only covers the, disfgured surface, but
restores the wood to its original color,
and leaves luster upon the surface.
Put on with a wooden cloth, and when

To PREVENT the soles Of boots or shoes
from squeaking, rasp with coarse rasp
the insole and outsole and every other
piece of leather that comes in contact in
friction by the action of the foot then
apply freely good wheat or rye paste.
If this is freely attended to from heel to
toe, the boot or shoe will not squeak.
RECIPE for pleasant and durable per-
fume: Take thirty drops Of oil of berga-
mot and the same quantity of oil of
lavender; add fifteen drops OF neroli, five
drops of oil of verbena, and the same of
oil of cloves; of essence of musk, amber
girls. and jasmine each half a 6Eachm.
Mix all in two ounces of rectifed spirit
of wine, and you will have the famous

To MAKE the hair stay in crimp, take
cents worth of gum arabic, and add
to it just enough boiling water to dis
solve it. When dissolved, add enough
alcohol to make it rather thin. Let it
stand all night, and then bottle it to
prevent the alcohol from evaporating.
This put on the hair at night, after it is
done up in paper or pins, will make it
stay in crimp the hottest day, and is
perfectly harmless. s oa
One who has tried everything says
that, after an experience of fifteen years,
he has found nothing equal to the fol-
lowing rs cement for leather betting I:
Common glue and isinglass, equal parts,
soaked for ten hours in just enough
water to cover them. Bring gradually
to boiling heat, and add pure tannin
until the whole becomes ropy or appears
like the white of eggs. Buff off the
surfaces to be joined, apply this cement,
and clamp firmly. sas l.ts1 b.rg 1911
THE following is said to be an excel
lent method of fastening cloth to the top
of tables, desks, ETC.: Make mixture
of two and quarter pounds of wheat
-four, two tablespoonful of powder d
resin, and two tablespoonful of pow
dered alum rub the mixture in n suita-
BILE vessel, with water, to a uniform,
smooth paste; transfer this to a small
kettle over the fire, and stir till the
paste is perfectly homogeneous without
Jumps. As soon as the mass has become
SO stiff that the stirrer remains upright
in it, transfer it to another vessel and
cover it up SO that no skin may form on
its surface. This paste is applied in q
very thin layer to the surface of the
table; the cloth, or leather, is then laid
and pressed upon it, and smoothed with a
roller. The ends are cut off after dry
ing. If leather is to be fastened on,
this must first be moistened with water.
The paste is then applied, and the leather
rubbed smooth with a cloth. zoe 'g

10 Treat a Cold.

When you get chilly all over, and
away into your bones, and begin to
sniffie and almost struggle tor your
breath, just begin in time, and your
tribulations need not last very. long.
Get some powdered borax, and snuff
the dry powder up your nostrlls.
Get your camphor bottle, smell it
frequently, pour some on your hand
kerchiet,, and wipe your nose with it
whenever needed. Your nose will
not get sore, and you will soon won
der what's become OF your cold.
Begin this treatment in the forenoon
and keep up at intervals until you go
to bed, and you will sleep as we'll as
you ever did.

replied that no change was given.

BONNIE HANDS THAT MAKE GOOD
BREAD.

From the Maryland Farmer.
/ own the charm of rounded arms,
OF ewes that loves soft luster shed,
Of raven hair and tresses fair,
OF cheeks that toy with white and red,
OF pOuting lips where Cupid dips
The arrows that to hearts are sped;
But none of these my fancy please
Like bonnie hands that make good bread.
Some hands have art to move the heart.
BY making musc's sweet appeal;
Some borrow dyes from perfect Skies,
And through the canvass make us feel
S ome make the dress fair forms caress,
To win the heart and turn the head
For me, more rare, beyond compare.
Are the bonnie hands that make good
bread.
Cav maiden vain, the rustling train,
Those jeweled hands so idly crossed;
That idle minds can pleasure find
In every hour ignobly lost
Bnt Pll not seek. whener | wed,
For jeweled hands or gold or lands,
But the bonnie HANDS that make good
bread.
