They Hopped.

Now that the college vacations are
over" said the man who has several
SONS in the universities, I'm just be-
ginning to adjust myself to the real
English language again. While my
children were home there was much
slang talked about the house, and I
tried to keep pace with it, not to use
it, of course, but to understand what
it meant. The term the boys used
most was the verb hop Jack would
hop over to Brooklyn to see his Aunt
Alice, or, it might be, he would only
hop up stairs But it was always
hop. Then they were talking about
the chances of my eldest son, who is a
junior in college, being president OF
his class in senior year. No. said
the youngest, Tom can't get that; he
doesn't throw out his chest enough
That meant bring himself prominently
before his classmates. Still another
term was to get pushed back for SO
much money, meaning to spend It. But
the most remarkable term of all was
that of my daughter, Is years old, who
is at boarding school. She speaks Of
all her boy friends as 'genties.'"

To Renovate Carpets.

Carpets which have grown dirty,
have lost their color and have become
dull and old-looking can be nicely reno,
waited in the following manner Cut
up into very small pieces about an
ounce of laundry soap and make it
into lather with a pint of boiling
water, then add another quart of wa
ter and an ounce of borax. Put this
mixture on the range and bring it to
a boil; then remove IL and when 1t is
quite cold add one ounce of alcohol,
one of ammonia and one-half ounce
of glycerin. Do but a small portion
CT the carpet at a time and renovate
it by wetting clean flannel cloth in
this mixture and rubbing in vigorously
until the spots are removed and the
color brought back. Another way to
bring the color out may be used, and
it may be accomplished in the or.
binary sweeping if salt or dried tea
leaves or a mixture of both be thickly
sprinkled on the carpet an hour be-
tore the sweeping is begun. Use a
good, stiff brush when sweeping and
The whole appearance Of the carpet
will be marvelously improved.

saw an old fashioned set of
carved Neapolitan coral the other day
which was being utilized in a pretty
way. The brooch was used to hold
the lace collar in place, and the ear
rings were arranged to fasten the
front of a handsome white embroid-
cred waist.
Another brooch served as belt
buckle or clasp, the whole giving the
most effective finish to- handsome
toilet. l saw another quaint ornament
the other day that was the result of
a girls rummage through an old BOX
of her mothers. 1t was most ex-
quisite bit of moss agate, perfect oval
in shape, set in rim of gold and
worn on slender old chain as neck
lace. 1t attracted a great deal of
attention, almost every one who saw
it asking what it was.
1t has a story, too, for years ago,
when brilliant Anna Dickinson was at
the height of her fame and glory, she
brought it from Colorado and gave
it to her friend, who was the girls
mother. She had cherished it care
fully for years, but in some way it
was mislaid, and she thought it lost
until it was found in this almost for
gotten box of treasures by her daugh-
Herald.

Alcohol VS., Strenuth,

The laborer. the traveller, and the
soldier use alcohol under the delusion
that 1t produces strength. When IA
tigued, the laborer takes a glass of
grog, and feels better. He imagines
himself stronger. His increased
strength, however, is wholly matter
of imagination.
The use of alcohol makes man
feel stronger-makes him believe that
he can do. more work, endure more
fatigue and hardship, and Withstand a
greater degree of cold than he could
without it; but when an actual trial
is made, it soon becomes apparent
that the ability is lacking. Numerous
experiments have shown that alcohol
decreases muscular strength Says
DR.. Brunton, "The smallest quantity
takes somewhat from the strength of
the muscles Says DR.. Edmunds, of
London, "A stimulant is that which
gets strength out of man."
Some years ago series of expert
ments were made for the purpose of
determining the influence of alcohol
upon the muscular strength. The
combined strength of all the different
groups of muscles in the body was
found, in the case of a healthy young
man, to be 1881 pounds. The young
man was then given two ounces of
brandy, and the test was repeated.
He felt confident that his strength
was increased. In fact, it was found
% be only 1886 pounds, loss of more
han one-third. A notable diminution
n strength was still present ten hours
'fter the administration of the
brandy.

