Ii one has wisely chosen n companionahips and hobbies. iddle age may be the happiest me oi life. Illusions are gone, ll realities are". richer than youth- l dreams pictured them. The ac- lnlpllshments oi middle age are iterent in kind irbm those Dian- "d in youth, but they are oiten ater than those rainbow tinted llcies. By middle age, one has settled -- three greatest problems oi liie

marriage, liie work and religion and is ready to steam ahead on he track he has chosen. By this ime, he has learned to accept 1111188 gracefully and to cease beat- ng his wings in resentment gainst he inevitable. He has learned the great art oi facillg facts to make lhe best oi them, and, in spit oi ev- erything, to he happy.

One has learned confidence and dares attempt things, by this time iighas reached middle age. lie no longer holdsback because of inex- parlance and out oi deference to older heads, but has the courage of his own convictions. Nothing but years can give this. Youth has its Ulsy tints but these are not nearly so rich as the golden maturity oi’ middle age.

HANGING PICTURES.

The late style oi picturless walls makesa hare and cold interior. It is ‘a reaction from our over-pictur ed walls oi the last generation. A few well chosen pictures add char actor and charm-tent room. These do not need to be "expensive, as good reproductions oi great pic- tures are to be obtained.

One or two large pictures in a living room are better than many . small ones. Reserve the small on-

es and portraits oi friends for your bedrooms and less formal rooms. Small pictures, hung in a group, give life oi a corner.

Pictures should not be hung on ornate walls where they have to compete with their for attention. The ideal wall upon which to hang pictures is the plain wall oi buff or cream or ligllt gray, or some other neutral shade.

Picture frames should be simple nnd not such as to detract from the picture or seem tooutweigh ‘i’t"in value. Hang the picture "blind." that is. with the hanging apparatus hidden at the back, or, if it hangs from the molding. hang it with two parallel cords. The picture should be neither too high nor too low, but at about the level oi the eye when the ‘viewer is standing.

GINGHADWS TH E THING.

ln keeping with the present peas- ullt influence in illterior decorat- ing, the rage for gingham effects is sweeping the country. and with

good reason. say decorators. Ill gingham. the homemaker finds a drape fabric that is sunfast. tub- fast, easy to keep fresh and reason- llble in cost. To those prone to think oi gingham in terms oi checks, stlnlpeo and plaids there is a wondrous mvelutlion in ‘the cs1 comment of new color-lags, ihoth ‘plain and in design, now ‘being brqrghlt out to m‘ee1t ‘this new de- nvxlnd ior interiors, a-s well as for clothing.

The slu-niaet, ‘tubfest qualities oi‘ gingham are due to the fact that‘ the yiamnlis dyedibeione the cloth is woven. For this reason there is no

THE LIST.

if you want to save time and en- ergy, get the list habit. Make a shop/ping llzllst, and do not keep the clelrk waiting whale you 11111111 11111111 next, or yourself retracing. your steps from counter to counter as you remember your wants haphaz- ardly.

The list to things to send. things to do. railings to serve for meals. friends to invite. books to read, calls to make will save you much time. avoid waste motions and ensure thoroughness. speed and ease oi accomplishment. The list habit will give you a new meaning oi the word “listless? i}

NEAT HOSE. Do you fasten your stockings up snug and tight, or do you allow them to wrinkle at the ankles? Perhaps, it they wrinkle, it is he- cause oi ill fitting hose. Try an- other make and see ii that remedi- es the difficulty. When putting on stockings, one should take care to have the seam in the middle oi ‘the back of the leg, running straight up and not wavering, and should fasten- the stocking so securely that it w-ili not slump down in sbe draggled fashion at the ankle.
