Suggestions for the Housewife.
For sting of poisonous insect wash
woundewith salt or soda water.
Insects like neither salt nor alum, and
enough adheres to the carpet to keep
them away. q
Cutting onions, turnips and carrots
across the fbre makes them more ten
der when cooked.
To SINCE chickens hold them over a
saucer of burning alcohol. It does not
leave SCOT on the flesh.
Slight stains can be removed from
black cloth by rubbing with a freshly
cut raw potato, wiping with a clean
cloth.
Chicken salad Is delicious If mixed
with small pieces Of green pepper and
m~ayonnaise. Press the meat into pep
per cases.
Burning oil is spread by water. To
extinguish it throw down -four, sand
or earth. The idea is to prevent the
oil spreading.
! A cloth, wrung out of hot vinegar
and water and laid on the forehead as
hot as can be borne, will often relieve
a headache.
Don't forget to send lemon or an
acid sauce around with the fish, for
without this IVORY addition even the
finest shad is as nothing.

water may be used only very sparingly,

II there is a sensation of burning dur
ing the day the best way to treat 1t is to
mix an ounce of benzolnated oxide of
zinc ointment with two drains of strong
spirits of camphor. This should be lib
orally applied and allowed to remain
on. 1t is extremely soothing and
bleaching. IL used in the morning occa-
sionally as a substitute for the creams
given, and always at night on the
hands, 1t will be decidedly beneficial.
Whenever possible a thick veil should
be worn over the face In summer 1t is
! out of the question to do this, however,

of cream and powder must be rubbed

1 Louis, the Trail at Portland and the Warpath at Jamestown. It's half mile of length will be lined with more than thirty clean first class, new attractions many of which have been arranged for by Director of Concessions, A. w. l Lewis.
 To the right of the main entrance to the exposition, the approach to the en- trace of the Pay Streak will begin. This approach will be in the form of exact reproductions of famous totem poles, the one in Pioneer Square, Seattle, having a place of hon. or. There will be line of six on each side of the avenue, each pole thirty feet apart. BHtween the poles will be stretched ropes of garlands, from which will be suspended Japanese laterns. The reproduction of the Alaskan natiye's family tree will be thirty feet high and highly chromatic. At night the eyes and grinning mouths will be illuminated by electric lights, which will produce an odd effect.
 The approach will lead up to the main portal of the Pay Streak. As tho visitor passeS along between the Totem poles his eyes will meet the grand archway. This Is an original design design by Champney. It will be com bination of different kinds of arch- itecture. Eight tall totem pole col. umns will support the arohway, which will carry an ornamental screen with the official seal of the exposition in bright colors in the center. The pag- oda roof will be what might be termed "Jap- Alaskan" in style of architecture, explains Champney who coined the word. The curved roof of the pagods will be happy medium between the Japanese and Chinese styles of pagoda roofs. The main frieze over the arch. way will be swaDtika fret, the Alaskan good luck symbol.
 Between the outside columns of to. tenn poles will be seated figure on pedestal. On one side the figure will represent an Oriental idol, while on the other the figure will represent @ native Alaskan god. Around the sreh. way will be laid out typical Japan. ese garden, with dwarfed plants, wist- erin vines etc.
 The management of tho exposition is much pleased with the design and thinks 1t will make one of the artistic hits of the fair. Itis conceded by all experienced exposition men that no other world's fair ever had such an ornamental entrance to It's amusement boulevard.
 The Pay Streak will run from near the main entrance to Lake Union, which laps the exposition grounds on the west, where 1t will terminate in an ornate boat landing, from which the grand esplanade will extend over the water along the lskeshore toward ehe east and Lake Washington, which borders the grounds on that side.
