How to Remove calIous Spots.

Callous spots are most frequently
found on the soes of the feet. They
are due to pressure and friction and
often are decidedly painful and annoy
ing. As much Of them as is possible
should be rubbed away in the daily
bath, and what remains can often be
removed without any pain. whatever
by rubbing the spot with a piece of
toilet pumice while the callous is in
softened condition from the BATH An
other method of removing a callous is
to bind the spot up overnight with a
cloth saturated with crude petroleum
after the spot has been bathed and rub

How to Relieve Headaches.

As headache is one of the most COM
mon complaints among women, the
average woman cannot know of too
many cures for headache to resort to
in an emergency. Witch hazel is an
excellent cure for headache. Saturate
a cloth with witch hazel and apply it
to the part Of the head where the pain
is most felt and renew it as soon as
the cloth becomes dry. Headache that
is produced by an excessive flow of
blood to the head can often be cured
by this remedy when others have
failed. This is as speedy relief as is
known, as it more often than not will
bring relief in few minutes and sell

How to Clean SEWING Machines.


Sewing machines need to be given
personal attention. If the machine
works hard or squeaks, then you may
be sure it needs a thorough cleaning.
Remove the needle and shuttle and
give every joint and bearing in the ma
chine a generous bath of gasoline.
You must not have a lamp or fire
burning anywhere near this explosive
fluid. With the needle and shuttle still
out, turn the wheels briskly to allow
the gasoline to penetrate every part
Of the machine and to loosen and clean
out all old oil and CRIME After the
wheels have beea turned for minute
or so, wipe away all visible oil, grease
and dirt Cotton rags are the best for
wiping away the oil, for they absorb
the grease readily. It is necessary
that every drop of oil be removed
Now oil the parts with pure machine
oil and run the machine again for a
few minutes before reinserting the
needle and shuttle You will find after
this treatment that your machine is in
perfect temper and delight to work
with, so smoothly and easily will it
run
