A Whittier Memorial.

"We are informed" says the Boston
Transcript, that the heirs of the poet
Whittier, who are his niece and cousins,
would not be backward in doing their
share toward the securing of a perma-
nent memorial in his honor The Ames-
bury News makes the admirable sugges-
ton that now that the Whittier home
stead is to be vacated it is good time
to make move to secure it as a me-
mortal to be kept in its present condition.
1t is the house where most of Whittier's
poetry was written. The house at Oak
Knoll where he lived with his cousins
during his latest years is more pictur-
esque in location and its simple archi-
lecture than the one at Amesbury, but
that was his own, his voting residence,
and the chief haunt of his gentle free
dom loving muse.

Equal parts Of bay rum and glycer-
inc applied to the face after shaving
give great comfort. Applied to the
shoes, glycerine is great preserva-
tive of leather and effectually keeps
out water and prevents wet feet. A
few drops of glycerine put in the fruit

them helps to keep the preserves
from holding on top. For fatulency
there is no better remedy than teas

Common alum melted in an iron
spoon over hot Goals forms a very
strong cement for joining glass and
metal together. 1t is the best thing
for holding glass lamps to their stands
or for stopping cracks about their
bases, as kerosene does not penetrate
it. This is something that should be
remembered, as accidents may be
prevented by its use.

Catarrh in the head is due to impure blood
and cannot be cured with local applications
Hoods Sarsaparilla has cured hundreds of
cases of catarrh because it purifes the blood

vents attacks of pneumonia, diphtheria and
typhoid fever.

Difficulty in churning may be obvi-
ated by following the method have
employed on my farm for two winters.
Set the milk in shallow pans in room
without a fire, where the temperature
ranges from 40 to 60 degrees, skim
the mornings milk at night and the
nights milk in the morning and give
the skinned milk to the calves. I
have grade Jersey COW, and it re-
quires five or six days to secure
enough cream for a churning of six to
eight pounds, the cream being kept
in the same room with the milk dur
ing this period. 1t is thence taken
into the kitchen at night, where the
temperature of 60 to 70 degrees affords
all the necessary heat, and churned
the next forenoon. The butter comes
in two to five minutes, has a good col

LADIES' COLUMN.

Good Housekeeping says: The wear
OF a carpet may be greatly prolonged
by judicious treatment. The wise wo-
man realizes this, and by little head
work and carefulness, lightens the de-
mands on both her hands and her
pocketbook. Her carpets are swept
but once week, and then it is done
in this wise: First, she covers the
furniture as much possible, especially
the upholstered portions, and then
strews the floor thickly with tea
leaves and salt The salt brightens
the colors in the carpet and destroys
the moths, while the tea leaves gather
the dust. Then she sweeps with the
grain of the carpet, using short
stroke that covers only little space.
Her broom draws, not pushes, the salt
and tea leaves up to level with her
feet, and so she continues until the
whole room has been gone over. The
result of this careful sweeping is that
not much dust has been set in motion
to settle, later on, upon the furniture,
and also that the sweeper's carpets
greatly outlast those Of her neighbors
and yet always look bright and clean.

We all know the Scriptural inter
probation of the rainbow, but myth
oIogy has also had it's say upon the
same theme. The Scandinavians
thought it was a celestial bridge by
which the gods passed to and fro. 1t
was doomed to break down at the
last day. Children are still sometimes
told that, if they will walk to the spot
from which the rainbow springs, they
will find pot of gold. There was an
idea that the rainbow draws up water
by means Of two gold dishes, which it
sometimes lets fall, and which have
been secured by lucky finders. A
Black Forest legend asserted that the
rainbow draws it's water by golden
goblet, and that sho thrown into a
rainbow would return filed with gold.
In Servia the peasants used to say
that to pass beneath a rainbow chang
ed the sex,-made a man a woman, or
the reverse. Suabians, when there is
a double rainbow, say that it is the
devil trying to initiate the work of
God.-Hdrper's Round Table.

