Nothing is better than a glass fruit
jar for keeping cooking raisins moist.
A little ammonia added to water col.
ored clothes are washed in will re-
move dirt easily.
A damp cloth dipped in salt will re-
move egg stains from silver, or tea

In using ammonia for domestic pur-
poses one tablespoonful to a quart Of
water is about the ordinary proportion.
Before attempting to seed raisins
cover them with hot water and let
them stand Is minutes, then seeds can
be removed easily without any waste.

FOOLED THE PREACHER.
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him, so he quit drinking 1t.
He was so busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, n day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum a
trial, and we have used it now for
four years, with continued benefit. In
fact, he is now free from the long
train Of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are
In making Postum properly / will re-
late an incident. At a dinner we
gave, Doctor suggested we serve
Postum instead Of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, a Clergyman, sup
posed 1t was old fashioned coffee and
remarked, as he called for his sec
ond cup: II you do preach against
coffee. / see you hayJn..t forgottenho
to make It,"
This goes to show that well-made-
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al
though it has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
it has none of the poisonous effect OF
ordinary coffee, but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee: There's a

Be Good to the Invalid.

Do not bring any unpleasant news
or discordant family affairs into the
sick room.
If asked to read the newspaper read
only the cheeriest news.
Do not leave any soiled dishes or
linen a minute under the patients
eye. Food that might be eaten later
should be taken away and fresh food
brought later.
Do not forget to remove flowers
from the room at night, and never
leave flowers in the roo after they
are withered and decayed.
Limit visitors to Is minutes or less,
as an invalid is easily tired. Warn
each visitor to carry a sunshiny face
and only CHEEKY news.
Do not attempt to quiet the patient
for the night until you are assured
that the household is at rest, for the
patient must not be disturbed.

CLEARED HIMSELF OF BLAME.
Explanation of Politician That Sure
iy Was Convincing.

A recent incident in Australia is re-
lated as showing how watchful a poll
tician must be in this c%ensorious age.
Among other accounts of a deadhead
nature on the books of the Westralia
railway was one setting forth that
Miss Peacock had been franked over
the lines to the value of $35, and in
stantly there was wide demands about
1t. People wanted to know why Sir
Alexander Peacock's daughter was
given these privileges. Sir Alexander
himself, a former premier Of Victoria,
was very much hurt when he heard
Of the matter, and fastened to assure
the Westralian government firstly,
that If his daughter had appeared in
W~estralia, it was entirely without his
sanction; secondly, If she had made
claims upon the Westralia railways
she had done 1t without his authority;
thirdly, that never during his long po-
litical career had he asked his own
state. let alone any other, to extend
dead-heading privileges to a daughter
of his; and, fourthly and finally, he
had no daughter, and w has had q
daughter.-Boston Transcript.

To Keep Skirt from Sagging.

Often that which appears to be a
most perfectly tailored skirt will grow
to hang with a twist, or the plaits will
fly back farther on one side than on
the other. 1t nearly always turns out
that the stitching upon plaits or cores
is run up one side and down on the
side opposite. The natural inclination
followed even by the women that do
the work for good tailors is to stitch
down from the top on n side, and,
turning the skirt most easily in the
machine, to stitch up on the other.
Instead, all of the work should run up
or all of it down-preferably down.
Without taking this care a skirt may
sag and the greatest amount of fuss
ing and pressing will never get the
warped" quality out of it.

Calling Costume.

