ny THE COUNSELLOR.

In his will Henry Bell directed that,
after the payment of his debts. all of
his real estate was to go to his nephew.
ToL1. and all of his personal property
to his other nephew. Albert. The real
estate consisted of two properties.
there was $4,000 mortgage on them.
The personal property consisted of 81
900 in a savings bank.
Tom felt aggrieved over the fact
that his share of the estate was 50
much laller than Albert.
He examined the will. studied the
clause relt. ing to the payment of debts
and concluded that as the mortgage
was one of Bells debts, it should be
paid out of the personal estate, as the
other open debts were. He made de-
mand upon the executor to pay the
So 900 mortgage on. of the bank funds.
Albert resisted his demand. claiming
that as Tom was given the real estate,
he took it subject to any lien thereon.
The dispute was aired in ccIr!, and
Tom, the dev!see of the re:5 estate.
won his case. FOR ihe court stated:
"It is the general rule that tina per-
Sonal assets of the decedent are sub
ject to the payment of his debts. be-
fore recourse can be had to his real
estate. Hence, as between the devisee
of real estate charged with mortgage
executed by the deceased, and the
beneficiary of the personal estate. the
latter L. charged with the payment of
the mortgage in eXoneration of the
real estate. This rule prevails in abb

Women At Home Can Steam
Velvet Clothes Satisfactorily

We have all been a little spoiled by
recent fashions. Thirty years ago
women took it for granted that If
they had no maid to attend to such
details they must spend a good deal
OF time simply taking care of their
clothes. Clothes required so mucn
attention. Long pleated skirts of the
old sort had to be elabOrately pressed
after every three or four wearings.
Separate washable collars and cuffs
had to be washed. ironed and sewed
into position. Once there were neck
ruchings that had to be ripped out
of collars after every one or two wear
ings. New ones had to be carefully
sewed in place. Women took it fot
granted that the price of good dress
ing was the expenditure of much
patient pressing, sewing and tuSsln3.
The new order of things came in
with the war. Removable collars ana
cuffs, ruchings, jabots and the other
little neck and wrist fixings went out
of fashion. Processes were devised TO
make pleats that really stayed In
place. Short skirts, short hair, per
manent waves. liquid nail polish--aIl
these things shortened the time that
women had to spend on themselves
and their clothes.
So, as I say. we were all beautifully
spoiled Not having to spend so much
time fussing, we wanted to spend even
less. We got the taste of freedom from
all this tiresome puttering.
And now it seems as il clothes that
require more attention are coming
into fashion. But you can't have your
cake and eat it, too. If you want TO
wear these new. more elaborate
clothes you must not expect to be free
from the task of keeping them in con-
dition.
Velvet requires considerable atten-
tion-more attention than georgette.
which somehow manages TO take care
OF Itself.
But there are short cuts even in the
care of velvet.
AS you know. velvet must not be
!roned. 1t must be steamed. and the
shortest way to do this is to give It
a steam bath in the bathroom. Here
is the way one woman goes about u:
She hangs her velvet frock on a pad
ded hanger in the bathroom, closes
the windows and doors and turns the
hot water on in the tub. until the
bathroom gets so steamy that the mir
ror is fairly covered with it. Having
filled the tub with very hot water and

half hour or more.
Then the door is opened and the
frock Is allowed gradually to dry off.
When the frock is fairly free from
steam. but still not bone dry. she
brushes it with very fine velvet
brush. used only for velvet. It is al
lowed to dry thoroughly before being
put away and must be pulled down
into shape from time 10 time to pre-
vent wrinkling. 1t is then given a
final dry brushing and is put away
with a muslin cover to keep out pos
sible notes OF dust
Wooden materials should. Of course
have frequent DRESSINGS. The best
way to do this is to use a fairly hot
iron with a moistened cloth between
the iron and the material You should
have special cloths for this purpose

