Following Mr.. Taft's declaration
that the Instruction IN Mexico had
proceeded long enough and should
be ended, President Diaz set TO work
TO stamp out the rebellion.

Every woman has exper1enced the
modification of one OF those exasper-
ating, hacking little coughs which
tickle the throat and seem to grow
worse the more one tries to overcome
them.
They always come upon n just at
a time when the kindly cough drop
has been left at home and 1t is i'm
possible to procure the saving sip of
water.
Many a on1a has hastily left her
seat In a church with a red face and
the echo of a hacking little cough fol.
lowing her down the aisle and into the
vestibule when the trouble might have
been conquered in q very simple way.
A cough drop is not at all essential
to the stopping of a tickling cough.
A bit of paper torn from the corner
of a hymn book leaf or any available
pamphlet or leafet will answer quite
as well as the bit Of h~oarhound or
licorice, for the action of the throat
muscles In masticating the bit OF pa
per and the consequent flow of saliva
soon eapes the cough, and by the time
the paper il reduced to q pulp the
cough wal have ceased and ones nerv-

Tuning Bells.

what q beautiful tone that bell
hasi' is often heard. There are few,
however. who know how a bell re-
ceives It's joyful or solemn tones. All
bells after they are cast and finished
must go through af process of tuning
the came as any other musical instru-
ment before they respond with a clear,
true tone. Every bell sounds five
notes, which must blend together In
order to produce perfect harmony. The
tuning of a bell Is done by means of
shaving thin bits from various parts
OF the metal. 1t lis as easy for an ex-
pert bell tuner to put a bell In tune
as 1T is for a plano tuner to adjust his
instrument to perfect chords. At first
thought it would seem that a bell
would be ruined should a tuner share
of too much at the last tuning, or the
fifth sound, but such is not the case.
He would, however, be obliged TO be-
gin over, starting again with the first
tone and shaving the bell till it gave
forth It's harmonious sound at the nth
tone-Scientinc American.

stage Snow.


In ~"Personal/ "reminiscences Of Hen.
ry Irving Bran Stoker let's his read
ers into the secret Of how the snow
scene in 'The Corsican Brothers" was
made so effective:
"Alf over the stage was a thick blan-
ket OF snow, white and glistening In
the winter sunrise-snow that lay 30
thick that when the duelists, stripped
n armed, stood face to face they
each secured a firner foothold by
clearing 1t away. or many wonderful
effects this snow was perhaps the
strongest and most impressive Of real
tty. The public could never imagine
how 1t was done. 1t was salt-common
coarse salt-which was white in the
appointed light and glistened like real
snow. There were tons of 1t. A crowd
of men stood ready In the wings with
little baggage trucks such as are now
used In the corridors of great hotels,
silent with rubber wheels. On them
We're great wide mouthed sacks full OF
salt. When the signal came they rush
ed in on all sides. each to his appoint
ed spot, and tumbled out his load,
spreading 1t evenly with great wide
bladed wooden shovels."

Bargain papsr;no.

A young woman who thinks she can
not repaper her room this season be-
cause she cannot afford 1t should make
sure that cost Is prohibitive before re-
signing herself to dirt.
One girl has just papered a bedroom
eharmlngiy at a total cost of less than
SO. Reading of bargains in wall paper
one day, abe noticed some that were
reduced to a cent or two a roll.
Her. family insisted the results would
be dreadful, but the selection was
made OF a nice quality Of figured
cream ceiling paper at a CEN a roll for
the wallis and a narrow rose border at
2 cents q yard.
The border was cut out by the girl
herself and run at top of room and
down the sides of each corner.
The paper was put on By q country
p~aperhanger, a friend of the cook, at
much less than the usual rates. It
would have been possible to have done
the papering oneself, but the work Is
not likely to give satisfaction, though
many are fairly skilled paper
hangers.
Most stores have bargains In paper,
though few as cheap as the one de-
scribed. BY taking advantage of them
a room can be freshened for a surpris-
ingly small sum of money.
