TAKE YOUR WIFE'S ADVICE.
If you contemplate some important
step without having consulted your
wife-don'tl
Her intuitive insight may be worth
more than your deliberate reasoning.
Some one has said:
"When a man has toiled step by
step up a flight Of stairs he will be
sure to find a woman at the top, but
she will not be able to tell how she
got there"
A man comes up to a conclusion by
the slow steps of deliberate logic. In
stinctively the woman reaches it by a
single bound.
Especially is the normal, average
woman quick TO see the right or wrong
involved in a proposition. She jumps
over subtle distinctions and evasive
phrasing and lands on the firm ground
Of eternal righteousness.
Ethically every woman is a seer.
And especially clear are the eyes OF
a wife in any matter involving the
welfare or the good name Of her fam
fly.
Make your wife a close confidant in
all things. especially If she is a wom-
an Of character and not one Of the
social butterflies whose chief desire is
to show herself.
Your wife's counsel may sometimes
seem to be wrong. but events are apt
to justify it.
There was Victoria Colona. a strong
character Of history. Her husband
was a loyal friend Of the great Charles
V. At one time the former was Of
fered the crown Of Naples If he would
Join the league against Charles.
Though strongly tempted. he asked his
wife's advice. and she bade him spurn
the proposal
Not every wife would have refused
to be queen.
But most wives would.
Because the project meant base be-
4 trayal and treachery. and the true
heart of n woman is turned against
such baseness.
You should seek your wife's advice
because she is your best friend and a
competent and honest counselor.
Take no important step of any sort
without a conference with her. She
viii help to clear away difficulties and
may be able to suggest ways and
means that might not occur to you.

To Cleans, sw.ssers.

Use a good white wool soap and warm
water.
Make suds and let the sweater soak
in this for a few minutes.
Then pull It up and down gently but
continuously until the dirt is loosened.
In rinsing. always put little soap into
the water. It makes the wool so much
softer and whittier when 81 dries.
The sweater may not he hung up to dry
lest Il stretch out OF shape.
The best way TO guard against both
shrinking and stretching, is to move a
table or bench with wide top out I'm the
sun, cover Il with a white sheet to pro-
vide an absolutely clean surface, and lay
the sweater on that.
II can then be spread out in its proper

HOW TO DESTROY EXPLOSIVES
Precautions to be Taken With Cur.
powder and Nltrog ycerine.


Precautions to be Taken With Cur.
powder and NltrogIy gIycerine.
The best way to destroy ordinary
black gunpowder Is to throw In into
stream under conditions that pre-.
vent any harm coming to human be-
lngs or animals through the dlssoly-
ing of the saltpetre If no suitable
stream is available the gunpowder
may be stirred with water in tubs.
or the dry gunpowder may be poured
out on the ground in long thin line
and ignited with fuse at one end.
To destroy dynamite cartridges the
paper wrappings should be carefully
removed, the bare cartridges laid in
row with their ends in contact and
the first cartridge lgnlted with a fuse
without cap. Even with these pre-
cautions a simultaneous explosion of
he entire mass may occur, so that
It is wise to retire 70 safe distance
The row Of cartridges should be laid
pafallel win the wind and ignited at
the leeward end so that the flame will
be driven away from the mass.
Frozen dynamite should be handled
with special care, as It's combustion
Is peculiarly liable to assume an ex-
plosiye character. A small quantity
of dynamite may be destroyed by
throwing ii in very small bits into
an open fire, or the cartridges may
be exploded one by one In the open
air with fuses and caps.
Dynamite should never be thrown
INTO water as the ntroglycerlne
which 1t contains remains undissolved
and capable of doing mischief other
explosives which contain nltroglycer-
Inc should be treated in the SAME way
as dynamite.
Ammonium nitrate explosives may
be thrown in small fragments into an
open fire, or II they do not contain
nitroglycerine may be destroyed by
means of water Explosive caps
should be exploded singly with pieces
of fuse Scientific American.

MISS BARTON AND HER WORK.

Speaking Of Clara Barton, she is
still living at the age OF SS, ard makes
her home at Gleno Echo, near Wash
ington. Miss Barton has had singu-
larly Useful and interesting life, and
from the time she was 1G has lived
for the good of others. Possessed of
marvellous nervous strength, mex
haustlble energy, she burned her can
die at both ends and accomplished an
incalculable amount of work. with
her education and sympathies Il was
natural when the civil war broke out
that She should go to the front, and
/ she took her place there al time
when women were not permitted that
distinction, place she did not re-
linquish until the end Of the struggles.
She was active In the field, active in
hospital work, organizing and direct
Ing, training other people to help,
drumming up supplies doing every
thing In word, that strong, capable
hands found 10 do, and making a rep
utation for herself which Is known
sobriquet of the "angel of the battle
field" Her work subsequent to the
war was as important as II had been
during the civil strife. President Lin
coin appointed her to attend to the
correspondence relative to the prison
ers missing after the exchanges were
made a labor that was undertaken
with great, sympathy and love, and
which she carried on more successful
ly than perhaps anyone else could
have done. so that in the latter part
Of the COS she broke down entirely
and was forced to go TO Europe for a
much-needed rest. II was then that
she formed the connection with the
Red Cross which resulted in the
United States Joining that organiZa-
tion, but before It joined much per-
suading and much lobbying were nee
essary, as everyone who was in touch
with the doings of Congress ut that
time will remember.
For the work she has done for the
cause of humanity Miss Barton has
been decorIted by diplomas Of honor
from Germany, who bestowed upon
her the iron cross; from Baden, Aus
tria. Servia, Turkey Armenia Swift
