Before you climb in behind your wheel this 'morning, Mr. Cheui- ieur, I wish you would_leern a little 'lesson by heart. It !s this; ' If a person on foot is iujuredby mymachine IAM TO BLAME. Do you get it? Under no ,conceivable circum- stances are you to run into, bump ' against, push or jostle amanawo- man, or child who ,s afoot. What's that? They ought to be careful? Forget ft! It :s YOU who are to be careful. It is YOU .who are in control of a big man - killing piece of machinery on the public highway. AND THE RE- SPONSIBILITY IS ALL YOURS, They ought to use common sense, you say? They ought to take or- dinary precaution and look where they're' going? Get all that line of excuses clean out of your rmind. You have no business to presume upon any tau.' tion, common sense, or even in- telligence on the part of people a - toot. The reason is that they are not !handling a mach ne and you are They may be thinking of nothing, absent-minded. Their wits may be a mile away. And they have a perfect right to moon along :the street if they choose. It as YOUR business not to hilt them. •It is up to you to be so careful that a child cannot run under your wheels ON PURPOSE. You should have such control of your engine that. no one can force an accident upon you of that kind. You ought to be able to run your car through a street full of blind, deaf and dumb, and drunken men. Remember, tivhen you have crushed a playing child to death it will be no excuse to your con- science to say, .'He deliberately ran right under my ' car." You have no right to allow a 'chbld to run under your car. When you see children playing, go slow, creep alongi Stop. When you see a nervous woman hesitating Arid giving signs that she does rigt know whether to go forwardi or . back, stop ! Give her all the time in the world. When jou approach pedestriians from behind blow your 'horniwhile yet along way off. ! ,don't wait until you get close 'and. then fragh ten them. In a nutshell, remember that the person onfoot has the right of way, always and everywhere. And remember that No ,EXCUSE GOES for running down a child or a woman, or any human .being, for that matter. YOU are in control of the ma- chsine. YOUR! FOOT is on the brake.

A. wealthy woman is remodeling an old farmhouse into a modern home. The old kitchen has walls made of cobbles or bowlders foundin the re• gion. It bas a pointed ceiling about twenty feet high at the peak, with hand hewn beams fastened with pins in the old fashioned way. In remodeling her kitchen she wish- ed to keep as many of the old features as possible, so sbe has whitewashed the bowlders, allowed the high ceiling to remain and is having worked out for her a color scheme of white, gray and brick red which will be most pic- turesque. The large five foot range will be brick set with a hearth of red. brick on two sides, The old red brick shim - OLD STYLO IE SEW ELEarnoTIlln. ney will also add its note of color, as will the immense copper boiler near the range. The beams of the ceiling are to be painted terra cotta, and many articles of pottery, like casseroles and big jugs, will all be in harmony, All the new trims will be painted gray, which, with the whitewashed walls showing the old cobbles and the brick red in pottery, chimney and hearth, will make a kitchen which re- minds one of the ,pictures of some of the Dutch painters of interiors. For rooms furnished in the old time effect the very modern electrolier pic- tured, carried out in colonial design with prism trimmings, is one of the latest novelties. Kitchen Keynotes. A very good way to save the coal bill will be found by dissolving half a teaspoonful of saltpeter in half a cup- ful of water; then pour over a scuttle of coal. To bleach white goods that have be- come yellow dip them in strong bine water after washing, let them become very blue and then hang out to dry. When they are washed they will be thoroughly bleached. After filling a rubber water bottle with hot water it is a good plan to press the side of the bottle before put- ting in the stopper. This allows all the steam to escape, and there is little danger of the seams coming undone, no matter how boiling hot the water mai be. To remove scorch from linen use the juice of an onion. Bake a large onion and squeeze out the juice through a 'piece of muslin; mix with an ounce of fullers earth, a little finely' shredded poop and a wlneglassful of vinegar.; oil together till the soap has dissolv- ed, issolyed, leave till cold and then apply the preparation to the scorched linen. Let it dry and then wash in the usnai Large holes in the knees and heels of socks and ,stockings, if mended as.,. follows, will be found to wear longer look neater and be more comfortable than if mended in the usual way: Take some strong black net, rah out any stiffness with the, hand, cut slight- ly larger than the bole and tackneatly on the wrong side. Then darn out and into the net on the right side until the hole is well covered. The'darning will hardly be seen, and you will be de- lighted with the results.
