For cleaning berries, or any small

This will not crush the fruit and is more
quickly done.
To clean rugs. After the usual beat.
ing, prepare a pail Of sawdust mixed
with one quart Of gasoline; brush thor.
ougbly into the rugs with an ordinary
scrubbing brush and they will look like
new.

Drinking Water In the Summer
Camp.

In a good many summer camps, It is
absolutely necessary to boil all water
which is to be used for drinking. That
much Is easy. But oftentimes the
larger problem is to keep enough cooled
ready for use. Especially is this SO
when the ice box space is limited.
We have handled the question in this
way. From the druggist We obtained
three glass bottles which held about two
gallons each. You know the kind with
large mouths and glass shoppers. Do
not get square bottles, as they would be
much harder to keep clean and sweet.
A large clean cloth is soaked 10 cold
water and wound several times about the
bottle. Then the water, which was left
standing in the kettle in which it was
boiled until partially cooled, is poured
into the bottle and this set into basin
containing about six inches of cold
water. II these are placed In q shady
spot, the water will soon become very
cold.
The cloths and bottles must be washed
out every day or so, but the whole seems
very little work, once the process has
become part of the mornings regular
duties.
Water has often been carried In q
Mason fruit jar, wound in q wet cloth,
when going out for picnics. II the cloth
is kept damp, the water will always be
cool.

oanb,ers' Gains.

The fact that 'no ono wins ut gambl-
ing" noted by Mr.. Nevill In Eight Come,
Light Co." a. by all similar historians.
Even the famous Jack Mytton, whose
commendable practice 1t was to smash
all the gambling apparatus and thrash
tue proprietor Of any club where he sus-
pec,ed foul play, had endless disasters
with bis winnings. He had broken the
banks of two we'll known London bells
on one occasion and was driving home
with large sum OF notes. While count
ing these be went to sleep and found on
waking that several thousand pounds
worth of them had been blown out Of the
window.
But then Jack Mytton had an advan.
tage over the most modern gamblers IN
that he was nearly always drunk when
he played. I remember myself encoun-
tering man who was just sober enough
to pass the janitoIs at Monte Carlo, who
borro we'd Q louis from me and put 1t CD
a number, which of course turned up.
Having soon won something over 1000
pounds, he consented to depart; an
example which, 1t il needless to add,
was followed by the 1900 pounds in the
course of the next day or two. An old
croupier at Monte Carlo with q marvel
Gus memory for faces told me once that
he himself had never seen big winner
who kept his winnings for more than
two years.
Casanova and d. Entragues once began
a game OF piquet for franc points with
the further understanding that the first
man to rise from the table should lose
1000 francs. The game began at 3
o'clock one afternoon; at 8 O'Clock next
morning the players drank some choc".
late without stopping tho play; at 4
o'clock that afternoon they had some
soup; at 8 next morning d'Entragues
was $50 dazed that he could hardly
shuttle the cards." On attempting to
drink the next bowl of soup d. Entragues
fell down in faint, upon which Casa.
nova "gave half dozen louis to the
croupier, leisurely put the gold he had
won in his pockets and strolled out to
chemists, where he bought a mild
emetic"
One famous devotes to hazard left an
Injunction in his will that his bones
should be made into dice, and bis skin
into covering for the boxes.
Another rather gruesome story 10 OF an
execution at the Old Bailey when two
men were being hung and a young noble
man won hundred guineas in . bet
"that the shorter of the two would give
the last kick" The Count de Buexo-
burg's ride from London to Edinburgh
in four days with his face turned toward
the horses tail makes a good story, as
does the wager of Lord Oxford, an ances.
tor of the authors, that drove of geese
would beat drove of turkeys in race
from Norwich to Londoa. The geese
won by keeping on the road at a steady
pace, while the turkeys flew to roost

Parents, Read this Letter!

have letter from prominent Maine
clergyman in regard to sickness of one of
his children from which quote as follows:
"Our two-year-old baby was very sick
a, two different times and we came near
losing her. We had the best doctors,
but they did not know what the trouble
was. In the first sickness she had high fever
for several days, and the doctor said it acted
like scarlet fever, but a. there were no other
cases he did not think it could be. After
wards she broke out in ra,h all over her
body. The last sickness was similar and
the doctor was puzzled. She was very
nervous and we feared we would lose her.
Your DR.. True's Elixir was recommended,
and after two days use she passed several
worms from two to three inches In length,
and is now we'll and strong and sleeps at
nights withoutfretting, tossing and starting
in fright as she did formerly"
/ will be glad to furnish this clergy
mans name and address to anyone who
cares to write to me.
N.B.-True's Elixir is the best known
remedy for all stomach and bowel troubles.
Purely vegetable, pleasant to take and
entirely harmless. Expels stomach worms
