HINTS FOR THE HOUSE- WIFP From- the domestic science de oartment of O. A. C. comes the following household hints: i In the spring the home maker's mind seriously turns to thoughts or clean ing, and she is glad, to hear pf some means by which she can improve the apparance of the furniture in her home, which is showing the effects of the hard wear of the winter. There are many ways by which it may be great ly improved, which do not require a great amount of time, strength or ex pense. There Is no better preparation for removing spots from furniture than the Rotten Stone Cleaner, which is as follows: H cup rotten .tone. cup linseed oil. cup turpentine. i cup naphtha. k dip strong solution oxalic acid. '4 cup alcohol. H cup cold water. 1 tablespoon sulphuric acid. Combine as given. Shake together and use. After applying the above, apply fur niture wax, using the following recipe: One pound beeswax. One pint turpentine. Melt wax over hot water; when quite soft, beat in the turpentine. If used for furniture, beat in one gill of alco hol. If for floors, and the soft finish id desired, omit the alcohol and add one gill of paraffine oil. Polish with a weighted brush. T!e dustless dust cloth is a great help in caring for furniture, and is very easily made. The recipe is as follows: Dip cheese cloth in hot water and dry. Then saturate the cloth with kerosene and keep In an airtight can for 48 hours. It is then ready for use. Cut glass may be thoroughly cleaned by washing It in a solution of ammonia water, about two tablespoons to the quart. A very quick way to clean silver is known as the Bright Pan process: One quart boiling water. One tablespoon salt. One tablespoon soda.

INEXPENSIVE DOILIES you wish you had a luncheon set of dollies yet have no money at hand to buy them? If so go to the nearest store and purchase blue Cenlm at 25 cents a yard. This is the only cost. To make them, first mark on tho denim with pencil and compass the. proper sizes for one center doily, six plate, six cup and saucer, and six tumbler doilies When marking with the compass leave at least three inches between each two of the circles for the fringe. Cut out the dollies, leaving one and one-half inches on the outside of each circle, and stitch the circles on the machine with cotton thread of the same color. Fringe to the stltchilig, taking out the corners with a large pin, press, and then even off the fringe with a pair of scissors. Attractive sets may also be made of yellow, of green, and of pink denim-to match the dishes witli which one wishes to use them. The blue doilies are very pretty when used at a Dutch luncheon with yellow tulips as the dec oration. They are also practical, as they launder beautifully. SILK STOCKINGS Silk stockings win noi begin to show holes nearly as quickly If be fore giving them any wear you rinse them out in soap and water. But at this time and in subsequent washings, be sure that no soap is left in the silk. SPICE OF VARIETY A little folly is desirable in him that will not be guilty of stupidity. Montaigne.

"Bread Could So Many Successful Merchants Make the Same Mistake Almost every grocer in Portland and throughout the state of Oregon sells Pacific Coast Biscuits Swastika Brand. Nearly all grocers strongly recommend Swastikas, and a big percentage handle no other biscuits. Could so many suc cessful merchants make the same mistake? The representative grocers of this city and region would rather sell Pacific Coast Biscuits than any other brand because they know that Swastika Biscuits are always crisp and fresh al ways a little better than the next best biscuits you can buy. You-see, ladies, Swastika Biscuits are made of the purest in gredients in big, modern, sun-lit plants by men who have reduced the science of baking to a fine art. So, when you buy biscuits, tell your grocer that you want the best Swastika Biscuits. It matters not what your taste in biscuits may be there's a Swastika made to suit you exactly. And all Swastikas fairly radiate goodness. Look for our famous trademark tS seal of prosperity, on the end. of the carton, when you buy biscuits if you want the best. It's a surety of biscuit perfection. . Pacific Portland nd BuHrn g.ertone ' festartng ' Hsok Mian. U s. m. to 11 p. m. ' - EMPKKS Bn..li ait Mark Dark.-.

The comedy offering on the pro gram is "Bread and Butter," a Kev stone featuring Hank Mann, which is Coast Biscuit guaranteed to cure a grouch no mat ter how long standing. A acenic, show ing the difficulties of an early sea son mountain trip in southern Califor nia is an added feature to the bill. , Theda Itara at Majestic. Theda Bara Is given a splendid ve hicle in the "Eternal Sapho," which began today at the Majestic to run for the balance of the week. It is a heart stirring story, that takes the audience from the slums Into the studios and fashionable society.' In the course of her ascent the girl, I .aura, portrayed by Miss Bara, wrecks the lives of three men. In the end to find' she has accomplished nothing, not even to secure absence of misery.

The program has variety plus, with grand opera selections, acrobat ics, song-and-dance and a comedy sketch balancing the Bluebird photo ply. "John Needham's Double."

Mr. George Loewenson viewed Theda Bara s -Eternal Sapho" Tues day and approved it, and yeaterday morning a permit was issued. Latei in the day Mrs. K. B.
