How to Treat Waxed Floors.

Those who have waxed floors in
their dwellings know, according to In
doors and Out, how invaluable turpen-
tine is in cleaning them. With sand
paper or steel wool, dipped in turpen-
tine, the blacklist coating, which is apt
to accumulate in winter ON waxed
floors not frequently polished, can be
easily and quickly removed, and a
washing with turpentine does much to
brighten up any waxed floor prepara-
tory to the application of light fresh
coat Of wax and polishing with the
weighted brush AS with all other
painters materials, however, turpen-
tine Is shamefully adulterated, and
care must be taken to get only the
best and purest from some thoroughly
reliable dealer. The usual adulter-
ant is cheap benzine, and as benzine
turns good floor wax dirty white tur-
pentine SO adulterated has an injurious
effect on the floor. The floor wakes"
made with talfow show less effect
from adulterated turpentine, but the
wise householder will use only those
floor wakes which are made with bees
wax and turpentine, with little par
ATTN, but no tallow.

CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA.
How This Distressing Ailmcat May
Be Banished Without Drugs.

How This Distressing Ailmcat May
Be Banished Without Drugs.
1t is amazing that so common a diff
ficulty as dyspepsia should be so little
understood by the general public and
that it's remedy should be so hard to
find. But it can be cured, and without
any marvellous nostrums, by observing
a few important rules Of health, says
the Kansas City Times. The dyspep-
tic must first fix in his mind the fact
that his ailment is the result of bad
habits of eating and living and that
these must be changed and that drugs
will do him no good. He must begin
by avoiding all starchy foods, as pota-
toes, rice, oatmeal, beans, etc. Meats,
soft boiled eggs, milk toast, zwieback,
etc., are the best foods for avoiding
fermentation and the gas that causes
dyspepsia pains. In serious cases but
termilk is one of the best dependen-
cies. Another is boiled milk with a
slight addition of limewater. Either
of these will enable the most chronic
dyspeptic to procure some sustenance
without serious distress.
He should drink freely Of hot water.
at least two quarts day, always tax
ing a glass half an hour before meal
time. He should not crowd his meals
close together, as with an impaired
digestion it is often best to have the
meals six or seven hours or more
apart The rule to be followed is that
a new meal should not be eaten until
the previous one is digested or out of
the way and the stomach has had
little rest, and there must be further
rest after eating.
1t is absolutely essential to eat slow
ly and chew with the greatest thor
oughness. Complete chewing in the
mouth, permitting no washing down
with coffee or tea, salivates the food
it goes into the stomach, and persis-
tence will put good flesh on any lean
dyspeptic There Is theory that when
solid food Is chewed In the mouth to
an absolute pulp that the organs In
the back Of the mouth exercise q selec-
tive action and send to the stomach
only that which is fitted to be convert
ed into blood and tissue, thus relieving
the digestive organs Of handling the
waste. Whether or not this Is correct
Is for the science of the future to de-
termfne. Certain 1t Is that nature gave
us grinding teeth for the purpose of
chewing our food and never intended
that we should swallow it unchewed,
as do those animals having more than
one stomach.

How to Care For the Piano.

A piano Is as sensitive to cold and
heat as an invalid, SO 1t must not be
put too near a fire or the wood Is
drawn by the heat Never leave it near
an open window If it is raining or this
will rust the wires and mold the In
side. Such an instrument should not
be put too close to a wall or the sound
will be deadened, and it should be kept
closed when not In use. The keys
should be busted daily with an old silk
handkerchief. If they become yellow
from neglect, rub them with lemon
juice and little whiting Do not let
the dust fall between the keys.
