To Clean Mating

To clean mating, sweep it twice
first with a stiff broom, working along
the grain of the straw, then cross-wise
with a soft broom dipped in warm wa
ter, and shaken very dry. Dissolve
handful Of salt in big pail Of tepid
water, and wash the mating quickly
with it, rinsing with clean water This
brightens all sorts Of colored mating,
and also saves it in a measure from
fading.
Very light mating is best washed
after sweeping, with weak borax-Wa
ter, or, rather, with cloths wrung out
of it. Anything whatever stopped upon
a matted floor makes the last estate Of
it much worse than the first. Dust in
variably collects underneath, and, once
wet, shows through in ugly dark
splotches. Cover grease spots thickly
with prepared chalk wet with turpen-
tine, let the mixture remain for two
days, then brush off with a stiff
brush. If the spot is very big and
very greasy, put one-eighth as much
washing soda as chalk, and mix with
water to the thickness Of putty.
Litt1e-used mating, as in spare
chambers, or upper summer rooms,
should be swept very clean, then
wiped with a cloth wrung out Of sweet
milk Do this once a year; it keeps
the straw live, and to a degree plant
If the milk-wash is used in living
room, or on a piazza, follow it by 4
wping with very hot clear water, to
keep the floor from drawing flies.

Rest a Minute.

The wise woman will not fail to take a
few minutes for rest several times dur
ing even the busiest and most taxing
day. Indeed, it is on just such days
that she most needs to practice the
sweet and benefcent gospel Of relax
alton To relax-to let go the nerve,
brain and muscle strair1-fOr even sixty
seconds is a positive gain to the whole
system Complete relaxation and thor
ough rest is most easily obtained by ly-
ing down and unreservedly yielding
the support Of the body to the couch.
Thus to spend five or ten minutes IN
the middle of each day would enable
many a worn and weary hOuse-worker
to accomplish more with less fatigue
than is otherwise possible. The fore
going suggestion is SO remote from
what many an industrious woman con-
siders cher duty to her family,' as to
seem to her like theoretical nonsense.
Nevertheless it is body-and-brain- n-sav-
ing, good common sense. Duty to
oneself should lead a woman to take
measures to save health and strength
while there is still fund to draw upon.
For those who would feel that to lie
down in the daytime when they were
not sick. would be to brand thems elves
as "shift1ess," a few simple one-minute
exercises for relieving the strain OF
routine work are given.

Look Your Best

One of the great secrets of looking
ones best is to understand ones own
individuality. This can be cultivated in
many ways, the mere wearing OF appro-
pirate and suggestive garments is only
one out Of a multitude; but | cannot
avoid emphasizing the question of raj
ment now and again, because we are SO
powerfully affected by Our clothing. :
Every woman knows-and, l think, l
might say every man too-how much OF
their sedateness, aloofness, dignity and
se1f-respect is put away on Sunday
night with their best clothes, and how
Monday mornings worka-day attire
seems to bring with it fresh attitude
of mind Clothes exercise a powerful
and stimulating effect upon the imagi-
nation; we are such highly complex
creatures, compounded Of so infinite a
number of moods and lenses, yet able
to be dominated by the style and cut
Of coat.
Because Of this effect Of clothing up
on temperature it is most important tor
those who are desirous Of looking their
best to carefully determine what par
ticular traits in their personality they
wish to cultivate and which they would
suppress.
Having settled what outward sem
blance your personality is to wear, that
is to say, whether you will be slightly
frivolous person. a sedate and soulful
person, learned blue-stocking person,
or merely an ultra-fashionab1e person,
you plan your clothing accordingly.

RUSTY Nail Wound Remedy.

Every little while we read in the
papers that someone ran a rusty nail in
his foot Or other portion Of his body
and lockjaw resulted therefrom and
the patient died. If every person was
aware of a perfect remedy for such
wounds and would apply it, then such
reports would cease. The remedy if
simple, always at hand, can be applied
by anyone-what is better, it is infal--
lible 1t is simply to smoke the wound
or any wound that is bruised or inAam-
med, with a woolen cloth. Twen-
ty minutes in the smoke will take the
pain out Of the worst case Of int1amma-
ton arising from such wound Peo-
pie may sneer at this remedy as much
as they please, but when they are at
hicted with such wounds let them try it.

with the greatest difficulty that you
can get them to stand for a few min

Pineapple Recipes.

How to Instruct Children.

Teach the very little ones to always
say "P1ease" and ''Thank you" also
"Good night"and "Good morning."
These are the first lessons in courtesy
at home. Every infant is born with a
conscience, with an instinct for God
and desire for good. We must begin
early and strive to catch hold Of that
wonderful religious instinct which is
ir every heart If you wish to get a
child to do it's best, encourage rather
than discourage him. Encouragement
acts like a wet blanket and puts out
the fire of ambition most effectually in
the childish nature. Children ought to
be trained to be self-helpfu1, to know
how to do for themselves It is mis-
take to think that they must be watch
ed every moment and have a nurse
stand over them from morning TO
night. A healthy child is the better
for being alone portion of each day.

To Save Clippings.

A dozen large manila envelopes,
bound together along the lower edge
and provided with cord to tie them
together, makes the best sort Of a re-
ceptac1e for the preservation Of clip
pings. An outside cover OF paste
board neatly covered with linen or
plain colored cotton cloth makes the
book more attractive, and if each en-
ve1ope is labeled it is more convenient.
The labels may be Poetry, Art, Person

To Bake a Ham.

If it is an old ham it will be improved
by soaking for "a hours, changing the
water once. Then scrape and wash and
put it into a roasting pan with the skin
side downward. Pour over it a pint OF
vinegar or cider, tablespoon Of mus
tard and one Of mixed spices. Bake
until it is tender and then take off the
skin. Cover with grated crumbs and
sprinkle with brown sugar. Bake an
hour.

For deep frying put in thin slice Of
bread, and if it browns while you can

as croquettes. Use plenty Of fat and
always strain it carefully before putting

If you will pour scalding water over

The Greensburg Echo says:

We claim to be a Democrat.
To us democracy is as a religion.
1t would be impossible to change
our belief in the fundamental
principles of democracy as they
were taught and practiced by
Jefferson and Jackson, nor could
we be honest with ourself and to
our children to teach and advo-
cate any other doctrine; but JEFF
ferson and Jackson are not in
control of the party in this State,
and we do not feel that we can be
honest with ourself and quietly
submit to being bucked and gag
ged and made to serve a party
that has become as corrupt as
hell ITSELF"
This evidences strong feeling
and conviction, but in all candor,
it should be said that a party does
not become corrupt in a day.
When, may we ask our brother
of the Echo, did this corruption
begin, or rather when did he
disco er it? In the late cam
pa'gl, our brother was absolute
ly blind-for none is so blind as
he who will not see-as to the
state of affairs. He would not
see. He refused to hear. He
declined to investigate. 1t is a
pity that his change of feeling
should come too late to assist in
the crusade so fruitlessly waged
in the campaign.

There are a few more empty
houses in town than we like to
see. Stir up, every body, and
originate new industries to fill
those houses. At one time emp
ty houses were scarce. Now
there are several. One is too
many. These things should be
looked after, and Droperty-hold-
ers, tenants of the soil, should
make it their personal concern to
keep up the average of growth
and progression lest their own
holdings depreciate in value.
These towns need more small in
dustries to attract and hold
working people.
