THE WEAPON OF SCIENCE.


ANY disease may be deadly enough
when you have no adequate means
at hand to confront it. Plenty of peo-
pie die every day of durable diseases,
simply because the stereotyped, routine,
senseless methods and remedies usually
employed are not halfway equal to the
occasion.
But when truly scientific remedy like
DR.. Pierce's great Golden Medical Dis
covery" is brought to bear upon the
complaints which it is designed TO cure,
it penetrates the tough hide-bound armor
of obstinate disease with the same I'M
erring accuracy and power with which a
modern rifle penetrates savage shield.

DOMESTIC HELP.

One of the speakers at the recent meet
Ing of the Massachusetts state federation
of vomen's clubs, in reviewing the diff
culties of the domestic problem, said that
women fail to face this subject boldly
they study all other arts and sciences, and
let this go with traditional indifference.
Specialization, which has done SO much
for other trades, may help in the trade of
housekeeping.
Objections are made by women EN-
ployed in domestic work that the hours
are too long, and this item of the limit
of days work makes 1t futile to expect
to draw help from the factories and shops
to the kitchen. Under the present con-
dItion of things, however, it seems i'm
possible to have fixed days work in the
house.
The average length of days work in
factories is from eight to nine hours and
ten hours in shops. The average day of a
woman in domestic services is Is 4 hours.
The lack of a cebnite business contract
between employer and domestic is another
drawback; women find 1t hard to collect
full amount of wages sometimes on this
account. The social stigma felt by one
who does housework for another Is posi-
bly, the greatest power that keeps bright
and capable women away from house
work.
The tendency is for the better class of
domestic help to avoid intelligence office

PUTTING AWAY FURS.

This Is the way fur dealers prepare their
goods for summer storage The fur is
laid on a smooth table, hair side upward
and then whipped with flexible whips but
willow switches are quite as good. This
whipping is vigorous matter though the
strokes are not laid on hard enough to
hurt the skin. II insects or eggs are
already in the fur, as may be the cass,
this treatment will dislodge them. The
garn emit is then placed in u paper cover
and that enclosed in "a cloth bag. Fur
dealers take furs out every few weeks
during the summer and give them a
whip ing and summing They do not
use any pepper, camphor or such pre-
ventives. Dirty furi which are not
cleaned by tho use of switches. are given
bath of bot bran, This is rubbed
literally into the hair, left there short
time. and then shaken our, and as it falls
out, it bings all the dust with 1t. II
