HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Rhubarb is rich in oxalic acid, which does much to tone up the system. Onions contain much nutrition, but are most valued for their pungent oil, which is rich in sulphur.
 Raisins may be easily stoned if boiling water is poured on them and they are left in it for short time.
 Spinach. containing a large amount of iron, can scarcely be ignored as a valuable spring vegetable dish.
 Beets. carrots and parsnips all cons tain large percentage of sugar. Car rots and parsnips, when young and tender, are very nutritious.
 Save your fine tissue papers for packing clothes, crushed .and inserted in sleeves and shaped waists or coats, as it prevents creases forming. Tan boots and shoes can be reno- rag dipped in olive oil and afterward polishing with piece of old velvet. To render boots and shoes water proof in damp weather, rub little mutton suet round the edges of the soles. Beeswax is just as eff1cacious.
 waxed paper is excellent for wrap ping about foods to be put away in the refrigerator, or cheese and like edibles which are kept in dry place.
 Asparagus, cabbage. caulifioWer and celery are chiefly valued for their min eral salts and for the bulk. variety and relish they give to the diet.
 When going away for the summer. paste paper over the flush closets and basins in closing the house as this prevents the escape of sewer gas into 1t.
 Bits of tissue paper shaken in ba- by's nursing bottle clean it instantly and better than almost anything: This leaves a shine that nothing else so simple will.
 The heat radiator ,or soapstone) from a fireless cooker proves boon on ironing day, if used for a sadiron stand. The irons hold their heat twice as long.
 Cabbage contains a great deal of sulphur, and for this reason frequent- ly- causes 1atulence. Caulidower which is of the same family, is more easily digested.
 Honey is excellent in nearly all throat and lung affections. For a sharp tickling throat cough, a tea spoonful taken every few moments will quickly allay the irritation.
 After making sandwiches, place them in an earthenware vessel or crock and cover tightly. Set the ves- sef in pan of cold water, and sand wiches will keep moist for hours.
 A common floor mop soaked in coal oil makes good dust absorber Soak the mop thoroughly, after which hang it out in the air for three or four days. It will then be ready for

A VOLCANO THAT
 BECAME A LAKE.

Unique among the natural wonders of America is the lake in Crater Lake National Park in Oregon, which is described in a publication entitled Geological History of Crater Lake, just issued by the Department of the the rocky rim of the lake, looks across it's limpid waters to the cliffs beyond stands where once the molten lava of Mount Mazaha boiled and seeth- ed in its efforts to find an outlet, for Crater Lake is all that remains of a lofty summit high above the crest of the Cascade Range.
 Before the Cascade Range existed the region now included in the State of Oregon was great lava plateau that extended from the Rocky Noun tains to the present Coast Range. Gradually notwithstanding forces became operative; the surface of the plateau was arched and there rose the great mountain system which is now known as the Cascade Range. With the hardening of the crust the cen ters of eruptions became fewer until they were confined to a few high mountains that were built up by the flows of molten lava. In this way were created Hood, Rainier, and Ma zama, from whose sides and lofty summits streams of lava poured
 
 Rainier still lift their snowy caps to the clouds and fling a defiant cha1- lenge to the mountaineer to scale their steep, ice-coyered slopes. Mazama alone is gone, engulfed in the earth from which it came. Tn what is left of it's caldera lies Crater Lake.
 Mount Mazama in its prime rose to a height of over 14O00 feet above the sea- Mount Scott, which towers above Crater Lake on the east, was only a minor cone on the slope of Mount Mazama The portion of the noun tain that has been destroyed was equal in size to Mount Washington in New Hampshire and had a volume of + cubic miles.
 From the crest of the rim surround. ing the lake. the traveller beholds 20 miles of unbroken cliffs which range from 800 to nearly 1000 feet in height The clear waters of the lake reflect the vivid colors of the surrounding walls and whether in the soft glow of early morning, in the glare of the monday sun. or in the rosy hues of the dying day, the view is one of awe inspiring grandeur and beauty.
 This publication contains detail- ed account of the formation of this wonderful work of nature. It is we'll illustrated by photographs and is written in nontechnical language so that it may be readily understood by the reader who has not the advan- tage of scientific training.