The Importance that Attaches to the Care
of tho Blood II One Wants Bright Eyes
and Clear Complexion.
Every sensible woman naturally wishes
to appear attractive. She knows the value
of bright eyes, delicate complexion and
lively spirits. She knows also that
good health is at the basis of her charms,
and that good blood is the source of good
health.
Miss Mamie Conway has complexion
which is the admiration of all who know
her Asked if she could make any sug-
gestions that would be helpful to others
less fortunate, she said:
"My complexion would not have
pleased you, if you had seen it two years
ago. 1t was then about as bad as it
could be, and it gave me great deal of
dissatisfaction. If you want a good
complexion you must take care of your
health, especially of the condition of
your blood. My health was at that time
completely broken down. i was nervous,
had frequent headaches, a torpid liver
and great deal of pain in that region.
I suffered also from indigestion. 1t was
clear that my blood was in bad condition,
for pimples broke out all over my face.
cit is hard to realize that, for there
isn't the slightest trace Of such blem-
ishes now"
cit was unfortunately quite other
wise then, and long time passed before
I found anything that gave me any re.
lief. I became very weak and listless.
The doctors medicine did me no good,
and I took number of highly recon-
mended tonics with no better result.
AS soon, however, as began to use DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People my
complexion cleared up, and after had
taken two boxes there was not sign of
a pimple left on my face. My cheeks
became rosy, I gained flesh ard have had
perfect health ever since"

There is a strong demand from
many quarters for an improvement IN
the long prevailing method OF bread
making. In the first place, ob1ectlon
is now made against the time-honorea
yeast process, which is said to be un.
clearly, and the salt leaven" method
recommended; but this is rather more
difficult to bring about, for the reason
that a very delicate regulation OF tenn
perature Is necessary.
Another objection raised against the
present manner of making bread IS the
use Of the hands in the mixing OF the
dough, which is said to be very I'M
sanitary operation and should be avoid
ed. AS the dough must be mixed, IL
is said that 1t can be done more thor
oughly and in a more clearly manner

The Price of Indoor Life.

Within the past twenty years there
has been steady development of con.
fdence in the out-of-door method of
treating pulmonary tuberculosis. The
wonderful success that has attended
the outdoor treatment in all countries,
irrespective of altitude or special eli.
matte advantages, has demonstrated
the immense value of the outdoor life
as curative means. This is not sur
prising, since man is naturally an out
of-door animal. The indoor life which
most civilized human beings live is
wholly artificial. We pay an enor-
nous price for the luxury of living in
houses. Not only pulmonary tuber-
culosis, but large number of other
chronic maladies are the natural out
growth of the lowered vital resistance
which results from the conditions i'm
posed by modern civilized life.
We have become too much civilized.
A mild return to savagery is the one
thing needful at the present time. In
cold weather we can not live out of
doors, but we can take care to supply
our living rooms, and especially our
bedrooms with an abundant supply of
pure cold air. This is very excel
lent remedy for morning headaches,
which usually mean air-poisoning.

is clogged. If too little draft is sup.
piled the fuel is not entirely con.
sumed. This leaves "cinders" which
are the cause of many chronic dis
eases, and of premature old age.
The fuel supply may be regulated in
the dining room. The draft is depend
ent on the kind and amount of air
breathed. Cold, crisp, fresh air fur
nishes perfect draft. The blood takes
from this kind of air. when it is
breathed in, just the element needed
to burn the food.
Six breaths of outdoor air contain
as much of this acknowledgements
seven breaths of overheated, indoor
air. AS man breathes about eighteen
times per minute this means loss of
four thousand breaths day by living
in hot. close indoor atmosphere.
The amount taken in depends on the
habits of life. A deep breath must be
earned. A few moments vigorous out
dor exercise will do it. The nostrils
dilate, the chest heaves, the heart
quickens, the lungs expand, and the
fresh air is pumped into the body at
a rapid rate. The draft is open. The
cinders are burning up. The whole
system is being cleared of rubbish.
Don't be afraid of cold air. There's
life and health out of doors.

"A cur" they called him, just "a cuv,'

There wasn't an ounce of fat,
The men would cuff him, kick him sore,
And curse him out of breath
If dogs could reason, what they're for.
This dog would welcome death.
The boys tied tin cans to his tail
And chased him down the street;
The fatter dogs took up his vail
Sleek dogs of the elite.

And by the mournful look he wore

Along that way there came a man.
His form was bent low with age.
Street urchins scoffed and round him ran
To tease his helpless rage.
The housewives turned him from their
door
Whenever he begged bone;
And by the mournfuI look he wore.

He met the dirty, dingy cur
He stroked the appraised head;

The cur trots on from day to day
