tuldeub"eclly the most injurious of

Hurn from the earliest times, but
the improved standards of Iivi'lg
of modern times, involving wider
use of manufactured fur and wool-
len clothing, rugs, and upholstered
furniture, have greatly extended
their field of damage. As the
black carpet beetle has somewhat
similar babies to the niotll, lire fol.
lowing remark, may be considered
as applying equally to it,
These insects are most apt to
multiply in places where there is
relatively little disturbance. This
is an important point and should be
borne in mind ss it suggest; the
remedy. Cleo forthought and vigi-
lance need to bze exercised. Incipi-
ent infestaitions should be traced
to their source and removed with.
oat delay to prevent their spread.
Clothing subject to damage, when
not in use, should be brushed and
beaten, or be sent to the dry clean-
ers, before being carefully seolved
away in moth -proof hags or boxes.
Frequent atterltiou to clothing not
so protected Is necessary during
the warmer months of the year.
Floor cracks, especially when cov-
ered with rugs or carpets, need to
be filled or cle,lned out ,periodicatlly.
The spaces behind baseboards and
other woodwork should not be over-
looked, Woolen lint, dust and
debris which collect in the cold air
shafts of house furnaces form a
source of infestation and should be
removed from time to time. Rugs
and carpets, especially those with a

Young men was not looked lipoa
favorably by "them," and tweeted
that for a two year period at least
she should continue her friendship
with Gerald Ileffron. She was
warned several times throughout
the letter that its contents must
be kept secret, After extending a
threat if not obeyed the writer
cheerily wished the maiden a Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Near,

MIRROR PICTURES
HAVE you ever taken mirror pic-
tures; that is, for example, a
picture of sister or the "girl friend"
standing in front of a mirror perhaps
"dolling up" a bit or maybe just ad-
miring herself?
It is the unusual that attracts at-
tention but it is necessary to use
your eyes and a little imagination
and ingenuity to ferret out the ex-
ceptional and get pictures that show
individuality.
When making mirror pictures and
focusing for reflected images only,
It is necessary to add the distance
from the mirror to the subject, to the
distance from the mirror to the lens
of the camera and then set the focus
accordingly.
If it is desired to include the sub-
ject in the picture with the reflected
image the focus should be set for the
distance from the mirror to the lens,
The smaller the lens opening the
greater the depth of field and the
sharper will be both itnages. Of
course, the nearer the subject is to
the mirrl .,' the less is required in the
matter of "depth".
Let us suppose that sister Mary
is two feet and the camera six feet
from the mirror. If you want to in-
clude sister, as well as her reflected
image, in the picture, set the focus
at six feet, If you want only the re-
flected image in the picture, you set
the focus at eight feet. A photo0asb
lamp simplifies your exposure prob-
lem and permits a small enough lens
opening to gain a sufficient range of
sharpness.
After locating your subject in the
Ander and setting the focus of your
camera at the proper distance, set
the shutter for "tiute", place a
photoflash bulb In an ordinary floor
lamp within reaching distance from
the camera, tilting the shade slightly
upward and toward the subject, If
you cannot tilt the shade, remove 1t
from the lamp. Itis best not to have
any bright lights burning neat' the
lens of the camera. Set your lens
opening according to the table on
the photoflash lamp container, Take
your position at the camera, press
tine cabie release to open your shut-
ter and immediately turn on the
photoflash and then quickly close
the shutter—and the picture has
been taken. Simple, isn't it? For this

type of picture a No. 10 plrotollash

In amateur photography, experi-
menting becomes the spice of life
and you will be surprised at the in-
teresting effects you will get in wont-
ing out "etuut" pictures on gloomy,
rainy days when outdoor activities
are taboo, Results, 111 some Malan-
ces, may be rather grotesriue but
you will hev0 a lot of inexpensive
amusement and plcturee that show
individuality. Anyone can take the
