IN THE REPAIR DEPARTMENT.
Best Ways Of Performing the impor
tant Work Of Mending.

Rents will look much better when
mended If they are attended to at
once, because the longer they are
left the more ragged the edge be-
comes.
Lay the garment right side down
and put the edges of the rent as close
together as possible. Cut piece OF
mending tissue rather larger than the
space that is torn and lay on top.
Take IA piece of thin wooden mate
rial the same size as the tissue and
as near the color of the cloth as pos
sible, lay this on top of the tissue and
when placed in exactly the right posi-
ton iron with hot iron until the
patch adheres to the garment.
The heat will cause the tissue to dis
solve, forming a sort of glue.
If the material is of lightweight
goods it will be best to use patch of
exactly the same goods, but if the ma
terial is heavy, such as is used in
mems suits or coats, lighter patch
will be very much better.
A clean cut in heavy materials may
be mended by putting the two edges
firmly together and basting them to a
piece. of paper on the right side.
Take a thread and insert the needle
about three-eighths OF an inch from
the edge and carry 1t between the
cloth to about half an inch the other
side of the cut and draw the thread
through; put the needle in where it
came out and carry it to the other
side aobut half an inch beyond the
edge in slightly slanting position.
Continue to do this until the whole
cut is darned. Be careful not to pull
too tight. Darn in the same way in
the opposite direction.
1t is difficult to use this method of
mending if the edges are the least bit
frayed, and on thin materials it must
be done with the greatest care, using
the finest thread and needle possible.
All darns must be pressed when fin
ished To do this, lay the right side
down on the ironing board and on the
wrong side lay damp cloth and iron
until perfectly dry.

HoUsEWoRk AND THE HANDS
How One Woman Does Her Own Work
and Cares for Her Hands.

One reason why Homework is so dis
tasteful to many women is because
of its effect upon the hands. Care will
save them.
l never cut fruit or vegetables dry,
with a dry knife and dry hands. All
pears, apples, potatoes, onions, tur-
nips and carrots should be covered
with water and cut with wet knife
and wet hands.
Onions may be peeled under a run
ming faucet, and all odor to the hands
avoided. Use no soap in bathing the
hands after cutting fruit or vegetables.
Backing kitchen range disfgures
ones hands. A stove that has not
been BACKED for three months and is
washed daily is as clean as a table
treated similarly, and a platter may
be heated upon its surface and placed
upon dainty table cloth without
smirching it. / never permit a maid
to soil my kitchen range with the vile,
black stuff which sends it's odor
through the house and drapes her
nails in mourning; and the cleanliness
of my hands, when doing my own
work, is of more Importance to me
than the appearance Of my range

THEIR DEGREES OF HAPPINE S.
Marital Relations Of Rural Postmas-
tiers Not All Serene.

The chief clerk of the post Office de-
partment at Washington recently sent
to all the postmasters in the country
a list of questions asking for certain
information, says the New York Sun,
to be used in the preparation of the
government Blue Book. One Of the
questions in the list was, What are
your marital relations?"
The object of this particular ques-
ton was to find out whether the post
masters are married, single, widowed
or divorced. But some Of the rural
postmasters did not understand, and
many answers were received in which
the persons addressed endeavored to
give a clear and lucid explanation of
the status of their married life. One
postmaster briefly stated that his do
nestle affairs were Fine and dandy"
Another, not so fortunate, replied:
Fairly middling," while third filled

Orc to Three at Whist.

The late Senator Hoar was extreme
ly fond of whist, which he played
with remarkable skill.
A friend says that the only time he
ever knew the usually placid and
genial man from Massachusetts, to be
absolutely impatient was when on
one occasion at whist the senator had
an unusually stupid partner. Notwith-
standing this handicap, the pair were
winning right along even against good
players.
In the middle OF one game, some
one paused behind the senator's chair
and asked, We'll, senator, how are
you getting on?"

COFFEE DRINKING
A Doctor Says it Weakens the Heart.


'In my opinion" says q well known
German physician, mo one can truth
fully say that coffee agrees with him,
as It has long since been proven that
caffeine, contained in coffee. is an in
furious, poisonous substance which
weakens and degenerates the heart
muscles.
For this reason the regular use Of
coffee, soon or late, causes condition
of undernourishment, which leads to
various kinds of organic disease.
Convinced of this fact, have often
sought for some healthful beverage to
use instead of coffee. At last / found
the thing desired in Postum. Having
had occasion TO forbid people using
coffee, whose hearts were affected,
have recommended Postum as n bev-
erage, since It is free from all injuri-
Gus or exciting substances. l know
this from results in my own family,
and among patients.
Hundreds of persons who now use
Postum in place Of coffee, are greatly
benefited thereby" There's Reason"
