"Maybe ours Isn't worked right, hut from what I lienr I guess a good many of 'cm arc like ours, wblcli in In tho school yard. Why, say! Wo live light across from tho school, and what with the nolso of tho kids, it's no uho to go to bed early, Tho boys and girls kcop It up till 11 at night, and when a innn haa to get to work early In tho morn ing hn needs hln night's sleep. Seems to me S o'clock's plenty Into enough for boys and girls to bo away fiom homo. They'd ought to be In bed by then, even If they're as old as fifteen. "Still, maybe they'd bo as noisy It they played In the streets around tholr own homes. Soma people ain't got no control over their children, or don't want to, and don't earn liow they keep pcoplo awake at night. If everybody stayed up till midnight It wouldn't bo so bad but 'twould bo bad enough. My ynungstcra are all In bod by 0, you can Just guess) Dut when they hear tho others outside they think I'm not treating 'cm right, and they ought to have Homo fun, too. I wish to good ness tlieio was a curfew liuro like In my homo town. " ' "It's all just play, play, play, and fun, fun, fuu for tho kids theso daytj. And If you set uny of 'em to work around tho house, there's always neighbors or other klda ready to talk to them and tell 'cm they ain't treated right. I want my children to huvo fun, too, and tho littlest ones play all day, Hut I guess when a boy or girl goU to be nine or ten years old, they're big enough to help with tho dishes and tho dusting and eoino of the other chores, and It's Just as good exercise as run ning their lega off playing, "Tho kids these days think their mothers and fathers ought to keep them like ladles and gentlemen. The mothers and fathers are good enough to do the work and buy their clothes and stuff their stomachs, but when it comes to helping with tho work -why, nobody's got a right to ask tholr own children to help do tho work. "They are not satisfied with Just clean clothes, either. They want to doll up, That's another thing I don't liko about this public playground. Tho big boys and girls have got to doll up when they go there. Then they come home dlriy and maybe with their good clothes torn, and expect ma to wash and iron and mend extra for them. "There's something wrong about tho way the kids are belug taught. They don't care a snap what their mothers and fathers say to them any moro. What anybody else saya goes with 'om, but not their own folks. We poor folks have to pay taxes for somebody to put wrong notions Into our children, it looks to me. If I saw any good com ing out of it I wouldn't say nothing. I want my children to bo educated and have their chance. Hut when I nee them turning out good-for-nothings and only out for a good time and worse It makes mo feel pretty bad.

