vantage about cleaning the house room by room
is that it is sometimes difficult to get any help

there be any other kind of fur on It, extra care
must be given to it. After the garment is
clean fold it and without doubling it over, sew
around it heavy muslin. Then wrap news
papers around this and put it in the box, tying
the box up with stout string so that 1t viii be
perfectly air-tight. Mark the box 30 that you
will know what is In 1t without undoing It,

tar balls can be scattered in it, and will prob
ably be of some help.

appreciation of their beauty is intensified.

OF course every woman has her own method
of house cleaning, and does not often care to
try any other A few suggestions however,
NAV help some woman who is not yet hardened
to any system. Begin with one room-on the
TOD floor is best-and take everything out of II,
including the curtains and all other draperies
and pictures. Sweep the carpet carefully, and
take the tacks out Roll it up, keeping as much
of its dust in as possible, and if you can, lower
it out of the window into the yard. If there
are papers under the carpet roll them up care
fully too, and put them in big basket or cloth,
and get them out of the room. Sprinkle wet
sawdust over the floor. Do not have the sawdrst
dripping wet. Sweep off the floor, and then
brush the dust from the walls ceilings, cor
nices, tops of doors, and all the lodges. Then
90 over the floor again with wet sawdust. If
the floor needs scrubbing do not make it any
wetter than possible, and let the windows be
all open that it may dry quickly. All of tho
draperies and bedding that cannot be washed
should be brushed and shaken, and allowed to
air freely. Those to be washed should be put
In the soiled-clothes hamper, so as get them OUT
of the way. After the carpets and papers have
been we'll shaken, they can be put down
again. Then bring the furniture in, after
wiping every particle of dust from it. After
all of the rooms ON the floor are finished, talk
ing them one by one, take up the hall and
stair carpets, and after having them cleaned
put them out of the way for awhile. 1t is not
best to put them down again until the floors

COAL GoEs UP AGAIN.


The wholesale coal sales agents met

lowing the course pursued by the min
ing sales agents y few days ago, order
ed a general advance in prices Of coal
to the local retail trade. The new
schedule adds 10 cents to the present
price Of broken, making it 1906; in.
creases egg 25 cents to $500; stove %
cents to So, and chestnut 25 cents to
$3.50. Added to these prices is the
freight Of S1,75 por ton upon the new
basis. The new schedule practically
advances the retail price to SO per ton
chuted in for all sizes, except pea A
further advance later in the fall is not
unlikely, if the demand justifes.

THAT CIRCLE MONEY,

SOON TO mn ARDED

BALTIMoRE, September q. The re-
ceiver Of the American Fraternal Cir
Gle. Moses n. Walter, was too much
pressed for time Monday morning to
give an instant Of time to callers at
his Office on business relating TO re-
ceiying their part Of the money Of tho
detunct organization.
The other receiver, Conway w.
Sans, being out Of town, the brunt 81
the work at present falls ON Lawyer
Walter, and as he is now making pre-
parations for the distribution Of the
funds, he is n very busy man. Every
thing is now ready for tile signing and
mailing Of the checks and in few
days this will be begun, but twill pro-
badly be month before the last
member is paid of.
Walter says the public have no idea
Of the amount az work that was re-
quired. ok9men 5days write out
the names and addresses Of the meme
bers and n correspondingly long time
to make ont the $4,000 checks which
are now awaiting the signature Of the
receivers to become good for their face
value.
AS each Of these $4,000 pieces Of
paper required a careful reference to
the books over which only two Or three
men can work at once, il can be seen
that the task is no easy one.
One gratifying feature Of the ease is
however, the report, which, If true,
may make the members hearts jump.
Our certificate holder who had an
interview with Walter said that gentle
man had given him reason to hope
that after all, the members would not
be left 50 deep ii q hole, especially
those who never received any money
from the order.
He said the lawyer talked as il they
would received q goodly proportion Of
the money invested.
Tho members win experience d feel
ing Of relief at this news no doubt for
the long time they have patiently wait
ed for their money has given them
"that tired feeling we SO often read
about. This circle has been in the
hands Of the receivers long time and
the fact that it will soon have settled
its account with mankind and gone to
meet its fate in the hades of short term
orders will be welcome news all around.
