HOW TO PACK AWAY
WINTER CLOTHES

The task Of packing away the winter
garments, draperies. and blankets is made
much less unpleasant by using gasoline
or benzine in place of the old-fashioned
moth antidotes.
In the first place go over everything
that is to be put away and do the neces-
sary repairing now, so that IL cold wealth.
er comes sooner than expected they will
be readily for use.
On a sunny, windy day, hang every
thing on the line out of doors, and beat
good, then air for a few hours.
If you have been wise you have saved
all large paper boxes that came from the
dressmaker's, the clothier's, and the
cleaners in which all winter wear may
be packed.
II possible, take a well-lighted room on
a bright day in which to do your pack
Ing, SO that the gasoline may quickly
evaporate.
Upon an ordinary kitchen table, spread
a garment, dip whisk-broom in the gas
oline and sprinkle well. Turn It over and
treat the other side the same way, then
fold neatly. When doing the coats, put
them in boxes long enough to avoid doub-
ling across the length. In folding trousers
keep them In the original creases.
As moths have no liking for printers
ink, newspapers are fine for box Innings,
allowing some to cover over each article
packed.

HOW TO TRAIN YOUNG BIRDS
TO BE VERY FINE SINGERS
By EDWARD s. sCHMID. 4

There are various points TO be observed
and to contend with while breeding ca
naries. By meddling too much with the
nest or eggs, or allowing strangers to
pry about your bird during nesung, rest
less hens will often forsake their nests
and young. The young are sometimes
killed in the egg by loud or near noises,
such as thunder, the firing of a gun,
slamming of a door. &c. a vitiated at
mosphere will encourage uneasiness In
hens, and sometimes cause them to leave
their nests.
Some hens and males will occasionally
pick and main the nestlings. This is
usually caused by vernin that irritate
them, making them peevish and fretful.
After the young birds are fourteen days
old it is always best to put them in a
clean nest and destroy the old one, which
is by this time usually infested with lice.
Lay Eggs in Tepid Water.
When the breeding cage is hung in a
very warm and dry room, it will be bene-
fetal on the day before the young birds
are due to take each egg out of the nest
with spoon and dip it in tepid water.
In order to produce handsome yellow
birds. the male should be a pale yellow,
and the female a deep yellow bird. A
clear yellow bird, mated with a very deep
green hen will probably have handsome
mottled young. 4 very deep yellow male,
mated with very deep green hen. often
produces the beautiful cinnamon bird.
The Washington herald., 1911-04-24

Never allow two crested birds to pair, as
their progeny are likely to be bald or
malformed about the head.
When the young birds are two or three
weeks old, and can eat alone, and some
times before quitting the nest, the males
commence swelling out their Threats and
trying to MARBLE. The sexes may thus be
distinguished, as the females seldom try
10 MARBLE, and when they do. II is always
in less marked degree than the males
II it is desired to make very fine singers
Of the young males. as fine as the highly
Wanted Andreasberg Rollers, they should
be put in small wire cages, separated
from each other, covered entirely over
with coverings of muslin, so that they
can see no external objects and yet have
sufficient light to feed by.
These cages should then be arranged
around the walls of room, the only ten
ants of which are fine singing birds. such
as nightingales, linnets, skylarks, black
caps, &c, and one or two Andreasberg
Rollers, or other trained canares.
The young birds will acquire the notes
Of some. or all of the birds about them.
OF course the longer they are kept in
such a school the more proficient they
become.
If a young canary is hung in a darkened
cage, out of hearing of the songs of all
other birds, and some simple air is
played on the flute, violin, piano, or
organ, three or four times a day, he will
readily pick up part, or all Of 1t, and add
II to his repertoire Of notes

WHAT'S THE STRANGEST
DREAM YOU EVER HAD?
Last Week of Dream Contest
Last Week of Dream Contest.
By JULIA CHANDLER MANI.

Have you submitted that dream OF
ours yet?
Some time in your life you must have
had an odd vision, which is now. most
likely, worth S. or 50, or 81 to you. If
gou Will write It out and send 1t TO me.
For these are the three prizes that will
be awarded the three most curious dreams
submitted in the Strange Dream Con-
test" now in it's second week.
You have read the queer experiences
through which many prize contestants of
last week have passed when far away in
the land of dreams. Many, many more
lie on my desk waiting space for publica-
ton. Is yours among them?
Not n Rhetorical Race.
Some one 'phoned me that she hesitated
to submit her dream because she did not
know just how to write 1t out.
But this is no reason at all for not
sending it, because the contest is not a
rhetorical race, and the wording of the
dream will have nothing to do with the
awarding Of prizes.
All that is required is that your dream
experience be clearly stated and written
on one side of the paper only
Dreams come TO the educated and un-
educated alike, for the dream fairy has
a mind to even up things little during
the night hours and brings, very often,
TO those who have had little educational
advantage some very wonderful expert
ences.
It would hardly be fair then to exclude
these dreamers from the contest because
they made grammatical errors in the
recital of their vision, or spelled a word
incorrectly here and there.
1t is because it would not be fair that
these things into account, only the dream
itself.
Here is a dream submitted by Mr.. w.
Davis Coan. a vision that saved his
brothers life:
1T had been raining and, showing for
some time, then came a freezing spell
making the sidewalks like glass. Our
home was situated some distance from
the city and should you be unlucky
enough, late at night, to miss the car
you would either have to walk or wait
an hour. Between our home and the car
barns was a stretch of lonely road about
a mile long. I tell this so that my dream
may be understood.
Saw Brother in Dream.
y dreamed I saw my brother, who
happened TO have been out late, start to
walk across this lonely road, and as he
came along saw two men, Italians they
seemed to me. step out and order him to
put UP his hands. I saw him strike out
at the one nearest, but the other raised
a piece Of PIPE above his head and struck
and my brother went down.
He lay there for awhile then started
to raise himself up to walk. but every
time he got to his feet he slipped and fell
again. l saw blood running down his
face and his clothes were torn, and l
seemed to try to reach him. to help him
but couldn't, and in the excitement of il
I awoke
THE dream made such an impression
on me that I awoke my other brother
who was sleeping with me.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS
WORTH KNOWING