Ths wsr to keep a child happy, sat
isfiec and out Of mischief is to give
him soIrsthing to do. The constant
pla.ft, What shall l do?" is the de-
SPAR of most mothers. who know
that lacking some interest at home.
Johnny will run wherever there is eX-
citement, and Mary ditto.
One reason that farms and subur-
ban homes are ideal for children is
the greater space and natural play
apparatus they offer. The city homes.
which are growing progressively more
compact, offer real problems for the
parent who realizes that children
must have things to play with as well
as leisure to play. Most children do
have enough toys to help them gain
mastery of hand and eye. Little girls
can always find the equipment for
sewing doll rags" and cutting paper
dolls. Far too often they are salts
fled with these activities. But not SO
the small boy. He yearns to run and
jump and swing. His muscles need
these exercises. and even the 2-year-
old is easier to handle if his mother
is aware Of these perfectly natural
needs and provides opportunities for
their exercise. Walking and running
won't keep the mentally alert child
interested. as mothers who have had
to resort TO nursery schools have dis
covered.
Give the small boy or girl a sand
pile. however small.
If there is room for even small
pile, provide a pen to go around it.
Sand which is piled on the lawn is
bound to become mixed with the sur
rounding grass, leaves, twigs and
whatnot which collects on a lawn,
and. besides being dirtier. loses its

L usefulness. fo: this kind Of sand Won
pack well and build the intricate man
sions and landscapes which are SO
thriilinsly interesting to their small
architects Put the sand pile in a
sheltered place, but where It Will get
some sunlight during the day. Incl
dcntally this is one way OF keeping
the baby interested While he gets his
sun bath.
Barring a sand pile. the swing is
about the simplest play apparatus Tor
a parent 10 build. 1t needs only the
limb OF a stout tree or projecting
bar. a good smooth rope and seat
in which the rope slips through two
holes These are better than the v
shaped hicks. for seats of this type
are always dumping their occupants
on the ground.
Perhaps there are parents who long
to give their children all the play
equipment which will make them
happy. but don't know just what form
that equipment should take. Here is
q list of some of the things which
would bring JOY to the heart of any
girl or boy and keep all the neighbors
kids simply nailed to the yard.
Flying rings, horizontal bars, lad
ders, teeter boards. combination rings
and swings, bird baths Ito encourage
nature study. and house for the
pet dog, bunny or chicken.
1t would he wonderful if all children
could have all of these toys. 1t is i'm
perative that they have some. If the
father makes them himself the cost
IS not prohibitive. If a choice must
be made. choose those which give the
most lasting entertainment 1--WE would
suggest the sand pile, bars and rings
for the smallest sum and usable in
the smallest spaced.

A white cloth kept spotlessly clean to
use on light-colored materials and a
black or dark-colored cotton cloth to
use on dark materials. The reason for
this is that particles of lint from the
dark cloth will not show in the dark
material as would lint from the white
cloth. The best way to dampen the
pressing cloth is TO wiring it as dry as
possible out of hot water and then
shake il in the air to remove any sur.
face moisture.

great a difference in masculine ana

cences or essays--that any one ought
to like. or pieces of fine bric-a -brac
that even a bachelor would like. boxes
of fine bonbons. desk acceSsorles-
things OF that sort.
But most of us find it easier to get
special mems prizes for the bridge
party where half the guests are men.
And we usually take it for granted
that all men are smokers and that
thew have place and use for an lndell-
mite number of cigarette holders, ASH
receivers. ash trays and match boxes.
Books. too. are always safe choice

ally avoid this difficulty by having the
man with the highest score choose.

DETROIT, Oct. 8.--Harry He'll
mann, smuggling outfielder OF the
Detroit Tigers, probably is I1aseball's
most noted 'in.and-outer." Starting
in 1921. he has won the American
League batting championship every
other year.
Heilmann won the 1927 crown
with a mark OF 1895, nosing out AL
Simmons Of the Athletics by four
points, but it took some terrific
hitting yesterday to accomplish the
feat. In nine times at bat against
the Cleveland pitchers, Heilmann
pounded out seven hits, Including
two home runs and two doubles.
