I f you never tried it you don’t know 
Imw cheaply and well one can redeem 
seemingly impossible places. Paint and 
paper nowadays can be bad for any 
price your pocket-book will allow, and the 
average woman is ingenious enough to

know what to do with them. I will 
admit the front entry almost beat me. 
The •re were two strips of paper running 
from the attic Hour, to the first floor. I 
got a short, 20 foot ladder, pasted my pa 
per and mounted A girl neighbor sal on 
the lower rounds, and was duly impressed 
with the fact that she was on no ac¬ 
count to move. I got the whole thing 
done, lint I came near breaking my neck- 
two or three times. That is, of course, 
an unusually trying business, papering 
over stairs, etc. Another thing that has 
happened lately has tried my patience 
most terribly. First a big piece of plaster 
tumbled down over the stairs. We put 
boards across to hold the rest of it. It 
was beyond the first landing and doesn’t 
show from below much. I hen some more 
fell in father’s room and I gazed in 
despair. Blit when half a bushel fell cx-

actly before the front door it was the 
last straw. Father thinks it will be too 
expensive to repair properly, and very 
likely to happen all over again, as the 
house sways m the fierce gales of wind 
that sweep over the meadows from the 
range of hills two miles away. So I 
I lied to think of some inexpensive way of 
covering the unsightly spots. They give 
Buch an air of dreary neglect, glaring 
at you! I believe I shall buy a roll of 
white paper for $1.25, such as we use for 
the tables at the Grange suppers in place 
of tablecloth. I shall paste it on to the 
plastering and over the laths, renewing 
as it becomes soiled, or I am expecting 
company. There arc about 200 feet, three 
feet wide, in a roll. I recently visited a 
school chum, who is also a farmer’s 
daughter. She is blessed with electric 
lighting in the house and barns; hot 
water heating and all the conveniences. 
Needless for such fortunate mortals to 
serve on the Ways and Means Com¬ 
mittee. They only know from what w< 
tell them that necessity is the mother of 
invention. _ auaii k. colcohd. 
The Rural Patterns. 
No. 6570 will make a charming little 
frock for Spring wear. The dress con 
sisls of the waist and the skirt, which are 
joined and closed together invisibly at 
the hack. The waist is box plaited and 
arranged over a body lining which is fac 
cd to form the yoke. The sleeves also 
arc made over foundations and these 
foundations are faced to form the deep 
etiffs when full length is used. The skirt 
is box plaited and finished with a hem. 
I he quantity of material required for the 
medium size (It) years) is Ct'/j yards 27. 
'1 yards :ui or iiVj yards •) t inches wide 
with Vi yard of all over lace for the yoke, 
5 /i yards of handing, yf\ yards of all over 
lace if long sleeves arc used. The pat¬ 
tern 5570 is cut in sizes for girls of (5, 
H, lo and 12 years of age; price, 10 cents 
I he attractive little princess dress con 
.sisls of body lining, which is faced In 
form the yoke and on which the tucked 
and shirred portion is arranged, and the 
skirt. I he skirt is hemmed and lucked 
at its lower edge and shirred at the upper 
and joined to the waist. The pretty 
sleeves also are lucked and gathered at 
their edges and are finished with hands. 
I he quantity of material required for 
the medium size (10 years) is 5 yard 
27, t'/j yards ;i(5 or \\% yards <11 inches

yards of lace for frills. The pattern 5585 
18 cut in sizes for girls of 0, 8, 10 and 
12 years of age; price, 10 cents. 
The caps figured will he found very use¬ 
ful patterns. The two-piece cap con¬ 
sists of the head portion and the crown, 
which are joined one l<> the other and 
can he finished with the rovers or without 
as may he liked. The one-piece cap 
is shirred to form the crown and them 
.shirtings can he drawn tip by means <*f 
ribbons inserted in casings or simply 
formed l>y gathers as liked. There is a 
seam at the centre back of the head por¬ 
tion which can he joined or tied together 
at tile edges, this latter plan being by fat-

the better one when washable material 
is used, as the cap can then lie laid open 
quite smooth and fiat and laundered with 
perfect ease. It also allows a choice of 
a plain finish or the rovers and the rovers 
for either cap can he cut on the outlines 
illustrated. The quantity of material re 
united for the medium size (I year) is, 
for either cap /x yard of material 21 or 
•)4t yard 30 inches wide with I'j yard of 
rnlfiing. 'File pattern 5571 is cut in sizes 
for children of 6 months, I and 2 years of 
of age; price, l<» cents. 
It seems like the mere hyperbole of a 
jealous and disappointed spirit to affirm 
that the corrupt practices of the unjustly 
rich are less harmful than their benevo¬ 
lences, hut the statement will hear argu 
Itlcnt and furnish much reason for a lie 
lief in its accuracy. It is because this 
benevolence tends to create in the popular 
mind confusion on a matter of morals 
concerning which we cannot afford to 
have confusion. We cannot afford to he 
lieve that the seizing of special and tin 
just privileges, or the use of corrupt prae 
tires or oppression, by which enormous 
wealth is increasingly acquired, may hr 
excused or palliated by public gift or pri 
vate benevolence or by generosity, how 
ever bountiful. We cannot afford to let 
a delayed or partial restitution acquire a 
false glamour, and under a false name be 
come a substitute for common honesty.—
