he said. In fact, we are all kiono-

How to Wash Doeskin Gloves.

Nothing is so economical for ordi-
nary wear as white doeskin gloves.
for they last well and wash almost IN
endingly, but their success lies in the
secret of careful washing The gloves
should be put in warm water, not too
warm, and gently rubbed with prim-
rose soap; take each glove singly and
soap it into ball in the palm of the
hand, and rinse by gently shaking
in the water. When the rinsing is
we'll accomplished soap them again,
and then, without being rinsed,
squeeze them until all the water has
run out. Straighten the gloves, don't
pull them, and hang to dry where
there is current of air; do not put
them near a fire. The drying takes
rather a long time, and at first the
gloves look spoiled, says Home Notes.
But they are a real success when
once dry, and they must be brisklv
rubbed together to get rid of the stiff.
ness; then they are ready to wear and
"as good as new"

CLEAN UP
The City From the Two Petitions,
Before The Summer Sun Makes
Life Uncomfortable.

Would it not be wise for our city
dads to appoint some one to make
periodic examinations of our city
and direct the removal OF all refuse
matter that might be injurious to
health. Also to appoint garbage
hauler. Then should owners re-
fuse to abate the nuisance the city
could do so and charge the expense
up to the property. This method
would lay the responsibility Of
cleanliness upon the owners where
it should righttully rest. The city
will be cleansed and purified by it,
and no more cost would be added.

NEED GREAT CARE
TO KEEP BRUSHES AND COMBS
I'M CONDITION.
HeaIthfuness of the Hair and Scalp
Depends on This-Many Varie-
ties from Which to Make
a Choice.

Extreme care should be taken in the
selection of hair brushes and of combs,
not from desire for cleanliness alone,
but in order that the hair and scalp
may be kept in proper condition by
Immaculate brushes of the proper kind.
1t is wise to keep several brushes of
different lengths and stiffness, as we'll
as thickness of bristle-by thickness
is meant the number of bristles to the
half-inch of back
Among stiff brushes is one cheap in
price, having stiff black bristles set
in rubber back, the whole of course
being set in wood This Variety is
made in different sizes and lengths of
bristles-in some two bristles are set
in single opening, while others have
only one bristle in an opening. The
bristles are also quite distance apart,
making this brush especially desirable
in Strengthening out tangled hair with
out tearing it, and also penetrating
thick hair and reaching the scalp
The rubber back into which the
bristles are set being flexible, it moves
with the bristles, and while they are
held straight up and down they are
flexible and go through the hair with
out the stiff, unpleasant feeling of
bristles in still frames. Ther are
properly cleaned by dipping the
brlstles in a weak solution of mild
soap and water and allowing them to
drain with the bristles down on
bath towel
1t is best to have two of these
brushes, and they can be used to brush
and cleans each other. AS most peo-
pie know, all brushes may have the
dust beaten out of them by striking
then gently, bristles down, on hard
surface properly protected. All
brushes should, however, no matter
how carefully brushed and shaken, be
cleansed at least twice a week with
soap and water, and once a month
several drops Of ammonia should be
added to the water.
For use in putting the finishing
touches on the hair in the process of
making up ones coiffure, or in smooth
ing it after it is completed, a small
brush with softer bristles close together
is better. The so-called comb brush
is excellent for this. The small comb
brush is not wider than an ordinary
comb, not over an inch and quarter
wide, is pointed at the end, and is
most convenient in dressing the hair.
Combs, like brushes, vary. For
thick hair the large toothed combs
with wide spaces between the teeth
are the best, while for thin hair a me-
dunn comb is better. Fine-toothed
combs should never be used They
have sharp points and injure if they
do not actually scratch or cut the
scalp. The old-time fine tooth comb
has almost disappeared save in coup-
try towns. All combs should have
blunt teeth, and their only proper use
is to straighten the hair and in build
ing the couture. If the scalp is to be
operated on, ones finger tips or a
brush should be used.
The material of combs varies ac.
cording to ones fancy, but for prac-
tlcal use combs should be selected that
may be washed as often as the brushes
and In the same manner

Clean Beds.

The neat housewife, who is dis.
tressed to see her pillows and mat
tresses turning yellow and becoming
soiled, should by all means indulge in
covers of unbleached muslin.
These should be cut so they fit
smoothly and can either have a turn
over piece at one end, which is
fastened with buttons and button
holes, or they can be sewed roughly
along one edge after they are put on.
The first way, while it may take a
little longer in the making, is much
more convenient to use, as the covers
should be washed frequently.
Some housekeepers have two sets of
covers for each mattress and pillow.

To Rid Place of Rats.

Put small quantity of copperas
into vessel of water and leave it in
a corner of the closet or near the rat
holes. 1t is well to place several YES
sells of the copperas in several parts
Of the room, and, if possible, shut the
doors and windows and leave the room
closed for "a hours. The rats will
either die or run away, and further
more, the air in the room will be

all odors. If it is not convenient to
close the room up leave the copperas
