CARPET VS.. RUGS.
mrs. E. r. K, Washington
To the person who IS trying
to decide whether to carpet
her home or just to have rugs,
I say by all means carpet.
From personal experience and
from that Of friends. ! find
there is nothing so luxurious
and easy to care for.
AS for cleaning your carpet
professionally. you viii find
that 1t may cost you slightly
more to have this work done
in your home, considering the
additional charge for picking
up and laying a rug, but it
viii be just as effective. There
are also some very good prod
ucts on the market that you
can use yourself for cleaning.
I firmly disagree with the
reader who recommends rugs
to carpeting because Of the
possibility Of buffalo moths in
the latter. / have never heard
Of any one having such trouble
in a home, but only in hotel
and apartment Railways where
the carpeting was not cleaned
properly and often enough
around the edges.

With a great deal of pains he arranged a sun dial on the floor and then by com putting the angle at which the shadow fell he told the exact time.

often wonder why we have
to get in real emotional strain
before we really draw close to
Providence. 1t would seem that
such humbleness should be in the
greatest evidence when we are
without troubles and worry. And
maybe other people are affected
that way. But some how or an
other. it seems my greatest faith
comes when worldly problems
are at peak.
But out of all the scare and
Rusty's sickness came one bit of
humor. When we carried him to
the hospital for a thorough ex-
animation, he wanted to know if
that was the hospital that his
mother was going to soon. We
told him it was, and then he
made the classic statement, II
hope this is hospital that has
only little baby brothers. don't
want mommy going to hospitals
that has little baby sisters"

And then child-like, he just
