THINGS IT'S WELL TO KNOW
Dried Coffee Grounds Good to Fill Pin.
eushlons-Vinegar Removes the
odor Of Paraffn.

Dried coffee grounds answer well for
filling a pincushion; they do not at.
tract moths like wool nor mice as
bran does.
Timed fruits should be turned out
OF the tins two hours before using:
the flavor Of 1t is greatly improved by
this treatment.
Vinegar will remove the disagreed.
Die odor of parafin from earthen and
tin ware; dip a rag into the vinegar
and scour the vessel with II.
Gas stoves require a good deal
more cleaning than they often get. A
dirty stove is the cause Of a disagree
able smell in the house.
Use old curtains or newspapers to
rub them over after cooking. then
polish with CRATE polish; finish of
with an old piece of velvet or fan.

his own advantage is affected. or
his own digestion improves or
sOurs. Both parties are honestly
anxious for the improvement Of
the world, but each vents it done
his way, and especially not the
other fellows way. To put your
opponent in the hole is considered
craftsmanship and to beat your.
own principle in order TO retain
It as an issue, is declared patriot
ism. The conservative will change
TO a radical, and the wild man
will tame himself over night If
he thinks he can carry the prh
mary by dong so. One party is
called the "Standpatters," the
other the "HellraiserS." The
state prOspers by licking first
one and then the other, which
ever gets too fat and sassy.

The Narrow Skirt,

It is said that a garment is never
fashionable to woman when It be-
comes too fashionable. From this ar.
gument is predicted the downfall Of
the narrow skirt. It Is even limited
that this is the psychological moment
for the appearance again Of the erin.
oline.
But even II this disaster does not
descend upon fashionable women It IL
argued that a reaction in favor Of a
more capacious skirt is inevitable.
All these agitators forget the fact that
woman Is not always swayed by
whims, and the comfort and hygiene Of
the moderately MARROW skirt Is too
pronounced to b quickly discarded by
even the most nokle.

DRINKING LEMON AND WATER
Morning Beverage Good for the Com
plexlon-How to Keep the
Cut Fruit Fresh.

Lemon and water taken early each
morning has become a common drink
among women who value their com
plexions. Nothing keeps the digestion
In better condition.
Since sugar is not used, there is no
danger Of acid even for equity and
rheumatic subjects.
Do not use too much lemon. The
juice Of third or half the fruit Is
enough. To keep the cut lemon fresh
for several days is something of a
problem.
Cut OF only the section to be used
and squeeze the Juice from the cut
portion. The rest can be turned, cut
side down, in cup or 1t can be put
in the same position on waxed paper.
This should be big enough to fold over
the leTon and keep out the air
Treated in either Of these ways. a
lemon will keep several days even in
hot weather. Do not stand in a warm
closet nor where the fruit will freeze.

Official Aid to The Farmer.

Within Il few decades our gem
eral and state government have
become quite paternal in very
important way, that of assistance
to husbandry. Agricultural de-
partmcnts at Washington and
various states are constantly
alert to gather information to
assist the farmer, the horticul
turist, the livestock producer,
and to disseminate that infor-
nation where it will DC Of prac-
teal benefit by special railroad
trains of instruction, by prompt
answers to letters of inquiry and
by the personal assistance Of
trained agents. To promote the
productiveness of the soil, to al
ternate crops to the best advan-
tagc to the farmer, to eradicate
disease in cattle, to reduce the
clouds of destroying insects and
other pests of growing things
are among the objects of instruc-
ton.
Next to measures to prevent
disease among the people or to
reduce the mortality lists, a
government, whether of nation
or state, could not better en-
ploy moneys produced from tax
alton than by methods Of in
struction that will increase the
wealth producing power Of the
whole country. AS in all other
lines of public employment,
there will be found some waste
in this, certain percentage of
sinecures, but there are already
splendid results from much of
the expenditures.
A solitary instance to the point:
A young man was compelled by
i'll health to leave the desk in
Cincinnati and attempt farming
on a small scale close by. He
knew absolutely nothing about
cultivation of the soil, about
production Of grains OF fruits.
A short study of books might
have enabled him to run small
hennery, but his necessities COM
PEELED product on of crops of
some kind. He appealed to the
Ohio Agricultural Bureau at
Wooster. Promptly came to him
an agent who knew what to do.
This man made a quick, COM
prehensive study of the soil of
the farm, instructed the client
how to fertiliZe and how to cult
vate, what to plant here and
what to SOW there; and all with
out any expense for the INTEL
igent and effective instruction.
The result was that in his second
year on the farm the man clcare !
e. 200 and had back his health.
These agencies of help in agri-
culture all over our great country
will not only teach us advanced
methods in fertilizer, cultivating
and gathering crops, in protec-
ton from the innumerabIe
agents Of destruction and in 9TH
er valuable instructions, but they
will soon come to the thought of
proper economy of land for agri-
culture; TO the idea of utilization
Of the millions of acres that have
always lain idle along roadways.
Already in Iowa this thought has
growth. Cincinnati Enquirer
