In a strong, to.the-point article, Karl
Granville Baker in Suburban Life for De-
cember, when discussing the horrors of
the grade crossing, draws the follow
ing vivid pen picture: ain the short
space of two minutes, fifty laughing,
light hearted, happy school children, rid
ing peacefully along in an electric car,
were sacrificed before the terrific, oncom-
ing rush Of monster engine-given inn
petus by a heavy pressure of loaded
cars behind IT.. The electric car was
split in billion morsels. Innocent, ST.
lent bodies strewed the railroad tracks.
Blood was shed ruthlessly. There was
lamentation and the misery of weeping
that night in three score Of homes
pitiful, broken hearted mothers franti-
cally and hopelessly calling their chill
dren by name. There were fathers with
long drawn-out-age lines suddenly en-
graved in their pallid features, by the
sharp cutting hand Of abject desolation.
The mandate of Herod had descended in
a tightening flash, and marked the door
ways-a second terrible slaughter of in
notwithstanding death and sorrow, a
river of agonized, bitter tears, and
pitiful heart-cry wrung from bereft
mothers, that must have assembled
straight to the throne of God"

Raising Sheep for Profit.

G. H. Dacy, writing in Suburban Life
for December, says: at costs about two
cents day to winter and mature a
sheep on good grain and roughage, while
the summer pasturage per sheep is worth
about sixty-fye cents for the season.
Six Shropshires or eight Southdowns can
be accommodated on the same amount
of pasturage that would be necessary
to feed one dairy COW. In addition, the
sheep can be turned into small grain and
stubble after these crops have been har-
vested, where they will clean up all the
waste, In addition to feeding on weeds
and thereby aiding in their extermina-
tion from the farm. Many practical
sheep owners who started with small
flock of grade ewes and pure bred ram.
claim that their profits, the first year,
not only paid for the animals and their
feed during that period, but also allowed
them to raise the best eve lambs in
the flock for breeding purposes. With
wool selling for Is to 81 cents per
pound and spring lambs bringing SO to
81 per hundred pounds, such results are
quite to be expected in successful sheep
farming"

Child Entertaining for Pay.

ANY woman, of whatever age, who
loves children and has a room in which
to entertain them, may conduct this
novel occupation as a business with
great success. A plainly furnished room
without carpet is the best for the pur-
pose.
Children from to s years of age may
be taken for two or three hours at a
time while the mother goes shopping,
rests or attends to special home duties
requiring her undivided attention. For
this service cents an hour could be
charged. Have definite hours when the
children may come, say from Q to IL in
the forenoon and in the afternoon from
2 until o'clock. When it is taken into
consideration that 10 or 10 children may
be entertained at one time as easily as
one, you can see that the work would
pay, says a writer in the Chicago Tri-
bune.
It is the women of moderate means
who do their own homework, or whose
servants are incompetent, who will make
this plan workable. If a child is too
small to go alone to and from this play.
room, it should be conducted by one OF
the older children. The entertainers
duties commence ON the ehild's arrival
and cease with its exit from her house

Some Important Don'ts.

The woman who wants TO look youth
full and beautiful must not neglect the
care OF her eyes-and, incidentally, the
brows and lashes, for these affect both
the health and beauty of the eye. There
is peculiar fascination about pair
Of fine eyes that no woman can afford
to ignore. The first thing to be looked
after is their health. No eyes that are
not healthy can possibly be beautiful.
IL there is anything wrong with your
sight consult an oculist, and never al
low any one but skilled person to
tamper with them, says an exchange.
If you have nice eyes and wish TO keep
them, here are some simple "don'ts' TO
remember:
Never read facing the light,
DO not read with the head lowered
Hold the book on level with the
eyes.
Don't read on a moving train.
Don't read while you rock
Don't tax your eyes when you are
tired or hungry.
Don't try to read just one minute
more in the dusk.
Don't use your eyes when they smart.
Smarting means that it is time to give
them rest
Don't unnecessarily face the bright
sunshine.
Don't form nervous habits with the
eyes.

Christmas Is the Birthday of One Who
Never Gave to the World a Dollar.

In the December Woman's Home Com
panion, DIR. Charles L. jefferson. pastor
of the Broadway tabernacle in New
York, writes great Christmas sermon.
One of the eloquent passages in it fol-
lows:
ut is worth remembering that Christ
mas is the birthday of Jesus, the man
who never gave the world dollar. He
bestowed upon mankind not solitary
material gift. He carved no statue,
painted no picture, wrote no poem, com
posed no song, furnished no piece Of
jewelry, built no edifice, founded no city,
erected no triumphal arch; but He
stands in history as the great Oliver.
Silver and gold He had none, but such
as He had He gave to men, the gentle
touch of a sympathetic hand, the golden
glow of genial mind, the healing love
of generous heart, the bracing energy
OF courageous spirit. Paul calls Him
Gods Unspeakable Gift, The best
thing God is able to give us is not gold
or silver, or costly stones, but Him
self
1T is when we give of the things of
the spirit that we escape from the realm
of embarrassments and burdens Into
spiritualized Christmas we everyone
can enter, the rich and the poor
Che high and the low, the small
and the great.
"Tn preparing, then, our Christmas
presents, let us get ready to give some
OF the things which Jesus gave. Along
with the many gifts which have prices,
LET us give few which are priceless.
Let us give thought to someone who
needs it, sympathy to someone who
Graves it but does not get it, kindness
to someone whom the world has over
looked, affection to someone who is
starving for it, inspiration to someone
who is fainting because of the lack of
it. Ones Christmas does not consist
in the abundance of the things which
he receives or gives away, but in the
spirit of good win which fills his heart. .

Brushes in Different Forms.

There are a number of brushes that
are of great assistance not only during
housecleaning days, but for any and
every season Of the year
After beating, one finds thick lay
er OF dust around the edges Of uphol-
stored furniture that cannot be removed
without the aid of good brush. They
can be had now, these brushes with a
pointed end that seeks out every little
crease and fold in the material or wood
work and cleans it PERFECTLY.
Another is fitted with a brush at each
end, one to get into corners and another
to brush flat surfaces. This will find
a multitude of uses in daily housekeep-
ing besides the brushing Of furniture,
says an exchange.
The task of cleaning a radiator or un-
derneath the bathtub is made easier by
one of the long, thin brushes, fitted
with slightly curved handle, which
have been designed for Just such pur-
poses. II goes into the cracks and cleans
where it would be almost impossible to
reach with a cloth.
The buffers brush is another iov to
the heart of the busy housewife. Here
we see il with one end fashioned like
a toothbrush and the other round and
soft, to remove particles of dust from
the most delicate bric-a- brac, while into
the corners goes the other end, which
has been dipped into warm water in
which a little ammonia has been dis
solved. After such treatment the china
cannot help but be clean.
For fine cut glass and crystal that is
plain we have big round brush made
Of the softest bristles, so that there
will be no scratching of the delicate tex
ture of the glass. Hot water and ann
monia are best to use when washing
glass, but be sure to rinse we'll with
clear hot water and polish with tissue
paper
Last of all comes the bottle brush,
and this has many uses. Bottles Of all
kinds, especially milk bottles and baby's
nursing bottle, must be cleaned with
this style of brush. Cruets, decanters,
water BEETLES, pitchers, lamp chimneys or
anything that has depth can be washed
clean with the useful bottle brush.
), If you are attempting to keep house
without the aid of any of these brushes
go and provide yourself with at least
few of them and see how many tasks
are lightened by their use,
