FIRST IMPRESSIONS

Many parents unfortunately fail to
awaken early enough to their respon-
sibilities toward their children. They
treat them as playthings for the
amusement of themselves and their
friends, laughing at their "cuteness,"
which they later have to punish as
impertinence or temper. AS they guide
the faltering footsteps or hold the
little forms in their arms they think
that they will later devote themselves
earnestly to training them, but for the
present If physical needs are we'll sup
piled and happiness for waking hours
assured it is all sufficient. AS a well
known writer says:
1--WE hardly realize how very early a
baby's education must begin. There
are so few things the tiny. soft. help
training him to do those properly seems
absurd For weeks he does little else
than eat and sleep yet by persistent
effort in one direction or another we
can materially affect his habits in these
particulars. We can make him happy
baby, satisfied with food at regular
intervals and enjoying proper amount
of sleep, or a restless, discontented
atom of humanity, a victim of indiges-
tion and with no realizing sense of the
beauty of repose. So 1t is through all
his childhood. His first lessons in JUS
tice-alas, that they should so often be
in injustice-come from his parents. He
imbibes truth and honor, generosity,
forgiveness and patience. or their op-
posites. almost insensibly from their
example. Actions speak so much louder
than words to children than to grown
persons An arbitrary act, an angry
tone, a hasty blow produces an effect
on the plastic character that cannot be
removed by many eXhortations to right
doing. The fountain that sends forth
this stream must be purified at its
source. The father and mother must
make themselves what they wish their
children to become. Education must
begin farther back than the child him
self if we are to obtain the best re-
suits"

STAINING OLD FLOORS

Sometimes an old floor. if not too
badly worn. can he dressed up to
look very creditable. In any event
IL can be improved. The floor. first of
all. should be thoroughly cleaned: lhe
grease spots and splotches of old paint
can easily be removed with caustic not
ash. The surface should be smoothed
and sandpapered and the cracks filled
with putty or with a preparation made
for this purpose which can be pur-
chased at almost any paint store.
A dark stain-walnut color-can be
made with burnt umber. ground in oil.
and boiled lnseed oil Use onlv small
quantity of umber at first and gradu-
alIy add color until the desired shade
is obtained. The consistency of the
mixture should not noticeably exceed
that of the oil: little turpentine
should be added if it needs thinning.
The stain should be applied with a rag
or brush, preferably rag, and should
be we'll rubbed in. If one coat does
not make the floor dark enough, give
it another.
Twenty-four hours later the waxing
NAV be done Shave a pound of bees
wax into thin strips and let 1t SOAK
over night in a gallon of turpentlne
and apply to the floor with rag, De-
ing careful to spread it evenly. Addi-
tionaI coats of wax from time to time
will add to the polish
If an oak finish is desired, aftef
cleaning the floor with caustic potash
make a solution of lye obtained from
wood ashes to which sufficient copperas
has been added to give the wood the
desired shade This solution must be
anplied with a mop and serves the
same purpose as does the burnt umper
stain for a walnut finish. Varnish when
dry.-Beautiful Homes

A POLISH FOR WOOD OR IRON

A cheap but most excellent polish for
stained floors, furniture or woodwork
of any kind, and also for stoves or iron
fixtures, is mixture of linseed oil and
benzine in equal parts. Put it on with
a soft CLOTH and rub dry Immediately
with another soft cloth. 1t not only
polishes but cleanses and removes
spots.
A quart of this mixture costs but 10
cents, and the oftener 1t is used upon
a stained floor the better. 1t made my
old CRATE seem like new. and left a
rusty stove quite presentable. Upon
fine furniture but little should be used
at a time and that rubbed in imme-
diately, though there is nothing harm
ful about 1t. Remember that the mix
ture is inflammable.

leaving clothes which have been used
with this mixture in the screen porch

enough of a lesson, and once again 1

Sweet Apple Pudding-Two small
tablespoonfuls of butter, half a cup of
sugar. two eggs, one cup of milk, two
cups of flour, two teaspoonfuls of bak
ing powder and half a teaspoonful of
salt. Flavor with lemon. Slice or CRATE

q little grated lemon peel and either
nutmeg or cinnamon. Put part of the

sauce.

