The more I study the matter the

PreJudices such as the one based on
the notion that goats are malodorouS

malodorous than are cows.
A goat requires less feed than a COW

two to four quarts of the purest and

suburban, village and small-town

AN ARTISTIC GROUPING OF SMALL PRINTS.

TIME expression that in decora-
ton there is a golden mean
between clutter and barrenness"
Il should be remembered by the
home decorator. Nothing is
more disturbing to the nerves, from a
decorative standpoint, than cluttered
rooms. This may not be the disar-
rangement Of furniture and things
scattered about carelesSly by persons
who have been in the room. 1t may
result from too many articles, which in
themselves may be BEAUTIFUL, but
which, by the very number of them,
create confused mental sensation.
If ons has small quarters. having
been accustomed to larger ones, it cer-
tainly Is difficult to make selections
of articles to exactly suit the new
rooms, and yet have about cne the
choice and cherished things. One
solution Is suggested to avoid the re-
sulting clutter, and that is to have a
succession Of different things about
each containing enough for an attrac-
tive efecty Put away Cne group Of ar
ticles such as vases, bowls, and all
sorts of ornaments, when another is
put out. In this way one is not sep
arated from choice things but has
them about in rotation. Diversity in
decorative effects is also gained.
Another suggestion to prevent clut-
ter is to group articles together so that
the eye concentrates on them collec-
lively in an appreciative way, without
diffusion. For example it may be that
one has several pieces Of cloisonne If
these are grouped, an artistic picture is
presented. Many pieces can be to-
gether and the attention is focused.

milk contains a larger proportion of

According to bulletin (No. 920)

cows milk Is acid. That is not quite
correct as to cows milk; cows milk is
alkaline and only becomes acid as it

However, goats milk is slightly su-

small size chicken stuffed with chestnut
filling? he said.
cant think of anything less simple.

little chicken requires the same pro-
ceedure as big chicken, so that's all a
