FOR THE HOUSEWIFE

The top Of the lower part Of the cup
board in black should have a rich blue
scarf to cover it. On this gay-in fact

or mats should be placed for decanters,
pitchers, or cracker jars, or a few Rus
sion lacquered pieces.
A fish market man gives this simple
rule for fish buyers to follow if they
would secure fish that is eatable and
certainly free OF the ptomaines Of
which so many fish lovers stand in
dread: See that the flesh is so firm that
IL win not be dented on pressure by
the fingers that the eyes are full. the
scales bright. the fms stiff, and the
gills are of the brightest. neither pale
nor a dark liver color. Then, if there
is no odor to the fish. it may be eaten
with safety
When a black bag looks shabby and
worn, sponge it with warm soda water.
When soaked with this, apply a coat of

any surplus ink with a damp rag, and
brush the bag all over with the stale

make her Independent of her servants;
shS will cease to worry over little
things, and to nag at her husband; (;
she'll forget the ircidentals in her abil-
ity to sec lie steadily and see il

interfered with by the absence OF several
OF the physicians to whom were assigned
papers. but the sessions have been excep-
tionally interesting Notwithstanding these
untoward circumstances. and the members
OF the association who are here are well
pleased with their entertainment. The mis-
leading statements which were scattered
broadcast during the past two weeks TO
the effect that the city would be so crowded
with Woodmen that hotel accommodations
could not be secured unless engaged far In
advance are held responsible for the COM
paratively small attendance OF the sur
geons.
The sessions yesterday included the trans
action OF miscellaneous business and the
reading and discussion OF a number OF pa
pers on purely technical subjects. One. OF
the most interesting OF the papers was that
