The standard of taste seems to have been elevated. People are reading more than they used to, and art exhibits and pictures cannot but have had an influence on the public taste. The midâ€"Victorian age, with its atrocious furniture and heavy hangings, seems to have been the stage at which the "worm turnâ€" ed." } Little Choice Pieces May Be Added from Time to Time Often Marking Anniverâ€" sariesâ€"Useful and Pretty. «80 NUE 3N .E NUR U Noi on en minnene n on on en oo enc en e on d oooE en oo ooo en eCE NNNE Ee Period furniture was revived, and reproductions of the designs used by such artists in their line as Adam and «%e En O o e3 nmmmnnnenee enc e e3 omm eenere 2 on ie eee e en en on n en ene 2 0000 e encA n eA e enA tCtE NNUIIET TL i&e Served with fried potatoes or rolled in crisp, flaky pastry, there‘s nothing on a cool day to beat good sauisage. _ !‘, JARS 30c. & 60c.â€"TUBES 30c.â€"At all Drug Storee Duff‘s â€" Devonshire Sausacge Sealed "CALADA" MAINLY FOR WOMEN * i A. #560 is always pure and fresh. $o delicious!

The quieter lines and less ornate deâ€" signs caught the fancy of the more conservative people, and have held it. The general run of families today, even if they can only afford the most reasonable furniture, demand quiet, tasteful designs. The Georgian, Wilâ€" liam and Mary and Queen Anne period have all left their indelible mark on the taste of today. The days of the old haircloth parlor suite are over. The chesterfield has taken its place, with its accompanying bits of odd furniture. Once it was unâ€" usual to see piéces of furniture in a room that did not match. All must be on one design and one kind of wood. But that theory was exploded long ago and today a room containing odd bits of furniture in mahogany, rosewood and walnut along with the big, comâ€" fortable, upholstered â€" chairs â€" and lounge is the correct thing. For UTitility Also Among the odd pieces of furniture are many that are not only beautiful but useful, and that is a noticeable thing of all the furnishings of presentâ€" day roomsâ€"their general utility as well as beauty. If the man of the house smokes and the woman sews, then why not have the smoking cabiâ€" net and the sewing table an artistic bit of furniture? Se we have all kinds of tables, low set and higher, containing all that the smoker needsâ€"tables that can be brought right up to his elbows, and which will also serve to hold a reading lamp and a book or two. Probably some of the prettiest and oddest bits are to be found in the sewing cabinets. The Martha Washâ€" ington is a favorite, and one whose lines are good and whose decorative value in a room is fine. One with high legs and a handle to carry it about is shaped like a basket. The extra table is always a needful article. Whether it be the consul table for the elbow of the big chair, or the gateâ€"leg table, which may be used closed or open, there is always a niche for it. Even the tiniest room is adorned by a tipâ€"top, which when the emergency demands may be brought into use aso a larger Aable. Quaint lowâ€"set tea tables reek of the Orient. Little tables for ferns and odd ones for the telephone are among the artisâ€" tic designs. The long table to fill in behind the chesterfield is almost a necessity in a large room, as it holds the reading lamp, all the books and papers of an evening‘s reading. Who ever would have thought in our grandmother‘s day of a marvelâ€" lous table that could be set out all ready in the kitchen, and then wheeled into the room, complete with cups and tea pot, cream and sugar, and the dainty things to â€"eat. From a wee drawer in the end comes out the teaâ€" The greatest boon to the presentâ€" day hostess is the nest of tables. For teaâ€"and who has not pitied the men folk balancing the teacup?â€"or for an extra pridge table, presto! the nest opens and two, three, or even four, little tables are at once at her comâ€" mand. At the tea. hour the curate is another welcome addition to the family circle, as it holds the sandâ€" wiches, the cake and the biscuits or nut bread, and the guest may take his choice. Of course, the tea wagon is the wonder of the age. spoons and the napkins. Up comes an extra leaf or â€" twoâ€"â€"in fact, it is more than a tea wagon, it can be used for the veranda luncheon just as easâ€" ily with its two drop leaves. up (if you happen to have that kind). To leave odd bits of furniture withâ€" out mentioning the footstool is to leave out the solid comfort end of life. With the big comfy chait, the table at one‘s elbow, and the lamp shedding a soft glow over the book, what is needâ€" ed but a footstool? These may be had in different heights and sizes, often upholstered to match the rest of _ the room. The long fireplace stool is a big brother to the footstool, and in a large room is often used to sit on while warming up before the log fire on the chilly days. Before she bought the stove, moâ€" ther asked the man who sold it to her if he would teach her how to use it, and she went more than once to the store early in the morning, to learn all about it. Cooking ‘in‘ Canada is done,> of course, by the same methods and on the same principles as in other counâ€" tries varying with the time of year, the climate, the food supply, the kitchen equipment and the knowledge, resources, skill and interest of the mistress. Nothing in the house is more imâ€" portant _ or more interesting than cooking. Mother never looks prettier than when she is presiding over the destinies of the family from her throne in the kitchen.. Her hair is always so nice and she smiles her moâ€" ther‘s smile. You can hardly tell which dres she has on because her apron covers‘it. It is elither a blue and white, or a pink and white apron, with short sleeves and two good pockets, in one of which is always a "holder" to handle anything hot, and in the othaer, a pair of household gloves. ; Just a suspic‘on of paraffin in the final window polishing will keep flies off. 3 Efficiency Means Muchâ€"Nothing in the House is More Important or More Interesting Than Cooking A solution of cream of tartar will reâ€" move grass stains from a white woolâ€" len coat or skirt. Mix with water to a thin paste, apply to the stains, alâ€" low it to remain on all night, apply again, and hang in the sun to dry. PROPER WAY TO USE YOUR STOVE HOUSEHOLD OILâ€"CAN At least once a month should the bearings of the house be looked after. Only a drop or two of oil is required for each bearing, but none should be overlookedâ€"the washing machine, the clothes wringer, the food grinder, the iceâ€"cream freezer, the eggâ€"beater, the scales, the baby‘s goâ€"cart and scores of other things about the home. Any oil remaining/on the outside of the bearing must be‘ removed with a cloth, or it will collect dust and stain the clothes coming in contact with it. A certain housewife who left the iceâ€" cream ‘freezer and meat grinder out of the monthly oiling for a long time, fearing that in some way. the oil might find its way into the food, found on careful examination of the construction of these ~machines that this danger has been guarded against. The labor of turning them can cerâ€" tainly be reduced by lubrication. When going about with the oilâ€"can reâ€" member that a few drops of oil in the window fastenings® causes them to work easily. The nerve exhaustion of a daily tussle with a sticking, screeching window can be eliminated by a few drops of oil on the window pulleys. & DRIVE AWAY MICE If a trap, or the best remedy, a cat, is objected to in ridding a house of mice try plugging the mouseholes with bits, of sponge or cotton : wool saturated with oil â€"of peppermint, and sprinkle the oil in places frequented by the pests. | JÂ¥ wood fire burns ; you cannot burn coar ]‘,),‘llt you can burn w gtove.

