Hints to the Housewife.

A lampwick will give a brighter,
stronger flame If the end in the oil
is frayed out for an inch.
One who has tried it says scraped
raw potato will relieve car sickness.
1t is also satisfactory remedy for

Unused table linens should be
washed at least once a year, thor

A hand-plate of glass rather than

The galvanized iron tubs can be
cleaned by scrubbing with hot vine

Some Simple Home Tricks.

1. A Trick by Using the Principle
of the Pump.-Place a coin in a plate
filled with water. Cut a cork and
stick two matches into it. Then take
a glass and after lighting the match
es place the glass over them. The
burning of the matches creates a va
cuum and all the water will run in
to the glass so that you can pick up
the coin without wetting the hands.
z. To Make Coin Walk.-Place
the coin on a covered table between
two forks and under a glass. To get
the coin out without touching either
forks or glass one scratches on the
table cover and the coin will start
walking
3. When Rising is Difficult.-It Is
extremely difficult to rise from a
chair sitting with crossed arms If
some one else touches ones forehead
with only one finger.
4.When a Coin Will Not Brush
Off one places a small coin in
the palm of the hand it is not at all
easy to remove it with a brush.
B. The Plate on Needle Ponit.-
Take corked bottle and drive a pin
into the cork, pinching head of the
pin OF with a pair of sharp pincers,
and drive the pin right into the
cork. Then cut two other corks
lengthwise into halves. In each half
cork put needle slightly less than
a right angle. Place the corks on the
rim of the plate so that the fat part
with the forks put into them and the
prongs of the fork touch the plate
while the handles are in a hanging
position. Then place the plate on
the point of the needle, and without
much trouble you can get balance.
6. Magic With a Ruler.-BaIance
ruler on water glass, thus iso-
lating it. Take ruler in the left hand,
between two fingers, and between the
thumb and the first finger, a fiat
piece of rubber. Rub with a WOODEN
rag the rubber plate, and it will de-
velop electricity that will easily
travel to the ruler, which then will
lift small pieces of paper placed un-
der the other end Of the ruler. AS
soon as the rubber is removed the
electricity vanishes and the paper
pieces will drop.
Z. The Dancing Manikins.-Takea
sheet of glass slightly warmed and
place it on two books. Under the
glass place small figures cut from
paper. II you rub the glass the fig
ures will dance.
3. The Coin Which is Bound to
Keep Its Place.-Cut a playing card
square, keeping the edges quite clean

The Little Dog Barked at the Buggy.
Mr.. Downey OGloom, with pardon
able pride
In his horse and his buggy, went out
for a ride.
The road was all level, his horse 1t
was gay.
Great arches of greenness oer'shad-
owed the way;
There was Joy In his heart and
light in his eye,
And he gave a brisk nod to the folks
he flew by:
And his lips were just framing
themselves to a song,
So merrily, cheerily, bow1ed he
along,
When a little dog barked at the
buggy;
o dear,
A terrier barked at the buggy.

And he thought an expression de-
cidedly bad;
And he whipped at the dog, but he
missed him of course;
And he scowled at the sidewalks, and
jerked at the horse,
While the terrier. plainly quite dog
ged in mind,
With barking obstreperous, followed
behind;
And Downey O'Gloom, in a mood
far from sweet,
Went whirling along the sedate viii

buggy;
The terrier barked at the buggy.
And Downey no more had a song In
his throat,
For his heart was attuned to the ter
rier>s note:
And Downey no more had light in
his eye,
For that one little cur overshadow-
ed the sky;
And the road grew uneven with many
jolt,
And the new buggy ratified in Inch
pin and bolt,
And the trees gave no shade, and the
friends he passed by
All flung him bantering cast of the
eye.
For-the little dog barked at the
buggy;
The terrier barked at the buggy.
Fellow drivers that speed on one road
to the tomb,
Let us see our own image in Downey
O'G1oomi
How often We travel with laughter
and song,
Till some cross little worry comes
barking along;
And then, like a flash, all the sun
shine is dead,
And bare are the boughs of the trees
overhead,
And the road is all ruts, and the
birds fly away,
And the peace is all gone from the
heart of the day,
While the little dog banks at our
o dear!
buggy;
The terrier banks at our buggy.

Women Woh Are Enyied.

Those attractive women who are
lovely in face, form and temper, are
the envy of many, who might be like
them. A weak. sickly woman will
be nervous and irritable. Constina-
ton or Kidney poisons show in pim-
pies. blotches, skin eruptions and a
wretched complexion. For all such.
Electric Bitters work wonders. They
regulate Stomach, Liver and Kid
neys, purify the blood; give strong
nerves, bright eyes, pure breath,
smooth velvety skin, lovely complex
ion. Many charming women owe
their health and beauty to them. Soc.

Steamed Eggs.

Everyone boils eggs; those that
are steamed are less common, and
even more delicious.
Provide shallow dish the size OF

eggs as are needed to cover the bot

tered and the eggs carefully slipped
on it.
On the top of each egg put small
piece OF butter, salt and pepper. Set
dish On steamer for about three min

Why Do Men Advertise?

The man who conducts his
business on the theory that it
doesn't pay and he can't afford
to advertise, sets up his judg-
ment in opposition to that of all
the best business men in the
world. Says an experienced ad-
vertising authority With a
few years experience in con-
Quoting a small business on a
few thousand of capital, he as
sumes to know more than thous-
ands whose hourly transactions
aggregate more than his do in a
year, and who have made their
millions by pursuing a course
that he says doesn't pay?"
If advestising doesn't pay, why
is it that the most successful
merchants of every town, large
or small, are the heaviest adver-
tisers? If advertising doeSn' t
pay, who does the most business9
If it does not pay. why do bust
ness firms the world over spend
millions in that way. Is it be
cause they want to donate those
millions to the newspaper and
magazine publishers, or because
they don't know as much as the
Sixfor- a. dollar merchant who
says money spent in advertising
is money thrown away or money
donated to the man to whom it
is paid? Such talk is simply
ridiculous and it requires more
than the average patience to dis
cuss the proposition of whether
advertising pays with that kind
of man. His complacent self
conceit in assuming that he
knows more than the whole world
is laughable. and reminds US of
the man who proved that the
world doesn't revolve by placing
a pumpkin on a stump and watch
ing it all night.
