And now we are wearing one dress on top of another. At least the dress- rs have been making such con- traptions. Yvonne Davidson has made quite a name for herself with these double dresses. They are both of chiffon in different shades, and either one can be worn on top. Thus two effects can be gained. One dress of mauve goes with one of an odd shade of red. Exquisite blendings of color are obtained either way they are worn. -dress shows a frock of with a leaf green frock of black alpaca worn beneath. This can be slipped off as easily as a coat. Lucien Lelong has been showing double dresses consisting of a light silk frock beneath a dark cloth frock. Perhaps the most charming exam- ple of the double dress is in the realm of boudoir gowns. Sometimes both under and over dress are made of chiffon, while sometimes the under frock is of satin, with trailing over- dress of chiffon, The sketch shows a clever inter- pretation of this idea. The first frock is of mauve chiffon, and over this is a little red chiffon frock with red and lavender fringe. (Copyright, 19: 25.) lend themselves to al- form of bread pud- ding. For this purpose it is well to soak them until the stones can be taken out easily and then chop them. If the oven is very hot, put a piece of waxed paper under the casserole cover. This will pre- vent the contents of the casse- role baking too quickly. Peas are delicious if heated over hot water, then drained and seasoned with a generous piece of butter, salt and pap- rika. Let stand for five min- utes, for the seasoning to steam in, then stir in three or four tablespoonfuls of thick cream. When most any cooking canned to- matoes always add a little sugar. This removes some of the acidity and give a better flavor. An economical housewife finds very little for the.garbage pail. All ends of bread and broken pieces should be saved for stuffings, scraps of meat and Vegetables for croquettes. Whern making toast it im- proves it both in taste and di- gestibllity if the slices of bread are laid in the open oven for a little while before toasting them. They will toast better and more evenly for this pre- liminary treatment. WITH BURBANK Reported by Elizabeth Urquhart and edited by Luther Burbank. Lawns and Watering. lawn is to a garden what a set- ting is to a scene, or to be more poetical, an accompaniment to a song, enhancing it and bringing opt n Therefore the amateur gard- ener should leave space for his lawn in his earliest plans and get it well under way by the time the floral pro- cession starts, Just here suggestion e the A might be well to offer about making a plan garden, which is really as essential as when building a house Every one loves to draw house plans, and an equal amount of pleasure may be had out of garden plans. Take one-half inch ruled paper, each square standing for 10 feet, and fhen draw vour plan to scale. house be already there, allow for that space, then plan or change the roads paths. These last should not be less than four or five feet wide, and not too many of them, cutting up the lawns and flower beds; stepping stones may place paths with good effect After the plan of the garden is made and the walks laid out, space should be allowed for the lawn. The zround must be graded and leveled, then spaded, fertilized, raked and lightly mulched with oid manure or raw to keep the watering from packing the ground. While sweet white clover makes & watisfactory lawn, it requires more vater than grass, and on consulting Mr. Burgank, we find that he consid- ers pure Kentucky blue grass better than any lawn mixture, and that he again urges care in buying seeds from reputable seedsmen. He has experimented with a number of substitutes for grass, which he has ought to adapt for lands of little Among these is the Chilean npia, which, while responding to hy- bridization, and producing several zood varieties, is too tender for yrthern climates: also the mesem- vanthemum, a seacoast plant so ef- tively used in the grounds of the *anama Pacific exposition; the vinca jor, a slender, running vine with cvergreen follage, and the trailing hypericum, also native of the nountains of Chili. Mr. Burbank said n this connection Several species of trailing hype ;m have been received from Russia, Siberia and the central or northern irope, and after experiment these «ve shown a variation in rapid owth, compactness and promise of cveloping into & lawn plant suitable all climates. But until these new plants have n perfected the established lawn zrass, such as Kentucky blue grass, nust still be relied on or in some ases the coarser growing perennial e grass.” Watering a lawn is apparently a mple process, but there is a science it for all that. Irrigation itself oves tg a place in the front ranks the West where Summer rains are bsent and the water supply too often serious question, + But even on the Atlantic coast, where ain is both frequent and free, there ve seasons where artificial water- 15 is neceseary, and lawns in particu- must be looked after; moveover the ass roots so invade the entire sur- ace that the supply of water, however enerous, is 00 d up. Here is clearly a cdse for the best thods of irrigation, and as Mr. Bur- anks s Gardens and lawns are not properly vatered by small sprinklers, as they do water evenly. The water is dis- ibuted in such a way that some parts The sun shines in the springtime. With light so warm and kind That when 1 take my hat of F 1 Feel it on my mind.

