Two female tramps nave just reached
Luzerne county, their birthplace, after
being on the road for nearly three
months. They stan ted from Kansas
City, and the greater part of the distance
they travelled in cattle cars. They be-
came tramps through force of circum-
stances. They are sisters, and two years
ago married railroad men and went west.
One of the husbands died, and the other,
who proved a worthless fellow, soon
after disappeared. The sisters now
found themselves in the midst of power
~ and among strangers. They could
not get along, and they pinned for their
old home in Pennsylvania, but could not
raise the money to pay their fares.
One evening they hit upon the novel
idea of dressing in male attire and
tramping home. They deliberated long,
and finally came to the conclusion that
this was the only way they could get
home. They accordingly made prepara-
tons for the journey. They were well
up in the ways and doings of railroad
brakemen, as they had often heard their
husbands talk shop" One morning
early the sisters donned suits of clothes
that had beer worn by their husbands.
They were black, greasy and dirty, and
in every way in keeping with a tramp's
outfit. The women then cut their hair
short and greasened and blackened their
faces and hands and made their long
journey.-Philadelphia Ledger.

Very few people look upon washing
with tire Importance that it really de-
serves. They think that the hands and
face only call for special attention. The
whole body should be washed at least
once a day, and in some cases may call
for twice. The water used should be
warm, and, ms the infant grows, the
temperature of the water should be re-
duced. You must remember that sweat
is coming from our skin at all times. but
it is only when we work very hard or
take brisk exercise that we are aware Of
il. Now 1t is this sS-oat that causes the
unpleasant smell that dirty babies have,
and this same sweat helps the dirt =
stick to the body. If you therefore
allow your baby to remain dirty you are
running its health. The cooler the water
that You accustom the child to the more
the nerves of the skin are stimulated and
the circulation helped. Be careful to
dry the body quickly and thoroughly

very carefully. Everybody is familiar
with ~the'success he has achieved, but it

painstaking and exhaustive study on tho

The stroke today is a masterpiece of gee

grow ripe and cheap and plenty buy of
them generously, and eat them as nearly

seem extravagant, but n little thought
will show you that it is not. The first

Women Who Had Ready wit.

Some time ago something happened
over in Brooklyn which gives color to
the claim that women are reader witted
than men. A little girl in attempting
to light the gas in the baby's sleeping
room set fire to the lace curtains. Three
young women who were walking in the
adjoining yard heard the outcry of the
child, and snatching up some watering
pots which stood near by rushed into the
house and up into the bedroom. The
fire had by this time spread to the bed
on which the baby lay. They first
poured the contents of their watering
pots upon the bed, then carried both the
children to a place of safety, and then
turned to aid the mother in tearing
down the draperies and extinguishin,
the flames. All this was planned ana
executed 80 promptly that before the
fire engines could reach the spot the fire
was out, and the young women were re-
ceiving the congratulations of some men
who had stood in the street looking on,
and who had not enough presence of
mind in the face of the danger to offer
assistance until all need for 1t was past.

Here is q fluid that will easily clean
the gloves, and when they are exposed
to the air for a short time the odor
passes away: Put into a three pint bottle
one quart of benzine, one ounce of ether,
one ounce of chloroform and half an
ounce Of wintergreen. Shake and cork
tightly.
To clean the gloves put them on the
hands, and wetting a piece Of clean white
cloth or a small sponge with the fluid
sponge the gloves quickly, rubbing quite
hard in the parts most soiled. Take an
other clean piece of cloth and rub the
gloves till they are perfectly dry. Now
slowly and carefully work the gloves off
the hands, and hang them in the fresh
air for half an hour. All odor will have
disappeared by that time Parloa

A well known lawyer and his broker
friend dropped their tickets into the
glass aquarium IN the city hall elevated
station, and as the lawyer stopped to
buy the evening papers he jerked down
and pinned to his friends back the large
yellow placard placed under the latest
editions and reading, "Out Today"
Hello, here, how long have you been
out of Sing Sing?" said n friend, slapping
the broker Familiarity on the back.
The broker laughed when shown the
card, but insisted on keeping it. The
incident had been forgotten when n
day the broker stuck his head into his
friends Office and said: Better come
down the Sound fishing today"
Cant possibly do It," answered the
lawyer. "Have made an engagement to
meet some clients here on important
business" "All right" said his friend.
The lawyer waited in vain for his clients.
He heard several people approach the Of
