How to Danish Flies.

To get rid of flies allowed to slip into
a house through the carelessness of
servants despite screens on windows
and doors is one of the problems of a
housekeeper No effort should be con-
sidered too great to accomplish this
exodus. for the insects are a menace
in their possibilities of carrying poison
and disease and should be exterminat-
ed. If it is convenient to darken a
room, the work is quite simple. The
blinds or dark curtain should be drawn
until the room is gloomy except for a
little crack of light at an open win
dow. Flies will never enter a dull
room, there is no danger of more COM
ing in, and those already there will go
out through the bright crack left. This
naturally takes some hours, however.
A homemade poison. that acts like a
charm is good to use when there are
children. as it Is not hurtful to hu-
mans, and little if any harm will re-
suit If a youngster accidentally swal-
lows some This kill" is made by
boiling for three minutes a half pint of
milk, two ounces of black pepper and
four ounces of sugar This should be
cooled, poured into saucers and placed
about the room. Its strength will not
last for more than three days.

How to Clean Curtains.

Take down the curtains, shake and
brush well, getting out all the dust
from the gathers, futing. etc. Prepare
a quantity of good wheat bran, put it
into large pan and place before a
fire to dry, stirring with the hands
frequently. Afterward, if the curtains
are of silk, mix with the bran an
ounce or more of finely powdered
indigo blue. Provide several pieces of
clean flannel. Spread the curtains, a
piece at time, on the table and
sprinkle with bran, a handful at a
time. Next, with bit of flannel. rub
the bran round and round on the
material, letting it rest before brush
ing of. As you proceed take clean
bran and flannel, and the curtains will
become much frightened and i'm
proved in appearance, says Woman's
Life. II glazed chintz curtains are
often cleaned in this way they will
not require washing for long time.
They never look the same after being
washed

And Now For a sunbonnet.


The ordinary baby cap is another Of
the inconvenience Of infancy. The cap
has no projection along the front such
as win shade the eyes from the sun.
For some unknown reason many moth
ers have an idea that the baby's eyes,
like those of the eagle, are geared for
gazing directly at the sun, or at least
SO one would suppose from the manner
in which the average baby is carried.
with the sunlight beating directly in
his face. A little s,nbonnet or wide
brimmed cap would be much more
sensible as a head covering.
II girls and boys are TO have strong
eyes, the baby's eyes must be cared
for. Each year more children wear
glasses. and much Of this defective Vi
sion is due TO causes that might have
been avoided in infancy

Some Simple Remedies.


If the baby's eyes are washed out
with solution made by dissolying ten
grains of boracic acid in an ounce OF
water, either when given the daily bath
or when put to bed for the night, their
strength will be increased. II the
eyes are particularly weak, they may
be washed out both at night and when
the child Is given It's bath. Be sure
that the acid has thoroughly dissolved
and shake we'll before using, applying
it lightly to the lids with a piece of old
linen. Granulated lids are painful and
should have immediate attention.
Cleaning them with the boracic acid
solution is simple home cure. If It
fails, try the doctor. for such cendl'
tion should not be neglected. Never
let the baby lie In draft This Is
often cause of eye trouble. as well
as Of other weaknesses. If mothers
think there Is any serious defect in a
chilti's vision. they should see physi-
clan aboat IT. for many faults may be

THE cHlLDREN'S EYESIGHT. !.

An Ounce of Prevention Worth More
Than a Pound Of Cure.
Many persons eyes are badly in
jured in infancy through the ignorance
or carelessness of nurses. A child's
eyes are very delicate, yet how often
one sees a baby carriage pushed along
the street with the sun shining direct
~ IN the unfortunate occupants little
blinking eyes. Canopies are sold with
most perainbulators, but it is wonder
full what becomes of them in few
months. Nowadays the gocart, owing
to its lightness and convenience, IS
rapidly taking the place of the peram-
buiator. For long journeys 1t is just
the thing when there are children, for
1t may be folded up and placed In the
baggage car or carried by some mem-
Der of the party SO that it can be used
whenever the train stops or the tray
elers reach their destination.

4 Homemads Canopy For the Cart.

The disadvantage Of the gocart has
been that 1t affords no protection from
sun or shower, such as the canopied
perambulator offers. A canopy may
be made at home at very little ex-
pense. The framework is OF gaIyan-
lied wire. bent to ft into eyelets
screwed into the side of the gocart's
wooden handle bars. Just how the
wire is to be bent may be seen by a
glance at the sketch. II you have no
instrument for bending the wire. the
dealer from whom you buy 1t will do
this for you.- When the eyelets are
screwed into position slip the ends Of
the wire through them. Over the wire
drape a piece Of awning or tent can
vas Three-quarters of yard should
be enough material, and it may be
trimmed of at the sides so that only
about six inches OF 1t hang over.
Tapes at the corners hold it In posi-
tion II you are very careful, panels
may be cut out to button to the top
and to brass headed nails which may
be inserted In the wood. These as
well as the cover for the top, which Is
best made of a double thickness of the
material, should be bound with tape.
When the side pieces and the panel in
the back are buttoned into place the
baby will be comfortably protected
from winds and snow In the winter
and if the material Is waterproof from
showers in the summer. When the

THE PROBLEM OF SLEEP.
How to Rest Properly and Awaken
Refreshed.

How to Rest Properly and Awaken
Refreshed.
Although one-third OF ones time Is
spent in sleep. there are few, compara-
lively speaking, who know how to
sleep properly, says How to Live It
is surprising to one who has been
taught better to see how many retire
to badly ventilated, stuffy bedrooms,
with heavy draperies, which are the
joy of microbes. The sleepers, who
do not know how to sleep, put on
clothing unsnited to the function Of
the skin, curl up under eiderdoWn
quilts and smother their heads In
feather pillows. They partake Of late
suppers, of richly concocted dishes and
turn night into day. Then when they
reach a condition where sleep no
longer comes to them they complain,
as if everybody but themselves were
to blame, and take medicine to quiet
the nerves.
The bedroom should be well venti-
lated, and there should be no heavy
drapery or dust collecting ornaments.
The mattress should be hard, the linen
fresh, the pillow hard and fiat.
The covering should consist of a
wooden blanket, and one should learn
to sleep under much less covering than
is usually considered necessary The
night garment should be of loose
texture. The sleeper should lie at full
length OF the bed and on the right
side, with the head but slightly raised,
BY following these directions the sleep
will be refreshing and one win awaken
rested in mind and body
Lack Of proper sleep is shown In
careworn faces, tired nerves and In
creasing irritability. Six or seven
hours of good refreshing sleep are
sufficient for the average person, pro-
vfded the above conditions have been
observed The habit of throwing the
arms above the head or drawing the
knees up against the body or of bury
ing the face in the pillow should be
carefully avoided. A nap, if taken
during the day, should be of the brief
est duration. 1t is better to throw
oneself on the couch prone on the
back for ten or fifteen minutes once
or twice day and simply lie at ease,
with worry banished for the time. AS
rest for overstrained nerves and
weary frames it is far more beneficial
than the afternoon nap, which often
proves rather eneryating and which
sometimes interferes with perfect rest
at night.
