CARE OF THE LAMP
HOW GOOD, EVEN LIGHT MAY BE
 ASSURED.
Burners and Wicks Must Be We'll Looked After and Properly cIeaned-chimneys Should
 Be Boiled.

The lamps should first be collected from every room, and all put to- gether on a large tray In the kitchen. Then a big wooden box is brought out, which contains greasy cloths, soft cloths, pair of old gloves, wick rags, scissors, chamois leather and chimney cleaners. Opinions are di- vided as to whether a wick should be cut or rubbed down. The best way Is to rub 1t down with bit of rag which should be burned, and not put back in the box, and then any stray ends of cotton cut off with scissors. Great care should be taken to hold the burn CT we'll away from the lamp, when the wick is rubbed down, otherwise the charred portions are apt to fall on to it.
 Once a month the burners should be boiled. Remove the wicks, aad then place the whole of the burner first releasing its various portions from one another-in a saucepan Of water with a little soda, and bring to the boil. Twenty to thirty minutes boiling will make the burners as bright as ever they were, and should any black still adhere it can be re- moved with hatpin, after which the burner is boiled up again.
 Of course a saucepan must be kept specially for this, and it should be either plainly marked or kept away from other culinary utensils, as food cooked in 1t would be unpleasantly favored. The burners must be thor oughly dried and, if possible, put in the sun for few minutes. Mean while the wicks must have been seen to. If very dirty they should be washed out in clean suds, but usually a thorough drying in the sun or in a warm kitchen will put them in condi- ton for burning properly. It Is ex- tremely important that they should be quite dry before being put back into the oil. #
 Daily cleansing of every lamp in use should be as much a part of the housewife's duties as making the beds.
 Another precaution to take to pre- vent wicks from smoking is to boil them. Buy them in punches, place in a porcelain kettle, cover with strong vinegar, bring the latter to boil, and set where the kettle will keep warm for three hours. Drain out the wick, dry thoroughly, and keep from dust Wicks thus soaked rarely smoke.
 If chimneys are bought in quantity and boiled, they also may be pre- vented in great measure from break ing. Lay some shavings in the bot tom of a wash boiler, pack in the chimneys, throw a handful of salt over them, and fill with cold water Allow to come to boil slowly, sim mer for two hours, then take from the fire; cover thickly, so that they will be at least three hours in cooling. When cold, wash the chimneys in hot water in which little soda has been dissolved. Rinse in hot water, dry, and store in a cupboard Chimneys should also be washed in hot soda water.

Uses for Sour Milk.

A dish of Dutch, or cottage, cheese can be made of sour milk. Sour milk makes soft, spongy, light cake, corp bread, graham bread, ginger bread. molasses cookies, doughnuts, and grid. dle cakes are much better made with sour milk and soda than sweet milk and baking powder.
 Sour milk is excellent to feed chick ems. Oilcloth washed with sour milk and rinsed well is much brighter look ing. Fruit stains may be removed from linen or white goods by soaking in sour milk. Rinse well.
 Salt meat and fish can be freshened by soaking over night in sour milk. Buttermilk is claimed by some phy- sicians to cure various ills, such as indigestion, kidney and liver troubles. Sour milk will cure ivy poisoning

Ancient Writers on Poisons.

Poison lore, "poison-lehre," as 1t was long called, was considered for bidden subject for many ages. Gaten, in his work "On Antidotes," remarks that the only authors who dared to write of poisons were Orpheus, Theo- logus, Morus, Mendesius the younger, Heliodorus, of Athens, and a few oth- CTS. Unfortunately, none of their treaises is in existence.

Immense numbers of jute sacks are annually used in the shipment of nitrate from Chile. They come prin- cipally from Australia and the East Indies, and are never used the second time, as the nitrate rots the fiber.

YALPS ATHLETIC NEEDS.
Ne1c Boathouse May Be Built from
the "Secret" Fund.