He rules from his highâ€"chair throne like no emperor of today can do. His veriest wish is law. There is no howling mob erying out: "Kill him! Down with Royalty!"

Of frankincense and myrrh? Nay. But of silk and wool and the softest of cambric; of laces and ribâ€" bons, and perfumes, too; of toys that bounce and of toys that float. The Baby! _ If you search the shops for furniâ€" ture to enhance the nursery, you will find much thafi is attractive to pick from. There are bassinets for the tiniest one, wicker bassinets with frilly linings in softest colors. They may also be purchased plain, and lovâ€" ing bhands may decorate them to suit the babe‘s owr individuality. . There are cribs with or without wheels, the sides of manyfg%f them being railed up to above the danger zone. One parâ€" ticularly lovely variety will pack up into a small space for travelling, and has the sides filled in with screening. For the Bath For ‘the baby‘s bath may be found the loveliest Of wee tubs; some indeed most elaborate. One was found upon a high stand, the bath itself being of rubber so S0ft and â€"impressionable that it could Rever hurt the baby‘s soft ~skin. Pretty wicker baskets holding all the accessories, such as soap, powder, ‘pins, brush, vaseline and absorbent cotton, were seen. Other wicker ‘furniture included a lovely rack wWith little drawers that pulled out and in which the baby‘s towels and °Xfra clothing might be kept. Several varieties of clothes racks were nOliced for hanging the wee things 0.‘;hi1e the ‘bath was in progress.. _ M The highâ€"chair stage is always an interesting OM€ for a household. â€" It is the stage Wi‘i?,l,l ‘the baby becomes a tyrant and 10Â¥eS to throw his little spoon, with its curled handle which fits his hand, ONnto the floor. How he laughs and Wa.'hes for you to pick it up, when he Will do it again and again, as ofteM as you will act as slave.

Baby‘s little toilet chair may be had in white wickâ€" er or in plain varnished wood. A fascinating assortment of French dresses had jJust arrived in one of the big stores for the baby. Oh, yes, his fashions come from Paris, too. One of the finest net was trimmed with daintiest lace and shirred ribbon. A model of dotted Swiss muslin was enâ€" hanced by insets of lace medallions. Another one which came from Belâ€" gium, was Of cambric embroidered most beautifully by hand in an intriâ€" cate design. Others were: trimmed with Baby Irish, while several georgâ€" ett ones and silkâ€"pleated ones were noticed. § Bootees in wool soon pass, and then comes the moccasin stage, when the varieties of soft little kid boots are used. Many silk shoes in braided and embroidered styles are used at this age before the baby gets on his feet. Among the plainer and more sensiâ€" ble, although not so gorgeous, dresses were dainty ones in cambric and cotâ€" ton with tucks and frills and little bits of lacy trimmings. The petticoats were found in cotton and flannel as well, the Gertrude pattern {buttoning on the shoulder) being the favored one. Woollies are always an important thing in a baby‘s layette. The knitted articles are so lovely that it would be hard to pick a present for the Best Baby in the World. The bootees come in softest wools, crocheted or knit in lovely stitches. The woolly shawls in Shetland and zephyr may be had in plain or honeycomb stitch, with someâ€" times a silk mixture, nearly always with a deep fringe. Some of the soft little face shawls for the baby come in almost pure silk. Bonnets in the smallest baby size are often found in Angora wool, while the handâ€"knitted ones in the heavier wools go more to the larger kiddies. Pullâ€" overs for the cool days that are comâ€" ing may be found in quite a nice heavy wool that gives warmth without weight. All kinds of lovely jackets in colorâ€"trim, with fancy stitched silk edgings, some with ribbon ties, may be purchased most reasonably.
