awhile I have read, the letters and found them interesting and helpful.
 I am sending in a few helps>for the housekeepers.
 A tablespoonful of tuTpentine boiled with your clothes will greatly aid the whitening process.
 One tablespoon of ammonia to a teacup of water applied with a rag will clean silver or gold jewelry per fectIy.
 Clear boiling water will remove tea stains; pour the water through the stain and thus prevent it spreading over the fabric.
 Here are a few good recipes for jelly:
 Grab Apple JeiIy-Boil apples in wa ter enough to cover. till very soft. Turn into 8 cloth and strain, measure juice and allow three-quarters of a pound of sugar to a pint of juice. When juice boils up. skim thoroughly, heat sugar in oven and add as syrup boils up after sEIimming. Boil gently 20 or 30 minutes, put in glasses; when cool lay paper over top and paste a paper over it.
 Grape JelIy-Boii green grapes in cold water till tender; take out and strain, run through a sieve: add their weight in sugar and boil 15 minutes. Set in proper dishes to cool.
 This is enough for this time.

HOW TO PREVENT DYsENrERY.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: AS we have cool nights and hot weather in the middle of the day. which makes it ideal dysentery wealth CT, 1 thought I might be of some use if I should write what I know to pre- vent the disease.
 A friend of mine after having sev- eral attacks of the disease, asked the could take that would prevent it. The honest doctor said: Yes, get some Turkish rhubarb, and every day take a little"
 She did so and never had another attack, although this was several years ago.
 I was called to watch with a very old lady who had the dysentery and the doctor said she could not possibly live till morning.
 I said I would go if they would let me have all of the laudanum and cam phor that I wanted. It was furnished and when she was in distress would mix up a little half and half, wet a rag and lay on where she was lr pain and let it lay on until she would have another attack, when I would mix up 3, new supply and with q new rag go over the job again.
 When the doctor came in the morn ing he was much surprised to see her so much improved and told me If would come and watch one more night his patient would get well. I com- piled and she lived many years to praise me for my faithful service.

A VISION
By Pelly Peppermint

Scarcely had this view passed fFeIR sight Wheh tlfere af5peaFea ss f6iig F6eiri teWara which peerIle eaffyl6g Ihany yellow Bs4l66as seemed moving. FleFa fancy Work department. Here tie central figure pfgvea ts be, A4ihty Ne: 1. She dlsplayea very finely tatted bag Which bere the first prize blaeaFd. In her haBa AHI3ty held 8 large ledger in which she Was plaainE the names gf those whe were anxious te learn te de tatting.
 The surroundings changed again and F1efa F'eete found herself viewing the grandstana. There she saw Lucy Aeern. Reuben's Wife, Bsecy. MHgginB, Pa, Fannie, Eiisa Jane< Sweet .Lavena Crimson Rambler, Joseph Doe. Azaieay Rambler, Enid and the EditgT and they were all Wavtng yellow balloons and shouting: 'fHurrah for Papa's Boy and the red earl"
 "They've won the raceI They've won the racel" cried Flora excitedly. "trhia is interesting. Wonder what and whom I'll see next said Flora Foote.
 Above the trolley like buzzing of the machine could be heard the voice of someone in distress.
 NO! Nol 1 can't find her. I let the Young Maine Lovers take her and they passed her on to Etta Barber. She allowed Clara of Canterbury to just hold her for a minute; Balsam Fir claimed her. and then Married and Happy took her in charge. Where she is now I don't know"
 Two individuals now came into sight. They were discussing the rela- tive values of Wintergreen and Pep permint.
 ''No!" snapped the younger of the two Peppermint is much to be pre- ferred''
 You are mistaken said the other, for according to the Doctors Daugh- ter Wintergreen is"
 Just then the Guide suddenly ap- peaTed, calling out: Come, all of you, and see where Wee Peggy is now!"
 A wild scramble followed. The Guide went first. with Glenwood, Aunt Sere- na, Faye Verna, Centennial Square and Betsy Bobbett close seconds Into the baby show they went pellmell. There smiling joyfully sat Theoda, holding Wee Peggy, who had been unanimously voted to be the prize baby.
 One more picture came before the interested sightseer. Around long table containing numberless loaves of bread and cake and countless jars of pickles and preserves stood all the sent recipes to the Corner. Hurrying about trying to decide who were en- titled to the prizes were Great Grandma. The Dreamer. Patty Emer- aid, Pink Rose, Black Pansy, Biddy and Goidenrod
 Just at this important moment the machine made a, whizZjng sound, the pedestal revolved slowly and Flora Foote found herself at the door which ten minutes before she had entered and a grttf voice said:
 Fifty cents. If you please, ma am"
 That was hne," said she, "but I should like to know who received those food prizes"

