Caring For Mems Clothes.

There is no cleaning fluid that I
have ever had any experience with
that equals gasoline as clothes
cleaner. but 1t is very explosive and
care should be taken not to use it
near fire or light The safest way Is
to use it in the open air. To avoid
the unsightly circle that often APP
pears when a grease spot has been
removed, the cloth should be rubbed
lengthwise and with the weave, and
the rubbing should be continued un-
til the cloth is perfectly dry. Honey.
molasses or any sticky substance may
be removed by rubbing with slightly
diluted alcohol. A coat, vest or pair
of pants that are not much soiled, will
come out of a good gasoline bath
looking almost like new. First,
brush and shake the garment until
1t seems perfectly free of dust; then
remove the spots and put the gar
ment in a bucket and pour enough
gasoline over it to saturate it thor
oughly, then cover the bucket to keep
the fluid from evaporating. and leave
1t for two hours. Press and squeeze
as much of the fluid out as possible.
then hang the garment over the line,
and it will need no ironing. When
garment is much soiled, the best way
to get 1t clean again is to remove
the spots and wash the garment
through a strong suds to which a
tablespoonful of borax has been add
ed, and little of the borax should
be added to the rinsing water. as 1t
will not only soften the water, but
will brighten the color Of the goods.
The buttons should be removed and
the buttonholes basted together be-
fore washing, and If the sleeves and
pant legs are worn around the edges,
rip out the hens and turn them up
far enough to conceal the worn part,
and run skirt braid on the under
meath side, and the garment will look
much nicer when finished. FLORIDA

Saving in the Kitchen.

1t has often been remarked that
what is thrown into the garbage can
in our rich country would feed all
the poor. l have seen this proved
many a time, and 1t Is not the we'll

mize, who either know not how to
utilize instead of throwing away
things or are too lazy to do so.
There are half-loaves of white
bread-what a number of good dishes
could be made from them IL people
knew how good this bread is when
dipped in water and put back into the
oven for a little while; and why do
we have anything like cracker dust
when we can have fine grated bread?

No SI,Op Talk.

A Washington educator is telling
a story about young medical stu
dent of his who is interested In insan-
ity symptoms and is a sort OF anna
teur alienist. The other day the
student got a chance to visit one or
the wards in the asylum for the In
sane, and having heard that there
was a man confined there who la
bored under the Authorization that he
was God the student asked that he
be allowed to see that patient first,
as he appeared the most promising
for his investigation. He was taken
to the ward where the lunatic was
confined and the following converse
ton ensued:
Student-Are you the Deity?
Lunatic-From everlasting unto
everlasting, l am he.
Student-Well; I've been looking
for you for long time. | have a
question to ask you. How do you
reconcile the doctrines of predestina-
ton and free will?
The lunatic drew himself up to his
full height and giving the medico
a scornful glance replied: my dear
sir, | never talk shop.

Women And HairpIns.

1--WE buy hairpins by the hundred
weight and sell in one form or an
other about three gross day said
the foreman of the notion counter
in department store.
"A woman with three or four grown
daughters buys hairpins by the pound
and buys good many pounds in the
course of a year at that. Where
there is only one woman in the house
she buys her hairpins by the package,
put up in some fancy and convenient
shape. The latter way is the more
expensive, of course.
women with hairpins are very
much like men with matches. Some
shed them as they go and never can
find one when they want it. Others
keep them where they can make up
for the forgetfulness of their less
careful sisters"

Building of Petrified Wood.

A building at New England, Het-
finger County, N. D., is made of petri-
fed wood. The building belongs to
Charles Mead, rancher. 1t was
constructed for a residence but is no
longer used for that purpose. 1t has
been used for a private school the
last year. 1t stands on the edge of
bluff at the foot of which runs the
Cannonball River. The various col
ors of the petrified wood glisten in
the sunshine. The wall Is left un-
pointed, thus exposing the uneven
projecting specimens Of the wood that
have become, through natures mys-
FERROUS influence, beautiful stones.
Here and there scattered over
wide area on the Missouri slope are
groups OF specimens, usually one or
two wagonloads in place. But there
is field in the western part Of Het-
finger County where these petrifac-
lions are thick over two or three
acres.-Glen Ullin Correspondence

CHILDREN TORTURED.

