SUGGESTIONS THAT
ARE USEFUL FOR
ALL HOME MAKERS


Turn on your electric fan in the
laundry the next rainy wash day
and see how big help it is in the
drying of clothes.
Put the soiled overalls flat on
thc board of side of tub and scrub
with stiff scrubbing brush. You
will find it the easiest way to clean
these bulky articles.
Black glass vases and bowl are
very fashionable at present, and
one woman tells me she gave a
clear glass vase of hers a coat OF
black enamel and it turned oul
beautifully and is much admired.
Be certain that the fish YOU buy
is strictly fresh. Your nose Is
probably your best barometer IN
this. for the fish store having an
unsavory odor,, is bound TO contain
something creating that 1tnlos'
phere. and just on general pflnei-
pies should be avoided. The mod
ern fish store is spotlees and odor-
less.

BALTIMORE RENTS DROP
IN APARTMENT HOUSES
Many Vacant Flats in New Build
ings One Reason for De-
cline Reported.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, September 20.-While
the owners Of some apartment houses
have not reduced their rents, a def
mite downward tendency in the rents
of apartments has appeared In Balti-
more.
A representative of one big agency
says that his company had reduced
rents $3.50 to $500 a month on apart
ments renting from SIS to $50 a month.
Another large rental agency says
that rents for apartments in con-
verted houses are down about 10
per cent.
One reason for the decline in Balti-
more is said to be the fact that
there are large numbers of vacant
apartments in newly constructed
houses.
Real estate men say there has not
been a corresponding lowering of the
rents of dwellings. They believe this
Is explained in part by the fact that
the builders who erect two-sto ory
dwellings try to sell them rather than
rent them. The building of the three
story dwelling has been almost
abandoned in Baltimore, especially
the three story brick dwelling. Some
real estate men say that a two-story
porch front house in an ordinarily
good street will rent from $50 to S65
a month, which is almost as high as
the peak figures during the war.
Such a house. they say, sells for
