Ire RefriueratOr.

To keep a refrigerator clean and
free from OdOrs demands more vigil
lance and time than the average do
nestle is willing to devote to this
work hence the house mistress will
do wisely to have the operation per-
formed under her own personal super-
vision at least once a week. 1t is i'm
porUant that the refrigerator itself be
in perfect condition, for if the lining
be broken the moisture will inevita-
bly, soak into the wood, causing the
latter to become musty aud malari-
Gus. When the ice box is cleaned
everything should first be removed
IRON it; then the shelves scrubbed
with hot soapsuds, rinsed in boiling
water and set in the sunlight or by
the range to dry; next the ice rack
should be removed and washed in the
same way, the grooves or wires being
brushed with hard scrubbing brush
in order to disIodge every particle of
dirt; and finally the entire refrigera-
tor should bescrubbed out with scald-
ing soapsuds in which plenty ofwash-
ing soda has been dissolved, being
then rinsed with clean hot water,
wiped dry and put out in the open
air or in a strong draught for an
hour or two.-The Designer.

Some Reasons for Daily Exercise.

Any man who does not take time
for exercise will probably have to
make time to be ill.
Body and mind are both gifts and
for the proper use of them our Maker
will hold us responsible.
Exercise gradually increases the
physical powers, and gives more
strength to resist sickness.
Exercise will do for your body what
intellectual training will do for your
mind-educate and strengthen it.
Plato called a man lame because he
exercised the mind while the body
was allowed to suffer.
A sound body lies at the foundation
of all that goes to make life asuccess.
Exercise will help to give 1t.
Exercise will help young man to
lead a chaste life.
Varied, light and brisk exercise,
next to sleep, will rest the tired brain
better than anything else.
Metal will rust if not used, and the
body will become diseased itnot exer'
cised.

his health is like workman too busy

A clerical friend of mine, says a wri-
ter in the New York Tribune, told me
a capital story of a Yale man who
was the stroke oar of his crew and the
chief athlete on the football field.
He entered the ministry and spent
years in missionary labor in the far
West. Walking one day through a
frontier town, cowboy stepped up to
him and said:
"Parson, you don't have enough fun.
Take a drink
The minister declined.
well" he said. "parson. you must
have some fun. Here's a faro layout.
Take hand in the game"
The minister declined.
"Parson, said the cowboy, you'll
die if you don't have some fun"
And he knocked the parsons hat off
his head and hit him a whack on the
ear.
The old athletes spirit rose; the
science which had been learned in the
college gymnasium and forgotten for
a quarter of a century was aroused, a
blow landed on the Jaw of that cowboy
and sent him sprawling in the street.
The parson walked over him as if he
had been a door rug. picked him up
and busted the side of the house with
him and then mopped up the sidewalk
with his form.
AS the ambulance was carrying the
cowboy off, he raised his hat feebly
and said:
"Parson, what did you fool me for?
You are chock full of fun"

You may find this little programme
of service:
When you go aboard make your way
to the pile of deck chairs near the
companionway and upset all of them
in your effort to find two that have
backs on them.
When you have found the chairs, Sc
lect good positions near the rail and
sit down on the chairs for five minutes.
Then get up.
Remark that you wonder why the
boat doesn't start.
Pick up your chairs and go aft. Find
another spot and sit down again for
five minutes.
Get up, take the chairs and go to
the lower deck and sit down where you
will block the gangway.
After some rude, uncultured person
tells you to get out of the way, take
your chairs again and return to the
main deck. This time glance scornfully
AT the persons VINO are occupying the
places you first had, and then sit down
III the sun.
Wait here until the boat starts. Now
get UP again and carry the chairs to
the starboard side and step on some
ones toes. Walk about aimlessly,
humping the chairs into other people
Climb to the hurricane deck and
place your chairs in the shade of the
pilothousa
When the porter asks you to move,
that he may get into the captains
cabin, do so, but say things about his
being fresh.
Carry the chairs back to the shade
of the wheelbox and find the sun shifts
as soon as you reach Fort Carroll.
Carry the chairs all over the boat
and fail to find shady spot.
Put the chairs down for a minute
while you and Maggie go over to talk
to Bill and Lizzie.
Then when you are on the home trip
by moonlight, all you have to do is to
sit on the hurricane deck with your
army around the lady and sing 1.-THE
Holy City" in the wrong key all the
way home.
Follow these rules, and, while you
may not consider them just the proper
thing, you will find that you are not
made conspicuous because of the odd
ity of your conduct.

The two wildcats in a box in bag
gageroom at the Union depot had glar-
ed at each other for a couple of hours
last evening before the trouble began,
says the Denver Republican. All the
afternoon they had growled. and the
supposition is that they had said
things to each other that were not
complimentary. The larger of the two
had spilled the water belonging to the
smaller one. He had switched his tail
into the others face and in various
ways had given the youngster to un-
derstand that there was apt to be
trouble. Toward evening the two sat
in opposite corners and glared at each
other. The larger animal about s
o'clock thought it was time to make
the interior of the box interesting to
one of the occupants. He was success
full.
No sooner had the big cat attacked
the smaller one than the latter was
ready for business. There was a mass
of tangled fur inside the box, the sides
of which groaned with the struggle.
Growls and flying fur came out from
between the cracks, and those who
were looking on could not tell which
was the winner. Several of the bag
gagemen caught up sticks and
through the Sits in the box succeeded
finally in poking the beasts into sub
mission. AS the two wildcats covered
down in opposite corners a South
American parrot swinging in a cage
near by called out:
Let 'em fight It's a peachi"
