RELIGION OF THE SWORD
Merit Of Fighting for the Faith Sur
passed Every Other With Follow
ers Of Mohammed.

After the Hejira the merit of
fighting with the sword for the
Eman, or faith, surpassed every 9TH
er merit. A drop Of blood shed in
the cause Of Allah would be of more
avail than two months of fasting
and prayer. To be slain in battle
meant all sins were Immediately for
given; the most awful wretch in his
earthly life being at once waited up
to paradise, there to enjoy in the
arms Of the dark-eyed houris an eter-
nal sensual felicity.
Mohammed's constant sanction for
everything that he said or did was a
direct message from Allah, sent by
the Archangel Gabriel. II the ques-
ton arose whether or~not a plumber
ing expedition would be undertaken ;
in what way the booty was to be di-
vided; whether a whole tribe was to
be put to death, or even whether a
new wife was to be added to his
harem (they finally amounted to

Hints for Young Housekeepers.
FURNISHING A BEDROOM.

In furnishing a bedroom
where there is limited space, it is
well to have as many things as
possible which will hang up, !"
says Christine Terhune Herrick,
in Woman's Home Companion
for March. THE shoe-bag
which hangs on the inside of the
closet-door should have pockets
deep enough to accommodate
shoes holding trees. Provide a
bag of some suitable wash mate
rial for soiled handkerchiefs and
hang this where it will be Access
.sible.
Cleanliness in a bedroom cam
not be too strict. busting with
a damp cloth should be an every
day affair. If the walls are
painted, they should be wiped off
4
every few weeks with a cloth
wrung out in suds to which a
little kerosene has been added.
When there is a washstand the
furnishings of this should have
daily care. The inside of the
bowl, pitcher and slop-jar should
be washed with hot water and
soap, and the last-named article
should be scalded out daily. The
soap-dish should be washed
thoroughly every day.
Special attention should be
given to making the bed. Every
morning It should be entirely
stripped and we'll aired, the COW
ers turned down over the foot on
a chair placed there to keep them
from contact with the floor, the
mattresses tilted up that the air
may get to both sides. The
mattress, must be turned daily.
When the bed is made the mat
tress-cover should be laid on
smoothly, the lower sheet tucked
down all around before the upper
sheet goes on. The latter must
be put under the mattress at the
foot far enough to insure against
working up at night and yet suf-
ficient must be left free at the
top to protect the face and neck
from contact with the blanket.
The blanket must be tucked in
at the foot and sides, the spread
must be arranged less securely,
SO that it may be taken off when

cooked on one side and ready to

is turned, if the work is done
quickly, the frst'one is ready to

It must be remembered that the
center of the griddle is usually

Hauling Mail Poor Business.

81 The history Of the Govern
ment and the Railway Mail bust
ness, that is, the hauling of the
mail all over this country by the
railroads is one of series of
reductions in pay. Notwith-
standing the fact that the SER
vice everywhere has been large
ly increased, the pay has been
steadily decreased. Congress
has repeatedly cut the pay and in
addition to this, the Post Office
Department itself, whether legal
" or not, has also made further
reductions. Notwithst n d in &
these facts, postal clerks are
transported free between the
ends Of their runs and their
homes on the lines of the rail-
roads. Notwithstanding h S
fact, the railroads are RESPONSE
bic for any accident o. any in
jury done them in transporting,
the same as though they were
paying first class fare. The loss
through transporting clerks free
amounts to over S1,000,000 per
year to the railroads.
This is but one of many sam
pies of cheap treatment on the
part of the post office and the
Government towards the rail-
roads.

A WINDOW WASHING HINT.

A WINDOW WASHING HINT.
: Do not put soap into the water
with which windows are to be
washed. A little borax or house
hold ammonia may be added.
Use very little water. Wipe off
the window-casing with dry
cloth and rub it over the glass as
well before you begin to wash.
This removes the dust which
would otherwise streak the pane.
The cloth should be we'll wrung
out before it is applied to the
to the glass and this should be
rubbed dry at once. A small
quantity of kerosene added to
the water gives polish to the
glass and in winter a little alco-
hol in the water keeps it from
freezing On the pane. Old news
papers rubbed soft in the hands
are admirable for giving the
glass final polish.

FASHION is TOO ExacTINn
Men, Too, Are Revolving Against the
Frequent and HIdeous Changes
In Styles.

At last the human worm is turn
ing in revolt against the too extreme
demands of fashion. Even the ladies
are growing FESTIVE under the ex-
actions, and as for the men SAM
pie Of the way many of them feel is
given in the following protest sent
by NJ. N. S. to the Springfield Re-
publican and published in that news
paper: "Hurrah for the stand
against the proposed foolish changes
in styles for men, and the darn
please policy! / for one am ready
for the question. The whole matter
Of dress is today no end foolish and
disgusting. The only argument that
can be presented in favor Of these
frequent and hideous changes is one
that is Familiarity met with. If it
were not for the changes in styles,
armies of men and women in the dry
goods and tailoring business would
be without an occupation This is
good argument, and one that can
be used with effect on nearly all the
questions of the day, if that is what
we are here for-to make business.

One of the latest ideas in Paris
is the establishment of a vocal Ii

Bibliotheque Rationale, which is to
consist Of a collection of graphic
phone records of words spoken or
sung by great orators, singers and
actors. The library will be equipped
with abundant instruments for trans
mission Of the recorded sounds to the
ears Of visitors. Thus in the future

the attention Of the jury fag."
So well did these women perform
their duty as jurors that Judge Miles
complimented them In the highest
terms for the intelligence which they
displayed. The New York World re-
ferred to the matter as follows:
"A jury Of women drawn from a
regular venire and trying case with
an intelligence and dispatch which
won a tribute from the court must be
thought to come pretty near the realiz-
alton of women's dreams of political
equality 1t has been left to the state
OF Washington to furnish this example
of complete feminine emancipation.
Eastern suffragist leaders may profit
ably study the methods by which their
sister campaigners in the west have
obtained the grant of full suffrage
rights. The important thing is that
the rest Of the country may now
watch the operation of an experiment
in political rights, the outcome Of
which will have a direct bearing on
/ the progress of woman's cause every
where. But jury composed of a gov
ernor's private secretary, a supreme
court stenographer and the wives of
physician, a minister and a leg
islative candidate is of exceptional
character. If all juries of men were
of like caliber the jury system would
be ideal"
Washington has reason to be proud
or the record Of it's women Jurors. In
its territorial days women possessed
the suffrage from 1888 to 1889 and it
was not unusual for them to serve on
juries with men. The history of that
time states that Mrs. Julia Hawley
OF kirkland served on a grand jury
for three weeks and on the Petit jury
for seven weeks and was compIimented
by judges for her wisdom and fair
ness"
