Household Hints

II children are early taught TO put
away their p~laythings when they
are through with them. they never
think OF il as a task; II becomes as
natural for them to he tidy as care
less in this matter. The same holds
true Of their clothes. This habit es-
tablished in youth will save many
footsteps for mother ard will be an
asset for the adult. Many a domestic
quarrel has arisen over the trivial
matter OF a husbands coat flung
carelesslv over the back Of a living
room chair.
A curtain that does not hang
straight car mar the charm OF an
entire room. Ii looks untidy. and
inartistic. But a curtain will always
hang straight n the selvedge Is cut
off and a narrow hem sewn on in its
stead.

would not allow him to make such
