The Home HospitaI.

The hospital drawer should be fitted up with the following articles:
 Two large and four small bed pads. To make these use two old bed quilts, one cut in two pieces and the other in four. Fold these together, the best side out, and quilt on the machine. Have two covers for each pad. The best is cheap unbleached canvas. as it washes white and looks well.
 Three packalles of thin cloth. This Is to be used for mustard plasters. some longer than wide.
 Orc roll of old linen. This cloth is used for bathing the face or for burns cuts or sores, where lint or cotton cloth would be harmful. Save for this pur pose all old tablecloths, napkins and handkerchiefs.
 One roll of long strips of muslin and srraiDs, cuts and abscesses.
 One roil cotton.
 One package large, square, soft cloths. Sew on two sides for making bran, slippery elm, hop and fiaxseed meal poultices.
 One package small sacks for dry, hot poultices, such as salt or hops.
 One and one-haIf yards of rub Der sheeting.
 One box mustard.
 One cake pure castillo soap.
 One hot water bag
 One bottle smelling salts.
 One small jar of air-slaked lime and linseed oil, as it affords instant relief for burns.
 Pin a label on the rolls so that no matter who goes to the drawer they. can lay their hands on just what is wanted and not keep the suffering one waiting.

she says, that one cannot always cleanse the skin thoroughly with only soap and water and comparatively smooth cloth. A cold-cream bath on the face will prove that. Therefore she takes a small scrub brush, of the sort sometimes sold in drug stores for nail brushes, and, first wetting the body with a sponge and hot water, the brush and a thick soap father. This goes down into the pores and cleanses them, carries off more old skin and particles of dust and waste than the ordinary wash cloth, and stimulates the circulation. The soap is next thor oughly rinsed off with hot water, and the bath followed by a cold shower and brisk rub. For the not too wig orous person, a slight rest adds to the beneficial effect, but, whether with or without the concluding soap, the treatment will be found both refresh ing and invigorating.

Caring for the Patterns.

To keep paper patterns from being mussed take a strip of denim four feet long, twenty-seven inches wide; band or hem edges. Take narrow elastic webbing and make loops just as wide as pattern envelopes, running across denim. Make other rows of these loops below the first about six inches apart, sew a large ring or loop to each of the four corners of cloth, fold through middle and hang on two small screws in back of machine or sewing screen. Your patterns are in neat rows and the elastic holds them securely.

Remedy for Nose BIeed.

For obstinate and persistent nose bleeding either put an ice pack or a cloth rung out of ice water at the back of the neck just at the base of the brain, or drop cold water from sponge held well above the head so that it will strike the crown of the head with con siderable force.
 The head should be kept well ele- vated; even in cases of extreme weak ness do not allow the patient to He down, and small wads of absorbent cot ton wet with weak solution of carbol- ic acid should be used to plug the nos trils.
 If the arms are held above the head for five or ten minutes the bleeding, if not severe will usually stop.

FATE OF CURIOUS cocaARs.
Big Washington Cats That Were In- .clined to Be Too Observing.


 clined to Be Too Observing.
 Several weeks ago. a cougar. meas aring over eight feet in length, fol- owed Miss Mary Burr, the teacher of he School of Messlers, in the edge of he Rainier forestry reserve, from near the schOolhouse until she met with a forestry ranger who with sEkers. sub sequently ran down and killed the ani- nal. Saturday Miss Burr went to Tisit a neighbor, and suddenly became iware that another cougar was follow Ing her. She first saw the animal ahead of her, but later she saw it in the path behind. She hurried ahead to her destination, and hunting party composed of J. V. Cook and 4. Fenton. with several dogs, started in pursuit.
 The dogs found the trail of the cou- gar, and after following short dis lance treed it. Cook shot and wound ed the animal, which dropped to the yround and was bounced upon by the logs. It instantly killed one of the dogs with its terrible claws and teeth. though Cook and Fenton were both ,rying to shoot it, but in the scutFe between it and the dogs found but lil- tle opportunity to do so without shoot ing the dogs. Before finally mortally wounded the animal had nes fly killed another of the dogs.
 The cat measured nearly eight feet, being not quite so large as the cat kill ed several weeks ago. Neither of tho cougars attempted any depredations, keIr chief objects being apparently to satisfy their curiosity to follow and observe pcople.-Seattle Post-Intelli. gencer.

DrOyvsiness.

Sleepiness is a normal and healtEt condition when it occurs at the usua, bec dime and when not extreme and overpowering. But 1t is not alwaya associated with sleep. Some persons in perfect health and excellent sleeper, hardly know the meaning of drowsiness they are active mentally and physically until they are in bed; then sleep come, It once, and when it leaves them in the morning they are again in full mental awakeness.
 There are less fortunatt persons who aeyer have a complete and satisfactory nights rest who are yet almost con stantly drowsy; they are always nod. ding, but when the head touches the pillow sleep recedes, and the night Is a succession of drowsy lapses to sleep with the instant return of semi-con- sciousneSs.
 In general, with the exception noted it the beginning of this article, drowsi- less is abnormal, and indicates some thing wrong either in the body or the sufferer or In his habits. Those who 1abitually cut off their hours of sleep, the might owls" and the burners of the midnight oil, pay for their bad habit by attacks of sleepiness in the after noon and early evening; later, unfortu- sately, after the influence of digestion wears off, the drowsiness disappears. and then. relieved of his burden. the person 'sits up to all hours" again, thinking in that way to make up for The hours lost by the drowsiness. If he would abandon his owlish habit, go to ped betimes, and get the seven or eight hours of continuous sleep that he needs, his daytime and evening drowsl- ness would disappear, he could do more and better work and find life much ylore enjoyable.
 A slight drowsiness is often noticed after q hearty meal, because active di- sestion draws greater volume of blood to the stomach so that the brain Is relatively poorly supplied. In some southern countries this tendency is fa- vored, and the siesta after the noon meal Is a national custom. With us the after-dinner cup of black coffee often drives away the impulse to sleep whether for good or ill may be left to the physiologists to determine.
 Sometimes we hear of attacks of Ileepiness occurring suddenly at cer- .ain periods of the day or at irregular Intervals. These are altogether abnor- nal, and In such cases there is almost always some poison at work in the nervous centers- usually a self-manu- factured poison which, because 1t Is made in too great quantity. or because or kidney disease prevents its rapid elimination, accumulates iE the system.
 An essential iH the treatment of such cases Is dieting. Meat should be given up for a time, at least, and the only beverage allowable is water or milk.

