Cleaning Carpets.
From Good Housekeeping.


Hang the carpet over a elothes-line, sup

swing clear of the ground. 1t may hang
double and be turned after washing one
side. Take an ordinary hose, turn the
water on full head and play over the car
pet standing near enough to give the car
pet as strong a stream as possible, and
going carefully over the whole surface.
Then after the water has drained off, the
carpet may be turned and the other side

hanging till it is dry. The water will
drive through the carpet in shower, and

Giant Spiders of Ceylon.

Far up in the mountains of Ceylon and
India there is a spider that spins web
like bright, yellowish silk, the central net
of which is FIVE feet in diameter, while the
supporting lines, or guys as they are called,
measure sometimes ten or twelve feet long,
and riding quickly in the early morning
YOU may dash rightintoit, the stout threads
twining around your face like lace veil,
while, as the creature who has woven 1t
takes up his position in the middle, he
generally catches you right on the nose,
and. though he seldom bites or stings, the
contact of his large body and long legs is
anything but pleasant. Ifyou forget your
self and try to catch him, bite he will, and,
although not venomous, his jaws are as
powerful as birds beak, and you will not
forget the encounter.
The bodies Of these spiders are very
handsomely decorated, being bright gold
or scarlet underneath, while the upper part
is covered with the most delicate slate col
ored fur. So strong are the webs that
birds the size of larks are frequently caught
therein, and even the small but powerful
scaly lizard falls victim. writer says
that he has often sat and watched the yell
low and scarlet monster, measuring, when
waiting for his prey with his legs stretched
out, fully six inches, striding across the
middle of the net, and noted the rapid
manner in which he wound his stout threads
around the unfortunate captive. He usually
throws the coil about the head till the
wretched victim is first blinded and then
choked In many unfrequeDted dark hooks
Of the jungle you may come across most
perfect skeletons of small birds caught in
these terrible snares, the strong folds of
which prevent the delicate bones from
falling to the ground after the wind and
weather have dispersed the flesh and feath,
ers from the body.

In many parts of the country farmers
are prohibiting the painting and posting OF
business signs on their barns, fences, etc.
They have become disguised with that mode
of advertising, besides they viii not longer
submit TO having their property dsubed up
with them. The farmers are right in this
matter The best way in the world TO ad-
vertise is in the newspapers. They 20
regularly into families aud are read care
fully by the whole family; and If the neigh
bors happen to be Of the kind that don't
take papers, or 'haven time 10 read, why
they also slip over and peruse the family
paper, so you see the newspaper Is bound
to be read, whether it is paid for or not,
thus making it the very best advertising
medium.

HOW no MAKE AN oMELET

First open out two nice fresh eggs
Be careful not to spatter;
Whip up the whites to stifFest foam,
The yolks to a stiff batter.
Add to the yolks a little milk,
About a gill you'd better
Then season as you have been taught
With a little salt and pepper.
Then lastly add the beaten whites,
And stir in very lightly;
Unless you heed with care this rule,
Your dish may be unsightly
Have ready in a fryingpan
A good-sized piece of butter,
Put ON the stove and wait until
Your pan begins to sputterl
When this shall hiss, yon1l know its hot
And for the mixture ready;
So put it in, and do not spill
Your hand you must keep steady.
Now watch ii till the foam is set,
Then place in a warm oven:
Be careful not to let it seoreh,
That would look very sloyen.
This omelet think should cook
Two minutes to the letter;
And when It's done should look like gold,
And taste great deal better!
Reverse upon a nice warm plate,
Be sure you do not break it;
With pleasure to the dining room
Now you may quickly take it.
