USES FOR HOT WATER.

Although beauty doctors do rot
sing the praises Of hot water treat
ment for the toilet, here are many
ways in which this in invaluable. To
drink bowl of II every night is
splendid for the Digestion and war
rants good sleep and clear complex
ion. A bag of hot water at ones feet
when one has cold; to the back
when it aches and to the nape of the
neck when one has a headache or
feels sleepless is one oe the best
remedies.
When the eyes become inflamed a
douche of hot water gives them
strength and restfulness, and when
the feet are tired a good soaking in
hot water is one of the best of rene
dies. Steam the face with it once a
week for the complexion, bathe the
cheeks in it when a color Is wanted.
Cold sores, fever blisters and pim-
pies bathed in very hot water drys
them up in short ordep and 1t but
not least the hot water bag is indis-
pensable to the household pains and
aches which visit every human be-
ing, and the hat water bag is a cure
for all.

Slippery Seats and Love.

"Have YOU ever noticed how Slip
perry those cane covered seats in
some of the trolley cars are?" asked
a friend of mine today. "The carpet
covered seats and the wooden ones
are all right, but those can-covered
affairs certainly keep you guessing.
The minute you sit down you put out
your hand, almost instinctively, to
keep from slipping off. If you are
sitting next to pretty girl you will
surely drift toward her, and she, poor
thing, cannot avoid you. / was going
up to Troy last night and a young
couple got on the car near the Union
Station. Of course they wanted to
sit as close to each other as possible,
but they had a great deal of trouble
in doing so. He kept slipping toward
the motorman and she kept sliding
toward the conductor. Every few
minutes he would move forward" to
regain his seat by her side. She
blushed every time he attempted to
drift back to her and the passengers
had a great deal of amusement at
their expense. They had taken their
seat near the center of the car when
they go on, but by the time we got to
Watervliet they were both down in
the corner near the conductor.

CLEANING FURNITURE.

The sweeping and busting which
take place at this time of the year are
of most particular kind. Moisten
a cloth and fasten it around the
broom just over the broom part. This
will keep the dust from rising and
make the work easier Sweep al
ways with long, firm strokes, away
and to the front of the sweeper. Al
ways sweep away from and dust tow
ard the worker. The dust clothes
should be of soft old silk, and nearly
every housekeeper has on hand old
umbrella cases, gowns, petticoats.
waists, etc., to furnish silk busters;
failing those of silk, cheesecloth is
the next best but do not use q cloth
dampened with water. For vanished
furniture, dampen the cloth with kero-
sene, but for genuine polished sur
faces a different treatment is requir-
ed, writes Mary Taylor-Ross in the
Housekeeper.

CHEESECLOTH THE HOUSE
WIFES HELP.

A careful housewife can attain won
ders with a bolt of cheesecloth. She
can transform summer ugliness in a
home to dream of color beauty. For
instance, the woman who has to stay
in town the greater part of the sum-
mer and does not wish her house 70
become prey to dust and flies, will
wrap up her pictures and bric-a-brac
with newspapers, or at best with
dingy old covers; anything for pro-
lection. Now, with a very small
amount II trouble and expense,
cheesecloth wrappings will answer
the same purpose. and yet add beauty
to the rooms instead of ugliness.
Small china and glass ornaments
strewn around the drawing room or
sitting room may be put away in
some convenient closet while the
larger pieces and the picture may be
entirely covered with cheesecloth, the
softness of which makes it easy to
handle, and yet II will give ample
protection against dirt and flies.
l remember seeing last summer a
perfectly charming room that friend
of mine had converted from rather
stiff parlor Mating took the place
of heavy rugs, and pretty white art
ticking, with pink rose design, COW
cred the furniture. Every picture,
mirror, and large ornament either of
china or bronze, was entirely wrapped
in pale pink cheesecloth. Curtains

windows, and were tied back with
pink ribbons. The effect was simply
delightful The same woman had
made fler dining room equally at
tractive to using yellow cheesecloth
in it, and one of the upstairs rooms
was covered with sky-blue.
The whole color scheme was car
ried out in it's coverings, and these in

Her house was in This way well taken
care of. but instead of being made
ugly, was quite "a thing of beauty"
and she laughingly said it would be
"a joy forever" as next year it would
be the same old story; the cheese
cloth would wash, and even if it fad
ed a little, would still retain its deli
cate color-at all events, it was vast
improvement upon newspapers and
similar wrappings.-Amy Darcy Wet

Cupid Defeated.