SALADS FOR SUMMER

We are indebted to Suburban Life for
the following spring salads which have
been tried and found to be delicious:
1t is generally admitted that as hot
weather approaches salads should be
eaten freely. The following recipes are
for salads which can easily be made
at this time of the year:
Asparagus salad-Cook asparagus in
salted water till tender. Drain and set
away to cool. Make a bed of crisp let
tuce leaves, place on this a layer of
sliced tomatoes. then a layer of the
asparagus, and repeat till You have
used all of the asparagus. Pour over
it French dressing and send at once
to the table.
Pecan salad-To one cupful of
chopped pecan nuts add three cups of
French peas that have been slightly
cooked, drained and chilled. Cover with
mayonnaise and serve in bed Of let
ruce leaves.
Egg salad-Take six hard-boiled
eggs, one head of lettuce. two cups OF
mayonnaise, one can of deviled ham.
Shell the eggs, then split length-wise
without breaking the white portion and
remove the yolk. Rub the yolk and
deviled ham together and mix with
little ,nayonnaise. Place the quarters
of the white on lettuce leaves. heap up
the cavity of each with the mixture VI
ham and yolks. and pour mayonnaise
over all Garnish with halves of stoned
olives
Tutti- Frutti salad-Take palf-pound
of figs cut fine, the same quantity of
stoned and chopped dates, four oranges
cut into small dice, one cnpful OF
canned strawberries. one cupful OF
canned pineapple. juice of one lemon.
half-cup of sugar, and. IL liked, one
cup of sherry. Place in layers, alter
nately, in a glass serving dish, and
stand away several hours before
serving.
Grapefruit and Strawberry salad
Cut grapefruit in half and remove the
tough fiber and part of the pulp. Chop
this pulp, and add to it mashed and
sweetened strawberries. Refill the
grapefruit with the mixture, and set
on ice for one or two hours.
Pineapple salad-This is a good
substitute for pieapple when the lat
ter is scarce and high. Take three
large oranges, peel and remove all the
white skin and cut into thick slices.
Pare two apples and slice them very
thin. Alternate the slices of fruit in a
deep dish; sprinkle with sugar and the
juice of one lemon, and one small glass
of sherry wine. Place on ice for two
hours before serving.

SHORT SKIRTS

The edict that skirts must be shorter
makes a group of women, no matter
what age, look, at a distance, like a
party of school girls. Time was when
the girl of Is or more wore a dress to
her shoe tops and we could distinguish
between the school girl and her married
sister. But now If you judge from the
length of the skirt, they will appear to
be the same age. The stout woman,
who insists on retaining her dignity of
appearance in spite of fashion, will not

GRACE'S STORY
MASS Of LIES
Breckon's Counts Murderer's
Pulse With Watch of the
Murdered Man.

THE strargest mass OF improbable
lies, weak Invention and tangled
stories. is what United states Dis
triet Attorney Breckons brands the
story told 70 him yesterday morning IN
Oahu jail by Anderson Grace. the muir
derer of MANU-. who. having escaped
and been a. liberty for over FIVE
months, was captured Monday night.
Nelodrama, high tragedy and histri-
onics figured in the interview between
Brecaons and Grace. Grace, describing
his suferings ana privations. told
Breckons that man suffering from
fever caused by the long consumption
OF guavas and sugar cane could hardly
be expected 10 answer all az.estions in

Breekons reached out and grasped
the hand OF the negro. Fever. he
said contem ptuously: You have no

probably be about week before We
can sift out the lies and get at the truth
of the matter. Grace insists now that

Grace contends that he simply walk ed

store in the outskirts Of town TO buy
some chewing tobacco. and disappeared
into the country. This story is not be
Heved al all by Breckons. who is sure
that somebody helped the negro out of

mind to learn the truth before he gets
