Items For Everybody.

Who says q woman has nothing to do?
In one year she cooks breakfast, dinner
and supper each 365 times, washes the
dishes 1,095 times, gets the children
ready for school twice day for $50 days,
and puts the baby to sleep 1,460 times,
not to mention few other odd jobs.
II you intend to take up plants for
winter bloom keep the buds pinched of,
and week or two before pottiDg, with a
sharp spade cut down on all sides OF the
plant about the size Of the pot you in
tend TO ill. This will lead the plant to
put forth new roots inside the ball Of
earth to take the place Of those cut of,
and when lifted it will have active,
working roots.
To make a mustard plaster that will
not blister, take two teaspOOnfuls Of
mustard, two tesspOOnfuls Of -four, two
teaspoonfuls Of ground ginger. Do not
mix too dry. Place between two pieces
Of old muslin and apply. II it burns
too much ct first, lay an extra piece Of
muslin between it and the skin; as the
skin becomes accustomed to the heat,
take the extra piece Of muslin away.
One Of the biggest mistakes about
food which people make is to forget that
the true value Of food to anybody is the
measure Of it's digestibility. Half a
pound Of cheese is vastly more nourish-
ing. as regards it's mere composition,
than half a pound Of beef, but while the
beef will be easily digested, and thus be
Of vast service to us, the cheese is put
out Of court altogether for ordinary folks
by reason Of indigestibility. We should
bear this rule in mind when we hear
people comparing one food with another
in respect to their chemical value.
DR.. Sternberg calls attention to the
fact that cellars, as we'll as sewers and
poorly ventilated spaces under floors,
whore refuse collects and the sun does
not penetrate, are favorable to the mul-
tipliCstion OF diphtheris germs. This
disease, while more prevalent in cities
and considered as one largely dissent
mated by sewers, yet is known to occur
in country districts and even on the
mountain sides; in these cases tae germs,
when not due to recent contagion, may
have remained hidden for long periods
in cellars or in damp buildings Of un-
wholesome construction, with what
result is obvious without explanation.

Home Work For Boys.

@@~@@-S UNN@A -
Mrs. Mary G. stetson, in an article on
the "Training Of Children" in the
October Ladies' Home Companion,
says:
"It takes several years for boys to
make decision as to the place they
would better fill In life. They cannot
choose between being President or a
policeman, but finally decide in favor Of
being drum-msior, with the beautiful
hat, at the head Of the procession. Let
them aspireI Encourage them to 60 on
and educate themselves for high call
ing. Perhaps their mothers may be the
means of their being leaders in that great
procession which is on long march Of
help to this suffering world. Who can
tell? A great deal has been written
about teaching our girls how to work
before they assume the duties Of home.
/ 70 further than this, and insist that q
young man should have much the same
training. Making bread and pastry may
be omitted, but there are times which
sro liable to come into q mans life--foE
instance, sickness in the family and he
needs his breakfast. He ought to be
able to cook beefsteRk, make coffee and
pour boiling water on oatmeal. Boys are
teachable. Only speak about the knoWl-
edge being a necessity to camping out,
and SOC how capable they will soon
become.
"Many delicate women in the past
have done all the housework, washing,
sweeping, dish-washing and cooking
for q family Of boys, while these boys, in
hours Of recreation, were working of
surplus energy by tossing balls over
barns, throwing hammers and swinging
In q homemade trapeze. This is all
wrong. Boys in such family should
do much OF the housework.
"Again, what a blessing these home
taught boys are when they 90 out into
the world. They can fully appreciate
tidily kept home, and can lend hand
when it is necessary. One Of the most
refined and intellectual clerical gentle
men ever met was stopping in home
where the mother did her own work
One day, when he saw that she wsl
exhausted with much serving, he asked
where is that basket Of clothes which
need ironing, that saw here today
She demurred, but he insisted, and h
stood in that hot kitchen and ironed anC
sang, and sang and ironed, until th,
work was done. Does some one think hI
must have been effeminate? Well, il il
is effeminate to be q soldier and fight il
ten hard battles, he was. II it describes
him, he makes it good word. He hat
q good mother, who had helped fit be-
son for this very place. 1t was an actor
worthy Of Phillip Brooks"

THE SHAKERS IDEAS Of MEDICINE

Nowadays when a man goes to his doc
tor he is usually told that he has some
unheard of disease with a long name, and
when he leaves the office he does not
know whether it is St. Vitus Dance or
consumption that is gradually undermin-
ing his health.
1t is therefore refreshing to talk with
the Shakers, for their very simplicity
commands confidence and respect, and
we have the further satisfaction of know
ing that they have devoted themselves to
the study of disease and it's cure for more
than a hundred years.
The venerable old man whom the writer
saw was only too glad to discuss his pet
subject. He said that strange as it might
seem very few doctors realized that three
quarters of the most prevalent diseases
were all attributable to faulty digestion.
He then went on to say that child of
average intelligence knows that putrid
meat or decaying vegetables are poison
Gus, and must be avoided, and yet these
same foods, even if taken into the ston-
ach in the freshest possible condition
soon decompose unless digested and alb
sorbed.
In such cases the resulting poisons en-
ter the system, when aches and pains,
weakness and debility soon follow as a
natural consequence.
1t was recognition of this that led the
Shakers to devote their energies to the
perfection of product which would
stimulate the digestive organs and assist
them to perform their proper work
The first symptom Of disordered diges-
ton is loss of appetite, and the Shaker
Digestive Cordial is wonderfully efficient
IN suppiving any deficiency in this respect.
al the same time it relieves all distress
after eating. Furthermore, as was care
fully explained by our venerable friend,
it is absolutely harmless.
Better evidence Of the Shakers conf
dence in II could not be found, than In the
fact that they have placed 10 cent sample
bottles in the hands of all druggists, as
sured that if once tried it viii produce
such immediate and marked benefit that
it viii be continued.
