upon the solicitation of his friends

ciples of Democracy. He was heart.
lily applauded on taking his seat.

Ironized Table Water.

There is no drug that has been SO
wrongly used and unJustly condemned
as iron. Ii has been taken in huge
doses and has then been rejected as
causing headache or other trouble The
truth II that iron does most ser sice as
tonic when the dose is very small
and 1t is taken over an extended pc
riod. The following is an excellent
way of making an ironized table wa
ter: Place a teaspOonful of dilute per-
chloride OF iron In an eight ounce bot
tie, fill up with water and shake Add
a teaspoonful of this TO sufficient wa
ter to make one pint This may be

R,,x 20 Water Plant.

A florist says that the best way to
water plants is TO immense the pot IN
water. letting 1t rise an inch or two
above the top OF the pot When the
bubbles cease to rise 1t is u sign that
not dry spot is left In the earth. The
fault with the ordinary method of wa
tering is said TO be that The water does
not thoroughly penetrate The earth, the
roots remaining dry. while the top Is
moist. The plants should be watered
only when they seem dry.

NzRAerx Furniture.

Nursery furniture should be small.
but it should be light In weight also.
The little bent wood chairs are very
good They can be lifted and carried
about By very small people. and they
have no angles to bark shins on un-
awares. Do not oyerdo the nursery
idea. Let the decorations stop with the
walls. Children tire OF Mother Goose
rugs, furniture and china. Fresh white
curtains that wash are better than pic
tlre muslin.

H..~ q. Prevens Tartar ON Teeth,

Tartar is more easily prevented than
removed, says the Boston Traveller.
Prevention may be comprised by any
ordinary tooth powder and a brush.
Removal necessitates either the dem
lists scaling instruments or the use Of
acids. The danger with acids is their
power OF destroying the enamel OF the
teeth and SO opening the way for de-
cay. Still. the following plan, IL care
fully carried out. will not involve much
risk: Add fifteen drops OF dilute hydro
chloride acid to two teaspoonfuls of
water. Make small roll of a frag-
ment Of unbleached calico. Dip In the
liquid and rub briskly over the teeth.
Then apply soft brush dipped in wa
ter and covered with camphorated
chalk. Finally rinse the mouth with
water,

washing Water.

Labor and soap may both be saved
in the laundry by the use of soft water,
and even the hardest of water may be
easily softened without the addition of
chemicals. Three or four days before
it is to be used draw sufficient water
for the washing and expose it in tubs,
etc, to the action of the sun and air.
The trouble IL only that of little fore
thought and is well repaid

To Amply Lotions,

One very good way to apply lotion
to the face. when time is not taken
into account, is TO pour as much as is
needed into saucer and use sterilized
absorbent cotton or gauze. which can
be purchased for tritiing sum of the
chemists. Make some little balls or
pads or the cotton and keep them ia a
clean, wide mouthed jar with ii screw
top and use as needed Dip them into
the lotion and gently wash 1t over the
face, using fresh ones from tine to
time during the process.
