Fix Garden Tools . Now and Save Time Next Spring BY properly taking care of the garden tools in the fall, hours of making ready In spring can be saved. Rust has a knack of doing slow but effective dam age and Is the thing to be guard' ed against most carefully. All metal work, nnd wood, too. can be rubbed with nn oil-soaked rag. The oil used should be clean but not too light for it must give a perfect covering through the winter. All bearings, too, can be greased well. If broad surfaces are to be kept shiny, such as the share of the garden plow or the hoe blade, coat tho surface liber ally with hard oil. This work is a dirty job and should be done In old clothes. Should you find n tool badly ( rusieu. a unfit nai win up iminu an excellent thing to remove the rust. A fine grade of satjr'd paper will also cut through nicely. This can he finished with ornery cloth, although n buffing wheel turned at high speed with some emery powder on It will be the best to put on a highly polished surface that will "scour" when first used. Provide Good Storage 1 There should be a storage room, dry nnd completely weatherproof, devoted to garden tools. As each tool is used for the last time, it should be checked in a notebook, and any parts needing replacement or repair noted. A good time to see to these re pairs is at thin time, too, adds the American Home writer. Take out the broken or worn part and on a shipping tag note what is to be done. If It Is a casting, put down the maker's name and ad dress and number of the part. It Is then all ready for the local deal er who will see that the part Is replacetl. florae er i To Enliven tho Nursery A delightful outdoor note may be given to the children's room this fall by .Introducing a low wln dom box where seedlings mny be watched from day to day. This need not be a clumsy nnd leaky wooden box on nn old tabuorot it had better ' bo one of'- the simple Iron and tile tables (the tiles amusing In themselves with animal and humnn figures) nnd the box a Blmple tin affair bright ly painted. Color Fashions The high fashion leaders In col ors for . women's winter costumes indicate the striking preeminence of black. After black the favor ites are Patou empire green, Slehll zulu brown and Molyneux ' blue. There is an increasing tendency to wurd the use of brighter colors for afternoon dresses. A Nupkln Note If you are planning to include bouillon In your menu for a for mal luncheon, the linen damask napkin. Is not placed across , the servlce'plate and tho cup and sau; cer set over It. The napkin, cor rectly folded, appears on the left of the place setting. For the for mal dinner, the napkin Is laid across tho service plate with the long fold at a right angle to the table ?dgo. ' Ensemble ' Illouso The ensemble suit of skirt nnd Jacket, whether of linen, silk, tweed nr jersey, is most effective ly set off with a blauso of hand kerrhlef linen. These blouses arr without sleeves and come in a var iety of colors. Some I'ses of Soil A strong solution of snlt nnd warm water Is" an excellent rem edy for sprains and bruises. There Is nothing better for a burn than damp salt. A tenspoonful of snlt in a half cupful of water will cure colic if taken nt once. Before sweeping a carpet, sprinkle some salt over It: this takes up the dust and also bright ens the crdors. Meut I -oaf Two pounds hnmburg, one-half pound of pork, two small onions, chopped: one cup leftover cerenl, one cup 1read crumbs, two tea spoons snlt, two eggs, three table spoons fat, minced green pepper.

Only one of these boys was not a boy. No, these children hod run away from nn orphun homo somewhere in Chicago. They were Murlon and Jnck Howe. They wore twins, .twlve years old. By night": they ' were In New York. When they got Into New York Marlon nnd Jack climbed out of the airplane before anyone found them. The next day the big ship "At lantic." was sailing for Europe: Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Van Ness were snlllng and had the best suite on board the 'Atlantic." Several other people wero sailing too, that were important in New York. Jack and Marlon wanted to go to. Europe but they didn't have enough money to go. "I am go ing If I have to work my way across," said Marlon. "That's the way we can get across." They were lucky enough to get a Job of helping wash dishes. The people on boai'il the ship thought Marlon was a boy. "I guess I will call you Bill so they "will think you are a boV," said Jack. "All right." When they were about hnlfwoy across the ocean a big storm came up. The big ship rolled and lurched everywhere. About art hour went, by when the big ship gave a big lurch and It went down. They knf everyone off the boat, or thought they had. Juek and Marlon were washing dishes when the ship went down and then everything went black. Mr. and Mrs. Van Ness were In their suite and were just getting up when the ship went down. Hours later, Mrs. Van Ness enmc to. "James." sho called. "Yes, dear, I nm right hero near tho fire." . Mrs. Van Ness raised her self up off the ground whero she wus laying. Hhe saw a little boy nnd a girl with long curls sitting I'aclal Solonro It should be perfectly possible and perfectly sensible for a wo man to demand that her skin, In this modern day of science, be protected efficiently with due re gard for the general nature of her complexion personality, says Mar ralne do Plnnud, noted beauty au thority.

