Peter greets men and women at the shin
ing portals one of the questions that he
asks is Have you ever Willingly hurt
the feelings of little child?" And on the
answer viii depend the state of the beat
itudes he will reach.
Do not tickle the feet of the baby. It Is
asserted by scientists that children are
made to stutter by that process. and it
can easily be believed, for tickling ner-
vous people almost deprives them of the
power Of speech.
The hardy, free-blooming climbing sin
gle rose is one Of the most graceful plants
for decorating the table. The sprays may
sired or draped from the chandelier to the
table. The blossoms will remain fresh for
some time.
A small clean whisk broom kept in the
clothes basket Is the most convenient to
use for dampening clothes Dip the broom
into bowl of clear water and very light
ly shake the water over the clothing. In
this manner the work is done more even
ly and quickly than If the fingers are en-
ployed to sprinkle the water about.
One of the most useful articles for
cleaning cooking pots and pans is a wire
chain dishcloth. 1t is now made fastened
to a long, smooth, wooden handle, which
allows one to use it without putting the
hands into the water
Now the time has come again for pre-
pairing the little cucumbers for picking
do not forget TO add a little horseradish
root to the vinegar the cucumbers are put
in; 1t helps to retain the strength in the
vinegar, and prevents mould from COM
ing over the top of the liquid. The horse
radish leaves. too. are excellent for lay
ing over the top.
No particle of cheese, no matter how
small, should be thrown away or allowed
to mould and thus go to waste, for it may
be used in many different ways besides
the usual rarebit or dish of macaroni and
cheese. White, crisp lettuce with dress
ing and a little grated cheese scattered
over the whole is very fine. Try grating
a little cheese upon a dish of stewed pota-
toes.
One of the best cosmetic for bicycle rid
ers or persons upon the water is fresh
cucumber juice. This will aid in keeping
the skin of the face soft and smooth. To
extract the juice from a cucumber, first
peel it, and then cut it into thick slices and
press the juice out with lemon squeezer.
A simple and harmless remedy for sun
burn is to battle the face in buttermilk.
In making bags or cases for ,silverware
an unbleached material should be employ
eQ. sulphur Is generally uSeu HI lub
bleaching processes, and 1t tends to black
en- and tarnish silver. Rubber in any form
Is another thing that should never be kept
near silverwire. Silver is best wrapped
in blue, white, or pink soft tissue paper,
and unbleached cotton flannel bags

The French mohairs are finer, softer
and silker of surface than they have ever
been. but in dark colors or black; they are
no longer considered dressy gowns, TO be
in various ways, but are relegated to the
reign of utility fabrics.

rety of beautiful effects in batiste en-
brodery as there is this season. Every
