about me anxiously Then 1 heard
great cheering up the track. Some
body was coming down, at rapid
pace, riding splendid-moving ami
NAL, knee rising to the nose at each
powerful stride. His head and flying
name obscured the rider, but l could
see the end of rope swinging in his
hand. There was something familiar
in the easy stride of the horse. The
cheers came on ahead of him like
foam before a breaker. Upon my
eyes! 1t was Black Hawk, with moth
ing but plain rope halter on his
head. and Uncle Eb riding him.
"G'lang there!" he shouted, swing
ing the halter stale to the shining
flank. "G'lang there!" and he went
by, like flash, the tail of Black
Hawk straight out behind him, its
end feathering in the wind. 1t was
splendid thing to see that white
haired man, sitting erect on the fly
ing animal, with only rope halter
in his hand. Every man about me
was yelllng. swung my Ha., snouo
ing myself hoarse. When Uncle Eb
came back. the Hawk was walking
quietly in crowd of men and boys
eager to feel his silken sides. l

To Clean Faded silks.

Faded silks can be restored by being
sponged with weak ammonia water and
afterward rubbed with soft cloth.
Old black silks are improved by a
sponge bath of spirits and water, and
cloth dresses by being brushed with
blue water. After the gown has been
beaten and busted thoroughly dip the
bristles of clothes brush into blue wa
ter and brush the dress quickly. To re-
move grease spots from skirt of wool
en- or other material use benzine. Un-
pick the hem or band of the skirt and
lay piece of flannel or blotting paper
beneath the soil; above it put SECOND
piece of blotting paper and on this rest
hot iron until the stain is removed

AUGUST PROVERBS.
Quaint PrOgnOsticatiOns for That
Month Made by Ancient Wea-
ther FOrecaster.

That great heat in August was not
considered undesirable by the old-time
weather observers is shown by some of
their declarations, which, with others
for every month, have been collected
and put into book form under the mod
est title of "Weather Proverbs" says
the Philadelphia North American.
Hereis the chapter devoted to August:
Thunderstorms after Bartholomew's
day, gath, are mostly violent.
When the dew is heavy in August
the weather generally remains fair.
When in the beginning of August thun-
derstorms are passing they will gem
orally last to the end of the month.
AS August, so the next February
fair or stormy.
As Bartholomew's day, so the whole
autumn.
If the first week in August is unusually
warm,
The winter will be white and warm.
When the months of July, August
and September are unusually hot, JAM
uary will be the coolest month.
A wet August never bring dearth.

If the 24th of August be bright and clear,
Then hope for a prosperous autumn that

him away and said nothing for mo-
