otherwise be re-
quired.
Material taken under free use'
consists chiefly of fuel wood, posts
and poles used on ranches adjacent
to the national forests.

Sheriff w. H. Thomas, who left here
a week ago on official business in
the Duckwater district. Since his
departure the eastern area of Nye

in continuous succession. The fact
that the sheriff is overdue at his
office is not surprising for the rea-
son that it is simply a physical i'm
possibility for any vehicle to make
Roadway against the drifts that are
more treacherous than the flowing
sands of Death valley. Duckwater
is out of touch with the rest of the
world and, when road communica-
ton is blocked the valley is ma

Don Levers is confident that his chief

are broken as he is too old desert

FURTHER REVISION
To VOTING LAW
IS OFFERED

CARSON. - Three more bills

election laws were introduced in the
senate by Miller of Mineral, by re-
quest. 1t is the election committees

simultaneous consideration and to
evolve from them, if necessary, one

changes.
Two of the three bills intro
duced affect the qualification of
absent voters. One of them pro-
vides that registration cards of all
voters who invoke the absent voter
ballot shall be cancelled Immediately
after every general election.
The other prescribes an oath to
be taken by any applicant for an
absent voter ballot before such bal

The third bill introduced by Sena-
or Miller contains the provision
hat any political party may be per-
oetuated as such if the vote cast
for its representatives in congress
vas one per cent of the total. 1t
also provides that any organization
of electors, under common name
or designation, shall file with the
secretary of state a petition signed
by at least twenty-five qualified
electors declaring that they repre-
sent political party or principle
the name of which shall be stated,
and that they desire to participate
and nominate officers by primary.

1.-THE BAT" BREAKING ALL
THEATRICAL RECORDS

"The Bat" now playing its sec
ond long engagement at the Curran
theatre, San Francisco, recorded
gross receipts Of more than $a'oVo
at one performance during the
week. This is more money tnan
has ever been taken in at the
theatre for one evening since 1t was
built more than twenty years ago.
Members of the company, ap-
bearing in "The Bat" at Boston,
undoubtedly hold one record that
may never again be equalled' by
American actors. Not only nave
they appeared in the play more than
LOO consecutive times but they
have played to more than $3,ooo,-
600 in money since the night they
opened.
By the end of the present theatri-
cal season, it is now probable .ihe
Bait will have been presented IN at
least IL different nations and Will
have been played in at least SIX
languages.
