cold water when putting away. Turn
water off when ready to use again,
and you will have no crust on your

One-half cupful of milk added to a

When shoe lacings lose the tip on
the end of lace, wind a piece OF silk
thread number of times around the
ends, about one-half inch, and tie
firmly, and the lacings can be used
much longer and will be easy to lace

pecially for children's shoes.
If your lawn is becoming grey and

pioneer Of forage crops and a single
head will often send out as many as
sixty seed every year. White clover
seed sown in August and kept moist

is the seed for new lawns. A two
months old lawn Of white clover will
make as good lawn as two years

walked across the meadow. At last
he saw small object hopping along
In the grass. The small object hoped
upon a tiny mound and blinked his
eyes at Johnny. Johnny was all ex-

took careful aim. There was a loud
report and then a very small, excited
boy ran hastily after the little bob
tailed creature which was now hop

"oh, little Molly Cotton-tail," cried
Johnny, as he caught the rabbit in
his hands; "oh, oh, I have broken
your poor little leg! How cruel, I
am so sorry that 1 shot you. 1 will
take you home with me and bind your

Johnny gathered the poor. fright

1t home with him. Soon he had band

where he might tend it until it was

WANT PICTURE OF KITCHEN.


"a phase of the servant girl ques-
ton that was new to me was sprung
yesterday when I called at the en-
ployment agency to hire a cook"
said the nervous Boston woman. "a
prepossessing looking girl was
brought forward for an interview.
Her first question was, Have you
any pictures of your kitchen?'
81 said I had none.
1T Is always best to bring them,
said the girl loftily. 1t saves time
and trouble, for with them to look at

ton OF the sink, the tubs, the range
and the cupboards and can tell IL the
place will suit her.

that phase Of the proposition another
woman with wider experience than
mine piped up that she had brought
views Of her kitchen. From that min.
ute was out of it so far as that par.

woman hired her on the spot.

A VISIT TO THE NAVY YARD.


Last autumn I had the pleasure Of
visit to the Brooklyn navy yard. I
was invited by the father of a friend
of mine. and We asked few of our
friends.
The day was a fine one, and after
crossing the Brooklyn Bridge in a
trolley car we walked to the navy
yard.
One OF the boys had brought a
kodak with him. and expected to take
some pictures, but as We were about
to enter n blue-coated official said
that 1t was not allowed, and he had
to leave his camera behind until we
came out.
After entering the yard everything
was \ hustle and hurry. There was
the hum OF drills, the screeching Of
engines, and the incessant hammering
as the men fitted the pieces of metal
on the huge sides OF Il battleship that
was being built in drydock. We then
walked over to one of the battleships
that was tied up to the dock, and,
securing permission. we climbed up
deck. where one of the sailors offered
to show us around.
Everything WAS intensely interest
ing, and we enjoyed our visit very
much.-Howard Townsend, in the
New York Tribune.

CRACKERS AND STALE BREAD.
Crackers and stale bread to be

the food chopper. using the finest
knife Of the set, and they will be re-
duced to a fine powder with very lit

afterwards. as in the case when crack

having fastened the top of the bag
securely, pound with a wooden DO
tato masher or the rolling pin until
the crackers are reduced to fine
crumbs. The empty salt bags should
be washed and put away Tor this pur-
pose. for the crumbs may be left in
the bag II they are not all used, and
a spoonful taken out from time to
time, as one requires them. without
the bother OF rolling them each time
they are needed. In this way none
OF the crumbs are wasted and any
undue labor in transferring from the
bags is saved.-Mary E. Russell, In

the old fort green. We were playing

were hiding in a tent down by tho
road. when suddenly one of the boys
said: Look over the hill? Isn't

all thought it was a giraffe, so we
went up to the hill The hill was a
piece Of land going up higher than

hill, what do you think we found the
animal was? A leopard? No. A
goat? No. A calf? No. Well, it
was little deer. The people were

WHY YOU TALK NONSENSE IN
YOUR SLEEP.
In a paper on the mechanism and
Interpretation of dreams, read re-
Gently before the neurological section
Of the Academy Of Sciences, Morton
Prince. of Boston, stated that dreams
are in reality psychoses. or types of
delirium, and are characterized by
the same general symptoms, II one
may speak of symptoms aside from
disease. Mr.. Prince said he did not
believe with Freud that every dream
represents the fulflllment of a wish,
but rather that it represents the un-
fulfillment of wish or the fulfllment
of fear.
One woman mentioned by him al
ways dreamed that she was surround
! ed by myriad OF cats, and sine would
| usually awake when they seemed to
be attacking her or when she was
thrown helplessly among them. Un-
! der hypnotic influence it was found
that in early childhood this woman
had been greatly frightened by a pet
cat, which had scratched and bitten
her, and that the memory of this oc-
casion, although seemingly buried
deep in the tumble of past expert
ences, nevertheless had 4 certain psy-
Geological coloring which caused It to
be resurrected only during uncon-
scious states.
Such facts, he said, may explain
in a measure the curious and appar-
emily utterly illogical single words
and statements coming from the lips
OF those in delirium, but it will al
ways be found that, just as in many
hallucinatory states Of the insane. the
mind Is working at a tremendous
rate, much faster than the organs OF
speech can record the ideas, and
hence what comes to our ears from
the dreamer Is simply a mass of non.
sensical words.-New York World.

The Military Salute.

All salutes. from taking OF the hat
to presenting arms. originally implied
respect or submission. OF military sa-
lutes, raising the right hand to the
head is generally believed to have orig
mated from the days Of the tourna-
ment, when the knights fled past the
throne Of the queen Of beauty and by
way of compliment raised their hands
to their brows to imply that her beauty
was too dazzling for unshaded eyes to
gaze upon.
The officers salute with the sword
has double meaning. The first posi-
ton. with the hilt opposite the lips, Is
a repetition of the crusaders action in
kissing the cross hilt of his sword In
token Of faith and fealty. while lower
ing the point afterward implies either
submission or friendship. meaning in
either case that it Is no longer neces-
sary to stand on guard. Raising the
hand to the forehead has also been eX-
planned as sign that the weaponed
hand is empty and in an inofensive
position. but this reason does not seem
so convincing as the others.

eagle. We can understand rhe tapping
Of the eagles immense wing support

our little bird has plump body His
wings are not wide. but long. so he
must move them rapidly to sustain bis

so rapid as to make them almost in

himself in midair, with his body as
motionless as il perched on q twig

never alights while so engaged. He

times chasing away bee or hum
