AROUND THE HOUSE
VALUABLE HINTS ON MATTERS
IN GENERAL.
One of the Best of the Perfumes for
the Linen Closet-Mixture
That Will Restore Faded
Wall Paper.

Perfume for Linen.-Take half a
pound of lavender flowers without the
stalks, one-half ounce each of dried
thyme and mint, quarter Of an ounce
of ground cloves and carraway, one
ounce of common dry salt. Mix all well
together and put into silken bags.
Apple Water.-A change can be
rung on the ordinary beverages when
the first apples appear. Take two rath-
er tart apples or two roasted apples.
Peel them, take out the core and slice
up thinly. Add a piece of yellow rind
of a lemon and little sugar. Place in
the bottom of jug and pour pint of
boiling water over it. When cold
strain the liquid and serve with ice.
Cloves or cinnamon may be added to
the apples.
To Danish Fleas.-Sprinkle camo-
mile flowers in the beds and linen
closets and among the clothes and the
fleas will leave.
Restoring Faded Paper.-Where
cartridge paper has faded during the
summer the original color can be re-
stored by getting regular water color
paint and mixing it with Paris white
and the required amount of sizing to
hold. Rub the dust off the paper with
a cloth and apply the water color to
the paper with a kalsomining brush.
To Exterminate Cockroaches.-Per-
feet cleanliness is the first essential.
Leave nothing to eat out of the re-
frigerator. Have all shelves, etc., thor
oughly scrubbed and scalded and
sprinkled with best borax.
To Preserve FIowers.-The shape
and color of flowers may be preserv-
ed long after they have become dry by
dipping them carefully as soon as
gathered in limpid gum-water. The
gum forms a complete coating over
the stem and petals, and the flowers
often remain perfect for months.
Restoring Faded Cottons.-When
cotton goods have faded in washing
dye CT the desired shade can be used
after the goods have been thoroughly
washed. BY getting an assortment Of
dyes-blue, red and yellow-almost
any shade desired can be mixed. Use
the dye in the last rinsing water.
A Cream Cheese Dish.-If you like
cream cheese or pot cheese, vary the
dish sometime by serving finely chop
ped chives with it. Mix the cheese
with a small pot of butter and then
put in the chives and salt and pep
per. and leave for little while until
the taste of chives has time to perme'
ate the cheese.

Recent experiments show that the
popular belief that warts are COM

writer. "Inoculation of healthy tissue
with blood obtained from 'wart will
cause the growth of similar ex-

growths contain an ultramicroscopic
germ to which is due the transmission
from one person to another. At all
events, persons who have warts should
take measures to have them removed

The man selected and elected will
have no voice in selecting a sue
cessor for Senator Foraker, but
there are number of most i'm
portant matters of legislation to
be considered at the coming session
OF the legislature and it is most
important that Marion county be
well represented. Then too, the
party which is successful this fall
will most certainly be successful in
next years election, when a rep
resentative, who will have a vote
for the next United States Senator,
will be selected. Victory this fall
spells victory in 1908. The first
step to victory is the selection of
the proper men for delegates and
the second step in the selection of
a candidate who will faithfully rep
resent Marion county and who can
be elected.

nights caucuses are most import
ant. No faithful democrat can af-
