A cupboard for the storage of blankets. It la Just a hole in the wall with a door that lets down, keeping the blankets from getting soiled on the floor. It has a rack which pulls out and consists of rods upon which the blankets hang. Inasmuch as they hang vertically with a slight space between them, and since they are so easily accessible, there is no reason why they shouldn't be inspected several times a week and sprayed with some moth killing fluid. Top Hinged The blanket cupboard will project into a room which will very probably be a bedroom.

Let's transform it into a dressing table with closets on either side. The top is hinged and may be lifted up and the blankets taken out in this room as well as in the hall. The closet doors are mirrored and are hinged on opposite sides, so that you may open them, stand between them and view yourselves fore and aft. One closet should be equipped with rods for hanging clothes and the other with shelves for shoes, boxes of stockings and hats. Imagine what a very lovely room this would be if you were to paper it in cream colored wall paper, with little bouquets of lavender, pink and blue if you were to stain the woodwork a mellow maple, lay a moss green rug on the floor and hang yellow draperies at the window.

There would be Spring in this room all the year around.

Woman Seeks Friend Dear Helen Worth: I am terribly lonesome but definitely not "on the make" for a husband. I have plenty of women friends but they are either spinsters or widows and I do get so lonely at times, just to tuck rr.7 arm in a good coat sleeve and go to see ft movie.

I have been told that through you many wonderful friendships have been made. I haven't the iniative to put myself in a position to form new acquaintances and though I am a nurse, and get about a great deal. I never seem to be able to make the right contacts. I'm not crazy about other women's husbands my own died 10 years ago, and I've never replaced him. But as the years pass I realize one needs the companionship of a man friend as well as women.

I am 50, have no children. Am a Protestant, like movies, music, plays, books, baseball, motoring and boating. Graduated from a New England preparatory school. Hope I haven't bored you. MARION.

You have had some simple and complex problems and. some curious ones, too I am thinking of the high button shoes! but, you always manage to solve them. Hence, I have come to you to help me in mine. I have promised to get a dressmaker's form, size 14 or 16, for my cousin, a young lady of 18, the oldest in a family of five. Because of financial distress, she had to leave high school where she studied dress design, the career she has picked out for herself.

With the dressmaker's form she could con-timip her work at home, for there are relatives and neighbors who would give her work, designing and making clothes for them. I have been told you can get them for $1 or $1.50. I have tried a section in Manhattan where they are abundant, but there the price is too high for my pocketbook. I can provide transportation. Perhaps you or some of your readers can help me.

Be astar at jelly-making To make jelly clear, tender and sparkling observe these three rules: Drain juice through cloth instead of iqueezing it through cook your jelly very fast and be careful to use a pure cane, quick-dissolving granulated sugar I Beauty Lore Now Reduced To a Science By EVE LAWRENCE BEFORE reduced beauty to a thing of formulas and analysis it was a little more romantic than it is today and lots more mysterious. The real mystery Is that women could look even normal after some of the old-time beauty treatments they underwent. The ancients explained beauty as coming from the gods. But even then women were wise to the fact that the gods were far away from this very earthy earth so while they did pay homage to Venus, they had a few home-made helps of their own.

Poppea had her daily bath of milk; ladies of Rome used gold dust to make their hair blond: perfumed oils were used profusely by both men and women. Such treatments were not entirely without common sense, for oils and milk are helpful to the skin, and gold dust lends a harmless if very expensive glint to the hair. But later on some curious beauty hints came to life that were purely imaginative. Dew Facial Is Out The Fountain of Youth was a pleasant fiction that was taken seriously once upon a time. By a man, of course.

That miraculous water was too far distant to really intrigue women. But they were impressed with the idea that bathing the face in May dew was one way to insure a beautiful complexion. Generally, after a few trials, it was given up. And you've heard older women insist that hair should not be cut except In the first quarter of the moon so that the hair could grow again along with the moon. All these superstitions seem nrettv amusing nowadays when we don't have to follow beauty aids blindly.

For instance, we know that instead of painstakingly collecting a bottle-ful of grapevine juice and using it to make our hair curly, as grand mother said it would, it's much simpler tj have a permanent wave. There are a few old beauty beliefs still going strong. No amount of fact seems to eradicate them. Some women firmly believe that cold cream encourages the growth of hair. A chemical analysis an test will not change their minds about it.

The bed is a couch design in blue-white enameled wood reminiscent of the divans used by Cleopatra, except that this new bed has a very high half-ellipse right side upholstered in heavy white satin. This high side is not part of the couch, but fastens to the wall in front of which the bed stands. The rest of the furnishings in the room are in blue and silver, while the rugs are white and the curtains are white georgette crepe, trimmed in white cellophane. Miss Virginia Martin, aged 18. of Salt Lake City, Utah, is an efficient stenographer, despite the fact that she has only one arm.

SNELL Gold may be a highly convenient basis for exchange, but there have Deen periods in our history when people got along without it. The discovery of gold had considerable to do with the settling of the country, but long before the era of the gold rush furs were the lure that drew adventurous spirits.

Fine trading possibilities kept the early trappers pushing the frontier westward. In 1763 two young Frenchmen traveled up the "muddy river" from New Orleans to establish a new post from which they could carry on their trading. This became St. St. Louis and for many years was the great center for the fur-trading business.

It was undoubtedly the hardy and daring spirit of the pioneer trappers that saved the great Northwest for the United States.

But the Missouri Fur Company sent scouts westward from St. Louis and finally their travels brought them into contact with trappers from the Pacific coast and this whole territory was united.

In those days the coonskin was a natural medium of exchange. You bought a bag of flour for so many coonskins. A house was sold for fo many coonskins. It is said that the old muzzle-loading muskets which had such long barrels were made that way because the Indiaas were sold these guns for a pile of beaverskins as high as the musket. 'Ant Flowers' Here's an interesting note from Mrs.

W. M. S. of Brooklyn. She writes: "Did you ever hear of 'ant flowers'? I saw them in Wool- worth's, near Caton two for 10 cents.