Iron silk on the wrong side-the iron
will make the right side shiny.
Always keep a little water in wooden
pals or tubs, otherwise they will crack
and fall apart.
A bit of sugar dissolved in the water in
which cut flowers are standing is an
English way of keeping the blossoms
fresh.
To keep pancakes from being greasy
and flabby. do not have the batter too
thick, and be sure that the fat in piping
hot.
Bronze ornaments should be cleaned
with a little sweet oil, polished with a
buster and afterward rubbed well with
a soft channels.
When postage stamps stick together do
not soak in hot water; instead, lay a
piece of sheer paper on top and pass
over with hot iron. This will loosen the
stamps and not remove the gum on the
back.

CARE SHOULD BE EXERCISED
IN CHOICE OF 4 CHILUS SHOE

be carefully made and not too heavy.
with fairly broad soles and a moderately
low heel.
An awkward gait Is sometimes distinct
ly traceable to imperfect footgear. Shoes
that are too heavy for the little wearer
make the child drag its feet and move
clumsily about.
On the other hand, shoes too lightly
soled allow the foot to slip and turn
over" This rarely happens If the soles
are moderately thick and project to an
infinitesimal extent beyond the upper"
and are beveled for the sake OF neat
ness.
If the turning over" is due to a weak
ness Of the ankles the shoes must be
fastened moderately tight to give due
support to the ankles, and a thin extra
strip of leather on the sole and heel of
the shoe on the side that tends to slip
will keep the foot in level position.
Do Not Fnsten Too Tightly.
The shoes, whether they are buttoned
or laced. must not be too tightly fasten-
ed. or cold feet will result, owing to i'm
peded circulation. This will be followed
by the worse evil of chilblains. Some
little children suffer much from cold
feet. Such a child should be given
plenty of fat-forming food-oatmeal, but
ter-and a course OF cod liver oil will be
beneficial
Many a little child is restless when
first put into its cot at night simply be-
cause II feels chilly and its little feet
are cold. A good romp. a cup OF hot
milk, and friction of the feet and limbs
with a little olive oil will bring about a
healthy glow and the little one will settle
off to sleep warm and comfortable.

Editor.
By DOROTHY DIX.
Men complain that women are incom-
prehensible,'' said the first woman, but
l tell you that the most temperamental
book in words of one syllable, that you
can read as you run, compared to just
an average, ordinary, apparently COM
monplace man.
For one thing, there are certain well
classified strata of peculiarities in every
woman's composition that have, as it
were. a signboard of Keep OFF the Grass,
that warns you where to duck and dodge,
whereas each individual man has his
own individual eccentricities and cussed-
ness that no previous knowledge of men
enables you to locate in advance, and
on which you unwarily stumble to your
own undoing.
"Then-and this is where man is the
prize riddle of the .universe-every man
Is one kind of a man to the world and
another kind of man to his wife.
Sometimes he's an angel to his wife and
d devil to the rest of the world, and
sometimes it's quite the other way about.
But, at any rate, We women never
understand men. They always keep US
guessing, and perhaps it's curiosity that
leads US, like Blue Boards wife, into
matrimony to find out what's hidden in
the secret chamber Of a mans soul.
But We Never Find Out.
But we never do find out. We are
poor Blue Beard ladies TO the end Of the
chapter, for we always die just as We
think we are about to get a glimpse
WITHIN.
"Of course. there are millions OF things
about men that we never understand,
but one of the mysteries that puzzles US
most is why a man deliberately picks out
one kind Of woman for a wife and ex-
poets her to be something totally diff
ferent as soon as they are married. It
strikes me that that is the most Illogical
thing on earth, and yet 1t is what intelli-
gent. sensible men do every day of the
week. And yet 1t is at the bottom of
most of the matrimonial misery in the
world.
Men don't act with this unreason
about anything else but toward women.
If a man yearned to be famed by troplc
breezes he wouldn't start on a north
pole expedition II he wanted a fancy
fast trotter to drive on the speedway he
wouldn't buy a Percheon draft horse.
II he wanted a substantial dinner of
roast beef and potatoes he wouldn't or
der omelet souffie and chocolate cellars
IF he started to the north pole he
would expect to be cold. If he bought a
draft horse he would expect It to be
slow. II he ordered fiub-dub sweets he
would expect to have a cloyed palate and
an unsatisfied stomach.
But a man who is still outside Of the
