are bigger towns in this section, but

HOW TO TEST LINsEED OIL

There is nothing that will make
paint go wrong on the house more
quickly than poor oil. 1t is as bad in
its way as authorizations in the white
lead. Petroleum oil cheapeners may
be detected by placing drop of the oil
on a black painted surface. If one sees
the characteristic iridescence or play
of colors which kerosene exhibits, it
is evidence OF adulteration. Corn and
fish oil can be detected by the smell.
Adulteration in white lead can best
be discovered by the use of a blow
pipe, which National Lead Company
will send with instructions free to
anyone interested in paint Address,

Building, New York.

CARING FOR DISH CLOTHS.
How One Young Housekeeper Solved
Kitchen Problem.

Dish rags are the great difficulty that
beset the careful housekeeper in her
efforts TO keep clean and tidy kitch-
en-. They are drying on the hook and
hanging on the sink, and somehow a
towel used for pots and pans is always
damp. Then time must be taken from
the general work 10 wash them out
and dry them, and altogether they are
most extremely annoying
All these things and more. too, were
discovered by careful young house
fSeper, SO she arranged to have dish
in the outer kitchen filled with good
clear water and some washing soda,
and into this mixture the cloths were
dropped Immediately after using and
there they were left till evening, when
they were hung up where they might
dry over night.
OF course, enough towels must be on
hand, so that the same one need not
be used more than once day, but
at least they are always clean and the
kitchen is always in order.

THE GREAT MANS OCCUPATION.
Nothing Very Serious in His Mind
Just at That Moment.

The multi-millionaire was being
shaved. AS he lay back in his chair,
looking upward, his grave face gave
the impression that he was in deep
study.
All" whispered one OF the barber
shop loiterers, I'll wager dollar
against a toothpick that he is think
ing of railroad mergers"
NO" said another. he is thinking
about bear raids in Wall street"
bet he is pondering over the re-
bate system" echoed third.
I'll ask him.
Walking over to the chair, he said
politely
BEG your pardon. sir, but to settle
an argument, would you kindly tell us
what mighty question you are study
ing over?"
The millionaire turned his
lathered face around and smiled. 81

PREPARATION OF GOOD SOUP.
Care in Making the Stock is the First
Essential.

No matter how plain and simple a
dinner may be soup adds TO it. Poor
soup is often served because too little
attention is paid to il. First OF all
there must be good material TO start
with. Cold water should always be
used where meat is cooked, in order
to draw ont the juice. Salt must
never be added until the soup is done.
Soup should simmer on the back OF
the stove instead of boiling rapidly.
When the meat is well cooked, strain,
add salt and set in cold place. Skim
off all grease from the surface the
next day and the stock is ready for
use. Clear soups are never considered
as wholesome as others. There are u
great variety of vegetable, meat and
cream soups which are appetizing.
Cream of tomato, celery and aspara-
gus, are particularly good.
A soup kettle where every bone or
scrap of meat left over, is thrown, is
considered very essential in many
households, especially where soup is
served every day. One or two table
spoOnfuls OF cold boiled rice is an ad-
dition to any ordinary soup, especial
ly chicken or mutton broth. Be care
full that the soup is never greasy. If
the stock stands over night all bits OF
grease can be removed. A cupful of
tomatoes tlavors a soup made OF stock.
In making good soup bay leaves, cell
cry, parsley, carrots, onions, whole
cloves and other herbs or vegetables
are excellent for flavoring. Beans
and peas make delicious soup. An ex-
cellent stock for soup is made by
cooking a knuckle of veal and a beef
bone in cold water with six potatoes,
five carrots, and four tiny onions on
the back of the stove for day or
longer, then strain and set away.

To Remove Stains.

To remove paint from glass wet the
spot with strong liquiG ammonia, be-
ing careful not to let the ammonia
run down on the window paint or var
nish. After two or three applications
scrape gently with piece of soft
wood. then rub with paper wet with
ammonia.
Kerosene stains can be removed
with Fullers earth. Cover the stain
with a thick layer of hot Fullers
earth. let remain for "a hours, then
brush off.

Pants for the Orphans.

There is praseworthy custom In
some families of sending all the
pants" that the boys have gone
through. wholly or in part, to the asy-
lum for orphans. and as the orphans
never mind a hole more or less. they
are glad to get the garments. In one
OF these families few days ago Oc-
Cured little incident bearing on this
laudable custom Fred was engaged
in that extremely fascinating. but
rather dangerous, sport of sliding
down the banisters
What are YOU doing there, Fred?"
asked mamma
Making pants for the poor little
orphans" answered Fred.

Brain and Nerves Restored by Grape
Nuts Food.

The number of persons whose all
ments were such that no other food
could be retained at all, is large and
reports are on the increase.

peDsia, finding no food that did not
distress me-" writes Wis. lady. Il

ually growing weaker until L could
leave my bed only a short while at a
time, and became unable to speak
aloud
Three years ago / was attracted by
an article on Grape-Nuts and decided
to try il.
My stomach was so weak / could
not take cream, but used Grape Nuts
with milk and lime water. 1t helped
me from the first, building up my sys-
TEN in a manner most astonishing to
the friends who had thought my re-
covery impossible.
Soon | was able to take Crane
Nuts and cream for breakfast. and
lunch at night, with an egg and Grape
Nuts for dinner.
Il am now able to eat fruit, meat
and nearly all vegetables for, dinner,
but fondly continue Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper.
AT the time of beginning Grape
Nuts I could scarcely speak SEN

strengthened that I no longer have

SKIPPING IN THE JUNGLE.
How Cured sweeny and FistuIa.

II want TO tell you how l saved one
of our horses that had a fistula. We
had the horse doctor out and he said
it was>so bad that he did not think he
could cure it, and did not come again.
Then we tried Sloans Liniment and
it cured it up nicely.
'One day last spring was blowing
for neighbor who had horse with
! sweeny, and told him about Sloan's
Linjment and he had me get a bottle
for him. and il cured his horse all
right, and he goes off now like a colt.
I'VE had a horse that had sweeny
awfully bad and we thought it was
never going 10 be any good, but we
used Sloans Liniment and it cured it
up nicely. told another neighbor
about it and he said it was the best
LiDiment he ever used.
I'VE are using Sloan's Sure Collie
Cure and We think it IS all right"
