Scaled Down | | ‘ The problem of the lady in the averâ€" age house who sets out to kliy herself 'something new and nice in the furniâ€" ture departments is made easier by the coâ€"operative efforts of certain manuâ€" facturers and dealers who have done much thinking and experimenting to provide furniture to suit the scale of | today‘s homes.

Hassocks that slide under tables and into corners are lHikewise grand space savers, In bedrooms hasâ€" socks with fringe all around are nice in place of straight or supper chairs if space is limited. ‘ _ _ABOUT CHAIRSâ€"Here again avoid the heavier overstuffed types for small rooms. You‘ll find just as comfortable upholstered models in less obtrusive sizes. Don‘t forget that you can still get rockers and that they take up a very small amount of space for their comfort. And we have a friend who has some simple dark stained wicker arm chairs with foot rest hassocks that are the last word in comfort yet light to lift and very conservative of space. Another point about them is â€"that they could be pointed in the same colour as the rug or wall to make them recede still further. And by ‘the way, if youri furniture is too big for the room, here‘s something that can be done about it, upholster or slip cover it in the rug coldur .and see how it recedes and merges right into the picture. Or if it‘s a pliece such as a sofa that stands against the wall the same good resultsI can be had by covering it in a ton.e the same as the wall colour. good for small places.

These may be simply shelves or they may be rather commoâ€" dious cupboards with a compartment at the bottom and shelves above. Very decorative we might add. Welsh dressers are a good solution of the spaceâ€"saving problem also. Breakfast book cases are available now in smaller sizes so that they don‘t look too imposing for an average room. There are innumerable little trick Handsome and Handy ABOUT CABINETSâ€"Have them not too heavy looking but as capacious as possible so that you can put lots in them. A secretary scaled down for an apartment is an ideal piece of this kind because of all its various utilities. Highboys are handsome and handy. Little chests of drawers can be infiniteâ€" ly useful in place of night tables or end tables. A pair of corner cupboards in a small dining room or dingtte are usually much more graceful looking than a big buffet or china cabinet protruding inâ€" to the floor space of the room. Corner cupboards, incidentally, are not a bad . _ ABOUT TABLESâ€"Forâ€" occasional uses, nests of tables are ‘the thing beâ€" cause they tuck themselves away so neatly when nof in use. Dropâ€"leaf type of tables come in all sizes from small coffee tables to big dining tables with end tables and the like thrown in. The cleverest dining table we know about for making itself big enough for a party mthout gymnastics is a drop leaf Which stands against the wall between meals and does nicely as a console. It‘s a classic ‘type of 18th centiury table A pair of serving tables with drawâ€" ers for silver and a pair of knife urns on each do graciously in place of a buffet because they will not only take up less space but will give a lighter effect in a small room.

"I know I haven‘t much longer to live, old man," he said. "Before I go I‘ve got a confession I must make. During our years of partnership I‘ve swindled you out of thousands of pounds.

(Copyright, 1937. by Elizabcth Macâ€" Rae Boykin). Speaking about scale of furniture brings up the question of how to place furniture to best advantage. Miss Boyâ€" kin has a bulletin on this subject "Where to Place the Furnitureâ€"and Why" which covers the salient points and suggests ways of solving perpelxing problems. This bulletin will be sent on receipt of a stamped, selfâ€"addressed envelope. There‘s a trend now to do as the decorators do and buy separate piecces rather than sets of furniture. The leading stores make this possible by their well ensembled groups of related furniture that can be used together according to your need and spacz2. This is especially important when you‘re thinking in terms of a small home and simply haven‘t space for a whole set without stuffocating. ABOUT MUSICâ€"The new small pilanos are ideal for modern use and they are as graceful as old time spinets and melodians. But contemporary and traditional in style. The new compact Eut well designed radios that tuck themselves into tables, desks and chests are equally practical and pleasing. ABOUT DRESSERSâ€"This is someâ€" thing you can manage without if you are short on space. Use a good sized chest of drawers, taller than the dressâ€" er, but with a mirror in sight for the man of the house to lock at himself in. The drawer space here can be shared, then you ‘can get a dressing table for yourself, a very small one to fit in a left over wall space. With a pretty petticoat, it will add decoratively to the room without encroaching. Better not try this scheme unless you have a long mirror on a wall or a door though or you‘ll miss the dresser mirror for lookâ€" ing at yourself full view. Fortunately though a separate mirror doesn‘t take up floor space! Twin beds are pretty bad eaterâ€" uppers of space in the average room. Do a bit of measuring before commitâ€" ting yourself to them. If you‘ still want them, but don‘t feel you can spare the space, investigate those that have a single headboard but separate springs and mattresses which come apart for making the ‘bed. At least they save that space between the two beds. Not For a Steady Dict We‘re sure you know all there is to know about studio couches and the clever sofa beds now on the market. They‘re fine for occasional guests and all right if that‘s the only bed you can give floor space. But if you have a separate bsdroom, don‘t try to get along all the time with a daybed or studio ccuch, for a real bed is so much more comfortable. ABOUT BEDSâ€"Don‘t buy a full canopied bed for a small room. If you want a canopled effect, use a drapery just at the head of the bed. Low head and footboards, or no footboard at all, tend to minimize the size of a bed. Or an Empire type of bed with head and footboards of the same height can be placed lengthwise against one wall of the room rather than out in the floor . . . this will save loads of space and a ; canopy draped from the wall above will make a small room into a queen‘s f chamber. | cabinets that will be delightful and versatile too. 6.

The bees give us honey, the silkworm spins its beautiful product, lac insects provide shellac and sealing wax. Many insects are the foes of noxious plants, others act as scavengers. Earthworms work the soil to the high advantage of the cultivator, others carry pollen for the necessary fertilization of plants, still others are useful drugs. The product of a variety of moths are caterpillars very destructive of plant life. The hereditary enemy of the caterpillar is a brilliant greenâ€" colciured bettle brought ‘to America from Sardinia. In a short lifetime this beetle is most active. It has been known to travel in a lifetime of 72 hours, ninge thousand and fiftyâ€"eight feet. Its speed varies from 3 to about 5 feet per minute. Caterpillars have a hard life of it when this beetle gets among them. The tiny beetle called the ladybird is one of the little bugs. The native home of the Sen Jose scale is in Northâ€" ern China where it lives and breeds on a small haw apple growing wild. The ladybird is also there, feeding on the scaleâ€"causing insect. Once imported t7 America for its parasitic activity against other insects, rearing of the ladybird is now a Californian industry.
