To Mend a Tablecloth.
To repair a tablecloth lay it quite
flat and cover the hole with a piece of
plain brussels net; tack It oil and darn
with fine lias. When ironed It will
scarcely be noticeable. If the table
cloth is beyond repiir cut squares from
the best part of It and hem around.
These will answer as serviettes for
everyday use.
The Useful Forceps.
A pair of good steel forceps, perhaps
Idle on the medicine shelf, come in
very handy while sewing. They are
the best device yet for getting the
cloth into the "heuimer" just right, for
turning under a last little stubborn
edge while stitching or for picking out
odds and ends of basting thread.
Lettuce Needs a Shady
Corner of the Garden
A partially shady part of your Harden
can be used for growing head lettuce
or romaiue lettuce In the warm months,
says a bulletin from the National
Emergency Food Garden commission.
The quality of letture is a [it to be
injured in hot, dry weather. For that
reason some sort of partial shading is
desirable when tlie plants will not ma
ture before hot weather sels in. Hot
weather coining early in the life of the
lettuce plant is apt to prevent it from
forming any head.
When the garden is not shaded the
lettuce may be artificially shaded in
hi>t weather by a movable screen made
by stretching cheesecloth over a V
shaped frame made of light stri[>s of
wood. The sides of this frame should
be two or three feet wide, and the
frame ought to be ten or twelve feet
long. The cloth will partially shade
the plant, retard evaporation of the
soil's moisture and enable the grower
to produce crisp, good flavored lettuce
in summer.
Ilead lettuce seed should be planted
early in the season, a half ounce being
enough to plant 100 feet of row. The
plants when quite small should be thin
ned to stand six to eight inches apart,
while the rows ought to be one foot
apart at least. The plant needs much
moisture; hence thorough cultivation
should be given, while artificial water
ing helps the crop in dry weather. The
entire head should be cut for use.
Romaine leaves grow erect and form
a loose head. The crop is grown the
same way as head lettuce, except that
when the plants are grown the outer
leaves should be tied together at the
top to bleach the inner leaves.
WOMANKIND.
As for the women, though we scorn
and flout 'em,
We may live with but cannot live
without 'em.
-John Dryden.
A Neat Appearance
Personally I am a well defined Blob.
Frequently 1 nc'.leet to shave. Almost
never Is my linir correctly brushed.
Nearly always I have the appearance
of a man who has dressed himself iu
au upper berth of a Pullman car. I
patronize a rather expensive Fifth ave
nue tailor who lias long since despair
ed of making me loot; presentable. lie
attempts, 1 believe, to extract some
sort of comfort from the haberdasher's
adage that geutlemen never look so
neat as barbers and barmen, no matter
how skillful their tailors may be.
Unfortunately, however, it Is not gen
tility that makes nv a slob. I should
say rather that It Li a lack of mental
discipline, I loathe the Idea of hnvlng
to tub and shave on schedule, then
spend so many minutes on my hair,
so many more on my cravat, nnd
so in, until I have turued myself out
"perfectly groomed," as (ho novelists
say.
Perhaps that sound* like ridicule of
the so called "neat flivdser," hut it Is
not. If I were twenty o:ie again I
should pay more attention to my per
sonal appearance 1 should not search
for the I test uoieltics nf male attire,
but invariably 1 should be scrupulous
ly barberjJ aiid laundered and hoot
blacked. I really believe that such
things count. It !s not alone what
other people think of you; it is partly
what you think of yourself.
However, the other man's viewpoint
Is always important, as the best sort of
self esteem results from your con
sciousness that you are deporting your
self as decent people expect you to act.
Any other sort of self esteem Is either
bluff or self delusion.—William Max
well in Collier's Weekly.
Advice to Young Men.
Never desire to appear clever and
make a show of your talents before
men. lie honest, loving, kindly aud
sympathetic In all you say and do.
Cleverness will flow from your natural
ly if you have it, and applause will
come to you unsought from those who
know what to applaud, but the ap
plause of fools is to be shunned.—Pro
fessor RIackie.

Hob-nailed footwear for miners was the rule, too—until The B. F.
Goodrich Company made rubber boots and shoes with soles that Outwear
Steel. Miners everywhere are finding that they do not have
to half-sole these wonderful boots and shoes—"Hipress"
soles outwear the hobnails themselves.
These boots are MOLDED—just like the
famous Goodrich Automobile Tires—INTO
ONE SOLID PIECE. They can'tpeel,or crack,
or leak. "Hipress" is pure white in color and
/ has a "RedTine 'round theTop"to distinguish
it from all other footwear. -Look for that "Red
^ Line" because only "Hipress" Boots and Shoes
have soles that are tougEer than steel.
