How Not to Catch Cold.

A baldheaded physician as he brush
ed d few flies from the white and pol
ished dome of his skull said, accord
ing to the Milwaukee Journal: II used
to be dreadfuliy subject to colds, even
In the summer had to wear black
skullcap all the time. The minute
took it off / began to sneeze and
wheeze. But now for year | have
not once worn a skullcap and have
not once had a cold. Why, could go
and stand bareheaded in a snowstorm
without any i'll effect. My immunity
to colds comes from this: Every morn
ing put my head under the cold wa
ter spigot and let the cold water run
for a minute on my bald crown. This
is a refreshing thing, and since be-
gan to do it have never had cold.

How to Wash Valuable Ornaments.


The washing of valuable china needs
to be carried out very cautiously and
carefully, A big wooden bowl, filed
with warm, not boiling, soapsuds, to
which a few drops of household am
monia have been added should be
prepared and each piece Of china
washed separately in this, using a
square Of old flannel for plain plates,
etc, and soft brush "a painters brush
is BEST for deliberately ornamental ar
ticles. Rinse in another wooden bowl
of clean warm water and dry with
linen cloths Bronze ornaments may
be washed in the same way, but should
be finally polished with ehamois
leather. Some people consider a rub
with rag, on which there is the least
suspicion of parafin, gives bronze a
nice appearance. but we do not think 1t
necessary Glass should be washed in
warm water that has a little ammonia
in it, but no soap, and then rinsed In
quite cold water. says Woman's Life.
Cut glass should be washed with n
brush, or, if deliberately cut and very
dirty, it is rather good plan not to
wash it at all, but brush a paste Of
whiting and water well into it. allow
ing it to dry on thoroughly, then re-
moving it with a clean brush and final
ly polishing with an old silk handker-
chief.

WEATHER LORE.
How to Tell Whether it Will Be Fine
or RAINY

TOW Il Sti ssHStHSE ft VIII DC e isfo
or Rainy.
On the very finest evening when d
dry east wind is blowing, the dust
thick and white on the roads, the sky
blue from horizon to horizon, IL you
see long, filmy stripes of cirrus, COM
monty called wind clouds, stringing
palely across miles overhead, you may
feel as nearly certain as one can be
of anything in this uncertain world
chat rain is within twenty-four hours,
says the New York Journal.
If the cirrus hardens and thickens to-
ward sunset, then be sure that the
downpour is coming that very night,
and you will be awakened by the
tinlle of drops upon the window and
lie moan of a moisture laden wind in
your chimney.
Watch the clouds, and they will tell
you more about the weather than all
the barometers ever made. Notice the
wind as well, and you will become a
foreeaster Of renown. 1t is in the
morning and the evening that the
clouds tell you most.
The worst sign is when the clouds
increase just before sunset and hang
over the western horizon in rugged,
broken masses with harsh edges and
indeterminate, bIotchy colors. The an
CRY look of such sky speaks for it
self and portends wind and rain.
A pale yellow sunset. even though no
clouds appear to be visible, is also a
bad sign, and rain is almost certain.
A degree worse is the dusky, leaden
sheet of cloud which may sometimes
be seen obscuring the sinking sun.
Sometimes a string of feather clouds,
very small and light, resembling the
strippings of goose quilts, are seen low
down across the western sky at even
ing. Rain without wind or fog will
probably be the weather the following
morning.
very sure sign Of westerly or
southweSterly gale is a straight skirt
ing of cloud across that part of the
evening sky from which the wind is
to come If the sunset be ruddy, the
wind is the more certain to arrive.
The old saying, RED at night is the
sailors delight is only true when the
sun sets in cloudless heaven. In
this case, too, the sun should appear
very clearly defined at its setting.
much more certain prediction of
fine weather is afforded by a really
golden sunset, especially if the evening
be calm or a salmon colored haze along
the rim of the horizon. In winter when
the sun itself turns deep red at its set

How to Make Eyelets.

There's a new way of making those
troublesome eyelets, discovered by a
girl who is locally famous for invent
ing labor saving ideas. says the Wash
ington Star. 1t consists Of running the
eyelet around and then cutting it from
end to end and buttonholing it. making
the stitches as deep as those upon the
usual buttonhole but reversing the
stitch so that the edge stitches back
upon the material instead Of around
the open edge Of the eyelet. It is about
one-hfth as hard to do as the usual
way. and the difference in length Of
time Is even more marked
