ONE MOTHERS FINE SCHEME.
II Taught Her Children How to Be
Useful In Their Home.

A mother. wishing to make her little
daughters helpful, devised the follow
ing plan:
Each morning she would write upon
a blackboard list of twenty or more
duties for the washing dishes,
sweeping, busting, making beds, etc.
A quarter of tpeSe were little things
that even the fve-year-old boy could
do. like bringing in kindling or giving
the hens water. Each girl in turn
selected one duty. placing her initials
after it, As soon as duty was COM
plcted it was erased from the board.
At first the most difficult work fell
to mother. but soon even the hard
tasks were being selected by the daugh
tiers until they all became proficient i'll
most Of the necessary branches of
homemaking. The plan not only help
ed the mother and taught the daugh-
tiers, but also served to prevent shirk
ing. jealousy and that constant nag
ging which makes life miserable in
many homes.

GERANIUM AS A BAROMETER

none more so than the old fashioned

these necessities quicker, so that their

water. Of course. and light in most
cases, but few realize that il must have
air to breathe ms well. for there is res
piratioa in plants rs well as in human
beings. Plants breathe the air through
the leaves. and much OF their susie
nance comes from that medium. II the
air in II room Is too dry, as in most
steam heated rooms. there Is difficulty
in making some plants live. The air
lacks something that they must have

FUN WITH A COIN.

A pretty trick is to keep coin
spinning by blowing on it through a
tube. The best instrument for the pur-
pose is length of onc-half or one
quarter glass tubing, one end Of which
has been softened in n spirit lamp
flame and drawn out to form nozzle.
with an orifice about one-sixtccuth Of
an inch in diameter. The coin will
tend to travel in the direction Of the
blast, but can be kept on the table
easily by alterations in the position of
the blowpipe. Start the coin spinning
with your fingers and blow on one
edge Of the globelike figure formed by
the'quick rotation.

NEW RECIPE FOR BEAUTY.
Do Not Laugh If You Wish to Remain
YOUNG,

Young.
A new plan for attaining OK retain
ing beauty comes out on the average
once week, and some of the sugges-
tions are sufficiently weird, but one
recently offered has certainly not been
surpassed in strangeness, says the New
York Times London correspondent.
1t is simply that the person who de-
sires to remain young should refrain
from laughter. You must. according
to lady who described the system,
choose between looks and laughter.
The two cannot go together. Laugh
ing lines wrinkles the face.
There has lately sprung up In Lon
don set of expressionless women"
she added. These women-there are
from fifty to eighty Of them ut the
moment steadily refuse to laugh mt
anything. They are all, more or less,
forty years woman's dangerous
age-and It is their daily belief that
by refraining from laughing they are
retaining their looks.
81 first met the high priestess Of the
cult at the last big reception at staff
ford House, and few days later l
went to tea with her.
''She has beautiful but impressive
face. She. does more than keep her
face from smiling. 4 haven't laughed
for two years. she told me with the
nearest approach of joy which she
permits herself; also she avoids all
manual work and strain.
For example, she began to pour
tea and then. apparently remembering
that even this might cause some ex-
preston to come into her face, sud
denly stopped and ordered manserv-
ant to do it for her. a woman can
keep ten years off her face by avoid
ing doing things like that she ex-
planned.
This woman and her following have
almost reduced keeping straight faces
to second nature"

Woman and the Home Sphere
ON YOUR BAKING DAY.

Light, tender doughnuts are made
with cupful of sugar, a teaspoonful
of butter. two eggs and Il cupful Of
milk. Mix In a scant pint OF -four
that has been sifted, with two round
ing teaspoonfuls of baking powder,
making paste that is soft. Stand the
bowl containing 1t on the ice until Ii
is very cold and then roll 1t out and
fry before 1t loses it's shape. The idea
is to make the paste little softer
than can be rolled before it Is stiff
with cold and so to use as little -four
as possible. The doughnuts should be
turned continually while frying.
There is an old fashioned cake which
is possible if one has at hand Il cupful
Of sour cream. Cream the yolks of
three eggs with a cupful of sugar and
when the mixture Is light beat in n
cupful of cream in which has been
dissolved scant teaspoonful of soda.
Then add pint of flour, a little salt
and Il teaspoonful Of lemon extract.
Bake in an oblong shallow tin.

is mistake to turn bread and cake
out on the bread board and then cover
with cloth. Instead have bread
and cake cooler. which can be made
at small cost. Buy about two feet of
rather fine heavy fence wire and get
the tin man to turn down on each end
about four inches Of the wire and bind
the ends with tin to prevent their
scratching everything with which they
come in contact. There could not be
a better cover-for cake and bread.

