OUNCES OF PREVENTION.

Wear clean apron while ironing or
bed-naking.
To clean bamboo furniture use n
brush dipped in salt water.
The eyes should be bathed every
night in cold water just before retiring
and they will do better work the follow
ing day.
When very tired lie on the back, al
lowing every muscle to relax, letting
the hands go any way they will, and
keep the eyes closed.
If Hyou have to sew all day change your
seat occasionally and so obtain rest.
Bathing the face and hands will also
stimulate and refresh.
Oil stains may be removed from wall
paper by applying for four hours pipe
clay, powdered and mixed with water
to the thickness of cream.
For stains in mating from grease
wet the spot with alcohol, then rub on
white CASTLE soap. Let this dry in a
cake and then wash off with warm salt
water.

Here's Some Good Advice.

Don't roll your eyes up into your
head as if they were marbles. A fine
pair of eyes will be utterly ruined by
this operation. The girl with pretty
mouth will purse it up into the pref
tiest bouton and continue the habit nu-
til many lines form about the lips ard
the lovely mouth has TO be put into
the hands of beauty doctor. Nearly
every woman bites or sucks her lips.
Others contract the brows and produce
two burrows between the eyes. Others
wrinkle the forehead with frowns.
Others perpetually wear ;ip1tlted
nose. The true expressive face, doesn't
consist of a set of features hung or
strings or wires. Do cultivat? placid
features.

live QUESTIONS
FREELAND TRIBUNE.
IN THE

Commencing with Monday,
February 10, 1896, and continu-
ing through the year, the TRI-
BUNE proposes to publish a
series of able articles upon
subjects of vital and general
interest to our readers. Emil
nent thinkers and writers of
national reputation on Social,
Economic and Industrial Prob
lens have promised contribu-
tions upon topics of universal
interest. The list of authors,
and the comprehensive group
of "Live Questions" that will
be treated by them, can be
seen on this page, and will, we
confidently believe, merit the
hearty interest of readers who
are already interested in these
themes, and are anxious to
receive the most rational opin-
ions obtainable.
All articles will be prepared
in an inquiring and scientific
spirit, and will be non-sectional
and non-partisan. Vigor and
simplicity of statement will be
aimed at, and all phases OF re-
form thought will be fairly and
impartially presented. Upon
subjects about which there is a
variety of candid opinions. all
sides will receive an equal OPP
portunity to be heard, that the
truth may, if possible, be ar
rived at.
This is the first cooperative
attempt upon the part of able
writers to thoroughly discuss
all the interesting phases Of
social and industrial life for
the masses who would be the
beneficiaries of substantial re-
forms, and the arrangements
made by the TRIBUNE give us
the sole privilege of publishing
the articles in this town. They
can be read in no other Free
land paper, and those of our
readers who are not subscribers
should have their names placed
on the list without delay.

FOR YOUNG WIVES.
Advices Which, If Needed, VIII Lessen
the Friction of Married Life.


Some excellent advice to young
wife consists of an earnest exhortation
TO preserve discreet silence with respect
to family matters, says Princess.
Always remember that what you
learn about your husbands family is
to be kept to yourself; that when you
married him and took his name you be-
came one of the family, and the little
trouble, the little skeleton, is not to
be discussed with the members of the
family in which you were born. To
your sister it may mean nothing that
some trouble has come to your hus-
bands brother. You may tell it to her
in secrecy, and it may seem of so little
Importance that she will repeat it to
her sster-in-law, and gradually what
was meant to be kept quiet is told all
round the neighborhood. The art of
keeping to yourself what you hear on
each side of the house is one that you
must cultivate, for it means the keep
ing of peace. Surely, you would not
wish to hurt your husband, and yet you
will do it if you cannot keep quiet.
When you enter his mothers house,
anything that is told to you in conf
dence must be forgotten when you
leave it, unless, indeed, it Is discussed
with your husband, and the same rule
will apply to your own family. Don't
imagine that every little frown, every
little disagreeable word is meant for
you, and do not retail to your husband
anything unpleasant that may have
happened when you were visiting at
his mothers house. Think that she is
your mother, too, and give her the priv
ilege of speaking to you as your mother
does. l know it isn't always easy to
have fault found with one when one is
trying to do ones best, but think over
what is said, if there is anything help
full in it. 1t is in the woman's power
to make or mar the sanctity of mar
riage by the manner in which she ac
cepts its responsibilities. 1t is as due
to the earnest endeavors of n good wife
that many n husband has been re-
claimed or prevented from leading the
downward path, as, unfortunately, it is
that carelessness or indifference or
neglect from the weaker half" in
physical strength has weakened her
power and made her influence useless.
