Out of the cold weather have grown
some enormous stories. A farmer
said today that the coolest weather
in his community was that which
sent the mercury below two thermo-
meters, one hanging below the other.
The story is told of cold splitting big
trees in two near Arpin. In the third
ward lit is said, is cistern was so deeply
frozen that the ice projects below the
bottom. A farmer from Four Mile
creek claimed that it was so cold one
day that mist formed in the air
which he believed was liquid air. A
lumberjack, who was in the city the
other day from Milladore, earnestly
affirmed that they made axes out of
beefSteak; after it freezes it
becomes so rigid that any soft wood
can readily be chopped with the
improvised axes. Besides this, some
Of the railroad men going through
this city assert as positive truth
that even the steam in the boilers was
frozen, as proven by the noise similar
to hail striking the whistle when it
was blown.

There has been some reason in the

since the opening OF the year, for the
thermometer has seen fit to register
below zero twenty-one days during
January and sixteen days in February
up to yesterday. Some of the old
settlers say that it has been the cold
est winter that they can remember.
1t is safe to say, however, that the
winter of 1903-1904 holds the record
over the past twenty-five or thirty
years for continuous Zero-weather.
The coolest day of the year was

registered 50 degrees below zero: dur.

coolest weather was on February II,
the temperature being % degrees

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE


Polished dining tables are rarely COW
cred between meals with large
spread A newer idea is to use only
q centerpiece and, by way Of further
Establishment, place upon 1t a tall vase
or rose bowl filed with cut flowers,
potted plant or silver dish filed with
ferns. The size of the centerpiece may
vary from twenty-four to sixty inches
In diameter or even larger, according
to the dimensions of the table and to
individual taste.
The most elegant centerpieces are Of
In shape, with rather small center of
white linen and the lace edge richly
embroidered In wash silk. To the
novice 1t may seem very much like
gliding gold to embroider lace, but it
must be conceded that the lace and re-
fected lights of highly polished mahog-
any or oak make a rarely beautiful
background for the luxurious sprays
Of roses or fruit and foliage designs
which are showered upon it. The en-
broidery must be done with fine floss
and the colorings of nature as well as
the shading closely followed, after pad
ding the design heavily with white
cotton floss.
A less expensive design in dark eff
fects is obtained with a centerpiece of
brown linen with an artistic conven-
tonal design richly tinted and en-
broidered in heavy silks to correspond
with the colors in the design. The
edges may be- completed with en-
brofdery or a band of Russian lace,
this being the most elegant Squares
Of fine Irish linen beautifully enriched
with drawn work and hemstitched bor-
ders are always in taste. A really fine
piece of linen is good investment, for
with ordinary care it will last for years
ard improve with frequent laundering.
A clever needlewoman can readily
make these articles during spare mo-
ments and save considerable expense.
Square and round dining tables are
equally fashionable, although the
housekeeper, ever on the alert for a
change, is going back to the oval shape

To Remove spots.

For cleaning spots on the carpet OK
gall or ammonia water is excellent,
according to woman who ought to be
an authority on such subjects, says an
exchange. The proportion is one Ia
blespoonful of household ammonia to
four quarts Of water or one tablespoon
full Of OK gall to one quart of water.
Apply with a flannel or sponge, not too
wet, and rub the spot until nearly dry.
Lime spots may be removed with vine
gar, according to the same authority.
This must be used quickly and washed
of Immediately. For SCOT spots cover
with salt or cornmeal and sweep up.
Ink spots may be removed by pour
ing on milk and as it becomes colored
absorbing it with blotter or other
soft absorbent paper. Coarse butchers
paper is good for this purpose. When
the ink is removed, wash with warm
water and CASTLE soap-never use a
stronger soap-to remove the grease
spot caused by the milk.
