WEEKLY CLEANING.
Best Plan For Keeping the Home In
Order.

Best Plan For Keeping the Home In
Order.
Sensible furnishings and systematic
weekly cleaning q away with the OLD
time "housecleaning." There need
never be a time when the house Is
torn up frem attic to cellar. Deco
rating and repairs may come at easy
intervals IL one chooses.
The items below are suggestions as
TO order and method in the weekly
cleaning OF a room.
Clean movable draperies, ornaments
and small furniture and take from
Toom.
Dust and roll up shades.
Remove smaller rugs and clean
them,
Brush. dust and cover larger pieces
of furniture.
Brush higher woodwork and walls.
Dust picture frames and wipe backs
OF smaller pictures.
Shake out window and other large
araperies and pin up.
Sweep heavier rugs and roll up.
Dust gas fixtures.
Clean the floor.
Up 10 a certain point q feather
buster is allowable. When the dust
has settled 1t should be removed by
uaing a slightly dampened cloth. As
ordinarily performed busting simply
whisks the lint from one place to an
other. Ideas of busting are nany
and varied; some dust only what is
In sight, others what might be seen
and a few dust everywhere. They
never fail to wipe the window sashes
where they meet and lock. They open
all doors and clean them on top and
two sides as well as back and front.
More than that, they dust the easing
where the door touches when closed.
One never finds a solid black line
down their door castings.
Windows may be cleaned at any
convenient time when In the shade.
A little alcohol in the water keeps It
from freezing on the glass In cold
weather.

EXCITING
Fight Occurs In South Ver.
non Tuesday Evening

A great deal of excitement was
created in South Vernon on Tuesday
evening when general row started
over the shooting of some fireworks.
1t seems that fued has been in exist
ance between two factions in the
neighborhod for some time and was
brought to head when one of the
participants in the trouble was hit in
the eye with brick,
The trouble occurred on the Coium-
bus road directly in front of the home
of woman by the name of Booher,
located on one side of the road and
William McNally. located on the other
side. The fireworks were being ex-
ploded in front of the McNally home,
according to the report, and Mrs.
Booher raised objection because OF
the fact that the balls from the Roman
candles and the sparks from other
fireworks were falling in her yard. An
argument followed and the woman,
becoming enraged, threw piece of a
brick and struck McNally squarely in
the eye. Arrests will probably follow
the trouble.
