Draperies, Shades, Rugs. Window draperies should serve the same purpose as lamp shades, soften g the lizht and affording a warm ow if it is a cold, northern light, or neutralizing it if there is too much sun. If there is a pleasant view from your window do not hide it with heavy Jraperies. in open net on rings. easily drawn aside, will soften the light if necessary. One of the first principles of art is that good decoration never in- terferes with use, and this is nowhere more excellently exemplified than in the matter of draping our windows. Window draperies, when used, may add interesting color spots to a room. Often the color of the window curtalns determines thas color scheme of the room, and because it does this the v ow group is the focal point of in- terest in that room. In such a case is necessary that every part of this rect in color and detail. relation of the valance and . drapes, as well as the color h 1s most effecitve for tiebacks or edging and braid, must be caretully considered. It is far-more interesting to have the valance a solid color it the draperies are figured, and vice ersa. For the tiebacks use the same material as the valance. Accented spots of color in window decoration are necessary, and for this purpose black is the safest and mo: effective. It may be introduced in +as. sels or in a narrow braid. A color that is complimentary to the general color scheme of the room is also excellent for accent. The accent that is used on the curt should be used for the same purnose throughont the room. ¥ al hade produces a com- fortable. radiant glow it impresses us as being successful, whether it is nade of g mica or paper.

Chilldren ought to know at least one other tongue than English. The time to teach it is when they are in full tide of language learning, from 4 to 12. We teach languages to children long after their thirst for language experience has been slacked. Then we drill on the grammar instead of talk- ing the language. The only way to Jearn any tongue is to speak it and that is about the last thing the children studving forelgn languages get a chance to d In some schools they have hit upon a fine scheme. There is a teacher of languages the children know her a8 the play teacher. Once a day she appears in class, from the babies up, and stays to play with them. She knows the 1nost interesting play stunts, but she talks only in French or German or Italian, whatever class is in order. The children learn to speak that tongue very quickly and by the time they reach the upper grades they are ready for the more formal study, grammar and construction in speech and writing. But in most schools the same old grind continues. No language but Eng- lish through the grades until you reach high school work and then the stilted sentences and the grammar. The high school student complains bitterly about his difficuities with the Janguage prescribed, but he has to arill his way through enough of it to pass the examination when he will close the book and forget the whole Tt is a great loss. Those children whose parents speak a foreizn language should hold on to their heritage and cultivate the speech of their fathers as well as that of their own country, America. It is easy for a child of Italian parentage to learn Italian and for the German child to learn German. It will main- tain sympathy between children and parents if this is done and anything that holds children and parents to- gether is not to be lightly regarded. A second language opens another literature to its po: ssor. The scien- tist must read in French and German .nd Itallan. The engincer and the doctor and the lawyer and the writer nd the teacher must Kknow other fongues if he is to know the contribu- tions the masters have made. The bhusiness man who can command other to, than his own has a great advantage. If you can speak to a man in his own tongue you have the key to his mind and his heart. The artist must be brother to all the world and one tongue scarcely fills the need. Whoever it is and whatever his work, the gift of tongues will enrich and impower Him. Then try_to give that gift to the children. If you speak a second tongue, teach it to your children. If not, get some ome who is of that tongue to do so. tet a Dublin Uni- versity man to teach your child Eng- lish, bat get a Frenchman to_teach French and an Italian to teach Itallan and a German to pass on his tongue, You cannot teach what you do not know and It is rare that one born of one people can teach the speech of anether. It can be done, but rarely. And_begin young. The language time lies between 4 and 12.

