touch of artistic individuality may
be dsp'ayed in materials for window
hangings that are inexpensive, as one
woman whose income Is limited and who
likes pretty surroundings has proved by
selecting attractive hangings from cross

To Keep Silver Bright.

A LII household silver needs careful at
"a tention. and TO keep it in good con
dition the housewife must sacrifice con
siderable OF her time. When teaching an
inexperienced maid her duties In the
household the mistress should specially
stipulate that the silver should be cleaned
at least once in each week, and that
list Of all the pieces should be kept
on a hook in the pantry. After the
thorough cleansing of all the pieces they
should be counted and checked off with
the list on the hook.
Under no conditions should any silver
be allowed to remain out in the pantry
at night, unless there is a special place
for it. Each housewife usually has a
method of her own in cleansing the sill
ver 4 good polish, free from all sorts
Of grit and dirt. Is the best thing That
can be used. This can be rubbed OH with
a soft cloth and the polishing done later
with a chamois. Where engraved pieces
are cleaned great care is necessary to
get all the polish from the creases and
crevices where 1t is inest likely TO lodge.
one solution to the problem of taking
care of silyervare when II Is not IN use
has been effected. A cupboard is built
under the pantry shelves and fitted WITH
special lock and compartments maue
for the separate pieces. \ shelf the

higher than the center, thus leaving the

not gather, there is a separate floor1ng

pieces fit easily. 1t requires less than

morning. Channels is a good lining for

How to Stop Coughing in Church.
EVERY woman has experienced the
IL modification of one of those exasper-
ating. hacking little coughs which tickle
the throat and seem to grow worse the
more one tries to overcome them. They
always come upon one just at time
when the kindly coughdrop has been left
at home, and 1t is impossible to procure
the saving sip of water. Many a woma II
has hastily left her seat in church with
a red face and the echo of the hacking
little cough following her down the aisle
and into the vestibule, when the trouble
might have been conquered in a very SIM
pie way. A coughdrop is not at all es-
sential to the stopping of tickling
cough. A bit OF paper. torn from the cor
ner of a hymn book leaf or any available
pamphlet or leafiet. will answer quite a.
well as the b t of hoarhound or licorics
for the action OF the throat muscles in
masticating the bit Of paper and the con-
sequent flow of saliva soon eases the
cough, and by the time the paper is re.
duced to a pulp the cough will have
ceased and ones nervousness will be en-
tirely gone.