A half-repentant bachelor, with quite a
pile of rocks,
Dropped in, one day, beside the way,
and bought pair of socks.
Arrived at home-romantic joy!-he
wondringly drew out
A note deep hidden in the hose-from
some fair hand, no doubt!

With you I'd like to correspondent you

My object matrimony is, and yours, !

then she wrote her name.
On fire with hope, the bachelor that very
evening wrote,
And folded his epistle with a kiss inside
the note.

clever catch,

Left a Letter on the Desk

Our little youngster, six years old,
has just reached the 'learning-to-
write" stage in school. Sometimes
his teacher has the children copy
moral precepts from the blackboard
into their copy books. Among these
was the statement: Kind words are
never lost" In Freddy's book, how
ever, written clear across the paper to
the other margin, this appeared: kind
words are never los" When he was
asked: Where is the T, Freddy?" he
replied: "Oh, there was no room on
the paper for the 7, so left it on the
desk. You can see it there If you go
to the school"
The same youngster has a sister
who was married recently. Being on
a visit to her parents, and happening
to catch Freddy in some mischief, his
sister reproved him. "Umphr' shifted
Freddy, you needn't scold me! You
don't belong in my family, anyway"

Blind TO Chances.

1t is a dangerous thing to wait for
opportunities until it becomes a
habit. Eenergy and inclination for
hard work ooze out in the waiting.
Opportunity becomes invisible to
those who are doing nothing, or look
ing somewhere else for it. 1t is the
great worker, the man who is alert
for chances that sees them.
Some people become so opportunity.
blind that they cannot see chances
anywhere-they would pass th~,ugh a
gold mine without noticing anything
precious-while others will find OPP
portunities in. the most barren and
out of the way places. Bunyan found
opportunity in Bedford Jail to write
the greatest allegory in the world on
the UNFINISHED paper that had been
used to cork his bottles of milk. A
Theodore Parker or Lucy Stone sees
an opportunity to go to college in q
chance to pick berries. One boy sees
an opening to his ambition in a
chance to chop wood, wait on table,
or run errands, where another sees no
chance at ALL One sees an opportun-
ity to get an education in the odds
and ends of time, evenings and half
holidays, which another throws away.

INDIGESTION IN SWINE.

One of the symptoms OF indiges-
ton in swine is their great desire to
eat dirt, particularly if it be found
in rather dry Jumps. The way the
average hog is fed is enough TO make
it a chronic dyspeptic, and there is
little use in giving medicine TO hog
that is suffering from Indigestion. Be-
gin at the root of the trouble and
furnish variety in the food. See that
there is some green matter in the
shape of vegetables fed daily; in the
season when it can be reached give
the swine some old sod to gnaw at.
Put considerable salt in the food; the
eating of the dry dirt is an indication
of the craving for salt. Try some
dried blood meal in the slop and also
mix lime water with the slop from
time to time. A fair amount of va
riety, coupled with considerable
green food, will do more to keep the
digestive organs in good condition
than anything else.-Indianapolis

DRAINING THE WET SPOTS

The business man is constantly 60
ing through his factory or store look
ing for places where there is a leak
or where he can utilize space or ma
terial to better advantage than BE-
fore. 1t seems almost impossible to
induce farmers to work along similar
lines, yet there are hundreds of
just this attention. We are all ia
miliar with the man who will scat
ter his operations over many acres
far from mis- home and barns when
right close by there may be a few
acres which would yield him enor-
nous returns if properly prepared.
The low spots which might be made
exceedingly fertile are most often
neglected. Frequently a few burrows
struck just right will provide all the
drainage necessary to make place
for celery which would bring in large
returns. Instead of retaining this
valuable strip of ground the average
farmer with many acres either pays
on it to wallow. Possibly such strip
of ground has remained uncultivated
for years, and is practically virgin
soil, needing only a little time and
expense to make it very valuable. A
good time now to plan out what to
do with such places in early spring.