Roth Cured Ivy CutiCur0

Last year, after having my little girl
treated by very prominent physician for
an obstinate case of eczema, l resorted to
the Cuticura Remedies, and was so we'll
pleased with the almost instantaneous re-
lief afforded that we discarded the physi-
clans prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills When we commenced with
the Cuticura Remedies her feet and limbs
were covered with running sores. Ii scout
six weeks we had her completely WELL and
there has been no recurrence of the
trouble.
an July of this year little boy in our
family poisoned his hands and arms with
poison oak, and in twenty-four hours his
hands and arms were mass of torturing
sores. We used only the Cuticura Rene
dies, and in about three weeks his hands
and arms healed up. Mrs. Lizzie Vincent

Salads.

The use of salads prepared from
tender plants and vegetables is to
be encouraged, as tender vegetables
are among the most healthful foods
to be had. While they may not be
very nourishing in themselves, they
contain salts, which are very excel
lent correctives, and these salts are,
in many cases, changed or destroyed
in cooking. Salads made of raw veg
etables contain an alkaline salt which
Is of the greatest value In all skin
disease. Such foods are appetizing,
and the oils used with them are nour-
lshing If not killed by too much vine
gar, pepper, and like seasonings
Green foods are excellent for clogged

College Girl Has A New Idea.

"These college girls" said clergy
man, as he gazed at the white and
superb ranks of the beautiful grad
yates, "are a boon to the race. They
introduce new ideas.
II christened the other day the
first baby of a married college girl.
Now, babies usually cry while they
are being christened; but this one
was as quiet as lamb. Throughout
the ceremony it smiled up beautiful
ly into my face.

The Color of Life.

The world is not made up to the
eye of figures, that is, only half; 1t Is
also made of color, wrote Emerson.
How that element washes the uni
verse with it's enchanting waves! The
sculptor has ended his work, and be-
hold new world of dream-like glory.
IT'S the last stroke of nature; be-
yond color she cannot go. In like
manner life is made up, not OF knowl-
edge only, but of love also. II
thought Is form, sentiment Is color.
1t clothes the skeleton world with
space, variety and glow. The hues
of sunset make life great; SO the af-
fectiOns make some little web OF cot
tage and fireside populous, important
and filling the main space In our his
tory.-Home Herald.

FEET OUT.
She Had Curious Habits.

When person has to keep the feet
out from under cover during the cold
est nights in winter because of the
heat and prickly sensation, it is time
that coffee, which causes the trouble,
be left off.
There Is no end to the nervous con-
ditions that coffee will produce 1t
shows in one way in one person and
in another way in another. In this
case the lady lived in S. Oak. She
says:
Il have had to lie awake half the
night with my feet and limbs out of
the bed on the coolest nights, and felt
afraid to sleep for fear of catching
cold. l had been troubled for years
with twitching and jerking of the
lower limbs, and for most of the time
| have been unable to go to church
or to lectures because of that awful
feeling that must keep on the move.
when it was brought to my atten-
ton that coffee caused so many nerv-
Gus diseases, concluded to drop cof-
fee and take Postum Food Coffee to
see IL my trouble was caused by cof-
fee drinking.
Il only drank one cup of coffee for
breakfast, but that was enough to do
the business for me. When I quit 1t
my troubles disappeared in an almost
miraculous way. Now have no
more of the jerking and twitching
and can sleep with any amount of
bedding over me and sleep all night
in sound, peaceful rest.
Postum Food Coffee Ia absolutely
worth its weight in gold to me-"

Minerals In The Philippines.

Gold is found all over the Islands,
but as yet In no large pockets. Ameri-
can miners are, however, prospecting
the country in their search for the
precious metal, and it is believed
there are possibilities In this line.
Copper Is found in large deposits,
but lack of transportation facilities
to the localities where found has pre-
vented much development. When
tho new railroads are In operation
these will become more accessible.

ners, and some of his errors were
both ludicrous and painful.
Toward the dinners end servant
extended to the young man plate
of toothpicks. He waved the plate
away, saying in low and bitter
voice:

eaten two of the accursed thing, and