E'Going into a decline" How ofthen do we
hear this expression. What does it mean?
1t means that people are losing flesh, growing
thin, wasting. The way to correct this condi-
tion is to improve the digestion. The condi-
ton arises from an inability to eat and digest
food. In fact food does more harm than good
because it ferments and putrifies in the stom-
ach, developing poisonous substances which
when absorbed cause various disorders.
What is required is that the stomach be
made.to perform its duties. The Shaker Di
gestive Cordial is food already digested and
a digester of foods WE'LL 1t will make the
stomach healthy. Get book from the drug
glst and read about it.

of its bad taste. Laxol is its name.

A Mighty Close Call.

Miss Stella Donald, Miss Laura
Blaine and Miss Annie Bofna, three
young and popular society ladies of the
village of Union Grove, had a remark
able escape from instant death with a
horse and buggy, started out for trip
to Eagle lake. When near the village
of KansasviIle, they heard the o'clock
passenger train on the st. Paul road,
conductor Cassford, going west. They
touched up the horse, supposing they
had plenty of time to get across the
track ahead of the train. Just as the
horse got on the track the train whizz-
ed onto the crossing. 1t struck the
horse squarely and turned the buggy
against the train and the horse, buggy
and girls were hurled into the ditch.
The train was stopped and backed
and it was expected that the girls we're
killed, but strange to say, none was
fatally hurt and did not have any
bones broken. Miss Donald, who was
under the buggy, was seriously cut
about the head and face and bruised
about the body, but will be out in a
few days. The other girls only re-
ceived slight cuts and bruises. The
horse was instantly killed and the bug
gy reduced to kindling wood. 1t was
indeed miracle that the young ladies
escaped alive. 1t is said that the
trainmen were not in the least at fault

He Tells of What is to Be Expected in
July Races.
EDITOR NEWS Considerable interest
is manifested on the question of who
will carry off the lions share of the
prizes; and what surprises, if any, will
be given to the public in the races on
the 4th.
In the handicap races, % are entered
in each event and among them are
some good men. Stolz, of Milwaukee,
first scratchman to land in the Racine
road race, will undoubtedly be one of
the scratch men; and with him G.. v
Bachelle and Stanwood, of Chicago.
The chances are also good for seeing
Kenosha's. " cracker jack" Yeoman ride
from the back mark.
Stanwood it was, who held the 100
mile century record around the Elgin-
Aurora course for some time, and
Bachelle held the championship of the
Western universities a while during
last summer. What dark horses on
the front list we know not, and taken
altogether, two very interesting as we'll
as exciting races will be run. The
Kenosha championship is really be-
tween only three riders, Yeoman, Gruis
and Allen. Yeoman is known to Keno
sha people, also Gruis, little; and
what Allen will do remains to be seen.
Alien has a remarkable sprint for To-
year old, but suffers from nervousness,
and never having had any experience
in racing he very easily frightens.
A feature of the meet will be the 2
mile race between Yeoman, on wheel
paced by tandem, and one of Broncho
Johns ponies, an event which should
attract all lovers of horse flesh, togeth
er with the cycle cranks.

house where the commissary depart
ment had Belfast ale and sandwiches
galore.
Frank Bull drove his drag and four
inland. In his party were Messrs.
Otis johnson, Arthur Gilbert, Frank
Bull; Emory Jones. Frank Johnson

rick Robinson and family also drove

the Wayside club by George A. Yule,
the president of that club; Mrs. George
A. Yule, the Misses Newell and Mrs.

The club grounds looked very pretty
decorated with Chinese lanterns, and
hammocks and settees were plentifully
sprinkled where they were most need
ed. Lemonade, coffee and various
kinds of sandwiches were served during
the evening, and all went merry as a
marriage bell, and the initial step
toward social intercourse between these
two lovely cities on the banks of Old
Michigan was taken.
Dancing went on during the evening
and helped make the gathering most
enjoyable. The threatening weather
made them all scurry off sooner than
was expected, but it was success.
