SAVED BABY LYONS LIFE.
Awful Sight from That Dreadful Com.
plant, lnfantle decentralization
Praises Cuticura Remedies.

''Our baby had that dreadful com.
plant, infantile Eczema, which afflict-
ed him for several months, commenc-
ing at the top of his head, and at last
covering his whole body. His suffer
ings were untold and constant misery,
in fact, there was nothing we would
not have done to have given him re-
lief. We finally procured full set of
the Cuticura Remedies, and in about
three or four days he began to show
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in year. In about
ninety days he was fully recovered.
Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has
always been our greatest pleasure,
and there is nothing too good that we
could say in their favor, for they GER
tainly saved our baby's life, for he
was the most awful sight that 1 ever
beheld, prior to the treatment of the
Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle

The Caravan Cure.

One of the many "cures" favored by
fashionable people weary of London,
is the caravan cure" This simple
and enjoyable method of renewing
ones strength consists in travelling
about Britain in cart, such as the
Gypsies have, and camping out at
night wherever a haven can be found
Lord and Lady Arthur Grosvenor
have spent the summer journeying in
this fashion through EXmoor, wild
and mountainous country, made
famous by the great romance, Lorna
Doone One night they encamped on
the farm of John Ridd, of the novel.
The difficulties in hill climbing have
been enormous, but the pleasure of
the trip has made it worth while.

CARE OF BLANKETS.
SPECIAL TREATMENT NECES-
SARY FOR BEST RESULTS.
Done in the Right Way, No House
keeper Need Dread the APP
proach of the Regular Day
for Washing.

AS the immortal stump orator re-
marked, eve have blankets in our
cwadles, blankets in our twibs, blan-
kets in our four-posters," and having
blankets so prevalent" it behooves
us to keep them clean.
Now, many otherwise excellent
housekeepers dread the annual blan-
ket washing simply because they I'M
derstand little or nothing of the art
of blanket securing, as the Scotch
call it.
They usually resort to one or the
other of the two very bad methods
and either send the blankets to pub
lie laundry, where they may be made
white and clean, but VIII certainly
shrink or they have a washerwoman
in, who upsets the whole household,
washes the poor blankets very badly,
and leaves them hard to touch, very
grimy to behold and some sizes small
er than they ought to be.
Require Individual Care.
Now, if one lives in the country,
where a garden or field, or good dry
ing ground is close by an excellently
appointed laundry, big annual orgie
of blanket washing may be advan-
tageous, though Il haze me doots"
about that.
To the ordinary housewife who has
neither the space nor the appliances
nor the necessary number of servants,
it is far wiser plan to send one blan-
ket to the wash every week, or two
if the washing is a light one, and it
is always necessary only to wash one
at a time, otherwise blankets shrink.
They cannot be treated en- masse
as linen or cotton things are, but
must be done speedily and thorough
ly, and dried on fine hot day, out of
doors, but not in the hot sun,
Right Kind of Lather
A warm soap lather must be pre-
pared from soap jelly made the day
before, and a little ammonia, either
lump or liquid, must be added to this,
and the blanket allowed to soak for
about a quarter of an hour to extract
the grease. Then it must be kneaded
and squeezed until the dirt is all loos-
ened, and, if necessary, put through
two, and even three, fresh fathers.
The next process is rinsilg, which
must be done in warm water, and if
no soft water has been obtainable, a
little ammonia to each rinsing water
is great advantage.
When rinsing is over it is impor-
tant that folding should be even and
exact, and then the wringing through
a machine will act as mangling also.
Shaking we'll after rinsing and then
pegging carefully to clothes lines in
the open air, and shaking occasionally
by two persons while drying, are the
final stretch between two persons
after they are quite dry, in order to
keep them to their proper size.

Artificial SILK the Latest.

In Gothenburg, Sweden, or at come
place in it's neighborhood, will soon
be built large factory for the man
ufacture of artificial silk for export.
A company has receitly been organic
ed there with capital not to be less
than $160,S00 and not to exceed $751;
400, with the purpose of building a
factory and exploiting an invention
made by Engineer r. W. Strehlenert,
of Djursholm, Sweden, for the manu-
facture of vegetable silk Excluding
experiments, this industry is new in
Sweden, and it is claimed that the silk
manufactured from nitro-cellulose by
Mr.. Strehlenert's method has just as
fine an appearance and is just as
strong or durable as natural silk, or
even stronger. 1t is further stated
that the silk has been tested or tried
in Swedish or German cloth factories
and that very favorable reports have
been received about it.-Consular Re

John Stuart Mill.

James Mill, his father, was a hard
man, a clever man, and a crank-a
hedonist capable of making himself
thoroughly disagreeable about the
greatest happiness of the greatest
number; q theorist who regarded his
clever son as a suitable object for ed
ucational experiments.
He would not send him to school
because schools were the fortresses
of prejudice" and taught the wrong
things in the wrong way. He pro-
vided him with no playmates, and al
lowed him no holidays, lest ''the habit
of work should be broken. Francis
Gribble, in Fortnightly Review.
