Living in the Open Air, Before living in the open air be- came the fad into which it has de- veloped today, porches and piazzas were little more than enclosed kouse entrances and exits. Occasion- ally the family sat out on the en- closed piazza it the weather were neither too hot nor too chilly, but as ior transforming this architectural feature into comfortable living quar- ters few even thought of doing so, or cared about it if they did. From being the least important part of the summer cottage and camp the piazza has now become the cen- ter, relatively speaking, around Which the of the cottage planned and built, The outdoor room is the meeting place of family wid friends during the summer sea- and in its cool seclusion are served breakfasts, luncheons, after- and oven dinner, while at ol the day there is e something entertaining and in- teresting going on in its delighttul surroundin L 7 rest Fon, roon tei cther periods sure 1 (B Having reached this place of im- the constraction of the Lhome, the wife thinks ot when ortance | odern first samnmer house begins to arrang is what 1o choose for and dining room of furnitur and furnishin: i (h”lll?lhl living Portunately de-izners with servicehle nands of the summer colonist, the that and cund to harmonize with almost result useful, decorative turnishings can he any Lape and of outdoor room * v e {Yvench Women Are Thrifty.

POTPOURRI THAT WILL LAST Little Siand That Presents No Prob- lems to Daunt the Amateur at This Kind of Work. This useful Yittle stand into which newspapers may be slipped is quite easy to make and the amateur may undertake it without fear of fallure. A strong wooden box of a suitable size should be obtained, and a well- made case that has, perhaps, contain- ed a dozen bottles of spirits or wine will be found very suitable for the purpose, and may be obtained from any grocer almost for the asking. One end should be removed, and & portion of the lid, and the remaining portion of the latter securely nailed down in {ts place, and the construc- tion thus obtained is shown in the dlagram at top of the sketch. This woodwork has then to be up- holstered and must be covered with some suitable material, cream colored art linen having been used In the stand from which our sketch was made. It is an easy matter to fasten on the material inside and underneath the box with tacks, and the woodwork should be covered wherever it will be visible. The word “newspapers” was work-| ed in dark blue silk on the linen cov- ering the front of the box, and this portion was further ornamented with a border of tiny brass-headed nails driven in close together, and the edges of the stand were decorated In a like manner. AWAY WITH WINTER RUGS Floor Coverigs of the Lightest De- scription Should Be Used Dur- | ing Summer Months. | — | The housewlfe who desires her sum- | mer home to appear restful, cool and comfortable will remoyve the thick-! napped floor coverings which have done service during the winter. | They disagrecably emphagize the warmth and stuffiiness of the room, and are extremely difficult to clean. After making the rugs and carpets moth-proof roll them upon poles and ' store away until the cool days of fall. There are plenty of light, cool floor | coverings to be had under the names | of colonial, cottage and bungalow rugs | which are incxpensive, attractive and practical. There are rugs woven of cotton Iiwe Boen Spursed on. o mobt the do. | oM without seams and in any size desired. Many pretty deslgns are to be found in these rugs, or they may be had in piain colors. Returning to the days of the “four- poster” and figured chintz curtains, we find the rag carpet. One of the popular rugs for the | summer cottaze is woven of rags, with a landscape bhorder showing small blouges set among trees and a portion of the counery road. There are factories where you may send your rags to be woven. To pro- duce the hest effect the rags shounld be dyed a uniform color. Pale blue, green, pink and light tan make an ef- fective covering for the floor, The braided rugs, scorned long, are fashionable again. wearing qualities are proverbial. These rugs are easlly made :t home, the rags bralded and fastened together. Japanese matting Is always cool, and the soft pliable varlety woven of fine pgrass is especially pretty.

Gather rose petals when the dew has been dried off by the morning sun and pack them in layers in a glass jar. The layers should be two inches deep and two tablespoonfuls of flne salt should be sprinkled over each layer. Continue this until the jar is full, adding fresh petals as you gather them day by day, if you have not enough at first, and salting each stra- tum. Keep the jar in a cool, dark place and covered closely. The jar filled, do not open it for a week. Then turn out the salted petals upon a broad platter and toss and pick apart the matted mass until the leaves are dis- integrated. Have ready mixed this seasoning: Violet powder, one ounce; orris root,‘ 4 1 f one ounce; rose powder, half an ounce; powdered mace, half a teaspoonful; cinnamon, a quarter teaspoonful; cloves, one-half teaspoonful; oil of chiris, ten drops; oil of melissne, ten drops; oil of eucalyptus, twenty drops; bergamot, twenty drops; alco- hol, two drams. Incorporate the salted petals thor oughly with thls mixture, pack in a clean “rose jar,” and set away to ripen and sweeten. It will be ready for use in a fortnight and keep fragrant for years. It 1s best to pack it into small jars after the “ripening” 1s completed. Pretty widemouthed vases with tops of the same material may be bad at ( china stores. A rose jar is a nice gift at the holidays. If you can paint china yourself and invent some ap! design the value of the gift is trebled. When you wish to scent & room leave the cover o the jar off for an hour—not longer, or the centents will dry and lose much of their strength. PRETTY JACKET FOR SUMMER New Idea That Is Cool and May Be Made a Decidedly Attractive Garment. The most easily made combing Jacket which has been seen in many a moon {8 the summery-looking affair made of crepe de chine and consisting of a yard-long strip of the material which {s 8o very wide that when once it Is doubled the halves are deep enough to cover a woman of ordinary size from shoulders to hips. Having determined which side of the fold-over fabric is to be the front of the garment, split it straight up- ward two-thirds of the way to the fold and from there slant both sides to form a deep V. That will leave, when teut out, a raw edge of several inches length at the top of the back of the Jacket-to-be, and in order to make this it must be shirred onto the band of nar- row ribbon to which is hemmed the sides of the front’s V as well as its two split edges. The slecves are merely continuations of the folds of materlal that fall from the tops of the shoulders, and these cover only the louter sides of the arm to the elbow. Beneath the arms, the edges are tled together with narrow ribbons, having | first been hemmed on to staying bands. At the lower edge of the back and fronts, however, there need be no staying ribbon or other finishing, as the doubled over material forms a selvage ed ing, RICH LOOKING MANTEAU —ERR.
