HOW TO CLEAN CORDUROY.
Baby's Coat May Be Easily Washed a
Home.


How many mothers have worried
over the problem of cleaning baby's
white corduroy coat satisfactorily and
without having recourse to the pro-
fessional cleaners?
The garment may be cleaned as of
ten as necessary if the following di-
rectfons are carefully observed
Shave very thinly bar of some pure
white soap; add with two table spoon
fuls of kerosene to about half pail
of water.
Boil this mixture until it is reduced
one-quarter Use a small portion of
this and plenty of water to cleanse the
garment When sufficiently cleansed
hold the garment spread out as much
as possible while you rinse it up and
down in clear water repeatedly. Be
careful to have the nap running up.
When the pile is raised hang in the
same position to dry. Be careful not
to wiring or otherwise touch the gar
ment. 1t should be fastened to the line
with ordinary clothespins
If by some oversight the nap be-
comes fattened wait until the piece is
thoroughly dry, when brisk rubbing
with hand broom will obviate the
trouble

Odd Tramway Literature.

The Liverpool tramway authorities
have furnished two quaint additions
to the literature of notices. Some years
ago this notice was posted in the Liy-
erpooi cars: Passengers are request
ed to pay no more pennies than the
conductor in their presence punches
holes in their tickets for. This was
criticised, and another effort was massc
and posted Passengers are request
ed to pay no more pennies than for
which the conductor in their presence
punches holes in their tickets" This,
too, was pronounced a failure, and the
officiitls concluded that language had
not yet been invented which would
express what they felt. But don't yoE
know exactly what the official notice
meant? London Standard.

HOW TO BE HAPPY.
Most People Depend Too Much on
Worthless Things.

Worthless Things.
1t is unfortunate, but true, that
youth never relinquishes its search for
personal happiness as long as there is
the slightest chance of attaining it.
Time. energy and heart are recklessly
spent in the seeking, and only when a
woman is hopelessly convinced that
personal happiness has passed her by
will she turn her attention to the beau
tiful and interesting things in life
which lie all about her, but which she
has been too blind to appreciate.
If girls could only be taught proper
sense of values there would be fewer
unhappy women in the world. Per-
sonal happiness is a wonderful thing,
and a life filled with its exquisite light
sheds beauty on countless other lives.
But if, as happens to many, personal
happiness passes one by it does not
mean that ones life is ruined and in
effectual. At least if woman is wise
it does not
Yet so many women having Staked
all on finding personal happiness have
neglected TO provide themselves with
any effective substitute if they miss it.
The unwisdom of this should be appar-
ent to the most thoughtless of girls,
and the girl who thinks seriously will
ask herself this question, IF miss
personal happiness what have to take
its place?''
We'll. asks the eager girl impa
tiently, what is there TO take the place
of happiness ?" And so in the fullness
of her youth she scorns the wise wo-
mans reply. but ip it dwells the germ
of contentment and peace for the long,
barren years that may be hers.
A finely educated, deeply appreciative
intellecf is an excellent substitute for
the tickle thing we call personal happi-
ness. If woman has used her brain
and cultivated her personality to its
greatest extent. though she may never
attain happiness she may gain a great
deal of satisfaction from life

HOW TO IMPROVE FARM STOCK
The Importance of Always Breeding
STRAIGHT.

Straight.
One of the prime objects in mating
farm animals is to increase the hardi-
ness. No matter what other merits
the sire or dam may have, if they are
not strongly constituted they will not
impart that vigor which is so neces-
sary for successful growth. Strictly
thoroughbreds are not always in the
pink of condition They are very apt
to have a weakness that if impaired
to the offspring will result in failure
So that when it comes to mating farm
animals one of the most intricate and
difficult problems that one might be re
quired to solve is presented, and there
should not be any rash ventures made
Those who are affected with the
cross craze, whether in hogs, cattle or
horses, should select the breed that
suits them best. As a general thing
the best breed for any one is the breed
one likes best or of which one can
secure well bred sires with the least
trouble and expense. If a man likes
Poland China and can get good sires
OF that breed he should by all means
breed Poland Chinas; If Chester
Whites, he should select that breed.
If he likes Tamworths for the good
they can do, especially if he has his
pigs come in May and June and keeps
them through the year, then he should
get the Tamworths
Then in seleetio~ r'a'es nlways have
the breeder give an extended pedigree
that is, pedigree that will show the
breeding for at least four generations
on each side Note how often it goes
back to some particular sire Run
ming back two or three times would
not be Objectionable, possibly would
be desirable, but one should be sure
that he is nos breeding so close in line
as to injure the vitality of the herd.

HOW TO USE ODDS AND ENDS
Handy Ways to Utilize Remnants From
the Bargain Counter.

strips of ribbon can be converted into
the little posies of mixed flowers
which can be worn in the center of the

into the tiny tufts. Each one should
be attached around crook" of wire

These pellets can afterward be massed
together to represent elderberries or
ivy with foliage of green satin or silk.
A few yards of beaded net can be
converted even at home into useful
tunic which will entirely metamor-
phose an evening gown. The bottom
of the tunic can be edged with EN-
broidery or fringe which has been sold
probably at fifth of its original price.
A clever dressmaker can frequently
join strips of embroidery together, hid
ing the seams with motif or tassel,
while short remnants of the same pat
tern can often be picked up for CON

were all in one piece.

NO DANGER FROM TELEPHONES

Nearly two years ago the postmas-
ter general at London became inter-
ested in the report that tuberculosis
could be communicated by the use of
the telephones, particularly by those
for public use. In order to confirm
or refute such statement he arranged
that a number of them be selected
from various places and that they be
delivered to a well-known bacterio-
logist for examination Special care
was taken to obtain instruments that
were without the possibility of having
been disinfected or even cIeansed, and
the same care was taken to see that
they reached the testing laboratory in
that exact condition in which they
were removed from public use They
were taken from postofices, railway
depots, meat markets and other places
frequented by the public
The laboratory used is that of ST.
Georges Hospital Medical School,
Hyde Park Corner, S. W., and the
work was done in the Clinical Investi-
cation Department under the super
vision of DR.. H. R. D. Spitta, superin-
tendent.
Washfngs were made of the mouth
pieces and the whole contents were
then injected in guinea pigs. The
animals were kept in separate cages

proved that they were absolutely

phones used in the test no tuibercle
bacilIi were found
