This department on ' Home Decoration is tor the benefit of all women who have household problems to solve. Queries per? taining to problems of this kind may be addressed to Miss Sned icor, care of Women's Depart ment of the Mall Tribune. Query. Should a table be placed in the middle of the living room?

If it Is a very formal affair coffee Is brought in to the dining room In silver pots and poured by the1 hostess or one who Is taking her place. For on infor mal family affair the coffee is often made at the table and served there. Query. Are slip covers used, now? Mrs. B. M. H. Answer. Yes, the manufactur ers are showing many chairs and dnvenports covered in slip cover style, and you will find slip covers used in many or the best homes. Sometimes they are used only dur ing tho summer months and re moved during, the winter when darker furniture seems, to fit into the scheme better. Query. Is . mohair better for draperies than cretonne? Mrs. T. U. M. Answer. The Lesher mohairs do not fade even in the strongest light, because the wool is on the Inside of the fibre they shed dust very readily, and because of their, texture they always hang well. Be- 1 sides they are no more expensive . than goo deretonnes; Query. What 'treatment do 'you 'advlseToTfc-"i'r'glHterif ' rdut'ing ; the summer months. Ours always be come simply dust catchers.

The Woman's -Dept. of the Mall Tribune has offered six mouths subscription for- the best' piece of tapestry exhibited at the fair. This comes In response to the keen in terest which women all over the valley are taking in this form of needlework. When -the books were published this work was omitted. No premium list ever inoJuded a the compilers wanted to include, jsecond prize. j Work Is going forward nt the lever before. This is a valley where flowers, fruits nnd grains grow Jn abundance and our .lack son County fair should be such that we more than prove our slo gan. "This Is a Great Country." So every flower grower and flower lover should plan to exhibit better nnd more artistic displays than ever before. Notice that dahlias are to be exhibited on stems this year. One of the reqquqirements for prize dahlias Ih now that they jbe able to hold their hends up. Several new ideas ore being worked out for special displays this year and the floral department is certain of an appreciative audi ence alt thru the fair. The cooks and canners all ovor the valley should make themselves familiar with the premium book and respond this year with better entries than ever -'. before. Two years ago these two departments I were not crowded. Painted and redone pieces, of furniture are list ed t his year. I f you have been interested in this work bring your work in and so encourage others. Interest In craft rugs continues keen, and the prediction Is for a very interesting display.

BEAUTY in the HOME The Colorful Bedroom By ACNES FOSTER Will GUT litc-erlor Ucivrutor npo capture the charm of color ln your home, to select, discard, combine, contrast the In tin I te var iety of shades which are at your command this is a part of the art of interior decoration. At the . 1 risk of seem ing professor ial I am going to give a few simple rules for (he use of color in f he bedroom, rultR which I have found to be or practical valua in my own work. I''t-s(. lake Into conslderu tton the exposure of ojr bedroom I'hu north room qtuat liuve bright, warm colors. The lied room which is normal ly flooded with sunlight should have more subdued uhudes. Second, luko stock of the furn ishings and decorations which you already have, or are planning to use In redecorating. See tf 11 will not be possible to make use of your present rug, perhaps your curtains, certainly the better part of your furniture. Third, fix some one color, or a combination of two colors which will be the dominating tone of the room. Perhaps that color will be In the rug, the wallpaper, the color you are planning to apply to the bed. Fourth, when you have selected tho dominating tone end have fix ed It cither in llulsh or wallpaper or rug or curtains, bultd the rest of your color scheme around, that dominating tone. Let harmonising shades predominate .wlih one spot 6f com rast,'. ;' ' u Many color combinations for dif ferent types of bedrooms are sim ple., practic 1, and easy to execute. 1 recommend that you got u duco color chart and plan your decorat ing with "the ad of these rich shades. Here is a suggestion for a color ful boudoir to be ilnished tn ;hls material. Have pale green walls and yellow curtains sprinkled with small flower motifs In rose and green. The woodwork should .be of grey green obtained by mixing ulle green with twenty-live per cent French grey. The beds nniy be of French grey bordered with a thin Btrle of coral rose and the d ressi n g tah I e if coral rose with skirt of roso brocade or taffeta. Have tho choirs of French grey, with small rose. . cushions with green flower patterns. Wall und celling lamps with yellow shades, and boudoir lamp with rose shade, complete the ensemble.

By KICV. J. .1. OAHTMOBKRRY ! (Pastor Walnut Hills Christian Church. Cincinnati 1 ! Prejudice denotes prejudgment. Strangely enough it belongs ! in the category of respectable sins. A man cannot He or defraud ! 4- and maintain the respect of his fellows; but he can have a nar- ! row, pinched soul and sllll go iu good society. S J There is no greater peril in life than prejudice. Ii is the ! 4 offspring of Ignorance and the twin sister of bigotry, lt induces ! moral colorblindness and sees virtue as vice. lt. is a flagrant i tfa betroyal of the spirit of Christ. The remedy for prejudice i ! three-fold. ! 4 First, face the facts. "Come and see." was Philip's dial- ! t lenge to Nathaniel who, Insisted that no good thing could come ! 4 out of Nazareth. This willingness to become intelligent finally ! t led Nathaniel to dlscipleshlp. ! 4 Again, cultivate a' healthy tolerance. I do not mean the i attitude which believes nothing and stands for nothing. That ! 4 betokens weakness and is as dangerous as it is. Insipid, lint ! 4 strive to understand the other man's point of view. If you are ! 4 grounded in basic convictions yourself you can afford to be, 5 4 tolerant toward others. 3 4 Finally, this leads us straight to tho Christian law of love, H 4- which is the ultimate cure for prejudice'. Tolerance Is not mil'- ! 4- ficlenl, Tho husband who simply tolerates his wife has taken J 4 tho first step towards' a broken, unhappy home. .It Is affection ! 4 that she craves, nnd with this the, humhliy cottage becomes a I 4 royal palce. "Love thinketh no evil; it suffereth long and is -J 4 kind." Yes, love-drives, out prejudice they cannot abide in the I 4 same heart or dwell under the same roof. 4 4 4 fr 4. 4. 444 44 a 4-4S5' 4-4.4 44444444444 Timely Suggestions for August White heats from the heart of August Ovor the land are rolled White hoats from the heart of August into the lilies fold.
