Some Helpful Ideas
For Homemade Rugs
MAKE
YOUR OWN
¥ OOKING for a hobby this
•*-' winter? Why not take up rug
making. It’s one of the most re
warding things you can do and
without costly equipment or mate
rial! And best of all, you don’t
need to have great artistic talent.
Anyone — even beginners — can
make a lovely rug at home.
There are many types to choose from.
Hooked, braided, knitted, crocheted, tuft
ed, woven. All of them can add an indi
vidual note to your home.
Braided and woven rugs lend a cozy
air before the fireplace or next to your
bed. Navajo rugs with Indian designs are
perfect for a child’s room and, if you
have Early American furniture, flowered
hooked rugs are particularly suitable.
Materials needn't cost you anything
more than a quick trip to the rag bag.
Old sacking, coarse linen, strips cut from
discarded clothing, blankets and sheets
plus dye for the colors you choose are
all you need.
Send for our booklet No. 94 which de
scribes in detail the methods for each
type of rug. How to make a loom your
self, sample patterns and otherwise help
ful suggestions.

Watch Your
Kidneys/
Help Them Cleanse the Blood
of Harmful Body Waste
Your kidneya are constantly filtering
waste matter from the blood stream. But
kidneys sometimes lag in their work—do
not act as Nature intended—fail to re
move imparities that, if retained, may
aoison the system and upset the whole
7ody machinery.
Symptoms may be nagging backache,
persistent headache, attacks of dizziness,
getting up nights, swelling, puffiness
under the eyes—a feeling of nervoua
anxiety and loss of pep and strength.
Other signs of kidney or bladder dis
order are sometimes burning, scanty or
too frequent urination.
There should be no doubt that prompt
treatment is wiser th^n neglect. Use
Doan’s Pills. Doan’s have been winning
new friends for more than forty years.
They have a nation-wide reputation.

Tables Turned
T WO glamor girls boarded a
crowded streetcar, and one of
them whispered to the other;
“Watch me embarrass a seat from
a male passenger.”
Pushing her way through the
straphangers she turned all of her
charms upon a gentleman who
looked substantial and embarrass
able. "My dear Mr. Brown,” she
gushed loudly, "fancy meeting you
on the streetcar. Am I glad to see
you. Why you’re almost a stranger.
My, but I’m tired.”
The sedate gentleman looked up
at the girl, whom he had never be
fore seen, and as he rose, said pleas
antly. "Sit down, Bertha, my girL
It isn’t often that I see you out on
washday. No wonder you’re tired.
By the way, don’t deliver the wash
ing till Wednesday. My wife is going
to the district attorney’s office to
see whether she can get your hus
band out of jail!”
Papa Made Good
George, the not too handsome and
not too intelligent son of a well-to-do
family, recently confessed to his
mother that he had fallen in love
with a shop girl and intended mar
rying her. When his mother object
ed, he countered, “Well, mother,
you were a poor girl when you mar
ried father, weren’t you?”
“Yes,” his mother admitted, "but
I married him because I knew he
would succeed.”
“Well,” proclaimed George, with
becoming candor, “Betty is marry
ing me because he did succeed.”
Hang on to It!
Diogenes was looking for an
honest man. “How are yon do
ing?” asked the wayfarer.
“Oh, I’m lucky,” replied Diog
enes, "I still have my lantern.”
Rural Retort
The big raw-boned farmer boy was
sitting on the bank of the creek
fishing, when a visitor from the city
came up to him and sneeringly re
marked: "Your time must not be
very valuable to you, young fellow.
I’ve been watching you for three
hours, and you haven’t got a single
bite.”
“Well, stranger,” the boy re
joined, “my time is not worth much
to me, but it would be too valuable
for me to waste three hours of it
watching a fellow fish that warn’t
gettin’ a bite.”
She Wore the Pants
A woman was helping her hus
band pick out a new suit, and the
two were in violent disagreement
over the one he should purchase.
Finally she gave in and said, “Well,
go ahead and please yourself. After
all, I guess you’re the one who will
wear the suit.”
The man looked up meekly and
said in a quiet voice, “Well, dear,
I did figure that I’d probably be
wearing the coat and vest anyway.”
When Words Count
Returning to Glasgow after a few
months’ absence, Sandy called at
the importing office to chat with his
friend, Angus.
“My goodness, Angus!” he ex
claimed. "Ye hae lost yur terrible
stutter. How did ye accomplish it?”
“Necessity, . Sandy, necessity!”
Angus replied. “I hae been tele
phonin' America a lot lately.”
IGNORANCE IS BLISS
A lad from Brooklyn turned up in
a mess hall in a Texas camp holding
the rattles from a rattlesnake.
“Where’d you get ’em?” a KP
asked.
“Off’a big woim!”
Sad, But True
The city editor was lecturing the
cub reporter again.
“You use too many words, Wads
worth,” he said. “You say here that
he was poor but honest. Why not
just say he was honest?
“Again, you say that he was with
out money or friends. You’re wast
ing space. Simply say that he was
without money.”

wife?
