HOUSE CLEANING IN FALL.
Cellar 10 One Important Point to Be
Considered.

The house does not get so dirty
during the summer that . general up
heaval 10 necessary for fall house
cleaning. though there il one place
where the greatest attention must be
given, and that is in the cellar. Damp
days, together with the decaying vege-
tables and fruits stored in the cellar
and the unavoidable dirt which is GER
tain to accumulate. makes 1t really
necessary to hang up red light in
that apartment unless the cellar Is
properly cleaned during the fall.
Often the cleanest house will have
a cellar in the most disreputabe con-
ditton with spoiled fruits, vegetables
and the like, making 1t hotDed OF
diseases. Have the cellar walls swept
and literally whitewashed. clean the
floor and sprinkle with lime. Every
box. cupboard and boarding place
should be thoroughly cleaned with hot
water and soap. II there is any per-
ceptible dampness, the cellar should
be aired. II possible, and often this
can be overcome by burning small
gas or oil stove in the cellar for one
day. No difference how nicely one
may prepare canned fruits and pre-
serves. II the cellar ia In q damp CON
dition everything will mold and in
many cases sour and spoil. One days

represented in the canned fruits, jeL

the jagged lightning was the natural
emblem of this awful power.
So with the successive emigrations
OF the Aryans from northern India all
over Europe, the swastika spread and,
adopted as a symbol of Buddha in tho
seventh century before Christ, 1t was
later carried into China and Japan.
The Arabs and Jews knew it not, nor
did the ancient Egyptians. but they
were not of Aryan blood.
Thus the hammer of Thor, the Scan
dinavian deity for whom Thursday is
named. was this very same swastika
which the maiden of to-day is using to
ornament summer shirt waist. It
was with his mighty hammer. Mioll-
ner, that Thor is tabled to have crush
ed the head of the Midgard serpent,
destroyed the giants. restored TO life

ORIGIN OF SWASTIKA'

some antiquarians believe they have
discovered the fact of its existence in
the so-called polished stone age OF
man.
Prof. Schliemann found 1t at His
sarlik in the buried cities that under
lay the ancient Troy. OF which Homer
sang, which indicates its existence at
a period from 5000 to $500 years ago.
BY those who look upon the region
to the northwest of India as the
primal home OF the blonde races of
the world, that ancient land is also
looked upon as the birthplace OF the
swastika. r. p. Greg, an eminent
English authority argues that 1T was
a much-used and favorite religious
symbol among the earlier Aryan races,
and was intended by them in the first
instance. to represent in cruciform
form an Telegraph or symbol suggest

A Problem Of the Stree.

The number OF carriages and We,
hicles OF every description crowding
the streets of Paris augments continu-
ally, and the danger, not only to Pc
destrians, but to the carriages them
selves, has become SO great that an
engineer. Monsieur Henard, proposes
the establishment, at the most danger
Gus crossings, of a circular island Of
refuge" in the center, and the regu.
lation of all traffic in such manner
that every vehicle traversing the
crossing-point. no matter what its ul-
Innate direction may be, shall pass
round the central plateau in the same
direction. Thus the danger Of
collision and the peril to foot-passen.
gers would be reduced to minimum.
The cut illustrates the operation Of
this proposed whirlpool Of traffic.

WIRE CHARLOTTE cORDAY
 STOPPED

A good deal of old Paris is disap- bearing just now, and among the lat- est bits of the antique city to be threatened is the little spot upon which Charlotte Corday found a neeting place of rest as she entered the city on her errand of death. It stands on the street which prior to the days of the revolution had been known as that of the VieuX Augustus. It now Is the Rue d'Argout. The building is the Hotel de la Providence. Charlotte ar rived in Paris from Caen on July g. 1793. slept at the hotel on that and the following night. and on the morning of the 11th walked quietly out of it to slay the monster Marat The bed room is still pointed out which the Norman heroine occupied. and some regret is felt that the place Is tO De demolished. But the march Of pro gress is merciless. The buildings arc needed to extend the Rue du LCuvre. and soon human feet will tramp on the spot where the Norman heroine slept her last calm sleep of maiden freedom.
