HENLEY'’S THE EVEWNING TELEGKAM, LAKELAND, i\, THE “SUPERIOR” SEX By ERNEST WOLLETT. Miss Belinda, at her summer home, was setting out a bed of vegetables with the help of the man she em- ploys by the day when she can entice ::m his old fiat-bottomed fishing “It was real smart of you to raise them there little plants in the city and bring them out here,” he said. “You'll have tomatoes and eggplant before any one else. I don't see how you ever come to think of them things. It beats all how some women can plan ahead more'n men folks. Now, that patch of onfons and lettuce you put in last fall before you went away has turned out fine, ain’t 1t?" “I'm glad, Cassius, to hear you speak highly of women's ability,” sald Miss Belinda. “I think we women will have to get you to work for us this summer.” “Ain’t I workin’ for you now?" ask- ed Cassius, mystified. “Some o’ them fellers that go by to the creamery mornin’s before you get down to the garden run me 'bout workin’ so much land arrange the household hangings and upholstering and to have them in | i readiness after the final houseclean- ¢ OCT, 19 PAGE PAVEN POINTS ON DRESSING WINDOW (4 Need Not Be an Expensive Matter to & Keep the Curtains Always Look- ing Fresh. With the first touch of coolness in he air, the housekeper’s thoughts turn | £ to her garret, where, if she s a good housekeeper, lles her supply of rough dried curtains, ready to be sprinkled (& and ironed, to do duty for another sea- son. Now is the time of year to plan ing is over and put into place. Many who have ecru curtains will find that they have become faded just where they hang against the window, but do not know that they can be ren- ovated back to their original freshness with very little trouble. Try dissolv- Ing two or three teaspoonfuls of yellow ochre in a half cupful of warm water and put it in your starch. There is pothing in it harmful to the curtains, and it does-not streak them. Yellow ochre can be obtained at any lwro where paint is sold, and it can bought in two or three cent quantities, as little is needed for the curtains. ] ¢ Have insects, roaches, mosquitoes and all kinds of bugs?
