Drink Liberally of Water

That is late bit of health advice
Drink glass of water when you get
out of bed in the morning. Never
mind the size of the glass. Let the
water be cold if you will. Some peo-
pie prescribe hot water, but that ism t
necessary. You may have washed
your face al. e .dy and relished the ex-
perience. You may have taken cold
plunge into the tub and delighted in
the shock and its reaction. The brisk
use of the tooth brush has left your
mouth clean and the breath sweet.
But you are dirty still.
Drink a glass of cold water and en-.
JOY the sensation of being clean inside.
All that is luxurious in the cold bath
cleansing the outside is artificial.
That which should prompt the glass of
water after sleeping is natural.
Drink glass of water in the name
of cleanliness. 1t becomes one of the
shortest and easiest of toilet duties.
1t is swallowed in a second, and in
five minutes it has passed from the
stomach, taking with it the clogging
secretions of the alimenary tracts. 1t
has left behind the stimulus that goes
with cold water, and, by filling the
arterial system to the normal, it puts
a spur to the circulation that has
grown sluggish in the night.

A house that is owned by the occu-

something about it that feels differ

The Kitchen Sink.

The ideal sink is of porcelain with
rolled edge. round corners, porcelain
back and open plumbing without a
crack or crevice for dirt or the ever
ready water bug. He is ready still,
but he must live in the open and not
lie concealed. A white enamel sink
is almost as good as the porcelain and
much less expensive. Soapstone and
slate are very good. and so, too, is the
copper-lined sink. The great danger
il the porcelain and enameled sinks
is the breaking of delicate china and
glass. The copper lining is much the
best for that. The wooden drain
boards tipping slightly toward the
sink are a great convenience. Ere
quently rubber mats with roughened
surface are placed in these to keep the
dishes from slipping. There are, be-
sides. wire and nickel-plated dish
drainers, which will keep the plates
separated one from another while
draining.-Harper's Bazaar.

Educational Value of A Doll.

Sir Lauder B%runton's delightful dis.
sertation on dolls at the meeting of
the British association should be read,
marked, learned and put into practice
by all mothers. Every little girl, said
Sir Lauder Brunton, should not only
possess a doll, but should be taught
how to wash it, make cloths for it,
how to exercise 1t, and prepare food
for 1t. Dolly should be a real being 10
its little owner, and to this end should
be a washable, u~nbreakable and NOV
able piece of mechanism, with hair
that will comb and limbs that will not
come off. Nowadays one so frequent.

wee grille should be taught to love
her dolly and care for it. In this way
maternal love is fostered. and, what
is more, every girl would grow up
with as perfect a knowledge of the
management of children as she has in
the ordinary way of drawing, music or
Deedlework.

GOOD MANNERS AT TABLE.
One Of the Earliest Things Child
Should Be Taught.

While the minor details OF table
manners vary with the years on broad
er lines, they still remain the same
consideration for others, the suppress.
sion of animal-like characteristics,
such a gulttony and gr%eediness, and
the cultivation Of those finer instincts
that makes the breaking of bread to
gether a beautiful family ordinance,
not a wild scramble of pigs at a
trough-an eating to live, not a living
to eat.
Good manners should be ingrained
not superficial. and put on for com.
pany. To make them natural, train.
ing should be begun as soon as q
child is able to sit at the table. II a
little one is early taught by example
and precept all those little details that
mark a person of gentle breeding, he
will always appear to advantage and
that without self-consciousness.
Il always like to take a meal with
a man before engaging him for my
school," said a prominent educator.

may have as a scholar, if his manners

Boorishness must not be confused

one but the manufacturer can keep

ference between an olive fork and a
butter pick; a bouillon cup and a tea
cup, a sherbet glass and one for a
cocktail. He shows a distinct lacking
in manners, however, when he stabs
the bread with a fork, gobbles his
food, masticates audibly and with

jy in the great dairy district of the
Mohawk valley, in New York, the
western reserve of Ohio, and the Elgln
district OF northern Illinois and south

