When soiled spots appear on painted walls ,the only satisfactory way to remove them is to wash the entire painted area. Attempts to clean the spots individually will leave rings. Also. lt is well to clean the wall before repainting. as grease. soot, lint. dust and cobwebs should be removed. Here is s. good cleaning compound for washing the painted surfaces:

THE KING'S HOUSE

It must surely be the. wonder- full spirit of homeliness which endears Their Majestles so greatly to their subjects! when they ar- rived at the Ideal Homes Exhibi-

tion at Olympia recently to ln- qiect the replica of the King's House, which is the gift of the

Royall Warrant Holders’ Associa- tion. we realised this fact anew.

No newly-married couple could have been more enthusiastically in- teiested in their new home than were the King and Queen. The tiny golden key which was pre- sented to His Majesty to perform the opening ceremony proved highly intriguing, for it was mall enough to fold up lnto a. slgnet ring. Yet, in spite of this. the tiny key unlccks every room in the house, including wardrobes and cupboards, and is even the key of a. car. The King evidently doubt- ing its capacities, remarked smllingly. “Are you sure this is big enough for the purpose? The Queen was also interested, and exclaimed lncredulously-“It seems impossible that it can open any lock!"

Every room in the house came in for its share of appreciative praise from Their Majestles and when the bathrooms were reached, the King. noticing that one bath was fitted with special "hand holes" ln the rim, remarked upon this idea Mld expressed his pleasure. "That's a splendid idea» I wonder that all baths are not fitted llke that."

bet us hope that our architects will take the hint and make baths: safer than they are at present. for than; 1.; a great deal of room for improvement in this direction.

The Queen, as usual. was ex- tremely interested in the kitchen an-angements. while the Regency blue curtains appealed to iser artistic sense very much. for she 1m- mediately exclaimed at their beauty.

BACK T0 SOLOMON

Even to follow Scriptural ex- ample may be embarrasing at times. A southern Judge had to decide a case curiously like the one that exercised the wisdom of Solo- mori.

Two negro women each asserted that a little baby boy, brought lnto court, belonging to her. Obviously this was an" opportunity for the Judge to follow Solomonic prece- dent. He told the women that he would cut the child in two and give each o! them one half.

The rival claimants were dread- fully upset. and they both screamed: "Don't do that, boss. You kin keep him yourself." -

garnish this with chopped candied fruits of mixed colors; and proceed in this way. using dark and light slices alternately in starting each sandwich, until all the slices are used up. It is essential they be cut thin, for the finished tau-tines should be cut in triangles or nar- row strlps to eat as finger foods.

PHOTOGRAPH“? PROCESSES FIRST STARTED 1N 1727

There have been numerous in- ventors of photographic oxocases. J. H- Schultz in 1727 made the first photographic copy of writing. 1n 1802 Thomas Weclwood copied pictures by the action of light. Joseph N. Nlepce produced the first permanent pictures in 1814. Louis J. Dagueri-e in 1839 made public the details of his daguer- rotype process of sensitizing a silver plate with iodine and developing with vapors of mercury the image produced on exposure. The centenary cf Nlepce's death was recently celebrated in France. His photographs were made on tin coated with bitumen of Judea; this bitum l ,whlch is soluble in- es- sence of lavender, becomes in- soluble when exposed to light. After fourteen years of experimenting he was able to fix permanently the image of the camera on tin. For some years before his death Niepce was in partnership with Daguerre. and later Nlepce's son Isadpre Joined Daguerre ln his wor

"A PRIVILEGE T0 SHAKE HAN

D?’

The Prince of Wales shook hands with a. pensioner, who recalled shaking hands with the King. when he visited the Royal Hospital. Ohefsea, S. W , recently.

The Prince gazed at the decorations on the pensioners red coat and placing his left hand on his shoulder, said, "It is indeed a. privilege to shake hands with you."

There are many commercial pro- ducts on the ma-rkot for cleaning wallpaper ,a.nd I watched a man clean a very soiled piece of paper recently with a mat made of rubber and felt, which has been chemically treated. The result was very fine: but he was truthful, and assured us that it did only surface cleaning; grease spots, etc.. would require sn- other klnd of cleaner. A paste of magnesia and benzlne applied to grease spots and allowed to dry, then mbbed off. generally makes short work of such spots. Remem- ber always that bensine is highly inflammable.

It is hard to answer definitely the heart- rsnding cry of the forgotten girl because, as the Scripture sets forth, the way of‘ a. man With B maid is s. mystery past all solving, and no one, not even the man himself, knows what it is 1.n a woman that strikes his fickle fancy.

furnish her a husband if she knows how to handle them. It is ‘ so many women are so deeply and abysmally ignorant of how to please inter; that there are sc many wallflowers at parties and so many old maids a ome. '

The first thing that a girl who wishes to be popular with boys should remember ls that men are window shoppers. So in order to attract their attention she must put up the best show she can. Every man gives every girl he meets the once-over and if there isn't something about her that catches the eye. he passes on. This does not mean that she has to be a “Miss America." Still less does it mean that she must look as if she spent half her life in a beauty shop and is a daily hint from Paris, but it does mean that she must look clean and well groomed and know how to wear her clothes.

Men abstractly admire living plot/tires, but. they are generally willing to let other men hang them on their walls. They shun girls who are too well dressed. because you cant take what looks like a million dollars’ worth of clothes out of the movies. They loathe getting a mouthful of rouge every time they kiss a girl, and, besides. they are repelled by artlflciallty. They like a. girl who is pretty but not too pretty; who is well enough dressed to 155:8 them proud to take her out, but who isn't dolled up like Mrs. Astor-

The Rirl who wishes to be popular with men should also remember that men like a girl to show that she is pleased with their attentions. but they d0!" Wlmt he!‘ to be so grateful that it shows that no other man ever noticed her. When it comes to women no man trusts his own judg- ment. He wants the 0. K. of his fellows on them. And a girl makes a fatal mlstailce when she doesn't adopt the take-you-or-leave-you attitude toward them. Once let a girl get a reputation as a. telephone hound who pursues a man even w his work with suggestions about dates and why- havent-you-been-to-see-me, and she. becomes a pest that men avoid as they would the smallpox.

On the contrary. don't be Lady Dlsdain. she is out, in these days of spoiled men. Let a man perceive that he interests you strangely; that he ls different from other men, somehow; that you enjoy being with him. Appear to have the time of your life when he takes you out. Make him feel that you prefer his nlvver to a. Rolls-Royce. Show appreciation o! his efforts to give you a good time. Be willing, but not too willing. Meet him half way but don't go the whole distance. A wit has said that a. marriage is what happens when a. man captures the woman who was rim- ning after him. l

If you want to be popular with men, be adaptable and learn now to do things. No man takes the girl out a. second time who 15 a, spoilaport, and who ruins a. party because she never fits in wit-h the crowd and can't do the things the others do. The girl who is good-natured and gets fun out of everything, and who can sing a little and cook a little and start games and think up stunts is the one who is always thought of when a party ls organized. The girl who can play a good game of tennis or golf. or bridge is a hostess‘ delight. The girl who is a superlative dancer never lacks for partners. The girl with a good bag of parlor tricks takes the wedding cake very time.

finally. the girl who wants to be popular with men must suit her technique to the man- Some men like to do all the talking. Other men want a woman to entertain them. Some men like to be fed- flattery with a shovel. Others like to have it subtly lnslnuated that they are the worlds wonder. Some men like women who are brilliant and acintillatin . Others prefer Dumb Doras. But there ls a way to every man's liking for the woman who is clever enough.“ find 1p DIX.
