uuum ue conveniently obtainable at
time when needed.
To provide a plsce for such article, cup
boards have been created. Cupboards are
of various aorts and planned according to
the uses for which they are intended.
Starting with tha reception hall, a hall seat
with a hinted top lid ia oftan ueed as a
convenient cupboard In which ta keeft nitt
bers and other rainy day apparel. In tha
living room or library are built-in book,
eases which are one form of cupboards In
which are kept the books. In the lower
i'art of the bookcases there should be pro
vided a row of drawers In whir-h tn- kn
magaalnes, newspapers and other things
needed about a library which do not present
as ornamental appearance as the books-.
Well kept books are real ornaments, In
fact they are often used solely for this
purpose, and for this reason they should be
rretected from the dust which through sad
infjequency of use Invariably fathers upon
them if they are not protected. The. beet
way to do this Is to provide glass. Clear
glass Is preferable to leaded glass, for the
books alone are ornament enough. All"
bookcase shelves should be adjustable. ri
fact every cupboard in the house contain
ing ahelves should have adjustable cleats
on each side and the backs of all cup
boards should be sealed.
In the dining room cupboards are usually
provided either In the form of a china
I ciosei or a siflenoard. Since the latter Is
-- i..-nnHi.i f Ul y VVC, r?1
deal of eupboard space which Is provided
in a built-in sideboard should be planned
with some attention to Its requirements.
There ahould be at least two shallow small
drawers and one wide shallow drawer, th
wide drawer for doili-s and centerpieces,
the narrow drawers for napklna and silver
ware. . The silverware drawer should be
divided off Into compartments for the
various kinds of silver. There should be at
least One wide shelf concealed by a wooden
door in which to keep tablecloths with as
few folds as possible. The rest of this
sideboard can be divided into oupboards or
drawers for verloue purposea in a manner
giving the most pleasing appearance.
When a china closet Is provided, ' it is
best to ha.ve it against the wall which
divides the- dining room from either the
pantry er kitchen,, with wooden panel doors
on the pantry or kitchen side, and glass
doors on the dining room side. The drawers
underneath the counter of the china closet
should aJso run clear through and have
handle at both ends. Thla makes it pos
sible to place things In the closet from the
kitchen or pantry side and take them out
from the dining room side, which saves
many steps. Pantry and kitchen cupboards
should either extend to the ceiling or else
have a slant roof built over the top of
them above the line of convenient reach,
so that the top of the cupboards win not
become a catch-all or resting place tor
dust. The slant roof makes it easy to dust
off and gives finish to the top. In moat
cases It Is best, however, to run the cup
boards to the eeillng. While It must be
admitted that this does not look so well,
kitchen and pantry cupboards are not tor
ornamentation, and the upper part of the
cupboards, which srould have separate

drawers, caa be used for many things not
needed every day. For example, fruit. J&rB,
after their contents havf been taken .out,
can be placed into upper oupboards, there
to, stay for many months until canning
sesaon comes again. They are entirely out
Af -the way and their destruction is less
probable than It they were Jostled about on
helves used for other purposes.
" Khchen and pantry cupboards are divided
into twu parts, the lower' part being below
what Is called the. counter, the" counter be
ing placed from thirty Inches to thirty-four
Inches above the floor, according to prefer
ence, thirty inches betng the standard table
height and best for short women. Below
the counter there should be drawers of
several sizes and cupboards ' containing
shelves. Above the counter it is best to
leave an open space of about eighteen
inches which makes a convenient table top
handy en which to set things and espe
cially Vben entertaining, these counter tope
prove very cotvAient. The cupboard above
is placed on Iron or wood brackets as well
as being secured' to the partition behind.
AU kitchen and pantry .: cupboard -door
should be wood doors, never glass,, tor ob
vious reasons. ''-." ' -
In a cupboard, below the counter top,
there should be provided at tne most con
venient location, preferably Just near or
under a window. Built in flour bins. Under
the sink board a bottomless sliding door
containing small brass rods en which- to
hang towels is very convenient. On these
the towels can be hung down and the doors
slid under the sink, where the dish towets
are out of tTie way 'white drying.
The wash stand and chiffonier and other
furniture of this nature are really Intended
for cupboards ea casters, designed to serve
an ornamental as well as useful purpose.
In addition to these, however, some cup
boards are also provided. For example:
In the bathroom there should be a small
nv ' clue cabinet which Is usually located
Jul iver the lavatory and contains a mir- i
ror door in front. The shelves in this eabi
net should be adjustable so thst they can
be arranged according to the height of bot
tles put in It. The medicine cabinet should
never be placed on the outside wall of a
frame house in cold cllniates, for when
the doors sre closed, the contents within
will invariably freese.
hen a linen room Is provided, cupboards
i r'nsbie to open shelves, and in wis
'ttd a'so run to the
Celling, being divided inte three sections,
the lower; sedtion containing either drawers
or cupboards, according to preference. The
upper sactlo, up to six and one-half feet
above the floor, should have one set of
drawers, and .-above that another set of
drawers which can only be reached by a
chair or ladder, and which will be used for
the storage of off-season wearing apparel.
Cedar linen cupboards are a very splendid
thlng.'andreyermiTie proof, provided that
no varnish is put upon the woodwork. It is
also V good idea to seal the entire room,
floor, walls and ceiling with cedar flooring,
left smooth, 'but unvarnished. When
clothes closets are large enough to contain
a oupboard full of sliding drawers, such a
cupboard should be made as follows: In
the lower part provide several deep draw
ers for old and new shoes. Above these
up to five feet high, place a row of wide
shallow drawers, the drawers should not
be less than three feet wide and preferably
four feet wide, and verv shallow, not more
than three inches deep inside. These draw
ers are Intended to contain but a few gar
ments laid out full length In each drawer,
such aa skirts trousers., and other wear
ing apparel which should not be folded.
Placing but two or three garments in each
drawer makes them easily obtainable, with
out disturbing a great deal of clothing.
Above these drawers' should be placed
'large cupboards, to be. used as hat boxes,
but the writer will frankly admit that he
Is at an utter loss to state Just how large
a woman's hatbox should be. Each woman
must, therefore, decide this point to suit'
her own preference or requirements! It Is
suggested, however, that a hatbox four
feet square would probably be the most
advisable since It could be arranged inside
to contain hats of any sire that fashion
might require.

Optimistic Report

The Burlington freight offices are In re
ceipt of a Nebraska earn crop report made
by the Nye-Bchnaider-rbwler company,
that operates elevators and warehouses at
nearly every station on the Burlington,
Union Pacific and Northwestern railroads
In Nebraska. The report ia made up from
reports submitted by the company em
ployes and from personal investigations of
the members of tha company, and bears
data of August 15.
Unlike the report of the Cavers Klevator
company, published Friday, the Nye-Sohnelder-Fowler
compilation is optimistic
but not along the boom line. The summary
places the corn crop of tha east half of
the state tar ahead of that of last year
and above tbe average of the last ten
years. to
' The tcnort describes the corn aa being
well sfd. a good stand and rapidly pass
