Page 6. THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, BELLEFONTE, PA. JUNE 6, 1907. Forever Young Is the Sweet Girl Graduate. UNE, and the month of wedding bells graduation cereowgonies, finds now batches of brides and sweet girl graduates each time the year rolls round to the summer solstice, The years may come and the years may go, but the bridal processions and the commencement essays and orations and diplomas and bouquets keep on for ever, Not so very, very long ago there were no such sweet things as girl graduates. The boys went to college and got their sheepskins at commencemeat season, and thelr sisters and sweethearts ad- mired and applauded. But they never dreamed of such things for themselves, -no, indeed. It would have been quite improper. A young woman in those days was circumscribed by a great many rules of propriety, and a college education—well, that was something never heard of and for that reason of course absurd. But times have changed, as Cicero remarked in language with which all college graduates are sup posed to be famliliar, and now a girl may not only graduate from a college, but she may go through three or four graduating functions par ticipates in that most impressive and solemn of all, the march to the altar In days only instit ment sea ercises, find grammar uating neans and oftent before she function me by th olleges were the [Ty utions Ww GIRL GRADUATE IN ACADEMI MORTARDOARD CAP A BWEET magic wand, nor is it asually In such matters a case but father.” A paterfamilias who has four or five daughters, not to mention sons, who must all do the customary thing when they graduate from the public school, the high school or sem inary and the college and who, a Ii tle later perhaps, m Hipp with suitable wedding trousseanx has a task on his hands for which he needs the support of a steady income and a good bank account Realizing the demands on the family purse which this season necossitates the principal of a school in Charles town, Mnss ide a sugges tion to the graduating very family, he had a good many old rabbers lying around awalting dep osition in the ash barrel and If these were collected they might bring some thing.

A girl who gets a di ploma from a college may pay less attention to her graduating dress than she who says formal farewell to a ngs school or seminary, for at many ges attended by women senlors wear the traditional mortarboard cap and academic gown on commencement day, and this makes for democracy all around. The ample folds of a costume sacred to scholarship and worn by men and women alike conceal that which i» worn inside, and rich girls and poor may receive thelr degrees In simple shirt walst suits, The other functions tneident to commencement week at a college are not In the case of a woman 80 conducive to simplicity In dress, and for these a graduating girl may need a different gown for nearly every day of the seven. in, | A VETERAN SCHOLAR.

Several times a year the average howmewife finds herself confronted with a stopped up sink Amateur efforts at opening the drainpipes are unavall ing. Trained skill must be called In, and commotion and plumber’s bills fol. low This Is of the many instances where an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. There are kitchens to ich the plumber’s visit is almost ns rare as a one a little care thelr number might easily Increase and multiply. Siok stoppage Is usually caused by grease, sometimes by coffee grounds and In ninety-nine eases out of a han dred by carelessness, See that your plates are scraped free from grease and scraps before they go Into the dish pan. Insist that coffee grounds shall find their way into the garbage can rather than the sink. Keep a small, stiff scrubbing brush and an iron | ak scraper with a rubber edge near {at hand and enforce their use after each dishwashing time, If these few sltuple rules are obayed, If none of the greasy water in vegetables have been cooked, gra or other greasy liquids are | the sink-and It Is not the | theme~If the pipes are scalded | with clean water and plenty of | mon washing soda, you run very risk of stoppage.

Hiding the Radiator. An unsightly steam radiator has been thoroughly eliminated and disguised by putting an ordinary shelf on iron braces about a foot above it and hang- lng a curtain In front. The top of the shelf Is covered with denim or burlap, and curtains are tacked at each end that hang straight to the floor. The curtain across the front Is hung from a slender brass rod and may be pulled to one side when more heat is needed. The shelf extends some distance be- yond the ends of the heater and is used for books and pretty bits of china, Mending Mackintoshes. An excellent mending, cement for mackintoshes is made by dissolving some shreds of pure india rubber in beneine, which will form a stiff paste, Spread the injured part of the mack- Intosh on something flat, apply a little of the paste to the part to be mended and leave until the cement is harden- ed. This may also be very satisfac- torlly employed In mending rubber gloves Qiling Floors. When olling floors, use a woolen cloth rather brush.
