of one sickroom frequently infects a
whole neighborhood.
Typhoid still kills 10000 Americans

1t is. indeed, one of the maladies GER

medicine. Hydrophobia. diphtheria and
smallpox have been conquered, and tu-
bercuiosis is yielding. Next on the list
is typhoid. Vaccines will prevent il
and serums, at no distant day, will
probably take the place of the hard

likely, the civilized white man who

WHEN WASHING CLOTH SKIRTS.
Good Results, With No Harm to Mate.
rial Are AttainabIe.

A black and white shepherd check,
Atwood, plated skirt, which was hope
lessly soiled and badly spotted, was
successfully cleaned by immersing at
night in a bath-tub of cold water, to
which had been added a small cake of
ivory soap, first shaved, cooked to a
Jelly in boiling water and two tea
spoonfuls of borax. Next morning
this water, which was very dirty, was
drawn off, and the skirt was soused
up and down in clean, clear water of
same temperature. This was drawn
of and followed by two more rinse
waters, taking care to have all Of
same temperature. No rubbing. The
skirt was then hung out of doors on
the line without Wringing at all, in
a warm, sunny place, and in six hours
was perfectly dry, and so smooth as
to scarcely need pressing. 1t was
pressed under damp cloth, however,
and looked like new.
This method is equally successful
with white woolen materials. Moth
ing will shrink in the least, but some
colors will fade and run even in cold
soapsuds, and one should try piece
before washing anything about which
there is any uncertainty.

For the Table.

In stead of vases or bowls for flow
ers that are to ornament the. dinner
table the rustic pieces made of silver
are pretty, as we'll as practical. These
are made in various shapes and
forms, and are really several small
vases rising from the same base, the
whole made to represent a cluster
Of branches from tree.
The rough bark is we'll reproduced
in the silver and the different little
branches are, Of course, of irregular
heights and of different sizes.
The effect when each branch or,
rather, vase, is filled with long
stemmed flowers is extremely beauti-
full and the center-piece is delicate
and dainty in appearance, without
seeming small or insignificant.

Never Overlooked q Chance,

When Bishop Talbot, now Of the
central Pennsylvania diocese, was
''the cowboy bishop" of Idaho and
Wyoming he never overlooked an op-
portunity Of securing contributions
for the missionary work in which he
took such delight. On one occasion,
while attending meeting OF church
dignitaries in St. Paul, he was chatting
with some other clergymen on the
steps of his hotel when several no.
boes came along One Of them ap-
preached and asked for aid. Bishop
Talbot took him aside and after q
short but earnest conversation the
other tramps saw something pass
from hand to hand. What did he
give you?" asked the other hoboes
when they all started away. Didn't
give me nothing" was the disgusted
reply. II gave him a dollar for his
blamed new cathedral in Laramie"

German Turkey stuffinc,

An old recipe for stufing turkey is
as follows: Take stale white bread
slice it very thin and pour as much
boiling milk over it as will soften it;
the dryer it is the better; cover it
close; cut small onicn very fine anG
boil it in butter until it is soft; then
beat five eggs, leaving out two whites
and stir them into the hot butter and
onion until they are a little hardened
mash the bread very fine and mix all
together with pepper. salt and little
parsley chopped fine; put this mixture
into the turkey with spoon; the
quantity is for small turkey.
The allowance of eggs seems large
in modern ideas, but our great-graNd
mothers were good cooks and eggs
were plentiful.

To pfsinfeet Book.

To disinfect a book which has been
in the sick room wash the cover with
some good purifier and put the book
out in the open air for one day, where
the sun can beat down upon it with
all force. One of the best disinfect-
ants is the black or crude carbolic
acid. For each drain, basin or bath
tub, pour down one tablespoonful,
then with boiling water cleanse out
the pipe. In all cases of sewer gas
this will prove an excellent purifier
and give to any house or apartment a
healthy odor. This hint is especially
intended for those who live in town,
but country dwellers will find it use
full in case of the kitchen sink pipe,
etc.

surro Drivers Carry Candles.

In Mexico all vehicles, be they
handcart automobile, or anything be-
tween, must carry a light at night
This rule or law is rigidly enforced
Even the drivers of the poor little
burro or mule carts, on their two
wheels, must carry light.
So, rather than buy lanterns, which
cost money, they take a dip candle,
and wrapping it in a bit of newspa'
per to shield it from the wind, carry
it in their left hand as they drive
along homeward from work after
evening has fallen. The effect is
striking, as the light, falling strongly
on the Indian driver, throws the face
of the man into strong relief against
the darkness.

Cupid Cakes.

Take three eggs and their weight in
butter, in sugar and in flour; then
cream the butter and sugar until very
light and creamy; add one-fourth tea.
spoonful of salt and and one-half each
teaspoonful of vanilla and almond ex.
tracts; then add the eggs one at a
time and beat five minutes between
each addition; then add all the flour,
folding it in lightly; pour the mixture
into a creased pan, filling with the
batter three-quarters full and using a
shallow sheet pan. Bake slowly for
about 80 minutes or until clean
straw placed in the center will come
out without the batter adhering to it.
Let the cake become cool after remov'
ing it from the pan; then with a heart,
shaped cutter form small cakes as IL
lustrated, dipping them into boiled
icing or melted fondant colored pink
with vegetable coloring and favored
with strawberry Or rose On each
cake place candied cherry imPaled
onto a small metal dart.

Tie best quality of body Brussels

cheaper tapestry carpets.

Eet may cost half dollar more per

Nothing is more unsatisfactory than
loosely woven straw mating.
A fine mating will last several
years or more with constant wear If
fine, very little dust will sift through,
and the strands do not pull apart as
they do in the cheaper grades.
Rugs fo- the center of the room can

Japanese cotton rugs are very
pretty and durable. They are good

But all officers, as well as men, had

that he would have to place himself
in the hands of the examining doctors

Now, Maj. Whipple, while man Of

there is nothing better nor safer than
that old family remedy, Brandreth's s
