rx water boiled in the coffee pot twice a week for fifteen
minutes sueetens and purifes it. TO cleanse window glass
simply use warm water and Borax; no soap. Wipe dry
and polish with crumpled newspapers. For the shampoo
use one teaspoonful to two quarts of warm water. 1t acts
directly on the scalp, keeping it in a healthy condition.
As a dentifrce and mouth wash Borax is unexceled. 1t
cleanses the mouth, hardens the gums and relieves cankers.
In using it for the teeth, make a powder of one ounce each
of powdered Borax and pulyarized CaNeel soap and two
ounces of precipitated chalk. Bags made of checsecloth,
about eight inches square, filled with oatmeal, some pow.

indispensable at the toilet table and as a disinfectant, and
will prove a valuable aid in procuring cleanliness at the

TO look for better conditions elsewhere
than to the real source Of all financial
stability. A new era of personal econo-
mp and debt paying would bring good
times to the American people with
greater celebrity and sureness than any
quickenng hum Of industry or plethora
of lending capital. Eliminate the twin
specters OF extravaganza and speculation
from the daily lives and business habits
of the American people and good times
would be already here.
The lessons of recent depressed condi-
tions are not fully learned unless person
al economy and debt paying honesty
have in some degree at least supplanted
careless extravaganza and risky specula-
tions. The beginnings of renewed pros
perity rest with the individual Those
who meet the return TO normal financial
conditions with a lapse into former eX-
travagences have not profted by the
severe but salutary teachings OF an era
Of stringeacy, bordering in too many
cases on distress.
II the average individual would not
merely avoid debt In the future, but de-
vote immediate energy to paying of old
scores, tie nation would witness a speedy
and permanent revival Of prosperity in
dependent Of Of tariffs, coinage laws and
governmental conditions. The payment
Of obligations, carelessly assumed in
prosperous times, may entail rigid econ
omy and palmer living. In some cases
it may require the sacrifice Of ease and
comfort. 1t is homely but true adage,
however. that honesty pays in the long
run, and those who wish to enjoy future
prosperity to the full should get even
with the world and begin anew.-Chica.

A Pltchfork i'm a Tree.

One of the greatest curiosities ever
brought to light in this section OF Iowa
was recently discovered by A. p. Davis,
occupant OF the G. L. Clark farm in
Eden township, Fayette county, and by
Alderman V. w. johnson brought to
this city. where it will remain in the
museum of the Iowa Masonic library.
Mr.. Davis had been engaged in clear
ing up" tract OF land which borders
upon swamp, one of the trees felled
being a fine red oak ten inches in
diameter, inside the bark. In due
course of time the tree was cut into
cordwood lengths, and later came to the
power saw to be cut into stovewood.
In cutting the last length the saw
struck an obstruction completely con-
cealed inside the stick. Upon removing
the bark it was found that the stick con
tanned three tined pitchfork, completely
imbedded, save that the points OF the
tines protruded ON one gide, and the
shoulder, or part which is sot in tho end
OF the handle, from the other. One Of
the tines was broken, which leads to the
opinion that some harvester, many years
ago, had broken the fork, and, sticking
it above small branch OF the young
sapling, had never again thought of it.
The tree has Aourished in the damp soil
gradually growing over the fork until nc
part of it was visible The rings in the
tree indicate growth of seventeen years
The first five rings are very large and
show splendid growth, but the drought
of the past few years is clearly evidenced
in the outer rings.-Cedar Rapids

Mailing Candy Abroad.

A young man who apparently knows
q girl in London came into the Office the
other day and asked whether candy
could be sent abroad through the mails.
So he was taken over to the postofiice
and the state of affairs was laid before
an official, who instigated an invostiga
ton. After long time he returned and
reported as follows:
II am very glad, " said he, "that you
asked that question. Its answer shows
q curious state of affairs. In this coun-
try you can send candy up to pounds
as merchandise for cent for each
ounce If You want to send candy
abroad you only have TO pay cent fo%
every 2 ounces, but you can only sends
IL ounces in each package. If it weighs
more than IL ounces you have to pay
letter rates. or 10 cents an ounce for the
whole thing.
THAT is to say, you can send 10
ounces to London for cents, but it
would cost you 10 cents to send it to
Brooklyn. So il you are thinking OF
sending a pound it will cost you SLIGO.
The stamp department. is right over
there.
"Thank you very nlnoh, y said the
young man. ~ just happen to remepl-
Der that the doctor has forbidden tho
girl to eat candy. Now York Mail
