/"VNE of the remarkable thingrs
about the new cottons is their.
great versatility. No matter whether
they are sheer or heavy there is |
invariably something • about them |
that adds a new note and makes
them just as desirable for the fall
and winter wardrobe as for spring
or summer.

Worn with a velveteen skirt it
makes a smart costume for those
indefinite in-between days of early
autumn and Indian summer.
The other model shows one of
the new fall costumes of cotton
crepe suitable for general daytime
wear. To demonstrate the vagaries
of fashion, the material in which
this dress is styled is distantly re
lated, in fact directly descended
from, a plain but durable mate
rial that was once used in making
hop sacks.

F,E STOPPED R.Y PAINT. —
Unprotected wood will weather
and decay, unprotected steel will
rust. Paint wards off these de
structive processes for an almost
indefinite period of time. There
are many wooden houses scat
tered through our seaboard
states that have been preserved
in good condition from 100 to
250 years hy means of paint.
The great Forth bridge from the
time of its erection has been
maintained in the same way. It
requires three years for com
plete painting. consequently
when the painters finish jit one
end they immediately go to the
other end and start again.
Successful men in the business
world who own extensive prop
erty, whether their property be
factories, mills or any other
type, have learned and practiced
>the economy of paint. The huge
industrial plants, for example,
are kept in perfect paint condi
tion. What is an economy for
the large concern is economy
for the small. The preservative
for the commercial building is
also a preservative for the
home.
The time to psiint is when
paint is needed, which means
every three to five years for a
wooden structure. There is no
economy in delaying because of
unfavorable money conditions.
How to Use Brickwork
in Garden Decoration
The flexibility of brick makes it a
delightful medium for use in garden
decoration. With its variegated color
ing it blends with its surroundings,
and since 110 one brick is a precise
replica of another, it is therefore not
monotonous.
Hard burned common brick is the
type of brick for garden decoration,
as tlfey are impervious to any action
of the elements. In the process of
burning the brick, all that was de
structible in the clay was destroyed.
Walls of any type, plain or in pat
tern. solid or in openwork, may sur
round the home. Recessed seats of
brick are charmi* y. and they should
he so placed as to receive the shade
of sheltering trees. If brick steps
are employed, they should he laid in
good cement mortar, but the walks
can be laid without cement.
The mortar used in walls should he
colored to harmonize with the brick
in contrast to foliage and flowers.
But for the steps, where there is a
grass-grown terrace or slope, bright
colored brinks laid in white mortar
give better results.
How to Save Old Home
It cannot he stated too strongly
that the American home owner is very
careless and improvident in destroy
ing many beautiful homes when it
would be the better part of econ
• any to remodel, sell and build a home
in some other location which they par
ticularly desire rather than to wreck
and build on the same location.
There is little sale on the market
for homes which are not modern, aim
if one expects to realize on the sale
••f his old home, it is a very excel
lent piece of business judgment t«> call
in an organization especially fitte-l
foi this particular line of work and
secure an estimate on the remodeling
'it the home before placing it on th
market.
These, homes will he much more
quickly disposed of and at a much
bettor profit than would be the case
should they he sold in their run-down
condition.
How to Cut Fire Loss
Sout'd principles of building con
struct ion. rather than a desire foi
certain conveniences which disregard
llie factors of safety, would decrease
tire losses and contribute to true eco'
oniy. The bulk of the lire waste in
human lives and money is prohah'v
due to tins false economy of the pub
lic in the construction of buildings.
It pays to employ sound principles
of buihlinu construction and to exer
cise the grealesi care in managing a
home in order to avoid fiie losses.
Kternal vigilance is the price of safe
ty from the tire demon.
How to Clean Upholstery
Make a very weak suds of mild soap
flakes and lukewarm water. Dip a
turkish towel in the water, then wrinn
out to remove all surplus moisture.
Place the towel smoothly over the up
holsterx to be cleaned, then heat with
a carpet beater. The towel will col
lect the dirt and prevents dust from
fl\iii|i around.

rocks. The host rubies are found in
Burma. They are the most valued
of all gem-stones.
