The UntidY Room.

Children are rarely born with the
gift of neatneSs and order. They like
10 live in an atmosphere of orderlineSs
but they do not know how to achieve
1t. That must be trained into them and
it Is one of the most difficult things TO
instill If the child has grown to Adde'S
cence without having been trained TO It..
One must begin early.
Susan was in high school and had not
learned TO leave her room In order
when she left 1t In the morning.
Everything she had used was lying
somewhere about the room. The bureau
drawers were oil wide open, their con-
tents scattered and trailing about. The
bed was heaped with clothes. The floor
was Uttered with shoes and slippers
and stockings. Patiently mother or the
maid gathered them up daily. put the
room in order and hoped that Susan
would learn.
"Oh, there's no time in the morning.
I'm In such hurry. II miss my car
I'm late for school Don't bother about
it. Just let 1t go. III attend to 1t when
I get time
But She never got time. II her
mother had not gathered up the eve
ming costume that Susan dropped where
she stepped out OF 1t the evening before,
it would have stayed there for all time.
as far as any one could see,
One day mother did not feel very

dizzy to stoop over. She gave one look
at SusanS room and groaned. 1t was

very much In earnest. Susan went up
to her untidy room. She came back
again weeping Mary. my room hasn't

A Sermon for Today
Go On Doing Your Best.

Text. And let us not be weary in
welldoing. for in due season we shall
reap, If we fat not."-~Gal.. vie.
This text has sometimes been mis-
interpreted. making 1t equivalent to the
old saying, Let we'll enough alone"
There is a sense in which at times we
should be content to let well enough
alone. but that is not the thought Paul
has in mind here. What he means is,
If We are doing well. we should not be-
come weary or discouraged, but with.
tireless persistence keep on with our
well-doing. For says he, lin due
season we shall reap, if we faint not
Conditions may sometimes be very
disheartening. Results may not &C
cumulate as fast as we wish But we
should remember there is no royal road
to any given goal in life. We should
realize this and never give up. although
at times the road may be steep and
rugged. If we so on with our well-do-
ing, never firing, never fainting, in due
time the goal will be reached and the
prize won.
This is lesson we all sometimes
need. Even the most determined Of us
are sometimes disposed to become weary
Of our work and disheartened over the
affairs in which We are concerned. We
strive earnestly enough, but at times
We feel that we are not getting any,
where or doing much good We wonder
whether 1t Is worth while to keep on.
Whenever such feeling comes over
us there is no more fitting word we
could say to ourselves than this reas-
surfing and heartening word of the
apostle Paul: let us not be weary in
well-doing. for in due season We shall
reap, If we faint not" If you ever feel
like giving up. let this word encourage
you to go on doing your best.

Cotton and Linen i'm the Fashions
BY MARY MARSHALL.

| sort this Summer you are sure to see
ever SO many cotton and linen frocks'
| however, and there are occasions when
no silk materials can possibly seem 50
smart. The sketch shows a new sum
mer suit OF white pique, lined with
printed linen, chosen for resort wear by
woman Of fashion who has done
much In her own set to popularize the
new cottons and linens.
Turkish toweling is used a great deal
In the making of beach wraps and other
accessories this Summer. and 1t is
called Turkish toweling and not Terry
cloth or sponge, as 1t was IN otiler SEA "a
sons. A beach coat that l saw the
other day was made in knee length in
box cut of Turkish toweling showing a
white ground with polka dots as large
as base balls.
Sometimes YOU know. there are beach
rugs of the Turkish toweling to match
the beach coat, and as long as they are
considered such smart accessory this
season, I think that every one who is
planning to spend part of the Summer
at the shore ought to possess one. They
dry so much easily than wooden rugs
and, being thick and porous. keep out
the dampness and sand quite as well.
They are made as large as a steamer
rug and are sometimes edged or deco
rated with cutouts of oilcloth. But this
isn't necessary. of course, and like
them better without this decoration,
Witch isn't comfortable to lie on.
If YOU have a little girl or are one of
the enterprising young grandmothers
who make pretty things for your grand
daughters. l think you will want this

Hair Becoming Dark.

One of the beauty questions that Is
asked me time and time again is in re-
gard to hair that Is turning brown.
Naturally, those who have golden
hair during childhood want to keep
it fair as they grow older. This,
however, is not possible always with
out resort to a bleach. But bleach
ing is an unsatisfactory solution to
the problem, because the hair con-
tinues growing in dark at the roots
and must be touched up there again
and again. Besides this disadvantage,
the bleach If used strong will make
the hair brittle and dull in time.
During the teens or earlier many
fair haired girls begin noticing that
their hair is turning ashen blond or
brown. There is nothing known to
beauty culturists that can successfully
and harmlessly check this natural de-
velopment
On the other hand, there are girls
and women who are true blondes and
