H0sehOId Hints.

Do not try to keep your house
warm by getting a new mortgage
on it.
Keep your woodpile indoors. =
Woodpiles are frequently. warped
by the night air if left outdoors.
See that your socks are we'll
darned before Christmas arrives.
A good way to cool champaign
is to place it in the coal chute
on a snowy night and leave
the coal-hole open. If no one falls
on it and breaks it it will be nicely
trapped before morning.
A nice, harmless home game
for these winter evenings is pro
gressive guessing, in which you
and your wife and invited friends
try to guess how many pounds
there are in the last ton of Goa
you received.
If you wish to retain your equa
nimity always go down your front
steps on your feet. The habit
some men have of sliding down
the steps on cold winter mornings
is, to say the least, not dignih ed.
Young and timid wives will be
pleased to know that Mr.. Edison
is perfecting trigger attachment
for flats and houses, by pulling
which the cook may be discharged
without any unpleasantness.
If time hangs heavy on YOU
hands buy a chatelaine watch.
They are extremely fast and mex
pensive.
Use every article Of household
furniture for the purpose for which
it was intended. Do not try te
get the dust out of carpets with the
egg beater, and if you have a
daughter do not let her flirt witt
the potato masher.
When your library shelves be
come too limited for your books
put some of the volumes behinc
the others. The borrowed books
go best behind.
Wet feet should be avoided.
This rule need not be carried to the
extent of leaving them out of the
tub, however, on Saturday nights.
Castor oil must not be used fol
Illuminating purposes however bad
the gas may be.
Do not speak Grossly to you
servant. Eye her but say nothing
Keep the snow shoveled off your
sidewalk. 1t is better to pay SC
cents to an able-bodied tramp fol
shoveling off than to give s., ooo
to a man with a broken leg, who
fell and fractured his limb in front
of your house.

Christmas Weather Proverbs.

A warm Christmas cold Easter.
A green Christmas "A white
Easter
A wind on Xmas days, trees will
bring much fruit.
A green Christmas makes fat
graveyard. A light Christmas, a
heavy sheaf.
If Christmas finds a bridge he'll
break it; if he finds none he'll make
one.
If ice will bear man before
Christmas, it will not bear man af-
terward.
The shepherd would rather see his
wife enter the stable on Christmas
day than the sun.
If the sun shines through the ap,
pie tree on Christmas day there will
be an abundant crop the following
year.
If Christmas day on Saturday fall,
That winters to be dreaded by al,
1t shall be so full of great tempest
That it shall slay both man and
beast;
Great store shall fall Of fruit and
corn,
And old folk die, many one,
What woman that day of chile
doth travail,
She shall give birth in great peril;
And children born that day by faith
In half year shall meet with death
The summer shall he wet and i'll;
Thou shalt suffer aught thou steal
Thou diest Of sickness do thee take

The question Of Brce ONO citizen
ship Is likely % prove more troublesome
than that gentleman and ms friends al
FIRST thought. II Alr. Bryce IS to be
elected Senator from OHIO, ne must BE-
a citizen Oh that state. But # he IS
citizen Of that state, ne must pay some
taxes which he has not paid, while he
was supposed 70 be a citizen of New
York.
The bulk of Brice's fortune is in
stocks and bonds. They are taxable Ia
OHIO. A wide-awake citizen OF Cncin-
natl, named Morgenthaler, has a con-
tract with Allen county, among others,
70 discover taxable properly not on the
tax duplicate. He receives a percentage
OF the taxes thereon as compensation
FOR his discovery.
When TINS Jealous individual learned,
10 his surprise, that Brice claimed 4
residence in Lima, Allen county, h.
thought ne shifted some big per
oentages. Finding that Brice's citizen
ship IN Ohio didn't seem to have been
of the tax paying kind, he politely
notified him to walk up to the county
treasurer's Office and settle up. Con-
s.dering that the treasurer's office IS In
Lima, handy by to Mr.. Buce's home,
be naturally expected him TO walk
right IN some day after breakfast and
settle up Ike a genuine, patriotic Buck
eye citizen. But ne hasn't done il and
doesn't show any disposition to do SO.
Mr. Brice's Ohio citizenship Is worth
nothing 20 HIM without the Senator
ship. Vow the question that agitates
him IS whether the Senatorship is worth
the expense of the contest plus the
hack taxes
