SONG FOR A LITTLE HOUSE I'm glad our house is a little house- Not too tall, no: too wide: Fm glad the hovering butterflies Feel free to come inside.

Dur little house is a friendly house; It is not shy or vain;

It gossips with the talking trees. And makes friends with the rain.

And quick leaves cast a hhlllllllfl‘ of green Against our whited walls, And in' the plllox the courteous bscs | Are paying, duly rails. ~~Chrlslophcr Niorley

ITALIAN BLUES AND mans

The ltercst in Italian or; colors in Paris has dlllWll an array of colors which a f already in evid- ence in present developments in French nlilliners‘ collections, Nat- ter bluc and kindred dull. old blues are mentioned repeatedly in

this connection, whiie old and dusty red is the equivalent for contrast.

One of the neighbors says she

has a card on whch she has past- ed household hints such as advice about removing stains and other laundly lore. She has shellacked the surface and it hangs in her laundry to be conveniently near when required.

The next time you break a cup at the nozzle of the sink faucet. slip a piece of rubber hose over it so that it covers the sharp edge. and you will save many a cracked and broken dish. The faucets are responsible for many a tragedy.

If your parchment lamp shades are shabby, rub them gently with gum ru-bber and they will be quite fresh again.

POTPOURRI (ROSE JAR).

Roses should be gathered in the early morning, and allowed to dry in a cool, dry place. They must be thoroughly dry before being uscd. Place the leaves in _ a glass jar, and have ready 1-8 i ounce of mace, and l-4 ounce each of allspice and cloves , all coarsely ground, or pounded with a mortar, half of a grated nut- meg, 1-4 ounce cinnamon. broken in bits. 1 ounce of powdered orris root, and l-4 pound of dried l lavender flowers. Mix these to- gether in a bowl and proceed to fill the rosw jar with alternate lay- ers of the "stock" (the rose leaves) and the mixture of spices. A few drops each of several essential oils -—rosc geranium, bitter almond and oil of vcrbena-are good. These should be dropped on the lay- ers as one progresses. Over the whole pour 1 ounce oi’ favourite toilet watcr, or eau de cologne. This is sufficient to fill two jars, or one very large one, and it will keep for years. Mixed flowers may be used if you larefcr that kind. Any glass jar may be used for a temporary" container.

Have you trouble in keeping fat after it. has been used for clccp fat frying? If so, try this plan: While the flit is still warm, but not hot. strain it through clean muslin or several thicknesses of chccsciotll. This will strain ollt the small par- ticles cf food wvllich accumulate- Aftcr the fa‘. has been used several times, staining alone may not be able to clarify it. When this hap- Dens. slice two 0r three raw po- tatoes into the warm fat. then heat it slowly to the frying tem- perature. Tilt‘ potato slices, which absorb most of ‘the particles too fine to remain in the cloth can be strained out.

The average child needs about n. pint and a half of milk every day. Parr, of this may be given with cereal. in soups and custards. and in other simple foods.

Dear Miss Dix-Before marrying twelve years ago I had about tcn ycars of ilurhclorhood, during which time certain habits of freedom and self-determination became pretty well fastened. The restrictions upon these which came with wedded life were at ﬁrst hard to take, but I finally accepted them as inevitable. During recent years, bowel er, my work has taken me afield so that. I am away froln home for months at a time. ‘These 5°3- sons of living my life as I wish. particularly the control of my rooming conditions and being able to have my clothes and belongings about me as I wish, have been so pleasant that it has set me to wondering why a measure oi‘ this comfort might not be feasible for a man in his own home. consequently I have suggested certain changes in our home to my wile, to which she objects for no reason that I can see, except that it interferes with her supreme authority.

S110 is in her early thirties, and now sllc has fallen ill love with a man and wants to marry lliin. i-iu l5 a ilnc nllln with a good job, very even-tempered and pleas- lllli. but they will not. lllllrry because 1 object. Tile man says that he will not lllilli)‘ my mother unless I will co-operate to make our home a happy one and will promise to treat him as if he was a real father. 1 aln very jealous of my mother's affection for hlm. Will you please tell me if I should promise to try to like this man? I will follow your ad- vice. DOROTHY. Answer: Well, ii you follow my advice, Dorothy, you will withdraw your ob- jections t0 your mother's marrying this kind, good man, and you will con- quer your jvalolls_y and treat him wltlythe respect that you would show your own father. Coilsldcl- ill tho ﬁrst place that you have no real cause for jealousy, because lilo love that your mother will give to her husband is entirely dif- fercnt from that which she gives to her children. The two emotions do not conflict ill any wily and nothing is slllier than to compare them. Your mother will look up to her husband. She will lean upon him and de- pend upon him, but her children will always just be part of herself -- somcthlng to cherish nnd guard and for which she will feel a tenderness she can nvvt r fccl tor any other human being. You might Just as well ask, which do you prefer, roast beef or ice cream, as to try t0 compare the love nf o woman fol" ilcr husband and her children. If you love your mother her happiness must. be your dearest concern. and you llluct know that sllc will be far better oﬂ in every way with a 300d husband who will stand DQtWOGH her and the world and take care of her than she will be struggling along alone, trying to support twp children. Your molllcr is in hcr curly thirties. She in still a young woman with doubtless a long tinm to live, and you must realize that the years will be lonely and dﬁsOluté to her if she has no companion after you and your sister lnnvc her to go about the business of life for yourselves. 0.‘ course, you think now that you and your sister and your mother will always be together, but that won't happen.
