tremendously bid him or her "au re-
voir" at parting. Not only every man
and woman expects this, but all the
little children toddle up to you, shake
hands and exact the same amount of
ceremony. Then every well regulated
French family has dog that more
than likely occupies chair and eats
off a plate beside you at the table, so
that it is considered cburIish if you do
not also stop and tell the dog ''bon

and parting from her. In the operation
of receiving and paying for linen you
exchange "mercis" and "pardonsy not
fewer than ten times. Any other serv-
ing person or tradesman who comes to
do business with you throughout the
day you similarly receive with '.bon

pardon as often as you can possibly
get the words into the length of time
he has to stay. -Harpers Bazar

How to Make Apple Bread.

Boil a dozen good sized apples that
have been carefully peeled, cored and
quarteraI in water enough to cover
until they are perfectly tender. While
still warm mash them in double the
amount of -four and add the proper
proportion of yeast and level table
spoonful of salt. The mass should then
be thoroughly lSpeaded without water,
as the juice Of the apples will make it
sufficiently soft. 1t should be left to
rise for twelve hours, then formed into
loayes and baked when quite light.
Apple bread was the invention of a
scientific Frenchman, and it has al
ways been highly commended for its
healthfuIness.

How Time and Labor Can BE saved
In Homework.

Oileloth on shelves, etc, should al
ways have brown paper put beneath it
1t will then wear much longer and will
not crack SO easily. says the Boston
Globe
To tighten labor and make the iron
ing day less firing Try standing on a
cushion made Of old pieces of carpet.
Until this has been tried no one can
believe the rest it is TO the feet.
Plates heated in the oven sometimes
become smoked and burned If the
stains do not come off with washing a
little common salt rubbed in is excel
lent and viii entirely remove all marks.
Save all the empty match boxes and
when laying a fire break them open
and use instead of paper. or, at least.
use very little paper. The fire will
light very quickly With these. and they
leave no ashes like paper
Before hemming taDlecloths, table
napkins. etc. the edges should be made
perfectly straight Instead Of cutting
with scissors a thread should be drawn
out, then you will get an absolutely
even line
TO prevent sticking and burning
when frying fish, etc, when the fat
comes to boiling point sprinkle the
bottom Of the pan with salt. This also
prevents the fat from splashing.
To keep lemons fresh for long time
put them in stone crock and cover
Them with cold w;,tpr
When spoons become discolored from
eggs seour them with fine table salt
This will remove the discoloration,
which is caused by the sulphur in the
eggs.
II grease is spilled on the kitchen
table sprinkle the stain at once with
coarse salt. This prevents the grease
from soaking into the wood.
The best way to clean doormats is
to turn them upside down and give
them u vigorous stamping with the
feet This frees the dust better than
shaking the mat
If milk happens to burn when you
are boiling it pour it at once into jug
and stand the jug in basin, of cold
water till cool, when it will probably
be perfectly free from all disagreeable

Animals Enjoy Racing.

Little pigs are great at combined
play. which generally takes the form
of races. Emulation seems to form
part of their amusement, for their races
seem always to have the winning of
first place for their object and are quite
different from those combined rushes
for food or causeless stampedes in
which little pigs are wont to indulge.
Racing is an amusement natural to
some animals and, being soon taught
by others. becomes one of their most
exciting pastimes London Tit-Bits.

How to Relieve Tired Eyes.

Salt water is the best remedy for
eyes tired from sewing, reading or writ
ing. Take Il cnpful of water; add salt
enough to make it quite perceptible to
the taste. Hold your eyes to the water
SO that the Iashes touch it; wink once,
and the eyes will be suffused. Do not
wipe them. This so refreshes the eyes
that they feel like a new pair. Do not
forget the good old rule, AS soon as
you feel your eyes stop using them

In cases of nervous prostration at
tacks of hysferia are common Such at
tacks should be gently but firmly treat

is to hold them for moment in the
