TO RESTORE FINISH. Moat brides soon bewail th fact that furniture has lost its "new" look. The heen of grandma's "highboy" Is '"n lot beneath a coating of city iust. The library table soon shows , e.gns of last night's card game.
V simple little formula that has
been known to help the following: To a half-bucket of water, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Using a soft cloth, wipe off the furniture. Follow this with a brisk polishing with a dry cloth. You will be surprised to see the brilliant finish that Is revealed. Mahogany, particularly, is benefitted by this treatment.
FEATHERS IN DEMAND Milliners generally believe that the popularity of the ostrich feathers will steadiy increase as autumn advances like every other article of dress, will be considerably increased in price.
INITIALS JEN TAPES. College girls, going away to school, have you begun to mark your lingerie with tape initials? If not, begin right off. For If you expect to keep track of handkerchiefs, hose, underwear, towels and wash clothes, they must be clearly marked. Tapes with any combination of two or three Initials embroidered in red and blue may be bought at any of the downtown stores If you wish your entire name embroidered in the individual tapes, you must hurry your order in asi it takes several
weeks to get an order filled. And. then
after you have them on hand, they must be hummed on the dozetjs of things that make up your wardrobe. It isn't hard to do, but it takes tinie to do it. Yet the tape initials must be bothered with.
EVEN THE HOSE ARE BEADED. So much in demand are beads that many shops are showing beaded silk stockings to match the beaded frocks with which they are to he worn. Of course, these silken beaded stockings are expensive, but they are new and according to one's fancy pleasing so they expect to be much in vogue. Among the useful garments to be Included In the summer wardrobe' is the cape of knitted wool. One noted recently was old blue and had a large collar of gray angora.
USES FOR OSTRICH Ostrich feathers are made Into all sorts of Interesting trimming devices. It is quite taken for granted that ostrich should be a dress trimming quite as much or more that a hat trimming, and the French have been especially clever in devising ways to ake it attractive.

is the one thing in this world that is recognized
by every living thing. It is the most powerful, in- - vigorating, exhilarating and nourishing stimulant that is not actually a substance. Music is a thing we cannot "See," "Smell," "Feel" or "Taste"; it is susceptible only to the one mortal sense of "Hearing." Still, it acts as a narcotic on all the other four senses as it causes those whom it surrounds to "See" the world, in a new aiid pleasing light; obnoxious odors are dispelled and nostrils stand aquiver under the hypnotic spell; the entire being "Feels" the rythmatic beat of music feet shuffle in unison with the quick tempo of the fox-trot or one step; the heart palpitates rapidly at the warm glow of the lovers' waltz; the soul cries out in agony under the terrific emotional strain of the majoj- chords of obituary solos, while the entire human being heart, soul anJ body succumbs to the beautiful songs of praise, love and devotion of God's church hymns. Music has redeemed millions of lost souls where the word of man bes failed. It has driven millions to success where their pathways have been barred by seemingly insurmountable barriers. Warriors go singing into battle and die with a song on their lips; the victors march gallantly home amid the trumpeting music and home folks sing songs of praise. Mankind is born, reared and dies amid music
The bird's melodious sons has charmed the reptile in time to stay his vicious sting The lion in the jungle has paused at the hunters whistle and the purring of the kitten has cooled the ire of -the canine. A murderer's nerve failed when a street vender ground out a boyhood strain

(P
Music is the one thing wo crave when in sorrow, it is the one thing we cry out- for in our poverty; it is that which spurs us on to success it replaces many luxuries And above all it is the one thing we can all partake of in one form or another.
We know there is music on earth; the Bible tells us there is music in Heaven. But nowhere has man found evidence of music .existing in hell, oh! what a desolate place .that must be! Dear Reader: We are here to supply you with music or the means of making music. We do not claim to be the only people in town selling musical instruments or that ou- merchandise is the best on earth. We do not claim superioritv or lord it over our competitors to gain your patronag. We are your humble servants ready at all times to wait upon you and provide those things that go to make life happy. We a.k you to recall our various advertisements, or statements made direct, by us, and see whether or not you judge us to be egotistical. In your buying, we only ask one thing: Patronize your home merchants. Chicago dealers are not beautifying your city, neither 'ill they stand by you when Death, Accident, Sickness, Fire. Strikes etc. afflict you. Yours truly, FRANK H. REXTREW.
