GREAT Improvement will be found In

In bottling pickles or catsup, boil

MYSTERIOUS rust spots on clothes are
caused by Prussian blue which is sub

blue has been used.

CLEANING KNIVES.


Directions for Making a Good Knife
II Boord Mt Home.
The steel knife is universally recog-
nized as the very best table knife. The
silver-plate knife is more convenient
to use, as it requires less cleaning, but
the edge Is not as keen and it is not as
useful as the pure steel knife. Bath
brick or emory powder with sweet oil
is still considered the best material for
cleaning knives. A homemade knife
board with hinge is a great conven-
fence in family. To make such q
cleaner, take two pieces of board
about ten inches long and four inches
across, and about an inch thick.
st fetch chamois leather across one side
OF each board, lacking it down with
nails around the edges. Unite these
two boards by two hinges, so that the
leather covers come on the inside, ap-
ply the powdered bath brick and sweet
oil or tho emory and sweet oil to one
Of the leather sides. Put the knives
inside one by one and move them up
and down as in rubbing to clean them,
turning them over as one side is pol

binary four-in-hand ties contain SO
much silk of which SO little Is exposed
that only in one place do they become
soiled and worn. When the silk in
each end of the tie is the same width
rip the entire lining off and remove
the cotton wadding which is to be
found in all ties Of good quality. Cut
off the short end of the line marked
in the illustration and insert this end
between lines marked and 2. Use for
the short end the silk that is worn and
soiled. To be sure 1t makes quite a
little piecing, but when it is done
neatly and well pressed 1t does not
show, as it does not come in consp:c-
uous place If tied properly. After
pressing replace the lining and wad-

DOGS AS SOLDIERS.
Regularly Enlisted IN tho Ambulance
Corps OF the Germany Army.

Regularly Enlisted IN the Ambulance
! Corps Of the Germany Army.
The time-honored injunction to "Let
slip the dogs of war;" is being given a
new meaning in Germany. That
country is leaving nothing undone to
make its army organization the most
| perfect in Europe, and among the
preparations for the next campaign is
IA regular system Of dog drilling. The
dogs have been trained to go with the
ambulance corps, seek out the
wounded, bring them water and help
to draw them ON little hand-carts to
the field hospital. They perform all
these services with intelligence and
skill.
They are now attached to some of
the regiments rs regular four-footed
/ soldiers. The first lesson which they
hive to learn is silence. They are
Taught to repress the outbreak of bark
ing and to replace this mode of signal
ing by low growl, audible only to
their friends. This is a difficult les
son; but more tedious one has to fol
low. This is to teach the dog that
men are friends and enemies, and that
the way to distinguish them is by the
color Of their trousers. Soldiers are
dressed up in French and Russian uni
forms and made to whip the dogs,
while soldiers in German uniforms are
| told off TO pet the canine recruits and
regale them on sausage,
The dogs render good service at the
outposts, on account of their quick
sense Of hearing; and they are also
trained to carry dispatches in leather
satchel which is buckled on the iron
collar they wear.
Gray Pomeranians make the best
soldier-dogs, on account Of their great
muscular strength, their quickness in
| learning and their unobtrusive color.
For ambulance service, however, Prof.
Bungartz, the animal painter, who is
interested in this branch of the Red
Cross society and has himself trained
many dogs for it, declares that Scotch
collies are the best breed.

flower. The wild sunfower is found
in abundance in Kansas, and, while
generally of small size, 1t sometimes
attains an immense growth. And II
grows in regions where there is but
little rainfall, not enough to grow ce-
reals. The paper has brown color and
greatly resembles paper made from
straw, although much stronger. A
company has established q manufac.
tory at Salina, Kan. If successful, the
