The Household By FRANCES MARSHALL. DECKING OUT FOR FASTER. Of late years there has been less and less tendency on the part of femininity to deck herself out in new and summery apparel on Easter Sunday. But at the same time there has been perhaps a growing tendency to celebrate Easter by special decorations in the house. When Easter gifts are exchanged they often take the form of flowers and these alone give a festive air to the house.

Moreover most of us make a special effort to have the appropriately decorated for and even for table, breakfast on Easter morning; so what we have discarded in the way of raiment we have taken on in the way of household furbishing. Nothing is lovelier than the simple spring flowers for decoration on the Easter table. Jonquils and tulips, daffodils, scillas, snowdrops or any other of the flowering spring bulbscare not only charming they are seasonable, are moderately inexpensive. You may be fortunate enough to have some bulb blossoms from your own garden--some of the earliest, like crocuses, snow-drops or scillas. Next to real spring flowers come those of paper.

Tulips and daffo, dils can be very satisfactorily reproduced in paper. Daffodils especially are successful. Even in life they are stiff and hence lend themselves better than many or the more willowy flowers to reproduction in crepe paper. It is possible to make little holders and cases for ices in the form of tulips in some natural color. Figured crepe paper comes from which daffodils can be cut out and pasted on small blank cards for place cards.

If there are children in the family Easter isn't Easter without tiny chicks Ordinances or bunnies have of been some passed sort. in some places prohibiting the use of live chicks as an Easter favor. Whether such an ordinance is enforced where you live or not you ought to frown on the practice of using live chicks for Easter favors. They are almost sure to suffer and you can buy little toy chicks for a small sum that are quite as attractive to the young girl or boy as their live prototypes. You can also buy figured crepe paper showing chicks and bunnies, from which these little creatures can be cut and pasted on stiff cardboard and, by the aid of props, made to stand up in grass which is no more than shredded green crepe paper.

Yellow is an accepted Easter color for decoration, so you can plan to have yellow icing on cakes. A salad with mayonnaise and perhaps lemon ice or lemon jelly for dessert will be adding an effective touch for the dinner. The College club will hold their annual luncheon Monday, April 23, at the Portage Country club.

water over you in her fright." He smiled constrainedly, and I made a brave effort to return the smile. But I could not accomplish it. Indeed, I was glad to be able to keep back the tears, which I knew instinctively would hurt him. He undressed me as tenderly as a woman would have done, and wrapping a warm bathrode over my nightdress, for I was shivering as if from a chill, tucked me in between the blankets of my bed. Then he drew a chair to the bedside and sat down.

"Are you sure you are all 1 right now?" he asked. "Your color is coming back." "Perfectly sure," I returned, "and I am 80 sorry to have made you so much trouble." "Don't say that," he returned a trifle sharply. "It is so meaningless. Tell me, do you wish me to remain with you, or would you rather be alone for awhile?" Madge and Dicky Face it Together. When I married Dicky I did not think the time would ever.

come when I would look him the face and tell him a deliberate falsehood. But at his question, "Do you wish me to remain with you, or would you rather be alone for awhile?" I answered quickly, "Oh! I could not let you Dicky!" when all the time it seemed to me I could not bear any human presence near me until I had time to The Old Gardener Says Amateurs sometimes set out a strawberry bed and never get a strawberry. That because they have planted kinds which are not self-fertile. Let some other variety be planted near them, and there will be plenty of fruit.

But the look on my husband's face, when I had awakened from the swoon which the a my brother-cousin was reported killec had caused, had warned me that on my own actions at this crisis might depend the future happiness of Dicky and me. Always insanely jealous of Jack Bickett living, was afraid that he believed me to be in love with my brother-cousin; a belief that would, of course, be fostered by my fainting at the news of his death.

I must do nothing which would in any way strengthen that belief. So I uttered the 11.04 truth bravely and plausibly. Across Dicky's face shot a look of relief. He put out his hand and clasped mine, and said softly: "Try to sleep a little, can you not?"
