So get rid of things which you don't intend to take in good time. My plan is to collect as many as possible of the smaller pieces of furniture, pictures, rushlona and so on, and put them into nn urred room to be sorted out,
Those which are to be kept are then cleaned and taken round to the new home a day or two before the move, the others can be collected by the dust- mon orient uft to a saleroom in good time,

Now the klichen has usurped this foremost place in the home-owner's affections. Everyone is kitchen con- scious now. Every gadget; every bit of furniture and every utensil must not only do its work well but must be "good to look on" into the bargain.
A short time ngo leisured house- wives left the buying of kitclien utensils and so on to their amals or cook-boys. Now the mistress of the house herself Inspects and orders then, and knows a good deal about their worldng, too. Perhaps that is why everything connected with the kitchen is so attractive to the eye these days.

Fringes are Fashionable
HREADED through satin, fringes give the effect of Chinese embroiderics and are an
pervading many of the fashions this season.
Our artist has sketched one of the newest ways of cheering up a style that is too plainly tailored.
Another way of utilising fringe is to give a tunic effect from thic waist, or to make the lower half of sleeves entirely of fringe nitached to a tight wristband. Fringe across the rckline gives n dressy able to slyles that would otherwise go undecorated.
