anything wonderful about it. Nobody
had much chance to think about any

for the whole town to get dug out, but
the folks went about it systematical-

the worst.

not be required. At least this has

How to wash ohamoi. Gloves.

The proper way is to wash them in
tepid water, taking care to use plenty
of white soap. They can either be
washed on the hand or off, though it is
easier to get at them by wearing them
and using a nailbrush. They should be
rinsed in strong tepid soapsuds and
not in clear water. because that takes
out the oil and makes the gloves hard.
The more they are washed the softer
and finer they become. They should
never be wrung out, but rather pressed
out, and then they should be rolled in
dry towel. Keep changing the towel
until all of the water is absorbed, and
before the gloves are thoroughly dry
put them on the hands.

How to Cook Herring Roe.

Allow plain milk biscuit to each
guest. Have about eight soft roes of
cooked fresh behring's. make very hot
over gentle fire and season with cay
enne and salt. Melt two ounces of but
ter in a frying pan. lay in the biscuits
and cook gently. Dust them we'll with
pepper. Curl round the roes and lay one
on each biscuit. Serve very hot. Put a
little yolk of hard boiled egg that has
been rubbed through sieve alternately
with some finely chopped parsley ON the
top of each.

How 20 Prevent and Cure This Prev
alent Amiction.
Heredity has much to do with nerv-
Gus disorders If ones ancestors have
been long lived race, phenomenal VI
tality Is often inherited, and with this
aid much can be prevented or cured. II
the opposite is the case, however. nc
pains should be spared in endeavoring
as far as possible to counteract any pre-
disposition to disease. OF the methods
by which nervous prostration can be
prevented one Of the most important lie
to have three good. varied and well
cooked meals per day. Take plenty of
time to eat them. No meal should be
eaten in less than half an hour-or, bet
ter still, even an hour, especially for
dinner. Good can be derived, too, from
the surroundings and conditions under
which the meal is taken. Food is worse
than wasted which is taken into the
system when laboring under great ex-
element, grief, anxiety or other dis
turting conditions. Above all things
avoid all highly seasoned foods-many
Of them are productive of far more
harm than good.
A proper amount of sleep at night
time is another preventive. Take eight
hours sound sleep. BY this do not
mean merely eight hours in bed. but
eight hours restful sleep. If you do not
fall asleep easily, or the sleep is broken
or restless. or you lie awake for an hour
or more after going to bed, You should
remain in bed ten hours. To endeavor
to get along with less than the natural
amount Of sleep is simply counting nerv-
Gus disorder.
1t has been found, too, that many
people become broken down nervously
because they are bored and worried by
the vexation of restless and purpose
less life. Overwork is bad, but want of
work is equally harmful. To worry and
fret over trifies has undoubtedly great
deal to do with nervous depression.
Every woman should get a certain
amount of moderate exercise in the
open air. 1t makes no difference what
kind is taken so long as it exercises all
the muscles and is not followed by
sense of fatigue. The question is not
what exercise you think you ought to
have, but what you can endure. If you
find you can only walk one hour each
day without becoming fatigued, then
that is enough. If you cannot take
much exercise. then walk half an hour.
but if half an hours exercise exhausts
you SO that you do not quickly recover
after short rest then you are in need
