Now what Is all this going TO amount

it seems that more than strong language

When Sink Drain Becomes cIossed

When Sink Drain Becomes CIogged
A small contrivance for cleaning the
sink pipe when it becomes clogged is a
piece of rubber hose with a coupling
on ono end to screw into the faucet
Insert the other end in the clogged
pipe; turn the water on in fun force,
and in a minute OF two the pipe will
be clear.
The hose cost twenty-eight cents
and in the past year has saved sew
eral dollars in plumbers bills. We use
another longer hose for filling the
reservoir on the back of the stove, ano
for filling the washtubs, thereby saw
ing many steps and much heavy lift

The stoppage in the kitchen sink car
be controlled TO a large extent by keep
ing a sink strainer in place and pour
ing all fluids through It into the sink
A bit Of washing soda placed in the
grating from time to time. with boil
ing water from the kettle poured
through, will melt the inevitable col
lection of grease.

and some Of the women Of all classes

The length Of the yashmak varies with
the country and the position OF the

Men and Beauty.

A question is asked:
It's a silly season leftover.
But here it is in all its stupidity.
Do men like exceedingly beautiful
women2
II sound like the breathings Of a
plain woman.
One writer hints that men. merely
uphold beauty as an institution.
This writer seems TO think that it is
necessary to our pride, like Independ-
ance Half.
A woman argues that men are sell
dom seen with beauties of the super
lative type.
This might possibly be due to the
fact that there arc not enough super
lative beauties to go round.
At any rate. one would hesitate to
wager anything Of Importance that
Mr.. Man would go out of his way TO
avoid beauty.

HE KNEW ENGLISH.

Book learning. strictly speaking that is. learning from books-leads one into many hole In The Bal kan Trair' Frederick Moore tells the story of an Italian official of the Ot- toman bank who had taught himself English and was enraptured at the chance to practice it on English peo- pie.
 It was with much pride that he ad- dressed us at supper, but we did not recognize the language he spoke and expressed in French our unfortunate ignorance or foreign tongues.
 That is your own tongue. said the Italian. but even of this statement we understood not q word.
 He drew d pencil from his pocket and on the back of q letter wrote:
 "I am speaking English.
 We were astounded.
 Perhaps l do not pronounce cor rectly," he wrote next "T have learned the noble language from books.
 The hilarious Englishman in our party gave the unhappy Italian his first real lesson at once. He took th', pencil ana wrote:
 Always pronounce English as it is not spelt Spell as il is not pro- nounced.
