How to Clean Clothes.

A saturated solution of borax and
water rubbed on with a sponge, then
followed by clear water, will remove
a glaze, the result Of wear, from black
goods.
Borax is one of the best things for
the removal of grease spots from wool

it forms an important part IS made by
dissOlving one ounce of powdered borax
in one quart of boiling water and set
ting it aside to cool. When quite cold,

terials are commonplace articles to be
found in every household. \ cut raw

when you get mud stains on your black

stains remain rub the cut surface of a
raw potato over the spots.

quently, or it will become still more
impoverished.
An excellent shampoo is made by
melting a cake Of pure CASTLE or olive
oil soap shaved into thin slices in
quart Of boiling water When the soap
is thoroughly dissolved, the result will
be of jeIlylike consistency. Add to it
one teaspOOnful Of bicarbOnate Of soda,
and when cool perfume it or not, as
preferred. Put the result away in a
wide mOuthed jar for use. For a sham
poo wet the scalp with hot water and
rub a small quantity of the mixture
well into the roots. Rinse afterward in
several waters, each one becoming cool
er and cooler. Where dandruff is pres

Mix these ingredients, and when the
mixture is cold bottle it for use, and

RULES FOR HEALTH.
How to Keep Well According to DR..
S~hsFeninger.

S@hweninger.
Let parents make it their chief care
to build up for their children a sound
body, body capable alike Of work and
of enjoyment. As soon as a child is old
enough to help building up his or her
body let him or her take a hand in it.
Teach the young that sOundness Of
body and mind is the main thing in
life, that without this boon nothing
really counts. Give the sound body
plenty of exercise, but don't overwork
it either in point of enjoyment or in
point Of business.
If at one time or another you have
overworked your body, don't worry
about it, but guard against repetition.
Repetition leads to bad habits.
Be independent. Don't do things be-
cause you see other people do them.
Admire courage and practice it. Ii
midity is hateful.
Don't worry about the enemy fl.au
without-bacilli, changes in the wealth
er, etc.-but try to steel your body
against their influence. They mustn't
be allowed to get in or hurt it,,
Remember that it's your own faults
that count most.
Don't think that good health comes
as present to you or that you will re-
cover from Illness owing to some &C.
cult influences. To have and to hold
good health you must work for it,
strive for it.
If you want the physician to help
you, you must help the physician. You
must work hand in hand with him.
Don't forget that it's yourself who
decides upon soundness and i'll health
of your body. If you are unwilling to
assist your physician, you rob him of
the most important factor in medicine
Don't become a slave to habit.
Let your body and soul live in harmo-
ny together

OF Good breeding.

cup. Crack the top off your egg in
stead of peeling it.
If you have bacon or fish, have a sep
arate plate for your bread or toast and
butter, but not when only having boiled
eggs, which require very careful eating,
by the bye, as nothing looks so nasty
as yolk of egg spilled all over the plate
and egg cup.
Do not sip your tea or coffee with
spoon.
DO not drain the cup.
For fish do not use a dessert knife
instead Of the fish knife. If there be
no fish knife, use a small crust CT your
bread, but leave that piece Of crust on
your plate Do not eat it afterward,
as so many people do.
Do not be dainty and fringe your
plate with bits of meat: Eat what you
can and put any skin or bone on the
edge Of your plate in one little heap,
which move down from the edge when
you have finished
DO not crumple up your table napkin.
