Fall House Cleaning.
Aniel.


At the present day, with our homes
furnished with regard to comfort.
taste and simplicity, house cleaning
time does not disorganlze the family
life or appear to disturb its every day
routine, With polished floors and rugs
the house cleaning is done on each
sweeping d y.
In the semiannual cleaning time we
reverse the usual methods of progress
and begin at the top. The attic is
cleaned and aired, together with the
clothing closets, boxes and drawers
If every box and drawer is labeled
with its contents a great deal of time
may be saved when an article is want
ed. Much of this work may be done
on rainy days except the airing Of
room and clothing The cellar Is one Of
the most important parts of the house
to need a thorough going over. II
should. of course, be aired often. and
no decayed fruit or vegetables allowed
to remain In II and contaminate the
air above. All pipes Of the furnace
should be cleaned and made ready for
winter.
The ideal house Of today. as far as
the ease with which It Is kept clean is
concerned. is one with smooth, well.

When we are wise enough and have
sufficient courage, and individuality
enough to let our homes express our.
selves and not another's good or bad
taste, there will be a marked improve

decoration. When we learn to regard
our homes as expressions of ourselves
as is the sensitive instrument Of the

Beating Eggs.

There Is a real science in beating
eggs. In many OF the household proc
esses failures might be averted II the
why OF things were a little more
studied. The amount OF beating de-
pends upon the dish to be made for
Instance I'm a custard the eggs are
only beaten enough 10 mix them with
out beating in air. Yolks OF eggs for
a cake can hardly be beaten too long:
but the white OF egg II beaten until
dry and after, begins to lose lightness
as the air cells are broken by too long
beating.
We beat the white OF eggs TO incor-
porate all the air possible and when
beaten stlff they are expanded by the
air caught and held In the egg by the
beating. A wheel beater like the Dover
Is the best for mixing the yolks OF
eggs but the wire whisk is better for
beating the whites as the object is to
get in as much air as possible. Whites
Of eggs should be beaten !n shallow

air When adding the white OF egg to
mixture care should be taken In
folding It in, taking deep strokes.
striking the bottom OF tine bowl each
time and turn the bowl OF the spoon
over as It is brought up.
The old idea that cake should be
stirred only one way to insure a light.
FUZZY cake, when thought out is rea-
sonabe as we beat a cake to make IL
light. that is, light with air, then II we
stir first to the right and then TO the
left the air cells and gas liberated by
leavening powders escape and the
cake is not as light when baked.
The little salt which many cooks
add to the white of the egg when beat
ing II toughens the albumen OF tho
egg and makes II hold more air. so We
say eggs beat up lighter when salt 10

Gapes in Chicks.

Prof. Surface in reply TO a ques-
tion as to what will prevent or cure
gapes In chicks. says The disease Is
due to little worms in the windpipe
which come from chicks eating eRrth
worma he suggests simple RENE
dy applying kerosene oil by dipping
the tip Of feather into it and insert
ing 1t into the windplpe Of the chick.
Strip the shank of the feather OF its
eide barbs leaving only the tip TO re-
main rs soft feather brush. Open
the mouth of the chick, pull the
tongue out slightly and insert the
feather. One touch Of the oil will
hll the worm even If it Is not re
moved with the feather. For lice on
chicks q drop of grease on the head
and nader tho wings, fresh lard with
out salt is best, aud little under the
wings Of the mother hen will free
them from the pest.

Taxes on Corporations

The Supreme Court OF the United
States has redoketed the income tax
case on corporations. The tax will
aggregate about s25, 900, 900 Of rev
enue annually for the Government,
which urgently needs increased rev.
enues. The case now goes over until
October. This little delay is the
initial disappointment In this matter
which is 30 pave the way for the
great disappointment yet to coma.
when the August court decides the
tax unconstitutional. as Is most
likely. Congress can levy all the
taxes it wants on poor people, by
taxing theirneeds, such as hosiery
gloves, dress goods, etc., but let Con
gress lay its gentle hands, however
lightly. ON the great corporations,
and the federal court snaps the Law
into shreds, as If Il were q cobweb.
The fact is just beginning to dawE
on the American people that we nc
longer govern ourselves We really
live nnder an imperial government
and the Federal Courts constitute thG
Emperor, for the Federal Judges are
appointed by the great corporations
and those judges almost invariably
uphold the rapacity and oppression
which We suffer at the hands Of thI
corporations. The laws that Con
eress pass, do not amount to an,
more than the laws of the RussiaI
Douma, where they are aimed q
corporate abuses, and yet we ridicul'
the Douma.

This bill tixes at 65% the amount Of

The amount Of funds that may be
