In the Corner
We Try to. Finish Them
Nowadays

EOPLE don’t think so much
P about furnishing the corners‘

of their rooms now as they
once did. apparently. .Tbere used
to be cozy corners. Do you re-
member them? A deeply cushion-
ed seat was fitted into the corner
and then spread with a_ Bagdad
rug. There were cushion! galore
covered with more or less Turkish
looking materials. and behind the
scat fabrics of Oriental appear-
;mce with Turkish scimiters and
other weapons peacefully fastened
to the wall. Long before that
there were corner what-note. in
which our great grandames kept
such treasures as the deer depart-
ed canary. all nicely stuffed and.
supplied with bright glass eyes;

baby's first shoe pain with gilt
paint; a miniature a he of lib-
arty, the gift of so one who

had seen the original-'Lihings like
flint.
Old-time Corners

In times remoter than that even.
there were charqu corner china
closets. Two. and sometimes four
corners of a dining room would
be fitted with these cabinets put
in as part of the woodwork of the
room. and this practical and deco-
rative trick has been revived by
many house-builders of the press
out time. . . -

Perhaps one reason why we sci
often fail to think of the furnish-l
ing of the‘corners of a room is
because in so many rooms the
radiator or steam pipe occupies
this place of honor. Moreover.
doors or windows are often set so
near the corner that it would be
out of the question to make use;
of it in any other way. '

But when it is possi
excellent plan to make use of the.
corners of the room in some way.;
especially when the rooms are;
small. as they are in most apart-l
ments and most small houses now-
adays. A piece of furniture that
occupies the corner of a room does
not seem to diminish its roominess
in any way. You will find mov-
able ldtchen closets and cabinets
made. for the corner. and for the
bathroom corner there are laun-
dry baskets and cabinets. There
are wall cabiiiets that can be
placed in a corner over a bathtub
or cabinets that rest on the floor.
giving room for towels. supplies
and toilet articles. Because they
fit into the corner they may often
be used in a room which would
not afford space for the regulao
tion cabinet. '

 

Book Cases

Did you ever see a corner book
case? Perhaps not. and perhaps
you have wondered how to make
two book cases meet in a corner.
Now one of the manufacturers of
sectional bookcases has brought
out a unit that fits in the corner.
making an excellent place to
store books in a small room.

For the small room there are
corner wardrobes. but if you can~
not afford one of these you can
get a carpenter to fit the corner
of your room with two shelves at
the height of the ordinary ward-
robe shelf. From beneath the
lower shelf you can attach hooks
to hold clothes hangers. and you
can keep hats and boxes on the
shelves. A brass rod can be at-
tached oh the topmost shelf so
that a. cretonne curtain can be
hung. which will hide completely
the contents of the impromptu cor-
ner closet. If you have to have a
wash place in your bedroom. and
want an inexpensive stand. get a
carpenter to place a three~corner
>helf at about the height of the
usual stand. and have another
shelf of the same size placed about
seven or eight feet above the floor.
Have a rod attached to the top
shelf. The curtain should be fixed
with small brass rings so that it
will slide back and forth with no
difficulty. In this way your wash
things are quite hidden when not

in use.
For Desk

A nicely finished wooden shelf
fastened in the corner at the

height of a writing table makes a .

good substitute for a desk. If you
like you may have a very much
smaller three-cornered shelf placed
about two feet above. ~0n this
may be placed one or two neces-
sary reference books. a clock. flow-
ervase or other ornament.

A three-cornered board attached
to the wall at the-height of a chair
makes a nice seat when it is cov-

Do You Know:—

HAT ft is considered; by the
smart young woman of today.

as a great social emol- to use
face powder that does not match
one's perfume. or face cream that is
not scented to go with the other
cosmetics? To use violet talcum
powder and a French bouquet sachet
would be almost as bad as wearing
a fuchsia-colored hat with a henna-
colored coat.
That this combining of the now
very Popular and much in evidence
fuchsia tones with henna. is new re-
garded as one of the greatest of-

fences by women Who have a well.
developed sense of color?

 

 

That, no up-to-dato bedroom is
completely furnished nowadays with.
out a bedside bookshelf. and now
that hanging bookshelves have be-
come so attractive this bedside book-

ble it is an PM" my “'9" be one of the hanglns'

sort? There should be room for not
many more than a dozen orso books.
and the books should be changed
from time to time.

That all sorts of interesling Jew;
eled and metal objects are used now
to make the top little ornaments
that screw into the top of the shade
frames for electric lamps? Lovely
pieces of Chinese Jade are mounted
on metal and made into these orna-
ments? Sometimes there are little
figures of Chinese dictics cast in
bronze for this purpose. ’

 

 

That it is a fad of some women to
have a few odd antique rings. chains
and other bits of Jewelry’lying about
as ornaments or playthings on table
or desk top? One woman has a
charming little plate of inlaid silver
in which to place these bits of old—
ume leoutery. Sometimes as she
roads. or talks or merely sits and
thinks she handles and admires
these pretty things. which she would
not find it to her taste to wear.

ON THE, SAFE SIDE

To be on the same side make a
rule that any personal or social
letter that is not an answer to a
letter of your own deserves an an-
swer and that answer should be
dispatched within ten days.

