SOftepjnU Wafor.

If the hardness of the water is only
temporary and due to the lime in tho
fresh plaster you can adopt the plan
used by engineers who wish to soften
the supply of water used by q town.
This is done by adding TO the water
III the cistern, the object being to rid
the water of the excess OF carbon dloS-
idc which holds the carbonate OF nine
resent in the water in solution. Inc
lime combines with the carbon dloX-
idc to form chalk. and the carbon dlox-
ide being removed from the water can
no longer dissolve the carbonate OF
lime. and this, together with the chalk
formed, is thrown down. About one
tenth part clear lime water is used.
Rolling will soften and rid the water
OF temporary hardness, but this is
more tedious process than using the
lime

The woman who understands house
hold sanitation examines all her house
hold premises with a scientific intelli-
sence She begins in the cellar with
the hygienic coat OF whitewash, which
lurifies the air and drives out the
dampnesS. This whitewaSh is not put
on for appearance, but for effect. It
destroys the dangerous germs which
Turk in the mould found in damp
places. Every particle of old vege-
table matter and all debris that has
lain in the cellar bins must be cleaned
away to insure perfect sanitation.
When the cellar has close odor it
IS a good plan to purify the air by
burning a little birthstone before the
vhitewash is put on. This will de-
strOy mould most effectually in some
PLACE where the coat of whitewash
does not reach. If the cellar has been
Systematically aired and there is no
sign Of mould about the place, it will
rot be necessary to fumigate it. 1t
only requires a small amount Of brim
stone to purify the air of mouldy
cellar. After fumigation open the win
dows in the day time and air the
place thoroughly When the air out
side the cellar is warmer than that
of the cellar the windows must be
oren at night and not during the day.
The ceilings as we'll as the floor of
the cellar must be thoroughly brushed.
At least ouce or twice a year-and
the spring is the best time-the ce
nented cellar floor must he disinfect
eG with copperas. This can easily be
done by strong workman with mop
or sponge, after the floor has been
thoroughly swept. Sprinkle dirt
floor with copperas. Ten cents worth
OF copperas dissolved in two pals of
hot water is sufficient for a cellar of
ordinary size. The same solution
should be poured down every cesspool,
Grain and any other place outside
which needs purification.-NeW York

Suggestion That Caused . Thirty Crowd
to Rejoice.
Four or FIVE good fellows, in the
same line Of business, recently "swore
off," They had never tppled to e1
cess, but they took a notion that it
would be good thing to quit, and
accordingly quit for period Of thirty
days. The agreement was drawn up
in writing and signed by each. The
third day after some Of the parties to
the agreement began to chafe under
the restraint. They had never before
felt the need Of drink quite as badly
as after the ink used In drawing up
the agreement had become dry. One
Of them. at last, dropped in on one Of
the others, and of course. the swear
ing off proposition was Immediately
brought up.
I'D like awful well to have nip"
said the caller
Same here" was the response
But l don't see how we can get
around that agreement"
Neither do l."
Il read once that no document, how
ever carefully drawn, will stand in
court, IL 1t is attacked in the right
way"
Il see a CLEAN OF hope" was the re-
ply. Lets read this agreement over
carefully" They did SO, and it was
discovered that the agreement did
not call for thirty consecutive days,
but merely for thirty days. The man
that hit upon this bright idea was
hailed as a born lawyer. who was
wasting his time in the railroad bust
ness. There was an immediate adj
journment to a popular West Superior
street thirst cure.-Duluth News-Tri-

NEW MEXICO PINE
A. Substitute for the White Pine If
Northern States.

A Substitute for the White Pine of
Northern States. ....
Neso York Sun Special Service
Chicago, March S.-The fact that the
white pine forests of the Lake SUPERIOR
country and Canada are being drawn on
for lumber so heavily that the exhaustion
of the supply is considered to be only a
matter of few years has caused capf-
talists to embark in a novel undertaking
These men have formed a company
which proposes to substitute in the mar
ket the pine of New Mexico for the Michi-
gan pine. The undertaking is based on
the belief that many lunbermen hold that
the relief Of the Lake Superior forests
must come from regions hitherto un-
worked; also. ON the opinion given
by experts that the pine Of New Mexico
offers an available substitute for the
Michigan pine. An $8,000,000 COMPANY
has been formed under the laws of New
Jersey and will have it's headquarters in
Chicago. Local men back of the scheme
are A. R. Chapman, president Of the new
company; T.. E. Crepin, the vice presi-
dent, and Albert R. Fay, traffic manager
for Swift & Co., who is one Of the direct
ors D. w. G. Merriam is the company's
attorney.
The company has purchased tract of
800, 900 acres in Mckinley and Valencia
counties of New Mexico, which is saio to
contain 2.OOO.00O,000 feet of white pine
The tract Of land was purchased from the
Mitchell brothers Of Cadillac, Mich, we'll
known lumbermen, who have owned it for
years, fore Seeing the present dearth in
white pine. 1t is the purpose of the COM
rany to erect at once several sawmills
and begin numbering as fast as the mar
ket requires. It is understood that traf-
flc arrangements have been made with
the Santa Fe railroad. The land is re-
ported to contain gold, copper, and gyp-
sum deposits. which will be mined when
the lumber has been cleared.
