Twice Dismembered.

Some years ago, says Representa-,
tive Champ Cark. he was chatting
with a number Of senators from the
south in the senate cloak room. when
Butler Of South Carolina, whom
Clark then saw for the first time,
came in. After introduction to sew
cral new senator's and representa-
tlvcs Senator Butler exchanged a
few remarks with them and then left
the room.
One of the Mississippi senator's
turned to Clark, saying: "To look at
Butler you'd never suspect he wore a
wooden leg, would you?'
"No" exclaimed Mr.. Clark, sur
priscd.
"Fact!' continued the other.
' Butler was an officer in the Confcd.
crate army, as you know. Tt was not
Ion" before he had a leg shot off.
Before leaving hospital he was sup
piled with an artificial leg. Eventual
ly he again went to the front, and
this time bit Of shell blew his arti-
fetal member to pieces. Just think,

tor. eff Butler had been Union
officer he would be drawing doub-
lc pension from the government. .

with cold water, let stand several
hours and when soft dissolve over the
fire in the double pot. This will give
you perfect glue.
One of the simplest pieces of furni-
ture to repair and do over is mirror
frame. A fiat one is even less trouble
than curved molding. If it is an old
frame and requires thorough over
hauling begin by removing the old
varnisn and eventually get right down
to the wood. There is a varnish re-
mover sold for this purpose, and two
or three applications of this. each one
being wiped dry or scraped off before
the next coat is applied, will soon re-
move every evidence of the old var
nish. When 1t is necessary to scrape
smooth surfaces or parts that work
easier than with the liquid remover a
steel scraper made to fit the shape of
the hand will get rid Of all traces of
the old covering.
Have the wood that is to be scraped
thoroughly clean and then see If any
blemishes need filing up either with
cement or with a new piece of wood.
Any rough or broken places can then
be taken out by cutting with a chisel.
Be very careful to leave the edge of
the veneer or the wood slanting, so
that when the new section is inserted
it can be slanted In the opposite way
and the two neatly dovetailed together.

veneer have been scraped off. Holes
that are too small to require wood or
veneer filing can be cleverly concealed
by cement, material that comes espe-
cially for this purpose and can be
bought in mahogany color or in almost
any shade of wood. Cheap furniture
repairers use much more of this tinted
cement than they do of wood or veneer,
and though the deception Is covered up
very cleverly at first by the varnish
and polish it soon begins to show in
ugly streaks and patches.
The cement is melted first and the
hole filed, then the surface rubbed
smooth, and after the filing has dried
the frame or piece of wood is ready for
the varnish. To apply the varnish use
a clean brush which has no loose hairs,
dip it into the pot of varnish and give
the frame regular coat. Leave long
enough to dry and then apply another,
being careful in each coat to pass the
brush twice over the surface in each
spit and always in the same direction.
An ordinary mahogany frame, chair
arm or any fiat piece of furniture usu-
ally requires about six coats OF var
nish, one applied after the other Let
each dry thoroughly. When ii is quite
hard (you can tell by pressing your
knuckles on it-soft varnish will show
a blemish) rub the entire surface with
the fingers to get rid of streaks and

in the first principles Of scraping,

come chipped at the edge or a

would mean quite a little expenditure
Of money to have any one of these
restorations made because 1T is almost
always necessary to do over the entire
article even when the blemish Is hard

1t is for such cases that few pracu-
cal hints are offered, with suggestions
on how to carry on the work more
thoroughly If ones interest goes to
that extent.
Your tools are the first important
point, and you can get a set costing
500 or you can manage fairly well
with a few necessary ones costing one
tenth this amount, including a carpen-
ter's bench, If there is room in the
amateur workshop for one. 1t is more
convenient to have one; in fact. certain
kinds of cabinet work can not be done

fectly as possible with the grain OF
the original veneer.
Take the piece of veneer. cut to fit
the place 1t Is destined to fill, match 1t
carefully and see that all the edges are
trim and even; then glue both the
frame itself where the veneer is to go
and the new piece OF veneer; lay this
in place and press down so that any
bubbles will be got rid of and any un-
necessary glue will be pressed up be-

/. Squash GIace

Henrietta E. Rubsnm, 50 South Eleventh
street, San Jose, Cal.
A simple but very delicious preserve
or glace can be made from the seal
loped summer squash. Take one that
has been allowed to remain on the
vine until the she'll has become very
firm and hard and the flesh yellow. For
five pounds of squash thinly sliced, take
three pounds of sugar, one lemon thinly
sliced and the juice of another. Make
thick syrup and let the squash boil
slowly for about two hours, or until 1T
has become transparent and the juice
rich syrup. Remove from the fire
and bottle. To vary the flavor, pre-
served ginger can be used instead of
the rind of the lemon. This makes an
excellent sweetmeat If spread to dry
on plates, and it can also be. used in
cakes in place of citron.
