HINTS ON HOW TO DARN.
VIII Be Found Very Helpful to the
Busy Housewife.

The darning of narrow lace edges
is a most difficult matter.
IL the tear is a serious one the
edges of the lace can be basted upon
the selvages of the muslin and placed
in the embroidery hoop.
Care must be taken not to sew into
the muslin.
III the edge is destroyed entirely or
in part, the lace may be basted upon
white letter paper, and stitched sever
al times to form a new edge and
cross.threads stitched to hold this
edge in place. then the paper pulled
away and the remaining stitches put
In on the machine or by hand
Hamburg edgings and. insertions can
be darned in the same way. They
should preferably be free of starch
and smoothly ironed to facilitate per-
feet work.
White mosquito netting that has
been washed will be found to give q
good foundation for darning coarsely
woven underwear on the machine and
soft black mosquito netting should be
basted under the holes in the knees
Of boys stockings.
1t should be basted directly across
the hole and the machine darning be
done directly upon it. The rough
edges and threads can afterward be
trimmed away.
When you are through darning upon
the machine, do not forget to replace
the pressure on the pressure foot and
the stitch action to the feed, other
wise you may be much puzzled the
next time you go to the machine and
wonder why it won't make stitch

To Serve Ices.

Get paper watermelon mold, which
will cost about 25 cents, and line it
throughout with melted paraffin so
that the moisture will not ruin the
mold. Line this slightly with green
ice cream, then put in a layer of white
ice cream. Have pink lemonade par
TALLY frozen and fill the mold. Place
in the half frozen ice handful of
soaked black currants which will re-
semble watermelon seeds. Place this
where it will freeze. When placed on
the table, stand few black penny
dolls in the ice. 1t is a suggestion
which can be reserved for future use
when the genuine watermelon shells
can be used for the purpose, taking
the place of the paper mold.

Hem the Ends of a Veil.

AS rule it is no easy matter to
hem a veil. as the flimsy ends have
a most provoking way of slipping out
of the fingers and from under the
needle. 1t is really easy, however, II
done in this manner: Basic an inch
hem in each end of the veil and then
haste a piece of paper under the hens
When this is done, stitch the hens on
the sewing machine through the pa
ner. The paper then may be carefully
torn off. The veil should be pressed
with a warm iron and special atten'
ton given to the hens,

THREE CURES OF ECZEMA.
Woman Tells Of Her Brother's Terrible
Sutferng-TWo Babies Also Cured
-Cuticura invaluable.

"My brother had eczema three diff
ferent summers. Each summer it came
out between his shoulders and down
his back, and he said his suffering
was terrible. When it came on the
third summer, he bought box of
Cuticura Ointment and gave it a faith
full trial. Soon he began to feel better
and he cured himself entirely of &C.
zema with Cuticura. A lady in In
diana heard of how my daughter,
Mrs Miller, had cured her little son
of terrible eczema by the Cuticura
Remedies. This lady's little one had
the eczema so badly that they thought
they would lose it. She used Cuti-
cura Remedies and they cured her
child entirely, and the disease never
came back. Mrs Sarah E. Lusk, Cold

ECONOMY CARRIED TOO FAR.
Old Mans Thrift That Led Him Into
Ridiculous Action.

President ]. G.. Schurman of Cornell
was discussing elective college
courses, of which in the freshman and
sophomore years, he dlsapproves.
"a freshman of 16 or H." said Pres
ident Schurman, 'ls too young TO
choose for himself the courses best
for him. His mind is not mature
enough. 1t will make mistakes.
I'm its immaturity, its proneness to
error. II is like the mind of an old
man in my native Freetown. He,
though old. was mentally undeveloped,
and saw nothing wrong or ridiculous
in piece OF economy that he put in
practice in the cemetery.
"The old man had lost four wives,
and desired to erect for each a head
stone. with an inscription commemora
tive of her wifely virtues.
"But Inscriptions. he found. were
very expensive. He economical in
this way:
"He had the Christian name OF each
wife cut on a small stone above her
grave-"Emma." MARY" Hester,
Edith" Under each name a hant
pointed to large stone in the cen
ter of the lot. and under each hant
were the words;
"'For epitaph see large stone.'"

Removing Bruises from Furniture

If the bruise is slight soak the
place in warm water, and hold red
hot poker near the surface of the
wood. keeping it constantly wet until
the bruise disappears. This will oc'
cur in few moments. If the bruise
is large, an actual dent, wet the place
with warm water as before directed.
Then take a piece of brown paper,
fold it six or seven times, soak in
warm water and place over the spot.
Against the paper place a hot fiat
iron, keeping it there until the mois-
ture has evaporated. This process
should be repeated until the surface
is again level.-Suburban Life.

Examiners Are Refused Payment

The deputy examiners who conducted the teachers examina-
tions last January are finding that public service is not the safest
and surest means of gaining a livelihood in Nevada, and it is prob
able that no further teachers examinations will be held until some
means is provided for paying these people for services rendered.
The law as it now stands is as follows
"An examinations for teachers certificates shall be conducted
by deputy examiners, who shall act under the authority of the State
Board Of Education"
\ \ \ deputy examiners other than the Deputy Superintend-
ents of Public instruction shall receive a compensation of SIS a day,
to be paid as other claims out of the State General Fund"
Attorney General r. G. Stoddard has advised State Superin-
Ring that, since no appropriation was made for the specific
purpose of paying the deputy examiners. it is his duty to refuse the
payment of their vouchers. This leaves Mr. Ring in a very peculiar
predicament. He appointed these examiners under the authority Of
a specific duty imposed upon him by law, and now because that
same law is construed by the Attorney General as being weak in its
terms, or. because the Legislature failed to set aside a specific part
of the fund from which payment is to be made, for the purpose
stated in this law, MI. Ring must now refuse to authorize the pay
ment of the examiners for services rendered.
Instances of this sort cause the layman to throw up both hands
in utter helplessness and to exclaim "How exceeding intricate IS
the law, and how deeply learned the interpreters thereof!
However, since no one seems to be able to pass the examina-
tons, and since the schools ar not suffering from lack OF teachers
because of temporary certificates issued by the State Board OF Edu-
cation, it may be just as well that no further examinations be held.
