Dainty and Feminine Are the Ruf-
fles Juet Now Being So Generously
Made Uee Of.
As ruffles become wore and more
fashionable on feminine garb they be-
gin to make a reappearance in fem-
inine boudoirs. Ruffled window cur-
tains, bed-spreads and pillow covers
are replaciug the straight bordered ef
fects of the last few years and ml
lady's room promises to become as
gayly frilled a sanctum as it was s
half century ago
Ruffled pillow cases are especially
dainty aud feminine and they give the •
final touch of luxury to the bed If
one does not desire to sleep ou the
be rallied pillow s they may be ex-
changed at night for smaller pillows
in plain linen slips, or the ruffled slips
may be removed and put en again next
morning This takes but a moment if
the slip covers are roomy enough to
go over the pillow without tugging
Two or three snap buttons tewed
along the opening under the ruffles
will hold the dainty covers smoothly
la place and may be unfastened in a
twinkling at night.
Rather narrow ruffles give the best
effect—two and a half inches should
be the limit of width—and the hems
should be very narrow also Make
the ruffle full enough to be fluted by
the laundress and the effect will be
very crisp and smart. Such pillow
covers should be square, rather than
oblong, and the pillow may be stuffed
into the square, the snap buttons
holding it In place. Of course the ruf
ties must go around all four sides of
each cover, and the bed thuB dressed
will need no pillow shams, bolster roll
or other device to hide the sleeping
pillows from view.

1 cotton or woolen goods without hurt-
ing them or spoiling the color Two
good-sized potatoes are sufficient for

THE BANKING HABIT.
is universally conceded to be a good habit, and a good habit,
has been defined by someone as, "Yesterday's Achievements
Taking the Sting from Today's Toil"
This definition states the exact truth, based upon the
experience of thousands of depositors throughout the woi la.
While you are forming this exceptionally koo>1 habit, you
are accumulating a fund for future use. Life is worth liv ing
when you have money in the bank — it gets monotonous
when you are broke. ,
Examine our statement which appears lnthitis^Lie, then
come in and open an account with us.

Meaning of Bronze Horses* Hoofs.
Equestrian statues on the battlefield
of C.ettysburg all follow a general rule
which sculptors have adopted as an ar-
bitrary convention^ If two feet of the
horse are in the air the rider was
killed. If one foot is lifted from the
ground the rider was wounded. If all
four feet are planted on the pediment
th^n it signifies that the subject of the
statue was not hurt.
Indian Matting.
Having discovered an excellent way
to clean matting. I pass It on to
others. Beat the matting first to re-
move all dust, then take It out of
doors and scrub It well with bran wa
ter or with water to which a small
quantity of salt has been added Soap
has a tendency to turn matting yel-
low, and should not be used After
the matting has been put through
this process. It should be rinsed with
cold water, rubbed as dry as possible
with a clean cloth and hung on a line
to complete the drying.
Box In Bathroom.
A shirtwaist box in the bathroom
will fill a want that is often felt. Very
often the room Is too small for both
a chair and a hamper for soiled clothes
A shirtwaist or utility box will answer
both purposes and look better. If not
needed for soiled clothes It will do
for clean towels.
Cream Pumpkin Pudding.
Prepare pumpkin as for pies. Place
j pumpkin between two slices of bread,
'with whipped cream on top. This is
t an excellent dish.
