Cleaning Your Rugs.

THE vacuum cleaner is really q boon to
the oriental rug. The nap Is thor
oughly cleaned without being pulled out.
as 1t is sometimes pulled out when rugs
are beaten. Even q vacuum cleaner
should be used on hne rugs with care
and 1t should be rolled up and down the
rug with the nap rather than across It.
1t is. Of course desirable to have orien-
tai rugs perfectly clean. The idea that
they look older or more artistic when
they are soiled is absurd. But clean them
carefully. Once year wash them with
wool soap and warm water and dry them
evenly, so that they will lie fiat and
smoothly on the floor. And always sweep
them gently. though thoroughly. In the
winter. when there il snow. sprinkle It
over them when you are brushing them
and watch the colors regain marvellous
freshness.
The autumn il q good time to repair
rugs. II there are moth holes In oriental
rugs, have them mended by q profession
al. If the fringe Is ragged and rough.
trim it evenly. II the selvedge edges are
worn, overland them before they become
really ragged.
Careful attention prolongs the life Of a
rug as nothing else can prolong 1t. The
ordinary wear and tear of years will not
bring about half as many bad results as
will the neglect Of a single month or
season.

Picked Peach Mangoes.

pEACH manages are one OF the most
l delicious OF all fruit pickles. To pre-
pare them select ripe, freestone peaches
and put them in brine. strong enough to
float an egg, for forty-eight hours. Then
soak them In clear. cold water for TWEEN
ty minutes. Dry them and remove a
small section from each peach. Do this
with sharp silver knife and bruise the
flesh OF the peach as little as possible In
doing it.
Remove the pit through this hole.
Sprinkle the cavity where the pit was
with celery seed and fill 1t with freshly
grated horseradish moistened with vine
gar. Then replace the piece taken from
the peach and sew 1t In place with strong
cotton or linen thread. Stand the peaches
In glass jars.
Count the fruit and for every sixty
peaches boil a gallon Of vinegar, a pound
Of brown sugar and quarter of a tea
spoonful OF cayenne pepper. Pour this
spiced vinegar. boiling hot. over the fruit,
In the jars. These s'ould be standing
In q kettle OF boiling water. which has
been brought to this point gradually.
When the fruit and juice are cold, tie
them up or seal them. They will be ready
to eat In ten days or two weeks. but. OF
course, they are better the longer they
stand.

Tee cream making Is such an easy
matter nowadays. when we have Ice
shavers and easily cranked freezers
and various other devices to make 1t
easy. that frozen desserts are considered
an all-the-year-round delicacy. But IN
summer they are a necessity They are
really pleasanter to make than hot.
cooked desserts. They are Infinitely
pleasanter to eat
From the point OF view of health
surely an ice or a frozen cream. even
II II does retard digestion. Is better than
quantities of oid-time desserts-steamed
buildings. pies and other heavy. rich
sweets.
Frozen eggnog is as full Of flavor as
Its unfroZen cousin and Is little out OF
the ordinary. To make 1t heat pint
of rich milk Beat the yolks Of four
eggs and slowly pour the milk over
them. Then return the mixture to the fire
until it thickens. stirring all the time. a
bit OF cinnamon and sugar to taste
should then be added. Remove from the
fire, cool little. add cupful of brandy
and the wel-beaten whites of four eggs,
cool thoroughly and freeze.
\
Frozen peaches are seasonable. Select
either white or yellow peaches-any sort
that Is full Of juice and flavor. Skin
them and push them through a strainer.
Make q strip by boiling two cupfuls OF
water with one cupful Of sugar for five
minutes. Cool 1t and add the pulp Of the
peaches.
II they need additional flavor add
orange or lemon juice Freeze. and when
you remove the dasher add two cupfuls
of Stifny beaten cream. Pack and allow
1t to stand q couple of hours before serv-
ing.
Sherbets and frappes are much less
heating than ice cream-which, although
II is cooling at the time it Is eaten, re-
quires q good deal OF heat for its d.
gestion.

could wish. To make 1t, boil pound Of

IF you want some fine vinegar. pure in

honey. Add pound and a half OF
strained honey to q gallon Of water. Then
keep 1t ir q warm place for a few
months and II will be ready. II It is not
strong enough add more honey. Three
pounds Of honey to a gallon of water is

Men In praising a. woman whose

to speak Of her as many women In one.
Loving her was like loving a dozen

The maid OF all WORK hustled and hur-

A little sugar may be given to healthy
bird occasionally. Apples and other acids
should never be given. The only food
that is needed is good seed, green oc-
casionally-plantain, chickweed leaf Of
celery or lettuce-and a little cuttle-fish
bone to bite on. This bone supplies lime
which the birds need.
Take trouble to get sort of seed your
bird likes. Some birds will grow thin and
disagreeable on a seed they do not like.
So look about until you find a seed that
satisfies your bird. II he really likes 1t
he will open every grain in his seed cup
If he doesn't like 1t he will pick it over
and not touch the seeds he does not like
even though he may be hungry.
Give the bird sunshine from time to
time keep him clean, keep his cage clean
give him a green at least once a week,
keep a piece of cuttle-fish bone in his
cage. let him fly and play with you once
in a while. don't expose him to a draught,
and never give him any acid-and you
will have a happy, healthy and songful
bird on your hands.
