It is a temptation to extrava gance to wander about a stationery shop, with Its attractive stock of paper and peas, pencils, writing cases ana other accessories of writing spread forth. The wise woman Is the one who buys carefully such supplies as she and her household need for writing letters. To begin with, there's note paper. Pure white paper Is always In gooJ taste, and no mistake is ever maae in choosing it. Pale gray paper and cream paper, too, are in impeccable taste, and there is a gray-blue thai many women of good taete use. It is a good plan to choose one sort of paper and always use it. Pay it In several sizes in letter and note size and in correspondence cards, and buy envelopes of the same sort tor holding calling cards. You can order this al ways at the same stationer s, and the expense of having it always the same will be no greater than the expense of choosing a different sort each time you buy paper. And you will gain a reputation for always using paper of good quality and in good taste. Although the brilliant paper one sees in the shops (there is just .now a canary yellow lined with royal pur ple) is not to be considered, the wom an who likes gay colors may Indulge her liking in the accessories of her writing table. There are the colored leather writ ing cases or desks, for one thing. These can be had in red, purple or green, as well as in brown, navy blue and black. j Then there are the bright 4uiH pen holders that add a festive tone to the writing table. There are all sorts of oddities in pencils, too, that are useful Wor writing lists and making memo randa. There is a new sort with a funny little child's head stuck on the top. And there is the colored pencil stamped in letters of gilt with the name of the owner. The ink pot, too, can be of bright color and interesting bhape. There are little figures of men and women, in a-uv-colored china, for this purpose, ar.A them rf lovely DieCeS Of eX- pensive porcelain for the same use. SPINACH WITH EGG are covered with dentin and slips of the same stuff are made for the furniture. Then the house la locked up and left for the summer. If all these precautions are taken to protect a house which is closed against dust and dirt, how much more are they needed in a house which is in use all summer? If the furniture needs to be covered Jn a house where all the win dows are kept closed, how much more does it need to be covered in a house where the windows are open and the dust of the streets is blown in with every wind? If -you have high priced, thick rugs, beautiful satin or velvet furniture, and expensive draperies In your home, that is all the more reason why you should expend more money to keep these pos sessions in good condition. Then thick draperies and heavy rugs are so unhealthful and so uncomfort able In hot weather. You need as much air in your apartment as you can possibly get without shutting any of ' it out with unnecessarily thick hang ings at the window. It is much cooler and far more comfortable looking to put away all the winter furnishings and to hang the lightest of scrim cur tains at the windows to put the light est of rag rugs on the floor (If you want any at all) and to cover the dark furniture with dainty chints or cre tonne coverings. SUCCESSFUL YEAR IN N EASING MEMBERS Its Annual Session Closes at Newberg and Reports Are of the Very Optimistic Sort, SPARKLING GLASSWARE If you Include your cut glassware in the general spring housecleanlng, here Is a simple way to make it sparkle: Immerse the article In the dishpan, or something large enough to accommo date it. Use a soft nail brush, so that there will be no crack or design left unbrushed. Warm water, white soap and a few drops of ammonia added to the rinsing water will do the rest. Try it.

Two quarts spinach, two. a". u tablespoons each of flour I and butter, one egg, few grains each of nutmeg and pepper, one-half oup soup stock. Wash spinach thoroughly in several waters, using warm water for the last washing. Place In kettle, adding salt, but no more water, and cook gently for 29 minutes, lifting mass occasionally so that it will not burn. Chop fine or put through food chopper, return to kettle, adding melted butter and flour combined with stock. Boil ten minutes. Beat egg thoroughly, add a little of liquor left from spinach or cold water, mix well with spinach and season with pepper and nutmeg. Leaves of young beets or kohlrabi or new cabbage are eoodcooked in this way. CHEESE ROLLS out the accompaniment of cheese and crackers is quite impossible. A nice wav to prepare cream cheese so that it is sou enough to spread on toasted' crackers is the following: Ha e ready a good sized bowl, into which you can put a cream cheese and mash it with a silver fork. THe mixture should be well mahed, so that it will be perfectly smooth. Now add two tablespoonf uls of sweet cream, a teaspoonful of chopped chlvts or olives, plain or stuffed; a quarter teaspoonful of salt and enough paprika to make It quite pink. Roll into small balls, garnish with half of an English walnut on either side like bonbons and serve on tne plate with the salad, or separately, as you fancy. It may also be used on romaine salad with a French dressing.

She was so pretty and sweet and every thing that a fairy ought to be that you were sure the minute you saw her that she was a nice fairy the kind of a fairy you would like to know. That is, you were sure until she spoke. Then you were sure she was not the kind of a fairy you would like to know! For what do you suppose she said? Listen! "Oh, dear! What a horrid, tiresome world this is!" she fretted. "And 1 suppose I shall have to get up.' Just that way think of HI Now of course fairies don't often talk that way. 1 should say not! And ot course this fairy was tired from working unusually hard the evening before and she naturally did not feci like getting up. Still, that was not the way for her to talk, was it? At least the fairy queen thought it wai cot For, you must know, the fairv queen heard her and was much dis appointed to find that one of her very own subjects talked in such a fashion. I must stop that," said the fairy queen, and she flew at once over to tne grumbling fairy. "Good morning, fairy dear," said the fairy queen kindly. "What can I do for you this morning?" "You can get rne my breakfast," answered the cross fairy; 'get It for me without my moving a bit." And immediately almost before the fairy finished her sentence. ther was a breakfast of honey and dew right on tne riower, ready for JUDSON of the edge eating! The fairy queen, waited till the Dreaaiast was all eaten up, then she said, "And now what can I do for you : uo my work, so that I can stay and rest in this flower all the whoie cay long." So the fairy queen, without a worl ota an tne rairy's work and let the grumonng rairy stay In her flower nome ail the whole day long. You Yon can get me my breakfast,' answered the cross fairy.

AH day long the fairy queen worked opening flower buds, helping the sun beams and the breezes and encourag ing tbe buds to blossom. And all day long the cross little fairy stayed in her flower home; and she got tired-er and tired-er and her legs felt cramped and stiff and she wanted so much to run and work. But she couldn't, you see, because she had wished to stay in her flower. Finally, when the evening shadows began to grow across the grass, the fairy queen came back to the cross little fairy. "Now, fairy dear, is there anything more I can do for you?" said she. "I want you to be happy, as you used to be. You may have one more wish."