BUY MEATS DY MltS. KINGSLUY. N tllnnnlnc out tlm mrnt fop your market basket, bear in mind tho fact that In hot weather all meats (especially tht) flesh or young animals) tlsh. shell fish, eggs, milk and eheeso should onlv be used when perfectly fresh and even then should bo watched most carefully. Therefore, buy In small quantities and take extra precautions In the cooking, During great heat, you can not bo too careful in examining vour purchase beforo cooking. When u Joint mIiowb signs of tint, cut off tho affected part and make sure that tho remainder Is quickly wnshed in vinegar and water and It will bo quite sweet. Ilecnuso of theso summer difficul ties, it In Just as well to bear In mind tho derivation of tho much-talked of ptomalno poisoning. Grucsomq ni It Is, It Is hotter to study It as n preven tive measure than to rcullzo It ns a painful If not fatnl experience. Ho horc It isl Tho term Is derived finm tho (ircclc word, ptomn. u corpse, -as tho poisonous compounds known as ptomaines, are found In dead bodies. IICCHU80 of this, but only small meats (veal Ih at its boat now), thai can bo cooked Immediately; fish that llko Caesar's wife, aro "ubovc suspi cion," smoked and sailed meats and tlsh and eggs which, boiled hard, make substantial salads with majonnalso dressing and ns omelet afford an ngrceablo vehicle for meat (minced ham), vegetables (corn, tomatoes, mushrooms, etc.) and fruit, as in ap ricot omolct. If you aro near tho water buy tlsh freely, for many varieties aro then at their best, and others aro not nvall ablo at all In tho wintor except In most inferior form due to long distance transportation nnd cold-storage rlbks. Therefore, hako lilucflsli and mackerel nnd iitillzo tho remnants by moulding them with gelatine. If wild things nro growing near jou, blueberries, green grapes or oven grcou apples, utilize them and when winter comes you will feel rewarded fur having spent tho time In gathering and preserving them for the mere coat of tho sugar. If proporly packed In tho containers whlrh como for tho pur pose, Undo Sam, for a few cents post age, will transport them right to jour homo door. ( ') iSFt I ? . m IHDMCS which used to encircle milady's dainty waist aro not to bo found In that region thin season. They havo moved up ward, most of them, to glvo tho new hlgh-watstcd effect. From this high position they nro apt to wandor in and nut of draperies, often creeping timid tho full skirt to tio In a part nt thn front or back of the hem. Ono pretty girdle had threo long loops falling dl tcctly under each other, and in thn end of each loop was caught a full blown pink lose. Another girdle of sulphur yellow was so completely hid den by tho chiffon ovcrwalst that ono could only guess at Its prcscuco on the dress. mffr A CHEAP BANDING pjru N elaborate and handiomn KiV banding can be made, from JJ cheap valcnclennen lace Inser tion by running parts of the design In colored mercerized cotton nnd gilt thread. Tho nguro Is not em broidered solidly, as that makes It too heavy, but longer and shorter stitches In over and over effect aro uacd as tho flower nhapo calls for It. Ono girl made herself llvo yards of such trim ming in a short time. Hho used two tones of old pink, and Alice blue, dull green and reddish brown, combining them to glvo quite an Oriental effect. The gilt wan not used solidly as an outline, merely defining certain parts, sometimes in a running stitch, again in n chain stitch. The outer edges of tho Insertion wero run ono edge will tho bluo with n line of palo yellow be low It, and on tho other edgo with green with tho palest pink above. To further Improvo tho apenranro of this cheap banding It was made up over cheap whlto satin ribbon tho exact width of the Insertion. rrgl lib following is a refreshing I disinfectant for a sick room, sU or any room that has an un pleasant aioma pervading it: I'ut some fresh ground coffee In a saucer, and In the center place a small piece of camphor gum, which light with a match.

E AKK two squares of white oil cloth and lay tho surface sldo together. Then stitch on the machine, making the rows of stitches one-half Inch apart. Draw the skeins of silk through the oil cloth tubes and clip the silk ends, To draw them through, thread a bodkin, run tho thrcud through thn looped skein and drop tho bodkin through tho tube, after which draw tho skelu Ihiough.

Tho most elaborate ribbon bows for hut trim ming can be made In this way, and they will ulwuya look well und pro fcMslonal If (hoy nro very firmly tied with strong linen thread. This method of making bows Is us economical as It Is effective, because the length of rib bon can ho untied at any time, slight ly moistened and then Ironed out, when ll will look llko a fresh piece of ribbon.

Or course, there are certain soriows which come to the busy ns well as tho Idle, but work Is a panacea for all Ills. Tho busy find relict from their grief In the many tasks waiting to bo done, Hut the Idle magnify their misfortunes until their minds are embittered, simply because they do not try to turn their attentions to anything else. When a man whose business claims every moment of his time is afflicted with mlsfortuuoand loss, his grief may bo deep and real, but his work inus be done anywuy. In working hours ho has no time to think of his alllctlon, which otherwise would be constantly in his thoughts, and so In tlmo the edge or his grlcr Is worn away Idlers, on tho other hand, are not only apt to magnify their real doubles, but tn create Imaginary ones if there are no real ones to bother them. Women who are In business them selves seldom come under the head of "misunderstood" The girl who claims that no one understands her true na ture Is almost always an Idler. The girl who earns her own living has no time to know or to care whether any one else understands her or not. It is only the "frlvollcr" who Is always wondering about tho "unknown depths" of her character. The woman who is idle often gives herself up to a sort of a scml-iuvalld-ism. licuty of tho women who com plain constantly of their delicate health havo nothing at all the matter with them except an ovcrlong doso or Idleness, On Iho other hand, tho girl who has a lively Interest In somo der Inlto work, who has a decided purpose In lire, seldom finds time to give to wondering about her health.