Ing as common as barns.
In 1888 the United States depart
ment OF agriculture could find only 81
farmers IN this whole country who
nsed silos. The feeding OF silage is
now considered a necessity on thou
sands of dairy farms in the United
States and 1t is a noticeable fact that
abe states and localities ranking first

which the most silos are found. 1t is
likely that If a census were taken Of
the number of silos In use in this
country today. we would find between
400. 900 and soc, 900.
The SLIDING Of feed compares favor
ably with the canning of fruits and
vegetables. There are various feeds

initely determined that Indian corn is
best adapEed for this purpose. How

time with great success. A mixture Of
alfalfa and corn, or soy-beans and corn.
Is preferable to either Of these sliced
alone. On account OF the balanced
nutriments which these feeds contain.

ticles OF furniture are absolutely nee
essary for a small family. 1t is a
great mistake to furnish up a house

in the purchase. One good solid ar

isfactory in 20 years as It is when new
is worth a dozen himsy faddy things
gotten up Tor show, but If you have a
few pieces of cheap furniture il is not
necessary to dispense with them.
There are ways to use cheap things
if they are strong and rightly proper
toned. / have seen a $3.50 rocker
fitted with a homemade cushion on
the seat and another on the back that
felt more comfortable and looked
more attractive than some $50 chairs
of my acquaintance. II is not a ques
ton OF money in furnishing a house
so much as it is in the good taste dis
played in the selection and care after
wards. The homemade cushions in
the cheap rocker looked we'll because
they were clean and neatly kept. II
allowed to get soilcd or some of the
fas tlers become loose and neglected
the chair Immediately looses its
charm, and so it is with everything in
the house.
Pictures have a great deal to do
with the furnishing. Small pictures
look best when grouped and hung fiat
against the wall. The old-fashioned
way Of s%tringing pictures from the
middle and hanging them at an angle
has gone out Of date, Some one dis
covered a few years ago that pictures
were much improved in general ap.
pearance when those of a kind were
grouped together. Pictures cannot be
successfully grouped unless they are
standing upright. We cannot harmon
ize angles, they won't have anything
TO do with each other, but we can
take a group of a dozen interesting
photographs, put them in narrow dark
colored frames and make a group OF
them on one side of the room and II
skillfully done the effect will be very
artistic. The expense of such a group
is not necessarily very great and the
satisfaction is considerable. II is
necessary TO use some ingenuity in
fastening the pictures to make them
look right, and for security. The old
style Of %suspending pictures by wires
never satisfied anyone. Wire was a
necessity and was used under protest.
1t is employed now more than any
other means for hanging pictures. I
have seen large frames of narrow
mOlding made i'm which the smaller
picture frames slide. Space Gould be
left any width between the smaller
frames or extra pieces of molding ft.
ted to slide in the grooves for division
panels between the frames.

StutterinQ.

OF the etiology of suffering we
know nothing definite. Direct inherit
ance is rare, and possibly imitation is
the chief factor when father and son
are affected. There is usually a we'll
marked neurotic inheritance others in
the family having various forms OF
nervous complaints. But | have not
been able to confirm Charcot's state
ment that suffering and ordinary ia
cial paralysis frequently occur in the
same family. Shocks, frights and de-
bility after some acute illness are the
causes TO which the onset is most
frequently attributed by parents. I'M
itation Is undoubtedly an occasional
cause, children having often been
known to start the habit when put in
charge of a suffering nursemaid. A
friend OF mine, who was extremely
fond OF horses and was hardly to be
kept out OF the stables, acquired a
most obstinate stutter from the groom.
AdenOid negotiations are often met
with and are important as a predispos-
ing cause, since they tend to prevent
the proper filling of the chest with
air. When present they should be re-
moved as a preliminary measure, al.
though it must not be expected that
their removal will lead TO a prompt
cessation of the stutter.-Lancet.