NEW YORK AND WASHINGTON
SCHOOLS BAR FOOTBALL.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Football has
been banished from the New York pub
lie schools by the Board of Superin-
tendents. While there have been no
fatalities among the public school teams
this season there have been many acct
dents in which bones were broken and
pupils were otherwise injured. The re-
vision of the rules has failed to elimi-
nate the danger of the sport and the
Board of Superintendents decided that
the game should be abolished.
As the New York schools constitute
the largest single body of football play
ers the blow to the game is considered
severe and may have an effect through
out the country. 1t vas understood that
members of the Board of Superin-
tendents had correspondent with school
directors in other cities n that the
action now taken is the result of Sc
rious conferences which will include
other school systems.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1a-At a meet
ing here yesterday of the Board of
High School Principals it was decided
to suspend the schedule of football
games for this season and to abolish
the sport altogether unless the rules
are so modified as to reduce the danger
to the participants. Recent casualties
resulting from the games were pointed
to as sufficient cause for cancelling
football in the future.

FRANKLINS CAN SCARCELY
LOSE SENIOR SOCCER FLAG.

The Franklins did not play yesterday
in the Senior Public School Soccer
league, and their lead was cut down to
one point by the Miller Street eleven,
which succeeded in winning a game
from the Burnett Street by a score of
40. Franklin has two more games to
play, however, and the Miller Street
boys have but a single contest on the
list. Should the latter team win its
game and the Franklins lose two the
Miiiers would be the champions of the
senior league. On the other hand. IL
Franklins lose one and draw the other,
a tie would exist between the two lead
ing teams. In the other games Thir-
teenth won from Washington Street by
a score of 10. South Market defeated
Central Avenue 20, and North Seventh
Street won from the Bergens by the
same score. Belmont and Newton
fought each other to a draw at one
goal each.
In the Junior league Thirteenth Ave-
nue. was held to a no score tie. and the
Bergen Street boys by taking a 10
game from the Camdeils came within
one point OF tieing the leaders. The
other games resulted in wins for the
Millers and the Burnetts.

XKYHILE none of the first foals of
w Axum, premier stallion at Geo.
Stengel's Elkwood Park Farm
now 3-year-olds, were started In the
futurity events, 10 which they were
eligible, simply because a 30 trotter
ann beat a 2.07 t~rotter, three of them
have shown form enough in their work
during the past season to warrant the
prediction that the son of Axtell and
Kathy will sire extreme trotting speed.
Three of his get have beaten 2.40 over
the poor half-mile track at Red Bank
during the last fall, all foals of 1906,
with a very limited amount of work.
The fastest and handsomest of the trio
is the chestnut stud colt Sidney S.
Toman, out of Oriana, 2.17A, a daugh-
ter of Orator. While this fellow. a
slashing-gaited colt, has not been
asked to step a full mile better thar
2.40, he stepped several eighths in Oc-
tober in II seconds, which demonstrates
thai he is possessed of extreme speed,
and will probably deliver the goods i'll
his 4-year-old form.
The chestnut gelding Billings, out OF
Argyle, 2.20. by Aristoles Zone of c. K
G.. Billings's old matinee trotters thai
went a mile to pole in 2.18), IL another
that looks high-class. He has done
mile in 2.40, and stepped quarters hand
lily in 80 seconds. He is q counterpart
of his sire and a show horse in every
sense of the term.
Last, but not least. Is a chestnut FLY
with a flaxen name and tall called
yenus's Pride, out of that good old
dun Happy Venus, 2.1sA. This
flly is as handsome thing as lives,
good gated and fast. She, too, has
done u mile In 2.40, and a brush an
eighth in II seconds without any exer-
ton. All these colts go light forward
and aft, no rigging and open brides.
Mr.. Stengel is surely justified in the
belief that all will beat 2.20 in their 4
year-old form. All their trials were to
cart over the half-mile plant at Red
Bank, and so good a judge Of quality
and speed as John Sebring, who for
years was with Peter c. Kellogg, pro-
nounces them in a class with the very
best that he has ever seen.

INDOOR BASEBALL LEAGUE
MAY BE FORMED SOON.

The Nutley A. c.. and the Mutuals,
of Belleville, will cross bats in a game
of indoor baseball at Hillside Park
Hall tonight. Should the game be a
success Manager Mccarthy will prob
ably issue an invitation to all teams
wishing to form an indoor baseball
league, the meeting to be held in the
Hillside Park Hall. The games that
have been played during the last few
weeks indicate that indoor baseball
will become popular if properly
handled. This fact was shown by the
increase in the crowd last week over
the attendance of the week before.
Therefore, those who wish to see In
door baseball continued during the win
ter in good style should attend this
game.