New Haven, jan q CspeciaD.-Yale athletic Off
cials, encouraged by the gift OF a new swimming
tank by Andrew Carnegie, have been aroused ana
arc renewing the campaign for new baseball
cage and for a new bOathouse. Yale alumni have
failed 10 respond to appeals Coz contributions. and
the athletic officials have been compelled to fall
back on Walter Camps "secret athletic" fund or
100000. which the faculty turned up in their long
investigation last winter the sole hope for the
two buildings.
The faculty looked on the 100000 the result OF
rigid economy for thirteen years by the athletic
managers as accumulated surplus, as n lavish
amount for athletic buildings. Some OF the
professors urged It's being applied to other
uses than athletics, perhaps to a professor
ship endowment. The fund proves to be entirely
too small, however. for the building needs.
and talk that it might partially go toward a new
stadium has been Quieted by the revelation that
the boathouSe Will cost more than $4,000 and the
cage fully much. at the lowest estimate.
a year ago plans were made by the crew off,
cials for boathouse. which they thought
would cost about SIS 600. An examination Of the
plans showed that they were not adequate. Under
the present arrangement only about fifty students
enjoy boating at Yale John Kennedy the

COLLEGE, FOOTBALL

The action Of the American intercollegiate
football rules committee, which met on Friday
snd Saturday, to consider further changes in
the FTiless should meet with the complete ap-
proval OF al lovers Of the game The committee
realized that the code was acceptable in the
main. as Il did last year-that there was no
urgent and compelling need for radical action
It's findings year ago were such as 70 satisfy
al fair minded persons. and the code worked
out better than was expected by even the most
optimistic Its findings this year are quite as
satisfying. opportunity is now offered to
continue the development Of the game along
the same lines, which made for such clean,
manly and interesting sport last season
The few changes made were not OF a kind 10
affect the general plan OF the game as played
last year in any of its salient features but they
VIII serve 10 clear up many disputed points and
strengthen several weak points. The change in
the penalty for failure in the OF the for
ward pass from loss OF the ball to the loss Of
fifteen yards viii encourage the development Of
these daring and brilliant plays, particularly
when team is fighting IN its own territory.
None Of the restrictions was removed, but the
change In penalty enough to increase the
value OF the forward pass tenfold The length
ening Of the playing time from thirty to thirty
Eve minutes in each half was also good move.
The game played under the new code is
less exhausting, and so free from unnecessary
roushness and foul play that little or time
ts taken out. This made thirty minutes for a
half ell too short, and led to a number OF tie
games last season. which might have reached
more satisfying ending with a little time.
The addition of new official, to be called
field umpire, VIII insure even cleaner and more
sportsmanlike games. Any evasion OF the rules
win now be practically impossible. There was
little or no premium last season a little bit
OF holding a little bit Of offsde play, q little
bit OF starting before the ball is put in play a
little biz OF roughing, which did much TO
bring the sport into dsrepute in previous years.
What little there was. however can now be
enectually stopped. and lany eVasions will be
a distinct menace 10 the eleven which tries
TO employ them, in 5eopardizing, perhaps, the

year as II was radical last, and the best inter-
ests OF The game have been conserved.

RESOLUTION AGAINST AUTO GRATING

The Association Of Licensed Automobile Manu-
fscturers has taken 1D the fight against the crat-
Ing nuisance in taking cars 10 Europe. At q re-
cent meeting OF the executive committee the fol-
lowing resolution adopted and ordered sent to
the transatlantic lines:
Resolved. That It is the sense OF tho executive
committee OF the Association of Licensed Automo-
bile Manufacturers that the said rule Of transat-
lantic steamship lines Is the direct cause OF un-
necessary inconvenience and expense of money and
time 10 automobile owners and manufacturers a
hindranco TO the normal growth OF international
tomobile touring and trade and improper linn
itation upon modern transportation.
In the preamble to this resolution it was stated
that many more automobilists would go to Europe
were 1t not for the Grating requirement, which was
costly and, E the opinion OF motorists frequently
resulted in damage. 1t was pointed out that coast
wise lines. both in Europe and in America do not
require Grating. which is also the rule the Great
Lakes and the ST. Lawrence. II was also urged
that automobile manufacturers should have fhe
option OF making transoceanio shipments of their
products uncrated.
