a Use For ola Mosquito Netting.

\ good suggestion is Il use fer mos
quito netting after it has done duty on
bars or MS bed canopy OF it excellent
wash and dish cloths may be made.
The netting should be folded several
times six or eight at least. and the
square made considerably larger than
desired. rs the material shrinks great
deal. The thicknesses are then to be
quilted in long stitches and at wide in
tcrvals with white darning cotton, the
edges turned in where they are not
folded, and the article is ready. If the
netting is colored, toss the cloths into
the boiler before using and boil out the
dye. Tho wearing quality of these net
ting cloths is almost uneXcelled, while
the loose mesh makes them very salts
factory to use.

WRINKLE DON'TS.
Don't frown, don't scowl.

Ion IrOWn, QOnt ScOWl.
Don't sit facing strong light.
Don't stoop or bend over while writ
ing or reading.
Don't worry. but if worry you must
keep the forehead smooth-don't wrin-
kle it.
Don't wear tight shoes. They make
a young face look old, drawn and
wrinkled in a few hours.
Don't neglect the ten minutes rest
during the day, with the feet raised. 1t
gives the whole body a great sense of
repose and works wonders in smooth
ing out the lines of the face.
Don't speak with all the muscles of
the face. 1t is very charming and cap
tivating to be deeply, deadly in ear
nest, but facial grimaces form creases
which in time will become fixed.
Don't let insomnia get the upper
hand. BY all means in your power try
to break up the habit. Sleeplessness is
often caused by unconscious hunger,
and cup of hot water or hot milk or
a biscuit will often induce sleep.
Don't 20 too long without food, Hun
ger gives Il strained look to the face.
Now and then if one is fatigued a bite
between meals will invigorate the
whole system and give relaxation and
repose to strained muscles and nerves.

The Higher Education.

President David Starr Jordan of the
Leland Stanford, Jr, university says:
1.-The highest product of social evolu-
ton is the growth of the civilized home,
the home that only wise, cultured and
high minded women can make To fur
nish such women is one of the wor-
thiest functions of higher education"
And President Jordan, who, as the
head of a coeducational university, has
unusual opportunities of forming an
opinion, adds to the general belief
when he says that higher education not
only does not act rs a encouragement
of marriage. hut is Il positive induce
ment to it and so to the establishment
OF homes. All investigations and obser-
vations prove that the proportion Of
marriage is as large and the result as
happy among highly educated women
as among those less favored. Philadel-

An Ironing Hint,

4 good way to prevent the hand from
becoming heated when one has Il large
ironing before her is to put Il piece of
thin leather and a piece of paper next
TO the top layer when making the iron
ing holder. | use the top part ST an old
shoe. Also put piece of cloth like the
cover one, half the size of the holder,
on the outside. Sew around the edge
when sewing cover on. but leave it free
in the center of holder and slip the
fingers into this pocket when ironing,
which prevents the heat reaching
them.

Into a quart bottle put cupful of

half an ounce ammonia and fill it up
with hot water Let it stand twenty
four hours before using. Into basin

Spirit of the Homo.

There are dwellings where physical
health, refinement, well to do circum-
stances and no trouble of any impor-
lance lack but one thing-the optimistic
spirit of the mother. There is no use
denying a fact which we all know.
The spirit of the home follows that of
the mother If she is lively, so will
her household be; if she is pessimistic.
the poison will sooner or later eat its
way into every member Of the family,
especially into the masculine portion
of it. Why? Because the mothers at
titude toward life influences her sons
more than her daughters. \ woman
does not influence another woman to
any great extent mentally Neither
does a man influence Il woman as she
influences him. Unless through force
or through love for him, woman will
do pretty much as she pleases, but
man is likely to be influenced at any
moment by any woman, whether he
loves her or not.

suited In an inquiry for an article OF
domestic manufacture, wholly free
from anything Of harmful or deleteri.
GUS nature. and at price that would
commend Its use to all. The failure

Therefore We are prepared to place

lower price.
Our goods being manufactured from
the choicest barley malt and the hest
