potato is tender. Potatoes absorb

The.Child's Room

Adults plan and build houses,
and usually build them for adults.
Perhaps there is some excuse for
this, since houses last for gener-
ations, and the child is so soon
out Of childhood and gone. With
out changing the architecture of
the house, however, the ingenius
mother can devise a room which
will be fitted to the needs and de-
light of her children.
The first requirement of a
child's room is light and air. The
windows should be made to open
fully; like doors, and the child in
this room can easily imagine that
he is in the open. 1t will do no
harm to humor the children's i'm
agination. The lad who leads
armies in his imagination, will be
a leader of men, and the lassie
with fairies will have an eye for
the silver lining Of life.
Choose a wall paper border or
frescoe with Mother Goose pic
lures or knights and princesses on
it. Hang no glass curtains to the
window to shut out the view, but
only gay side draperies to relieve
the barrenness. Furnish the room
with some built-in furniture if
Dad has to make it himself out of
dry-goods boxes. The whole fam
lily will enjoy the inventiveness.
The furniture should be child
height. The dresser or book cup
board might be painted to simu-
late a house. Have window seat
the proper height for a child, and
a rod in the closet so low that he
may hang his own belongings On
it. If.you outfit the closet with
plenty Of drawers and wall
pocket on the door, the room will
be much more likely to be kept in
order. A place for everything is
the first requisite of everything
in las place. The color scheme
should be cheerful but not garish;
and there should be a certain dig
nifty and simplicity about the
room with not too much ginger
bread to keep tidy or to cultivate
false tastes.

woody rug before the bed to kneel

Fashions, Fads, Foibles

This is a glove season. Milady
no longer goes about bare-handed.
Gloves are of fabric and may be
easily washed and kept clean.
Gloves, wrinkling at the wrist, are
worn with short sleeves, and
gloves only slightly longer are for
formal wear.
Al new fashion note is the
sleeve, close-fitting at top and
forearm, but with a generous puff
at the elbow.
You don't have to wear a freak
ish hat. After the first flush of
fashion is over, comes a sober,
second thought, as to hats, and
there are many sensible and fash
ionable ones offered for those who
are a bit more conservative.
The scarf collar, looped over
high at the throat, marks the new
season. Light weight wooden
dresses will share the honors with
satins, crepes and chiffons. Dark
shades are livened by trimmings
in contrasting colors.
Tiny bows of colors to match
the gown makes one pair of slip
pers ego" with several dressy
dresses-if you happen to have
the dresses. The bows are clipped
onto the slippers and may be re-
moved in a jiffy. They make the
feet look smaller; not a bad idea,
at that.

Wash and stem ten pounds of
grapes and put to cook in a gran
lite kettle, adding one cup of wa
ter. Cook slowly until pulp and
skins separate, then strain juice
through a fruit press, sieve or a
jelly bag. To the juiecice add
three pounds of sugar; heat to the
boiling point and seal in sterilized
bottles or cans. If you use bot
ties with corks, dip the top into
hot sealing wax so that top and
cork are well covered. This recipe
should make one gallon of grape
juice, which may be adulterated
if desired.

Children should eat sweets only
at the end of a meal, because SUI
gar is a very concentrated food
which the body uses for fuel only.
Because it is soon concentrated,
and so quickly utilized by the
body, sugar dulls the appetite. If
child is allowed to eat candy
before he sits down to dinner, he
has no appetite for the other
foods he needs to build his body
and keep it in good running or
der. After he has eaten the re-
quired amount of other food, a
child may have a piece of candy,
a few dates or figs, a plain cooky,
or piece of cake or dessert.

PRAIRIE DOG SEEN
IN GRIM FRAY WITH
LARGE RATTLESNAkE

Bozeman, Mont, Nov. 1.-THE
theory that a rattlesnake and a
prairie dog live together harmon
iously has been known to be false
for some time and from w. F.
Hardin of Malta comes the infor-
nation that the two animals will,
on occasion, fight desperately.
Hardin, as foreman of prairie
dog poisoning crew was attracted
by the peculiar action of a dog.
Curious as to the reason, he ap-
preached quietly and saw priar-
lie dog trying to dislodge a rattle
snake that had enseonced himself
in a particularly high mound.
Neither animal paid the slightest
attention to Hardin and silently
struggled for supremacy. The dog,
very much alive to the menace of
the snakes fangs, approached the
mound cautiously until fairly close
to his enemy. Then he darted for
ward and as the snake struck,
sprang into the air to fall back
just out of reach. The actions of
the two were lightning like in
speed and Hardin could not see
whether the snake sunk in his
fangs at each attack. Blood on
the prairie dogs chest showed
however that at least few of the
deadly strikes had reached home.
AS Hardin watched the battle
he saw that the snake was coiled
in such a position that the prair-
lie dog could approach only from
the front. Each time as the dog
darted in, the snake struck, then
coiled quickly and before the dog
could approach from the only open
entrance, the snake was ready and
waiting. AS Hardin's sympathies
went out to the dog, he was on the
point of stopping the unequal fight
when the coming of his men broke
it up. A very sick dog was allow
ed to crawl into nearby hole un-
molested. Hardin said the snake
was apparently uninjured. The
crew shared his sympathy for the
valiant little dog.
