Fortunately, no serjous accident occur- red, and the children made excellent climbers, which stood them in stead, especially when they were in the mountains, One mother who was tmid in thunderstorms determined her children should have no such dread. As soon as ‘they were old enough to notice tempests she would take them in her lap, where they would feel safe, and sit near a closed window.

A fairly recent magazine article had quite & discussion of the place of mag- ple corners in @ home. Not only do they have a place, but exceeding charm. To prove that, Nancy asks you to g0 with her to a small cottage built in the: woods. The. living room has cypress walls. There is, of .course, & large fire place. It is built of stone, with. a mantel of cypress. Above the mantel is & bullt- in cupboard with a door which is flush with the walls. It has interesting hinges, flat, old and French, which the owner had ‘acquired in her travels. ‘There are shelves behind this door and on them are stored a few vases and flower holders, a book or ‘two, & sweetmeat jar and & few other odd- Cupboards similar to these early American homes. L In the bedroom there are & pair of open cupboards with shelves. They are small affairs, not more than seven inches deep, about that width and ap- proximately 30 inches high. They are left uncurtained and are not closed with doors. The inside of the cupboards, shelves and all, is paint- ed a soft green. They might have been papered with that quaint old paper studded with small gold stars. Or the shelf edges might have been painted a brilliant color. ‘The shelves hold the books one might want to read when sleep deserts one at night. A bowl of flowers, a plece or two of bric-a-brac, a collection of some sort—say, china animals or glass paper-weights could easily find a home in such tuck-away spots. Many a householder, like a magpie, has a pro- pensity for storing away a few choice objects. Spiced Ginger Bread. Cream together one-third cupful of butter and half a cupful of sugar, add one-third cupful of molasses and one well beaten egg. Sift together one and one-eighth cupfuls of flour, three- fourths teaspoonful of baking soda, half a teaspoonful each of ginger, cin- namon and nutmeg and a pinch of salt. Add to the butter-and-sugar mixture alternately with half a cupful of hot water, Bake in small muffin tins and serve hot with whipped cream. | Straight Talks to Women About Money BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN. Right Impression. You have no better opportunity to make the right impression than by spending your money correctly. 'How do We judge our friends and our neighbors? We usudlly look ecritically at their homes, their clothing, their ways of living in gemeral. In other words, we examine their habits of spending and judge them thereby, If a new family moved into our neighborhood and were unknown to us, we might judge them by superficial things—by their clothing and window if nothing else. We have Jearned that good taste and- sense in | jjyin, spending go hand in hand with char- ugtcr. Iwfle frown tpon the ‘“showy” ones, we approve of the “tasty” ones. Some of us judge others by the way they talk about their spending ' and their possessions. The Wwoman Who puts on a “front” never ‘wins our respect or confidence.. We know that she is mostly pretense. The woman who “hoards, or the wornan who is parsimonious, seldom wins our favor either. ‘We like to associate -with people whose spending and living ways are like our own. The people who make the right impression’ on us are those HRE who spend according to our lights--and our-lights are the conventional lights of the community. In so regarding other people, we may forget that we, too, are making our impressions, right or wrong, by the same means. If we do the things we thay expect to find the same con- demnation . in the eyes if not in the speech of our neighbors, ‘Why make a' good impression? Be- cause it is natural to wish to find favor in the eyes of the people with whom we live. Because their favor is merely a stamp of approval on right 8. Some may think that “making the right impression” necessitates a total loss of individuality. That is not a fact. - Good sense and good taste do not require compliance with any uni- formity of living. One spends and lives according to one’s own means, { tastes and habits. Remembering that in every. expendi- ture we are making either a right or wrong on, we will be ready to check up on ourselves and try to make the right impression. The ‘friendly but critical eyes of our- neighbors tell us many things. All of them are worth reading.
