The Furniture's Summer Clothes
If your parlor, living room or an\ n
the most used rooms In the house ai<
upholstered in heavy goods, be sure it
make or have made summer slips inn
only as a protection to the finer goou-
but to give a lighter and more su
mery effect to the rooms.
There are many really pretty cp
tonnes and other materials which ni;i:
be used and which will add to rattiei
than detract from the beauty of tli.
rooms. Time was when we though
only the plain linens should' be us* •
for this purpose, and the house look *,
as though it had «one Into a sort ui
mummy-like slumber for the scíim.
But this time is over. We may nnik<
the summer clothes of the furnitutc i
bright and pretty as possible and st:
be In the vogue.
Of course the heavier rugs will t
, stored away, and it any rugs uiv
i bhey will be of the cool fiber or .
materials, which are so pretty m il
light looking.
Then the draperies at the windows
should be of the plain and cool inu
terials, easily washable and nor 5u
jured by the summer's dust.
If you have very valuable rugs
! hangings it is well to place them hi*
cold storage with some reliable tirm-
during the season dangerous to their
safety.

One of the best things to remore-
grime from the batbtubs is a

To clean windows first wash *ell

The Diving Bell.
The history of diving reaches hr*K
into the dim and distaut past. Alex-
ander the Great is said to have •/.«•
sceuded in a machine which kept him
dry while making some kind of nu<i
marine investigation. Aristotle m - i

century appears a picture of st num.

a leather tub floated on the surfm*-
oi the water by an inflated bag. In
1538 two Greeks made a submitrin*
trip under an inverted chamber, wlik-h
kept them dry. This was in tin-
presence of the Emperor Charle v.
and some 12,000 spectators.
TEMPTATION.
Temptation is a fearful worrf. Jt
indicates the beginning of a possible
series of infinite evils. It is the
ringing of an alarm bell whoae
melancholy sounds may reverberate
through eternity. Like the sudcíei
sharp cry of "Fire!" under our win-
dows by night, it should rouse as
to instantaneous action and brace
every muscle to its highest tension.
—Horace Mann.
