THE PETER PAN COTTAGE.
That some women are born home
makers has never been more conclu
sively demonstrated than this summer
by a trio of Augusta women who have
evolved something of nothing, and suc
ceeded in making a deplorably cheer
less cabin one of the most comfortable
and attractive cottages on Sullivan's
Island.
, Every one who has been to the is
land this summer knows “The Peter
Pan” cottage. Its proximity to the
hotel makes it a very desirable place
to stop and its general air of comfort
Is one of its chief charms. When
these entertaining young women, who
■wished to spend the summer on the
island, first took this cottage they
•were novices in the matter of "fur
nished” cottages. Furnished, was a
misnomer. There was absolutely
nothing in the cottage as they had
expected or as they wished. There
were beds but no mattresses; there
•were pitchers but no wash-bowls;
The pink and
white of youth.
Do you keep these tints in your iace ?
If you are one of the wise women who
use
Hagan’s Magnolia Balm
we know you look ten years younger
than many of your neighbors who are
really younger than you are.
Price 75 cents. Sold by all druggists.
AT THE GRINDSTONE
The man who tolls on and on,
just able to make ends meet and
getting nothing ahead, is said to
have his nose at the grindstone all
the time. Use business methods
In your private affairs and spend
LESS than you make, and you will
be on the high road to wealth.
Open a bank account with SIO.OO,

rial what the amount is. Making
the start is the important thing.

there were washstands that did duty
as bureaux and tables that substituted
the washstands. There were no cups
with handles and no saucers; there
were no chairs and the kitchen stove
was so small that it seemed almost an
imposition to cook on it.
Nothing daunted, however, these
young women started to make things
comfortable and so well did they suc
ceed that those who did not see the
well-nigh hopeless posibilities would
find it hard to believe that the at
tractive little “Peter Pan” is the happy
result.
Of the four rooms that were intend
ed for bed rooms only two could be
utilised for that purpose,but these were
large and well ventilated, the fourth
was used for servants’ quarters. The
hall was converted Into a dining room
and beautifully does it fulfil its
mission. The bed rooms w’ere
all furnished with dainty little sash
curtains which protect and at the
same time give a home-like look to
the apartments and go far towards
the furnishing. The washstands were
covered with fresh linen scarfs and
so well do they take the place of bu
reaux that regular bureaux would
seem an absurdity. The little tables;
proved Just the thing for washstands
land the beds, when they were properly
placed and made up seemed cooler
and more comfortable from having
been put up by the occupants. It is
true that drinking from cups without
handles was a little too primitive for
these up-to-date young women, hut a
trip to Charleston remedied this draw
back.
The stoves diminutivenesa detracted
nothing from its usefulness and the
I dainty concoctions turned out by the
presiding genius of the culinary de
partment. is such as to make “The Pe
|ter Pan” one of the moßt desirable
places to receive an invitation to. As
