OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. 23.-Prof. Virgins
predicts a great hurricane. He says: The
announcement by the Marine Department
that a hurricane is now moving up the At
lantic coast from the West Indies is a
meteorological event of more than common
interest. That a great storm is near is a
meteorological fact. The moon will be in
conjunction with Jupiter and Mercury on
the 25th and Mars the 9th. The moon
crosses the celestial equator on the 25th
moving southwark. She will be in conjunc-
ton with the sun on the 26th at l O'clock
.. m, London time, and will be at her peri
gee, or nearest point in her orbit to the
earth on the 2Sth These are ALL or nearly
all dangerous elements to the mariner, for
they indicate a storm on the afternoon Of
Wednesday, the 29th, with high tides, on the
North American coast"

The best known of Fielding's works

Rugs and Bare Floors.

Women have long been instructed
that rugs and bare floors are sanitary
essentials In housekeeping. While
this statement is undoubtedly true In
many cases, 1t still admits Of qualin-
cations. In houses whose rooms have
well-made hardwood floors the ar
rangement proves satisfactory, though
all women admit that II increases the
household work. Good floors, however,
are still the exception more than the
rule. When n housekeeper attempts to
stain and oil margins that are made
OF uneven, loosely-put-together boards.
she finds that she has undertaken a
considerable burden. Such floors Ill
most never look well. They need the
most constant care to be even OF toll

than one ~housekeeper testifles that n
der such conditions they have gone
back to fitted carpets. These, 1t may
be added. can be hygienically cared for
by following the approved method Of
sweeping them. This is to brush the
dust from the corners and use a car
pet sweeper to take II from the main
space of the carpet, afterwards wiping
1t over with a clean damp. not wet,
cloth. Another point urged for the
rug system. which experience does not
bear out, Is Its economy. Few maids
can adequately clean the heavy rugs
with which many apartments are
strewn. They demand outside service
about as frequently as does the fitted
carpet. A New York woman who &C.

living French writer has amassed more
