It is an “r and Mrs. Shaffer en-!unanswerable question—unless it iIs that these “sponges” often belong to that scintillating and sparkling class who make their irresponsible charm a cloak for their faults. The girl who imposes on her hos- tess is a common type. She always brings more than her share of bag- gage, her trunks are piled in hall and attics, her visits extend intd weeks when she is invited for days, she gets up late and has to have a second breakfast, she asks the maids to press her gowns and shirt waists and forgets to give a compensating tip—her sins are legion and her posi- tion precarious, and it is only a ques- u‘.iu.gvmleru-evlll HE revival of “rag” carpet weav- ing has brought out numbers of new designs in rugs which merit the dignitied new name with which they have been christened. “Colonfal” is in every way a happy choice of names and the new rugs, made of rags, are pleasing to look at, good to wear, and fashionable. They are woven in all sizes; the smaller ones are easily washed and for bed- rooms, bathrooms and living rooms this one item alone commends them above all others. The old “hit and miss” pattern made of bright colors mixed with black and a little white makes a really handsome floor cover- ing for ball, dining room or living room. Inasmuch as smaller rugs are| out light—when necessary. 80 much easier for the housewife to handle and to keep clean, two or three small rugs are to be preferred to one large one for the rooms that are much used, and the “hit and miss” pattern with dark stripes in the bor- der is probably the best choice. Very bandsome rugs are shown in the stores having plain grounds in brown, grey, rose or tan, with striped or fig- ured borders. For living rooms dark- ance, and with plain or crossbar mus- stricken from the invitation lists of popular hostesses.—Exchange. Plants in the Home. If every housewife only knew the cheering effect of plants in the house there would be few if any homes in the world without them. Besides their making the jhome attractive and summerlike they help purify the air to a far greater extent than one would suppose; in fact, if each room in the house were to have a couple of pots of Boston fern the supply of oxygen diffused by them would be sufficient to sustann life for a time. The rubber plant is not to be over- looked as a houseplant, for besides its use it is little care. Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Raulerson spent yesterday in Lakeland, the guest ot Mr. and Mrs. I, B Riles.

THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAKELAND, FLA., Colonial Rugs . NOV. 10, 1911, count upon & room llllt is a thing ot beauty. By choosing plain paper for the walls and a plain ground in the rugs, with white or cream window draperies—one may indulge in cre- tonne coverings and cushions and & variety in such furnishings without the “cluttered up” effect which spolls 80 many rooms. Everything in a bed- room should be dainty. But nothing will stay dainty unless it is washable. The floor coverings, window hangings and even the window shades which will stand the tub, are of the sort to be a delight as long as they last. White shades of Indian-head cotton or butcher’s linen may be used, with & second pair of green shades to shut Or the windows may be provided with side draperies of cretonne which will an- swer the same purpose. There are some rag rugs which are not woven, that are washable, but not as attractive as the Colonial rugs. They are made of rags plaited into long strips and then sewed together. Some very rich looking rugs are made of short bits of rags drawn through a burlap foundation and tied. These follow a design stamped on the bur lap and are clipped oft evenly when the rug is finished. The effect is very rich and handsome, but such rugs are not desirable for entire tioor coverings, and will successfully not stand washing. They are fine for the iatroduction of bright bits of color ia & den or living room. With wear they get to look considerably like Oriental rugs when made of wool rags in rich colors.
