TIPS ON SWEEPlNG A ROOM,
How to Do Il Thoroughly With Listis
Trouble.


In the FIRST place. supply yourself
with sweeping sheets. How many os
you have them ready? A substitute Is
sometimes supplied by using the soilec
sheets from the bed for covering the
furniture. but that Is not exactly e
clean method.
Should you wish to purchase new
sheets buy the coarse unbleached cot
ton cloth, double width. and bind fl
with turkey red. Make the sheets big
enough to cover the largest piece of
furniture you wish TO protect IN this
way.
Dress yourself for your work before
you begin it-a cotton frock which
fits easily i'm the waist and sleeves. s,
that your movements may not be ham
pered; easy shoes, n sweeping cap
which will protect the hair entirely.
and, IL you are careful of your hands
a pair of loose. old gloves.
Begin your work by carrying from
the room all small objects which you
cannot lay on some chair or couch.
that can be covered afterward. Dust
them before you lay them aside. using
a cheeseeloth or channels cloth buster
which has been slightly dampened.
Next move out of the room all small
pieces of furniture which can be taken
from the room easily. busting them
also before they are banished.
Cover closely with your sweeping
sheets all the furniture which cannot
be removed. using smaller cloths fol
draping pictures and other wall orna
ments which cannot readily be taken
down. Rugs and the like will. OF
course, have to be taken out.
Have ready your damp tea leaves
or damp shredded paper for sweeping
Never do dry sweeping. The dust
flies. no matter what care you eXer-
else. When you use the damp tea
leaves it does not have the chance t.
blow about the room and ill every
niche or crevice which supplies room
for It,
Sweep from the corners and sides OF
the room TO the center. Go into every
recess with your broom.

A NlGERIAN LEGEND.
1t Tells of the Origin of Mans Sub

1t Tells of the Origin of Mans Sub
lection to Women.
There is a quaint old Nigerian legend
that relates the origin Of mans sub
lection to women.
At the beginning of things, the le-
gend runs, the world was peopled by
women only. One day the earth god.
Awbassi MAI. happened by accident to
kill u woman. On hearing this the rest
gathered together and prayed that, If
he meant to Stay them. he would bring
destruction on all together rather than
kill them one by one.
Awbassi was sorry for the grief he
had caused and offered as compensa-
ton TO give them anything they should
choose out Of all bis possessions They
begged him to mention what be had TO
give and said that they would all cry
Eyes" when be named the thing they
wished to have.
Awbassi mentioned one by one all
his fruits. fowls and beasts. but at
each they shouted NO" At length
the list was nearly ended-only one
thing remained to offer.
"Will you. then, take man?" asked
AWbassi ut last "Yesr' they roared
in u great shout, and. catching hold of
one another. danced for Joy at the
thought Of the gift Awbassi was send
ing.
Thus men became the servants OF
women and have to work for them to

BANNING CATS AND DOGS.
Various Explanations OF tho Origin Of
This Exprcssior

various Explanations Of tho Origin 81
This Expression.
Many explanations have been given
OF the origin OF the expression raining
cats aud dogs" One Is that It is per-
version of the French ''catadoupe." Il
waterfall-"it Is raining catalogues"
or cataracts. Another explanation Is
that the male blossoms OF the willow
tree. which are used on Palm Sunday
to represent the branches OF palm,
were called "cats and dogs" In some
parts of England. where they increase
rapidly after a few warm April show
ers. and the belief prevailed that the
rain brought them.
Others trace the saying to northern
mythology. in which the cat is said to
have great influence on the weather.
and sailors still have saying. The
cat has gale of wind in her tail"
when she is unusually frisky. Witches
that rode upon the storms were said
20 assume the form Of cats, and the
stormy northwest wind is called 1.-The
cats nose" In the Harz mountains
even at the present day. Then the dog
is n symbol OF wind. which In old Ger
man pictures is figured as the head of
a dog or wolf from which blasts issue.
The cat therefore symbolizes down
pour of rain: the dog. strong gusts OF
wind. which accompany IT. and so a
rain "of cats and dogs" is a heavy rain
with wind.
