To Clean Wicker Furniture.

Dear Miss Doom;
How can wicker furniture be LEANED
and renovated? j. S.
Try %scrubbing it with strong salt
water. If there are shabby pieces, give
the articles a thorough salt water bath
first; scrub well and dry as quickly as
possible in the open air and sunshine.
Should you decide to paint the furni-
ture get well mixed paint, rather tim;
If paint is too thick it will always u
off on the clothing. 1t is well to fin
ish with a coat of enamel to make it
last longer. Enamel does not hold dust
Ike ordinary paint and consequently
is more easily kept clean.

TREATMENT FOR STYE.


A stye is best managed by bathing
the eye frequently with warm water
or with warm po~ppy-water, If very
painful. When it bursts and the ''scab'
falls off an ointment composed of one
part of citron ointment and four Of
spermaceti ointment, we'll rubbed and
mixed together with a bone paper
knife, should be smeared along the
edge of the eyelid every night at go
ing to bed. A grain or two of calomel,
with five or eight grains of rhubarb,
according to the patients age, should
be taken twice a week. BY these
means the complaint may be checked,
but it is often very tiresome and I'M
manageable.

EFFECT OF SUGAR ON TEETH.


A dental authority says that sugar
does not injure sound teeth, but, OF the
contrary, improves them by assisting
the solution of the food, which supplies
lime for their nourishment. Sugar
sometimes cehses pain in .decayed
teeth. As creosote relieves an aching
tooth by coagulating a film of albumen
over the nerve, SO sugar may cause a
tooth to ache by dissolving the albu-
men by which the nerve may be pro-
tected. Negroes. who eat large guam
titles of sugar, have beautiful teeth.

TREATMENT FOR WARTS.

The treatment for warts is to pare
the hard and dry skin from their tops
and then touch them with the small
est drop of strong acetic acid, taking
care that the acid does not run off the
wart on the neighboring skin, for If it
does 1t will occasion inflammation and
much pain. If this practice be con-
tinued once NJ twice daily with regu-
larity, pairing the surface of the wart
occasionally, when 1t gets hard and
dry, the wart may be soon effectually
cured.

Foot Mill viii Do Work.

In reply to a query. What size
windmill would be required to irrigate
a ten-acre ranch" the following re-
ply Is made:
The answer will OF course depend
on the quantity of water required per
acre for good irrigation in that local
ity. II we assume. as a unit. depth
OF one-inch per week-wihch is less
than is usually allowed for irrigation
that gives us a starting point of ten
acre-inches per week. A windmill
will work on the average eight hours
a day. To pump ten acres-inches a
week CSC hours) to a height OF l5O
feet. would require three horsepower
working continuously for that time,
According 10 the pumping capacities
OF windmills. as advertised by manu-
featuring firm. a l6-foot windmill
would require 240 hours to cover ter
acres to a depth OF one inch. The
conclusion is. that II would require
four such windmills to do the WORK
required, that is. to pump ten acre
inches week One 25-foot windmill
would do the work.
