than overpowercd by tho loss Of
modesty, gentleness, faith and
womanly dignity.
When asked what women should
do he said: "Marry, make homes,
mind their children, keep the hon
eymoon from eclipse, and keep off
the street. Any reforms they want
to mako should be made through
the husband. v
When told that all women could
not marry he said. at Is their own
fault then. A sweet woman can
not be resisted" which means that
too many of our girls are being edu-
Gated and trained ON a wrong basis.
Hints to Housekeepers.
Mix stove-blacklng with spirits of
turpentine. 1t will take off the rust,
polish easier and stay glossy longer
than when water Is used.
Fold bread cloth small and lay
over the top of the pan, taking 1t off
some time before baking the bread,
so that the dough can raise well
above tho tin before putting 1t In the
oven.
A simple cough remedy is made of
an ounce of fiaxseed boiled In pint
of water, q little honey added, an
ounce Of rock candy and the juice
of three lemons, the whole mixed
and boiled well.
A pound of sugar is usually re-
quired TO every pint of juice, though
less may be used in making currant
or ripe grape jellies, For straining
the juice, 1t should never be ex-
tracted by squeezing, but allowed to
drip through the jelly bag.
If the jelly does not "form" the
next day after being made, 1t is use
less to cook 1t over. II 1t does not
become firm when first cooled,
standing 1t in the sun before cover
ing 1t will sometimes assist In har-
dening 1t. Jelly should be well COW
cred and kept In cool, dry place.
Always sift all kinds of meal and
flour, taking wire sieve, as a hair
sieve Is too fine, measuring before
Sitting, unless otherwise directed. 1t
makes great difference for corn
bread what kind OF meal is used. AL
ways use the yellow bolted meal
for brown bread, and for any recipe
tor corn bread, unless white meal is
specified.
Half-plnt jelly glasses are the best.
They should be rinsed in scalding
water and dried, then stood up side
by side In some large pan and filled
with jelly to the brinn. Allow them
to stand a day or two in some sunny
window, cover them, II possible,
with bits of glass, and as the moist
ure gathers on the under side wipe
it carefully away.
Save the small paper bags care
fully which the groceries come in.
They are useful in many ways. Slip
the hand In one when you black the
stove, and you will not soil 1t. When
flies abound slip them over the
clean lamp chimneys during the
day. After fruit is canned draw
them over the can, and label them
plainly. The action of the light
causes more fruit to spoil than any
other one thing.
A cement which will adhere per-
fectly to glazed surfaces, repair
broken minerals, or, in fact, stick
to any thing, is made by taking two
ounces Of clear gum arabic, one and
one-half ounces of fine starch and
one-half ounce Of white sugar. Pull
verlze the gum arabic, and dissolve
1t in as much water as the laundress
would Use for the quantity of the
starch indicated. Dissolve the
starch and sugar in the gum solu-
ton. Then cook the mixture In q
vessel suspended in boiling water
until the starch becomes clear. The
cement should be as thick as tar,
and kept so. It can be kept from
spelling by dropping in a lump of
gum camphor or a little oil of cloves
or sassafras.
