When Capitalites next walk into
the Mayfower Lounge this fall
they'll see a complete metamor-
phosis. Instead of Capital build
ings on walls of grey, they'll find
an elegant Georgian interior done
in shades of warm rose from the
light old rose of the walls which
will be covered with a boucle-like
material shot with gold, to the
deep, rich hue of the carpets.
Crystal scones for tapers will pro-
vide soft light from the sides
while an enormous crystal chan
delier eight feet wide will hang
IL feet from the dome of the
room.
The. entire west end of the
lounge, as well as the orchestra
platform, will be raised and in
closed in a white Georgian style
balustrade. A simulated window
formed by white period molding
and draped with antique taffeta
of deep rose will be on the wall
facing the entrance; a similarly
treated door" will center the
west end. From now on it's the
rose period and what with Capitol
Hill blastings maybe we could use
a little warmth.

DimethYl Thallate Is
Good Chigger Repellant

If you are bothered with chiggers
and most people have been this
summer - extension entomologists
suggest repellants containing di-
methyl thallate as the most effec-
tive.
This solution should be applied
around the tops of the stockings, or
in a band around the ankles. They
caution against indiscriminate use
because the chemical stains some
fabrics.
Once the chigger's got you, treat
ing the affected portions of the skin
with to 10 percent solution of ben
cocaine in alcohol is recommended
by T. H. Parks of Ohio State Uni
versity.
There is no positive method yet
devised for treating yards and lawns
to eliminate chiggers, but many peo-
pie have found busting the lawn
with powdered sulphur helps.
Parks suggests using the cheapest
grade of sulphur available, and ap-
plying it generously to the lawn with
dust gun.

Then one day Tony came home

change lying on the bureau. He
scooped up the money.
Hey" he said good naturally,

money lying on the bureau. It might
have blown away. Don't be so for

Leah smiled. ooh, myl" she said.

A week later Tony discovered a

dropped on the living room table and
forgotten.
Listen, honey, you've got to

'T'm sorry" said Leah, "but

precisely, give never lost a penny

How do you know" asked Tony,
a bit smugly.
Because, said Leah, Just a.
smugly, II can account for every
dime you've ever given me-"
Hal" said Tony. Lets see you'll"
So Leah got pencil and paper
and sat down and figured out her
expenditures, to the last penny.
WELL" said Tony, that doesn't
mean you won't lose some if you
continue to be careless. After it's
gone-well, you've heard the crack
about locking the barn door after
the horse has been stolen"
1--WE heard" said Leah icily, "a
lot of cracks"
CUDDENLY it occurred to Tony
~ that this was their first major
crisis. Somehow he'd have to break
Leah of her habit without a quar-
rel.
1t was the next Saturday noon
when he came home from work that
Tony discovered three ones and
f,r,N-IN11or hill
it had been absently dropped by
Leah while she rescued the roast
from burning. Furtively Tony
scooped up the money and stuck it
in his pants pocket. Sooner or later
Leah would discover it was missing.
She'd become concerned. She'd ask
him to help hunt. He'd make a pre-
tense of hunting and then pretend
to find the money where it had
blown into the bathroom.
That afternoon Tony went
playing golf. All the while he
was gone, while he was in the
locker room and on the course
and later in the showers, he
kept thinking of Leah hunting
for the missing money.
He came home an hour earlier
than he had planned. The moment
he saw Leah's face he knew she had
discovered the loss.
Darling, laid some money on
the bureau. Have you seen it?"
''It must have blown off," said
Tony. boy, I hope we can find it."
His face wore look of grave con-
Germ as he began hunting. I'VE
can't afford to lose a cent" he kept
saying.
Tony waited until Leah looked as
though she were on the point of
bursting into tears, remembering
she had been saving for a new hat
and knowing she couldn't have it
unless they found the money. Then
he ambled into the bathroom, and,
chuckling to himself, reached into
his pocket.
A startled look came to his face.
He reached into his other pockets.
They were all empty.
