Tfiefciaftodliste ByHaroldRinaldscaEbeTleia t'he Arrangement of the Bedroom. EVERT hostess should be com pelled to spend one day and night in her guest room at least once in every six months winter and summer. . The room in which a man or a woman habitually lives usually ar ranges itself for the comfort and efficiency of its occupant. . But the guest room frequently becomes the suitable subject of theoretical con sideration of the proper arrange ment of .furniture. In the first place, the bed should lie bo placed as to secure a good cur rent of air, and so that the light does not disturb a sleeper's eyes too early in the morning. A table for a lamp and book should stand by the head of the bed. There should be at least one really comfortable chair near a good light, and the dressing table should al ways be arranged bo that the per son sitting before it has a clear light by day or night. How many times has an unfortu nate woman guest found herself at a dressing table with a window di rectly behind her, and the only available light in the center of the room! When these absolute necessities cf arrangement are attended to, bal ance and beauty are the next con sideration. . If a day-bed is used, of course the question of balance is more easily solved because all the objects in the room more nearly approximate the same weight. '. A chaise longs and a desk add preatly to the charm of a bedroom. Then a desk light is needed and al ways a few books to give coziness. Bedrooms must, however, not be overcrowded. Rather a bed, a chair and a stand, only, than a medley of objects, however useful or beautiful, which rob the room- of its restful quality.

Ciy, Files Report. "With or without precedent, we believe conditions justify federal aid in rehabilitating civic proper ties in Astoria and thus enabling citizens to devote their . resources to recovery from private ss," said a telegram dispatched yesterday by the investigating committee which the City club recently sent to Astoria, to the Oregon delegation at Washington, D. C. A carefully prepared report of conditions in the Columbia river seaport was sub mitted by the -committee at yester day's luncheon meeting of the club at the Benson hotel. Full support of the war depart ment board's recommendation, re cently made after an exhaustive survey of the situation by united States engineers, also ' featured the telegram to Washington, which further explained that "the entire matter should be reconstruction and not a river and harbor project, since only limited quantities of dredged materials are needed." Dr. Thomas L. Eliot was the guest of honor at the meeting and de livered "A Christmas Message" to the members. Norman F. Coleman acted as chairman and a vocal solo by Miss Olga Ruff and instrumental solos by J. C. Abbett were musical features of the programme. TfiiiYoullLovir? Detachable Train.

(One tab is longer than the other.) Have the corresponding- parts of the fasteners concealed under buttons or orna ments on each shoulder. When you wish to wear the gown for the eve ning, fasten on the new long train. Buttonholes can be used instead of the snaps, if you wish. FLORA New Today in ihe Markets PORTLAND, Dec. 10. Dear Miss Tingle: "Will you kindly give a recipe for chess pie; also for stuffed beets baked? Thanking you, MRS. C. I HOPE you saw the replies to your other questions. Following are some chess pie recipes contributed by different cor respondents. Possibly one of them may be what you want. If not, write again, as I have, a number of others: Chess pie, No. 1. TTiree eggs, two-thirds cup sugar, one-hjalf cup butter (half cup milk may be added if not wanted so rich); beat butter to a cream, then add yolks and ugar Deaten to a froth with any desired flavoring; stir all together Tapidly and bake .in a rich crust. When done spread with the beaten whites, to which has been added three tablespons sugar and a little flavoring. Return to oven and lrown slightly. This makes one pie, which should be served imme diately. The oven should be mod erately hot and the pie requires short cooking, as this filling "can dies" easily, which is to be avoided. Sweet cream may be successfully substituted for the butter in same proportion. Chess pie. No. 2. One cup sugar, one and one-half cups butter, one half, cup walnuts, one -half cup CHRISTMAS cards and Christmas letters from distant friends are welcome, but of all holiday mes sages of good will, perhaps the Christmas telegram is the most per sonally appreciated. A telegram seems to pro've that the sender is not content to forward, an ordinary greeting, but is willing to go to the trouble and expense of telegraphic service to show his courtesy or af fection for the recipient of his friendly wishes. Regulation ten-word telegraphic messages may be worded thus: "Merry Christmas to you and yours from mine and me, "Health and wealth, unfailing cheer, Merry Christmas, glad New Year," or any other way the sender wishes to express himself. The telegraph companies have several stock forms of Christmas greetings from which a choice may be made, if desired. The sender should insist that the message .is not to be telephoned from a local telegraph office, but must be delivered in the form of a written telegram.