In keeping up what one calls a
correspondence with a friend out
of town a longer interval may in.
tervene. Remember that it would
be better for you never to carry
on any of these correspondences at
all than to neglect the imperative
letters of social obligation .and
courtesy.

Etiquette requires that any in~
vitation on which R. S. V. P. is
written should be answered within
a day or two of receipt. that any
invitation save that for a church
wedding or a tear—when R. s. V-
P. is not engraved on the invita-
tion—requires a prompt answer.
Etiquette requires that the an~

1:113 Pajama Wins
Out

'l' may be that before many years
the Mama will have become as
nearly universal e. sleeping gar-

ment for women as it is for men.
and the feminine nightgown may be
as much of a back number as the
masculine nightehlrt. At any rate.
an ever increasing number of wém-
en's pajamas is sold in most of the
shops and apparentily 'the number of
those who are converted to the wear-
ing of pajamas ia a large one. Girls
in schools and college are almost
sworn to the Deana. considering the
old-time nightgown quite Victorian.

Not only are pajamas used for
sleeping garments. but they are in-
creasingly Popular as negligeee and
lounging garments. One of the
leading French dressmaker. who
enjoys a wide reputation for his in-
teresting negligees. recently showed
almoal no robes in this part of his
collection. choosing pajamas almost
entirely. That was. of course. with
the smart women for whom he do-
signs : there was almost no demand
for any other sort of neglig-c cos-
tume.

Sometimes the pajama serve; both
as sleeping garment and negligee
and it is partly for this reason. they
any. that the college and school girls
prefer them to the old-time night-
gown. Meantime the pajama is be-
coming more and mere important in
women's wardrobes. They arr made
of interesting and unusual fabrics.
and show clever trimming and fin—
ishing. One very interesting suit is
of perigee with garden flowers em-
broidered on the legs of the trousers
and on the coat portion. having the

A" Soda Fannie;
At Home

U can really'have a source of
delightful beverages at home
if you want it.

And surely the youthful-and
probably the ouch-members of
your family wilL vote in favor of
this idea.

That is. a. home soda fountain.

Of course. you don't actually need
the marble-topped counter. but you
do need some of the equipment
And the point is that you can buy
the necessary equipment and then
can turn out delicious beverages in
your own kitchen or pantry.

To begin with. paper cups or also
good substantial glass tumblers that
even children will not break easily
—yet attractive enough not to be
repulsive.

(If compr. straws ,gaiorc, Surn-
iner drinks. at least to children. are
much more delicious when sipped
through straws. Paper napkins, too.
for occasional sticky fingers.

Then. a bottle of ,soda water al-
ways on ice. And plenty of fruit
liners. Grape Juice. pineapple Juice.

it sometimes happens that there
are more npplcs in the house than
you have immediate use for. Even
if you have a good cold cellar in
which to keep apples in barrels. it
sometimes happens that the apples
show signs of not keeping as well
as expected. Moreover. there are
times when a surplus of apples in
the market can be boulllt for a
reasonable price. or a motor trip in
the country may make it possible
for you to buy a bargain in apples
if you have
more apples than you need grime-
diatel)’. remember that there are
several ways to preserve apples to
good advantage. Here are some
that may prove of use to you:
Apple Preserves

These are made of sour apples.
pared. cored and quartered. Weigh
them and use pound for pound of
granulated sugar and apples. To
each pound of apples allow a cup
of water and the Juice of two

Boil the sugar and water. add the
lemon and apples and simmer until
the apples are tender. Seal in jars
and put in a cool place until wanted.
These preserves are deliciotl m

with spice or fruit cake.

Applo Jolly
Wash apples and slice them with-
out removing the akin or needs.
Barely cover the fruit with water
and cook slowly until the apples

a. Jelly bag over night. To one pint
of juice allow a pound of granu-
lated sugar. Let the Juice come to

For the older child—the six-year-
old—orange and pineapple Juice
mixed. orange and grape Juice
mixed. the Juice of grapefruit added
to orange. are quite wholesome and
add to the deliciousnesa of things.

Milk shakes are as good and as
wholesome as the fruit drinks. You
can buy chocolate malted milk or
plain malted milla The plain malt-
ed milk. mixed with fresh milk. may
be slightly sweetened. if you want.
and served with a dash of grated
nutmeg—Just a dash.

And you can make chocolate
syrup to have on hand for plain
chocolate milk shakes.

You can. if you wish to invest in
it. buy an electric milk-shake m3-
er. Just like those at regular
fountains. it costs a bit. to be sure.
but it can be made to give a, great
deal of wholesome delight.

the usual chance of colliding with a
neighbor or running into stree.
You can. moreover. walk against the
rain with your umbrella pulled down
in from of you and still see where
you are going.

The handle and the ferrule of the
modern umbrella carry out a single
decorative scheme. if the handle is
of red gnllalith. so is the ferrule. if
a fat little wooden puppy perches
on the handle end. so does one finish
off the ferrule-or else the same
wood of w h ther puppy is made
is used for t e ferrule.

 

lost umbrellas now have straps
of some sort to slip over the wrist.
Sometimes the strap comes out of
the top of the handle. sometimes it
is a ails piece of leather fastened on
the side of the handle like the ban-
dle of a cup. Bomeflmestit is a
metal ring. sometimes a loop of sill;
cord. sonaetimes a thong of leather.
