A SURE CURE FOR ANTS.

It seems that n number Of Is
land people have profited by a
very simple method Of extermlnat-
ing ants at the suggestion Of II.
Morgan, and although delighted
with the results failed TO spread
the good tidings around. Ants are
n common nuisance here, and
many housekeepers will welcome a
never-failing method Of Kidding
the house Of them. ?
Take three-quarters Of tea
spoonful Of sugar and one-fourth
teaspoonful of borax. Moisten this
with q little water, enough TO
make thick syrup. In short
time the insects will be seen eat
ing greedily, but in a few minutes,
when the borax begins to affect
them they will be seen hurrying
away, and in a few hours, Mr,
Morgan says, there will be no
traces of them.
Many who have tried dry borax
have found 1t to be failure, but
with the syrup method the ants
will be attracted by the sugar, and
thus eat the borax.
This syrup should not be used
out of doors, as honey bees will
eat 1t as readily as ants and be
killed by 1t.

WELL CARED-FoR METALS
CONTRIBUTES TO HOME LIFE

Washington State College, Pullman
well cared for metals have con-
tribution to make to home life. Well
polished silver, copper that CLOVIS with
satiny lustre, and brass that shines
until II becomes veritable mirror, all
tell the story Of an appreciation for
beauty, sense of orderliness. and
high standard of cleanliness" says
Stella May Haywood OF the State Col
lege home economies faculty,
For cleaning silver, Miss Haywood
recommends paste made Of whiting
and water or whiting with a solvent
such as alcohol or household ammonia.
This mixture, she states, is just as ef-
fectiye and far less costly than COM
mercial silver polish. Another method
that may be used to advantage in the
cleaning Of large quantities of silver
is to place the silver In an old alumni
mum pan and cover well with boiling
water, to which n teaspoon of salt and
teaspoon of soda have been added.
Boil the silver for from three to five
minutes, remove from the kettle, rinse,
and dry.
To clean copper and brass, moisten
cloth in little vinegar and rub the
article thoroughly. Then rinse the
metal in hot water and dry with a
clean, soft cloth. This method is best
for brass. For the copper, paste
made of rottenstone and sweet oil
gives rich, soft, satiny lustre to the
metal.
Nickel-plated articles may be clean
ed with plain soap and water, says the
home economics expert. Whiting Is
best for pewter because 1t will not
scratch the rather soft surface. Dark
stained aluminium pans may be clean
ed by boiling little vinegar in the
pan.

Furs Are Long
Or Short

Some of the jackets on the
dressmaker suits that close
in a surplice line take belt,
while others do not. Often
the neckline is collarless,
and the sleeves three-quarter
length and open, somewhat
reminiscent of the suits Of
the Pink Lady" era. Again
this type suit takes revers Of
flat fur, such as soft galyac
or kid. Occasionally sui is
have detachable fur scarfs,
worn for the first cold
weather, and laid aside later,
or perhaps by a lighter silk
scarf. Soft suits that close
down the front sometimes
h ave short little shoulder
capelets. The newest of these
are just over the arms, not
across the back at all, and
to be smart, they must be
quite short, never down as
far as the elbow. Revers of
the material may also appear
on this type suit, or scarf

Soldier Suits

The military suits we have
this year are descendants
Of the wooden soldier coat
and suit of last fall, or Ma
poleon s uniform coats, of
our own American Revolu-
tion uniforms, Of mess jack
cts, of sailor REFERS, and of
various other militant gar
ments. One thing they all
have in common is an alert,
spirited look, which we all
find captivating this year.
A few even have a bit of a
cape like a cadet s uniform.
Nearly all have a high clos
ing, which may be rolled
down for a softer line.
Scarfs are often worn with
these military suits, either
the Ascot type that loops
inside the coat, or a little
short scarf looped to the side
of the neck. The suits are
always made of rather
simple fabrics, and the
closer it resembles uniform
cloth, the better.

The aiIor Has a lob

Revers and lapels are in.
variably wider on tailored
suits this year. Some of them
touch or cross the sleeve
seams, so dashing are they.
The jacket is always fitted,
nipping in as close to the
waist as possible, and most
suits have a belt that may or
may not he. worn, Sleeves on
suits of this type and also
on more military suits, are
always full length, and quite
simple, to be in keeping with
the tailored aspect of the
suit. Single and double
breasted coats seem to be
equally popular, and h e
usual buttons are sometimes
replaced by clips especially
on SchiapareIli suits. Man
nish worsteds are used for

Suits Are Versatile

Another good reason why
suits are popular is that
they meet so we'll the de-
mand for economy without
sacrifice to fashion. They
are not a luxury, and an
addition to the wardrobe as
some people think them, be-
cause they can be worn for
SO many occasions. Now

Spring comes to Washing

What About Fabrics?

Fabrics for suits are
pretty much the same as
those used in coats, except
that for suits we find cloth
of a corded finish, others
rather tweed like, and of
course the polo types are
confined to coats alone. The
same crepey weaves are
used in dressmaker suits
that we find in coats. Di-
agonals too are equally
popular in both. Rough
corded woolens are equally
smart in suits and coats,
though rough tweeds are
used for mannish suits,
