BUSTING A ROOM.
Use Method and You Will Greatly
Tighten YOar Labor.

Method should be used in busting a
room, and before starting the daily or
weekly busting all the brushes and
cloths should be in readiness. First
the largest pieces of furniture should
have the dust wiped off carefully, and
for the soft carved parts a soft hair
brush should be used. Then all the
lodges and rims of the chairs should
be busted, beginning at the top and
working downward. Pull a corner of
the buster through any small spaces
A feather brush is desirable for the
tops of pictures, also for the tops and
backs Of books, and the glass of pic
lures may be rubbed with
tissue paper or a soft old duster. An
old silk handkerchief is convenient for
busting the ornaments from the man
telpiece, which should be placed tenn
porarily on the table to admit of the
thorough busting of the overmantel
and mantelpiece, after which the orna-
ments are replaced. Lastly wipe the
wooden mopboard with a damp rubber
and then with a dry buster. The care
full housewife does not neglect to dust
the legs of tables, all lodges, windows,
chandeliers and globes, skirting boards,
the whole of the door when open and
shut and the CRATE.

Louis threw himself fiat Oh the couch
in their stateroom and said boyishly:
Gee. We're off at last. Now let her
whiz. This old train can't go fast
enough for me-"
Looking down at him at that mo-

emotion almost maternal. How thin
he is" she thought, as her eyes took i'll
his slight body. "Ill go. I'll do any
thing for him, if only he can grow
strong and we'll"
She loved that slender lad and as
sumed for him a greater weight of care
and hope and fear than for any other
human being. He was so like - ia
ther-the soul restless as flame, the
slender body racked, worn with end
less enthusiasms, the burning, mes
merle eyes and the delicate mouth. All
these she had known and valued in
her father, and when the doctor seri-
ously advised the Rocky mountains she
readily gave up her own plans, and
here and now she sat, rushing toward
the west to a town repulsive to her, a
place of emptiness and WEAKNESS, a So
cial desert, where no n lived but her
cousins, the Barnetts, to whose hos
pitable door they were bound as voy-
ayers on a wide sea to a snug harbor.
Without hat home as a point of ar

such uncertainty of mind as besets a
sailor on a chartless sea.
She was making this abhorrent trip
in order that her brother might thrive

Journal" This journal, the record Of a
trip into the west made by Philip Ru-
pert before his marriage, had come to
be the most powerful influence in the
lads life. 1t was a worn little red
book in which the father had written
the daily happenings and impressions
of his trip, and its discovery by Louis
in a bcx of old papers had quite trans
formed his life. 1t had made him an
American, filing him with a longing
for the "Hesperian mountains" as
the father called the romantic land he
had seen but once, but whose splendor
lived with him throughout the remain
der OF his short life.

car Ann again listened indulgently to

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inAamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube is inflam-
ed you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely clos
ed, Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrhl
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

A Chance OF Occupation.

"Jacob Riis, the sociologist," said
a lawyer of New York, "has a soft
heart. His sympathy flows out in
every direction. The poor have in
him a true friend.
'AIr. Riis sat in my anteroom one
morning waiting to consult me.
Near him a young girl clicked bpsily
away on a typewriter. She was pref
ty and neat, with clear eyes and soft
hair, but perhaps she was little
pale.
GAS Mr.. RHs regarded her, so
young and fresh, working hard in
stuffy office while her more fortu-
nate sisters were riding or motoring
in the park, he felt sorry for her,
and he said gently:

"'Ah, yes, we do indeed said the
young girl.

Buying Weapons In Russia.

In Russia before weapon of any
kind is purchased a permit must be
secured from the local authorities.
The name of the purchaser, with the
number of the weapon, must be re-
corded by the storekeeper in ledger
kept expressly for the purpose. If
the buyer ever wants to dispose Of
his weapon he must again notify tho
authorities and cause the transfer to
be recorded on the books of the firm
that originally sold it.

Plants and the Moon.

Camille Fiammarion has been
making experiments in Paris to see
whether the moon exerts any infu-
ence upon the growth of plants, ac-
cording to the legend. He made
different sets of paintings at dates
which corresponded to the different
phases of the moon, using peas,
beets, carrots, potatoes, beans and
many other vegetables of the ordi-
nary kinds. The results were ex-
tremely variable, and no fixed rule
seemed to govern them. The plants
appeared at periods which had nO
connection with the moons phases.
