Row to Drive a wen.

In many sections Of the country where
there is a gravelly substratum the
obtaining of water is comparatively
simple matter by means OF driven
well, says Farming. The method Of
driving well Is as follows: A section
OF pipe "a convenient size being inch
and quarter) is fitted with q point of
iron. This pipe is bored full Of holes
which are covered with brass gauze.
The point Is driven into the ground by
a sledge hammer, and five foot sections
Of galvanized iron pipe are Joined to 1t
- 1t is driven into the ground. Ere
Quent tests are made with a pitcher
pump to discover when water has been
reached. This method OF obtaining wa
ter is not altogether satisfactory, be-
cause from the very nature of things
the work has to be done blindly, and
very often one is obliged to give up en-
trely after having driven twenty or
thirty feet of pipe through quicksand
from which no water can b obtained.

How to Care For Pet Dogs.

Pet dogs require certain amount Of
care, but the fayorite house pei, the
small dog, needs bath twice a week
in warm water with d good dog soap.
says the Boston Traveller. Cover the
skin well with lather and then let the
dog wash himself of in foot tub set
inside the larger bathtub,; so that he
can splash to his hearts content. II
dAgs are washed in this way regularly
the constant scratching which makes
them such nuisance will be obviated.
Diet Is important with house dog.
and only cooked food should be allow

feed dog that Is small. A basin Of
fresh water should be kept where he

Senator Smoot has been seated
in the Senate. There seems to
be no valid reason why he should
be expelled and yeti is pity
that the women Of America must
suffer the humiliation OF seeing a
man seated in the senate who is
an apostle of the Mormon church
and who believes ID its doctrines.
Aside from polygamy this church
offers to women nothing but de-
gradation and inferiority. It is
deplorable that auch an influence
should be increasing in power in
the United States. Smoot
was apparently entitled to his
seat but somehow the associate
editor cant help feeling glad that
Senator Kittredge voted against
him and sorry Gamble didn't.

HOLDING A SKIRT.
The Way It May Be Done Gracefully
and With Comfort.

10 hold q circular skirt in a becom-
Ing way bend the body slightly at the
waist line, dropping the right hand as
far down the back as it will reach.
Thens with the finger tips, take oppo-
site the knees the edges Of two of the
back Holds, or cores, gather them into
light but firm loop and pull gently
around the body to- the right, lifting
the material upward until on line
with tLe hip; then bend the wrist
slightly, so it will be comforta Bile, and
rest the hand on the hip bone, SO that
there will be no strain on the muscles
of the arm,
If the skirt Is so long that the bot
tom on thet opposite side touches the
ground, Il few horizontal folds should
be made Na the material. At the same
time the cores in the back are gather
ed together. :ind then there will be no
chance for tile skirt to drag, for the
cloth will be held so tightly that the
improvised plaits will stay in place,
says an exchange. Or if woman
wishes and has both hands free she
can hold the folds ando,ive q balance
to her figure that it would otherwise
be without.
Carrying full gathered skirt, such
as is often Worn to the opera, recep-
tions and for dinners, is quite simn,e
matter, for it is nothing more than
making bag by folding the ends Of
a handkerchief together.
The skirt is picked up with thumbs
and forefingers at the back by the bot
tom or edge of the hem and straight
ened out Mt the waist line, while the
hands are extended as far to right and
left as they will reach. When the ma
terial has been settled in folds around
the waist, with one hand holding the
two sides together in front. the skirt
is caught up directly in the middle OF
the front, and the three edges are held
firmly in either the right or left hand
Held in this way under an opera cape
or long cloak, a frock with train or
one that is unusually long can be man
aged with little difficulty. Exchange.