A Surprise. No one had noticed that the stranger was not present during Cosette’s theft of the doll. In fact, he had left quietly while she was still playing with (ho lead sword. Cosette now iooked about for him, thinking perhaps this kind friend would in some way com- fort her, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are adverse until noon. They then change and become favorable, and continue so until late in the evening, when they assume an unpropitious character. During the forenocon only customary duties should receive your attention, as there will be lacking those stimu- lating vibrations so necessary to suc- cess {n any line. Although the after- noon omens are good, they do not counsel _any radical change or fresh effort. Rather do they indicate a time for useful thought and planning. Poise and self-restraint will be needed late at night to avoid suspicion, doubt and misgiving. Children born tomorrow will not dis- play at birth that degree of robustness desired by all parents. This will not, however, detract from their ability to fight successfully the ailments of which they will be the subjects of at- tack. Thelr recuperative powers will be very great, and there is nothing in the signs to justify either anxiety or misglvings. Temperamentally, they will be rather evasive, and very dis. posed “to pass the buck.” They will lack a good many of the characteris- | tics that charm during childhood. Pre- | cept, accompanied by example, and a fund of patience will have their effect, and the evils can be eradicated and virtues implanted. If tomorrow is your birthday you lack self-reliance and are nervous about taking a chance. It is prudent, of course, not “to throw away dirty water until you get clean,” but is sometimes imprudent to hold on too long to the former, when just around the corner you can find an abundance of the latter. You will have better success if you rely more upon your own judgment than upon the advice of others. You are too easily con- vinced by the speciousness of others’ arguments, and too little disposed to stick to your own convictions. The signs denote that you have marked literary ability. You are fond of fun, and are generally considered to be good company. You have far-sighted vision and are extremely conservative—too much so for your own good—and very am- bitious, although rather fearful of tak- ing the necessary individual steps that will conduce to realization. You are a strong lover—both con- stant and loyal—and have a great love for your home, in which you delight to spend most of your time. ‘Well known persons born on that date are: Emma D. E. N. Southworth, author; Dion Bouclcault, actor and playwright; Charles H. Van Brunt, Jurist; George Dewey, third admiral United States Navy; William F. Mc- Combs, lawyer. (Copyright, 1925, Planning Food. The wise housekeeper will sit down with pad and pencil at the beginning of the week and make note of what she is to buy. If she “phones for food” she will probably think of the staples first, and after the menus are written she will make sure that the staples are resting comfortably on her pantry shelves. When it comes to de- ciding on how much to order of each article. the housewife must, of course, think of her available storage space. If she is a Kkitchenette mistress she will naturally have to buy in small quantities. Among the staples will be bitter chocolate, granulated sugar for mak-| ing caramels, herbs for soup and dress- ing, rye, graham and white flour, yel- low cornmeal, samp, bran, rolled oats, not to mention such gocd friends as tea, coffee, tapioca, gelatin and salad ofl. Cheese is used freely, and it is a good plan to think over the varities that it is possible to obtain. This variety is surprisingly large, and the cheese question will need considerable thought. For instance, the house- keeper who 18 planning for the week will get in touch with her dairy and arrange for cottage cheese for Thurs- day. She will order snappy cheese for sandwiches, American cheese for English monkey, and so on. When it comes to canned foods, she has quite a list to prepare. Poultry, meat and milk also call for special planning. Now we have not, of course, made any statements that are startlingly new. The point we are trying to bring out is that when making a plan for the week it is wise not only to write out the menus, but to definitely map out a campaign of ordering at the same time. Of course, any good housekeeper is accustomed to doing this, but not all have fallen into the “Papa made me go to bed without|habit of thinking of the week that is supper, and I-didn’t get none except|just ahead.

Shows How Unhappy Marriages Affect Others. While We See Awful Warnings in Some Married Lives, Every Really Happy Home Becomes a Matrimonial Agency. A YOUNG girl said to me not long ago: “I am in love with a fine young man who loves me and wants me to marry him, but I have refused him. I shall never marry because my own home life has given me a perfect horror of marriage. “‘Ever since I can remember life has just been one quarrel after another between my father and mother. They never agree about anything, and they seem to delight in hurting one another’s feelings and saying the cruelest and bitterest things they can to each other. “I couldn’t bear that.

UT when one considers the awful warnings against matrimony that some marriages present to the young, one does not wonder that thoughtful young people are scared off. Indeed, the amazing thing is that any one has enough foolhardy courage to take a risk which ends disastrously for so many. The dream of every young girl is to love and be loved, to marry and have husband and home and children. But when she rouses herself from her romantic dope dream and takes a clear-eyed glance at her married sisters, what does she see? She sees Sally, who used to be so gay and lively and the life of every party, a saddened woman, dejected and melancholy, her spirit broken by a tyrannical and passionate husband, whose bursts of wrath keep her terrorized. She sees Susan, who had a flare for business and who earned a big salary and was noted for her handsome dressing, shabby and seedy looking, wheedling nickels out of a tight-fisted man, who thinks that she should run her household on air and conjure food and clothes for a family out of nothingness. and who makes the first of the month, when the bills come in, a day of wrath before which she qualls. She sces loving, tender, littie Mimi, who could have had her pick of a dozen men, neglected by the one she chose, her heart broken, her beauty faded, withering and dying for lack of the tenderness without which she cannot live.

She deserved the best that life had to offer. If only she weren't so impulsive, if only she hadn’'t made up her mind to do this thing in such a radical way.