School has opened once more and want to make just few suggestions in regard >So dressing the children.
 A little boy was made unhappy by the taunts Of his school fellows be- cause his coat was homemade and had no pockets The coat was of good ma terial, neat and warm, but the poor child was so ashamed he had to be driven to school.
 4 pretty white blouse trimmed with hamburg made some less fortunate boys call the little owner "bapy" to his great modification.
 Children are cruelty frank, and it is a sin 10 make your child suffer and grow desperate and learn to hate school and his play-fellOws because you like to see him daintily dressed. If the tauntS are because you cannot dress him as well as the other children. it is VOLT duty to see the teacher, and If need be the parents, and tell them frankly that you do your best, and tell them just how unhappy the taunts make the child, for no little child can do good work and suffer insult from the other children.
 Pernaps you think 10 make your child modest by dressing her plainly: but ii she is not dressed enough like the others to keep them from making run of her she will grow up shy and odd. or bold and defiant No woman
 
 as to see smiles and whispers among the people she is with and few grown people are as Out-spohen as children. l once attended a. chiIdren's concert where all of the little girls but two were dressed in white, or pale shades of soft thin material Two wore dark winter dresses of nice wool goods. and one was so shy and i'll at ease that her recitation was a failure. and the other was so bold and loud-spol1en that strangers took her for bad girl: but ] really think if these girls had been dressed like the others they would have appeared as well as the majority.
 4 mother has a perfect right to be odd herself eff she is willing to take the risk of having her children ashamed of her as they grow oIder). but she has no right to spoil her chiI- dren's lives by making them odd
 know what l am talking about for l was an "odd' child and only God knows the suffering of such. I speak simply to save others from pain and to help them live the true. full lives that only those equal to their fellows can live.

 Mount this pedestal, Madame, and I'll proceed to unfold to you what Is to happen during tomorrow. the mid de day of tho Norwich fair So Flora mounted and found herself revolving in midair.
 Darker and darker grew the room. In arose before the eyes of the s1ghtseer the outlines of the Norwich fair grounds A large tent beautifully draped with yellow came into the fore ground Above the entrance swung a sign reading: "WeIcome, Cornerites! Leave all baggage here" Flora's eyes opened widely and more Wldely-for packed from ground to tent top were pillars of lunch bas- kets, boxes and strapped packages, each bearing a yellow tag.
 Why, the whole Social Corner must be in attendance!" gasped the aston ished Flora. The poor Editor! What a responsibility he has. Who are those two in there with him? O. Jim and Nat Glad there's someone to assist him"

 It was Peggy Anne and Wee Peggy and with them came Cherisette, Papa's Boy, lola. Hettie Marie. x. Y. C.. and Elizabeth.
 Strange to say. this scene grew dinner and dinner until at length Flora Foote was in utter darkness, Finally the gloom broke. disclosing the animal section of the fair grounds, There stood Nat, proudly pointing out to Maine Lover Ma.

A PREMIUM No-Eea CAKE.

Dear Editor and Sisters of the So cial Corner: I have been a reader of The Bulletin a number of years, also Of the Social Corner from the very first. I find the letters very interest ing and encouraging. This is my first letter, not becanse ] have not wanted to write, but I could not get up the courage and feared 1t might get into the waste basket. Hope l will be wei come.
 Now that eggs are high thouht I would send in q recipe for
 No Egg calee-One cup of brown sugar, heaping tablespoons of lard. 1 cup of sour milk, 1 teaspoon of soda dissolved in a very little hot water, 1 teaspoon each of cloves and cinnamon, and 1-2 teaspoon of nutmeg, 1-2 cup of raisins and 1-2 cup of entrants; salt. Roll the fruit in flour, add flour to make as thick as common fruit cake. This is fine and keeps well. It took first prize at the county fair three years ago.
 Hope the sisters will try 1t and report.
 Am sorry I did mot write before so that I could have worn g. yellow rib bon to the fair, as that is my faVorlte color. 8
 Kindest wishes to all.

SOCIAL CORNER POEMS.
Tell Somebody.

Let me tell you something, comrade, That I've learned along the way: If the blessings that life brings you With each swiftly passing day Sesm as hardly worth the counting, Since so small are they-so few You can double them by sharing
 With the cOmrade next to you. Have you heard a kind word spoken To another in his need2 Ten your neighbor all about it.
 And the little, simple deed VIII make warm your heart in telling, And the hearts of those who hear Will be giaddened by the Knowledge And their lives will share it's cheer. O. the little wayside blessings
 That we Squander every day! If we shared them with each other They would glorify the way They would grow, as meath the sun
 shine
 Flowers Tn summer days unfold. Til each one of them had blossomed Into blessings manifold. -Eben E. Rexford, in American Maga-
 zine.
