Peruna is such a perfect specific for each

.hey can never be induced to quit it until
they are permanently cured. 1t begins to

CARE OF SEWING MACHINES
How to Clean and Keep Them In
Good Order.

How to Clean and Keep Them In
Good Order.
A sewing machine must not be ex-
pected to run well unless it is kept
clean and oiled as often as necessary,
says the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Keep soft duster always in one of the
aide drawers and use it every time you
sit down to the machine. Sometimes it
may be necessary to use little brush
with stiff bristles to get into the crew
ices or q soft, fine twine to draw be-
tween parts to get out the dust and
lint.
The matter of oiling depends alto
gether upon how much the machine is
used. Do not drench the machine with
oil, but put drop or two in each little
hole designed for it and nowhere else.
When about to sew wipe with the dust
er the bottom of the shoulder on the
left hand side, through which the steel
bars of the presser foot and needle
socket descend. This is where the oil
comes from that sometimes makes un-
slightly spots on the work When not
in use keep the machine covered and
the leather strap slipped off the large
wheel. 1t will last longer and stretch
less If this precaution is taken. If
the machine stand in one of the liv-
ing rooms and there are young children
in the house, release the device which
most modern machines have at the
right hand for connecting the driving
wheels with the upper parts. Probably
good deal Of wear and tear will thus
be avoided, and, If necessary. keep the
machine locked.

fsOfng Things ON Time May Be Carr
ried to Dangerous Extremes.
An eminent physician at a recent
gathering of his profession directed
notice afresh to the daily tension under
which most Americans do their work.
We rise on time. he remarked, In the
morning, whether by an alarm clock,
by the call of servant or by habit, eat
breakfast and read the paper on time,
a clock in every room and watch fire.
quently in our hand. We then, on time,
meet Office and outside engagements,
always precon5idering the amount of
time that will be required and timing
the next engagement accordingly. Of
ten we subdiyide this time and note by
our watches exactly how long we can
discuss a subject.
Doubtless punctuality is virtue.
Doubtless also the practice of doing
things exactly on time has won for us
as a people a large measure of indus
trial success But, carried to an ex-
treme, as it often Is, it is wearing to
the individual. The people whose
nerves break down from exhaustion
incident to overwork are often not so
much the victims of overwork as the
habit of compressing every bit of work
within prearranged limits of time. Let
any one try the experiment of doing a
given piece of work steadily and with
application, but without noticing by
his watch or clock how much time he Is
consuming, and he will be amazed to
find how much easier it will go than
when he is timing himself and schem-
ing to bring the prescribed task within
a fixed number of minutes.
We know great deal more about
sanitary matters than our fathers and
grandfathers knew We have hunted
down microbes. We have concocted
serums. Diseases which were once re-
garded as visitations of Providence we
now know to be preventable, and we
take suitable means of preventing
them. All these discoveries and new
remedies ought to diminish the death
rate and to promote longevity. They
have not done so, as a matter of fact
Perhaps they might do so if they had q
fair chance The trouble is that along
with these devices for lengthening life
we are adopting practices which tend
to shorten it. One of the most wear
ing of these is the habit of bringing all
details of our work within exact time
limits.-Boston Transcript
