BEST USE OF DlsiNFECTAETs.
Knowledge That Every Good House
keeper Should Have.

Every household needs disinfecting,
and the proper use of the ordinary de-
odorizers is knowledge that every
good housekeeper should have. Not
only do these useful things make
house pleasanter to live in, but they
also make it healthful. So many good
disinfectants are on the market at the
present time that there is a VIDE
choice for the careful woman. Ihey
are classed under three headings:
Disinfectants which purify the Wa
ter. air. clothes, ETC.; antiseptics that
arrest putrefaction, and deodorizers
that destroy disagreeable smells,
Heat, of course, Is a powerful dlslh-
fectant, and boiling water may be USED
when it is practicable and possible 10

King Amadeus Respected.
The SpanIards are perhaps the
proudest nation in Europe, and the
people are imbued with a sense Of per
/ sonal dignity which is carried often

/ ful manner in which King Amadeus
/ flung aside his scepter and dofed his
| crown because he could not reconcile
his notions OF honor and chivalry with
theirs created a profound impression
among them. Although he was never
! loved 1t Is doubtful whether Spain
ever had ruler more deeply and uni
versally respected
The exking was the only prince OF
the blood Of his day who could claim
the tue OF batte-scarred veteran
