THW CENT MRS. FRED SMITH. A Brave Life Saver and a Fearless and Successful Miner, On June 20, 1874, and June 18, 1878, congress provided for the award of gold medals to brave women who risk their lives by saving those of others from the terrors of the sea. There were silver medals also for instances where life had been saved by extreme brav ery, but the first class was to be award ed only when life had been saved with extreme peril to the rescuer In nearly thirty years only two of these gold medals have been awarded by the government he fir Miss | Ida lewis, 10 for more than twenty years has stood as aln 10 peerless heroine of America as the keeper of the Lime Rock light, Ten or el | years later the second was earned by Mrs Fred Smith (then Mrs. Edward White) whose rescue of three shipwrecked sailors at Copalis, Wasl stands out as the most desperately daring deed along the Pacific coast The heroic deed for which Mrs. Mar tha White was brought into promi. nence, not only in he vest, bot throughout the entire country, was per formed Jan } own unaided eff MRS.

There is never a fallure to meet demand, but it is not a home. A home exists for the comfort, happiness and bealth of the family I'here is no department of housekeeping that is not made to yleld to the needs of any mem ber. There Is never a crisis of temper if a meal is late or the convenience of a member demands a change in the hour. A few minutes—yea, even a number of minutes—spent In kindly converse in the morning, the call of a friend, or the sudden desire for an hour's outing, never seems to the homemaker a vio lation of the moral code. Dust does not cause a nightmare or disorder a dis play which love and charity agree to call nervousness. Not things, but souls, are the objects of the homemaker's care, She values peace more than sys tem, happiness more than regularity, content more than work accomplished Xet, with it all, her home, when she touches perfection, Is the essence of regularity, - It is this that makes home making an art. Useless Things In Homes, A woman whose home is noted for its beauty and restfulness sald in speaking the other day of the art of house furnishing that it would proba bly puzzle the Inhabitants of another planet to know what mode:n homes were Intended for, | “They have no beauty that we should . desire them.” she observed, “and the last thing thaf seems to have been con sidered In thelr arcangement Is the convenience of the occupants, To judue merely from appearances, one would think that they were designed to serve as showrooms for furniture and bl brace and funey work and that th mates were only there on sufferan because they bad to have some refug from the wind and weather and no other domlietle could be found Most women treat thelr homes as store houses or museums, and the wore things they oy crowd nto them thie better they pleased hey prefer tO have the things where they can be seen If possible, but when no mors space Is left and not a corner is avall even photegraph or a chins y Why not make the home a place fort and restfulness 7 Fhe Trusiwarthy Girl, The Houschound Household (leansing (ream ie or A Neat Sweeping (ap Tissue Bullder papier mach They do not break y, even with an ordinary fall.

See to It, then, that the rooms, are aired every day for their | benefit, if not for your own. Do not al low a direct draft which might hurt them, but change the air in the room dally Boston Pincushion, A convenlence for the tollet table Is a “Boston pincushion” It Is a four inch cube of white satin, stiff only on the bottom The five sides are filled each with pins of some particular col or put in in star or diamond shape Fhe Coffeepot., To clean the coffeepot fill it with wa ter, put In a pinch of borax and’ a plece of hard soap and set on the stove, letting It boli for half an hour.

It is frequently stated that granite fronware cannot be mended after if leaks and =o must be thrown away jut It Is possible to mend It in the kame way as tin by soldering Sometimes the paper on the botton of a cake is dificult to remove, Warm the cake slightly, and it will peel off quite easily Milk Is better for being kept over night in small tion than If a large quan tity Is kept over In one vessel, Wash marble with ammonia and wa ter rather than with soap and water, PRETTY AND USEFUL. A Homemade Dressing Case and Washstand Combined, Sometimes a pretty plece of furniture may be made of the most unpromising material, but in sach cases the work must be done carefully and thoroughly In order to insure the best result poss ble. Now, a handy girl made the dress ing table nud washstand shown below, and she started with nothing better than a dry goods box that gomebody gave her First she measured the bog to be sure that it wns exactly the right size to meet her needs as to height, depth and width. These points having been de termined ro her satisfaction, she fas tened to the back of the box an upright skeleton frame from which to hang » mirror and drapery. Just below the mirror she placed a semicircular shelf made of a bucket cover. The three shelves Inside the box were set at the proper distances apart to accommodate pitcher, washstand, ete, And right here was where the handy girl showed good sense, for she hi ie top DRESSING CARE AND WASHSTAND between two strips of wood so tha washbowl stand and out tual use Y he compl neatly tacked 11 § | Lace and Yelvet Sticky Eyes ing wit] This thes vigor eyes nt lashes.

The Joy of seeing stars, ete, is a limited one, while the flatten ing of the eyeball, likely to result, will cause permanent trouble in after life Graceful Dress, Dress reform principles are bound to assert themselves from time to time, but the unsightly outfits seen lately in Germany resulted in the arrest of the wearers. The agitators must needs obtain the services of an artist, and even at that the ideally beautiful may not always be achieved in heavier ma terials, for it Is only in the soft, cling ing fabric of evening dress that nat ural grade Is possible. To disguise a good figure and make a bad one worse is about all that is ever achieved by the dress reformers ’ An Obesity Cure, It is claimed by knowing ones that a new obesity cure which makes the pa- tient do her own massaging has been very successful. The hips are rubbed down vigorously with both hands, stop. ping for fifteen minutes, This stirs up the circulation and reduces the hips, It is a simple treatment in comparison to the usual gymnastios prescribed, A Sponge For Rabhbers, Mothers who have children going to school will find that a small sponge kept on purpose for cleaning shoos is a great convenlence.