RECIPES.

Sunfower Pudding-Whip pint OF
cream with a half-cupful of powder
ed sugar and stir in two tablespoons
fuls of dissolved gelatine and the
whites Of two eggs previously beaten;
then turn into glass dish, set away
to harden slightly; whip the yolks OF
the eggs with a little sugar, flavor
with rose of almond and drop in
lspoonfuls over the gelatine mixture.
Set again to harden and chill; then
serve.
Candied Brazil Nuts-Put a cupful
of water in a saucepan over the fire,
add three cupfuls Of CIRCULATED SUI
gar, and let it boil gently till it hard
ems when a little is dropped in cold
water; flavor with extract of lemon.
Take a nut meat in pair of sugar
tons or pair of confectioners' tongs.
Set the saucepan where the syrup will
keep hot, but not boil; dip the nut
meat into the syrup. Wave 1t gently
back and forth till cool, then lay it on
buttered paper. Continue this pro-
cess till all the nut meats are cardied.
1t is a slow process. as only one can
be dipped at a time, and often each
meat has to be dipped the second
time. All sorts of nuts may be can
died in this way, bat Brazil nuts and
English walnuts are best. This is
nice work to teach the children to do.

would select high grade Short
horn or Hereford calf, bred from a
registered bull of the beef type. Feed
the COW corn and cob meal with bran
mixed, and little oil meal, with all
the clover hay the cow wants. The
cow should be MIXED while the calf
is young, as she will give more milk
than the calf will take at first. AS
soon as the calf viii take all the milk,
let it have it. Continue to feed the
COW all she will eat clean. The calf
will soon learn to eat. 1t should be
fed some grain Just as soon as 1t can
be encouraged to eat. A mixture con-
sisting of one-half whole oats, one
,lusrter bran, and one-ouarter shelled
com is very satisfactory for young
calf receiving milk. The whole grain
is always fresh, while the ground
grain is sometimes tainted and musty.
Grain Feeding before weaving not

Father and Son.

The most remarkable case 1 ever
noted Of individual friendlineSs be-
tween Northern and Southern soldiers
occurred at camp on the Rapidan.
Vtdettes of the opposing armies were
stationed on either bank Of the mar
row stream. Just after dark one night
the silence was broken by the shout:
Hello, Johnny Reb," from Union
man. He was answered in a moment
by his opposite sentry with Hello,
Johnny Yank." Then this colloquy &C.

Who are your Taylor, Of Company
E, Fifth louisiana" What Is your
first nameY Charles e. What is
yoursT' Charles E., too" The pecu-
liar coincidence attracted attention
from all Of the two armies within
hearing, and they listened to the
story yelled across the river from
one army to another on the eve of
battle. 1t developed that they were
father and son. The former had OPP
posed his sons marriage to factory
girl and the son had married just the
same He and his bride had taken
the money the wealthy farmer had
allotted to him, and suddenly disap-
peared. Then the father relented, and
continued an unavailing search until
the war had called him. The son had
gone to New Orleans, it transpired,
and there had gone into business AMI
grown wealthy. he had been imbued
with the Southern spirit by his sur
roundings and had taken up South
ern arms. Next day two boats, I'M

and two armies witnessed the reun-
ion. The following morning Charles
e. Taylor, Jr., was missing from the

til after Appomattox, when he walk

over, taken the oath, and gone to
