cleaning soap will make the surface look

small piece of carpet and scrubbing 1t
with the soaped brush afterward wiping
with damp cloth and finally with a
dry one. This work must be done in one
way. taking only small square,, so that
there may be no dirty ridge between the
cleaned portions.
During this cleaning all furniture should
be removed from the room and the win
dows opened wide. The carpet must no,
be stepped upon until perfectly dry. This
is a tedious process. but a satisfactory
one.

DIET OF VEGETABLES
AND FRUIT FOR THE SKIN
Spinach, Lettuce or Greens Should Be Eaten Daily

This is the season OF the year when the
physical condition and complexion are inn

the diet. For example, with the begin
ming OF spring the system often Graves
acids, and human beings need new"
food qualities quite as cattle require fresh
grass.
Not a meal should be served, with the
exception of breakfast. without at least
one, or preferably two, new vegetables.
Spinach Is invaluable. and every day Is
none too often to have II. The green con-

be satisfied by pouring little vinegar on
the vegetables. Beets. either hot or cold.
with vinegar, are also good, both being
especially suited. to persons having kid

the place Of fresh ones at this season.
All Greens Act Directly Upon Blood.
New carrots are another vegetable that
may be appetizing now. dandelions are
not expensive and will soon be in the
market. All kinds of boiled green's are
excellent. for they act directly upon the

Lettuce is always in market. and the list
of growing green foods Is not small. Per-
sons who do not like olive oil may eat
the greens with sugar and vinegar, but it
would be well to cultivate liking for oil.
1t is wholesome and nourshing and
forms an excellent combination as

vinegar to two-thirds oil. Less oil and
more of the acid may be used If wished

Of the country fresh fruit is such a luxury
that 1t can be eaten only by the wealthy,

The Cleaning of Rugs
and Carpets at Home

The season of housecleaning is ap-
preaching. when the floor coverings,
heavy rugs and carpets must be taken
up. cleaned and possibly packed away
for the summer months. so lighter cover
inRs may be substituted. These. how
ever. frequently need either renewing or
freshening in order to continue their
service. For instance, oilcloth and limo
leum often wear in spots and so require
repairing.
As TO carpets, rugs, etc. in these days
when patent cleaners on the suction prin-
ciple can be bought so cheaply. many
housekeepers prefer to renovate their own
floor coverings rather than send them to
Z professional because IL one desires to
retain them during warm weather the
work of cleaning may be done on the
floor without even disturbing the con-
tents of the room.
II rugs and carpets are sent to cleaner
then they are rolled and dlspatched 10
their destination and when cleaned and
women think it unnecessary to open
them. believing because they are so free
from dust or stain. that they may be
safely packed away for the summer
months. But this process IS q mistaken
one. for though rugs or carpets have been
cleaned. they should be given q thorough
airing in the sun In order to become
thoroughly dry and fresh.
Before packing away. WOODEN rugs
should be sprinkled with moth preserva-
tive When one has made certain no
moth eggs are concealed in the nap. then
rugs or carpets may be rolled and sewed
into cotton bags, afterward wrapping In
newspapers, for moths have the greatest
aversion to- printers Ink.
Dye Used on Faded Portions.
Supposing the floor covering has faded,
either through wear lin spots) or from
cleaning, the colors may be restored by
nutting dye or paint and gasoline. using
a small brush. to retouch faded or worn
spots.
or course, care must be taken that the
coloring is OF the right shade.
II rugs are cleaned at home they should
be taken out of doors and thoroughly
beaten. Some persons advocate the
sprinkling Of salt over the surface, after

Tneodora's Legacy.

"Perhaps a little bird whispered in my ear"
Miss Carruthers answered. feasting her eyes on The

Miss Carruthers' slender fingers patted the soft
pink cheek of Theodore caressingly. "What an en-
Enthusiastically happy little mortal you are, Theo,"
she smiled. "Do you ever get out of sorts with
yourself, or with anybody else"
Theodore nodded her brown head, and her face
suddenly sobered. II wish I didn't. 1t seems
wicked to be anything but glad and happy every
hour we live in Gods beautiful world"
A little later Theodore passed down the walk

share her concert tickets. As she sat thinking, she
suddenly became aware that the girl two seats ahead
wore strangely familiar air.
''Why, it's Beulah Birch~ Theodore said to her
self with look of mingled delight and dismay.
"Oh. wonder if she will speak to me-"
Evidently there was no danger, since Beulah was
absorbed in book and did not raise her eyes,
Theodore regarded her with mingled feelings,
wear ago Beulah and she had been inseparable
friends, and at the time, friendly competitors
for music scholarship. Beulah had it; the
day afterwards she heard that Theodore had said

had been the talk of the little community. When
Beulah Birch left for the city it known she had
departed without saying goodbye to Theodora
What the community did not know was that Theo-
