HINTS FOR HOUSEWIVES.

Don't throw away bacon fat. Use 1t
to fry fish, as it gives the fish an ex-
cellent flavor.
To hang up a silk petticoat sew
tapes on the inside, at top edge OF
hounce; then hang bottom side up.
This keeps the hounce from '-hatten-
ing"
To remove grass stains from chit
dren's clothes rub the spots thoroughly
with a little fresh lard a short time
before washing and the spots will
come out.
A small button of garlic in a quart Of
vinegar will give it a mysterious, de-
licious flavor. and it will immensely
improve salads or anything in which
it is used.
Never pour scalding water into milk
vessels. Ii cooks the milk on the sides
and bottom of the vessels making It
more difficult to clean such articles.
Rinse them first with cold water. The
same rule applies to cleaning catsup
bottles.
Use one-half ounce OF cloves. nut
meg, caraway seeds, cinnamon and
three ounces of orris root. Have these
in a fine powder and place in small
bags. These bags, placed amid CLOTH
ing. viii impart a pleasant odor and will
keep moths out.
In the layette basket was found a
little white ivory box, which. when
opened. revealed many little articles
necessary for the very young baby.
Whether the baby had the Group or
suddenly LOST a pin, the needed articles
were found in the emergency box.
To clean painted walls dissolve two
ounces of borax in two quarts Of water
and add one tablespoonful Of ammonia
Use half this quantity to each bucket
of water; do NOT use soap Wash a
small amount Of the paint at a time
and rub dry with a clean cloth.

ROUND ABOUT THE HOUSE

Sunshine is a killer of germs and a powerful dianfedant AS much
and curtains will result but the d octors bills will decrease.
A very cheap disinfectant is prmanganate of potash. A penny
worth is enough to thoroughly di sinfect a foul drain. A little of this
mixed to a claret color with water will be a cheap and ready dianfectant
at all times
Damp cupboards spoil all that is put into them, and lead to expense
in renewals Linen nndews and spols. knives rust, boots turn green,
and the owner is put to expense In replacing the loss OF what the
cupboard mas ruined. Quicklme. renewed occasionally. should be kept
in such a place. This will keep the cupboard dry and absorb all damp
A frequent flushing of pipes with hot clearwater will free them from
cloggng and from grease, the cause of clogging. This precauion may
a sickness in the house broug hit on by bad smells. Such a bad
drain pipe has power to amt food in the house, and to bring IN sick
less from this reason.
Air should be let in under all washed saucepans on their shelf
This prevents sourness
No slop-water should be thro wn down an outside drain, much LEST
an inside me-. If any hair is put into the sop-water from hair brushes
and combs, the u result will b e a blocked drain, and great trouble
must be touched with n oiled feather nowS and then tt save the
annoyance of creakng doors.
Devices that save labor ire sources OF economy at home. Windows
cleaned with methylaed spirits win not want doing half SO oten. This
used instead of water for plate-c leaning will increase brnMance and
halve labor. In summer kerosene used o glass keeps fly specks off
Washable walls ire very sanitary in all kitchens

MEDITATIONS OF
. THE OLD MAID


Every married man is chaperoned by
his wife.
There Is no more expensive luxury IN
the world than getting even.
Why is it that all women shut their
eyes when they are being kissed.
If you take notice it is always the IN
married people who are optimists about
natrimony.
There isn't anything very far wrong
With a man who can find nothing that,
IN his opinion, beats staying at home.
A mothers idea of as good luck as
any one can ask for is to occasionally
find a pair of stockings in the pile that
dosen't need darning.
The women are learning more about
business matters every day. but the
men are not taking any more interest
In cooking. 1t seems that in the course
of a few years women will have every
thing to do.
There is the kind of man who makes
a woman happy before marriage, the
kind that makes her happy after mar
riage, and the kind that makes her
miserable all the time. if you love him.

E FASHION NOTES.
Observation-Disclosures

Never before have flannel shirts been
SO popular and they are being shown
not only in plain %coIors. but in striped
effects as well. Curiously enough. the
majority of them seem to be made with
a breast pocket. which always is an ir-
ritation. as most men wear these shirts
now in place of madras ones on outing
occasions and often with a waistcoat,
and there seems to be no special reason
for the pocket. Most men dislike TO
wear shirts that suggest a schoolboy's
blouse, unless. of course. they are aetu-
ally mountaineering or some such thing.
But on those rare occasions the very
fine French flannel shirts are scarcely
suitable. The flannel shirt of the mo-
ment has the so-called French or dou-
BILE cuff. The pale grays, greens and
tans are particularly handsome.-Fair-
child's Magazine.

