For the Housewife.

The American theory OF giving rooms
q superficial busting every morning and
then a final cleansing once in seven days
does not commend itself to thoughtful
women, for dirt is dirt whether or not 1t
shows, and it is unhygienic to leave il
simply because 1t is not visible. 1t is a
mistake, too. to think that a thorough
busting and wiping every morning takes
much time, for by following such a meth
Cd time is really saved, because a whole
day need not be given weekly to cleaning
the house.
An experiences housekeeper who lives
in a large apartment keeps it in order
with the aid Of one girl by this system
First in the morning, the mistress
breakfast is brought TO her room on a
tray while her husband eats his morning
meal in the dining room and waits on
himself. This saves the maids time, SO
she can clean the reception room while
the family eats. In this room the big rug
is swept with corn broom, and the
margin of the hard wood floor Is wiped
with a soft cloth. The furniture and or
naments are then busted and the room Is
clean and in order. II this Is done every
day there is no need for periodical clean
ings The dining room is treated the
same way, as is the carpeted hall, with
its margin Of hard wood.
After the breakfast dishes, which are
few. have been washed and put away,
such clothes and house linen as have be-
come soiled the day previous are washed
and hung to dry.
In other WORDS, there is not regular
wash day because there is no occasion
for one Clothes do not accumulate for
more than twenty-four hours, and there
are so few that washing them takes only
few minutes. Having. laundry work
done daily is an English custom, and is
far more hygienic than the American one
of permitting soiled Yinen to walt through
the week. The clothes are ironed the
same afternoon.

HOT MILK IN WINTER AIDS
THE ORGANS OF DIGESTION

While hot milk is one Of the best
liquids that can be taken into the sys-
TEN in winter, cold milk is not desirable
for when the thermometer Is low it is not
quickly assimilated. 1t forms a large
curd in the stomach and often causes
acute indigestion. This is the reason
why some persons who take milk freely
in summer are obliged to do without II
at this season. Hot milk never curds
and cannot cause sharp pain.
It should be used by grown persons
more than it Is. for not only is it nourish-
ing, but it soothes the nerves of the stom-
ach and so is relaxing to the whole
system. When a woman is too tired to
eat or is feeling tagged and worn out
she will find herself wonderfully re-
freshed If she takes a cup Of hot milk
and lies down for ten minutes. The drink
is to be slipped and taken as hot as 1t

BABY'S SCALP ALL
CRUSTED OVER
With Eczema That Broke Out when
but Three Months Burned
and Itched So She Could Not Sleep
Chance of Cure Seemed, Slight.
CURE BY CUTICURA
EASY AND COMPLETE

~Our little daughter, when thres
months old. began TO break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
eyes became crossed from the disease
and her scalp was q solid scale all over,
The burning and itching was so severe
that she could not rest, day or night.
We had about given up all hopes when
we read an advertisement of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. We at once got a cake
OF Cuticura Soap, box of Cuticura Oint-
nent and ono bottle Of Cuticurn ResoIv-
ent and followed directions carefully.
After the first dose Of tho Cuticura Re-
solvent, we used the CutiCura Soap freely
and applied tho Cuticura Ointment.
Then she began to Improve rapidly and
IN two weeks tho scale came of her head
and new hair began to grow. In very
short time she was we'll. Her eyes were
perfectly straight when she recovered
and have been SO ever since. She is now
sixteen years Of age and is a picture OF
health. We know the Cuticura Rene
dies cured her and have used them In
our family ever since.
I'VE used tho Cuticura Remedies
about five weeks, regularly, and then
we could not tell she had been affected
with any disease. She suffered with
burning and itching and hard, scaly,
dandrun- looking scabs all over her head
and in places on her body. We used no
other treatments after we found out what
the Cuticura Remedies would do for her.

WITH THE TRAVELLERS

for instead OF answering them back and
having fun with them he just smiled,
oh, so sadly.

me travellers said, 'Sit down, old man,
we won't tell on you If you steal the
company blind, Wen all go on the
stand and swear you are the most hon
est conductor on the road. Cheer UP,
old man, don't cry, we're ali for you"
put the fat conductor only shook his
head as they moved over to give him a
seat and pulled out cigars One OF the
drummers asked the Others, What's
the matter with the old man. He never
acted this way before? Isn't it queer"
AT the next station the train made a
stop Of five minutes, and II was no
ticed that the head brakeman was act
ing as conductor. On his first trip
through the car he handed the drum
mers a telegram addressed to the fat
conductor and 1t read: Your baby is
dead. Come home on first train" and
from that on the train was like a tuner
al party.
There was a big wreath of flowers az
the funeral OF the baby two days after.
and the fat conductor will always be-
lieve that II came from his friends, the
four drummers, and he was right.