A calling costume has a skirt all
of a fine black chiffon cloth with an
empire form to the skirt, which ends
high about the waist under a great
buckle of gold. A jabot of esru lace
pillows down the front and a tiny tie
at the base of the choker is of GRIM
son. The half-itting empire coat has
a trimming along its edges of GRIM
son and gold braid and the slashed
openings on either side near the foot
are reheld by similar frogs. The
back is in long graceful lines, and
the lining, glimpses of which may be
seer on each side of the belt, is OF
white. A small toque of crimson felt
has a shaded bird that overs it COM

THE ARTISTIC WALL.
One Of Solid Color viii Always Give
Best Effect. =

The dearest, daintiest, most artistic
wall is a solid colored wall. 1t fur
nishes a perfect background for all
kinds of pictures, 1t throws them out
in their correct proportions, and does
not detract from their artistic value.
The solid colored wall is also much
better as a background for furniture,
and harmonizes much more artistical-
ly with carpets and rugs than any
other method Of wall treatment. The
less breaking UP of color on a wall
the more artistic it is.
The most successful form of the
solid colored wall is IN alabastined
wall. There is as much difference be-
tween tinted walls, as there is be-
tween shoddy and Atwood gowns. The
shoddy gown holds its color for a few
days, while the Atwood keeps its color
to the very last thread, so also in solid
colored walls, there are shoddy walls
and permanently colored walls which
retain their color down to the very
last particle. The ideal wall coating
never rubs off, never flakes nor chips
off and is always ready for a fresh
coat. If, there Is wallpaper on the
wall, soak it off with warm water,
then go over the plaster after you
have removed the paper with warm
water to remove every trace of paste.
Have the wall thoroughly clean for a
clean wall cannot be built or an un-
clean foundation. If there. are any
particles of foreign matter adhering
to the wall scrape them off with a
putty knife. Then if there are any
discolorations on the wall, size it with
a material made from cheap varnish,
thinned down with benzine and japan
added for a drier, then v your
wall with your tinting material.
Be sure your mar uses a tinting ma
terial mixed with cold water. If he
comes to you and asks for warm wa
ter, you can make up your mind that
there is glue in the material which he
proposes to put on your wall, and you
can be certain that you are going to
have a shoddy wall, for glue means
shoddy. Glue means that it will hold
it's color long enough for the man to
collect his bill and not much longer.
Insist on your tinting material being
mixed with clear, cold water. Be sure
that your wall is made from pure ma
terials, then you will have a perma-
nent, artistic, sanitary wall. A wall
that will be a thing of beauty and a
Joy forever"

WITH THE AFTERNOON TEA.
Appetizing Novelties That Will Be
Appreciated.

Appetixing Novelties That Will Be
Appreciated.
Two I:inds of CONNECTION, one plain
and one sweet, are sufficient for the
late afternoon tea, and only one Is
served by the majority of people on
everyday occasions. These should be
neatly placed on a compete or cake
basket with a mat beneath of lace
paper or the ordinary dolly. We give
a number Of new cakes, sandwiches
and fancy crackers, with a few words
Of description, which are appetizing
novelties for tea:
Tea Cakes-Thin waters. in irregu-
lar shapes favored with vanilla or
chocolate.
Cambray Bis - Half-moon maca-
rooms, an inch wide, with chopped
nuts.
Fan Jumbles-Fancy jumbles in the
shape of an open fan.
Swiss Jumbles-Round jumbles, with
meringue tops.
Observation-Disclosures oval pastries,
pierced in waffle or lattice fashion.
Cassava Cakes - Large, round,
waxy waters slightly favored with
cheese.
Buttered T'riscuit-F1at, shredded
wheat crackers. Before serving but
ter thickly and bake in oven; serve
as hot as possible.
French Cheese Sandwiches-Sliced
brown bread with jam or marmelade,
with a layer of fresh cream cheese
on top.
French Sweet Sandwiches - Thin
strips of puff paste, spread with whip
ped cream and a layer of jam.

Rusty Fire Irons.

Rusty irons should be well rubbed
with sweet oil, left for "a hours, and
then secured with unslaked lime; If
the stains are very deep the lime may
be laid on as a paste, and left for a
day or two. 1t must be kept in mind
that if the rust has thoroughly eaten
into the steel nothing will remove it.
Prevention in this case is better
than cure, and if fire irons, tops of
tenders, ETC., are rubbed every day
with a piece of tissue paper, rust will
not make its appearance.

SClATIC TORTURE
