HINTS WORTH KNOWING.

Here is a suggestion for fixing a
tainly invaluable. Smooth off the
floor, filling all the cracks with filler
or putty, and then paint it with a coat
of sodium silicate Soluble glass;, the
same that is used to preserve eggs.
1t will also preserve floors and save
the back of the woman who has to
scrub and clean them. The water
glass will dry almost Immediately, and
three coats should be put on, one right
after the other. If you wish to change
the color of your floor, add yellow
ochre or Vandyke brown water col
ors, not oil. Try on a board until
the color desired is obtained When
the paint is dry, cover it with a coat
OF three parts boiled linseed oil and
one part Japan dryer, mixed. Any
kind of floor or old furniture may
be treated in this way.
Apply raw white egg to a cut; 1t
will keep out foreign matter and allay
the pain.
For cough, roasted lemon is both
healing and pleasant to take Roast
the lemon carefully until thoroughly
hot, then squeeze the juice into a
cup containing a few tablespoonfuls
of sugar. Take a spoonful whenever
the cough is troublesome

A lump of lime kept in the fruit

When peeling onions. a pair of auto

Keep list of easily prepared dishes

no time need be lost.
Sip a paper bag over the egg beater

THERE'S POETRY IN PIE.

There is probably no pie more gem
orally liked than pumpkin, when it is
we'll made and properly seasoned. A
cup Of sifted pumpkin, or at most a
cup and quarter will make a good
sized pie. One or two eggs, a pint of
milk, sugar, ginger, little cinnamon
or cloves, if one likes a dark pie, with
few drops of lemon extract gives a
good flavor. The richer the milk the
better the pie. Of course.
Pineapple Pie.-Make a good rich
.curst, add the pineapple with enough
sugar to sweeten, put a teaspoonful
of flour sifted over and then place the
top crust. Bake as usual. Long, slow
baking brings out the flavor of pine
apple as well as ordinary apple.
Cornstarch Pie.-Scald a pint Of
milk, add two tablespoonful of corn
starch, the beaten yolks of two eggs,
pinch Of salt and a quarter of a cup
OF sugar; boil, then pour into crust.
Cover with a meringue made from the
whites with two tablespoonfuls of
sugar Brown in oven. Flavor with
any desired flavoring
Cream Pie.-Bake a rich crust, and
when cool fill with sweetened whipped
cream favored with vanilla. Just be-
fore serving dot with bits of red Jelly
Sour Cream Pie.-Take a cupful of
sugar, CHOPPED raisins and sour cream;
add one egg well beaten, one-half
teaspoonful each of cinnamon, nutmeg
and salt. a fourth of a teaspoon Of
cloves and a teaspoonful of vinegar
Bake with two crusts.
Apple Custard.-Add a cup of sugar
to a cupful of grated apple, two eggs
we'll beaten, one cup of sweet cream
and the grated rind of lemon. Pour
into a pie plate lined with pastry, and
bake.
Any fruit may be put into a baked
shell, covered with egg white and
baked, making very attractive pie.

understands exactly why one chimney

chimney that looks just like it will
have no draft at all. Some chimneys

others with paratively mall open

Some of the best looking chimneys
are the poorest in this respect. Some

Strange reason for attempting sui

Schultz, a handsome young man at
Versailles, France, not long since. He
said he was so distressed on seeing
that he caused jealousy between two

suicide by drowning, in order to turn
their discussions into a common grief.

Rheumatic Blood
is Whole Story
Wonderful Specific for Sci
atica, Lumbago, and a
Cure for Dreaded Ar
ticular Rheuma-
tiSm.

There Is a host Of pills, powders, tab
lets and what.not for rheumatism, but
they all lack the first essential to being
a natural medicine. To begin with, rheu-
matsm is simply a name given to desig
nate a variety Of pains, and can only be
reached by irrigating the entire blood sup
ply with a naturally assimilative anti
dote. True, the pains may be eased with
narcotics or the acids may be neutralized
for the time being with other acids. But
these merely temporize and do not even
lead to a cure. There is but one stand
ard rheumatism remedy, and it reflects
the best thought of the day. 1t is pre-
pared in the great Swift Laboratory in
Atlanta, Ga, and sold in all drug stores
under the name of S. S. S. at sl.o0
bottle
Starvation has been advocated by many
as a cure for rheumatism, and yet S. S. S.
accomplishes in fact what faddists pro-
claim in theory and without the punish
ment Of starvation. Hot springs and
sweating are often recommended, but
S. S. S. does all that is expected of these
expensive and weakening methods.
1t is conceded by the closest students
of the subject that rheumatism is caused
in most cases by an acid condition Of the
blood and aggravated by the remedies
commonly used for relief. In other cases
rheumatism is the result of nerve depres-
sion in still others it is the effect Of
some scrofulous blood condition, having
been treated with mercury, iodides, arse
mic and other poisonous mineral drugs.
The recoveries of all these types Of
rheumatism by the use of S. S. S. is a
wonderful tribute to the natural efficacy
Of this remarkable medicine, for 1t Is as
simulated just as naturally, just as spe-
officially. and just as we'll ordained as the
most acceptable, most palatable and most
readily digested food. Do not fail to
get bottle of S. S. S. today. You will
be astonished at the results. II your
rheumatism is OF such a nature that you
would like to consult a great specialist
confdentialiy, write to The Swift Specihc

STOMACH SOUR? GOT

"Pape's Diapepsln' VIII Make Your
DisOrdered Stomach Feel Fine in
Five Minutes. Time IT.!

II what you just ate is souring on
your stomach or lies like a lump Of
lead, refusing to digest, or you belch
gas and eructate sour, undigested
food, or have a feeling of dizziness,
heartburn, fullness, nausea, bad taste
in mouth and stomach headache
this is indigestion.
full case of Pape's Diapepsin
costs only fifty cents and will thor
oughly cure your out of order stom-
ach, and leave sufficient about the
house in case some one else in the
family may suffer from stomach
trouble or Indigestion.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula plainly printed on these
fifty-cent cases then you will under
stand why dyspeptic trouble of all
kinds must go, and why they usually
relieve sour, out of order stomachs
or indigestion in five inmates. Dia-
nepsin is harmless and tds.as like
candy, though each dose contains
plwer sufficient to digest and pre-
pare for assimilation into the blood
ali the food you eat; besides, it makes
you go to the table with 4 healthy
al petite; but, what will please you
most, is that you will feel that your
stomach and intestines are clean and
II esh, and you will not need to re-
sort to laxatives or liver pills for bill
iCrsness or constipation.
This city will have many Diapepsia
cranks, as some people will call
them, but you will be cranky about
this splendid stomach preparation,
too, if you ever try a little for indi-
gestion or gastritis or any other
stomach misery.
Get some now, this minute, and for
ever rid yourself of stomach trouble
and indigestion.
