Sensible Suggestions.

Sunshine should never be shut out
Of the nursery. Sleep at night will be
more refreshing for the flood of sun
shine let into the room during the
day.
People will eat hot dishes and wash
them down with iced drinks, and then
wonder why their teeth can't stand
such a terrific and sudden change of
temperature. It's a marvel that the
teeth do not crack completely with
the alternate roasting and freezing.
Filled teeth are extremely sensitive

quently results.
Many persons, says a Well-knoWn
doctor, though not actually sick, keep
below par in strength and general
tone, and we are of opinion that fast
ing during the long interval between
supper and breakfast, and especially
the complete emptiness of the stom-
ach during sleep, adds greatly to the
amount of emaciation, sleeplessness
and general weakness we so often
meet. Physiology teaches that in the
body there is perpetual distintegra-
ton of tissue, sleeping or waking; it
is, therefore, logical to believe that
the supply of nourishment should be
somewhat continuous, especially in
those who are below par, if we would
counteract their emaciation and lower
degree of vitality; and as bodily exer-

Moody Women.

''It is all very we'll to be bright and
frolicsome, all smiles and laughter,
when one is eighteen or twenty" re-
marked moody woman of thirty,
"but troubles soon sweep all that kind
OF thing away, and yet some people
will go on trying to keep youthful
"And why shouldn't they?" asked an
older woman. Keeping youthful
doesn't mean pretending one is TWEEN
ty-five when one has passed forty, but
it does mean retaining that brightness
and freshness which is the charm of
youth, and which everyone realizes is
the most delightful thing in the world.
Everyone has or has had her
youth, and it has always appeared to
me absolutely absurd the way people
literally let their youthful feelings slip
off as they walk along the road of
time. There is no reason for it. It is
some preconceived idea that uncon-
sciously urges them to do it. If big,
grave troubles come it may sober
down their spirits for time, but then,
if this youthfulness is such a good
thing, their first thought should be to
gather it up around them again, just
as one would cloak that a gust of
cold, bitter wind had blown unfasten-
ed. But as rule, it isn't trouble,
worry, distress, or anything that may
come to one that steals away the
brightness Of life SO surely as that
weird habit Of indu1ging in moods,
and ugly moods, too, which so many
women cultivate.
you will find moody women in
every walk Of life just tearing their
youth from them You have only to
be with them ten minutes when YOU
realize that whatever happens to them
is, in their eyes, just the very worst
thing. If great happiness comes
along they can only see how much
greater it might have been, and SO on.
Their moodiness soon becomes a dis
ease, and disease soon DESTROYS all
beauty in everything"

The Care of Gloves.

Too much cannot be said about the
necessity for proper care in removing
gloves from the hands, for upon this
more than anything else depends the
length of time pair of gloves will
wear. After christening the glove it
should be turned back over the hand
as far as the fingers, and then should
be pushed off without pulling on the
fingers of the glove at all, as when
this is done the threads of the sew

Bad Complexion.

Many a girl suffers from an ugly,
blotched, unhealthy complexion who
could cure the trouble completely by
eating fruit, drinking water and taking
quick beauty bath every morning.
The idea is to stimulate the body in
it's natural work of sending away pois-
onous substances. Battle the face
every night with warm water, cor

rinsing, drying and applying.

After the glove is off the hand the
fingers should be gently Strengthened

Applying a Plaster.

Before having a plaster applied to
the back or chest, one should take
deep breath and hold it while the
plaster is being put on. If this is
done the patient will not be annoyed
by that drawing of the skin which is
so unpleasant a feature when the
plaster is ordinarily applied.

Systematic Sighting in Housework.

There was time when the house
work was considered unfinished unless
every used room was swept and dust
ed every day, and every other item
was punctiliously attended to. With
the multiplicity of duties which mod
ern civilization brings, it is impossible
for one woman to care for house
with the same ease as formerly.
Therefore it is necessary to choose
between ruined health and the syste-
matte sighting of some parts Of the
work.
The daily sweeping is one Of the
things that can be lessened consider
ably if one is in earnest about saving
strength. By picking up the scraps
from the floor and wiping the dust
from the furniture, even the family
sitting-room need not be swept every
day, and the bedrooms will do very
we'll with a good sweeping once
week.
Carpets should be avoided by the
woman who is not strong, as bare
floors and rugs are SO much easier to
manage. The floors should be oiled or
painted to save work in keeping them
clean Even the soft wood floors may
be made to look very nice by staining
them with one of the Diamond wood
stains and then oiling them. Wiping
UP the dust with a mop wrung from
water in which is a little kerosense
is easier than sweeping and leaves the
floor looking better
The table dishes do not need to be
wiped if they are washed in warm
pearline suds, scalded in boiling water
and turned in the drainer to dry.
A cloth spread over them will keep
off dust and flies The glasses may he
rinsed in cold water after the suds
washing and turned on a folded cloth
to dry. Before securing the steel
knives and forks stand them in can
of hot suds up to the handles and they
will come bright much easier.
Instead Of washing the dish towels
every day have good supply and
wash them all together once a week,
but not with the family washing. Put
them to soak over night in strong
pearline suds, and in the morning
put them over slow fire to come to
boil and boil about fifteen minutes.
Take them out and wash through two
waters, then put out to dry. They
will need very little rubbing.
It is often possible to cook enough
in the morning to last all day, leaving
the dinner on the stove to keep hot
until noon, while the supper may be
a cold one.
If the wicks of lamps are carefully
trimmed so that they will not smoke,
the chimneys will not need daily
cleaning. Put in the necessary oil and
wipe the outside of the lamp, then
pinch off the wick, and put it away
This will only take few minutes
for several lamps each morning, and
once week they should be given a
thorough cleaning A paper sack
pulled down over the chimney during
the day will keep it clean
