ROUSE 0' DREAMS
I possess a little house,
Caressed by sun and rain,
The ivy clambers up the walls.
Arid taps each latticed pane;
There all within is quietness
And peace of homely things
For I would have my little house
A vest for tired wings.
The firelight flickers on the wails
Wihere hang my pictures quaint;
A dozen garden scenesfor so,.
A famous artist's saint,
lefty well -loved books stand round.
about
In tang, inviting rows,
And there, beside the fender bright
An old brown dog's a -dose,
Be -cushioned nooks, designed for ease
Aiwait one here and there,
Whilst bowls of pinks and mignonette
Waft fragrance on the air. •
The kettle hums a merry tune
That never seems to cease,
And little china figures hine
Upon the mantlepiece.
Upstairs --ouch crooked, twisty
stairs,
And yet, so pleasant, too—
The little slant -roof sleeping rooms
Are decked in white and blue:
And there sweet sleep forever broods
From candle light till' dawn

I sweep and dust the pleasant roams,
•
I climb the crooked stair,
I keep the glowing fires alight,
I tend the garden fair.
So well I • love its every nook
That strange to me it seems,
This little house that I possess
Exists but' in my dreams.

Newspaper writers, usually women
themselves, (as it takes a woman to
point out another woman's faults),
are beginning to draw attention to
the fact that women are often very
careless motor drivers, do not take
the trouble to study the rules of the
road and are very reluctant to learn
anything about the mechanism of a
ear or how to change., a tire.
That -Women like to drive a car we
can readily understand tynd that they
are not any too fond of ehanging a
tire we can understand, too, as
ehanging a tire is a bothersome, dir-
ty job. But, after all, if women are
going to make a business of driving
cars they should know something a-
bout what makes the thing go, some-
thing about the rules of the road
and also be able, should occasion de-
mand -it, to remove a flat tire, take
out the inner tube thing and do a
mending job, replace, pump full of
air and go on. You might never have
to do these things, one does not get
very far -from a garage in these days
of multiplied automobile service sta-
tions, but'then again one might and
it is well to feel that one is ready
for any emergency,
One reason why women do not
take more interest in the workings
• of a car is because -they are not as a
rule , there are exceptions, of course,

Oftener than not. This in turn may
be the result of long centuries of
leaving those things to, men. If a
woman puts her mind tb`it she can
very readily learn to take things a-
part end put them '•together again.
The owner of a- newspaper and print-
ing plant whose chief Linotype oper-
ater was a woman once told me`that
she was the best operator he had ev-
er had, as she would take apart the
intricate machine, look for any trou-
ble which had occurred and rectify' it.
It is principally inclination . and us-
age. .
But :one of the things which the
driver of: a intoor ear should do with-
out fail is to take the trouble to
learn traffic regulations- and then
scrupuously observe them. Motor
accidents are 'increasing at such a
rate thatevery precaution should be
taker to prevent them. And acci-
dents are usually the result of reek-
lessness, carelessness, poor judg-
ment or panic.
During hot weather it necessary
to "vary the diet in order to keep fin-
icky appetites up to the mark. Plen-
ty of fresh fruit, green vegetables
and cool, tempting deserts are what
will be most relished but the house-
wife needs tb see that her family is
also supplied' wtih sufficient nourish-

cups milk mixed with 1 cupful water
in the top of a double boiler. Pour
a little of this scalded mixture on the
chocolate mixture and blend. Add this
to the rentaining scalded milk and
