Noisy Nuisances.

1ll-fitting doors and windows rep
resent happy hunting ground for the
disturbing winds. In fact, SO annoying
does the constant rattle of these open
ings become that many determined in
dividuals, who resolve to admit the
fresh air, choose the lesser of two
evils and close the openings in prefer
ence to sleepless nights. This can be
remedied if a small wedge of wood
be driven in at the side of an open
window; door can be prevented
from rattling if pad or strip of thick
felt be nailed on the edge of the door.
The annoyance of creaking drawers
can be eliminated by rubbing common
soap upon the top, sides and bottom of
each.
Creaking hinges on anything should
be well oiled, while the grating, irri-
tating noise of sewing machine can
be overcome in a similar manner.
The little noises wear away the pa
tience that is required for other
things. 1t were foolish to dissipate
energy through the channels of irri-
tated nerves when little time will
obviate the nuisances.
