The Homemaker.

One Of the secrets Of being able to have
ones plans frustrated without serious in
convenience is in being forehanded. Never
allow work to accumulate if it is possible
to do it. Keep everything in such order
that little neglect will not show. Occu-
py spare moments Of the days that are not
very busy ones in doing work a little
ahead of time when it is actually needed.
Then one will be the mistress and not the
slave Of her housework, and the true work
Of the homemaker will be accomplished.

fashion: Rye flour Is placed in pot and
heated upon the stove, with constant stir

heat. The -four is then spread over the
fur and rubbed into it with vigorous
hand. After this treatment the fur is
brushed, or, better, Ia gently beaten until
all the -four Is removed. Furs treated In
this manner are said to resume their nat
ural color and luster and look like new.

FATHER KILLEEN,s CRUSADE.

IL Open Yesterday.


War against those liquor dealers among his
parishioners who are guilty of violating Bay
onne's prohibitory Sunday liquor selling ordi-
nance is being waged by the Rev. Father Thomas
Killeen. the rector OF st. Mary's Star Of the Sea
Roman Catholic Church at Bergen Point. For
the purpose Of obtaining evidence against such
violators, Father Killeen made q tour Of his
parish yesterday afternoon.
He visited the saloon Of Joseph p. McGuinness,
at Avenue ID and West Tenth street, during his
tour. Having heard the sound Of voices within
the resort, Father Killeen effected an entrance
before the proprietor could be warned by his
spoilers. In the saloon Father Killeen con-
fronted the proprietor and half a dozen OF the
latter's customers. Having made certain Of
their identity, Father Killeen withdrew after q
few spirited words with the proprietor.
In all likelihood Father Killeen will lodge with
Recorder p. w. Connolly this afternoon a new
complaint against McGuinness, when he appears
in the Bayonne Police Court to prosecute on
similar charges McGuinness and Michael Mack
in. a saloon keeper at $50 Avenue ID. These
charges were preferred for violations of the ex-
