some directions to the h~ousekeeper and
then hurried to her own room, too un-
nerved to do more.
Sadie found her alone there with a
look of hopeless agony on her gray

worst, and her husband had served TO
deepen her alarm by all that he had
said.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
THE HOUSEWIFE.

Sugar should be added to turnips,
beets, pea corn, squash and pump
kin. -
sparcribs should be brolled rather
thar roasted, and served with apple
u and mashed turnips.
1t takes longer to cook sweet pota-
toes than the common kind and they
cool more quickly in salt water.
New stockings should be washed be-
fore being worn. This is done to re-
move a dressing which one finds In
most new stockings. If the stocking
is worn without this dressing being re-
nibved, the chances are very great
that a hole will result the first day.
A suggestion which may be of value
to the busy housewife is that if cloths
used for busting are dampened with a
solution of equal parts OF cylinder oil
and turpentine they will hold the dust
and prevent it from flying. A cloth
thus treated may be used for a month,
and when soiled may be washed or
thrown away. Care should be taken
not to allow these dust cloths to come
Oatmeal can be used instead of bar
ley or rice in the soup. 1t thickens it,
and adds a flavor which is pleasant.

particular which stuck with But
Ter. and caused him to hit the
right spot. He happened to go
to Barker creek. and travelling
along that sream got into CONVEX
sation with Charley Graham, the
veteran hydraulic man of that
creek. Butler asked Graham about
getting good place to prospect,
and Graham told him to take his
choice of all outdoors.
Having a pair of field glasses
with him, Butler began throwing
his search lights over the valley,
and his eyes struck on high
bench which loked good to him.
1t was heavily covered with trees
and shrubbery, but he determined
to go there and try his luck. He
did so, and sank deep shaft
through the refractory gravels and
frozen muck. 1t was a hard,
sweat-bringing job, but it brought
results.
At the bottom of the shaft the
colored man dropped into a bed
of yellow, left there by the chan
nels of ages, which would rouse
the bluest hypochondriac from his
torpor. 1t was Joe's supreme mo-
ment, the happiest point in his life
