containing water. If a part floats and
a part sinks 1t is adulterated.
If SCOT falls upon the carpet or rug
do not attempt to sweep until it has
been covered thickly with dry salt. 1t
can then be swept up properly, and
not a stain or smear will be left.

Her Only Criticism.

Little Dorothy not only liked her tea
and coffee to have the appearance of
being real and truly" but she also
liked to taste the flavor OF each. One
afternoon her mother took her to a
friends home, where tea was served
at five o'clock.
The hostess gave to Dorothy what
she usually gave to her own children
o Dorothy's age-in the line Of
liquid refreshments, viz, hot water,
sugar and milk. Dorothy tasted hers
politely and ate her little cakes.
Why, Dorothy, you aren't drinking
your tea, dear. Isn't it sweet enough"
asked the hostess.
Yes, Mrs. c., It's sweet enough"
replied the child.
Then, why aren't you taking it,"
It's too dull" she replied.

Scared WcuId-Be Thief,

Coroner's Physician O'Hanlon was
riding in the subway recently when he
drew from his side pocket OF his coat
his gold watch, which he had hurriedly
dropped there upon getting it back
from the Matchmaker. He was about
to fasten it to his chain and put it in
his Waistcoat pocket when he noticed
a straphanger looking intently at him
The face was familiar, and in a mo.
ment DR.. O'Hanlon recognized the
straphanger as a ~pickpocket hat he
had several times seen in a police
court. Instead of putting his watch
in his Waistcoat he slipped it back
into his coat pocket. Every few min.
utes he drew it out and looked at it as
though in a hurry. Meanwhile the
plcnpocket gradually shifted his posi-.
