The one important thing to remember is that the cundles are then for ornament solely, and are used to v out the traditional custom of lighted decorn- tion. To have the candles indicate the age by duplicating the vears in number is not to be thought of.

I'or many Years express companies all over the country paid heavily for losses In shipments of canary birds. The express companies undertook to deliver livestock satisfactorily packed for shipping and provided with food and drink, in a living condition. It was found, however, that nearly all canary birds sent by express died on the way. Presently they discovered that the birds were all dying of pneumontia, and this was traced down to the fact that they got themselves ‘wet and consequently cold in the car by taking baths, as birds are prone to do, in their water dishes. Their lowered temperature allowed them to succumb to pneumonia germs which are found everywhere in dust. Finally the question was solved by a clever man who installed patent ink wells for drinking vessels for the birds, so that by pecking the bird could get a swallow at a time and no more. th;\;?'w what do you know about Answers to Yesterday's Questions. 1.

Any One Can Make a Success of Parenthood Who Regards It as a Career and Not as a Sideline to Golf or Business,or Society. NOTHER thing that is the matter with parents ix that they don't try to understand their children. They never make even an attempt to find out what kind of minds and souls their children have, what thelr aspirations and desires are and what they really think about things. 0 The average father und mother think they huve done their full duty to their children if they feed and clothe them, and send them to school and spank them when they are bad and kiss them when they are good. It never occurs to them to consider that every child is a problem to whose solution it is thelr sacred duty to give the most intensive study and cvery bit of intelligence ot which they are capable. That is why when the adolescent boy and girl come to the critic al moment in their lives when they must choose their careers and turn to thelr parents for guidance their fathers and mothers fail them. Think of it! Is there anything in the world more amazing than that a father und mother could have lived with a child for 18 or 2o vears, could have watched its development for that length of time with so little interest and curfosity as not even to observe what tastes it had, what aptitudes, what talents? They have never even moticed that John, who is dull about books, has brains in his fingers, or that Tom is a book worm. or t Sam invariably outtrades the other Loys und has a corner on all the marbles fn the nu»n:hrl'ml utive. ! S0 the parents who have made no study of their children’s talents do not put the boy with mechanical talents into some occupation in which his gifte will find an opportunity for expression and in which he will be bhappy and successful doing the work nature intended him to do. Nor do they put the studious boy into a profession, nor make a business man of the one who was toreordalned and predestined to be a merchant and take they have are round | flounder around fons for wh hecause the They leave the poor, ignorant youngsters t the first jobs that offer and get into the occups {no taste or inclination and where they are failure pegs in square holes. Whereas only their fathers and mothers had taken the trouble to put themn into their right places in the heginning Worse still, instead of studying their children and finding out what they! are fitted for, many parents impose their own wills upon the youngsters and force them into careers that are a martyrdom to them. Or else they set their big flat feet down on genius and crush it out of existence. v e e e F.—\THIJ R, who conslders a carcass of dressed heef one of fthe most beautiful} articles in nature, cannot understand why his temperamental and finely strung son shudders waste his time playing on a fiddle.

The whole world is full of bugaboos to them and they see dangers where none exists. They have read so much about flaming vouth that they think it is ahout to set the universe on fire. Thev have heard so much about wild parties that they picture the hoys and girls of today as being on a perpetual orgy. So the great majority of parents have either thrown up their hands and quit and let their voungsters run loose or else they have clamped down the lid on them and zive them no liberty whatever. Especially are th mothers who, the; hard on the girls. effort to protect There are plen their daughters. keep them virtual . They are not allowed to dance or 1o go to shows. They are not permitted to have dates with Young men or to have buys come to see them at home.

HARL SHOPPING i el Shades for Your Porch. In order to make your porch really livable at this time of the year it and prevent whipping or flapping. On the better grade shades the cords are colored to match the shades. The shades should be colored with they might have been great successes, if | should be cool and shady. You'll be looking, therefore, for a porch shade that will protect against both the heat and the glare of the Summer's hot sun. Yet your shade also will have to be proof against strong winds and wear. Some women economize by purchaa- ing an ordinary canvas drop curtain. It shuts out the glare of the sun, but it absorbs and radiates heat, makes a porch airtight and gives no ventilation. Imported bamboo screens are .usually constructed flimsily, and their open spaces admit as much sun as they shut out. They seldom last {longer than a season. H { The American splint shade is gen- jerally conceded to be the most satis- ifactory. Long thin splits of wood are vcoven together with cords of fish- net twine. They make a screen that's tough, ,pliable ‘and .light in weight. ‘There are ventilating spaces to pro- vide for circulation of air. The warm air rises to the top, and the cooler air enters in the spaces below.' A properly constructed shade will shut out an ordinary rain. When you're buying your porch shades make certain that they will be easy to set up. Some of them come with special staples, which you must only drive into the porch beam or screen frame, and then hang the shade to them. The shade may be instantly lifted on or off. Each shade should have at least two adjusting cords for raising and lowering; one cord won't hold it securely in plac waterproof stains, so that they won't fade or discolor in any weather. You will generally find porch shades in stock sizes of 3 to 12 feet in width and 7 and 71 feet in height. They fit the average porch without any trouble, _Stock colors are generally brown, olive, green, gray, brown and olive, green and white, brown and White. You can also order special sizes or colors. When ordering vour shade remem- ber that a single wide shade is pref- erable to two narrow shades. If the shade hangs between posts a clear- ance of at least three-quarters inch on each side should be allowed. If | there are any special problems con- nected with hanging vour shades, fer them to your dealer. He prol has instructions from the factory erfence of his own. You'll get the | greatest porch comfort by shading all | {openings, including the screen doovs. North openings should be shaded, too, or the seclusion afforded and nro- tection against wind and rain, Many dealers carrv only a limited supply of shades. If you don't buy yours now you will suffer u delay later on when you need the shades them on. ———e On his way to see his youngest sen after an absence of 17 years, Ben- jamin J.