"Why. who are you?" asked Mrs. Van Ness. "I am Jack Howe and she. Is Marlon Howe." Juek told them all about Marlon and himself; where they came from and all. ' i They had been on tho Island a week when Mrs. Von Nosb said to James: "James, why can't wo adopt Morion and. Jaok as soon aa we cet back to some city. They are so cute and I love them as well as I do James Jr." "Sure, I do too." Jumes Jr., was tho Van Ness' only child, eighteen years old. One day a month later. Jack and Marion wero playing on the beach when Marlon said, "Oh Jack, look abithe. pretty boat coming. Let's go tell mother." sold Marlon, They went to tell Mrs. Van nnd James. "That looks , like James Junior's launch, don't It," said Mrs. Van Ness. "Yes, It does and It Is head ing Btralght for this place." Sure enough, It was James Jr.. and with him came n group of friends who 'were going to spend a month on tho Island. Ho was very. Very glad to see his mother nnd father. He Was glad to see his newly adopted sister and broth er. When Marlon nnd Jack were cleaned up they looked very much better. , Then James Jr. kissed Marlon nnd shook hands with Jack.. Ho said, "Look world. I havo a new sister and brother." The soon went bark to New York : and when they jrot there they went to the. orphan's home from where. Marlon and Jack had escaped.

Simplified modern rooms de mand unobtrusive devices- for plants, something which will har monize with the decorative spirit of the room. A most effective way to make the little Indoor win ter ."garden" port ' of the room Is to give It Spanish or Itnllnn iron work as Its setting. There aro little tnbles for porch, hall, or nny -room, made of tiles and set on a framework of Iron, These are excellent ns places for n pot of ivy, or any other plant ecause the seepage from the pot and the moisture cannot harm the tile top.- There are iron and tile. Iron, and painted tin window boxes, designed within for drain age of the soil nnd outsldo for good appearance. They are designed In several' sizes for Inrgo and ffmall windows, or to use In groups or pairs In a sunroom. These may be used in almost any Interior. They aro not limited to a Spanish or Italian dec orating scheme. Brackets Popular Aim Wall brackets are more popular than ever this season.

And It is of Interest to see that the design ers of toilet accessories, with an eye to making them agreeable to the best modern taste, have recently brought out colorful adaptations of original designs by several great art creators. One, for instance, is a Watteau pattern created In bur gundy and cream, featuring a pas toral scene done In the real manner of the great early Eighteenth Cen tury French painter whose sylvan scones and silken shepherdesses are famous. Another Is a period revival fol lowing the lead of Joalah Wedg wood, the great English artist and maker of ceramics whose tea serv ices and plates were the scarce prizes of Revolutionary days and are still preserved undor glass by collectors. Tho charm of this pat tern, whlctr is typically exquisite In contrasted blue and cream, Is that it will go well with any type of bedroom docorutlon and agree well on any dressing table with what ever other decorative pieces there may be lying about - ' Crocuses to Spangle' Lawns Crocuses scattered over the awn, spangling It with the bubble like blooms oi yellow, white and purple, before the grass has start ed to grow, give one of tho most dollghtful of spring effects. But to maintnln thin nffect requires an nual replacement. ' However, croc uses In quantity are cheap enough so that this delightful . planting mny he maintained. Like all bulhs, the -crocus must mature Its foliage In -order to ma ture tho bulb for bloom the fol lowing yenr and to produce Its normal Increase. This Is Impos sible If the lawn Is to be kept sightly. Tho crocus develops Its bloom before the foliage develops. After the bloom fades the long, narrow grass-like leaves develop and they do not mature, turn yel low, nnd disappear until well Into May. Jf the lawn were to remnln unmowed until the crocuses hnd completed their cycle of growth, the lawn mower wouldn't cope with It and- It would be neces sary to enll In n man with ft scythe. A nent lawn and a per manent crocus display are Impos sible. This Is tho renson that to have these bright flowers of early spring In the lawn they must bo planted nnnually. It Is merely necessary to fit n small flap of sod, tuck tho bulb under It, nnd firm tho sod bnck In place without disfiguring the lawn. Tho crocus, however, In beds and bordered where It may mature naturally Is a more per manent ornament.
