How to Keep Them Hygienically
Clean and Attractive.
Many women have the mistaken idea
keep clean, and they sweep and scour
and sew carpet all their lives with a
notion that by SO doing they are saw
ing themselves work. But if they knew
how to stain floors in the first place
and to take. care of them in the second
they could save themselves work every
day of their lives, lessen the burden
of house cleaning about one-half and
have their homes infinitely more whole
some and hygienically clean.
Nothing is so productive Of moths
and germs as carpets. fitting up close
and snug to the side walls. and a thor
ough cleansing once year rarely
cleans them out, says the New York
Tribune. A year will furnish a gen.
Grafton Of germs. and effectual germ
destroyers sometimes destroy the car
pet along with it's inhabitants.
Rugs. Of course. can be cleaned once
week easily. and during the week
any single rug that has wantonly ac-
Quired soil can be brushed or shaken
by itself without disturbing the rest
of the room for second. Lightweight
rugs Of ingram filing a housekeeper
can shake herself and have her rooms
freshly clean without help or assist
ance.
Almost any floor, even the old fash
Toned wide plank floor. can be made to
look effective If properly stained. In
the first place. scrub it thoroughly with
hot bOrax suds: then. when perfectly
dry. cover it with the following prepa-
ration: Four ounces of gum shellac.
one ounce of gum mastic and one ounce
Of gum benzoin. Dissolve well before
stain If you want the floor dark.
When it is necessary to wash the
floor do not use soap; just wipe it up
with mop dipped in warm borax wa
ter, a teaspoonful of borax to a gallon
of water. and after it is dry oil it with
crude oil and kerosene. Cleaning in
this way leaves floor looking as
though it had just been stained. It
will not be necessary actually to wash
floor thoroughly more than once a
month. 1t should be oiled. though.
once a week. Other mornings, if it is
dusty. go over it hastily with dry
mop.
Always clean hardwood floors with
mop. 1t is absurd waste Of time and
strength to clean floors on ones knees,
and there are few household tasks SO
exhausting. undignified and unneces-
sary. The floor can be easily oiled
with mop or broom covered with a
stretch of canton flannel pinned on Sc
cul'ely. 1t is quick work done in this
way and no strain on the knees or

How to Polish Horns.

First scrape the horns with glass to
take off any roughness; then procure
some finely powdered pumice stone.
dip a damp cloth into it and with this
rub the horns till a smooth surface is
obtained. Afterward polish with lin
seed oil and rotten stone, and the more
the horn is rubbed with this the better
will be the polish. Finish rubbing
with dry -four and a clean piece Of rag.

 Ut seemed as if would never be able to find out the sort of food that was best for me. Hardly anything that could eat would stay on my stomach. Every attempt gave me heartburn and filled my stomach with gas. I got thinner and thinner until literally be- came a, living skeleton and in time was compelled to keep to my bed.

This play possesses in marked degree all the essential characteristics of a dramatic success, and the production has met with a great deal of favorable comment wherever presented. It is an uncom- monly clever combination of realism and romance, and aside from it's scenic and mechanical effects it is a play richly worth seeing. The play is full of sensational dramatic situations, with enough humorous by-plays to relieve the tension and grows in interest from start to finish.