A TOUCH OF HAND.woRK.

There is no better way to finish the
little girls underwear than the edge
of dainty hand embroidery after the
French.
1t may be but the narrowest possible
scallop or the tiniest vine or forget-me-
not dotted on at intervals.
1t may be done in eyelet or seed or
solid stitch. but embroidery it should
be for wear with the best little gowns.
The drawers should be finished the
same way. and the neck and armholes
of the small underwaist.
There is a certain other dainty finish
for these little nainsook garments-nar-
row valenciennes-that is irreproach-
able, but the flannel petticoat should al
WAYS be embroidered
1t is never an evidence of good taste
t. overdecorate the underwear of little
children-or of big children. either.

II FLoUNcE.

The founce was ever a favorite by
which thin materials could be fashioned
into fluffy gowns, and its advent is
hailed with delight by those who real
lie the inconvenience of plain skirts in
thin materials. While naturally intend
ed for a fashion in sheer materials, yet
the founce made its first appearance
this year in white serge. The 1ounce
may be stitched on at or above the
knee lin and there is also the fiounced
skirt sewn to the hip length yoke.

OUR CT HILDREN'S CORNER
POOR JOHN

fOHN and Rose were left at home
one morning, so they decided 10
play school. Rose, being two years
older than her brother, was the teacher,
and she wasted no time in setting her
! pupil to work.
How many are three times three?"
Seven answered John!
NO, John, nine said the little
teacher. How many are four times
three?"
Eleven"
why, John, you do not know your
multiplication table one little bit. I'll
try geography. What State is west of
New York."
"Maine!' shouted John. Il know
that, anyway"
But it isn't Maine" said Rose.
There is no use in bringing me the
book to near you until you have learned
your lessons. I'm afraid your mind is
on your rabbits and not on YOU les
sons and the little schoolma'am shook
her head soberly:
well, you know said John, there
we're four baby rabbits born last night,
and I was thinking what to name
them. What do you think of .Frisk'
for one and Stump for the 9TH
II think you had better study your
books or you'll be the Ounce of your

John took the book again and sat
down in the corner and began
Twice one are two; twice two are
four; twice three are six; twice-I Won
der whether Stump Is a pretty enough
name for the white rabbit? Oh, dear!
II can't study now; I'll get up early
tomorrow n look over this arith-
metic."
But the next day he oversight him
self, n when he entered school he
knew no more than he did h day
before.
john said his teacher, how much
are three times three?"
Seven" said John. promptly.
This is the third time in succession
that you have missed in numbers, so
you'll have to wear the Ounce cap
Poor Johni He thought of Rose. and
how ashamed she'd be of him, and as
he stood on his stool in the corner, a
peaked Ounce cap on his head, he was
ashamed of himself, and he vowed to
Jet the rabbits lake care of themselves,
and to devote himself to his lessons in
the future.-Public Ledger.

Let her alone for a time. Probably
she has not begun to realize thai she is

her to wear becoming clothes. For the

IOWA RANKS THIRD.
State Crowds Ohio For Second Place
in Rural Delivery.

IN Rural Delivery.
Washington, Sept 11.-Illinois is
richer than any other state in the
union as regards rural free delivery
routes. A compilation of routes which
mas just been made by the fourth as
sistant postmaster general shows Illi-
nois to contain 2.s35 of these little mail
systems whereby farmers and citizens
in isolated districts receive the atten-
ton of Uncle Sam daily and have their
mali delivered at their doors instead of
being compelled to drive to the nearest
town to obtain it.
The average route is about thirty
miles long and serves at least seventy
five families. Consequently the state
is fairly well gridironed by this time
and there are few sections where the
daily mail service is not in force
Ohio has been given the net best
attention by the postoffice department
1t contains 2,52a routes. Nearly all the
other middle western states have shar-
ed we'll in government bounties Iowa
has 2.424 rural free delivery routes
Indiana 2.l1s, Michigan 1899, and Wis
consin 1925. The state of New York,
which is fairly well covered by rail-
roads. has but 1888 routes 1t is as
serted. however. that the number Of
rural routes in this state is no criterion
of the amount of mail matter distrib-
uted there. for the number of routes
served by single carriers is quite long