For Our Boy and Girl Readers
COMBINING PETS IN CAGES.
II Is Selfish to Keep Them Prisoners
For Amusement.

If you keep any pets remember to
attend to their wants regularly. Do
not forget to feed and keep clean any
animal you cage, or, better still, refuse
to keep any animal or bird in cage.
1t is most selfish to keep any pet
merely to hear ii sing or because it
amuses you to watch its vain endeav-
ors to escape. Remember how you
feel when illness keeps you confined,
perhaps to one room, and then you
will understand in small way what
bird, taken from country hedge or
wood, must feel like when Gagged and
kept in dull room, lonely and robbed
ofall that should make its life healthy
and happy.-Our Dumb Animals.

TELL JUDGE OF FEUD.
Each of Two Men Declares Other
Attacked Him.

Washington has a feud. The whole
matter was thoroughly aired in the
United States branch of the Police Court
today when James Conway was arraisned
on a charge of assaulting Jesse Chew.
Both plaintiff and defendant declared the
other was always after him
The particular trouble aired today was
an alleged assault. Chew declared Conway
and three of Conways pals had cornered
him and beat him up" Conway had
struck him over the head with a base ball
bat three times, declared Chew, while
one of Conway's chums had cooked a gun
in Il suggestive manner.
Conway on his part protested that he
was the victim, not the instigator, of the
assault. Conway said that Chew and
three of Chew's pals mad met him on the
street and urged him To do a marathon.
The urging. he said, was accomp .ished
by rain of stones and rocks" AS he
sought a nearby barber shop as refuge
from the storm, said Conway, one of the
rainmakers, who had an interest in the
glass industry, picked up a bottle and
threw at him. The bottle splintered on
the side of the wall. he said, with the re-
suit that several pieces cut his face.
Judge Pugh dismissed the case.

FIELD FORCES BUSY
Smithsonian Participates in
Many Expeditions.
tABORS ARE DESCRIBED
Pamphlet Tells of Explorations Dul-
ing Last Two Years.

The Smithsonian Institution has just
issued an attractive pamphlet describing.
in part, the expeditions which it has or
ganized or participated in during the
field seasons of 1901. covering a wide
variety Of investiga ions conducted both
in this country and broad.
During the past two years the institu-
ton has been represented in eighteen
different exploration and field parties.
The scope of these activities has been
worldwide, but more recently especial
attention has been directed to Africa and
the Panama Canal Zone. Altogether the
institution has had work in progress, I'M
der it's various branches, in the following
countries and states: East Africa, Abys-
sinia. Algeria, Argentina, Brazil, Peru.
Mexico. Panama Canal Zone. Aleutian
Islands. British Columbia. Colorado. Ari-
iona. New Mexico, Wisconsin, Nebraska,
New York. Maine. Massachusetts,. Okla
homa and the District of Columbia.
Resources Not Large.
Unfortunately. as the regular resources
of the institution are not sufficient to
carry on extensive field explorations, it
is often compelled to confine its efforts
to Investigations of limited scope. but of
such d nature as to bear directly on the
progress of science. In this connection
1t has been fortunate in securing the
cooperation of number of public-spir-
tied citizens and scientific Institutions as
Well as several branches Of the United
States government.
The Smithsonian African expedition had
scarcely returned from the held when the
institution received invitations to partici-
pate in two others. organized to explore
the same general region.
The first was Paul J. Rainey's hunting
trip to British East Africa and southern
Ably ssinia. where Mr. Rainey especially
planned to hunt lions with pack of
American fox hounds. The natural his
tory collections that might be secured
were offered to the Smithsonian Institu-
ton, provided an expert field naturalist
be sent to accompany him and prepare
such of the game collected as was de-
sired for exhibition or scientific study.
Edmund Heller. who had accompanied
the Smithsonian African expedition in
such a capacity, was selected and depart
ed with Mr. Rainey In February. 1911.
The collection made has been estimated
to contain some hoo skins of mammals.
together with many birds. reptiles. etc,
and supplements the present African col
lection to a great extent. Nearly all OF
the material is from localities not cover
ed by the earlier expeditions, and some
Of it comes from points, never before
