About the House
MAIfE A COMFORTABLE LAWN,
SWING.
A sliding bed with a mattress in
two parts, was discarded as a sleeping
arrangement because something went
wrong with one of the legs, so that
the bed when stretched out, would not
stand satisfactorily,
Several of the family were for call-
ing the junk man, but amore ingen-
ious member of the group saw possi-
bilities in the old sliding bed.
It was taken apart so that there
were two good stout springs with iron
flames. Stout chains were purchased
and attached, and the hammock swing
suspended from the porch ceiling. The
mattress was covered with cretonne,.
with a ruffle on either side, and
pillows to match made.
The seat was so comfortable that it
was always in demand. The other part
was taken and turned upside. down
so that the erstwhile legs formed four
posts, three sides of which were cover-
ed with stout khaki cloth of tent
weight. Thismade a back, a head,
and a foot. This part of the mattress
was covered with khaki to match, with
a straight valance in front. Stout
chains hung the swing at the farther
end of the porch, and bright cretonne
cushions finished the article satisfac-
torily, so that it was even better than
the first one.
The expense entailed for the two
verandah swings was a mere trifle,
as cretonne was used which was in
the house, and only the khaki cloth
and heavy chain had to be bought.

for that service her charge would be

The plan succeeded from the first.
Most of the young married people in
the community were of modest means
and did not keep a maid. They were
glad to find an intelligent and respon-
sible person to stay in the house when
they wished to go out.
