How to Mako Good Coffee.

Here is a recipe for coffee that never
fails: Use a tablespoonful of coffee for
each cupful desired and one spoonful
for the pot Mix with a small quantity
of cold water and bring to boil. a
little white of an egg mixed with the
coffee and cold water or well washed
eggshells added will help to make the
coffee clear, but egg is not essential to
good coffee. After the coffee has boil
ed for few minutes add the quantity
of boiling water desired. Let it sit for
one minute, pour little cold water
into the pot, and the coffee is ready to
serve. Mix cream and sugar IN cup
and pour the coffee into ii. Always
serve coffee and tea very hot.

will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, KIM

purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his COWS yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-

other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only

CARE OF SHOES AND HOSE.
How to Clean the Former and Save
the Latter.

the Latter.
Most girls who have TO darn their
own stockings have given up wearing
pumps. The slipping up and down on
the heels would wear out any stockings
in day, and there was not time at
the end of the week to keep them
mended up.
If trouble is still experienced with all
evening slippers and also the oxford
ties it is an excellent plan to baste
small square Of black silk on the out
side of the stocking just where the
shoe Tubs. This will be found Won
derful relief as regards the knowing
that the heel of ones stocking is sure
to be quite whole. and it will also save
the lining of the shoe itself. When
the stocking is rubbed to hole the
creases in turn wear out the lining of
the shoe.
Just as soon as a shoe lining has
become worn it should be taken to be
mended For very small amount
shoe or slipper can be entirely re-
lined, if necessary, and this will save
the stockings extraordinarily. Many
girls now have bit of suede placed at
the inner side of the heel of the shoe,
thinking it will help to keep low shoe
from slipping.
A girl who finds she gets unreason-
ably tired and has constant backaches
from walking on city pavements may
be reasonably sure that the last Of her
shoe is wrong for her and that the heel
is either too high or placed too far fer
ward. Rubber heels are also great
fatigue savers in city.
For summer white canvas and white
buckskin are generally worn with
white gowns. but for the morning rus
set shoes and stockings are equally
smart for young girls. To get their
brown shoes to Il good color they
should take the trouble of always
cleaning and polishing them them
selves. If it is desired to keep the
leather light in color the shoes should
be polished as seldom as possible and
the polish allowed to dry thoroughly
when first applied before being rub
bed. 1t is more fashionable nowadays,
however, for the tan shoes to acquire
as quickly as possible dark reddish
hue. A banana peel rubbed evenly
over the surface and the leather allow
ed to dry out we'll before being shined
with the liquid polish will darken the
shoes rapidly, and a few applications
of sweet oil will give the same result
and also help to make the leather
waterproof. The liquid polish and the
paste must be put on very evenly to
avoid marking and staining, and a
clean rag and soft brush should al
ways be used. Special shoe polishing
gloves are now to be bought, which
greatly simplify the process OF nome
shoe cleaning, as they keep the hands
absolutely clean.

How to Clean Paint.

The ordinary whitening sold by gro
GERS and stores is excellent for clean
ing paint and does not injure 1t In the
least. Mix it with cold water TO the
consistency of cream, wiring a clean
cloth out of warm water. squeeze it
as dry as possible. dip it in the whiten-
ing mixture and rub the paint until all
the stains disappear. A wooden skew
er such as butchers use is excellent
for pushing the cloth into crevices and
corners. Rinse off the whitening with
warm water and clean clo;h and
then wipe the paint as dry as possible,
If rubbed until quite dry the polish
will be restored to the paint and ii
will look like now.

Gaul when Pan was worshiped in

timbers were hoisted on to a troll

fever, drove their load through the
streets of London, and then through
kensington Gardens. What have
you got there, mates?' was shouted
by soldier encamped in the gar

answer came back: "A Roman
