VHINTS FOR THE
( HOUSEkEEPER
NO

Celery sandwich filing blends
mayonnaise and finely minced, ten
der celery.
Beef or mutton reheated in a dou-
bic boiler is a vast improvement over
the ordinary stew.
For the removal of grease spots
from wooden dresses salt dissolved in
alcohol is recommended.
Stoves may look nice for some time
by rubbing them thoroughly with a
newspaper every morning.
II silt frames, when new, are COW
cred with a coat of white varnish, all
specks can then be washed off with
water without harm.
To approve the flavor of roast beef
and give a rich brown color add a
tablespoonful of sugar to the water
for basting the meat.
A piece of coarse net sewed over
"a extra large hole in a stocking will
make it easier to darn, and will make
the darn more lasting.
Thin cucumber slices with a lettuce
leaf and mayonnaise make a sand
wien filling that men who scorn sand
wiches the most can seldom resist.
A popular sandwich combines
olives and cream cheese. Spread one
buttered slice with the former, and
the other with the latter, and press
them together.
II a bedstead creaks at each move
ment of the sleeper, remove the Stats
and wrap the ends of each in old
newspapers. This will prove a COM
plcte silencer.
A small paint brush with long,
strong, supple bristles is the best
thing with which to keep cut glass
clean. 1t is the only means of reach
ing the dust which lodges in the
snell carvings.
CoppeTware may be frightened by
rubbing with a piece of flannel that
has been wrung out of hot water,
well soaked and busted with borax.
Hiasing and a polish should follow
the rubbing.
If you wish to use quinine as a hair
grove: put it up in this form: One
dam Of bisulphate of quinine, one
half ounce Of tincture of cantharides,
seven ounces Of listerine. Apply to
the scalp twice a day.
Olives and Spanish red peppers
(t1e. pinlolas that are to be had in
cans or the fresh sweet red pepper)
chopped fine, moistened with mayon-
case and spread On buttered bread
make toothsome sandwiches. Olives
alone also make an excellent filing.

Peanut Waters.

For peanut jumbles or waters
grind a cupful of roasted and shelled
peanuts until fine. . Cream a rather
liberal fourth of a cup of butter, add
half a cupful of sugar, using likewise
a liberal measure of sifted flour. Mois-
ten the mixture with a scant cupful
Of milk, or enough to make a stiff
cough, about like pie crust. Flour a
board and rolling pin, then roll out
the dough until of waferlike thinness.
These jumbles should be so thin af-
ter rolling and cutting out, that one
can almost see through them. Bake
on butteTed pans in a brisk oven, TAX
ing care that they do not burn. They
should bake until a nice brown and
should when served be crisp like
snaps" They are delicious with a
cup of freshed "brewed" tea and a
slice of cream cheese.-Florida Agri.

AWAY WITH THE RUBBISH

Some peoples minds are like a sec
ond hand shop; they contain things
Of considerable value mixed with a
great deal of rubbish. There is no
system or order in them. These minds
retain everything-good, bad or indif'
ferent. They can never bear to throw
anything away, for fear it might be
of service at some time, SO that their
mental storehouses are clogged with
all sorts of rubbish.
DE- these people would only have a
regular mind cleaning o and
then, and throw away all the rub
bish, and systematic and arrange
what is left, they might amount to
something; but no one can do good
work with his mind full>of confusion,
says Home Chat.
Get rid Of the rubbish. Do not go
through life burdened with non-es-
s~ential, meaningless things. Every
where We see people who are handi-
capped because they never will let
go OF anything. They are like the
o~ver-careful housekeeper who never
throws anything away for fear it may
be of use in the future, and whose
attic and woodshed and every cup
board and corner in the house are
piled up with rubbish which might
be wanted some time" The habit
of throwing away rubbish is Of ines
Unable value.

A m,ssour, county,s Good Record.

Missouri's State Auditor, w. w.
Wilder, points with great pride to the
record of his home county, Ste.
Genevieve, which has not had one OF
her citizens as a convict in the peni-
Tertiary for a period of forty years.
Year before last the entire criminal
cost OF Ste. Genevieve county totall'
ed $3.50. Last year the criminal
cost bill of the county ran up to
something like $75. This is explained
on the ground that three tramE,
passing through the county broke into
a slaughter house near the ancient
city of Ste. G%enevieve, the Oldest set
Element in the State, and stole some
hides.-Louisiana News.

The Uses Of an Edge Bone.

Purchase an edge bone, varying
from eleven to fifteen pounds, at
from four to six cents a pound; the
larger 1t is the more steak on it.
Have the butcher break the bone
twice, but not cut the meat. Slice
off a good meal of steak, then cut a
fine pot roast from the thick part.
Next trim off all the surplus fat and
try it out for drippings. The remain
der may be cut off for a smothered
beef and use the bone for a vegetable
soup. This makes five good dinners,
with the addition of a vegetable and
a salad for five in family at a total
cost Of from fifty to eighty cents

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a change o
lew years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from q
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only a dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young appreciate
the shock to the system through tho
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

For a Cooking Novelty, Try This.


Mr.. Harden prefers a plain sweet
potato pie, which he makes after this
fashion:
Take several sweet potatoes, and,
when they have boiled themselves
tender, peel and slice them. Line the
bottom and sides of a deep dish with
crust-the dish must be fully three
inches in depth-and upon this ar
range a layer of the potatoes, butter
ing them literally, sugaring them
freely and sprinkling them with nut
meg. Add next a layer of very thin
slices of dough; sprinkle with hot
water; then follow with another lay
or OF sliced potatoes, and repeat until
the pan is full. The top crust follows
and the pie must then be baked for
an hour or more.-From"T The Apoth-
COSTS of the Pie" by Miles Bradford,

se~ven-tenths of tho prostra-
ton, nervous dependency, til e
blues, sleeplessness, and nervous
irritability of women arise from some
organic arrangement.

with restlessness alternating with ex-
treme irritability ? Do you suffer
from pains in the abdominal region,

May STOP WORK
ON The BRIDGE
RnmOred Construction Is 10
Be Abandoned Until
After Freshets

Work on the o. R. & N. bridge
across the Clearwater river b to be
stopped until after the spring freshets
are over. according to a report COM
ing from the construction department
of that road
Unusual winter freshets, and cold
winter, with drift ice, has made work
on construction impossible, and IL
seems likely that with the heavy snow
fall, that the spring freshets win bring
down very high floods and sweep out
the false work, thus further delaying
the construction.

construction will employ the best part
of three months, those In a position TO
