HUMBLE PIE USURY.
By Ruth Cameron.

To be usurious and to exact more
| than ones just debt in a money matter
is legal crime.
Every one knows that
But how many people. I wonder. real
ize that to exact more than ones just
return in other kinds of debts is
moral crime? 1 am thinking especially
of the people who demand more than
pie for offenses which they have suf-
fered
DO you grasp my meaning?
Well, then. let's be concrete. Say you
are fortunate enough to have a friend
and your friend is unfortunate enough
to have offended you She has hastily
said or done something which, in her
calmer moments. she admits to herself
was not just right.
Now. as soon as she comes to this
| conclusion she tacitly asks your par
don by being especially nice to you.
She brings you some interesting bit of
information which she thinks you will
! enjoy. She offers to do some little
| admiring some possession of yours.
And all in vain. Under the sunshine
of all her Establishments you coldly re-
fuse to melt. You have grievance
ana you Will not give IL up until you
have your pound of humble pie.
Being human, she finds it much hard
! err to say, Il was wrong, l am sorry"
| than to act it. But finally she screws
her courage to the sticking point and
| speaks out her apology.
| OF course, it hurts her; the words
| stick coming up and the humble pie
| sticks going down, just then, perhaps,
she deserves some hurt in return for
| the hurt she gave. That is her just
| eXpiation.
| But as soon as she has done this she
has put the burden of healing the mis-
understanding on your shoulders. II
| is your turn to act now. If you had
forgiven her after her tacit apology
you would have been merciful. But
you weren't that. Now if you forgive
her you will simply be just. But If
you fail to forgive you will be both
unmerciful and unjust You Will be
exacting more than your due payment
for your cherished grievance in terms
of humble pie The burden of wrong
has passed from her shoulders to
yours.
Again and again l have seen breaches
which were very hard to close opened
| in this way between dear friends and
even between members of a family.
| BY and by the usurious one sees his
| mistake and tries to make 1t up, but
| by this time the original offender feels
that he has a grievance in the injustice
of his friend. and there are two raw
J spots to be healed.
| 1t is a very fine thing to be merciful
! in such matters, to be big enough to
accept the first tacit apology. But
even those of us who are not big
enough to be merciful can surely be
just And let's not forget that When
we fail to be, we at once take the bur-
den of wrong on our own shoulders
and become sinners instead of sinned
| against
And truly it's much pleasanter to be
sinned against.

How to Use a Broom.
BY ELIZABETH LEE.

Sweeping day has lost it's terrOrs for
the woman who can afford to buy d
vacuum cleaner or even to hire one, but
many may be SO situated that they are
unable to do ether. and this class will
probably endeavOr to find out all the i'm
provements along the old methods of
sweeping with a view to lessening their
labors. TO begin with, liberal quantity
of rags and busters should be on hand,
and if one takes a scrap basket and goes
through each room picking up scraps,
waste matches bits of paper, and SO on,
the rooms will be less formidable when
one gets ready for the sweeping. No mat
ter if there is scrap basket: in every
room, the occupants do not always use it.
The carpet sweeper is really the best
thing for carpets in a general way, but
of course they require a more thorough
sweeping occasionally, which must be
done with broom.
Some persons think the sweeping will
be more effective il force is used upon
the broom. so as to dig into the carpet.
but this is mistake. The right way
to hold broom is to keep the handle
nclining "a little forward, and to sweep
lightly rather than heavily, because
all the dust is on the surface. To sweep
hard will send the dust into the pile of
the carpet
There many good articles upon the
market for keeping down the dust when
sweeping, but in my experience there is
nothing better than old newspapers torn
up, dampened and sprinkled over the car
pet. Tea leaves also are good, but news
papers are always on hand. Some house
keepers salt. This undoubtedly fresh
ems the carpet, but the salt is apt to sink
in, and when camp weather comes the
salt gives" This causes the carpet to
rot. Better go over with rag wrung
from salt and water, IN my opinion. than
to sprinkle the salt. A little ammonia and
warm water will also brighten the col
| ors in the carpet.
If the broom is dipped into hot water
and then well shaken before sweeping
this will help to keep down the dust, be-
sides making the broom last longer
The general way of sweeping IS to begin
at one end and sweep toward the door,
but the better plan is to begin at one
corner and then go all along the edges
of the room sweeping toward the center.
When this is reached the dust can be
taken up In the pan and any remain. ng
is no use or sense in taking the dust from
one end of the room to the other
After sweeping the broom should be
plunged into a pail of hot soapsuds and
afterward in cold water This will tough
en- the straws and prolong the life of
the broom. 1t is a good plan to do this
with a new broom before using it at ar
1t is generally supposed a coarse broom
will last longer than fine one, but this
is not so. The coarse straw breaks quick
err. and 1t refuses to gather the smaller
particles of dust which fine straws will.
OF course, pick up. The color should
be light green. If straWs fall out when
the broom is shaken refuse to buy it, for
1t is not a reliable make

Diverse Styles in Hats.

Millinery of the moment shows a wide
diversity of style and shape. since the
large picture hats, half hidden under
mass of ostrich feathers. and surmountcd,

enjoying an equal share of fashions

in straw or silk, which can boast nothing
at all in the way of trimming beyond
a couple of mercury wings. perhaps. and
a bow of ribbon.
Between these two extremes there are
hats of every description, carried out not
only In straw. but in various materials,
such as lawn, batiste or spotted muslin.
1t is true that these fabrics were looked
upon at one time as suitable only for in
fantile headgear, but they are accepted
now as suitable for grown-up wearers.