It consists of a {number of three-quarter-inch galvan- | 1zed iron pipes with nipples placed along the sides from 12 to 30 inches apart. The pipes are connected with | the water supply by a_ garden hos |and a space from 25 to 50 feet is cov- | erea “When it is desired to install them permanently, the pipes may be camou- flaged by shrubbery and vines. A rub- ber hose is less expensive to buy than galvanized iron pipe, but the greater cost is more than made up by the great- er durability of the pipe.” A certain impatience to reach the subject of plaats and flowers was ai- layed by the very interesting comments made by Mr. Burbank on the topic of weeds and weeding. | “It will not be found enough to keep | your own garden weeded, it is necessary | to attack the weeds outside your own | boundary. lines. Weeds, like gophers and | moles, invade neighboring territory and have besides the gift of projecting themselves in all directions; they keep their vitality for a long time, some- times for years, and protect themselves |as do their betters, with spines and thorns. “They have besides the remarkable faculty of imitating the seeds of grains and other plants which puts them in the class of nature’s favorites. Hence, remembering &l these precautions against extermination which she has taken, ft will be realized that only prompt and constant warfare can save the garden from their menace. Not only do they crowd out more desirable plants, but they robe the soil of moisture and consume the food.” (Copyright, 1825.)

There is one story in the Bible that I believe is especially fine for teach- ers. story of the ninety and nine. These were all in_ the fold, but out in the hills was one stray. lost lamb, and the shepherd locked his flock up safely and went out searching for the last one and carried him home triumphantly in his_bosom The thrill of gathering up that last miserable, shivering lamb and bring- ing him home safely is the special prize reserved for the teacher who is entitled to spell his title with a cap- TR He's always found at the end of things. He's the last one to come to school; the last one to start for work; the last one to hand I mean the safe score. Usually the teacher tries to relieve the pressure of him by plac- ing him in the back seat and trying not to see him. But while that is hu- man it is not divine, and the divinity in the teacher is all that makes life in the classroom bearable. Let us go out after that last ome and bring him home safely. First, watch for the one thing he does. There is always one, even though it be but the lifting of his cap as you pass. Take him aside and tell him you like him for that. to him that he is liked. mark him and grade him and disci- pline him, you like him That will turn his eves, usually so consistently turned from you, toward you, and once his eyes are turned your way you have found his abid- ing place you have found his abid- lafter him to his rescue.

The aspects of tomorrow are un- favorable and do not encourage any effort of a fresh character or any departure from ordiparr routine or customary duty. They do portend that unless a great deal of self-re- straint is exercised much disap- pointment and worry will be caused. Care should therefore be taken to establish poise and deliberate care- fully and to think well before doing or saying things which otherwise you may be very sorry for. The signs today denote that although commercial lines may not be produc- tive of bad results, it were well to abstain, so far as possible, from any mechanical or scientific fleld or en- terprise. Toward evening the indications are that there will be a constant feeling of firritation, and quiet reading or harmless recreation is the best course to adopt in order to prevent the con- sequences of any such untoward ten- dencies. A child born tomorrow will enjoy exceptionally normal health during the period of infancy, and will be prac- tically free from those ailments to which all children are subject. This does not mean, however, that there should be any less care or vigilance. The very good health promised will invite this child to take chances which others woyld reject. This course may, unless proper watching is exercised, lead to unfortunate re- sults. In disposition happy-go-lucky, this child will be and will go its sweet way rather regardless of the feelings or wishes of others. Its character will be more obstinate than strong, and it will show a great deal of determination to accomplish any end it may have in view, notwith- standing the opposition it may en- counter. It will be necessary to in culcate in this child’s mind the bene- fits of unselfishness and careful con- sideration for the wants and desires of others with whom it is brought in contact. 1s April 14 your birthday?

For seeing eyes here fs a test— The bulldiog of a robin’s nest 0Old Mother Nature. Welcome and Mrs, Robin had re- turned early to the Old Orchard and were already at work on their nest Dbefore many of their feathered friends had arrived from the Sunny South, where they had spent the Winter. Peter Rabbit had been one of the first to greet Welcome and Mrs. Robin, and frequently in the early morning he slipped over to the Old Orchard for a gossipy chat with them. So Peter wds one of the first to know when they started nest build- ing. Even befors they had begun actual bullding he knew that they were getting ready. He knew the signs. They didn't have much time for gossip. There was a great deal of looking about. Welcome Robin was continually being called here and there by Mrs. Robin to look at this place and that. And when at last they decided on a place to build Peter was rather disgusted. It was in the lowest crotch of one of the apple trees and only a few feet above the ground ne: an br Pe he Th; PETER RABBIT HAD BEE THE FIRST TO GREET WELCOME 'TO MRS. ROBIN. “Now, what vas the use of all that looking about?’ muttered Peter to himself. “They didn‘t have to hunt to find that place. It was right under their bills from the time they arrived And what a place for people with per- | fectly good wings to build! Why Farmer Brown's Boy can reach that nest without getting off the ground It is a good thing that it is so near Farmer Brown's house, though if 1| were in Welcome Robin's place 1 would be worried to death for fear Black Pussy the Cat would visit it in the night. Well, it is no business of mine where they build their nest But if you had becn around to see how often Peter found an excuse to visit that part of the Old Orchard you might have suspected that it was some of his business. The truth is, Peter was much interested in the building of that nest. Always it had seemed to Peter a very wonder- ful thing that birds with only bill and claws to work with can build such wonderful nests. Indeed, it is wonderful. There are no familiar things more wonderful in all the great world From where Peter sat, close to the old stone wall, he could look up and watch the builders at work. At first there wasn't much to sec. But| gradually the walls of that nest be- gan to rise—walls of mud. Peter never will forget how surprised he was the first time he saw Mrs. Rob getting mud.
