LITTLE SWEET BOX

viii Commend It to the
Housekeeper.

A sweet box" has become an instl-
tuition in our family 1t consists of a
stout cardboard box, lined with a
sheet of wadding generously sprinkled
with favorite sachet powder. The
wadding is glued over the top edge,
thus making the cover fit tightly. 1t
contains two or three loose, very
sweet sachets. Any little gift or bit
of work, if laid away for day or
two in the sweet box with sachet
between its folds, comes out delicious
ly perfumed. All through the year we
find many things are sweetened that
would not be, were it necessary to
hunt up or buy sachet powder each
time.

saying that she was going for walk. She
went to boathouse which projected over the
water on the shore of the lake, closed the door
and was found there in the water by Earl
Berry of Morrill, who went for the boat to 90
fishing She had apparently been in the water
hardly more than 10 minutes and there were
signs of life. DR.. C. B. Holt endeavored to re-
suscitate her but two hours efforts were un-
availing. She was 40 years old, the widow of
Fred Gilman, and leaves daughter, Miss
Fanny Gilman, and a brother, Postmaster G.

and generally beloved in the community, which
is greatly shocked and grieved by the tragic
ending of her life.
