Loss Of Appetite

Is commonly gradual; one dish after
another is set aside till few remain.
These are not eaten with much relish,
and are often so light as not to afford
much nourishment.
Loss Of appetite is one Of the first
indications that the system is running
down. and there is nothing else so
good for it as Hoods Sarsaparilla-
the best Of all tonics.
Accept no substitute for Hoods.

Cucumber Pickle.

A very simple rule for cucumber
pickles, which is well worth trying, as
1t entails very little trouble, Is to
pare and slice two dozen cucumbers
and one dozen small onions. Sprinkle
them with salt, and allow them to
drain well in colander. Then place
them in a bowl, adding one quart Of
vinegar. one cup of olive oil, one
quarter of a cup each of black and
white mustard seed, one teaspoonful
of celery seed, and one-quarter tea
spoonful of powdered alum. Mix
thoroughly and seal in pint cans. 3

FOR THE WINDOWS
THEIR TREATMENT AND CARE
IN WINTER.
After Being Properly Cleaned,
Preparation Can Be Applied That
Will Keep Them Free from
Frost and Steam.

Before cleaning windows, remove
all the dust. If the paint requires
cleaning do this first, taking care
not to scrub, as this removes beth
paint and dirt.
Vanished wood should be rubbed
with a piece of chamois leather wrung
out OF cold water. and then polished
with soft duster.
For cleaning windows some people
use ammonia in the proportion of one
tablespoonful to a gallon Of water, but
the work can be performed quite as
efficiently and much more quickly by
using clean water and two good
chamois feathers, one for washing the
glass and the other for polishing 1t.
See that the wash feathers are quite
clean, and do not make the glass so
wet that the water drips from it.
Have plenty Of clean water and
change 1t frequently. Dip the chamois
In this and rub the panes. taking care
that the corners are not forgotten,
Wiring the cloth tightly and go over
the surface of the glass a second time.
Polish with the other wash leather.
Linen or cotton cloths should not be
used, as they frequently leave pieces
of down on the glass, especially II
used when the latter is not dry.
A window cannot be properly
cleaned when the sun is shining on It
During frost the least touch Of the
hand is liable to crack the glass.
To keep the windows free from frost
apply little glycerine on dry dus.
ter, and brilliant polish will be the
result. This is also excellent for pre-
venting windows from steaming II
rubbed on inside Of the glass after the
windows are cleaned.
II little kerosene oil is added to
the water used for cleaning purposes
II will prevent flies from settling on
the window, and has the additional
merit of giving clear and brilliant
polish.
The brightness of the window panes
gives an air OF cheerfulness to
house; II these are smeary and dirty
one often finds that the housewife is
careless and neglectful in other de-
tails Of household management.
In order that an Objectionable view
may be shut'out, dissolve some epson
salts In hot water and make 1t as
strong as possible. Then wash it over
the glass while hot with a brush. 1t
will soon cool and deposit the salts IN
a crystalline form on the window, add
when the water has evaporated the
panes will be found beautifully
frosted.
The windows must be quite covered
with the liquid and care must be
taken that it does not run or the pat.
tern will be spoiled.
